After some feedback at our 5.2.20273 release i did some progres and some testing with regs etc etc blah blah blah
Without SPL so must be G3/G4 safe as they say
At last a working but minimal release i think. After this i make a translation to another language. see the pictures
There are some things to be changed i think but that's for later
Very basic but with
- Office 2007
- WM5 Storage 1.8
- Oxio
- PDF Reader
- MMS
Diamond skin for
- Dialpad
- Windows MediaPlayer
- "Calculator"
Homescreen is very basic without HTC Home or Manilla clone
With the SD Drain fix
Unfortunatly i use 4shared
I have enough feedback now so i go working at release 2
Issues R 1
- Looked at MMS problems.
In our release 2 it is working but integrated in sms. (something still to change)
- Smartdailing (dialpad)
- Camera (something with settings)
- Editing registry / Windows
Thats solved (i think, because i can do it now, but also testing)
I see also some icons not in in the system settings (oa battery). That must now also be solved.
Fixed in Realease 2 d.d. 19-08-2008:
- Camera (replace the complete Camera OEM with the SVI Camere OEM)
- Dialer (Diamond dialer Poorlyduck)
- Buttons
- Icon lnk files for control panal
- MMS
- Smartdialing
Thanks:

Release 3 (xx-09-2008)
Kitchen
Great, now there's one ROm to be used and "dressed" as anyone likes
Probably I'll try
Thanks for your effort
ps: if possible a PTG version might be real nice
If you want!!!!
I speak spanish...so if you're interrested on a rom in spanish give me the files and I'll translate it for you, just tell me how!!! hehehe, when wm6 starts a Crosbow has a spanish version, and people in forum translate the english files for him then he cooked up to his rom.
There is no MMS in this ROM only SMS (Text messages). I like the newer icons in this base rom, especially the signal colors. Also, the dialpad does not work so well, after call is ended the end call button stays up and red. I know this is beta, just some notes on what I've found using it.
Bluetooth doesn't work (although the light does turn blue, it doesn't send or receive anything).
Videos can't be viewed in Windows Media Player ("The souce filter for the file could not be loaded." error message)
Again, I know this is beta...
Thanx

Hi,
Thank you for this release. I liked very much I had some problems. I can´t change any registry item. Seems that I don´t have any permission to modify thing is system. And I´ve tried to disable Security Warning during CAB installation and I wasn´t successful.
You know hot to disable this security stuff in your ROM?
Tks.

I shall try it on our Wizard.
Thank you for publishing this ROM. There is a problem with the PIN input screen : there are no buttons on the screen. You can use the buttons on the keyboard, but I was afraid to use that way.
I would need a very clean ROM , so if you have a corrected one, please publish it.
I downloaded everything from your share page, but I have not enough knowledge to cook my own ROM.
Thanks again.
i have found a two bug, i can't open camera setting and dialpad of this rom is too slowly, no show calling id and i can't use smartdialing. thank for your fix bug in future

How did you fix reg settings? For some reason people complain that they can not do it with my rom. I can, they can't. weird.
The icons not showing up has to do with the oem used, and the .MUI's used.
I had that problem when switching between kitchens. Sometimes editing the init flashfiles.dat does not work as I got duplicates that did not work. It is best to use the initflashfiles.dat that came with the rom, and edit it as nessesary.

I think i solved a lot ;-) now Probably not all. I create initfiles.dat to get the missing icons in the settings part ;-)
I removed the HTC Taskmanager because i used e closeApp when you pushed more then 2 a3 secconds on the voice button.
So i can now place release II. I hope that all issues are soved now. I look a lot at other ROMS and kitchen regs apps etc.
But before posting release II i want to know first his battery drain. In the mean team i now starting with other language roms
I was messing around with the kitchen that you posted and the rom you made (v1) and I have to say I am impressed.
I also had an accident wich left my wizard running at 38mb free ram!! I have to figure out how. never seen that before.
A couple of suggestions:
Enable NTIZ (time and date fro network) OM won't install if the correct time is not posted
Enable RAPI
Remove security when instaling cabs
Disable error reporting
Tasks.ini you might want to move into Office
SAP Settings you might want to move to the control panel
As well as modem link
Also, I noticed 2 commanagers: the diamond, and this new system like commanager in the control panel
That's all the time I have for today.
Could you send me the new flashfiles dat and HTC oem translation provxml when you are done?
I didn't see release 2 on your link. all files are dated 8-8-8 or 8-6-8. Are we waiting on an upload, or are you still working on it, or am i blind
thx

I will post him tonight. I am now checking his powerconsumption. After 6 hour battery was still 100% with HTC Home.
But Release 2 is without HTC Home.
g4 friendly???
hey is this rom ok to b adapted to a g4 wizard...?
GPRS/EDGE issue I do not know how to fix. maybe you may be able to help, or at least requires some inquiry:
Gmaps and OperaMini can not connect to the network even though the E icon is up. I have to press and hold end call button to disable it; only then those programs start a new connection. It is like the connection times out, but does not fully disconnect.
Battery is lasting a ridiculously long time with pushmail enabled (imap Gmail) much longer than the other roms I flashed. kudos.

I hoping now on some feedback to improve this release and maybe to expand in some programs.
I do now some testing with OperaMini. It not in this release. But if you mist something in it let me know
But give feedback tnx
is there a kitchen out there still for this release?
Related
This Kitchen has built in AT&T customize on first install and on HR, if you don't need it just remove the OEMOPERATORS FOLDER from the OEM Folder.
This build contains SYS and ROM in "Part #1" and OEM packages in "Part #2"
This Kitchen is so complete I had to break into 2 parts. Download and extract both parts and put all files and folders into one directory to use.
I am not responsible if you don't know what you are doing and brick your phone, but in the spirit of XDA-Developers I am sure someone here willing to help!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Latest SYS and ROM (part1) Ver8.1.0
Latest OEM Packages (part2) Ver8.1.0
Version Information:
ALL "call home" issues have been castrated! No more Customer feedback.
SDHS Memory should be full supported now! Seems to have always been present in the Official MS Wizard ROM.
All Phone issues resolved! Use the proper radio for your carrier and phone.
Wifi Issues resolved! Automatically connect to preferred networks.
Connect to Internet Via Active Sync.
For Clarification:
1) This is the original InGeNeTiCs' ROM all I did in this Version is strip out the "call home" stuff, added a few dlls that were missing but were needed for some of the HTC/touch apps (these files can be found in sys/missing files).
2) There are two OEMOPERATORS folders, one in OEM and one in SYS the one in OEM is one I put there as a example of how you can add your own cab files for settings, splash screen or whatever it is you need simply edit the config.txt file and put whatever files in the files you need. *I am not going to to into great detail how to do this all it takes is a little common since. You can delete mine if you like.
3) There are no hidden, super secret, xda-elite only, make my Wizard fly, bull**** tweaks included. just a clean, won't leave a bad taste in your mouth unless you burn it, Kitchen.
4) My only reason for creating this kitchen is to prove that the "InGeNeTiCs'- Official Microsoft-Made Specifically for the Wizard-Drivers and all ROM" is as solid and stable as any other ROM or kitchen out there if done right. Other than all I did is create and add a lot of OEM packages so you could have choices in life.
The base is like Coca-Cola "Original".
Everything works as it should the only limitations are M$ related!
This has been a fun ride but the ride seems to have come to an end.
This release is so stable that I can not bear to call it a beta anymore.
A HUGE THANK YOU to all that have contributed to this project. In the end I'm sure we all wanted WM6 but we wanted a stable version that didn't crash, lock up, and just plain ol' worked!
Credits to the ones that made the tools to make this possible: faria, anichillus, bepe and mattk_r for asking me to take the plunge.
The testers, who without their reports this would not have been possible:
Russ741, calouro, masr1979, shadezero, monkey_knight, nothin, epimazzo, afoldats, Tony Simmonds, charly_mx, Cing 8125, jorge_culv, 13rick, fix_it_2000, RevAtB, amsatnetg, hiazle, ANTC, pencilcase, xeno1, 4irm and all the others.

hi
can i bea beta tester can you send me the liknk to download
First Thoughts.....
This ROM looks to be more stable than the last one, and also I see that the reboot slowdown issue is non-existent.(It would slow down horribly on the 3rd-or-so reboot/SR) Overall, faster.
HTC AudioManager + Recorder are NOT working, but maybe that's just a package issue (I used one of my packages I had lying around). Pretty much that's it.
Wi-Fi is OK, nothing major. No phone issues as of yet.
I did not test the Home Plugin because I used my 6-tab plug. That works quite well.App Launching is a little bit faster, or maybe that would just be me
Word completion works,KB is fine (tested in Notes)
I would give it a 9.5/10 (only because of no Touch camera ,otherwise, it rocks!)
Thanks for your input!

Audio manager package that is in OEM that was included in this build is reworked for this kitchen and works fine. Recorder is in process still.
Do you know of a working 4. camera package or one in a pre-built Wizard ROM?
Do you have a Home Plugin OEM to incorporated?

This works with the included *cities.xml file. The PNGs are compressed to increase speed. Works fine. It's in color.
Got AM working (my mistake, used a wrong package) but VoiceRec is still offline. Not that I use it all that much.
I think I have a bug : you need to have WMP installed to get AM working.
EDIT: New package with "Pro" icons added.

Remove clock and put battery indicator on top instead (if you press & hold it will bring up power/battery tab).
Add day and date to touch home plug-in you can change it to display as you like:
dddd will give you day of week as a word as in "Thursday", dd will give you date style (numeric day of the month) as in "30" without quotes of course.
The same is true for month mmmm and year yyyy so experiment!

HTC WMP today plug in
I added a bunch of packages to the kitchen and have de-bugged most of them, this one I can't find. During the OS Build the process errors out at "OEM\HTC WMP Today Plug-in" with a dialog that says "The file 'temp\dump\WmpPluginToday.dll' already exists. Know I know this is telling me that a previous package has used this dll flile, what I can't find is which one it is!
Any input greatly appriciated.

HTC X-Button 1.5 offers nothing more over 1.0. 1.0 works fine with this ROM ver 5.0 (I use it)
But, if you really want it ,try mattk's package.

Ok, I already took both the 1.5 ver out of OEM. Now its complaining about sys/touchflo.dll.
edit; NOob error... left both touchflo and non-touchflo enabled in the build... fixed.
Have you built with the NON-TouchFlo dll selected?

1st flash test report
Ok,
So I got the build to run with Merlin's help (thank you Sir). Flashed back to T-Mobile 2.26, up to IPL/SPL 3.08 and GSM 2.69.11 then the kitchen build.
First the good news:
1. For the first time in a dozen or so ROMs I have flashed Voice Command workes flawlessly! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!
2. Basic functions work good, no glaring errors.
3. As theloon noted, the backlight controls will not lock the wizard.
The bad news:
1. If I attempt to launch any CAB file (including the 2.69 radio fix) I get a message saying "CAB failed to load"
2. see #3 above, it doesnt lock the wizard, it however will not open backlight control either. recommend taking this out of the launcher and just leave it in the settings page.
3. HTC Audio manager, if I attempt to open any audio file I immediatly get a message saying "critically low on system memory..." WMP still works fine.
4. The dastardly weather application doenst like the XML file i built for it. I wish there was a way to test that without building. (see questions below)
5. I used merlin's 6 button HTC home plug in, looks very nice BTW, couldnt do much testing on it since my contacts DB is at work. My only negative on this one, the musical note icon (far right) is very hard to see. I dont know who did the icon art but perhaps we could find a better icon?
6. I tried loading the AT&T extended ROM as part of this build, bad idea. The flash gets to 5% and crashes... took it out, flashes fine.
Questions:
1. Is there a way to test the weather XML file without building it into the ROM? IE: If i build the the ROM with the weather XML file included in the build I can only edit it. I cant delete, replace etc. So I was thinking that if I took it out of the build and put the file in after, maybe I could speed up testing.
2. Several of the packages dont seem to have any output, IE: the WMP home plug in, I dont see anything on the home screen that relates to WMP?
So there it is, I have to re-flash to a fully working ROM before I go to work tomorrow. I will be on line all day (from my office) so post away..
thanks Loon for letting me test this, great fun!

LOL? I think not dear Senior Member... I have tried every possible way to delete that file, stop the plug included. The file properties say "included in ROM" and will not allow changes to file prop. Thats why I asked about building without it, so the file properties would allow changes.

1. Is there a way to test the weather XML file without building it into the ROM? IE: If i build the the ROM with the weather XML file included in the build I can only edit it. I cant delete, replace etc. So I was thinking that if I took it out of the build and put the file in after, maybe I could speed up testing.
2. Several of the packages dont seem to have any output, IE: the WMP home plug in, I dont see anything on the home screen that relates to WMP?
So there it is, I have to re-flash to a fully working ROM before I go to work tomorrow. I will be on line all day (from my office) so post away..
thanks Loon for letting me test this, great fun!

What I can deduce from your observations all/most of your "hanging" problems seem to stem from the final size when you build your ROM.
I have experienced this myself, the max size for a wizard rom is around 56 MB for the ROM, but that does not include Boot loaders, Radio and Extended ROM.
In my case my phone is locked so the "customize" just uses storage/program space and does some reg tweaks.
If you want more space in your build you can use the compression tools located elsewhere in this forum.
As for the Home Plug weather XML make sure it's attributes are not set to "read only" and you should be able to exchange them at will and SR to test there usability.
My HTC Audio Manager works flawlessly not sure what you did! be careful using other OEM packages, the ones I included in this beta were designed and tested to work with this beta.
FYI HTC Audio Manager was built using Windows Media SDK so it uses components of WMP (dlls and such), I will probably move those components to different directories.
Backlight is a matter of a redirect/link.
Feel free to fix any/all issues and post for everyone to test!!!

LOL? I think not dear Senior Member... I have tried every possible way to delete that file, stop the plug included. The file properties say "included in ROM" and will not allow changes to file prop. Thats why I asked about building without it, so the file properties would allow changes.

Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard (not so) Plain Jane 5.2.19202.1.0.0 - Alpha
Yes! It is a "Vanilla Edition", English only, Plain Jane.
Hi Guys
Here's my first attempt at ROM cooking. Foremost, I must thank all the ROM cookers (you know who you are!) who has given me the inspiration to cook this vanilla edition. Also, thanks to you guys "ROM Junkies" (like me) for giving me the PUSH. The reason I cooked this vanilla edition is because I had always wanted a vanilla version. Secondly, I wanted to have the feel and to understand the effort required to cook a ROM.
This ROM is based on GnatGoSplat's WM6.1 Clean 5.2.19202 (Build 19202.1.0.0) Eval. I am releasing my vanilla edition with his blessings. Thanks so much Gnat.
What's out:
- the old WM homescreen
- all previous homescreen schemes
- JBed (java)
- Windows Live icons
- no soft-key short-cuts (due to varied devices; please install separately)
- no tweaks included, yet!
What's in:
- Sliding Panel homescreen
- Rinku Bar "ready" (included only the icons - may included full apps in future version)
- Threaded SMS is retained
- xT9 (instead of T9)
Please follow installation process from KarHoe's Guide
The flashing takes a little longer when it is at 100%. Please be patient.
On first reboot you may have a blank homescreen. Go to Settings>Home Screen>change either the Color scheme or Background image and >Done
I dont know why. Probably coz I changed/removed the green scheme.
Your feed-back is much appreciated.
Download here!
Thank you ALL.
ps. If you want to DONATE please do so BUT please contribute to your favorite ROM Cooker. I need not know if you do contribute

I think that this are those Vanilla changes... fine to me, because I disable all splash crap.
I think that only universal IME should be installed, without any languages database fot T9,XT9 etc.
I use my country T9 and it is no use for me, as many many non-speaking-english users. Vanilla should be vanilla
Good work illi
Wow great Job illi that was quick I will flash it later after reading some more feedbacks......By the way I was expecting that the threaded sms are removed since it is a Vanilla edition is there anyway to remove it or turn it off?
icons on the home screen?
Are the icons different on the home screen? power, battery, etc? Or did you change them after flashing the ROM?
download now..

Thanks Profy_X.
The "bugs" you mentioned are covered in the first post.
I only include Rinku Bars' icons with the intention of installing the full apps in future release. So if you want it now you have to install it separately.
I am also aware of the slow flashing. It was mentioned in the first post too. I am looking for a solution.
Thanks

It seems to work well except the font size on the today screen is a bit smaller. Now 8 hours after installation.
Thank for the work.

1. I forgot to mention that I installed my modified cpr file. Thats why the operator name is not at its original position and the font is thinner. The sliding panel is also slimmer. I also included the bronzeres file that contains more icons.
2. Those were removed to make sure it is vanilla and I think it doesnt impact performance.
thanks for your input. these will help of improve my next release.

Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard Tornado Hybrid
CE OS 5.2.19202.3.0.0 (SKToolsLite readings)
I am glad to be able to find the time to assemble and cook this ROM. A "Very Special Thank You" to GnatGoSplat for providing the base ROM, assistance and encouragement. A "BIG Thank You" too to RickWyatt for helping me out with my first ROM release sometime back. Thank you to everybody else who are willing and brave enough to flash this ROM to your device. I hope you enjoy this ROM as much as I enjoyed cooking it.
As I am quite busy, support from me will be intermittent and difficult to come by. I hope experienced forum members and cookers can give a helping hand. Please use KarHoe's (great work man!) fantastic Guide to flash the ROM. (Best result when "format BINFS" is done.)

Anyway, awesome work!

Thinking of upgrading ROM
Hey guys
I'm still stuck with the stock ROM on my Vox. Got too much content on my phone and didn't want to bother reinstalling so many apps and stuff again.
Now I'm seriously considering upgrading to 6.5 in the imminent summer holidays.
Anyone have any opinions on this? Worth it? Not worth it? No difference really?
The most important things to me really is Windows Live messenger. Another thing i MUST have is numerous calendar entries on homescreen all the time (lovin using "CBreminder plugin" at the moment with Grass skin2).
I've been through the forum posts and found quite a few people talking about improvements and how much better these roms are. What are the major changes that would make it worth it?
I'd appreciate any input from you guys.

Hmmm....might just do that. Thanks.
I presume I can download Windows Live messenger separately and install it.
But does anyone have any idea if CBreminder plugin would work in the newer roms?

reserved for bug list:
- icon placing in start menu needs to be done correctly
- playback issue with WMP with large storage cards - seems to be fixed - please confirm
- you still have to do basic things when rom starts (calibration, time zone etc etc)
- Naked rom is almost Naked (it still has Palm's tools and utils)
All minor bugs:
Phone: Channels - pressing Ok does not exit. Windows key does not cause exit either.
Sounds & Notifications: vibrate always not completley showing. (problems with porting new WM builds to sqvga)
Outlook Mobile: 'Menu' icon does not appear. But if you press the space between keyboard and OK icon menu list apears. - is this still active?
Major bug on some devices:
Phone goes to sleep and you can't unlock it and use it... trying to solve this it seems like it is some Palm driver / WM 280xx build issue

Nice work Heechee : thank you !!!
I'll try your ROM as soon as the "automatic connection setup depending on provider" option will be included
it is there and maybe will work for you but it is not the same like on ralph or blackstone
i have to figure this one out...
I am currently using Mattbee's 23089 version which is very good, are there any major differences in this 28008 to make it worth upgrading to ??????
Automatic configuration is working, but database is older one, so there is a good chance that it will work in most countries.
Good job!!
Thanks Acidhax
Everybody was asking for it now nobody wants to download & test it and give suggestions, comments, feedback
I will, tonight or tomorrow

will test it 2day or 2moro, got some Courswork 2do .... but looking forward to it, any ideas on RealVGA bit ?
i want new contact app from 6.5.3 and new notification bit at the top, but i find Start button at the bottom excessively big + the HardKey is just next to it lol, (i guess i will remap it to something else) and i hope RealVGA will make Start Button and other soft key a bit smaller, as it takes a lot of space on Small Treo Screen,
well i will give it a go l8r whan i have time...

Those "new" buttons were made to be used with our fingers, that's why they are "so big". I find them very usefull !!!!
I also like big buttons at the bottom it is the thing I long waited for.
Vladimir, I found the good instruction for RealVGA, and will try to implement it into ROM
Tried it on previous ROM and ended up in chaos on phone good luck is that I made backup before that

yeah but on Treo there is a Hardware buttons for OK and Start, and now there is same 2 buttons ontop... as i said i gusess is will just remap them to someting else.
and they would be finger friendly on 4" screen but not on treo ( whan u already have thous buttons as physical buttons)

ha i was about to download previous version, will wait for these to b uploaded now
problems with tweaking the first welcome screen trying to fix it right now
A lot of changes made from the 1.0 so I hope it will be OK
If everything goes well now it will take a while with my semi-slow ADSL to upload it cca 1 hour
and I think I will not try for a while to implement RealVga because I tried 2x and it keeps ruining the whole ROM... so untill I find a instructions how to cook it ...
edited all first welcome screen settings but still stuck on orange windows screen, perhaps it needs time to install everything I've put into rom, so I'll just leave it,
don't know what to do: upload or not?
I'm going to sleep now I need to get up early and I've spent almost whole day playing with this thing :
