pardon me im a noob around
but pls can any1 help me here? ...i have an o2 xda2s and i want to change it to wm5 ...
i dunno how to do it with no knowledge of any scripting language and i dont seriously get the whole concept of ROM....EXT ROM...and MKROM for the fact.....
if any1 is able to help me out ......help is greatly appreciated...
i would like to know how to that exactly....and pls try to help me get the concept of ROM
Your best bet is to search this forum thats how we all learn how to do it. The tools to unlock your BA can be found on the ftp site and all information you require are their on the wiki link at top of the page here.
i dont think u got me since i mentioned i quite dont get the terms.....i just want to know if yu can help me out and wether it is possible to upgrade my o2 xda 2s without damging it...
plz some one just help me out....

Hi Dreadlord,
In a nutshell, yes, it is possible to update your unit.
My personal recommendation to you is that you stay with what you have. Presently, there are few advantages that you, as an end user, would gain from an upgrade to WM5. Perhaps, it's just an appearance issue..?
To Upgrade a BA to WM5 requires some end user knowledge of the day to day running of the device and if you're having problems understanding the daily terms within posts here then you might end up damaging your BA.
Don't forget that these ROMS are not official releases. They are patched reverse engineered Operating Systems that still, at this stage, feature bugs & code issues. Granted they are getting better with each release and I strongly believe that one day they'll be a "plug & Play" version that people can just load and use..
This is why I presently am running the latest 1.42 WWE ROM for WM2003SE.. Yes, I have updated my BA to WM5 several times but I have always downgraded again to WM2003SE as so far as I rely on my BA too much for it to use [compared to WM2003SE] an unstable system.
Another thing is that the majority of users on this forum have all had to read the wiki on here and learn. There's very few people who are lucky enough to have this kind of information in their brains already. (Click the link in my Signature to start reading Wiki)
You might not get a good response from others on here if you reply in bold (or caps) stating that you don't understand things - It's not their fault you don't know..
Hope this helps..
Cheers!
Blah Blah.. etc etc.. Hehe
My previous post was my 100th - I'm an an old salt now.. hehe.. Apologies for not being around lately.. I've been in a different country!
Hope all is well with everyone..?
I've noticed the high degree of work that's been done lately on WM5 and all I can say is:

Shaps Rom 3.75 FR
I dont flame people because I know im a noob myself but I you might want to go and "develop" some flame retardant clothing or hope they close the thread.
In regards to your question, lets just put it this way, it is something that has been discussed and revisited again and again and again and again and again and well, you get the point. Anyway it has not been accomplished by the resident geniuses so it looks a bit hopeless. They have done button flo though but this gets old pretty fast.
3.75 ??? where ?? where ??
CLOSE THIS THREAD. THIS GUY IS A MORON.
I love how people think they are important enough they can just ask for customized roms for themselves.
Oh im sure they are going to get right on this for you dydof, your a genius.
As I said so many times, I will include TouchFlo in my ROMs when it will be fully functionnal. But I will make additionnal CABs for my ROMs with "ButtonFlo" for thoses who would like a "Touch Like" Hermes.
FYI I will release a beta of my new ROMs in few minutes.
Great information...a new beta!
1 000 000 of thanks Mr SHAPS , it's a real big deal and a one of the most information in this thread ...
All my respect for you , you are the best .
now for the B E T A!
son of a GUN.. cant wait all night tonight.. just remembered im working early tomorrow... have to be up early..
ButtonFlo...Schaps
Schaps
I have pm you.
I do have buttonflo working everytime including hr and sr.
When it reboots it still works.
I am using Schaps 3.60a and made a few minor mods.
I am willing to offer it to you schaps for future roms if still interested.
there is no such thing as impossible
we just need one of those htc asian techs to post the work around to get it working on a hermes unit?
call in the japanese
I have stumbled upon what looks to be an updated version of WM6. Unfortunately the rom is in Russian and I do not have the time to translate/flash (I am in the process of moving) and was wondering if anyone was interested in taking on this task.
I don't want to give out too many details as there has been some backlash in the Wizard Mobile 6 forum due to a similar rom, so please pm me if you are in helping out. I will try to check my messages as often as possible, but understand that I cannot hand this out to everyone at the moment.
Thanks in advance.
(ps. it claims to be wm6.1 but I can't confirm as I do not speak Russian, but the files seem legit...)
Can you please post a link to download this "russian ROOM"
i wouild like to see how is it working on hermes - Thinking of sending one to a friend of mine in Russia.
umm i was lookin into building my own rom.. translating one could be a good preparetion i think so link me?
Hello guys!
I know that you guys support only HTC phones, but duo to your amazing works, i decided to ask here. I have I-mate ultimate 9502 wm6.1 and i would i to have wm6.5 (very jealous lol). My question is:- anyone knows if there is any cooked wm6.5 for ultimate devices?? or if there is any cooked wm6.5 that can be used on 9502?
Thanks
I'm using 9502 and 6150.
And it seems this site is HTC Developers or something like all-except-imate developers. They won't create subforum for imate, not even one. And if I ask something about imate, ppls here will just switch to pretend-that-there-is-no-post-about-imate mode... even if they see it, they just banish ppls that ask about imate stuffs.
And personally I think this site, XDA-Devs is so bad, not only they so HTC-crap oriented. Many ppls here just cant solve any small problem, for ex: my Windows Live Messenger Mobile's emoticon suddenly disappeared for unknown reason..
I ask it here and no one able to solve that...
How do you expect ppls here CAN or ABLE to break imate ROM lock to create new WM6.5 or upcoming WM7 ROM?
I'm so pessimist with people here, they're so HTC oriented and don't care about imate users. They should change their name to HTC-Developers so ppls know that this site is not for all PDA...
its so sad and disheartening...
but thank god i have a htC
thank god i have a diamond lol

No! Since there is Sony Ericsson's PDA and some Palm PDA here also...
And this ppls here is so HTC minded..
HTC = CRAP!!

XDA is a specific kind of device manufactured by HTC. XDA's all share a common architecture which means the unlocking and ROM flashing process is very similar. The Xperia X1 for instance was manufactured by HTC and thus shares this architecture. Devices such as the imate ultimates are very different. Perhaps they could be figured out too, but unfortunately there just may not be enough popularity for those devices. Whether or not a device will have XDA support is a factor when I decide to purchase a wm device.
Perhaps someone else can give a better explanation of what exactly an XDA is but hopefully you kind of get the idea from my explanation.
I know XDA, it the old kind of PDA, before PDA (from Wikipedia).
What I think is: even 9502 got the same hardware as Diamond, so what's the diff?
I can use Diamond's driver and HTC things in my imate, so what? diff architecture? I don't think so...

honestly not to blow your bubble but i doubt you will ever be able to update winmo 6.5. as for a cooked rom , you are definetly not in the right forum . i checked on google for you and theres so custom roms having 6.5 or even 6.1 lol . so i think you could just try spb mobile shell to give your phone a new look . . sayonara
No, you can't since 9501 got more advanced function like Quadband GSM, Tiband UMTS, TV-Out and many more. Plus the ROM Update is locked with special password.
But the rest, the basic architechture (MSM7200) is the same as Diamond.

Hi, that is the difference between imate and htc, you mention it.
And I guess, not just that, they can share the same architecture, but there's must be many differences between the two pdas.
let say an xda atom comparing to hp ipaq 6282(cmiiw), they both hv same hardware configuration, but they have really different drivers to use.
And maybe that's why there's no such cooked rom 4 imate,etc
Thanks for the suggestion, I wish it had worked.

No, won't work, even if you have an HTC device and try to install a ROM that was intended for another HTC device still won't work, ROMs are device specific.
Btw, I had an Ultimate 9502 but I sold it because of the limited support that Imate devices have and I got an HTC instead.
I don't think you'll be getting any more support anytime soon because the company has been closed.

Yup, you're right. But I think there a bunch of clever devs here that can oversome this lil problem I guess... Or my guess is wrong? Devs here are not as clever as I think so they can't even break this ROM lock?
I'm trying to cook a ROM now for Ultimate 9502, tho i'm so professional but i know how to read those amazing threads that you guys have writen. My question now is:- is there anyone who can help i case i need some professional advices??

WOW! ^^ Yup, there's some people here like Shonky or casouzaj that can help you... I can help you a little, but not for doing program disassembly. I had tried to reverse engineer the EUM for flashing but couldn't find the solution for ROM lock. But I'm able to confirm that the camera.exe for 9502 is natively capable of GPS-Photo but lack of required registry code/system files. And the A-GPS is supported but no one can utilize the API. For A-GPS, you can check in the registry, there is a key named HKLM\Software\Mobi\agps, inside there's some keys with blank value. Tried to fill them but got no luck. Hope you can continue developing ROM for our devices. Thank you very much. ^^
You are welcome man. What i really need to know now is how to find the damn XIP start, i have read maybe all the threads about xip but still the damn RomMaster is giving me an error. In my opinion there is somethinig wrong when i splitnb and then imgfsfromnb, it gives me an imgfs that has a size of 0 is that the right way u did it?
Hmmm, from the way that I did....
I just read it somewhere that the core and XIP for imate series ROM is compressed. Therefore need additional tool to extract it. So we can't extract it by usual HTC ROM method.
And I just realized that, and that's explain why my compiled ROM got smaller size than the original ROM even though I didn't alter anything, just decompile and recompile.
heyy im new here,

yeah....
i live in Indonesia....
waiting for WM6.5
asus has said that it will not develop wm6.5 for asus m930
and by the looks of it there wont be a wm6.5 rom for the phone except the one @ the 4pda russian forum, (i cant post the link here =/)
since the forum is in Russian its hard to contact the rom developer to ask about future development of wm6.5 for asus m930
the reason im not using the rom is you cant change the sliding panel (add new panels) and the only editable panel is the " setting " panel
the rom has no office mobile, wmp was removed but visually the rom is stunning
ohh well, were even lucky that theres someone even cooking a rom for the m930
im now looking forward to buy a htc s740 (but the s740 is also missing a wm6.5 rom but from what ive read in the s740 forum it is under development =D) which is similar to the m930 design wise, and has a more powerful processor than the asus, but for now the m930 will do for me =)
