Hello Everyone,
It has been a while since my last ROM update and I thought I would build another one based on the newly available AKU 3.2 core. The good news is that I have completed the ROM and have tested it myself extensively (as always) with no major bugs or issues to report. I am now posting the final version for all that wish to help evaluate and test this beta prior to its full release. As I stated above this is my final beta and all features should operate as desired, however if anyone should have issues or suggestions please post them.
Enjoy,
Jwrightmcps
Now for the fun part!

Same as Ivan's
Hi,
Is this rom same as Ivan's? and if not what is the difference?
also, can you PLEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSSSEEEEEE include the languages pack??
This ROM is designed for the I-mate JASJAR and is completely different than Ivan's O2 ROM although they both share the same AKU 3.2 core. see the above post for my ROM contents.
As for the language pack...
if you are referring the the OS language pack this would be impossible, because that would only be on a new device that has never been used before. The language pack feature is a new design in which a new device would already have all languages loaded in the "program memory" from the factory and when the new owner starts the device for the first time it would ask what language he/she preferred, then after the user's selection it would erase all languages except the one chosen. So these language packs are not available in any ROM and therefore I would never be able to package it.
I hope this answers your questions.
Take care,

hi,
I successfully extracted the ship.exe from the ship.zip,
as I have a Qtek 9000 I need the .nbf files.
It looks that the .exe files are not a SFX CAB archive.
This way I cannot use MaUpgrade to flash my Qtek.
Could you please put a .exe SFX file in the ftp? so I'll be able to extract the nbf files.
Thank you very much
Dias
I flashed it and its really good so far. No problems yet
SFX???
what are you trying to do???
all you need to do is run the .exe and then go to the temp folder (dont close the installer) on your computer and look for the newest folder then open it and copy the nbf files you want.
Then you can use the MaUpgrade tool. You may want to put your device in bootloader mode first.
Take care,
Jwrightmcps
is there any HTC Intellipad included, cause i cannot live without it, in Lt.Cmdr Ivan aku 3.2 beta 12, the phone pad is gone ....
yes intellipad, smart dialer, voice dialer and many other features.

Hi,
I just did:
- Start install
- open (windows->run) "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp"
find latest created folder (which contained all nbf files).
- copy *.nbf to where maUpgrade was extracted
- close install
- run maUpgrade (needed to do it twice as it didnt go into serial mode fist time).
hope this help

Heres my findings and bugs report for this latest Beta Roms we have here, plus i got a New Version of SIM Manager 5.22 to share with u guys!!
NEW SOFTWARE!!!
New SIM Manager v5.22
Current Version in the ROM is v3.16
I found this NEW Version of Sim Manager v5.22 from the Internet. You can copy ALL your name contacts from memory to SIM card at one go. One catch though - contacts saved under company names will only display contact numbers and NOT company names. Would like to share this and hopefully u can intergate it into your next Beta release or maybe the Final release.
Bugs Found:
1: Hardware buttons not responding anymore
a) volume slider
b) light button
c) voice dial
d) camera
SMS Multiple Recipient improvements
2: Cannot find this function in the inbox application for SMS. Not sure if its included or buggy sorry i cannot find it. Pls englight me on this issue. Thanks!
New Ringtone Plug-in
3: Sorry, can't find this application or program either.
4) Default File Explorer is Missing!!!
Findings:
1)New Camera application 3.00 22764
Camera Pictures Quality still not much improved
There is a newer version found in UNI.AKU3.2WWE-indra9110.BETA1 (130.115) Camera Version is 3.00 22844, i can't get hold of this version hopefully someone who has this version can share and contribute. Thanks!!
2)Screen Rotation icon no longer in taskbar!
I personally found this icon very useful, can pls reinstate in your nest Beta or the Final release. Really Appreciated!!
3)Bottom Bar Default Calender and Contacts function changed to Notes and Contacts.
Its this a AKU 3.2 upgrade or can it be changed back to Calender and Contacts Instead??
4) New Game included
Pocket Chess- Cool!!
5)Some findings on Default Memory on this Latest AKU 3.2 Rom
Default Storage Memory- 37.38MB
Default Program Memory- 28.91MB
6) Speed
Yes, Definately we have a faster ROM, still cannot comment on stability cos just downloaded it an hour ago, hope my findings can help improve this ROM further. Thanks Jwrightmcps Great Job, keep it going man!!
Does this rom support Video calls ?
Does this rom support Video calls ?
thanks
it does support Video calls
4) Default File Explorer is Missing!!!
Its in the Start menu (I thought a 3.2 Feature)
1: Hardware buttons not responding anymore
mine does
a) volume slider
Mine works
b) light button
does not work (i use the power on off button
c) voice dial
Dont care
d) camera
Works
Bugs...
The file explorer is not missing it is on the start menu (look closer please, as your post might scare people)
"ALL" hardware buttons should work, as the do on all my test phones (7 JASJAR's) Please check this again.
SMS Multiple Recipient improvements means you can SEND a text message to more than one person at a time much easier than before (this is an AKU 3.2 feature)
The Ringtone Plug-in is found by doing a "tap and hold" on any sound file, this now includes mp3 files. (so there is no program to run, that is why you don't see it)
The Calendar softkey was replaced with Notes, due to the fact you can already launch the calendar from the today screen. Leaving it as the default "Calendar" is redundant don't you think? I fell it is far more useful to have another program to launch, such as the notepad, so one could take notes quickly. I will not change this, but could provide a signed cab file that would change it to the default.
Screen Rotation Icon, again this is another redundant feature that was removed, since our devices will rotate the screen automatically. I will not change this either, but again I can provide a signed cab file for those that wish to have this icon available.
There were many other additions that I don't think you noticed yet. You all should pay attention to the things like "USB HDD", "Bluetooth Settings w/ all profiles" and the updated "Bluetooth Mouse support" just to name a few.
I hope this answers you questions
-Jwrightmcps
First of all, I would like to say thanks for this ROM (and all the guys like Ivan & Indra that put a lot of effort into it).
My observations of this ROM:
1. All buttons works perfectly. Volume, Voice Dial etc...
2. ROM is much polished than Ivan's ROM. A lot of Registry tweaks are even included already.
3. Initially after Hard Reset, the ROM felt very sluggish. However, after applying the usual Registry Tweaks this ROM just flies.
4. First time sync with Activesync 4.5 Beta is really fast. Normally it's a pain!
5. Clear Storage now resides in Control Panel as 'System Restore' so does Download Agent.
6. Lots of goodies: PhonePad, Smart Dialing, USB HDD, BT Profiles/Drivers/SIM Access, Clearvue PDF, Voice Speed Dial as well as Pocket Chess.
7. Messaging is now 'Outlook Mobile'
Will observe more Once I got all my softwares installed.
As for now, this ROM looks good.
Cheers!
I have used Monster Chinese (Version 5 for WM5) for my Wizard (8125, G3) since I purchased teh device a little more than a year ago and have had much problem. The only difficulty I got was the Monster SIP keyboard won't pop up so sometimes it required a soft reset. Now I loaded several different WM6 ROMs I found here but always have problem - the system is slowing down, sometimes it get frozen/won't weakup...
I am not sure if this problem is caused by Monster Chinese. However since a lot of people here reported very stable/smooth experience with the same ROMs on the same type of devices, I can only question the apps I added by myself if I get the problem other peole won't. I wonder if there is anyone who is also using this Chinese software on a WM6 mochine (especially Wizard), and if yes can you kindly share some of your experience about it?
I know someone talked about CE-Star but for some reason I felt Monster Chinese is a better choice. Now I might reconsider it if CE-Star creates less trouble.
I've been always using one of the WWE kitchens here, replace with chinese wince.nls, add chinese fonts, add necessary registry modifications. And I'll get a stable WM6 ROM with English interface, but fully supports chinese.

XDA WM6 with Monster CHinese and SIP
I tried using CE-Star Suite 2.8 Version R2a freezes all the time, and cannot connect to msn messenger live.
Monster Chinese and it's SIP works better, less freezes and msn can connect but still freezes with wm6, but I found XDA WM6 version best for Monster Chinese ....less freeze and the SIP keyboard popups faster and doesn't feezes as much, also I overclock too. But XDA WM6 does make a different when installing Monster Chinese.
This is the only way I got chinese working well, but it does affect the OS sometimes. Oh also install monster chinese as your last program is best cause I notice sometimes it conflicts with other programs, but if you install it last it runs better.

Thanks for sharing your experience. So it is confirmed that Monster Chinese will affect WM6 performance. Good to know you feel XDA WM6 performs better. I installed this one but moved to NBD7.3 for HTC Touch Today plugin. I probably will move back when a new XDA version is released.
I hope Maction can release a upgrade for WM6 soon (but I doubt). I like the hand-writing input for both simplified and traditional Chinese it has.
One thing I also want to try once I got some free time - I want to configure the WM6 to support Chinese as lilila posted and install Monster SIP only for Chinese input. Hope this is avoid the conflict Monster Chinese creates. This will be valid if the problem is from Monster Chinese but not Monster SIP.
Oh also install monster chinese as your last program is best cause I notice sometimes it conflicts with other programs, but if you install it last it runs better.

My feeling is the keyboard has more chance to popup if you install the Monster SIP the first. This is the major problem I have had since I moved to WM5. We may need more testing on this. But I will try to load it the last and see if there is any difference.

Oh hey I install it that way too, first I install the IME keyboards first then Monster Chinese, then Monster SIP...works best this way when I install in these steps.

That sounds pretty good, you should install the IME keyboard and MonserSIP.....and it would be perfect.

I am able to get the Block-mode Handwriting function in Chinese WM5 work in WM6 WWE and also Chinese interface without having to cook a ROM. The process is not as easy as installing a cab, but I can share it here if you want.

download Windows Mobile 6 Professional Images (CHT) or Windows Mobile 6 Professional Images (CHS).
Install the Emulators, and extract the wince.nls(CHT or CHS version) files from the windows directory. Also extract the mingliu.ac3 font file for CHT and the mingliu.ac3 for CHS.
Export the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls]
registries form the emulator for CHS and CHT.
Then in the kitchen, \SYS\WinCENLS_WWE directory, replace with the wince.nls you want: for CHT, copy mingliu.ac3 to the SYS\OS\ directory, for CHS, mingliu.ac3.
You can also prepare two OEM packages called nls and FonLink: the registry hacks for CHT and CHS that exported from the emulators. Or you can just import the registry after flashing the rom.
As for input methods, there are quite a few of them, either as OEM packages or in CAB formats.
Solution found.

Thanks for your advice. Taking the Independence Day break, I flashed my phone with NBD7.4 and tried several methods to enable Chinese support on an English ROM. Sorry I didn't follow your instruction since I don't know how to cook ROM and it seems not easy for me to learn . Luckily I found a simple way -
With NBD7.4 flashed into the phone, I simply installed a unicode font pack I found from the Internet, which includes multilingal characters, and restart (soft reset) the Wizard. The Chinese characters will be displaced nicely on screen. No need to reload wince.nls and/or change any registry key.
Later I installed Maction SIP (v5) with several input methods. Everything works fine so far.
This is a big issue to me since it resolved WM6 powered Wizard hangs up from time to time when Monster Chinese is installed. The only negative thing I can see is the font pack takes quite big space so if you need to load a lot of stuff in main memory, you may want to plan ahead.
DFUHMD.cab
Can you supply the link or file for DFUHMD.cab, How is your experience with is it more stable then Monster Chinese on wm6.
Lilila,
Would you be kind enough to share those files and registry changes with us so that we don't have to go thru all that trouble?
Thank you so much!

progress?
i'm really interested in this topic, i'm currently trying to get TomTom 6's chinese hardwriting/transcriber input to work, the pingying/zhuying work fine.
the handwriting/transcriber don't, though it seems to work fine with a chinese rom, so i'm trying to figure out where the problem is. i've tried installing monster chinese and CE-Star. both cause my system to hang...ALOT. so i was hoping this would work.
i'm just curious if anyone knows of the root of the problem, and if any progress have been made
i'm currently trying to make heads and tails of this
thanks

The link for the files:
http://rapidshare.com/files/45830591/CHtCHs.zip.html
I have built cabs for my packs, look at my signature.
The Chinese support pack includes all input method equipped with Traditional Chinese version of WM (Chajei, Phonetic, Writing Pad and Full Screen Writing. Chajei and Phonetic can use hardware keyboard).
The MUI pack localizes most parts of WM6, with shortcut names.
However before use, remember to backup your data, then apply the 2 security cabs, or you will get big trouble (Due to the fact that system DLLs are required to be signed, and it is not possible/feasible to get all DLLs signed with a valid certificate)
hey stark, i tried downloading the disablesecurity.cab from your website, the link doesn't work, says file isn't on server
is anyone else having that problem?
thanksss
Sorry, there is a mistake in the filename (CAB vs cab)
It is fixed now.
Remember to backup your Wizard before installing!
I am currently using the O2 XDA Exec with Larentius26 WM6 PRO Business Videocall ROM. However, I don't think this should be rom-specific.
The word autocomplete does not work anymore. I have already activated it in the Keyboard Input menu (Start: Settings: Input: Word Completion. I try to adjust the figures but it still doesn't work in any case). Soft-reset does not help.
As far as I understand it, the dictionary files in the \Windows\ folder: dicprob.0409.dat; statdict.0409.dat; mssp2.lex, are all there
Also, after a period of use, switching the input method becomes impossible.
Similar problem persists in the autofill contact name in the message composing window.
Major additional installed softwares include;
- Replacing original English font files with the one with English + Thai fonts (similar file names: tahoma.ttf & tahomabd.ttf).
- LingvoSoft Thai Keyboard
- Opera 8,60 (8,65 buggy + freezes)
- Pocket Informant (rev4 build869)
- Skype 2,2

- Risidoro Intent Manager (v11.1.7.1023)
- Battery Status (v1.04.203 beta4)
- Resco Explorer 2005

Anyone know how to deal with this issue, or any experience please advise.
Thanks a lot! Greatly appreciated!

XDA Mobile 6 Release 4
Let's give thanks on Thanksgiving; Its a new XM6!
You can now cook your own version of this rom! Click Here!
XDA Mobile 6 Release 4 (XM6r4 for short) is the fourth version of the popular XM6 rom series for the Wizard. The base rom is the same, but with new features and fixes to a few bugs found in XM6r3.
XM6r4 is built on the OS 5.2.318 Build 15342.4.0.01 rom that was provided to us by InGeNeTiCs from Howard Forums. While this is not the "newest" release of WM6, it is the last known release that was built for the Wizard (ie: its not a port from another HTC Device). Various pieces of the base rom have been upgraded, so some of it is stuff ported from other phones so that it can have newer functionality. Overall, I feel this base is very stable and fast and makes a great base to cook on.
Please Note: this ROM was NOT intended to push the limits on speed optimization or memory optimization. It was made to be functional, stable, and something that I myself wanted and will use. I've found it to very quick and responsive (especially with Overclocking with BatteryStatus), and so far Battery life has been very good for me and those beta testing this. If you have a Battery Drain issue, make sure you flashed back to an official rom before you upgraded to this one, as that should correct extended rom corruption that has been shown to cause battery draining. BatteryStatus is NOT included in this ROM. If you want to overclock or use other features of BatteryStatus, you are welcome to download and install the latest version of BatteryStatus yourself. I personally use it, and have OMAP set to 247MHz with CPUscalar set from 143 to 247 and Boost set to 260Mhz.
Base ROM Information
The base rom was an "Official" Wizard WM6 ROM that was part of the development cycle of WM6 inside of Microsoft (Dogfood as they call it). The base rom was not a port of another device rom with drivers and stuff pieced and parted onto this one, but this was an actual Wizard WM6.
Windows Mobile 6, OS 5.2.318 Build 15342.4.0.01
ROM Version: 10.1.0.811 WWE
ROM Date: 08/11/06
Protocol: 4.1.13.09
There is no Radio, IPL, SPL or Extended ROM included in this (so its G4 "safe").

Mods made from XM6r3
In addition to the apps listed above, the following fixes and mods were made to improve the user experience on XM6r4
Changing ringtone now stays changed when you leave the Phone app
Using press and hold on CommManager button toggles vibrate on and off, and phone does NOT stay stuck in vibrate / no ring mode
Regional Settings default to English (United States) and use a slash for the date seperator (M/dd/yyyy)
Menu sounds work by default
Pressing the "End Call" button does not disconnect GPRS but minimized the active application. Pressing and holding the "End Call" button for about 5 seconds will do a GPRS Disconnect
Internet access over ActiveSync (USB) connection works (You must apply a registry fix on your PC first. See the next post for the fix)
D pad now works differently with PIE. Up and down presses on the D Pad stay the same, but pressing right jumps forward a page and pressing left jumps backwards a page. Makes going through websites easier (IMO).
Fixed the A2DP registry for sampling
Registry Entries for PIE Connections to speed page loading
Registry Entries to increase In Call Volume
Press Button 1 for messaging (like normal) or hold it a little longer and HTC Action will come up (via HButton)
WkTask setup to not show Phone and Activesync as running apps in task bar
QuickMenu enabled for nice drop down and cascading start menu
Touch Scroll only is active so use your finger to scroll in most places
Requirements
You MUST have an IPL and SPL at 2.xx or higher (BOTH not just one or the other).
You MUST be running ActiveSync 4.5 on Windows XP (Vista comes with the correct sync utility, although there have been issues reported about Vista and sync'ing with PPC's so be aware of that).
Before you attempt to upgrade to this ROM, Please follow this thread to learn how to flash roms, CID unlock your phone, and how to fix issues you may run into! It is also recommended that you flash your phone with a Windows XP computer and not Vista. It will work with Vista, but if you run into problems Vista can't talk to a phone in Bootloader mode!
Recomendations
I HIGHLY Recommend that you flash back to an official rom before upgrading to this (or any) custom rom so you have a clean base (and correct any Extended ROM corruption you might have). G4 users would flash back to their provider's latest official release or the Wizard Love ROM. G3 users can use T-Mobile 2.26 for a good base.
If you use BatteryStatus (its NOT included in the rom!) to overclock, I don't recommend overclocking above 260Mhz, and the CPUscaler settings in BatteryStatus should not be set to a min lower than 143MHz (or your device may not wake back up after going to sleep).
Newer Radio ROMs on WM6 have had issues in the past (especially for Cingular / AT&T users). T-Mobile 2.19 (UK or NL versions) seems to be the most stable, but you can now run newer radios with the attached cab. This cab also works for some other providers but not for all, so its up to you to test what works for your phone.

I've moved the credits to the 5th post of this thread as this post has become too big.
Known Issues
When entering a contact in the "To:" field it does not link to the outlook contacts, it instead shows suggested words. You can tap the word "to" and it will go to the contact list no problem. Also, when trying to select a file to send no file names or pictures are displayed just empty square boxes, you can tap the box and it will go to the next sub folder, if it is a folder. There are no thumbnails or files listed so it is impossible to navigate to select a picture or video. Click Here to download patch
After the initial flash, some have reported that QuickMenu pops open the start menu when you are supposed to tap the screen to start the phone setup. Just wait a second or two and it will close by itself.
The base rom has a bug / feature where if GPRS is active, unanswered calls may not show up as a missed call and may not give notification of the unanswered call. If this happens, the unanswered call shows up in the history as an answered call with a duration of 1 or 2 seconds.

XM6r4 Addons and Information
Radio ROMs
Here are links to a few of the Radio ROMs that I've used with XM6r4. Remember that Radio's newer than the 2.19 radio may require the WM6 Fix CAB that is attached to the first post of this thread.
T-Mobile 2.19.11 UK
Cingular 2.25.11
2.61.11
2.69.11

How to not have a 24hour Clock (or how to show AM/PM)
This works on all WM6 roms
Go to Start > Settings > System > Regional Settings
Make sure you have the correct Region selected
Click on the Time tab
Click on the drop down box for Time Style
Notice the little up and down arrows? This is a scrolling region in this dropdown. Click the up arrow a couple of times and you'll find h:mm:ss tt
Thats it. Microsoft is amazing at having a 2 line scrolling region on this dropdown. You'd think they would have had at least 3 or 4 lines show up for chosing (and it would be more obvious that its a scrolling region then too).
GPRS / MMS Setups
First, here is The Ultimate Thread with people posting operator settings for about all providers! In the first post is a link to the thread where walshieau is creating an automated way of setting up all of these!
What follows is a list of automated and manual ways of setting up GPRS and MMS for various cell providers and regions that I've collected:

Connecting XM6r4 to the Internet via ActiveSync 4.5 on Windows XP
For those having issues connecting to the internet via Active Sync, cut and paste this code onto your PC in a file called net_over_activesync.reg and run it (on your PC not your phone)
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]

Splash Screens and Splash Only RUU for G4
For G4 users, Click Here for the RUU with the Splash Screens of this rom (since you don't get them when you use the shell tool). As I understand it, this is completely safe for a G4 as its nothing but splash screens (no OS, IPL, SPL, Extended ROM, etc, just splash and htc logo screens). I've also placed the .bmp files that make up the splash screen in the zip file so you can see them directly before flashing this.
If you have problems flashing the above RUU on a G4, then extract this http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=29158&d=1152698784 and pull the nk.nbf file out of the above Splash Screen file and put it into the directory of this one and run this RUU. You can use the same method for flashing the Radio Only ROM (pull the nk.nbf file out of the radio only rom and put it into the directory of this RUU and run it). Thanks anichillus for that link! You can also check this thread for another RUU that is in English and seems to work for most G4 users. Thanks Vippie!
Weather Panel Setup
See my post in the Wizard forum on how I setup WeatherPanel. It will give you a fixed dll with correct moon phases through 2008, new/better Moon phase icons, and a cool theme called Chameleon-240 QVGA. I dumped SBSH Pocket Weather after seeing this setup
Hermes Black Cabs that may be of Interest
Transcriber can be added back into XM6r4 by using the Black 3 Add-on CABs file. There may be others in it that may be of interest also for some. Included in this file is Cyberon VoiceCommander, Cyberon Voice Dial, VIjay555 utils, and a Slingbox patch (none of these I've tested).

BatteryStatus (for Overclocking, CPUScalar, and much much more)
BatteryStatus is a very popular utility around here and for good reasons. Currently its in a beta phase and the author is releasing new versions of the beta constantly so I decided not to put it in the rom and let people install whatever build of it they want. Also, some versions of BatteryStatus have been known to cause excessive battery drain, so be aware of that too. You can find it in the Official BatteryStatus thread and if you do use it, feel free to give feedback on it in that thread as they are always looking for ways to improve it.
NOTE: If you do use overclocking, I recommend you use the OMAP Apps tab to setup Camera to be at 195Mhz as it can mess up the display if you are overclocked and doing the camera.

Included Apps Info
Info on Included Apps
FingerFriendlyFriends v1.0 Beta 2
For those wondering, PocketCM was replaced in XM6r4 for two reasons. First the author of PocketCM did not want it included in roms. Two, I like the FingerFriendlyFriends app (even though I hate the name )
Check out these images of it:
I would advise you to check out and participate in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340227&highlight=fingerfriendlyfriends if you like FingerFriendlyFriends. The official website is http://www.jotto.no/fff/ and has info on using and making the most of FFF
For those that don't want to run FFF and want the standard Conctact manager back you can do the following:
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS
Change "String 1" value from "\Windows\PocketCM.exe" to :MSPOUTLOOK contacts.
Then if you want it back, you can change it back to \Windows\FingerFriendlyFriends.exe
Since FFF is in beta, if you need / want to upgrade, just drop the FingerFriendlyFriends.exe file in \Windows
SK tsync
Included in this rom is SK tsync, which will synchronize your phone to time servers. I've included in \Windows a special link called tsync silent.lnk . You can copy this link (with TotalCommander or use WinXplore) to your \Windows\Startup folder and it will allow your phone to sync its time after a reboot. Famewolf also wrote a Mortscript for easy install (since Mortscript is part of this rom). Click Here to download this script, then just place it on your phone and run it, and it will copy this shortcut to your Startup folder for you.
MobileJustice v0.8
MobileJustice is an Anti-theft app that you can configure on your phone. Just go to Start > Programs > Accessories and click on the MJConfig icon (first time in you will get a message that there isn't a config file, just click ok and it will be created). To us this, check the Enabled box, then click Add on the Allowed line. You can then setup your SIM card as an authorized one, and add other SIM cards IMSI numbers if you use more than one. Next click on Add next to Report to: and setup an SMS number (wife, friend, colleague) where you want the text message to go to if an unauthorized SIM is put into your phone. You can add multiple SMS numbers if you want. At this point, your phone will now be setup so that if an unauthorized sim is put in it, then it will send an SMS (with no record of it being sent) to your Report To list on the next boot (you can test this by not setting up (or removing) the Allowed and then doing a soft reset).
For more advanced, you can turn on the Disp MsgBox at the top and then put in some text in the MsgBox text line. This will pop up a Message box on the screen of the phone after a boot, if an unknown sim is in the phone.
You can also enable RMon (bottom half of the screen), put in a pass phrase, and then turn on MsgBox (GPS and LocCall do not work on Wizards, and the other options haven't been implemented in this version). By doing this, you can now send an SMS to your phone in the following format:
+m passphrase message
Rmon will intercept the sms message (so it will not show up as a received message), and if the passphrase matches the one you put in the configuration, then it will pop up a message box on the phone with your message in it (so you can secretly send messages to the thief to possibly intimediate them (or whatever).
The project page for MobileJustice is located at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mjustice/

Everyone that installed and gave feedback and support on the other XDA Mobile 6 threads
Everyone that I thanked in my other ROM releases!
I thought there were going to be door prizes...didn't we agree on door prizes? No mouse pad?
Great job once again mfrazzz on the rom!
^..^
congratulations..
This really is an excellent release Thank you, Mike, and happy Thanksgiving..
One remark though, for everyone who may see the QuickMenu popping up at the first boot after the flashing: You don't need to click anywhere to make QM disappear, it will hide itself after a few seconds and you can continue to the initial configuration of the Wizard.
Release 3 is one of the best roms, i was waiting for next version.
Thanks for this one, will flash it today.

If your apps require registry entries more than likely you will have to reinstall them..they may or may not keep your settings depending on whether the settings were kept in the file or in the registry. (usually the registry)...any documents or files stored on the card should be fine however.
Here is a mortscript which may be of use to people reinstalling...it's called Reload..I am not the original author..I just made a few changes.....these instructions are taken from the Readme.txt inside:
How to setup:
1)Extract Reload.zip to the root of your storage card.
2)Place cab files in the CabsAuto folder if you want to the cab to be automatically installed to the phone storage.
3)Place cab files in the CabsManual folder if you want to be able to choose where to install the cab.
4)Place file in the Backup.zip file that you want to be restored to root of phone.
ie. If you wanted example.jpg to be placed in the \Windows folder, place example.jpg in the Windows folder of the zip file.
5)Place file in the SDBackup.zip file that you want to be restored to Storage Card.
*Please note that the cabs files placed in the CabsAuto folder need to conform to only asking the user for the installation destination, then showing installation successful/unsuccessful. Otherwise you might encounter some problems. You should place cabs that don't conform in the CabsManual folder, or adjust these cabs with programs such as WinCE CAB Manager.
###############################################
How to use:
2)Execute Reload.mscr. This will initiate the script that will first install the CabsAuto, then CabsManual, restore the files in the Backup.zip file if it exists, and finally restore the files in the SDBackup.zip file if it exists..
###############################################
Please note that files in CabsAuto are cleared out as they are installed so you may want to have a "CabsAuto.save" you copy over before a Reload.

how can i get voicecommand to activate when i push the button on my headset. right now it just starts the phone app
WOW! - One Question
This looks like an amazing release. I haven't flashed my phone since TNT 4.0, but I am going to try this tomorrow night for sure. Just one question, does this have the fixes so that there are no problems with the missed call notifications when using GPRS or during another call?
Thanks a lot for your hard work again mfrazzz!

An awesome collection of apps in this release.

The radio fix?
The Radio fix (XDA Cingular WM6 Radio Fix2.cab) ... has that already been applied and, if not, what does it fix exactly?
Which could be causing my problem? My girlfriend isn't getting my texts and she has verizon. Is it the 2.19 radio rom, this rom, or the T-mobile settings I chose?
I know you can get them from other places either in CAB or in OEM Packages. However, it's just too difficult to get them all together.
So I present you some of the OEM packages which I collected, extracted or created for use in my ROM.
1. The first one is taken from Schaps' ROM. It's a 3G-Battery with Indicator. I didn't ask Schaps' permission for this. I hope he's cool with it.
2. O2 Backup is taken from O2 Life and has been fixed to work on all devices. It allows you to backup PIM & My Documents data
3. O2 SMS Plus v1.6 is also taken from O2 Life. It's sorta like SMS Threaded applications. It also allows you to send/receive vCard from other dumb phones. It also support group SMS & Scheduled SMS
4. HTC Album v1.1030.720. Taken from a CAB file with fixed English Interface (Originally Chinese). You can choose which Folder to browse.
Here are another 4 Packages:
1. Newer version of HTC Home v2.1.105.722
2. Adobe Flash Lite v2.1 with the Cool HTC Animation from Schaps
3. Schaps' Advance Configuration v1.1
4. Palm Threaded SMS with fixed database folder. Instead of in Windows Directory, I patched the database to be stored on 'My Documents' folder for easy backup. You need to rename your backup SMS data from 'PalmMsgv001' to 'Palm01' and copy it to 'My Documents' folder.
Another 4 Packages
1. KeepAlive is a very old freeware from WinCE days. It prevents your PPC from turning Off. It's very usefull when you need to let you device on all the time.
2. PowerOff is another old freeware from Scott Seligman. It just shows a tiny PowerOff buttons at the Today Screen.
3. O2 Smart Text is also taken from O2 Life. It's just another thumb inputs with T9 capability. Good for One-Handed Operation
4. Picsel PDF Viewer. Taken from PPCGeeks. A superb PDF viewer compared to Adobe offering.
I downloaded all but I couldn't install even a single one.
These are not cab files nor installation .exe files nor a folder placed in the machine to run off with.
What are they? If these are for ROM cooking only then they are outside what most of us want to deal with.
These are OEM packages for ROM cooking and since this is the upgrading forum its the right place for things like this to be posted (IMO).
I personally wouldn't mind a separate forum for cooking, as some of the questions here are rather 'off topic' from ROM upgrading (flashing) or cooking, since installing an application is not an UPGRADE in any sense of the word...
Until then, it seems like this is the right place for this...
Thanks for your contributions [email protected]...
wow...a package for palmsms...hopefully it works.
Thanks for the packages! Am sure some cookers will find these handy!
how to benefit from thsoe if you are not a cook?
Hello,
a lot of thsoe packages look really useful, but, noby uses them so far in the offical release ROMs.
Cooking your ownROM still sounds intimidaing to me (and mybe others), so is there an easy to get thsoe as cab files, or is it posible to cook a delta ROM just adding those pakcages to one of the release ROMS?
Thanks
Juju
As requested by you here or via PM. Here are the CAB files for the OEM packages.
The 3G Battery Level will replace a system file. So you need to install Certificate CAB to allow the installation.
For Keep Alive, PowerOff, Advance Configuration, just copy the execute file to your Kaiser. No installation is needed.
HTC Home & Album CABs are widely available so I won't post them again. To change the HTC Album to English menu (from Chinese) you need to copy the 'RFileShell.dll' from Resco Explorer english Version.
Enjoy!
There is another nice application called O2 Theme which works well with kaiser. This is the WM6 version of O2 Plus. To learn about this, you can go to this thread I posted in Athena board:

Subject: M8 help hint
hello developers
your product M8 is very good!
one more idea, to improve usability:
make an option to let keyboard appear from top of screen, till the middle.
the reason is: some applications have text input field at the bottom, but doesn't recognize keyboard allocated this place. and doesn't redraw it's input field higher (on the top of new appeared keyboard), so application text input field becoming invisible until the end of input.
another solution on same problem:
make your keyboard application it's own temporary input window on top of keyboard.
(it may optionally include increased font size for better visibility on street)
will be waiting for your reply, and a new version
thanks
now, let's wait for new release of it (under name of O2 or standalone M8)
Palm Threaded SMS changed database folder
[email protected] said:
. . .
4. Palm Threaded SMS with fixed database folder. Instead of in Windows Directory, I patched the database to be stored on 'My Documents' folder for easy backup. You need to rename your backup SMS data from 'PalmMsgv001' to 'Palm01' and copy it to 'My Documents' folder.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I guess this is somewhat helpful because it's easier to back up the My Documents folder than find PalmMsgv001 in \Windows and back that up.
However, I hardly ever put anything into \My Documents because of the chance of forgetting about backing it up before flashing a new ROM. Hopefully someday we'll see a Threaded Messaging app that has more options - like save folder, and font size (the font is so tiny!). That's why I liked TxtMan - but it crashes too often, and isn't completely integrated into the Windows messaging system.
if someone could fix palm to work on the kaiser thatd be fabalous.. i know im jumping off topic but im willing to offer up $25.00!
