I have the Verizon PN820 Smartphone whcih is running WM5. I see that there have been several WM6.1 roms for older smartphones and I was wondering if I could extract the WM6.1 from those rom, and build a new rom for the PN820?
I have extracted the current ROM via the pdocread util. I grabbed the StartTrek WM6.1 ROM since I imagine it's close to my phone except that mine is CDMA and not GSM.
Is it possible to extract the OS from the Statrek 6.1 rom and install it on my PN820? If so, is there a guid that I can use in doing so?
Thanks,
Jef

I can't see the ROM on WiKi or elsewhere. SOMEONE pl HELP
Download the WM5 Vodafone ROM if it is still available from vodafone NZ then run the extended ROM tools to get back to a generic ROM.

Hello All,
Firstly let me apologize if this has been answered already, but after hours and hours of reading I am still unclear on a few points.
I want to be able to take a complete backup of my Stellar before I update anything in case of any future problems, so that if need be I can revert it back to the same state as it is in now before sending it back to O2.
1 - Is this feasible / possible?
2 - I know I can unpack and repackage the OS ROM, but what about the radio / spash logo & SPL?
3 - Can all the CID, Security and SIM locks be replaced if required?
Can anyone recommend the best course of action for me to take, so that I can dump everything first, in a format that can be easily re-flashed, before I start to load HardSPL etc and then suddenly find I am S.O.L and cant return one component to the original version..
If anyone would like copies of the original Firmware / Logo / Radio etc after I manage to dump them.. I'll be more than willing to share - provided you dont mind giving me hand with dumping etc
FYI - Here are the Versions on my device:
Radio: 1.27.12.32
Protocol: 22.45.88.07H
ROM Version (from Bootscreen): 1.82.00.00
ROM Version (from Device Info): 1.82.206.1 WWE
ROM Date: 10/04/2007 (Not sure if thats 10 April or 4 Oct)
WM6 Pro. CE 5.2.1622 (Build 18128.0.4.4)
Model No.: Kaiser
Thanks in advance...
you could try searching, someone has probably done all the dirty work in dumping and reconstructing the o2 rom already

From what I can tell, but I may be mistaken, this ROM is a different version to the Shipped / Reconstructed ones on the Kaiser Wiki...
Also, the splash logo on my Stellar, is definately different to the O2 splash logo that is available via download... Mine shows a 'wireframe landscape' while the other is the same bubbles splash that I had on my Wizard (O2 Xda Mini-S)...
I have a Stellar and would love a copy of the O2 ROM as I have flashed without backing up so if you manage it I'd be in the queue for a copy.
there is a rom available, but it doesnt restore the spl or the front splash screen. anyway these could be extracted?
hi
where is the rom located?
O2 Stellar ROM
seconded! I too now need the ROM, but have searched the site and the FTP to no avail, anyone have a dumped ROM that they can point me too please...
TIA

Ok...this is what I have...I have a G3 Wizard and my husband has a G4 Wizard. I have managed to unlock SIMS and CID unlock both our phones. I have managed to put new roms on both phones. I went with safe clean roms and now I want roms with more "bells and whisles". My problem is I can't figure out when looking at all the roms out there which one is a G3 or G4 (mainly G4). I was able to tell with my first G4 because it clearly stated "only OS and splash". As I read through all this there are two extensions a .nbh and a .nbf. The .nbf seems to be for the G4 phones. I realize the G3 has much more roms out there but if a rom doesn't state "OS and Splash Only" or "Ok for G4" how does one tell?
Here is my list of Roms (took a while to download):
Ryncppr v5 (downloading now, not sure)
Artemis Touch 4.02 (nk.nbh)
Dutty's Diamond V1 (nk.nbh)
ConfusedStu Mobile Vista 1.3 (nk.nbh)
WM6.1 Diamond "clean" - This is G4 (nk.nbf)
WM6.1 SNN Diamond 3.1- This is G4 (nk.nbf)
WM6.1 SNN Diamond 6.1 - This is G4 (nk.nbf)
Now reading more into this forum, it has been said that the newer wm6 and 6.1 roms are being created to be safe with both G3 and G4 but I have not found that to be true.
Could we start of list of what roms are G3, G4 or safe for both? I think this would help all of us who are so excited to unlock, SIM/CID their phones and now aren't quite sure of what roms we could switch in and out to.
Thanks!
p.s. G4 phone stuck on white screen of death. Tried all master resets, to no availe.

All latest wm6 wm6.1 custom build roms are safe for both G3 and G4 versions,they Don't have any IPL/SPL included in them,read the Rom threads and instructions posted there carefully,you have all your answers there.Now no specific G3 or G4 roms are build seperately.Just to give you a couple of examples,check this out:-
[13/May] TNT.19213 Series (Vanilla/Official/Professional) UC **NEWEST**
General Notes: (Please Read before updating)
-Remove SD card while updating.
- the two bluetooth icons on the tray launch, you can open their menus by double click or click and hold.
- Before asking, give us your edition (professional or TouchFLO...)
- if your rom has PIMBackup older than 2.5, install PIMBackup 2.5 and do the backup via it.
- SMSDrFix not activated, you have to open it to replace the numbers with their contact name on messages.
- If you open Advanced Config, the battery icon on the tray launch will disappear, you have to restore it using Advanced Config.
- There is no IPL, SPL, ... JUST OS and splashes, so i think its safe for G4 users.
- Radio 2.19.11 UK more stable and fewest issues and no missed calls.
- You MUST have an IPL and SPL at 2.xx or higher (BOTH not just one or the other).

Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM
[Stylus.Not.Needed]
UC CAPABLE ROM
Final Note:
I accept no responsibility for any damages that maybe done onto your phone by using/attemping to use this ROM. This ROM has been flashed succesfully onto my CID & SIM locked G4 using SoftSPL.The nk.nbf file only contains OS and splash screens. No IPL/SPL. So it is G4 safe. Please read the "READ ME" file included in flashing tools. If you are new to flashing I strongly recommend reading the stickies in regards to flashing a new rom onto your device in order to avoid any damages.

There's no need to list separate Roms for G3 or G4,coz there are none specific for each device !!! Even official carrier roms are build with containing IPL/SPL for both the devices in a single package.Roms are the same for both G3 and G4,only upgrading procedure is different for both.
Cheers!
I was hoping you would be the one to respond to my need for help. Maybe my problem is, I have been reading too much? Crazy huh?
Thank you very much.

Hi, I am trying to look for the stock ROM and RADIO for my AT&T Tilt. Before I flash my phone with the hack OS I had Windows Mobile 5 where I can select the GPS com ports. I been trying to look for it all over the place but can't seem to find it if anyone is still using the stock ROM and RADIO for the AT&T Tilt can you please upload them to Megaupload so that I can re flash back my phone to the original thanks.
R U sure Kaiser have WM5 stock ROM mate? If Hermes, i know. But Kaiser
im pretty sure that wm5 wont even run on the kaiser
I looke din the ROM section but none are listed as CDMA, are there any windows mobile 6.5 ROMs for CDMA TP2?
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=98
http://www.sskusers.net
One of the most stable ROM's available.
I havn't flashed yet, but I did download the 2 latest WM 6.5 VZW releases as of 11/18. Must I absolutely have an internet connection on my PC to even use the Hard SPL ? All I have is what comes on my phone through VZW. There is no cable or dsl where I live. Am I SOL with flashing my TP2?
you should be able to unlock and flash directly from your SDcard...check ppcgeeks...they're more CDMA flavored over there
Check this thread US Cellular just released the Touch Pro 2 with 6.5 on it. There has been work started on making various ROMs from it, 'stock' and custom...

I have tried most of the roms out their (Energy, SSK, Mighty, Elite, currently using BuildOS to cook my own roms) So far (until I tweak my own rom to perfection) Mighty Rom tops em all. It is more a business type of rom without alot of bells & whistles but I like that because I can just install my own programs on to my storage card and not have all the bloatware on my rom space. Leaves over 100mb of free memory after a soft reset. Definitely a must have rom.

PRBajista 9:
Good news for you then, he has already checked in on the thread I linked to, so he will probably be releasing a new ROM based off of that before too long.
EDIT: Juggalo_X says there is an upload set for tomorrow...
You cannot unlock using storage card method, only flashing of ROMS will work that way. The HSPL requires an internet connection on your PC so it can check for updates, phone broadband can't be used in this procedure since it will be in the middle of unlocking. I am SOL on this one. Unless there is another method to unlock SPL on Verizon, I wont be able to flash. Friggin sucks
