Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional Build 23075 for the Apache
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR DEVICE BY FLASHING MY ROM. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Introduction
This is the first in a series of constant ROM updates for this device. Please remember that Windows Mobile 6.5 is still in beta. It's not finalized and thus bugs will be present.
This ROM is meant for the average user. I'm only providing updates for Windows Mobile 6.5 for the Apache as many people have no idea how to build a ROM. It's a minimal ROM, but it WORKS!. You want something more complex? Go build it yourself.
I'm working on this in my free time. Please bare with me with updates and fixes. I'll try my best to keep development going in a timely manner.
ROM Download
Mirror 1: Available soon...
Carrier CAB Download
My ROM is built genericly. This means your phone will lack the necessary carrier software to work correctly on your carrier's network.
These carrier cabs were designed for the Titan, but they work just fine on the Apache:
http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=Titan/carriers/
Select your carrier from that site, download the cab file and run it on your device after you flash this ROM.
Installation
This update will completely wipe your device's memory. Please backup any critical data before attempting to use this ROM upgrade.
The best way to successfully flash a ROM with the Apache is to do so in bootloader mode. To get into bootloader mode do the following:
1) Unplug the device from your PC.
2) With the device on, press and hold the power button.
3) While holding the power button also press & hold the voice memo button (the one on the side that looks like a cassette)
4) Now, while holding the power and voice memo button, insert a stylus or pen into the reset hole on the bottom of the device.
5) If everything was successful the device will now show a screen stating the bootloader version. If not, try again!
6) Reconnect the Apache to your PC and wait for Windows to install drivers for the device.
7) Run the ROM updater posted above.
General Information
If a specific carrier ROM/bootloader specific ROM is needed, please feel free to ask. I'll cook one up and post it here when I get a free moment. As in, if you want a ROM with your carrier support built in...ask me!
If a specific app is requested, tweak, or feature please feel free to message me or post in this thread. I would appreciate feedback as to what to include in the next release. I'm open to any suggestions!

i'm have cooked for myself http://depositfiles.com/files/c9ffrk7ks (bootloader v1.0 Verizon)
Quick Update: My Apache decided to go haywire. It decided to have the infamous Error 37 involving Mobile IP problems. I'm waiting for Verizon to manually issue me an IP for my Apache. It will be a few days before this is released, and it will be built on the newest core available.
/me needs data to test ROM
Sorry for the delay!

oh! man! thx! Great present in my Birthday =)
Flashing your rom! Speed good! If intresting i may send you bagreports
I have a stable ROM of WM 6.5 23075 built. I tested it on my Apache a week ago and all seemed well. I did not bundle any programs with it as it can be quite finicky so I'm taking baby steps.
My Apache died (screen cracked), but I'm willing to keep updating this ROM base with the newest available builds if I get feedback.
You need to have a Verizon device with Bootloader 2.5. If all goes well I will rebuild the ROM to be generic and link to specific carrier cab installation files.
PM me if you want a copy. I don't want the masses installing it just yet.
I want! =) send PM U

Do you think you could make one for a 1.0 bootloader? I would be more then happy to test for you.

Building one for you now for Bootloader 1.0/1.01/1.04.
I'm also building a new one for Bootloader 2.02/2.04/2.05.
I've included a few programs I feel are basic and useful:
-HTC Performance
-Arcsoft MMS 5
-Apache Camera App
-Internet Connection Sharing
-Advanced Configuration
-SDHC Card Support
-6 Button Com Manager
-Touchflo Dialer w/ Smartdial (kinda buggy but it works at the moment)
I'm going to work on tweaking the build next. Once I get a stable mix of programs I'm not going to include many more. The Apache is very limited when it comes to memory so less is better.
I'll post it when I have it uploaded for you all.
Thank you cant wait!

This rom is a close as it can get to the original one.....a super clean rom is also in the way....
This rom is not a hack from another device.
Many thanks to mamaich BEPE AND dr.P FOR ALL THE Support and all the authors/xda of the freeware apps.... and specially.....my wife that lend her wizard to me in order to finish this rom,and for putting up with the many hours i ignored her.
The rom is based in the [REAL THING]
PLEASE DO NOT PM ME ABOUT THE ROM AS I WILL NOT ANSWER ....POST YOUR QUERIES IN THE FORUM FOR THE BENEFIT OF EVERYONE.
Please note that i had no chance of fully testing this rom because my wizard is not fully operational......this rom is intended for users to use it as a base for their own roms....
Therefore my support for this rom will be very limited.
This rom was build as a special request from jwzg and other members.
There will be a supper clean rom....for clean freaks....eheh
Also there will be an updated version of the current "real thing"
rom has been taking down due to a problem in phone settings....
................................................
Thanks for this Faria. This is a clean as I need and want it.
when someone downloads this, can they host it on www.putstuff.com? It is free and there is no download limit.
thanks
Great! I will compare with X-Plore to see witch one is the best.
THANK YOU FARIA

so far so good
So far so good (thanks for a clean rom faria...this is a perfect rom for me to start practicing cooking on). Only thing i have noticed so far is if you go into the phone settings and hit ok, it stays on that screen (only a soft reset removes it as far as i can tell. i flashed the rom again to make sure that wasnt it). can anyone replicate this?
*edit* end call button can close it.
does this clean rom also include registry wizard? and total commander?

I have just finished a quick lite rom based on Helmi_ C AKU 0.70 rom which I find very stable even for a beta.
Everything Remains the Same apart from what I took out the rom which as follows:
1. Htc audio manager
2. HTC HOME Plugin
3. Office Mobile
4. OneNote Mobile
5. BT_FTP=1_2_30490_1
6. JbedJava_MIDP=0_0_20070726_1_1
7. HTC task manager
8. Voice Speed dial
9. WindowsLive
Rom is working fast with only one bug which i'm trying to fix which is:
After Flashing the rom and after configuration and reset the rom wont boot. But if you reset it before CONFIGURATION the rom works ok as normal. very strange.
I will try to fix it but I have got all the configuration cabs which can be install manual. These files are:
1. Configure_COMgr175.CAB
2. Configure_DDI171.CAB
3. Configure_GPS.CAB
4. Configure_Key.CAB
5. Configure_WLAN.CAB
6. WiFicountrycode.CAB
Total storage memory is 133.16 mb and free program is 74.15 mb
Cabs can be found in my thread which is located here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332438
Link>>> Rom has got more work to do will fix it as soon I got some more time.
Still a problem with configuration just soft rest before config starts.
Install config cabs below, enjoy
Thanks to POF and OLIPRO for all there hard work and tadzio with contributing in helping us with customising his tools so they can work for kaisers. And thanks to everyone who was helping with the kaiser project.
I will be making or modyfing roms as lite as possible which I think is the best way to go as programs gets updated regular.

helmi_c done a great job with the rom I didnt have to do nothing with it might strip it down further for who love ultr lite roms but not losing any stability of course
There is more work to be done on this rom
I realise there is more work to be done on this ROM. First I forgot and allowed the configuration to go on. So I had to reflash (forgot HR would do) and prevent installation of the configuration. I then installed the cabs posted, but device refused to boot after soft-reset
So I am back on Helmi's ROM.
Dutty, you must have removed the power icon in settings as I could not find it to see how much longer I could go on trying to revive my device without running out of power

same here I must have deleted something in the rom I also found huge battery drain my highly suspicions are one of the activation cabs is causing this.
Sorry guys my first rom didnt made it as yet will pull it down as i think its not stable.
Cheers
My apologies
I have taken down the rom found a huge battery drain in rom.
Well, I installed it and everything went okay. Installed the extra cabs and looked good. I wanted to try WisBar instead of the start menu app I'd been using before so installed their latest versions. Whoops that made a total mess of things, locked up at the end of install and still was locking up after soft resets. So had to hard reset and start all over again. I've not used this app before, so not sure if it was the ROM causing the problem or not.

Ah, okay, yeah I've continued to have problems with it, keeps locking up on me when doing a soft reset. So guess it wasn't wisbar that was the problem. I'll go back to the standard HTC Rom for now.

Can you please close this thread as lite rom has been made by helmi so thus all support should be in that forum. thanks
To prevent new users asking the same questions again and again, i decided to write this little FAQ and introduction about ROM flashing.

ROM flashing FAQ
ROM flashing FAQ:
Q: What is a ROM?
A: A ROM contains the operating system and often additional software which can be “installed” to your mobile device. Most ROM’s provided by the chefs (people who create cutomized ROM’s) just contain the operating system and additional applications. Shipping ROM’s (ROM’s provided by the manufacturer or official providers) also contain a Radio ROM and a bootloader.
Please notice: A ROM can ONLY be flashed to a device it is made for.
Q: What is a bootloader?
A: A bootloader contains information about your device. It is quite similar to a computer’s BIOS. Official bootloader also have a security option called CID (Carrier-ID) which allows you just to install ROM’s from the provider of your phone. So, if you want to flash another ROM, you first have to turn off this security option by “CID-unlocking” your device. Check the flashing instructions below on how to do this.
Q: What is a Radio ROM?
A: The Radio ROM contains the drivers for the communication devices of your phone. Some ROM’s need one or more specific Radio ROM’s to work properly. Usually the chef, who created the ROM recommends a Radio ROM. But don’t mind, if your Radio Rom does not match, you can always flash another without needing to flash the ROM containing the Operating System (OS) again.
You can check the version of your Radio ROM when you click Start > Settings > System > Device Information or booting your device (there will appear three lines of red text. The Radio ROM version is the number after the R:.
You can download Radio ROM's at the xda-developers FTP-Server in the Uploads/Kaiser/Radio-Folder. Username and password are both 'xda'. To install it, download, extract and execute it. Then follow the instructions on your screen. Flashing a Radio does not delete any files on your device's ROM.
To choose the perfect Radio ROM for you check this thread.
Q: What means CID(-unlock)?
A: All known providers add a Carrier ID to their devices. This CID is added to prevent a device being flashed with a ROM which is not from the provider and/or not designed for your device. Be sure to brick your Kaiser, if you try to flash a ROM designed for a Wizard.
To flash other ROM's, you have to unlock the CID. If you flash another ROM on a CID-locked device, the new ROM will not work properly.
Q: What means SIM-Unlock?
A: Lots of providers want to bind their customers. So they add a SIM-Lock to their devices with only allows to use SIM-Cards using their networks. If you want to use a SIM-Card from another provider, you need to SIM-unlock your device. This can be done by contacting the phone's provider (paid & sometimes free), using a service like www.imei-check.com, or using Jockyw2001's Kaiser SIM Unlocker.
Q: Can I brick my phone by flashing a ROM?
A: To be true… YES. But if you follow all instructions, it is quite implausible that your device bricks.
Q: Does flashing affect the warranty of my device?
A: Yes, but, as long as your device can be flashed again, you will find some help at jcespi2005's thread where you can find dumped original ROMs.
Q: What can I do, if i gain problems with the ROM i flashed to my device?
A: First of all you should inform the creator by posting in the ROM's thread if the problem is not described yet. Then you should wait for an update/fix or, if the issue is a showstopper for you, try another ROM.
Q: Which is the best/fastest/... ROM?
A: Nobody can answer you this properly. There are nearly daily new ROM's here and everybody has different demands to a ROM. If you want to know, which fits best for you, read the ROM description and try the ROM('s). Only you can decide, which ROM is the best (for you).
Q: I own an AT&T Tilt. After flashing another ROM, my hardkeyboard does not work properly.
A: AT&T uses another keyboard layout than HTC. To fix this, install the tilt keyboard fix.cab. You can download it at Dutty's Kaiser CAB Collection.
Q: What is the difference between a hardreset and a softreset?
A: A softreset reboots your device. A hardreset sets all settings back to the ROM's defaults. All of your data, settings and additionally installed programs will be deleted.
Q: What are *.CAB-files and/or how do i use them?
A: Cab-files for WINCE-Devices are different to the files you may have seen (e.g. on your Windows Installation CD). They do not only contain files but also installation information similar like a MSI package. To install them, just copy the *.cab to your Mobile Device and run it from there. Most shipped ROMs delete cab-files after executing, most cooked do not. To be sure, check the registry. If HKLM\Software\apps\Microsoft Application Installer\nDynamicDelete = 0 (DWORD decimal), cab-Files will not be deleted after execution.
Q: I have questions which are not described in this FAQ. What shall i do?
A: First of all search the forum and the wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com). Maybe the question has been already answered. If you don't find an answer, create a new thread. As i know from experience, the community will always try to help you as soon as possible.
Introduction to ROM flashing
Introduction to ROM flashing
These are the steps on how to flash your device the first time:
1: CID-unlock your device by following the instructions at pof's HTC Kaiser Hard-SPL v1 - CID Unlock & Flash any ROM to your device (4 free)-thread
This needs to be done to flash a ROM to your device which is not created from your provider (or HTC if you own a device with HTC branding).
Additionally you may check persianowns Kaiser HardSPL Walkthrough Video.
If you are running in a white screen running HardSPL, please read this thread.
2: Search this forum for the ROM, you like to flash. Then download and, if needed, extract it.
3. Check, if your Radio-ROM matches the new ROM. If you don't find any information in the ROM's thread don't mind. You can update your Radio ROM later if you gain any problems.
4. Make sure, your devices battery status is NOT LESS than 50%.
5. Connect your device to your computer and wait until activesync/Windows Mobile Device Center recognizes it
6. Last chance to synchronize and/or backup files. All files and databases will be deleted after performing the next step!
(Optional: If you want to save your text messages and/or eMails, use a tool like DotFred's PIM Backup.)
7. Execute the .exe file you downloaded with the ROM.
8. Follow the instructions and DO NOT disconnect your device until flashing is finished.
9. Disconnect your device from your computer.
10. You need to delete the old activesync/Windows Mobile Device Center partnership, because it thinks, your device is not the same as before... and it is right ^^. Deleting an old partnership is only possible, if the device is not connected.
(Optional) If you want to change the name of your device, do that now by clicking Start > Settings > System > About > Device ID. Enter the new name of your device and click on Ok.
11. Connect your device to your computer, create a new partnership and synchronize. Then configure your device to your needs and if needed install additional software.
Congratulations! You succeed flashing your device!
Great FAQ....simple, concise, and informative
Well done
Excellent post bmueller77!
This should clear up a bunch of the questions that are asked.
thanks for that
its hard to find some basic info on here like this, so can we please sticky

Let's see. I am already working on a more general FAQ version including info on Windows Mobile but, to be honest, a general flashing introduction would be much more complicated and i want to make it as easy as possible for newbies.
I think it would be better, if someone grabs this thing and would edit it for another device to keep it concise. If anyone is interested, just ask me via PM and i'll send you the whole including vbCode.

Got it. Thank you.
I have made this thread a sticky upon request.
I feel that this info should be ported to the wiki so that it can be found and edited by all.
At the momnet we have FAR to many sticky's in this section which makes finding anything hard to say the least.
Have a look at the BA section (in my signature) to see what I mean.
Aright, will add a general version to the wiki at the weekend.
Thank You but still have a question
Hi, I just got my HTC TyTn 2 as a present from my dad he got it from orange and got it sim unlocked for me. But I don't like it because Orange has their crappy stuff on it I wont the original stuff from HTC on it like HTC Home etc. I've got my phones detail in my signature can some one plz help i jus want to know if i can use it on my rom n radio version. Thanks.
thx
Super! Thank you!
this thread is awesome...it really help a newbie like me
the wiki is also very helpful
keep up the good work
I've been flashing ROMs for a long time. There is one thing I don't know. Does anyone know what is the reason behind stopping flashing RadioROMs at 95%? Whatever RadioROM I want to flash to my Vario III (keeping the standard T-Mobile ROM) it stops. In the RadioROM thread, there were several cases like mine. Can it be that for being able to flash another RadioROM you have to flash a custom ROM like Dutty or Schaps before flashing the Radio? I cannot recall such problems with Hermes.
Thanks for the guide. Also am not new to this I haven't done this in a while. ROM Flash went without a hitch. Keep up the good work.

So long as your phone is SIM unlocked as in you can use any sim card in it then you flash it exactly the same as described in this thread. I flashed mine no problems. Does that answer your question or are you just wanting the home screen without flashing? If so Im not sure if thats possible, I heard some people say that you can enable it on orange phones but I flashed mine before I ever tried it.
Excellent FAQ!
Now i can get my hands dirty with that so called "ROM flashing" .
noobie question, but how do i install a cab file? thanks

Flashing instructions:
** note: HTC MAPLE DEVICES ONLY (Dash3G, HTC SNAP S52X)! Will NOT work on HTC OZONE or HTC SNAP S511!
** note: HARDSPL by JockyW HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
** note: Your phone must be application unlocked. If it is not, please run SDA Application Unlock.exe via Activesync (attached below).
** note: If your device is not HardSPL (highly recommended, click here), you must verify which version SPL your device has prior to flashing. Do this by turning off the device. While holding the volume down button, power on the device. You will see "SPL-1.17" or "SPL-1.19". Run the appropriate auto-?.bat to JumpSPL your device for a successful flash.
** note: Please post questions and report bugs to thread, do not PM me with them.
Remove your SD Card
If your device is already hardSPL, proceed to step 10
If using JumpSPL, boot your device up to your homescreen
Download and unzip the ROM package file
If flashing a custom cooked ROM, run auto.bat, or auto_1.17.bat, or auto_1.19.bat (depending on your SPL version)
Follow the prompts in the DOS window
Hit "continue" (trackball button) on your phone, screen will turn black
Run RomUpdateUtility.exe (if it doesn't run via the script)
The flash will take about 5 minutes
If your device is already HardSPL, simply run RomUpdateUtility.exe and follow the prompts
Upon first boot, it will seem frozen for a few minutes, maybe even go black. This is NORMAL!
It is recommended to perform a hard reset (Clear Storage) after first boot
Enjoy!
In case something goes wrong:
Remove the battery and the SD Card--> Put ONLY the battery back in.
While holding the volume down button, press the power button
The multicolor bootloader screen will come up
Plug in the USB cable and flash back your original shipped ROM
Find out what went wrong and reflash this ROM properly

WOW you are fast. Great work! Out of curiosity (since what you do is simply pure magic to me), how difficult is it to make the rom work on the CDMA Ozone once you have the GSM one?
What technically speaking makes the roms incompatible?
great work Ookba..i kno u were itchin to get this done!
looks fantastic..what can i say

There are lots of variations between the Cedar and the Maple. But, as you know, it's all doable. Still trying to save up enough doe to grab me an Ozone. Once I do, it'll be a matter of days till you guys get a fresh digital meal... If anyone has a spare one laying around... By all means,send it my way... Thanks to all who have donated. Keep em coming. Almost there......
Well I dont really have much, but i I was able to scrounge around for a bit and send it over. Hopefully there are other people around with more dough than I that can help you get that ozone sooner than later.
Greate dude Thanks
Now what I need is a stock rom for S521 (keyboard with TAB key).
Just waiting for this so I can have my device back if something fails.
(I dumped my RAW files and post the links in the other thread)
and so it begins..
great job man!
I've flashed it... dude... it's beautiful!
The only problem 'til now is that the FN characters are not right.
If I press the FN + A, I should get '4', but I get '*', if I press FN + S, I get the '4' instead '5'.
Will set up mail etc trying to find any bug.
What is the 'Auto-lock' feature?
PS: using Snap as modem

hey cpimentel. I created some stock ROMS for just that reason. You still have to JumpSPL or HardSPL but they are here. I will build another using your raw files shortly...

Great!! Thanks. I'm using a Keylock program by Maniac. Much better than the HTC one, even has custom notifications for messages waiting, screen saver, etc. Turn it on in Settings, UI Tweaks. Configure it in Start Menu, Tools.
As for the keyboard, the default layout is for the US WWE SNAP/Maple/Dash3G. Go to Start Menu, Tools, run Keymap Config and select EU keymap. It will work!!
QuickGPS needs some love, have to see why it's not working... I think it's cause I used the package from Dash3G and not SNAP. I will check.

I fixed it. Instead of a patch, just redownload the ROM from the original link and reflash. Also fixed one other bug I forgot.

SuperJustKitchen v0.9 Released.
Go to my site: http://justkitchen.info to get the updates and the info. It takes to long to update every device's forum that is supported, and I plan to support all devices, eventually.
Word of warning:
Not all EXT's have been tested or modified for the every device. Please test test and test and then let me know which packages don't work and what YOU've done to fix them. (I don't have time to fix ALL of them by myself.) Some packages will only be compatible with some devices.
(I'm no longer updating each thread separately for each device but just updating my site and posting the release info here. I will only update each thread to say that a new version is out.)
**Warning**
Before using this kitchen, you MUST read the whole thread. Any questions that have been answered will be ignored. This is your only warning.
**Disclaimer**
I am not responsible for any damage that may be done to your phone with a ROM created in this kitchen.
I am not responsible for any damage done to your computer.
I am not responsible for anything... at all.
Introducing SuperJustKitchen!
SuperJustKitchen is based on [http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=843218"]airxtreme[/URL]'s osKitchen Zero. All credit on for the kitchen backend goes to him.
Features
A completely stripped ROM. (Work in progress for some devices.)
LZX and XPR compression (Also option for No compression.)
Auto clean files that are language specific or DPI specific that your ROM does not need
Auto port missing language MUI files
Automatic rec'loc'ing for devices without native 6.5 nk's
6.1 and 6.5 support
Auto XIP and SYS porting
Auto NBH packing
Tool to convert OEM packages to EXT packages
Auto file conflict fix (don't have to removing older file that conflict (not that there are any. )
Save custom ROM settings (for cooks for multiple ROMs)
Cook multiple languages at the same time with the same ROM settings (Have to add language support yourself. I removed the required MUI's a while back because they made updating the kitchen and adding devices a nightmare.)
MUCH better organization of EXT packages
Active development instead of a program that is no longer being developed
Cleaner and easier to use interface
A built-in and customizable Tutorial section
And more!
Builds included
21056 - WM6.1
23658 - WM6.5 with new redesigned GUI
At the moment, this is an ENGLISH (WWE) only kitchen. This might change...
NOTE: In order for me to keep track of whether my time was well spent or wasted, if you use this kitchen to make a ROM, please either include SJK in the name or just mention that it was SJK cooked in your ROM's thread.
NOTE: This kitchen assumes that you know how to flash through SD, recover from a bad flash and are able to backtrack your steps to figure out how you broke your own ROM. If you do not understand these, please learn them first. Do not PM me asking me. I have written numerous walkthroughs on all these except on how to backtrack your steps. For that, just remember what you're doing as you do it and keep backups.
If you find any issues, PLEASE report them to the bug tracker in my website. It will help me make this kitchen better!
ENJOY!!!
COOL......
Kwel, great booster for new chefs..!!!

Are you HardSPL'd? If so, do you have the file size limit removed? Also, don't include most of the packages. Your device only has so much space. You're not supposed to include that many programs.

It shows that you are registered twice and are activated on both accounts.
I do not have the ability to see passwords. IM me one of the usernames and passwords that you used so I can troubleshoot.
As far as the ROM goes:
If you have an elf, that file size is massive. Remember that the limit only removes the lower limit of a 50mb requirement. The elf doesn't have much space. Do not enable so many things. If you must have all those things, at least enable LZX compression and EXT-UPX compression.

even friend of mine from opal have same problem..
dont know y this happen?
wait for the owners.
Looks like there is a corruption somewhere in the kitchen. It is affecting every device. I think it has to do with the executable I changed last minute before updating the kitchen. I'll check myself on my computer.
any update yet?
I've been home sick with the flu so I haven't even touched my computer since. I will let you know more tomorrow. I should get some time to work on it, then.
Get well soon! We are awaiting yout kitchen, seems to be really nice once finished

Do me a favor.
Go to your sources folder and delete the "_Compress" folder then try to cook and flash a ROM. If it works, then that was the problem all along... he moved the folder to another location but the kitchen still reads both.)
