I'm Using Crossbow!

I'M USING CROSSBOW!
THE ROM IS WIZARD
BUT IT CAN RUN ON MY PROPHET
IT ALSO HAVE MANY BUGS
FOR EXAMPLE THE BATTERY ...
, AND THE SOFTKEY IS opposite
......

how did you do it?
could you post some screenshots?

Guys, I advise caution when doing this stuff.
Crossbow is an unreleased rom, and experienced guys have bricked devices installing it. I advise that those of a weak disposition or pregnant don't attempt this until there's further confirmation from the foolhardy.
V

when is crossbow release date?
now i see it can be installed on almost every wm5 device. i believe that it just needs some minor tweaks and bugfixes to make it widely available.
well i hope some smart guy will fix it out.
peace!

today i red wm6 news from here http://www.neowin.net/index.php?act=view&id=37208
no big changes it is just like a new WM5 skin and icons

You are wrong.
It's just that the prophet and the wizard are 99% compatible (99% same pcb)
We are lucky that a wizard rom has leaked out!

Hello. I am a xda neo user in Hong Kong. I would love to upgrade to Crossbow for my xda neo too, especially I love CHINESE ROM !!! Is it traditional chinese or simplified chinese? Can you post the ROM file here and list the step-by-step procedures of how to upgrade?
Thanks!

"we have the rom but we will not give it to you"
nice one

I do know Chinese.
Let me give all of you some clues (i have read throught the chinese forum)
According to the one who made this rom, he/she is using a japanese rom to make this rom, so there's no original WWE rom.
However, the rom maker hasn't said anything about the rom, where does it come from, nor any official details
That's all i could help.

that quote was from chineese site
I want this rom too, but I can't download even chineese version

Looks like it's a problem of my translator.
Here's another version of that quote:
Above the WWE version does not have the question, but as a result of the well known reason, I cannot put, also please download my ROM friend not to have to arrive on XDA to issue! Thanks everybody the support

wtf is "WWE version does not have the question"
Someone who can read chineese please translate the blue text on their site.

that if you do not release wwe, wwe were not very difficult to convert it back, so there would still be the wwe

read on the site :
TO ALL friends come from XDA: there's no original WWE version at all, and because of M$ pay more attention to XDA, another reason is that I have no more experience to make a really running WWE rom, I have to say sorry to u. BUT I guess you will get a great WWE soon

Still no success - OS don't even tries to boot.
We need someone who has more expirience with modules - helmi, midget... mamaich even
I'll try to fix this damn ROM tomorrow - now I need a working phone

Latest rom for SDA?

what is the latest rom for teh sda/tornado/etc... my wm6 does not work too well and would want wm5 that is stable fast and can do anything... no need for mods to make it work right...

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TO4V7A0O

Thanks for this! I need to downgrade back to WM5 as well

That's too bad WM6 doesn't work well. I've been tempted to upgrade my SDA, I guess I'd better not.

I disagree -- WM6 does work well on the SDA. Using "Karhoe's Step-by-step pictorial guide to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6" referenced in this thread, I was very successful upgrading my SDA from WM5 to WM6. I've got everything I've tried so far working so I'm a happy camper!!!

I agree, I also have an SDA, and while I've had to play around with a few things to get it just right, I'm in a nice happy place. If you want a rom that's got most of the knicks worked out, try the Perfect English Edition Rom here.

Hi there,
I downloaded the file, but bevor I update my german SDA (with WM2003se) I want to ask if I can switch the language to german? Is this possible, and is this version (I downloaded) with Windows Mobile 5 ?
Tahnks for answers!

don't ever bother to upgrade because your device is a typhoon/feeler/amadeus variant which is running wm2003se. this ROM is for tornado variants only which is running wm5. however you can still upgrade it to wm5 or wm6. read here.

Thanks, but if read over 12 pages in this forum, but there are no instructions how to upgrade to wm5 could you send me a link (PM) ?
Thanks

Perhaps most things work well, but there is a post by Karhoe about WiFi not working. I use WiFi more than anything else. I can tolerate some bugs, but any that causes problems with WiFi will probably cause me a lot of grief.
I will probably try WM6 soon anyway. Grief or not, I can't help but upgrade to the newest version of everything even if it causes more problems than it solves.

I have allready ported the wwe, and made roms. But I wish to make one with this build in norwegian too

If you think you can do it, follow instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334680
and dump the rom from your device.
And upload to rapidshare (www.rapidshare.com)
If you could do this, I would be a happy man
And even better, If you have access to a norwegian RUU (rom upgrade utility) for your kaiser (Im not sure, but maybe you can get it from htc e-club. http://member.htc.com/member/login.aspx?fm=eu&ln=en
register if you havnt allready, and see if there is a download
other option is contact support via email and ask for a ruu, cause your device has locked, and you need to flash it back
any of theese would be greatly appreciated

If you look in the windows folder of all Tytn II rom there are some cabs that are installed on a hardreset. One is named configure_key.cab
Could that cab install the country specific keymappings?
sorry posted my answer in wrong thread

Sorry but I only got errors when trying to get the info you wanted.

There isn't RUU for new devices on htc club. Only for upgrade when htc deploy new functionality on the same version of windows mobile (as gps update for P3600 Trinity) or new version of windows mobile.

complex problem with wm update

Hello,
i have been reading through this forum for a while and gained a lot of knowledge, thank u!
i am from germany, and i bought my samsung sgh-i780 in the US.
now i want to update my windows mobile to a newer version, but i am having trouble doing so:
the phones ID is: DXHD1
i am using the phone in english language just as i received it. but it seems like the phone has been imported to the US from eastern asia ?? right??
the official samsung page "http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/index.jsp" doesnt work for me because my code isnt accepted in UK (i dont want a different language other than english or german)
what am i supposed to do now, in order to update my phone to a new wm version?
i read through the forums but i didnt find a fitting answer
sorry for my bad english, im not a native speaker

forget this way!
first get official pdxib1(or how irt is spelled!) using the link provided in previous post!
and then edit it as decribed unter the same link!
i use xvi32 as hexeditor =)
tell me if this leads you to succes!

oh man, i will try this but this surely will take me days because ive never been into those topics but since i really want the new wm i will do my best and report!

so first there are 3 things:
bootloader: starts windowsmobile! (called: eboot)
then operationsystem: windowsmobile(called: pda)
third is phonecomponentfirmware(calledhone)
you have to update these three using a russian rom!(romis a packet including one or all this three sections!)
then you've to get english software code! for this apply e1 rom to your i780! (it flashes pda sektion)
then it should be possible to use official english upgrader obtained by the samsung website!
this updater makes your mobile run dixb1 in phone and pda section (or how this reccomended version is spelled!).
after this you can overide pda section using a dxib1 based rom likeironeagles or dreamtheater39 or heineken ones... =)

second way described is very easy just get two files!
then edit one of them and there you are!( i think it is the seccond that has to be edited!)
official updater by samsung:
PDXIB1-XP
XVI32
what is to edit using xvi32? see middle of this post!
drivers
install xvi32 and the drivers!
then extract the updater with 7zip or winrar!
open biggest .exe with xvi32 and search for "DXIB1"... you will find it two times.
rename it both times to the same!
replace with what?
leaf the ib1 and replace the first two letters with the first two your phone has!

"cooked wm6.5" ? what does cooked mean, is it not official?
and what would be the positive effects of installing the 6.5?

cooked means edititen in a certain view.
so wm 6.1 is official
wm6.5.3 which u can obtain by using those "cooked" roms has a totaly reworked startmenu
it has other slidingpanels(titanium)
it might be faster. rom cookers (the persons building cooked roms) apply patches for stability ;more ram/space/pagepool new themes.
in wm 6.5 theres no real advantage than new startmenu and ne ie6 mobile.
i suppose to give ironeagle or heinekens rom a try and if you dont like it just flash old wm 6.1 back =)
its up to everyone to decide self wheater it is usefull or not.
on my old htc vox i always jused latest wm obtainable becuase of new features speed and stability
but the flexcable broke^^ so i got a new phone as vox is allways damaged somewhere.
and yes i'm german and i've just payed my new i780 =)
so it will arrive maybe around 29/30/31 this month =)

password
hey guys,
big problem!!!
i forgot the screen-lock-password of my phone and now i dont know what to do.
dont want to lose all my data... so a hard reset is not my solution.
do u know a way to obtain my password? should i go to a samsung store?
