Best Windows Mobile 2005 For Xda 2

Hi guys!
I own an Xda II and I'm thinking of upgrading it to WM 2005.
After having a look around I'm a bit confused as I'm sure are a lot of other people because there's so many different versions of WM5 to choose from on this forum that I don't know which one to go for.
Could someone please recommend the best and most stable version of WM5?
Thanks a million.

Hi Rizwan
Could not agree more, I'm also confused as to what ROM is the best....
Eg, whats the fastest and most stable ROM out of the bunch?
Cheers
Fudge

well, its same with me a long time ago..
don't worry guys.. after several looking in this page, there's a several rom for WM2005 which is :
1. Helmi AKU3.5
2. C_Shekhar Rom AKU 3.50C (the newest rom)
3. other (like virgy, etc)
In my Opinion, you should try c_shekhar rom. its very nice looking (crossbow theme), more stable, quite fast..
hope you find the suitable rom.

[KITCHEN] BETA: Extended Elf/Elfin Kitchen for WM6.1

Extended Kitchen for Elf/Elfin
Elfin base: New Elfin 2.xx
OS base: VF Kaiser UK 3.08.161.0 (Build 19199)
Completely rebuild the XIP section based on:
- Kaiser: MSXIPKernel, MSXIPKernelLTK
- Elfin: OEMXIPKernel
adjusted boot.rgu by adding the 19199 related changes
OEM packages except of OEMDrivers are clean 19199 packages
Requires the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package
Full XIP editing support
I've added a tool that removes the RGU's from the rom and moves all the DSM content to one DSM
Please read:
For the case that you are a cooking ROMs and getting donations for it, I would really appreciate a small donation,
cos I'm saving money for a new device. (I thing that would be fair )
Download: ELFIN_DEV_v2.1_Build_19199.rar

elfin rom not work on elf and viceversa, but I am not sure.Because there are some rom that can be used with elf and elfin.

That is good news....
The new 2.20.x.x Elfin ROMs work with both devices.
I asked swiftblade a while ago. It has something to do with the XIP.

ok, great
could someone try if this rom is booting on Elf/Elfin:

it is the final 19199 build... I know it is confusing, cos there exists 19521, 19716, but this one is much newer (much faster, more stable, not beta)... don't ask my what MS is doing with this numbers, I've looked into all this builds and non of those is fake (only the 20000 build was fake, but that was not even AKU1 )

I am using an Elf (Wasabi 64/128), I have flashed 2.20 ROM (for Elfin) for sometimes. It did worked on my Elf with the result that Program Memory became bigger than what it should be and extended over Storage Memory (less Storage Memory).
It also consumed higher memory.
BTW, it did work.
+++
There is one thing that I cannot do, I cannot make an OS.nb smaller than 50MB. It cannot be flashed to my Elf.

Correct 50MB is the Limit which should give you a pretty nice Big Storage Anyhoos.

@Bepe..It is great pleasure to see your wonderful kitchen at this forum.. And yes, I can confirm that all the 2.20.xxx.xx ROMs work on both the ELFs and ELFins without any hitch.
I am downloading your Build 19199 now and will try it out after work....
@Noonski... Welcome Back! The ELF forum was never the same without you..

Report
Already flashed OS-ElfIn to my Elf, it does work and it is much better than install Elfin 2.20 ROM on my Elf.
Camera doesn't work.

What pool does it have 4Mb or 8Mb???. Lately to those who we have ELF have us forgotten because 8Mb of pool it is great for us that our machine has few RAM, and nobody can say to me like to change the pool to 4Mb.
Thank you

Ok, thanks for testing
There are no apps installed on this rom, cos I'm not releasing an Elf ROM without having an Elf.
I'm just making a Kitchen the other ROM cooks can use.
This Kitchen is just a "perfect" port of the new OS and to add the OEM apps is job of the cooks.

yes, it is WM 6.1. Build 19199, forget about the other WM 6.1 builds... this one is the newest one, more stable, much faster, not beta.
19716 Is beta build and very slow
19521 Is a very old build... I've known this build for about 4 months
191xx Also old and some of them beta
19400 Also new... but no idea what exactly that is... it is somehow different from the other build
19199 Is the new build ported from a leaked HTC Kaiser rom, it seams to be something like final AKU 1; Try it, it's very fast
I have no idea were all this builds higher than 19199 come from, but all of them are real and not fake numbers. So I'm thinking MS is working with different teams on this builds. Build 195xx 197xx seam to have a newer kernel, 191xx have newer SYS stuff, 19199 is the perfect one with new kernel and SYS

Code:

A link to some kind of description, please?

Link to PPCGeeks
and another mirror: L26 3 53 502 0 WM6 1 PRO V1

Thanks, will definitely try this. I am running the previous version (V4) now, which I like, with the exception of SIPs not working -- TouchPal, PCMKeyboard, Diamond keyboards -- none work. I hope this one works.
Leo, a couple of suggestions:
- Include Diamond keyboard in your build. Others may prefer TouchPal, etc. but Diamond keyboards are free, so it would be a nice touch
- If there is a way to not show the video dialer, that'd be great. I'd rather not install another dialer on top, and I don't have any use for video dialing (AT&T/US). I do like the feel of that dialer otherwise
- Include HTCHomeCustomizer
- Include changes similar to what Sleuth does with "TurboMode" (change glyphcache limit, turn on filesystem caching, set a large file cache size)
Looks good!

Hi all, I've started a new thread, you can find the rom here:

Are 1.65.xxxx radios compatable with this rom? or just 1.64.xxx and the 1.58.xxx radios? From my past rom flashes I've found it's usually one lot or the other

Thank you master N. N. Cuong
And, special thank to master PhamQuang and the nice folks at the PDAViet!
Enjoy,
KOR!
Please note: Since this ROM is based on N. N. Cuong's previous ROM v2.11.11, therefore I believe that this ROM is for G3 devices only, though I might be wrong!
Can any G4 device users confirm if this ROM works on their devices! It has been confirmed by few users that it doesn't work on G4 devices!

plz if any has tried both, tell us ur impression, is it worthy to change to NN.cuong's one?

Can't recommend this one - bricked my UNI and needed to follow the full Mamaich unbrick process to get it working again!
Currently running KDSKamal again, but thinking about switching to Ranju 7.7.

It is the fastest ROM i have ever seen in my life, not only for Uni but alkso for all devices i have used till now started with Qtek 1010 and ended with Polaris. It is extremly fast in switching between landscape and portrait, searching my contacts (2500 contacts) in a snap. To be honest, i didn't install a lot of programs, only the Arabizer of Imaginet (it is knwon as a heavy program) and anothe 10 bucks of medical programs called Skyscape (it is known as a so light programs). I didn't install any utilities or multimedia programs, didn't add any thing in today screen, it is alrady occluded . Really, give it a trial. The only questionable problem is some tolerable strange Radio behavior, will try radio 1.18 and decide.

Thank u very much Dai for translation.
Now, i see the cause behind that great fast, surely because it is ported from an originaly VGA ROM (the diamond ROM). Good done N.N. Coung.
Can u please check for the recommended radio by N.N.Cuong?
N.B. I didn't try Camerea till now

Really, it is a difficult question, and the answer depends upon ur demands. Ranju's is a very stable and having a lot of stuffs. Cuong's one is fast as a rocket, vanilla, and ported from a VGA ROM, the base ROM for all the coming cooked ROMs in next days, and I dream if the masters of cooking could integarte the Manila stuffs in next ROMs. So, for me if Cuong's ROM provides me with the minimum level of stability during my drive test along today and may be tommorrow at maximum, I'll keep it till Ranju release a new Diamond based ROM.

I concurred, n.n.cuong rom is really fast, this rom is as fast as his 2.11.11 if not faster,
this is how universal really should feel, fast and snappy!
many thanks to n.n.cuong for the rom, and KOR for posting them

Can't recommend this one - bricked my UNI and needed to follow the full Mamaich unbrick process to get it working again!
Currently running KDSKamal again, but thinking about switching to Ranju 7.7.

Hi Paul,
Just out of curiosity, is your Universal a G3 device or a G4 device?
Though, sometimes the FAT does get messed up during flashing and then there is always MTTY to the rescue!
KOR!

Thank u very much Dai for translation.
Now, i see the cause behind that great fast, surely because it is ported from an originally VGA ROM (the diamond ROM). Good done N.N. Cuong.
Can u please check for the recommended radio by N.N.Cuong?
N.B. I didn't try Camera till now

Salam hbahaie,
Yes, it is kindness from DaiThang to provide us with the translation. Unfortunately, both of my Universals are not with me. One is out for repairs due to broken USB port and the other is with one of my friends. So unfortunately, I cannot try this ROM and Ranju's v7.7 ROM for few days.
PhamQuang was the first one to port the Diamond ROM to Universal. This I posted few days ago and you must have missed it. The Universal with my friend has this ROM on it. Very fast and very stable.
Of course, combine PhamQuang Diamond port with the NNCuong previous v2.11.11, I have no doubt we have a winner on our hands. An extremely fast and very stable ROM with 21MB as Flash Disk.
Salam,
Mohamed

Arabic Language Files or ROM anyone???

I have come to the conclusion why Arabizer is not working on many of the newly updated ROMS. It has to do with the Arabic Language not being installed in the roms.
ATT Rom does not have it, HTC newest ROM either. I have looked everywhere for the language packs including google. I gave up so what I am asking is..
does anyone have the language files. I know L2 must be using them in his ROMs as Arabizer is working
The only programs I found costs money.... so if anyone has the latest Arabic Language ROM or the files needed they would be highly appreciated for my next build

i don't know anything about this, but you could try here. i found some threads about ppc there, so...

i am looking into the arabizer cabs, however im short on time. If anyone finds a good solution or has an OEM package that we can cook in, i would be more than willing to incorporate this into my roms!

Basically, there are three Arabizer programs.
1. IMAGiNet.
2. MOBiDiv (latest version of IMAGiNet and usually don't work with the v6.1 ROMs).
3. InforMobility (mostly works, but in my opinion it is not as good as IMAGiNet).
All the above 3 programs are paid software. They do have 30 days trial. If one owns iMate devices than I believe IMAGiNet comes free with hardware. And, if one owns the O2 devices than I believe that InforMobility come free with the device. This is basically included in the AR ROMs.
The PROBLEM with v6.1 ROMs:
Most of the time with all the latest cooked ROMs by almost all the chefs, the software keyboard doesn't work. One cannot select the Arabic or any other keyboards. So the Arabizer might work but the keyboard does't. This includes many keyboards, including Rosco, TouchPal and so forth.
See here!
In conclusion, I can upload the IMAGiNet Arabizer for testing purposes, which has the 30 days trial.
KOR!

Problem is that I can too download the Arabizer but it won't install on any WM6.1 device.... It needs the Arabic language files in the ROM in order to work properly.

hi there, attached below is the cab file i found in the dump rom of my kaiser.
hope this help.

look for file called FJE.V6 it should work

Hi,
I am NOT endorsing to use pirated software in anyway, but to say that all 3 software are paid software is a bit overstated.
I have researched this Arabizer problem thouroughly and posted a summary on a different forum (in Arabic). What King of Rapture has mentioned is correct bu needs some clarification.
1) Official Arabizer that came with the device is from Informobility called Fe Jebi Ein and the most recent version is 6.1. So far, this version works fine on most (if not ALL) ROMs based on WM 6.1 (I am running it now on HyperDragon).
2) During the i-mate era (when HTC devices were sold under the i-mate brand), Arabizer was provided by a company called ImagiNet. They have so many versions such as 339, and 342 to name a few. Up to Windows 6.0, these versions have been working fine.
3) ImagiNet was then bought by Mobidiv which released new versions such as 407 and 411. ROMs from Dutty and Leo support 407 (411 installs the Arabic interface by default and therefore it is not recommended to test with it initially) on WM 6.1 although the compatibility was not full. Problems have more surfaced with WM 6.1 ROMs ported from Diamond. Contacts do not show anymore and clicking on the Multilangual Support icon does nothing.
HTC has been using different Arabizers from different companies. For example, the Arabizer on the Kaiser was JFE 6.1 but on the Cruise was from Mobidiv. People have been able to port the Arabizer from the Cruise and install it on the Kaiser because they like it more.
I am willing to answer any question regarding the Arabizer. Please let me know exactly what you are looking for.

Version 6.1 is much better because it supports the external Keyboard on the Kaiser.

BTW, forgot to mention that the latest official Middle East ROM from HTC does NOT have the Arabizer. Looks like HTC does not care much anymore about releasing an Arabized ROM and leaves it up to the user to install his/her preferred Arabizer.

@ryncppr, check your PM please.

Are you sure? I have been using ROMs from HTC Australia and Dopod in Asia and was able to install Informobility FJE 6.1 on them.

Thanks eltabry. This is Build 407 from Mobidiv which is supposed to work on all HTC devices.

So lets start with this question first of all...
In everyones experiences, what works or what step do you do to install arabic on a WWE (world wide english) WM6.1 rom?

OK mate; from experience, here are the rules of thumb:
1) Better install the Arabizer immediately after a Hard reset. If you try to install one and it fails, it is better to HR again and try another one.
2) The one posted earlier will NOT work on your ROM; you can verify that; this is in fact what we are trying to solve.
3) The other Arabizer FJE 6.1 will install on your ROM.

Steps to get FJE 6.1:
1)) Goto samery.4shared.com
2) password is "ce4arab" without quotes
3) In the left pane, goto to Kaiser > Arabizer
4) In the right pane, download March_11_fje_1_of_2_arabic.zip
That's all what you need for the Arabizer; file 2 of 2 is just additional applications.
All credit goes to the Genius people at ce4arab.
Edit: I am leaving work now and will be offline for few hours; will touch base with you later; you can experiment with both Arabizers.
