I followed the instructions Kaiser ROM Kitchen Tutorial in the wiki.
Cooked a few ROMs, flashed it couple of times. Tried making own packages.
Now while experimenting I tried some more recent ROMs and fetched the most recent (Kaiser_HTC_ASIA_HK_WWE_3.34.721.2) of the HTC Kaiser ROM from the wiki.
While screwing around with it, I couldn't help noticing that if I flash the ROM I cooked it always shows an old version of WM. Now it shows WM6 but I am sure I flashed WM6.1 . Did I do something wrong while cooking? Is this just the version shown or is it really an old version? I do not have a clue.

I would start with cooking by dumping and cooking off this base dude.
I wonder if you are making some simple mistake like flashing the wrong image , have the wrong file in the Base ROM or maybe having a WM6 rom dumped in the kitchen.
To be sure...
Clear out your kitchen so you only have the tools needed. Then put the 3.34 in the Base ROM and dump it. Add an OEM package (a simple non HTC app i.e. S2U2), cook and flash and see what happens

k, I'll give it a try.
thanks
edit: Seems like reusing a kitchen isn't such a good idea. I think this just cleared up. Thanks guys.

I agree. It is time to upgrade my friend... There are so many roms out there that are almost 100% stable with everything working and not all of them include all of the extra crap either... If you wanted to keep the same general look going on and not the touchflo if thats what you're trying to avoid, then look into some of the professional roms instead of the touch roms.
A good example is TNT5.0 Professional. It has all the amendaties of WM5 but also supports all of the WM6 software.
...Thats my opinion anyway

I've updated to WM6 many times with multiple roms, but they tend to lag in performance. Though one rom looks promicing is this one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331812
BUT! It's a Hermes rom and I have no Idea how to flash that onto a wizard. So instead of risking my Wizard to brick, I was hoping someone could possibly patch those cabs for WM5.
If anyone is looking for a little project, please patch those cabs on the first post.
Thank you
i use TNE with over clocking, with no problems. just as fast as wm5 if not faster.
touch no evil.
and dont flash a wm6 rom that wasnt built for the wizard.

give this rom a try. It was originally made by its right but I personally modified it to have a larger page pool and is quite fast.
It is a touchflo rom though... Not sure how fond you are of those style roms...

Well does anyone just have the base WM6 rom that I can flash? Nothing custom, just the standard, factory WM6 rom? Cuz that would be the only way I would be willing to upgrade. If not then I just want the cabs to work on WM5.

Well there is TNT Official... It's the closest to an actual OFFICIAL Wizard WM6 rom as you are going to get...
Install that(it is CLEAN, nothing on it really) and you can install anything you want if you're not interested in a custom rom.
You could also give this a once over...

Hey, I have a few questions about the wizard. to the chefs here.
I usually cook for herald, but a friend has a g4 qtec 9100, and he wants a rom from me. I started to cook, by port a kaiser rom to wizard, using kaiser sys and oem from a wizard.
Cooked in my packages, built the rom, and coverted to nk.nbf.
I flash with the shell tool. And here comes first question:
Since I have Vista, I presume that this is what cause some problems. When I use the shelltool, I get a "freeze" on the program (It dont answer) But I let it be on for aprox 20 min, when its "frozen"
The rom install fine, but the exrom dont install (In herald this is running fine after flashing the os.n
I tried same with a clean wizard rom, flash it, and no extrom loads??
second, my htc hme dont show up..weird...maybe its the reg settings that need to be changed?
Well, Im sure this is "silly questions" that all you chefs here has knowlege about, and im sure you have answered it many times before
BTW, have a look at my kaiser port to herald
Wing version
P4350 version
When its done and my friend is happy with it, I can post it here if anyone interested
And ill up a vanilla base rom to, with .rgu in it. if anyone wants it .) or just the oem, sys and rom folder
please post link with info and pics

Hey all. First of all, I'd like to thank all all the chefs creating ROM tutorials for newbs like me. I'm in japan and have 2 Kaisers, 1 is emobile's emonster, the other is from HTC and I'm using Softbank.
I wanted to extract emobile's ROM and flash it to my HTC so I would have 2 kaisers using emobile.
After going through all the tutorials, I successfully dumped and cooked the emobile ROM and created the nbh file. After flashing the HTC Kaiser with the emonster rom and powering it on, I get to the setup screen (it's in japanese so I guess I flashed the ROM correctly), but nothing happens after tapping the screen (none of the taps are getting recognized).
Has this happened to anyone after flashing? I tried a hard reset but the same thing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Maybe You something wrong.
Try other rom one more.
Try to cook the ROM with the HTC drivers on it, (touch screen ones) because maybe theres a little difference between the Emobile one and the HTC one!!

Can you point me in the right direction on how to include the HTC Drivers? Is it like a package I download and add while I'm cooking? I googled HTC drivers but came up with nothing.

Thanks so much for the quick reply!! I will try this tonight when I get home from work!!!
(Y) good luck, curiously, here is at night now xD
and a little question, does the emonster have the video drivers?? (for hardware acceleration )
by reading your first post again, a lot of ideas are coming to my mind right now, one is:
it could be the RADIO, that maybe is incompatible with the HTC kaiser, because the emonster has a different one or not? (f: 1700mhz)
and the HTC one doesnt have this freq.
so, maybe the radio is having issues with the current system because of hardware incompatibility.
No enhanced video drivers aside from radio weirdness it shoul be just like any of the windoze 6.0 Kaisers.

Thanks for your suggestion. I just recooked the rom with a touch.dll from an WWE rom as you suggested but nothing happens when tapping the screen.
You and Dejanet are correct that the emonster is on a 1.7Ghz frequency. So if there's any other suggestions you may offer, I'm all ears.
As Dejanet stated, unfortunately there are no improved video drivers
Thanks again...it's been a learning experience extracting, cooking, and flashing. I just don't know where to go from here...so close.....but soooooo far away hehe
do you know if emobile works on another frequency??..
if yes, you could try to cook the OS only, and use the emobile ROM with a RADIO from HTC. (obviously a compatible one, with your WM6 or WM6.1 )
give it a try ..
Since my goal was to get the phone switched to english. I tried flashing several of the OS only ROMS available here and ended up with a perfectly functional PDA but no phone.
could you provide the emonster ROM?
i'll try to get it compatible with the radio and a radio compatible with it..
We don't have access to the actual rom here is a link to the 4 raw files from a rom dump if that will help.
http://rapidshare.com/files/119668150/emonster_raw.zip
will sound really stupid but i cant (dont know) build the rom with the raws... (something is not working well )(( or maybe im stupid ))
dejanet: thanks for uploading the raws.
Isaygarcia: what files do you exactly need? Thanks for offering to help. Really appreciate it! And to reply to your previous post, no unfortunately emobile doesn't work with another frequency.
i dont know how to reconstruct the rom based on raw files xDU... (( yes im stupid..)) ((( but im just 18 years old --.-- )))

Hi,
My name is Baron. I own a HTC P4350 PPC. I was wondering if there is any port of the Original WM 6.1 version for the Herald without any customizations. I have been trying different versions of each cook's 6.1 versions but I don't know. I like them but I guess I like things to be original lol. I really like the TouchFLO, its awesome. But if there is anyone who can help me out or even let me know how to aquire 6.1 and teach me how to port it would be nice. Maybe I can be a cook or something. But I guess that would need the help of all of you. I am familiar with flashing Heralds at the moment and of course last year I was flashing Motorolas with Motorola's custom OS not the ones with WM. Anyway thanks for your time and I hope I can be seen as a cook around here or something. Oh, don't forget about the original WM 6.1

There was never an original WM6.1 for the Herald. You'll have to cook your own ROM using a WM6.1 base and port it using a stock 6.0 Herald ROM without any kind of customizations except for a lot of the customizations needed to fix all the bugs that will arise from simply sticking both bases together. The original ROM tends to be slow and buggy, though... What about the original ROM do you like? There might already be a ROM that has those features.
Thanks for your fast response. I knew there was never a actual 6.1 release for the Herald, I was just wondering if anyone ported the original release to work with a Herald. But with what you said about it being buggy, I never thought about that but I guess that would make sense, but I have seen some custom ROMs with 6.1 and flashed them myself to see how it would work and these 6.1 versions were not bad at all, especially with TouchFLO. So I guess my question is, how were they able to cook a 6.1 version? They had to have picked up an original to modify it if I'm correct. As I said I would like to learn how to cook as well so if anyone has time to help me learn at least the basics that would be appreciated. I can learn more myself if I know the basics.

I have a few threads dedicated to teaching how to cook. It's just the basics but it's enough to get you started.
Every 6.1 ROM here has been made by porting a 6.1 from another phone (there is no "original" per say as new versions are released all the time.) using the OEM of an original HERALD 6.0 ROM but modifying it heavily, making a custom XIP (kind of like the kernel and all the stuff related to it) from both the ported ROM and the older ROM, and then adding their own apps and tweaks.
In my case, I also do a heavy amount of stripping of useless files.
I'm kind of on the same page. I'd love to find an unmodified wm6.1. I've tried a couple of them, and they're all great, but they also have a bunch of stuff loaded in them or different versions of apps. I'd like to find a wm6.1 load that JUST has the org wm6.1 apps in it and nothing else. No mods, no alternative apps, skins, etc.

I am also looking for this...
I am VERY new to cooking and have not been able to manage to Dump any of the 6.1 ROMs. (I must be missing something)
I would like to start with an "original" ROM that I can play with and try to build my own custom ROM

I guess I'm having a hard time understanding what "original" means. If you just want something clean and stripped that you can add whatever you want into it, then any of my ROMs will do.
To ivanmmj
I guess by original I meant base 6.1 ROM but since there is not an official 6.1 base ROM for Herald I was just trying to figure out how the other cooks were able to get 6.1 in their releases so I could cook up my own 6.1 for me and possibly upload it for someone to test or use. But it's ok, you already answered that for me but maybe you can point me in the right direction. I've been hearing that a Kaiser 6.1 ROM is easy to port to the Herald. But let me know how you were able to port it. I read some of your tutorials and I'll definately give it a try as soon as I get the time. Possibly this Sunday or so.

If you're looking for a bug free base, you might be better off just using one of my ROM as a base (since I tend to release the kitchen files for my ROMs.)
I have a post somewhere here about SYS and XIP porting. Find it and follow that. It works fine with kaiser ROMs.
Thanks! I don't know if I have tried your ROMs yet. I'll give it a go.
From what I have been able to gather (not very much) is that some ROM have their RGU files removed, making it imposible to Dump the ROM. When I try to open with the Package Tool nothing happens?

Actually, some ROMs are even encrypted...
In my case, all my ROMs are released WITH the kitchen files in case you want to make your own version. All that I ask is that you mention where the base came from since the base took a long time to make.
I don't know if this is the right place for this post.... and forgive my ignorance again.
I just can't get the Kitchen to work with any 6.1 ROM. I have tried JustMe and I follow exactly the same steps as with the original ROM. I just can't get a poputated OEM or SYS folder. What am I missing?

...Original rom?
There isnt a true original rom. Theres a base, which cannot be loaded on herald unless is ported with original 6.0 (which is ment for herald).
So. basically it looks like this:
Base 6.1 + Original 6.0 = herald 6.1
(original) (port)
you cant just use a base for a rom. you can port it, then extract what u want and dont want though (which theretically will turn yer ported 6.1 into an "original" one)
I managed to port a 6.1 rom following ivanmmj tutorial, quoted below.
" How to port a SYS folder
1. Open your old SYS folder and copy the .VM and WinCENLS_WWE folders into your new SYS folder
2. Go to your old SYS\Shell and copy shell32.exe and shellres.dll into your new SYS\Shell
3. Replace the old SYS folder with the new one. "
but I only did step 1 and did not do step 2. It worked and seems stable.

The Shell32.exe doesn't always have to be ported, but if you port a ROM that comes with a different dpi, you need to use your old shell32.dll (unless you want to manually convert it into the proper DPI...)
First of all; thx for helping me out with flashing HardSPL. It worked out great and I immediately flashed 6.5. However (now we are getting to the point) it's kind of buggy.
I want to flash the latested HTC Kaiser ROM (6.1). To download the ROM I need a none branded serial, which I don't have.
Does anybody have something like a shared serial? Or a original no nonsence 6.1 HTC ROM?
I'll keep searching the forum but if you could help me, that would be great!
