Hi there,
I'm new here but got so much out of this forum so I'm happy I can give something back to the community - though it's mainly interesting for the German folks.
After many hours I finally figured out how to activate the display of the home zone on the stock HTC Touch Pro as on the branded O2 XDA Diamond Pro.
1. Install the missing manila files "1bf4fdc4_manila", "5e8e48df_manila" and "6b3eaf1e_manila" which are included in the O2 branded ROM to your windows folder using total commander e.g..
2. Create the following registry keys and entries (e.g. with TaskManager or any other registry editor for PPC):
a) Under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC" create a key named "HZI".
Under this key put the following entries:
"HZService version"="1.30.30448"
"Type"=dword:00000000
"Tag"=""
"LACIn2G"=dword:00000001
Under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services" create a key named "HZService".
Under this key put the following entries:
"DLL"="HZService.dll"
"Prefix"="HZS"
"Keep"=dword:00000001
"Order"=dword:00000008
"Index"=dword:00000000
Under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM" create a key named "MASD".
Under this key put the following entries:
"HZService_O2DE"="1_30_30448_0"
3. Restart TouchFlo3D or Touch Pro itself.
That's it, the home zone symbol and the word "home" will be shown in the left top area at the same height as the operator logo (usually there is the date shown which moves underneath the big clock and is then situated right to the alarm clock). The same symbol but a in a small version will also be shown on the telephone screen left to the "backspace" symbol in the top area.
IMPORTANT: O2 currently does NOT support home zone display when registered in their 3G network (UMTS) but only in GSM, so either put your phone in GSM mode only or use the tone indicator offered by O2. To figure that out it took me quite a while since my phone was set to automatic and during testing never showed the symbol though it was correctly set up ...
Hope that helps a couple of you out there since that information I could not find anywhere on the web.
CU,
Vampyre
UPDATE: Okay, I got it now working on 3G as well - it turned out to be an O2 issue, not the Touch Pro's fault or anything on my side. For all having trouble with display of the symbol in 3G: Call the hotline and let them open a trouble ticket for you stating the problem. Maybe you'll have to try several times but it actually works. Currently it only stops working when in 3G mode HSDPA is available and shown on the TP display. But I'm working on that as well...

On my xda Diamond Pro (ROM: 1.90.207.4 GER) I can see the homezone indicator in 3G mode.

Okay, since I don't have a XDA I cannot verify that. I got that information straight from the O2 hotline. But if you can I would appreciate an export of your registry to check if that can help to solve the issue as well as a copy of the "HZService.dll" located in the windows folder.

Could you please send me a CAB file? Thanks in advance.

Under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\HZI" I have an additional entry named "HZService version" and the REG_SZ value "1.30.30448" and the entry "Tag" has the value "home". All other entries are identical to the entries you decribed above.
The missing homezone indicator could also be a SIM problem. I had this problem (missing indicator in 2G and/or 3G mode) several times when I got a new SIM (replacement or new multicard). Then the service hotline resent the homezone coordinates (once they had to send it 3 times) to my mobile (logged in to 3G network) and all worked perfect.

Okay, the tag value is set during the operation of the DLL, so it's "home" on mine too. The second entry I do have too; I just forgot to mention it in the first posting (gotta to add it).
Okay, the SIM might be a problem too, so I'll try your procedure as well (hopefully it's not the same person on the phone as when calling the first time and getting the above stated information about the lacking support for home zone in 3G).
The DLL is identical to mine, thanks for sending it anyway.;-)
I'd still like to compare my whole registry to yours...;-)

Doesnt work on XDA Orbit 2 (Polaris)
Hi there,
i'm using a XDA Orbit 2 (Polaris) with Touch-It M2d 3.6 and installed your .cab, but no homezone symbol on my Today screen =(
Does this .cab work for Polaris at all?
thx for your help

Actually this cab is only meant to be for the HTC Touch Pro aka Raphael as is the forum in which this post is located ;-)
If it can work for your Orbit 2 as well I cannot tell, but since you don't have the TouchFlo3D interface I doubt it.
CU,
Vampyre
Still no homezone icon on my today screen but on my contacts and dial screen of iPhone! Seems to be at the same places like in the original dialer. Thats all I need.
thanks
Alex
Thanks for your kind reply and cab file. I am using xda diamond, windows 6.1.
I am unsuccessful in installing on my device. My phone was already saying that this application is not suitable for my ROM.
Could you please provide the cab file for xda diamond.
EDIT: Whoops, I should have read the whole thread. @mods: please delete this post, it was redundant.

Hmm, as I already stated, I've never made up a cab file before and I'm pretty new to this PDA stuff, so maybe somebody with more experience in making cabs could check what has to be done to make it work on Diamond Pro?
UPDATE: I guess I could fix the CAB now as I got more insight on this process...Could you try it out?
Thanks for your post. But my phone was unable to install this CAB.
Okay, here we go again, another try with the CAB. At least on mine it seems to install.
Thanks for trying.

I tried it on my Herald / Xda terra and didnt work as well :-( I dunno what the difference between the models is, but I also use Manila 2D (OpenTouch 7.7. ROM). Which program can I use to edit the registry? TaskManager didnt work here... Sorry, I seem to be quite untalented..
As I already stated, this method and DLL are *O*N*L*Y* valid for Touch Pro and Diamond. It needs TouchFlo3D to work. Manila 2D as well as other interfaces to WM will probably not work.
TaskManager works for me, but there are other registry editing tools out there. BTW, with TaskManager a separate tool and not the in Manila integrated task manager is meant.
I own HTC touch pro 2 (win mobile 6.1.; touchFLo Vs. 3.0 - it should be the same as touchFlo3d?). It is new (seems to be produced 05-2009) and unbranded.
I tried your cab. It installs and the registry entries are as you wrote in the beginning of this thread. I copied HZService.dll to the windows folder and restarted.
It does not work at all. What the heck could be the problem?
Hope this thread isn't closed yet.
Greetings from Berlin, Germany
Are you in a HSDPA area? As in previous posts noted the cab will not work when in HSDPA mode. A workaround is to disable the display of the "H" symbol which will give you the home zone icon but no "H" icon any more (though HSDPA speed when available will remain as quoted by other users).
CU,
Cactus World
I am in Berlin, Germany. This should be a HSDPA area but I always only have "G" on my phone. Any other ideas?

Hi All,
I've recently bought the Vodafone 1605 (aka Hermes). I'm trying to access Live! I've searched and found a post for getting the jasjar to work with it. I've checked my wap proxy settings, I have reidentified my browser as the Nokia6630 with the registry hack...
Unfortunately, I just get a page with:
> Next
.............................................................
HomeMy MenuMy PageSearch
I can click on some of these and it gives me various blank pages.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm keen to get mobile tv working.
Cheers
Simon
Does nobody have any ideas? What is the difference between the pocket IE setup for the hermes and for the jasjar?
I've tried putting all sorts of things in the regkey:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\]
and done the change to (Default) from Vodafone/1.0/HTC_Mercury/1.20.161.3/Mozilla/4.0
to
Vodafone/1.0/HTC_Mercury/1.20.161.3/Nokia6630
or even
Nokia6630
I have cleared all the other values such as compatible, Desc, Platform, UA-language, Version.
IE seems to be ignoring that setting completely.
Yours desperately
Simon
I'm in the same position as Simon. The JasJar posts were all a while ago - is anyone accessing TV on Vodafone now using a JasJar?
Looking a bit further I have discovered the key:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\UAProf
This contains a url to some settings for the browser. Could this be overriding the other keys? Could someone who has manged to get live working on their device confirm whether this key is present for them?
Si
I have also tried this tonight and have had the same problem. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hello
Please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950&highlight=01752+265111 - that's great news.
It is quite simple - I followed the instructions to create the xml file then the .cab, installed it, turned wifi on, enabled the today plugin, when to settings/phone/internet to select "whenever", fixed the redundant 9 in the dialplan with totalcommander, rebooted, and in the next 5 minutes successfully called myself ! Even better: it works with a bluetooth earphone.
This is the 2nd killing application to me : fully integrated VOIP.
Only 1 problem so far:international numbers do not work, which is a problem for me since every number I have stored is in the international format (+countrycode-localnumber)
Tomorrow I'll try to make my international number work with some dialplan editing and post my results here.

Excellent news.
If possible, please provide me following three DLL files from your universal WM6 Windows directory.
dnsapi.dll
voipphonecanvas.dll
rtcdll.dll
I downloaded and installed three three files for Hermes WM6 from ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/WMXL_Support_Files/WM6VoIP.CAB.
It can not make VOIP calls because those DLLs are for Hermes WM6, not for universal WM6.
Thank you in advance.
they are the same for both devices.

I have a low volum using voip under WM6, what about you?
XDA Mobile 6 Release 4
Let's give thanks on Thanksgiving; Its a new XM6!
You can now cook your own version of this rom! Click Here!
XDA Mobile 6 Release 4 (XM6r4 for short) is the fourth version of the popular XM6 rom series for the Wizard. The base rom is the same, but with new features and fixes to a few bugs found in XM6r3.
XM6r4 is built on the OS 5.2.318 Build 15342.4.0.01 rom that was provided to us by InGeNeTiCs from Howard Forums. While this is not the "newest" release of WM6, it is the last known release that was built for the Wizard (ie: its not a port from another HTC Device). Various pieces of the base rom have been upgraded, so some of it is stuff ported from other phones so that it can have newer functionality. Overall, I feel this base is very stable and fast and makes a great base to cook on.
Please Note: this ROM was NOT intended to push the limits on speed optimization or memory optimization. It was made to be functional, stable, and something that I myself wanted and will use. I've found it to very quick and responsive (especially with Overclocking with BatteryStatus), and so far Battery life has been very good for me and those beta testing this. If you have a Battery Drain issue, make sure you flashed back to an official rom before you upgraded to this one, as that should correct extended rom corruption that has been shown to cause battery draining. BatteryStatus is NOT included in this ROM. If you want to overclock or use other features of BatteryStatus, you are welcome to download and install the latest version of BatteryStatus yourself. I personally use it, and have OMAP set to 247MHz with CPUscalar set from 143 to 247 and Boost set to 260Mhz.
Base ROM Information
The base rom was an "Official" Wizard WM6 ROM that was part of the development cycle of WM6 inside of Microsoft (Dogfood as they call it). The base rom was not a port of another device rom with drivers and stuff pieced and parted onto this one, but this was an actual Wizard WM6.
Windows Mobile 6, OS 5.2.318 Build 15342.4.0.01
ROM Version: 10.1.0.811 WWE
ROM Date: 08/11/06
Protocol: 4.1.13.09
There is no Radio, IPL, SPL or Extended ROM included in this (so its G4 "safe").

Mods made from XM6r3
In addition to the apps listed above, the following fixes and mods were made to improve the user experience on XM6r4
Changing ringtone now stays changed when you leave the Phone app
Using press and hold on CommManager button toggles vibrate on and off, and phone does NOT stay stuck in vibrate / no ring mode
Regional Settings default to English (United States) and use a slash for the date seperator (M/dd/yyyy)
Menu sounds work by default
Pressing the "End Call" button does not disconnect GPRS but minimized the active application. Pressing and holding the "End Call" button for about 5 seconds will do a GPRS Disconnect
Internet access over ActiveSync (USB) connection works (You must apply a registry fix on your PC first. See the next post for the fix)
D pad now works differently with PIE. Up and down presses on the D Pad stay the same, but pressing right jumps forward a page and pressing left jumps backwards a page. Makes going through websites easier (IMO).
Fixed the A2DP registry for sampling
Registry Entries for PIE Connections to speed page loading
Registry Entries to increase In Call Volume
Press Button 1 for messaging (like normal) or hold it a little longer and HTC Action will come up (via HButton)
WkTask setup to not show Phone and Activesync as running apps in task bar
QuickMenu enabled for nice drop down and cascading start menu
Touch Scroll only is active so use your finger to scroll in most places
Requirements
You MUST have an IPL and SPL at 2.xx or higher (BOTH not just one or the other).
You MUST be running ActiveSync 4.5 on Windows XP (Vista comes with the correct sync utility, although there have been issues reported about Vista and sync'ing with PPC's so be aware of that).
Before you attempt to upgrade to this ROM, Please follow this thread to learn how to flash roms, CID unlock your phone, and how to fix issues you may run into! It is also recommended that you flash your phone with a Windows XP computer and not Vista. It will work with Vista, but if you run into problems Vista can't talk to a phone in Bootloader mode!
Recomendations
I HIGHLY Recommend that you flash back to an official rom before upgrading to this (or any) custom rom so you have a clean base (and correct any Extended ROM corruption you might have). G4 users would flash back to their provider's latest official release or the Wizard Love ROM. G3 users can use T-Mobile 2.26 for a good base.
If you use BatteryStatus (its NOT included in the rom!) to overclock, I don't recommend overclocking above 260Mhz, and the CPUscaler settings in BatteryStatus should not be set to a min lower than 143MHz (or your device may not wake back up after going to sleep).
Newer Radio ROMs on WM6 have had issues in the past (especially for Cingular / AT&T users). T-Mobile 2.19 (UK or NL versions) seems to be the most stable, but you can now run newer radios with the attached cab. This cab also works for some other providers but not for all, so its up to you to test what works for your phone.
Credits
I've moved the credits to the 5th post of this thread as this post has become too big.
Known Issues
When entering a contact in the "To:" field it does not link to the outlook contacts, it instead shows suggested words. You can tap the word "to" and it will go to the contact list no problem. Also, when trying to select a file to send no file names or pictures are displayed just empty square boxes, you can tap the box and it will go to the next sub folder, if it is a folder. There are no thumbnails or files listed so it is impossible to navigate to select a picture or video. Click Here to download patch
After the initial flash, some have reported that QuickMenu pops open the start menu when you are supposed to tap the screen to start the phone setup. Just wait a second or two and it will close by itself.
The base rom has a bug / feature where if GPRS is active, unanswered calls may not show up as a missed call and may not give notification of the unanswered call. If this happens, the unanswered call shows up in the history as an answered call with a duration of 1 or 2 seconds.

How to not have a 24hour Clock (or how to show AM/PM)
This works on all WM6 roms
Go to Start > Settings > System > Regional Settings
Make sure you have the correct Region selected
Click on the Time tab
Click on the drop down box for Time Style
Notice the little up and down arrows? This is a scrolling region in this dropdown. Click the up arrow a couple of times and you'll find h:mm:ss tt
Thats it. Microsoft is amazing at having a 2 line scrolling region on this dropdown. You'd think they would have had at least 3 or 4 lines show up for chosing (and it would be more obvious that its a scrolling region then too).
GPRS / MMS Setups
First, here is The Ultimate Thread with people posting operator settings for about all providers! In the first post is a link to the thread where walshieau is creating an automated way of setting up all of these!

Splash Screens and Splash Only RUU for G4
For G4 users, Click Here for the RUU with the Splash Screens of this rom (since you don't get them when you use the shell tool). As I understand it, this is completely safe for a G4 as its nothing but splash screens (no OS, IPL, SPL, Extended ROM, etc, just splash and htc logo screens). I've also placed the .bmp files that make up the splash screen in the zip file so you can see them directly before flashing this.
If you have problems flashing the above RUU on a G4, then extract this http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=29158&d=1152698784 and pull the nk.nbf file out of the above Splash Screen file and put it into the directory of this one and run this RUU. You can use the same method for flashing the Radio Only ROM (pull the nk.nbf file out of the radio only rom and put it into the directory of this RUU and run it). Thanks anichillus for that link! You can also check this thread for another RUU that is in English and seems to work for most G4 users. Thanks Vippie!
Weather Panel Setup
See my post in the Wizard forum on how I setup WeatherPanel. It will give you a fixed dll with correct moon phases through 2008, new/better Moon phase icons, and a cool theme called Chameleon-240 QVGA. I dumped SBSH Pocket Weather after seeing this setup
Hermes Black Cabs that may be of Interest
Transcriber can be added back into XM6r4 by using the Black 3 Add-on CABs file. There may be others in it that may be of interest also for some. Included in this file is Cyberon VoiceCommander, Cyberon Voice Dial, VIjay555 utils, and a Slingbox patch (none of these I've tested).

BatteryStatus (for Overclocking, CPUScalar, and much much more)
BatteryStatus is a very popular utility around here and for good reasons. Currently its in a beta phase and the author is releasing new versions of the beta constantly so I decided not to put it in the rom and let people install whatever build of it they want. Also, some versions of BatteryStatus have been known to cause excessive battery drain, so be aware of that too. You can find it in the Official BatteryStatus thread and if you do use it, feel free to give feedback on it in that thread as they are always looking for ways to improve it.
NOTE: If you do use overclocking, I recommend you use the OMAP Apps tab to setup Camera to be at 195Mhz as it can mess up the display if you are overclocked and doing the camera.

Included in this rom is SK tsync, which will synchronize your phone to time servers. I've included in \Windows a special link called tsync silent.lnk . You can copy this link (with TotalCommander or use WinXplore) to your \Windows\Startup folder and it will allow your phone to sync its time after a reboot. Famewolf also wrote a Mortscript for easy install (since Mortscript is part of this rom). Click Here to download this script, then just place it on your phone and run it, and it will copy this shortcut to your Startup folder for you.
MobileJustice v0.8
MobileJustice is an Anti-theft app that you can configure on your phone. Just go to Start > Programs > Accessories and click on the MJConfig icon (first time in you will get a message that there isn't a config file, just click ok and it will be created). To us this, check the Enabled box, then click Add on the Allowed line. You can then setup your SIM card as an authorized one, and add other SIM cards IMSI numbers if you use more than one. Next click on Add next to Report to: and setup an SMS number (wife, friend, colleague) where you want the text message to go to if an unauthorized SIM is put into your phone. You can add multiple SMS numbers if you want. At this point, your phone will now be setup so that if an unauthorized sim is put in it, then it will send an SMS (with no record of it being sent) to your Report To list on the next boot (you can test this by not setting up (or removing) the Allowed and then doing a soft reset).
For more advanced, you can turn on the Disp MsgBox at the top and then put in some text in the MsgBox text line. This will pop up a Message box on the screen of the phone after a boot, if an unknown sim is in the phone.
You can also enable RMon (bottom half of the screen), put in a pass phrase, and then turn on MsgBox (GPS and LocCall do not work on Wizards, and the other options haven't been implemented in this version). By doing this, you can now send an SMS to your phone in the following format:
+m passphrase message
Rmon will intercept the sms message (so it will not show up as a received message), and if the passphrase matches the one you put in the configuration, then it will pop up a message box on the phone with your message in it (so you can secretly send messages to the thief to possibly intimediate them (or whatever).
The project page for MobileJustice is located at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mjustice/

Faria for providing the initial ROM Kitchen that got me cooking
anichillus for the fantastic Hyper Core ROM Kitchen which was exclusively used in the production of this ROM
Dr Puttingham for the guides, information he has provided to all of us
Molski for having a nice tutorial on various cooking tools and providing easy access to info at http://www.molski.biz

Famewolf for constantly pointing me to new apps, new versions, and posts about features like BlueTooth DUN to add into the rom.
Those that took the time to help alpha and beta test XM6 Release 4 (Rudi, Peter, and Ben). We worked out a number of issues with a nice quick beta test (XM6r3 beta worked out most of the real bugs so this one was "easy" )!
Everyone that installed and gave feedback and support on the other XDA Mobile 6 threads
Everyone that I thanked in my other ROM releases!
I thought there were going to be door prizes...didn't we agree on door prizes? No mouse pad?
Great job once again mfrazzz on the rom!
^..^
congratulations..
This really is an excellent release Thank you, Mike, and happy Thanksgiving..
One remark though, for everyone who may see the QuickMenu popping up at the first boot after the flashing: You don't need to click anywhere to make QM disappear, it will hide itself after a few seconds and you can continue to the initial configuration of the Wizard.
Release 3 is one of the best roms, i was waiting for next version.
Thanks for this one, will flash it today.

Good job
Release 3 was one the most stable ROM for WIZARD, I have noticed so far.
Wish the same for release 4 too.
Thank you
Happy thanksgiving.
I'm curious, what happens to my apps installed on my storage memory? Will I have to reinstall everything? I'm uprading from Release 3.

If your apps require registry entries more than likely you will have to reinstall them..they may or may not keep your settings depending on whether the settings were kept in the file or in the registry. (usually the registry)...any documents or files stored on the card should be fine however.
Here is a mortscript which may be of use to people reinstalling...it's called Reload..I am not the original author..I just made a few changes.....these instructions are taken from the Readme.txt inside:
How to setup:
1)Extract Reload.zip to the root of your storage card.
2)Place cab files in the CabsAuto folder if you want to the cab to be automatically installed to the phone storage.
3)Place cab files in the CabsManual folder if you want to be able to choose where to install the cab.
4)Place file in the Backup.zip file that you want to be restored to root of phone.
ie. If you wanted example.jpg to be placed in the \Windows folder, place example.jpg in the Windows folder of the zip file.
5)Place file in the SDBackup.zip file that you want to be restored to Storage Card.
*Please note that the cabs files placed in the CabsAuto folder need to conform to only asking the user for the installation destination, then showing installation successful/unsuccessful. Otherwise you might encounter some problems. You should place cabs that don't conform in the CabsManual folder, or adjust these cabs with programs such as WinCE CAB Manager.
###############################################
How to use:
2)Execute Reload.mscr. This will initiate the script that will first install the CabsAuto, then CabsManual, restore the files in the Backup.zip file if it exists, and finally restore the files in the SDBackup.zip file if it exists..
###############################################
Please note that files in CabsAuto are cleared out as they are installed so you may want to have a "CabsAuto.save" you copy over before a Reload.

WOW! - One Question
This looks like an amazing release. I haven't flashed my phone since TNT 4.0, but I am going to try this tomorrow night for sure. Just one question, does this have the fixes so that there are no problems with the missed call notifications when using GPRS or during another call?
Thanks a lot for your hard work again mfrazzz!

As stated this is mentioned as a known issue in the first post still. Never got from its right what the fix was (and may just be an issue with 318).
Awesome Job!
Once again, an awesome job mfrazzz. Keep it up. I have been using the XM6R3 until today.
An awesome collection of apps in this release.

The radio fix?
The Radio fix (XDA Cingular WM6 Radio Fix2.cab) ... has that already been applied and, if not, what does it fix exactly?
Which could be causing my problem? My girlfriend isn't getting my texts and she has verizon. Is it the 2.19 radio rom, this rom, or the T-mobile settings I chose?
I found it at http://www.mpx.gen.tr and I have been using it with no problems.

I have tried other WM6.1 ROM, but there was problem with EDGE/GPRS radio, it was not connecting to the internet. I hope this one will be working. I will come with comments soon!
Good job! The gprs radio is working good, the connection to the internet is now possible.
The look of this ROM is nice, also it has suitable programs, so I have to say after some time: upgrade it, if you can!
GSM network
How can force GSM network, it only works with 3G, my operator is YOIGO from Spain.
Thank You
T9 polish
If someone need in enclosure dictionary is Polish T9
Just updated my g500 everything went pretty smooth and took only few minutes.. Phone works much much better and faster - that's really fantastic! GPRS, EDGE, BT OBEX and AD2P perform flawless, looks like this rom is really stable, thanks to adilyildiz and emilio666 for posting it here.
One question for those who also updated - do you have 3G network working fine?
thanks a lot, gonna try it!
GPRS % MMS for Yoigo (Spain)
Someone have parameters of configuration for them?
How can be changed between GPRS and 3G from Registry?
I've been using another WM6.1 ROM which let me change this setting from the Control Panel, but this one doesn't seem to have it.
Thanks in advance

It doesn't have Mode change option in Phone Setting and looks like 3G won't work. I spent half day trying to find registry hack but no luck. There is another ROM from Darex (www.myg500.pl) where 3G works and bands can be changed.
lineus: Thanks a lot. Now I'm running Polish version (0.38a I think) and I think it's a bit better that the other one.
Anyway, GPRS and MMS is not possible for me. I'm using Spanish YOIGO. Even Toshiba assistant doesn't send me any configuration now (firmware maybe?)

And please tell me if you know any other ROM's for this mobile (even WM5), I'm trying to make a backup of my original one from Yoigo.
Thanks!
Just bought this Smartphone to replace my beloved Tornado (SP5), and sucessfully updated to WM6.1 with this ROM.
Everything seems to be working perfectly, but I will need some more time to test everything out.
Good work and thanks for sharing!

Ok, after some hours of testing, I only found two problems with this WM6.1 ROM for the Toshiba G500:
-after running the integrated Windows Live Messenger for the first time, and activating the Home Screen tab, I noticed there are icons missing on this tab. Instead of those I'm getting a red cross picture.
-everytime I open a SMS, it appears slightly paged down, hiding the sent date and time information on top. I must press "Up" once to reveal this information.
Overall this seems a great ROM indeed, a must have for all G500 owners!
can someone tell me where i can find the password? my polish is ... not good
NEW IMPROVED cab. Click HERE
*********
WM6.5 Only
*********
7 cabs for different tastes.
Tested and working on HD2 with no problem with good sound. It`s best to install on fresh OS. First install any of the "Ear/VoIP"(to enable native voip) cabs then install WOW HD included in attachment for louder sound and set all values to 100% except first one(srs 3d). Port 5060 enabled by default(make sure forward 5060 port in router for (possible) 2 way communication.
Please leave your Comments/Suggestions.
All credit goes to developers who invested thier time and effort to develop these programes, I was just able to combine them and made cabs + did some extra setting over 3 year period, as i have gained knowledge on this subject. These cabs are based on G.711 codec, so bit hungry on network. I advise to use these cabs on WLan with good reception.
Thanks.
09-05-2010
* Microsoft bug fixed found in all these cabs
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
sip/voip = native voip support + config tool
Wlan = Wireless always on
Ear = Sound comes out from earpiece
Dial = Dial Plan (doesn`t work)
Reg = PHM Registry editor
SRS =Increase Volume(louder)
+++refer attached files below++++
Thanks very much!
Tested and working

hi shah, I am in process of making new voip cab based on g711 codec with volume increase inbuilt plus 5060 port forward enabled by default. I will upload with in a week, are you using 6.1 or 6.5.
Reason for voice problem would be your ISP or Mobile carrier blocking packets.
Create Dialplan
Hi,
installing the cab was easy going but i am struggling with the configuration...
When i use the "create dialplan" tool, enter my configs and afterwards hit the "create" button it tells me that everything's fine. But where can i find this dialplan? I expected some file in the directory of the config tool or at least something on the dialplan tab in the config tool...
I tried several times (of course with reset afterwards) but always the same -- my configurations seemed to be lost.
What am i doing wrong?
Is the provider (t-mobile in my case) capable to lock the WM6.5 VoIP feature?
I have already tried several other solutions (fring and other softphones) without success...
BTW: if everything works what happens? How could i see that VoIP is active?
Thanks!!
Joerg
VOIP Almost working
Thanks for the Cabs. I was able to get Internet Dailing set up on my FUZE w/ stock 6.5ROM. I did the SIP provisioning with my provider and I can receive calls now. But, when I dial, I see that a "9" is automatically entered in front of the number I'm dialing which doesn't allow my SIP SIPsorcery/Sipgate dial plan to dial the number correctly. How can I fix this?

Play with DialPlan according to your country code, area code. Otherwise try cab without DialPlan. See if it works. Thanks

Looks like the files haven't been updated yet? Were these going to be put in a new thread?
Hi,
any screenshots and has anyone tested this in WM6.5.x?
thanks
This Ip Dial Plan Creator works. Credits to the author Jaap De-Wolff. It is the best i have found to set up VOIP.
I use the attached files to install Native VOIP in to all my WM phones and currently working great on my 6.5.5 ROM from Dutty HG_11.
Also the attached AutoAudioRoute (Credits to oruam57) which routes the audio to the earpiece for both VOIP and SKYPE calls. You need to first install AudioRoute 1.2.020 from Teksoft then delete the AudioRoute link file from the Start Up folder before installing this CAB.
Link to the thread in signature below.
I will like to check out your Ear Cab to see how it works and report back.
EDIT: I checked your CAB files (VoipEar & VoipDialEar) and found that you have an error in the .inf files with the regedit line:
reg_path18 = Software\Microsost\Today\Items\Internet Calling
It should read "Microsoft" rather than "Microsost"
Thanks for reporting this bug

will correct this today. Thanks

when you say 'native' does this make voip the default dialer?
is it capable of switching back to normal radio?
how does it work

By Native i mean it is the "built in" Windows mobile VOIP version rather than a 3rd party installed "soft phone". Your Call carrier will always be the default phone service provider.
On the today screen, once you have installed the CAB file and registered with a VOIP service provider and filled in the SIP Configuration, you will see a line on your Today screen (if you have disabled Manila and gone back to the original WM Today screen. This will show your SIP provider and status:
SipDiscount: Available
OR
SipDiscount: Selected
Only when in the SELECTED mode will your phone dial out on the VOIP service otherwise all calls will go out on the Mobile carrier. You will be able to receive VOIP calls when ever "Available" or "Selected" are the display mode.
I only really use VOIP for making calls overseas as it is much cheaper than even using SKYPE for calling out to land lines or Mobiles Internationally.
thanks for quick clear reply

WM6.1, SIP available but not selected
Hi,
I'm trying to use WM6.1 SIP instead of fring with which I've no problem to make SIP calls.
When using the WM6.1 SIP soft and SIP config Tool, I manage to set my account, I see my SIP provider available in the today screen, but I cannot select it. When clicking on available, I go to the phone settings but the status remains available (instead of selected) and my calls use GSM.
Does somebody knows how to fix that problem ?
My PDA is an AIRIS T483 with WM6.1 and up to know I had no problem when installing and using pocket PC softs !
Thank's in advance !
