W6BE (Wizard 6 Business Edition) ROM
WM6 (Build 17217.0.0.0) 6MB Page Pool
44.5 MB Storage Mem / 27.3 MB Prog. Mem. on startup.
Contents: ROM only
Usable for UNLOCKED G3 and G4 devices.
Well I've been wanting a Vanilla WM6 ROM for a while so I can get productive with my device once again instead of flashing every 30 minutes. This ROM is based on the original mUn ARTM but modified with a plethora of items from different places around the board. I believe this is as close to a factory wizard ROM as you can get. It is stable and runs well at stock speeds. It's designed as a flash and forget ROM for those wanting to be a bit less bleeding edge. It is Vanilla, yet actually kind of heavy as you must remove some things like MSQL, Autoupdate and PocketXpdf to really get some room to work on it. I use the 2.69.11 GSM, but Cingular users should probably use the Tmob UK 2.19.11 version.
Thanks to each of the following people for pieces or support:
mUn: Base ROM
Molski: ROM Kitchen
Faria: Support and just being a cooking demigod
VivaErBetis: 10-Button CommManager and SIM Manager 6.10 cabs
Anichillus: Getting the darned Office folder working and sounds fix.
My wife and kids: Putting up with a gimp for 6 weeks
Alright what's in it? All are latest releases unless you know of a newer one.
-MS Voice Command
-VoIP working (I'm working on power settings so wifi doesn't shut off after 2 min.)
-10-Button CommManager (Edit: VOIP button has been disabled because the button doesn't work yet)
-PocketXpdf replaced Adobe. (Edit: Why? Adobe is 2MB while PocketXpdf is only just over 1 MB)
-IAZip
-Arcsoft MMS
-Tao Java
-HTC Camera
NEW!
-PIM Backup 1.8 (thanks Dotfred)
-SmartSKey is in \Windows. It is not activated by default.
-SMSDRFix (thanks Saaman)
-StartClean (activated)
What isn't?
-Streaming Media
-Marketplace
-All MMS templates
-Sounds in My Documents
-Pictures in My Documents
-Voice Speed Dialer (see bottom of post)
-T9 Support
Tweaks
-Camera has no template function and MMS is set to custom.
-TIF reset to main memory
-"Turn WiFi on" removed from bubble (Wireless Manager now allows you to access CommManager to turn WiFi on and off)
Issues not addressed:
-Ringtone selection (hint: play your ringtone before closing the settings page)
-Sounds are set to WM6 default so you have the menu click
This is a tech only thread dedicated to issues with this ROM. DO NOT SAY "MY WIZARD IS STUCK IN BOOTLOADER." or I will personally find you and have you castrated with one very rusty fillet knife (ouch!).
Since there are a proliferation of ROM's based on the Double_ofour and Faria kitchens coming out, this will be my last update.

I am still very active in testing and providing feedback in various capacities, but I apologize if I offended anybody with my comments. If you have any beef with me, PM me - don't make it part of the actual thread.
I apologized, but my original words were more sarcastic and hopeful than anything; I had just been trying to get my Wizard to properly work for the entire day and was quite fed up, so I had to vent in the most minimalistic way possible - I did not acuse anybody, I was not against attempting to resolve current issues with the Xplore ROM. All I was trying to do was temporarily fix the problems I was having by testing a new ROM, I would've (and now plan on) returning to the Xplore rom, anyway.
I will be PM'ing you, anichillus.
Thanks
Already got an issue with the bloody camera... I stripped a few files earlier tonight. I'll replace them and get a new file posted.
Download repaired file above. PW is the same as your PM.
Installed quickly and effortlessly. I did notice the camera problem as well. Tried loading Faria's camera files and it did not help. It would not even attempt to bring up the camera in the MMS app either. More updates to follow as more is tested.
I am testing under these conditions

This sounds interesting. . . perhaps I've missed the original thread, if not, would you mind PMing me a link to this ROM? I've been using Xplore 1.1, but it is absolutely pissing me off - I'm having issues with it I never had before.
Just as long as you didn't remove the calculator, I'd love to test this out (if possible?).

No worries... Drop me a PM and let me know if you want to test this one, Anichillus.
Another few things tested
Wifi turned on right away and connected easily.
Camera app works in the "Pictures & Videos" app.
Menu speed is fastest I have seen so far compared to Xplore 1.1 and MB edition roms.

Don't blame on other people like Aninichillus who put all their time in their ROMs to satisfy us ... If you got problems post them in the X-plore thread to get help. ( I wonder why Anichillus has so much patience.....applaus)
@ jwzg
I'm looking foward to your release ... It sounds great and my wizard is waiting for something new to test

Sorry for being an pain.. but what's this different with the current Xplore? I like the idea of running at stock speed (you can do that with Xplore too).. but it is very difficult to see what's the difference. I did a check list, of BE-vs-Xplore list, it goes
-10-Button CommManager vs 9 Buttons
-Adobe Acrobat LE 2.0 (same)
-IAZip vs noting
-Arcsoft MMS (same)
-Tao Java vs Intent MIDlet
-HTC Camera vs Camera (are they the same?)
-nothing vs Pim backup
-nothing vs SmartSkey
-nothing vs WM9 codecs
I know it is fun to cook your own ROM, and I'm very well happy that you are putting good effort into it, but I think you might want to consider your designing phase a bit more carefully. As it is named Business Edition, are you aiming to be a bit more towards 'business' users? Do you want to consider things like having more PIM 'chocolate' into your 'vanilla'?
Again, sorry for making a fuss here without much contributions.. but just I like to be clear to avoid another good ROM cook efforts without much being appreciated as ROMs start overlapping each other Keep on the good work.
can i test it
i need to see if the mui problem is solved i have alot of problem in xplore or underground

Those things are easily added by the user. The idea is to put out a vanilla ROM that doesn't have things that some people don't need. For instance I use Sprite Backup and don't need separate PIM backup software. I will consider it and it's VERY easy. Smartskey is not included, because once the .ini is in ROM, you can't edit it to customize the function as it becomes a read-only document. Install it yourself.
As for the codecs, I didn't know they weren't already in this ROM. Anichillus has done some work here, so I'll work with him to see what needs to happen.
BTW, I know you qulaified your criticism, but until you start turning out ROM's don't be too critical.

Beta testing
Hi,
First impressions. Loaded uneventfully, longer at 100% than others, but completed no problem. Seems quick, but will do benchmarks when I've "loaded" it up. Clean, stock look. Programs loading fine so far.
Most glaring issue:
Office program shortcuts are missing from Start Menu > Programs, and separate "Office" folder is not present either. Probably left out the folder by mistake during build.
Thanks for Voice Command in rom, will save me lots of memory.
Good job!

considering that they have a different way of tweaking..
Attention, this ROM version is now deprecated, see this thread for Q-Mobile 1.2!
Well, it was bound to happen...I love all the custom ROMs out there but none of them quite suited my needs. I'm a business traveler and as such I tend to need lots of screen real estate, and a fast device, with the best software preloaded and optimizations up the wazoo.
Introducing Q-Mobile...it's all of that and more. You can see best what applications are loaded from the screen shots below. Suffice it to say, they don't even begin to do justice to the fine grained care that has been taken to configure each application for optimum use ability. I have been working on this ROM for almost a week now--my method is far deeper than simply throwing packages and RGU files together and hoping for the best. There are literally HUNDREDS of registry tweaks and care was taken with every application added--no file was left unscrutinized or tested.
Some Highlights (this is an extremely compact feature list of what I added/removed/changed):
.Net CF 3.5
SqlCe 3.5
FULL Video Access (Main YouTube as well as m.youtube)
Custom KaiserTweak for this ROM.
Arcsoft MMS 4.2.8.1
Esmertec Java 2007.08.02
Microsoft Office 2007
Microsoft One Note Mobile
HTC Equalizer 1.0.2
HTC Random Access
TCPMP 0.81
It is worth noting that this ROM is intended for the HTC TYTN II style devices (e.g. Radio 14.09 will not work).
WWE (English) ROM : MegaUpload |RapidShare
I'd like to thank everyone on all forums but especially xda-developers. Without people like you none of this would be possible. In addition it is probably obvious that I pilfered what I considered the cream of the crop applications, ideas, graphics, etc. No doubt many reading this will realize their work in here somewhere.
P.S. You may notice a seeming lack of applications--that is because I personally heavily use Spb and Resco products to complete my device. Feel free to download individual cabs to fill in any freeware you feel should be integrated.
Enjoy,
-Q
HTC Equalizer 1.0.2
You got this working???
World Card Mobile
Do you have a cab file of this? I got a other ROM and this was tooken out of it.
What is: Field test, Restore black bars & SQL Query Analyzer?
Does it include Touch Flo?

No, I left this as part of the ROM image...check dutty's page though, he should have a link for it: http://www.cinetsystems.com/xda/index.php?path=Kaiser+Cab+Collections/
What is: Field test, Restore black bars & SQL Query Analyzer?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Field test is an application that exists on every device (unless it has been cooked out) and is extremely useful for troubleshooting network problems. Obviously you can remove the link for it if you don't like it--the exe is only 33KB so its not exactly a hog.
Restore Black Bars is a tiny app courtesy of jasjamming that restores black bars if you change your theme then decide to go back to the default.
SQL Query analyzer is an app that's included with the new SQL CE 3.5...I'm not really sure how useful it would be but again, its tiny so if you don't like it just remove the \Windows\Start Menu\System\SQL Query Analyzer.lnk file.
Does it include Touch Flo?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I originally wrote "nope, too sluggish for me". This is a misstatement given that TouchFLO is indeed included (as evidenced by the screen shots. TouchFLO is the application that allows finger scrolling in many apps (ala iPhone). What I was referring to was FTouchFLO/Touch Cube (the app that allows gestures to bring up special screens (other facets of the 3D view, etc). That is not included.
Keep in mind that you can tweak or turn off TouchFLO through the KaiserTweak app under Programs\System. I myself turn it off because Spb Pocket Plus offers better support and functionality in this regard.

Thxx for the explaining.
How did you get the Equalizer to work?
Too bad it does not have Touch Flo. Or else I would install this rom.
which radio?
It's late, getting sleepy......I'd like to experiment tomorrow.
What radio would you suggest using for an ATT Tilt phone?
How's the battery performance?
Any possibility of summarizing more details of the work that you've put into this ROM?
Thanks.
Downloading now!
The benchmark result looks great! I also think TouchFlo is too sluggish, it is only for people who want to have a nice look but not the speed or stability.
Thanks for sharing us!

It does not matter when you have a TITL or TyTN II. At the moment you are using Dutty's Hybrid NO.7 NUSkool RTM with Radio 1.27.12.17. So you can flash this Q-Mobile rom.
But you should know that when you flash any roms what is built from AT&T rom, you need to flash radio 1.27.14.09!!!
This thing have Connection Setup/Network Wizard? Thoughts on reliability and speed versus Dutty, anyone?
Whats the Wireless modem thingy in the connections menu ?
congrats
It looks Great, Nice to see your cooking mate, well done

You can turn your device in a Wireless router.
There's no connection/network wizard, which is a bit of a shame. It's not a show stopper for me (always keep a T-Mobile cab handy on my storage card), but it could limit the adoption for this ROM.
I've just flashed and configured Activesync, here's my thoughts so far:
Appearance: Nice. It's got the cool black look, and it's even got a nice new image for WinMobile's equivalent to the hour glass - the spinning pie chart - which is more in keeping with the black feel. There's a single theme installed (good), and the splash screen is quite nice too.
Speed: Pretty good. I'd put it slightly ahead of Dutty, but perhaps slightly slower than Custel with Mobile Crack. Screen rotate is a little slow, but app switching is speedy (instantly back into messaging, or contacts).
Apps and config: There's no keyboard sliding sound icon, which might be a problem for some. I always turn it off anyway, and that's the default here. There aren't really many surprises in terms of app choices.
All in all I'm very impressed with it. I'm going to give it a few days to see if it does anything to upset me
hmm,going to def give this a try for a bit..

Sure, I was tired last night and didn't really feel like elaborating. Here goes...
All help files updated/removed to reflect current ROM state.
Default directory layout and file locations updated to be more intuitive.
Programs organized into folders reflecting their purpose.
Removed tons of unused files and settings.
Default button for Comm Manager is now single click on the record button (I miss that they removed the button the Hermes had for this).
Voice Speed Dial removed.
Default network settings removed (this never worked for me since I have an internet plan with T-Mobile and it always tried to set up the wrong one).
.Net CF 3.5 and SqlCe 3.5 are custom to my ROM (I had heard there were problems with the packages built by others so I built my own from scratch).
A *LOT* of work was done ensuring maximum media compatibility...as mentioned before streaming (mms, rtsp) protocols work, but the full version of pages like Google videos, YouTube, etc also should work.
As mentioned already there is no TouchFlo Cube, HTC Home, etc.
SQM (MS spyware) has been removed.
ClearStorage was removed (this can be accomplished via the soft buttons+reset anyway).
Sliding keyboard sounds removed (this was annoying anyway).
Lots of useless default images and templates removed.
Games removed (there are cabs for them anyway, and I personally never used them).
Windows Media player has a skin in theme with the rest of the device.
The default calculator has been removed (there are much better ones available out there--check out HP48 emu or 1-Calc).
IA Zip removed (there is the Office Mobile zip viewer, or better zip apps out there...Spb, Resco, etc).
Windows Live removed.
HTC Audio plugin added for use with WMP (works when device turned off as well).
All ringtones except one removed (feel free to set your own--this is how it should be anyway).
BT FTP removed (this is the Bluetooth FTP server/explorer which imho is quite useless).
Again I'll mention TONS of registry tweaks to make the default behavior of the device more intuitive.
Page file size set to 12MB by default.
While I'm sure this list is by no means complete it will hopefully give you a better idea of what's in/not in it. Cheers,
Great job on the rom. Work perfect for me even after i loaded all my apps.
Tilt User
So how is the stability and speed of this? GPS / Internet sharing works fine? Thats what I use most of.
hello, Could you please tell me how to add or post a PTT rom I tried all the hacks i could find to make it work and it will not thanks. wc3sam

Two very important things for me as well, from my perspective it meets both of these criteria. FYI I forgot to mention there's an app called Visual GPS available under Programs\System that is preconfigured to work on the Kaiser...if you haven't heard of/used it before it will help acquire sats faster.
What you do is:
1) Make sure QuickGPS has current data (by default I've configured it to automatically get this so it should).
2) Run Visual GPS to acquire satellite lock.
3) Launch Google Maps or TomTom.
The reasoning is that Visual GPS can acquire a satellite lock faster than either of these applications, but even a cold acquisition (no QuickGPS/VisualGPS) is sub 30 seconds for me so maybe it doesn't matter.
Cheers
Congratulations, mate... great work here
Attention, this ROM version is now deprecated, see this thread for Q-Mobile 1.2!
5.2.1948 Build 18548.0.7.0
And...without further ado. This should be the final revision of this ROM for a while. All bugs from 1.0 fixed with a couple more tweaks, etc. If you think you're missing something read these posts in full and you'll probably find it.
For AT&T Tilt users...I have had a few guinea pig volunteers I will be tapping later this week in an attempt to make a port for your network. Keep in mind this will be specifically for those users wanting to use radio 14.09 with an AT&T data service plan. If you have a tilt but are not an AT&T customer you should probably just use this ROM. See this thread for information on radios.
Tweaks/etc.
Don't forget to check out the Q-Mobile 1.1 Downloads section in the next post...I'm always updating it with pertinent information as people request features and/or find tweaks, bug fixes for certain configurations, etc.
Upgrade Directions
Install HardSPLv1 if you haven't already!
Flash this ROM.
After first boot, perform a HARD RESET. This is accomplished by holding both soft keys while pushing the reset. You will see a white screen asking you to press the send key to wipe your device; do this.
Why? Because it really *can* help make the ROM run like it should. I confirmed this with Spb Benchmark.
Does it make other ROMs run better too? Yes.
ChangeLog for 1.11
Sounds & Notifications are fixed!
- Sorry about this...there were some permissions issues which prevented them from being selectable. Already upgraded to 1.1 and installed files? No problem! Read this post to see alternative options or why it won't hurt to do a full backup and then restore after upgrading to 1.11 (from 1.1 only).
ChangeLog for 1.1
Email attachments fixed!
- Q-Mobile 1.0 had a bug where attachments in email wouldn't open until you saved them. This is now fixed!
.Net CF 3.5 Fixed!
- Added Net CF Config under Programs\System in case you have to run multiple versions. Almost all apps should work with 3.5 now, but if they don't you can install 2.0 SP2 from below and use this app to decide which runtime your app should use. Remember that 3.5 is a LOT faster so use it where possible!
SQL Server Compact 3.5 is fixed.
- Since only the server core has changed to 3.5 there should be no application incompatibility--but if you need an earlier version they should be able to work in tandem. No configurator is necessary as with .Net 3.5 above.
MS Office 2007 Uprage for File Formats
- Now you can open even more (unconverted) file types! (Think email attachments).
More GDI/Font Cache options in Kaiser Tweak! If you have a lot of graphics on your today screen you can now set the cache even larger than before!
- If you are having an issue with icons loading slowly you can also turn off the File System and/or File System Filter caches--this may help or it may not, experiment to see what works for your setup!
Equalizer 1.02 was removed.
- As pointed out it appears to work but doesn't really. If you think it was working for you check Dutty's cabs below and install it again!
More cleanup with regard to deprecated files.
- This includes the customer feedback application, more registry settings dealing with SQM, etc.
HTC Recorder tweak. (Directory default is now My Audio instead of My Voices).
Camera shutter sound is now off by default.
- This is an option available within the camera settings menu so feel free to turn it back on. I find the camera takes faster pictures with it off, not to mention it was annoying
Kaiser Tweak now has options for more storage card power management settings.
- The internal SD card is now linked to the next option (Pocket IE cache).
Kaiser Tweak has a new option for the Pocket IE cache location which can be changed to be on your storage card.
- Be aware that if you enable this, the power management for the internal SD card *must* be disabled (and it should do this automatically) because Pocket IE will hang the entire machine if it isn't.

TouchFLO (finger scrolling) *is* included. FTouchFLO/Cube is not.

I love your rom, but please leave the clear storage function in your next if it will be any next version It can´t take that much of resources to leave it because my Tytn II is really hard to make a hard reset, sometimes I have to press the f*cking button combination 30 times untill it makes as it should and it is so frustrating - I sometimes feel the urge to throw the bugger into the wall
Othervise I loved 1.0 so this could only be better
Is there a way to uninstall office and the coreplayer ???
I'm french and I prefere install a french office pearhaps without last update ...
I'm working for few days with the first version and I really think it's the best one... i'am glade to see this new version !!!
Go on man !!!!
Haven't tried your v1.0 but I think this is a good chance to test this your latest version! Looks very impressive based on compact feature set and the screenshots! Thanks.

I love your rom, but please leave the clear storage function in your next if it will be any next version It can´t take that much of resources to leave it because my Tytn II is really hard to make a hard reset, sometimes I have to press the f*cking button combination 30 times untill it makes as it should and it is so frustrating - I sometimes feel the urge to throw the bugger into the wall
Othervise I loved 1.0 so this could only be better

A commercial tweaking utility such as Pocket Mechanic, SKTools or Memaid offer the option of a hard reset, I think...

Ok thanx ! I shall look in SK Tools, never thought of it
I've some .reg file to install but on this rom itsays me that : "there is no application associated with "my file.reg". Run the application first, then open this file from within the application"...
Why can't it write on my BDR ???
I haven't installed the ROM yet but you'd need a regeditor to be installed before you can run/associate .reg files... PHM reg editor and Schap's reg editor are some good free ones...Schap's Advanced Config utility is then a good tool to use to associate your reg editor to the file.
Dear Quentin,
Could you specify if the bug "when one turns on vibrate only, and the vibration never stops with incoming calls?" is solved also with this ROM? Thanks a lot!

Won't Cook!
Apparently when I tried cooking using this rom, then flash it, I'm stucked at the "smart mobilty" screen. I'm using KitchenROM 0.3, and I added the HTC Task Manger and Network Wizard. Any ideas?
I found one bug that is bugging me Can´t change the sounds for incoming sms and mail. The list with sounds is just emtpy even though the wav and wma files are in the windows directory. Only me getting this?

Very good ROM
I have to admit that after flashing all ROMs in this forum this is the most responsive one. It has exactly what I need.
The only thing I noticed that is not working properly is the shortcut on HTC Home for the backlight.
Is it possible to fix it?

Updates
Mar 24, 2008 - All ROMs: Updated to 5.2.1629 (Build 18136.0.4.8), upgraded Smartdialing, removed registry hack for menu sounds. On AT&T 8125 ROM only: replaced Westtek ClearVue PDF with AdobeLE PDF Reader 2.0, Intent Tao Java with Esmertec Jeodek, and HTC PhonePad with HTC Touch keypad.
Jan 28, 2008 - Added vanilla ROM in kitchen form (see below).
Dec 20, 2007 - Original T-Mobile and AT&T releases.
Here is a ROM so boring, it looks like a run-of-the-mill carrier-branded OEM ROM with all the same apps and equally as bloated! This was my first effort at ROM cooking, so please don't judge too harshly!
I currently have 2 boring versions for USA devices, one for the AT&T 8125 and one for the T-Mobile MDA. Both are built on the latest shipping version of WM6 I could get ahold of: 5.2.1629 (Build 18136.0.4.8) from the Sprint Mogul (HTC Titan) which was released on Mar 10, 2008.
Why 5.2.1629?
This is possibly the newest real WM6 available right now. 19xx builds that are "AKU 0.7.0" are older eval ROMs. If there is a newer shipping build out there, let me know about it and I will update accordingly.
I believe PagePool is 8MB.
Your device must be SuperCID to use these ROMs.
1. For AT&T 8125
This ROM was originally based on a port from the 8525, but I've changed a few apps since companies of some of the apps are no longer in business (i.e. Intent Tao).
Apps:
ArcSoft MMS 3.5.1.24C
Cyberon Voice Speed Dial v1.2 Build ??????
HTC SmartDialing v2.5 (Build ??????)
HTC Zip v1.20 (Build 27216)
Esmertec Jeodek (replaces Intent Tao Java - no longer in business)
AdobeLE PDF Reader 2.0 (replaces Westtek Clearvue PDF)
HTC Task Manager (X-Button) v1.51 Build 30470.
HTC Camera v3.00 (Build 23027).
HTC SIM Manager v6.31.
HTC Comm Manager v1.8.1.0.
Windows Live (because 8125 had MSN Messenger)
Remote Desktop (because 8125 had Terminal Services)
HTC Touch Dual Keyboard (replaces PhonePad, it's a big improvement)
VoIP
Registry modifications:
10-buttons in Comm Manager.
SAPSettings moved to Control Panel (never tried it, but looks interesting).
KNOWN BUGS:
Wifi notification always says "Turn on Wi-Fi" even when it's already on. This is a WM6 bug that even the 8525 shipping ROM has (at least, according to threads I've read on another forum).
AddContacts.exe in ExtROM doesn't actually add any contacts for some reason.
AT&T 8125 ROM Download (OS only)
The extended ROM is not included in the above download. The ROM should work fine with the Cingular extended ROM. However, I have 2 flavors of ExtROM available. Both ExtROMs will change your splash screen to the 8525 AT&T logo and give you the AT&T theme, HTC default ringtones, and other AT&T settings.
Basic ExtROM+Splash - Rebranding from Cingular to AT&T, just basic CABs to set the theme, etc. NO TRIALWARE.
Full ExtROM+Splash - Contains all the trialware from the OEMOPERATORS of the 8525. You will get a bunch of trial software that expires in 30-days like XMRadio, MobiTV, MusicID, and other stuff.
2. For T-Mobile MDA
This ROM is virtually a direct port from the latest shipping T-Mobile Wing ROM. Basically, it is the 5.2.1622 core OS and merged it with the OEMAPPS from the Wing. The ExtROM is INCLUDED with this ROM and if allowed to customize, will install T-Zones and all that. HTC default ringtones were moved into ExtROM to make room. It seems to work okay, but there are some things I can't test like MyFaves - it doesn't even show up, but I don't subscribe to MyFaves and the Wing manual implies you need to subscribe to it for it to even show up.
Apps ported directly from Wing:
ArcSoft MMS 4.0.31.15
Esmertec Java 20070124-113964.2.1
Adobe Reader LE 2.0
Bluetooth Explorer
Symbol Pad
MyFaves 2.0
Apps upgraded/changed from Wing versions:
HTC SmartDialing v2.5 (Build 27526)
HTC Task Manager (X-Button) v1.51 Build 30470 (original was 1.5).
HTC Camera v3.00 (Build 23027) - Wing camera wouldn't work on Wizard.
HTC SIM Manager v6.31 - Original was 5.something.
HTC Zip v1.20 (Build 27216) - Original was 1.11.
Registry modifications:
Start menu sounds.
Items removed:
LockStream DRM (caused problems, had to remove it).
KNOWN BUGS:
AddContacts.exe in ExtROM doesn't actually add any contacts for some reason.
T-Mobile MDA ROM Download (OS+ExtROM only)
3. Vanilla ROM
This is a "vanilla" ROM using the 5.2.1622 core. It's nothing more than SYS, OEM, and ROM folders (it is NOT flashable as is). Just drop into the Build folder of your favorite kitchen, put your packages into the OEM folder, and cook your own custom ROM. It comes with only the camera (in the HTC folder) and CODECs (in the Default folder), although you can remove that and use your own if you wish. It does come with the necessary drivers and base control panel apps.
Vanilla SYS, OEM, and ROM folders for cooking (OS only, this is NOT a flashable .nbf file)
BUG REPORTS - Please list exact steps to reproduce any bugs that are found.
Sorry for the crappy screenshots, I don't have a good free program for that.
ALL FILES REMOVED. I'll explain later.
glad to have some fresh builds... thanks for your hard work, i'll post up any issues i find, flashing the nbf first then i'll pull it apart later. since you have both, have you found that only differences between the two are the installed apps? or have you found major differences in the default and user rgus? i'll report what i find after i pull them apart...

if you have any input about going further with this, please pm me, i would appreciate help or suggestions.
the current challenge for me is how to remove the dlls from the memory map so that i can remove the camera and netcf, etc... i have no idea how to do that and can't seem to find any pointers how to figure it out.
i've been trying to get the oemdrivers to extract with the missing files, but i can't seem to get it to work. ive tried builddsm in many ways, hand editing the dsm several times, and merging with the format of the tmo version. i dont understand what all the gibberish is before the file listing... it will build just fine, but i get a viewimgfs error on extraction. i have one more thing to try, but if anyone knows more about the dsm structure, i'd love to know how the system dsms are laid out...
_____________________________________________________________
Here is the aio radio, ipl/spl, and splash screens that i use after every flash after tmo 2.26, just makes it a little easier...
2.19.11_3.08_WM6Splash_BlankExt.rar
from the following files:
IPL_SPL_3.08
T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly
WM6_Splash_Wizard_NOID
Blank Extention Rom
______________________________________________________________
in case anyone would like to try it out, here is radio 2.71
i used it for a about a week and i like it better than 2.69. the performance is probably similar, but it seemed to be a little quicker for signal, little better call volume, and a little less battery drain. i did say a little, it's probably all in my head. i don't know about any missed call issues, but i rarely get phone calls, just sms and email.
radio_2.71.rar
2.19.11 works for me with good batt life, i guess i just feel better running the proven one...
I ended up using the same default and user rgus for both the AT&T and TMO. I did go through each to see if there was any customization and there was, but it was identical to the customizations in the OEMAPPS rgu so it was unnecessary to have them also in the default.rgu. Most of the other customizations especially for the TMO ROM are in provxmls.
so far, the stinkular one seems like a very decent base. after flash i had i bit more that 29mb free, which for a 6mb page pool is very good for a stockish rom. also seemed very responsive and fast when using file manager. the glyphcache is 8192 and auto and 0 for the file system caches. i did try to pull it apart, but imgfs craps out, much like tnt 1933 official. so ill see if i can get the thing to extract and then mess around with it.
the tmo one is, well tmo with ext rom running, 27.5 free and without 27.58 . whee! i hate tmo.... anyways, looks to be a good base after stripping it and it doesnt have problems being dumped. maybe i will see what can be done with comparing the two, and paring down the wing version... the att version at least has still has sqm, so i have to take that out...
looks good gnat, very good for your first port!
Your awesome dude. This is great. I will flash tonight and see how everything goes. Thanks

ok, i lied... didn't check... tmo one has 8mb pool, so change to 4 (the best) and 32.5 mb free!!! time to start stripping
Sorry about that, for some reason I was sure they had a 6MB page pool, but it was a long time ago that I checked and I guess my memory isn't what it used to be! Both ROMs should have the same page pool so 8MB for both.

if i use the normal core pro, viewimgfs crashes but it looks mostly there... i just don't trust imgfs anything crashing
i flashed it and the extracted the os.nb with WST then generated the nbf and extracted again. Plenty of missing files (so no dsm or rgu is how that happens right?) but easy to fix... not sure what the original problem was, but i can play now
Why does the data connection to edge/gprs connect when I want to send/receive email through wifi?
I tried going into the command manager but there is no settings for data connection.
Is there some kind of setting to stop edge/gprs from connecting
and thanks for the rom

Is there a friendly way to setup internet calling with this ROM?

Is that not typical? For some reason I thought the original WM5 did that too, but I can check on that later.
I did have a program to stop the GPRS connection over WiFi, I think it was Modaco NoData. You can get it here:

Glad to hear the MyFaves works! That's something I couldn't test myself.
Sorry to hear about the difficulties some people are having pulling the ROM apart. I'm not sure why there are problems, I can try to fix it when I get back to work. I might be as simple as I need to rebuild some dsms. Better yet, if there's demand for a vanilla ROM, I can make one of those too. I just need to know what most people want and don't want in a vanilla ROM. Probably best to leave the vanilla ROM in kitchen form too?
I'm on vacation from work where all my files are so the soonest I can get to it is in 2-weeks (Jan 7).

Are these rom's compressed or not (cooked with Tadzio's toolchain)?
I downloaded the tools Alex posted in his thread, followed the directions, and after about 15 attempt finally ended up with a ROM for my ATT Tilt that I can live with. It is based off of his ultraclean ROM, but with additions I find tolerable. The start menu is very clean, with no shortcuts activated. When I first loaded Alex's ultra lean ROM with no shortcuts on the start menu, I was sure it would not be long before I filled it with shortcuts. I have since decided to leave it barren, since it fills itself with recently used programs, and this is far more useful to me. You can create the shortcuts yourself if you like.
This ROM does not have PTT in it, nor does it have any reference to it whatsoever (no context menus, etc.). The button is free to map as you wish. Good riddance to what I find to be a useless application. I did not include an MMS composer, opting to download one from the CAB collections all over this forum. The packages I included from the kitchen are:
1-Calc
NETCF 3.5
SqlMobileCE 3.5
O2 Running Programs Today Plugin
HTC Kaizer (sic) 9 Button Comm Manager
Inbox Menu Extensibility (Mark All As Read/Delete All)
Windows Media Player Touch Skin By DuttyThroy
Office Requirements
Office Mobile 6.1
BT_SAP.2.02.b0925.r3
Connection Setup 1.0 build 30726.PPC.003 (you can just cancel this when it tries to run if you are on ATT because the connection will be already set up on bootup)
StreamingMedia.2_20_807715_00
Symbolpad.1_0_28284_0
QuickGPS__1_00_905716_00

BubbleBreaker and Solitaire

HTM Help Files
OEM Templates (Templates for memos, phone call logs, etc.)
Welcome Header
Real Player
This ROM includes radio 1.27.14.09
This ROM does not include any of the menu tap sounds.
This ROM only includes 1 ringtone (Ring-Standard). I do not like to clutter my device with ringtones I never use. If you want more ringtones, go here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Q039KPOU .
This is a collection of sounds I have saved over the years and keep on my storage card when I want an interesting sound or ringtone. It contains most (if not all) ringtones found on Pocket PC Phones in the last several years. Put whichever ones you want in Windows/Rings or in My Ringtones in your My Documents folder on your device.
For whatever the reason, when I cooked this ROM some of the ATT Tilt stuff gets installed (like the ATT Theme, Media Net, ATT Mall), but not all the rest of the bloatware, and the internet sharing tool is available as well.
I installed the new camera floating around (the stock camera is installed by default), as well as HTC album (needed for the new camera). I installed the new Touch Dual Dialer by Navadi and Dutty modified by Shayd found in this thread at post #9 (how is that for spoon feeding): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355085
This dialer includes the useless Video Dialer buttons and context menus. Nonetheless, it has big and easy to read and use buttons and it has the ability to reject a call with a text message. Try it out. If you do not like it, uninstall it or use KaiserTweak or Advanced Configuration utility to change it to the stock dialer.
I also installed a bunch of other CABS, but I am not going to get into that now. I only mention the new camera and HTC album because they work very well together. You can find them through this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355587 .
This is a base working ATT Tilt ROM that you can customize as you want. It is quite fast and stable on my device.
There is no icon for Cellular Video. You can get to it by going to cingularvideo.cingular.com . Bookmark the site if you like. It will open up videos in the installed RealPlayer. You can watch videos from m.youtube.com, but, by default, they will try to open up in RealPlayer and fail. To fix this just go to the registry and navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\rtsp\Shell\Open\Command and change RealPlayer.exe to StreamingPlayer.exe. After you do this both Cellular Video and m.youtube.com will work.
You can download it from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=T0OR1DGC and I do not give any warranties on this. Use it at your own risk. I am very happy with it, and hope you will be too.
Thanks to Alex for making it so easy to become a Chef!
Flashed - appears to be working well with KAIS_Radinly_1.27.14.09_CustomRUU. Thanks and job on the cooking.
