WM6 8525 AT&T Release - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

Has anyone seen the official AT&T WM6 release for the 8525 that was made available this morning? I can't help but wonder if this release could be ported over to the 8125..... Any Ideas?

I haven't seen the release numbers for it, but some of the roms we have now are ports of the leaks of this rom (as I understand it).

Here is the page link:
http://www.america.htc.com/support/8525/software-downloads.html
I guess what I'm looking for is a ROM based on the official ROM, Then I can decide what to keep and add. I've tried a couple of ROM's (TNT 5.0, XDA6) and even the light versions seem to much and seem to slow down my 8125.. Any suggestions?

Can this "os.nb" extracted from the ROM, be used with the Wizard? It doesn't seem like it because it's huge! 72MB. Either there's a whole lot more to it than the Wizard ROMs that I'm used to or it's filled with an incredible amount of bloat? Is the 8525 that much different?

How do you get the .nbf out of the .exe??

well you won't get a .nbf file out of this exe, but a .nbh file as it's a FW for the 8525 ...
you can use WinZIP for example (2 times ).

I ported this rom this morning. Its an older build but I'm impressed with the speed. After soft reset it has approximately 30~31 mb free with a 6mb page pool. There's no windows live and no onenote mobile but this doesnt bother me in the slightest. I'm keeping this rom for a while.

There's an extended rom and a radio. These two increase the size of the rom.

No I dont see the point in releasing a rom based on an older rom build.

How about maybe the Radio/GSM will actually work on AT&T unlike any other build other than the loon's 318 which does work.

I would like to see an official build as well. Much more stable in general.

Thanks all! I for one would love to see this rom, This may be the exact rom I've been looking for. Again thanks to all who have responded!

if im not wrong this rom ver is old

This is the link to the HTC website for the 8525:
http://www.america.htc.com/support/8525/software-downloads.html
I've attached a screen of the ROM ver and date.
It shows:
ROM version 3.62.502.3
ROM date 10/11/07
Radio version 1.54.07.00
Is this old? What versions are in the current ROM's on XDA?
Thanks

The build number is 18128.4.4. Currently the latest build available to wizard users is 18533, so technically speaking the AT&T build is old. That being said, I'm not one of those people who have to have the latest rom, I like my roms quick and stable regardless of how old people might think they are.

Well then for the Sake of Speed and Stability, Please release the ported rom. You have made your own grounds for release.
Thank you in advance.

I'll second that. Unless you're on dial-up, you might as well post.

Peter, if you have this ROM in kitchen form, would you be willing to share it? I could dump it, but my tools to dump Hermes ROM's are on another computer, and I'd like to simply take a look at the OEM folder of this ROM.

I have this in kitchen format on my work machine (won't have access to it till Monday), but how do you port from one device to another?
Is it as simple as replacing the device-specific files from a Wizard WM6? If so, I had found a list of device-specific files, but I don't know if this list is correct or comprehensive. Anyone know?
cecompr.dll
ceddk.dll
nk.exe
HtcPm.dl
relfsd.dlll
TrueFFS.dll
ROMHDR.txt
PARTHDR.txt
boot.hv
boot.rgu

In previous roms "Junk-soft" was build into ROM
please upload this rom, because looks incredible
still downloading....will up as soon as it's done and post the ftp link here
as already said, junk was in the ROM last time, I've contacted some people over the pdamobiz to have them release a clean version, if not, I will have a look to see what I can hack together
I'm downloading too. (over 40 hours already) 32 MB so far.

It's always up to you to upgrade your device with other people's ROM or not. If you feel it's full of junks, then just don't upgrade your device or just do it yourself.
hello,
are all the "junk-soft" in the extrom or in the ROM? is it possible to "debranded" the ROM whith making a soft reset after align the screnn? Will all this software (many unusefull for my using) don't install and we can choose afterwards what we want to install then?
sorry for my bad english.
John
Yeah, sorry Kuanchai (and I speak for many people...)
I'm currently using the RUU_Prophet_G3_2151327_AKU23_023021_P16MB_PDAMobiz_v2307 ROM that "is full of junk built into the ROM". I'm not complaining even though it is not 100% to my liking. I thank the people over at PDAMobiz for giving us this ROM and showing us the trick to CID unlock our devices.
I think in our zealousness to tinker constantly with our devices, we have become greedy Uncle SCROOGEs... always asking & asking and forgetting to say thanks.
And thank u Jesterz for notifying the rest of us. Let us have your review ok? Maybe some of our Thai friends can give a breakdown of the info on the site...?
Take it easy...

Hi guys!
Please be calm. First we should say THANKS for the effort, whatever our liking or not.
Then, we could suggest things to improuve. I myself might dislike many of the things included in someone's else cooked ROM, but suggesting to move them to another file and then allowing us to install them "one at a time" from, let's say, an SD card, is not a bitter complain.
BTW, as soon as an easy "ROM kitchen cooking" tool becomes available for Prophet I'm sure there will be no more complains in that matter....
Don't you?
Radio ROM?
does this 3.2 upgrade require a Radio ROM upgrade too?
I'm using Radio 2.30.21, not very happy at this time, since battery depletes at at astonishing rate and my prophet disconnects itself overnight. Are the different versions compatible with the new AKU?
Wich Radio versions are recomended?
Tanks!
Pfff that took long enough.

Thanks, Putra and Looking Glass. Sorry if my previous post might be a little offending. I'm not in the PDAMobiz team but always respect them for their constant effort to make new ROMs for our use and never asked for anything. I also know that all of us here are also pleased to help each other without asking for any reward.
In fact, I also don't like some softwares in the PDAMobiz customized ROM but never complaint that those are junks. I agree that we could suggest things to improve and I think they are welcome any comments or suggestions. I think it would be great if our requests are more friendly. It might take time though to make a new ROM after our suggestions.
By the mean time, if you don't want to use any software in that ROM, just delete their shortcuts from /Windows/Start Menu/Programs. Their existence in your ROM doesn't make any harm to your device. If you have time to learn how to modify ROM image, then you could delete those softwares from the ROM and add any other things in. Then you will get your completely customized ROM.

These 2 new ROMs will downgrade your Radio ROM back to 2.19.21. You could, however, upgrade it back to whatever you like. The developer suggested version 2.20.21 because it's more stable and less battery drained:
http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/Prophet/PDAMobiz_Prophet_G3_RadioRom_v2.20.21.exe
http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/Prophet/PDAMobiz_Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.20.21.exe
Please be cautious if you want to upgrade to 3.2 ROM, from the forum, there are still some bugs:
1. The battery is not charged during the sync. You need the wall charge. Someone said soft resetting the device while charging will help.
2. MSN is still not working.
3. A few people said their device hung up when enter the camera.

I ported WM 6.1 build 19202 over from a kaiser rom. I finally worked all the bugs out except for one...
How do i change the name of the rom in the 'About' screen?
It reads:
Kaiser Rom
CE OS 5.2.19199 (Build 19202.1.0.0)

I tried that too, didn't work, then I gave up. Had WAY too many issues with my ported version.
I'm still at it
Ok, I just couldn't give up. I found another rom to port from, hopefully without a version name. I still would like to know how to change the version name of the rom.
Please.
Victory Is Mine!!!!!
I found it!!!!!
I don't know if I should tell everyone though. You should find it on your own just for the experience......
You will gain a HUGE understanding of how it works.
Victory is not mine.
I thought I had found it, but it ended up not working properly. It wasn't a total loss though; I did learn a lot about where the language 'strings' are stored.
Does anyone know how embed a custom version name into the 'About' screen.

Perhaps the HTC stuff from this rom, and the OS from the Xperia 20226 - although both of these are Beta roms, stability may be an issue.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. Reading the post it seems that it will benefit Diamond owners more than Kaiser owners, plus there's nothing there that can help with porting Manilla over.
But I've been wrong before, although it was only 1 time.

Hope this isn't too n00b of a question, but what about the OS version? If the UI won't work, that 's fine; but perhaps the OS is a bit more optimized and will work well for the kaiser..? what about the Radio? can it be used? Is it any better than what we have now?
Thanks in advance for any new information and answers to my questions!

Nope radio's won't work. GSLEON bravely tried to flash a Diamond Radio and it bricked his device. I would recommend that you wouldn't do this.
The OS version is what I am talking about.
The Windows build is 19960.1.2.2
Did the dump and alot of nice programs built into the SYS folder....problem is like the Diamond is that it is made for a VGA screen so in order to use a majority of the programs they need to be scaled down or reconfigured...
Doing a ROM right now with an XIP Port and moderated SYS port will let you know how it goes!!!
ryncppr, Im counting on you Bub!
Tried to install the opera .cab for it.
Got this Error.
Code:
Setup Error:
Unable to install application. Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again.

New OS porting needed 5.2.20271

Hello everyone,
I got a surprize in my mailbox this morning. I have been searching for the new OS kitchen to be ported to our wizards. the latest one that is being offered on the kaiser forum. As far as I know the build is a couple of weeks old at best.
So, anyway, user SamuelTee sent me some links for it.
SamuelTee said:
You mean the SYS part of it? the 5.2.20270 I found on some thai page. Unfortunately can't remember where. But here is a ROM Kitchen (including SYS 5.2.20273, OEM and ROM) for the ASUS P525. Don't get scared. Part of the SYS parts are in the OEM (kind of messed up IMHO ). But everythings there.

I think that MOLSKI J.VD.Spank and IT"SRIGHT will do a much better job porting a kitchen for us than I will. Perhaps this is why I am posting this for everyone's consideration. I will certainly try to port it; but I just think that someone else can do a beter job.
Looks good, will check it out when I have the time for it (vacation is over, back at work again )!

By the way, the asus kitchen is all russian. even GMaps has only one language LOL.
The other "pure" is an nbf. and I haven't had the chance to dump it with hypercore; I need the old core kitchen to do it.
This week i'm gonna port this build to the Wizard. Very busy with work since I'm back from vacation... So have some patiance...
I have now uploaded a 5.2.20273 and now the trick to get and change the OS
So i have now the 5.2.20273 os file is not the "71, but i dont know whats the latest edition ;-(
I am thinking to collect OS and XIP files
273 is the latest one. I also should have put the number in the post "another sourse"
Ok, but what is the advantage while 273 is newer??...
I'm still confused because your fail in using my kitchen which support porting automatically !!!!
I am using your kitchen
in fact my wizard is running off it.
Just clarifying the post.
