WM5 on the CDMA Harrier

I along with a ton of other Harrier owners can't wait to get WM5!!!
In light of the "NO GSM" error people are getting I'm assuming there is something in the BA ROM that checks the Radio on boot.
Has anyone actually opened up the latest 2003SE Harrier ROM and the latest 2003SE BA ROM and actually looked for what the difference is? I'm hoping someone can do that and maybe modify the WM5 BA ROM thereby compatible with the Harrier.
I've tried opening both my 2003SE ROM using the "er2003edit" but it keeps saying the password is wrong. Also it won't open the WM5 BA ROM.
Any thoughts???

Hi, I have the harrier XV6600 and I have a bit knowledge related to the ROMS and stuff, I'll be trying to figure out what the difference is, i'm assuming it's the whole Kernel it self, but not sure, anyways, can you provide me with as much information about ur device... carrier, rom etc... also where u able to boot up WM2005 at all on your device? I get to the screen with the four colors then get to the menu, and ones I hit the envelope it just gives me a white screen and it stays there for ever until i reset and then i'm back to step one..
I would like to know if it atleast is capable of booting up the OS before I decide to spend sometime trying to make it compatible with the CDMA network.. thanks

No Harrier owners as of yet have gotten it to boot. We all simply get the NO GSM error after install and after the screen you mentioned you got to.
I've cooked my ExtROM onto my SD Card and resized my memory so I'm ready for it atleast. I also have the correct installer for the Harrier as all of the Harrier specific tools for unhiding, unlocking, and resizing the ExtROM. Also I have all of the 2.04 ROM version files of all the .exe's that all the BA guys said WM5 was missing and had posted from their 2003SE ROM's. Of course we don't have the WiFi file. I also have the patched WM5 ROM nbf without the file error that mamaich made.

It's the kernel thats different, 2003 and 2005 are using the same bootloader. Looking at the 2003 gsm rom, the kernel is very similiar to the 2005 rom. Getting the cdma radio layer running would be easy enough, but, we have to get the kernel to boot the OS. Not sure if the 2003 kernel will do it, i'll give it a shot though. May even be able to throw one together in PB

Sweet, I'll be waiting for the results of your attempt!

HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL
"dll rilcdma.dll"
This is what is preventing the boot-up, I believe.
Any HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn that are unable to load will cause the phone not to boot up.
I am sure this says "dll rilgsm.dll" on the BA. We need to change this to "rilcdma.dll" and copy over the .dll from the 2.04 ROM.
Then dump the ROM and load it on the Harrier, this should hopefully get it booting, if there are not any other bad device drivers.

We also need to make sure this is based off the new patched ROM that mamaich made...
Well here is the rilcdma.dll from my 2.04 ROM:

Wow, you guys rock. It sounds like after some work that it will be possible. I just wish I knew how to help... I do have several devices to test on but I have no rom building experience...

Can't we just hex edit the information of WM2005 dump file? using a hexeditor, but then we would need to copy the file, I'm actually thinking that the rilcdma.dll file might be included already, I remember ones flashing my device with a 2003Se rom, and finding the rilgsm.dll file and my phone was working properly? maybe it's generic to include both the files?
either way we would need to get someone with a gsm phone to do those changes, and copy that file, dump the file, and then we'd need to try them on our devices?
ANY GSM users outhere wanna help?

Bump.
Glad to here people that know what they're doing are working on this.
Hopefully the thread topic won't scare off EVERY GSM user.
Course... they're all too busy playing with the new OS to notice us

Bump

I think it will be a while, if at all, that there will be a CDMA version.
Most of the developers are using the GSM version and thus have no way of testing the CDMA one. Additionally the GSM version is not working perfectly yet, so this will add to the time that it takes. I think we will see a CDMA universal before we see WM5 for the Harrier

*Bump*

The 6700 is out through Sprint! Maybe we'll be able to rip the necessary CDMA files from it? http://www.sprint.com/business/products/phones/ppc6700_allPcsPhones.jsp

Holy crap! Somone "check" one out in a store and grab the ROM with an sd card...

They're only available through business channels right now and should ship next week according to those that have ordered. They were also told that consumer channels should be able to order next week sometime, but no word on when they might start popping up in the stores. Remember, this ROM won't directly copy to our devices, but we might be able to get the necessary files off of it to get WM5 working on our Harriers. It's another step in the right direction at least.

Bump again, lol....

Apache ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=157140

Well, I'm no expert, and I have no equipment, no software, and no skills, lol. So I can't help much here. But I do applaud the effort and wish there were some way I could contribute.
Anyway, I would imagine that if you take the ROM from an Apache (Sprint PPC-6700) and compare it to the ROM of a Wizard, whatever the differences are is probably exactly what the differences between the Harrier and Blue Angel ROMS need to be (for WM5 to be functional on both).
Just a thought...

all you people out there waiting for this to happen should probably check out this thread... looks like good news

Trying To Upgrade - DOESN'T EVEN TRI-COLOR? *SIGH*

Edit: I'm an idiot
Used the wrong ROM - DuTTY's new DualTouch v1.1 ftw!

digitalninjas said:
Hey thar,
Sorry to be a newb however this is really pissing me off.
I upgraded my HTC TyTN II a few times before FLAWLESSLY but now after doing one of DuTTYs ROM's I can't even upgrade my device anymore!
I'll connect my device to my computer via USB (& ActiveSync 4.5) wait for it to be connected - then boot up the new ROM app. It will take me through the steps and when it's supposed to throw the phone in tri-color and flash - it will just restart the stupid phone and give me a bull**** 260 error code (No Connection).
Any ideas? I followed the MicroSD tut but it won't boot that screen either.
I need to upgrade from this ROM, it's slow and buggy!

Yes, I was flash-happy and was trying out many new ROM's, however one day it decided to just not work and not even tri-color.

if you manually put your device in bootloader then attach it to your pc the screen should say serial then usb.
once it says usb and the pc has installed any drivers it may need run the upgrade and it should work (if not first time try again)
I think to get bootloader manually hold down off button and camera and then reset with stylus continuing to hold buttons

Sounds like you have attempted to flash a Hermes ROM to your device.....best NOT to be flash happy as something like this would happen if you are not carefull.
Your device is a Kaiser so you need to go into the Kaiser forum NOT the Hermes forum. WM6 is released for MANY HTC devices eg: Wizard, Hermes, Kaiser, Athena, Titan, Artemis etc...

and just to reiterate make sure its a kaiser rom and not one of duttys for a different device or you could brick your device

ROM emulator for PC available?

I´m having a small problem: I use a cooked ROM but some friends don´t and sometimes, when they have a question I get into trouble, because their ROM looks different and some settings are in different places.
So my tought is: why not use an emulator so that I can see their ROM on the pc and can then give hints far quicker and without the need to my hands on that
I´ve searched quite a while but found nothing regarding this matter. All I´ve seen is the MS device emulator but I don´t know if that loads different ROMs than the ones that come from MS.
Therefor my question is: does anyone know of a ROM emulator for a pc?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
cu,
Thilo

this may help http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...12-CA31-4BE9-A3BF-B9BF4F64CE72&displaylang=en

I used this and also the Microsoft Developer Studio platform contains built in emulators, but there is no (easy) way you will be able to emulate Diamond or other ROMs in it - the hardware phones are generic devices. There are images for WM6 and 6.1 also. It's great fun installing TomTom etc and testing that sort of thing on your PC, but custom ROMs...not likely.
The MS Studio WM6.1 images are in a .msi file which is a 280Mb download.
Check this and the links at the bottow:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...AF-12E3-4B2F-A394-356E2C2FB114&displaylang=en
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...3a-a651-4745-88ef-3d48091a390b&displaylang=en
However, I'm 99% sure one of their emulators hosed my PC totally (Probably the CE 5 one). Not sure what or how it happened but a key file (related to the emulator) got corrupted and trashed XP.....ordinarlily I'd have laughed at that suggestion - except I had to rebuild my PC as a result.

Ok, so I´ll do a complete backup (image) first .
I´ll try your suggested MS software product tomorrow. Of course I don´t want to be able to simulate the gyro sensors, the build-in gps functionality and so on.
It would suit me just to be able to simulate e.g. the original t-mobile ROM or the original HTC ROM.
I´ll check what can be done in that direction.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Any ROM requests

I was thinking of posting one or two ROMs for this device to add some variety.
Does anyone have any requests?

I think most of people want a stripped down no frills kind of system. I used Dark's Roms for a little while but started having problems with it locking up and not receiving calls. I think if you can clean up the stock and maybe give it a face lift, well, I don't know about anyone else, but Id like that. Getting tired of the plan ol interface.

Any chance of you posting the OEMmiscs as well so that any of us who want to cook our own SYS builds can do it?
Perhaps a stripped down rom with any useful additions from the v7 Fathom rom (fathom keyboard, dialer, anything else you find worthwhile to add)?

Is there any chance to bring over the Sense 2.5?
I like the program, even though i don't have a HTC.

windows mobile 6.1?

OK, say maybe a couple of "clean" ROMs based on WM 6.1, 6.5 & 6.5.3?
I'm personally not that interested spending a lot of time porting HTC software, like Sense.
I have no problem posting my Kitchen and source files.
TrueG

Sounds good! Looking forward to the release!

He question is asked!!!
and then, nothing more has happened!!!
- made the survey and who likes what,
or have lost your phone or computer
and they said that they had gone to study
and such a thing happened in many applications and many ROMs
winmospeed
topaz rom
xperia rom
Avian Pleyer
and so on and so forth
In any case regards

Have no fear, I'm still here.
Right now I am trying to correct an issue with DZCreate.exe that is preventing me from using v10g as a base. The DragonStorm ROMs appear to be based on v10d (AT&T) with the OEMMisc from v10g.

Thanks trueg. you are my best bud.

To be honest, I am really happy with stock AT&T April 2010. (I cannot believe I put up with HTC for 2 years).
I think the first step would be simply removing AT&T Media Net and other AT&T applications, so the ROM would be quick but still stable.
I would even leave many of the LG applications there, because the music player and scientific calculator get the job done, better than some of the cooked ROMs I tried when using HTC.

It is good that you're there yet "man.
You're the only one who stayed bulid the ROMs.
As almost all ROMS from Dark9781, links are dead.
To try the latest ROM do a normal clean version for everyday use, to be able to serve with the device.
All possible ROMs I tried and all use more memory than the official ROM.
Request is then
start top left because all the programs written for it.
thenks

bluetooth AVRCP
I'd love to have Coreplayer recognize avrcp commands so that I can abandon the lame windows media player an dlisten to flacs.

I use the Snapdragon hardware accelerated version of Coreplayer on my own device, but I can't include that in a ROM; Coreplayer is commercial software.

In that I am not sure.
Well TitaniumUI is included in Windows Mobile 6.5+ by default. It doesn't take up any RAM if you don't use it. Simply go to \Settings\Today\Items and uncheck Windows Default.
If you install, this and only this HTC taskmanager.
Because it always works flawlessly
htc_task_2.1.cab

And then this program:
MMAppLauncher v1.0.CAB
link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795393
start with windows
override start meny
You get 7-10 mb free memory.
The biggest problem is that this program was never completed and make a shortcut for the camera so that you can not start the camera without problems.

Well I have great news.
I have been able to figure out how to build ROMs using the newer style ROMs from LG.
This means that I can use the OEMDrivers from the GW825V and GW820_V10g.
It also means I can build ROMs for the GW825V.
I'm just working on a test ROM that I can post to see if it works for everyone.

Of course that it appears to try as soon as possible.
Because this is a totally useless device!
On t-mobile, can not even mms!!
Has little to, no longer working link to dragonstorm roms.
All the other ones are full of bugs, or use lots of memory to
slow machine.
ROM from AT & T has too many programs that no one will ever use.
So a nice little handy device and fast or should be.
When with task manager FdcSoft v3.3 stop all unnecessary processes, it works most quickly as well as HD2.
Only GAPI drivers are slow as the HTC Wizard or worse.
example:
GAPIBench 1.5-arm on the float test Topaz 1.6800
On the IQ 0.6900
Very gladly start up left.
Because lots and lots of programs simply will not work otherwise inc beautiful program Total Commander.

great news trueg. Look forward to testing it out!

OK, here is the first test.
I'm not sure in what format you guys want these distributed.
I simply zipped up my LGMOBILEAX folder and uploaded it to MediaFire.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ibkzdxnlp5h8umu/LG_Monaco_Test01.zip
In Windows XP, you would simply extract this to
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\
For Windows 7, extract here...
C:\Users\All Users\
I use 7-zip...
http://www.7-zip.org/
Then run
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\LGMOBILEAX\SmartPhoneSetup\SP_Starter.exe
If you are running a stock ROM, the application should automatically reboot your phone into emergency mode and start flashing.
If it doesn't (gives error that it can't detect phone), you will need to reset your phone manually and hold down the space button on the keyboard to enter emergency mode.
This ROM should work on GW820, GW825 and GW825V (all LG Monaco devices).
The OEMDrivers are based off of the GW825V. The rest is almost directly from GW820_v10g (AT&T).
Since this is just a test I didn't make many changes.
Please let me know if this works and if there are any problems.
If it works, I will use this as a base for the 6.5 ROM.
The reason I used the GW825V OEMDrivers is because it provides more RAM and storage (take a look at the Memory).

[Q] Android on HTC Diamond

You can actually install android alongside of winmo. Try searching for xdandroid and you'll find what you are looking for.
ALso search for neopeek, it might help.

Android on Diamond
There are my experiences with Android on Diamond:
I used XDAndroid (Foryo, ver.FRX06). Installation is not difficult, they were two "catches" during installation in my case: First, I had to delete ts-calibration file to recreate display-calibration data (after first boot it was completely broken) and second, finally I had to (full)format Internal Storage (FAT32) because Android didnt see internal storage ("sdcard").
So, now I have working android. Synchronizations with google account works, wifi work, GPS works. But I cant install anything from Market - very annoying, I dont know yet how to fix this. At least I can install application directly from .apk files.
Summary:
Using Android on Diamond is pain. System is slow. If you are used to use some fast (winmo)ROM, you will be horrified. Let's imagine slowest 6.5 rom with TF3D - and android is even slowest . Sometimes, the response is so slow, that system detected "not responding" application and offers to kill it or wait (choose wait ). Diamond has limited memory, after boot you will have about 30MB free (depends on widgets used). Also, battery drain is terrible.
Despite all, android applications works. So, for testing, playing and get familiar with android, its fine. Then, when you'll assure yourself android is good, then you'll buy a true android device (Just for comparison: my wife has LG Optimus One, pretty cheap device, but android works much much much faster and smoother than on Diamond, its really different league, incomparable with Diamond). If you want to keep Diamond, for everyday use, go back to any fast WM ROM, (BSB is my favorite), install SPB Shell and Droid+ mod.

Pretty weird,on my diamond was faster than a wm6.1 + sense 2.1,maybe because I hardly ever used frx06.
But frx06 shouldn't be slow,there are a lot of users that like it's speed and stability,so maybe you were unlucky or with wrong/old files..

Hm, could it be possible "wrong" files makes working but slower system? Maybe it is about frx06... Can you help me to install any different android version? But keeping wm is necessary condition, so I think xdandroid is the only option..(?)
