Good morning all,
I'm a very new member, and I'm looking to upgrade my device to WM6.1.
Details of my device:
O2 Xda Exec, Monthly Contract O2 SIM, WM5.0, OS 5.1.1.1700 (Build 14354.0.1.1), Processor PXA270-520MHz, Memory 49.96MB.
I'm a writer and use Word, Notes (including recordings), Active Sync (Vista Laptop with Windows Mobile Device Centre, email (hotmail and ntl), phone, texting, camera--I think that's all.
My biggest problems with 5.0 are that I can't edit Word 2007 documents (.docx) and can't use SDHC cards. So really, I want a basic (vanilla?) version that behaves pretty well like the proprietory product. I'm not really too interested in lots of additional apps.
Bearing in mind that I'm very much a user, I'd be very grateful if somebody could advise me as to a ROM that's:
a) stable;
b) easy to install;
c) has all the features of 6.1; and finally
d) not too many whizz-bangs.
I appreciate that a lot of time, effort and expense goes into producing the ROMs--so I'm prepared to make a comensurate donation.
Cheers,
Plantaen.
I think Tomal 8.2 will do for you. Its the most stable and fast ROM I have come accross. Another new version from TOmal is in Beta 2 stage. May be you can upgrade to that as well once the final version released.
Read Wiki
Would first advise you to go through Wiki and understand what you are trying to do and find whether your Universal (O2 XDA Exec) is fully unlocked etc.,
Read as much as you can in Wiki as it helps to prevent future messup as anything going wrong could end up your Uni just a costly paper weight.
Tomal's ROMs are great and once you are sure that your phone is fullly unlocked in all respects, you can try any flavour starting from 7.7 through 8.5
Hope this helps.
Regards
I would recommend Tomal's Vanilla version: http://vidmes.com/xda/Uni/ROMs/Tomal...960_VANILA.exe. Give that a try and see how you like it.

if you look for serious word editing, I would suggest you to use the softmaker http://www.softmaker.com/english/
Regarding a ROM.. I would suggest Tomal V 7.6 or 7.7. my personal favoured is V7.7.
Anyhow before doing something on the rom read carefully and bring you up to speed. I heart upgrade on Vista cn be tricky so you need to find info and make sure you have at least bootlaoder > v1
Maybe U don't need to upgrade your ROM
Hi, Plantaen.
I think maybe U don't need too upgrade Ur ROM, U can try these :
1. file : PsiDocSDHC.cab, so U can read Ur SDHC Card In Ur Uni in ROM WM 5, like I do. U can search this file in this ROM.
2. I think U can save as Ur document in doc format, rather than docx format.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

After running the exe and upgrading, my XDA fails to respond
Hi, i used the "http://vidmes.com/xda/Uni/ROMs/Tomal/TML_v82_WM61_19960_VANILA.exe" to upgrade my XDA Executive and after the upgrade was over it asked me to soft reset my device, i did that and the screen displays Press '0' to restore factory settings or 'X' to cancel. the device is non responsive after that, pressing '0' or 'x' just exits and the device doesn't reboot. How can i now use my device? Please help.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
thanks for the link, it looks all very confusing, which 1 do i install?
At the moment i have wm2003 2nd edition ver 4.21.1088 (build 15045.2.6.0)
Thanks
Alan
If it looks confusing, it's probably best that you don't mess with it until it stops looking confusing.
Everything you need to know is there, I suggest you spend more time in understanding what you need to do before you jump in and mess up your device.
thats exactly what i was thinking, thanks, could you tell me what advantages i would get by upgrading?
Thanks
Alan
The ability to run WM5, persistent storage, and access to WM5 only applications.
There are a whole host of reasons why WM5 is better than 2003se, and many older posts that answer that very question.
Take a look on the blueangel forum and go back a year or so. There's many posts tha go into lots of detail about the pros and cons.
I've been a visitor of this sight for years, but never felt the need to post before. The reason I'm posting now is because there has been a flood of different wm6 roms that have been released. I have tried a couple and for the past week have been unsuccessful in getting them to work with BBconnect.
I have tried diffrenet mods like typhoonnbfdecode to get bbconnect to work but with no success. I've seen others have had luck but I'm not as fortunate. Browsing other devices' forums, I've seen much more support for the Hermes and the Universal. Some of the new roms that have come out for those devices have BBConnect support built in! It seems that the Wizard is not getting the same level of support.
This brings us to why I'm posting this thread. Those that have new wm6 Wizard roms under development, please be kind enough to include bbconnect support in that rom. If a rom already exists that has this included, please feel free to post it here. I've tried 3 different versions of bbconnect and have settled on BBConnect 2.1.2.54 as being the newest and most stable.
If anyone has a simple hack that works with the new WM6 Business Edition rom, please feel free to give detailed steps on how to make BBconnect work with it. That is the rom currently on my phone, but I have no problem trying a different rom if it supports BBConnect upon installation.
Thanks in advance.

With all the rush, I almoust forgot about it. I will try this man, but after the core is ready and all problems are gone. That's my first concern right now.
Also. has anyonw tryed this in a Wizard ? If so, don't be shy, let's talk. I always enjoy knowing more.
g0dblissyou, don't leave the forum, because I will hunt you for this request. You will test it because I cannot. I don't use that and for now, I have no idea what it is. Be a little pacient, BlackBerry Connect will be integrated.
It's good to know that someone is planning to implement this in their rom. I am anxious to put a stable wm6 rom with bbconnect on my wizard. Thanks for everyone's involvelment on this issue. Looking forward to this.
USA T-Mobile
Will this work on USA T-Mobile?
Hopefully, it will work on T-Mobile USA. That's the service I use. I have read on other forums that there has been success using bbconnect on T-Mobile with the wizard. But the roms were edited to get a complete connection.
Maybe someone with more knowledge can chime in to shed light on their experience.
If you guys want it so bad, then do the following.
Search and find all settings, and send me a "how to". I couldn't possibly know all this , I'm just human.
Stick to the point, for example :
"Do this and that, make that change...."
I'm over my head right now, I promissed a rock solid, ultra fast and ultra clean base rom and I want to keep my promiss...so work work work...
If you could provide the right "how to" I could include it in the base, so you'll have 2 base roms, 1 with BB Connect and one simple.
I'll search around and find out what exactly needs to be done. Then, I'll forward the info to you, anichillus.
g0dblissyou said in his post that he was sending you the steps to include bbconnect, but I'll search around and get the info for you.

He did send me a link but I am waay to busy right now for reading, sorry... that's why I was asking for a full how to....
Hope you understand g0dblissyou, If you said you did it, I would need you to tell me exactly how ... step by step, I think there's no noob bigger than me in bbconnect
I think this was the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298936 ...didn't had time to read though
I wasn't successful in getting to work with any roms I had. I read post after post of others saying they got it to work. Yet, there was no comprehensive step by step guide on how to edit the rom for bbconnect. General steps were covered but I didn't see any posts that gave great details.
After hours of frustration and aggravation, I decided to start this thread asking for someone to add it to their rom. Hopefully, g0dblissyou will send you the details needed, because I'm not sure I'll be successful in getting all the steps right.
BB Conect working on wm6.
I compiled a new nbf file, flashed the phone, changed the AKU (if you don't do this, BB will connect but not pull any emails).
In the log it used the same data as with my previous rom (5.1.195, bb version 2.2.16 and AKU 0.2.0.0).
All thanks to c0rnholio. Everybody else with a wizard (and rom WM6...):
1. Use typhoonnbfdecode_v5 to extract the 800310000-os.nb
In the command prompt:typhoonnbfdecode_v5 -x nk.nbf (to extract the nk.nbf file)
2. Then use HEXEDIT to change:
05 20 A0 E3 02 10 A0 E3 A5 EF A0 E3
into
05 20 A0 E3 01 10 A0 E3 C3 E0 A0 E3
3. Then use nb2nbf_tornado to recreate the nk.nbf. Put in:
Model: WIZARD
Language: WWE
OEM: empty
Version: empty
CID: Empty (very important)!
Select File 1 the changed 8... .nb file.
Yes, once you enter that it is OS and put the cursor in the START field, it will default to 82040000. You have to change this to 80040000 and then press enter to start the process. The guide is correct in stating that you have to change it manually.
then flash the nk.nbf to your phone, change the AKU and that's it!!!
The AKU is like a core of the system (that's how I explain it to myself). The new AKU will be .0.0.0 You'll have to change this to .2.0.0 in the registry.
Use TotalCommander (free download), go to the REgistry, HKLM\system\version and then double click on AKU. There you can change the version. Then Swich off the phone (don't press Reset, otherwise the registry entry will not be saved) and restart.
Oh you also need the software ...BBConnect_PocketPC_BB_2[1][1].1.2.31
Just curious as to what BlackBerry Connect actully does for an Windows Mobile device? Is this like an alternative to using an Exchange server for push with WM devices? If that's the case, would I have to switch from my unlimited data with T-Mobile to an blackberry data service? Will T-Mobile do this switch?
You guys are awesome
I don't have a clue how to go about doing this. Every time I try to research it, I get completely hopelessly lost. It is something I've been wanting for some time though. Thanks much for working on it.
BBconnect would make your device emulate a Blackberry Device. You would need to get the Blackberry service from your provider and have your account configured for it.
My employer refuses to use wizard devices to access our microsoft exchange server. They tell me to buy a Blackberry, and they are perfectly willing to pay to get me connected. I just can't stand the d*(^(m things.
Anichillus if you put BB Connect in your next rom you will be my biggest herO! i have tried to do typhoon thing but i just dont have the ability enough to edit myself.
Thank you for all your hard work!!!

anichillus,
The later versions of bbconnet(.52 and .54) aren't specific to any carrier. I would suggest putting one of those later versions in the rom. That way, they'll work for various devices on different networks. Also, including it in the rom ensures that it's working properly for all those who eagerly want this.

Ok guys, so WM6 on Tornado exists (currently running on my device as we speak). But there are quite a few things we need to sort out before it can be released 'En Masse' Before this time I will ignore ALL PMs asking for the ROM.
There is a WM6 comments/suggestion/speculation thread HERE. Feel free to put in requests for embedded apps etc, but please realise we won't be able to put in EVERYTHING. So when the ROM is at a more completed stage we will draw up a shortlist for the apps etc to be embedded and let you vote it out
Current Issues:
Still has identifying build numbers etc to my source
Doesn't sync at all with a PC but will sync over exchange
It says WM5 with MSFP when its really WM6 (OS 5.2.xxx)
No Camera
No MMS
Issues fixed:
Wifi not accessable - new comm manager
No Office (fixed with a cab)
No t9 - updated to xT9 with 14 languages (fixed with a cab)
WLM is still beta and so needs removing and then updating (fixed with WLM RTM cab)
Things we need from a Tornado WM5 ROM
Camera.exe with all the mui extensions
Lets keep this thread clean, ok? I don't want sh!t loads of n00bs saying "where can I download ROM?". So, before you ask, here's my answer. YOU CAN'T DOWNLOAD IT UNTIL ITS FINISHED!!!!
If a mod could remove such posts i'd be forever grateful
Please only post if you have information regarding how to fix the issues I've outlined above.
Phil
So... i am Alex from ronswens forum. i promise to fix that if you give me the rom and you can contact me via ICQ .. we need at least 3 tests - first, we upgrade xip, then new os build and then fix the camera...
T9 now fixed, office added, WLM fixed
Phil

I think this is the sort of n00b-ish comment jm012a9749's trying to avoid in this thread.
I mean, honestly, do you think he believes he's the only one to have attained a tornado version? Come on...
Look, this guy is aware of Duke's efforts, heck we all are, but the more people who get involved, the more efficiently we can get a polished product. There's no guarantee that Duke nor jm012a9749 will be able to do anything, so why should any of us sit back and not get involved? Besides, Duke himself has mentioned that he needs help since he's not an experienced Rom cooker.
Sorry for the rant here, but this sort of attitude really bothers me. Saying "oh, someone's already doing that, sit back and don't waste your time" is why certain projects never see the light of day...
Please only post helpful information or questions!
you can fix activesync by replacing the usbfn.dll file.

Exactly, since day 1 I've been working with duke_stix to help get a working version of crossbow. However now that I've made some progress and actually HAVE a device myself to test on, I felt it was nessary to start a new thread dedicated to it rather than the old dump rom thread
@faria, will try this later, thanks for the advice

Stuff
Maybe you can find some useful stuff here:
http://218.93.115.138/d900/
You can have the WIFI option appear on its current Comm Manager thru Registry.. i have tried it and it worked.. but anyway, glad the new Comm Manager worked also..
The new comm manager also has flight mode, beam and IP Phone buttons on it

I don't know if we have the same build or version jm012a9749 but the following bugs are present on mine..

FIX:
HKLM - Software - Miscrosoft - Shell
DELETE - "DeviceBETA" key
You can't open the Sound in Settings (Settings - Sounds)
Culprit could be the file soundsgsm.cpl.xml on /windows/ directory

1. the vibrate function can provide you hours of enjoyment, with proper placement (external or internal, your choice)
2. install as many programs as possible, filling up both main memory and storage card, using them once or twice then never use them again. after flashing a new rom, install a new assortment of software you probably don't need.
3. re-encode your favourite pr0n to ppc scaling and impress your friends with today's pocket pr0n.
4. port over wm5 from the wizard (blinding speeds, you won't be sorry)
5. read ALL the stickies in Kaiser upgrading area of forum (this isn't near as fun as the other suggestions, but you'll be able to answer your own questions, and be comfortable in the knowledge that you can hack your phone "without any help")
1 and 3 make a nice combo too!
Yes there is a WM6.1 upgrade, i am using Shaps at the moment and it seems to work fine for me.
WM6.1 doesnt give you a huge amount new, Shaps 6.1 rom for me has been stable and quick, i dont tend to install much on my phones though other than the included stuff. I do a few bits and install TomTom. 6.1 has threaded sms which is nice but has some annoying little issues, like i cant seem to find a way to forward sms messages any more. bit annoying.
Flicking through some of the other forums people seemed to be muttering about not being able to sync there 6.1 phones with ex2003, i use ex2007 though so i cant comment, mine works fine.
Havent noticed any bad sound quality over bluetooth. Be more specific though, do you mean stereo bluetooth or just normal.
I use the htc home plugin looks nice and works well.
Hope i have helped.
Rob
ps. Remember before you rush out and start flashing roms, read the wiki and things. You have to do stuff like hard spl and things first.
If i were you i would do it in this order.
1. hard spl
2. sim unlock (if needed)
3. wm 6.1 rom
4. radio rom

You are one sick and twisted individual and I like it.
Start with the beginning of the internet at www.www.com and read through the entire thing.
I like to turn on wifi, 3g, gps, and bluetooth and use my kaiser to keep my coffee warm.
Hi,
I am quite new to Win Mobile Smartphones, but however I managed to get to a certain point where I started to build my application collection. Unfortunately there are a lot of questions of mine, to which I am not able to find answers, and since this is the biggest community of that kind, which i was able to find (not very easy) i think that it is proper to ask you for your kind assistance , I hope that i would not annoy you. I would try to organize my questions and request as neat as possible. I guess that they would be useful for all HTC Tornado Noobies
1. Please link me to the best Office Suit for the Tornado.
2. I may find quite useful the full version of SK Tools - currently i use a version of the software meant for Pockect PC, it is working, but it actually lacks the feature which arranges the menu in list not a grind ...
3. Skype - I use Fring, but there are too many bugs, unfortunately i did not find a straight forward instruction on how to install skype. I think that IM+ for Skype would do the job, but it is paid .... I need skype for chat only no VoIP intentions.
4. I use Opera Mobile, but if you have came across any better browsing solution - please share it
5. How could i remove anything except the clock, the date and the recently used programs from the home screen, the appointments, messages etc. are quite useless for me.
6. Could i use 4GB SanDisk with the Qtek 8310, and if so would i face any problems.
7.Please share any build quality issues and opinions, which you have experienced, I guess that the weak spots are the Joystics and the screen (it seems so weak to scratches). I am also get quite annoyed by the dust under the screen so please tell would it appear.
Many thanks for the help in advanace!

Best advice, you need to take your time and read the threads. You'll find many answers to your concerns. I've added some options for you. Check above >>
Thank you for the detailed answer to my questions!!!
I would surely try your suggestions, and today i started reading the threads in the Tornado section, but from page 71 towards the present moment... it will take some time
I would highly appreciate some more opinions, i would post mine for the newly downloaded applications, suggested by @markanthonypr. Many thanks once again.

I am using a 4GB on my tornado and some people on this forum are also using 4GB. But it should be normal miniSD (non-HCSD).
