Still we consider it as done, although sourcing for chip & soldering is another problem! Thanks & congratulations for another milestone in PPC dev & hacking courtesy of you Sir mamaich!

With the limited Uni storage solved, this "old" device is a candidate for longevity & usability like the Himalaya that has survived 4 Windows CE ROM's.

I'm curious if the patch can coexist with the "unharnessed" 22Mb memory (Flash Disk) in G3 devices, just in case ROM cooks finally makes it standard for G3 devices? This is forward thinking on a fully loaded Universal.

Sir, thank you once again & also to all who have in one way or another contributed this success!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
That sounds really good. Thank you very much mamaich for all of your efforts.

Hi, I have the ram chips from dead Himalaya board - Infineon HYB25L256160AC, it seems to work with Universal?

Thanks, :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] JDark:
No. You need 512Mb chips - HYB25L512160AC - 2 pcs. There is NO place on board for extra chips - you have to remove old and install new, there is no other way.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] WoodyWoodpecker:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] WizP:
Guys. If your interested I just spoke to Infineon (The memory section is now a company called Qimonda) today and the HYB25L512160AC has been discontinued! I have however gotten some contact details and spoken to a guy who will quite happily sell these in small quantities (Or bulk)

the empty places are NOT for RAM Chips :rolleyes:

Greetings ...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
Yes. They are for NOR flash. Universal was first designed for WM2003 and was unable to boot from NAND. Now these spaces are completely useless. And the other free space is for a GPS chip.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] shoulders:
shame we cant add the GPS chip, or is this next.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] wovens:
Dreaming out loud!

Wow,

I am speechless!

Can we have the ROM extended as well as the RAM so we could partition it to have Linux and WM6 installed side by side and choose (dual boot?) which to use? (dreaming...dreaming....dreaming)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
I gave the test ROM for several people, it is stable, but working only on G3 devices both with 64 MB and 128 MB RAM. I can publish it here if needed.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] suzhoukim:
I need the rom asap.

Can you sent it to me.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
You are absolutely right.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
So here is the ROM. Use it as is, I would not answer any questions on ROM cooking or mods based on that ROM until i'll publish a final version with G4 support. Rom is stable, i'm using it in real life for several weeks. It is based on WM6 build 18533. Incorrect cooking based on this ROM would cause stability issues as all drivers and OS kernel are heavily interdependent.

Your Download-Link #1:	http://rapidshare.com/files/69366055/nk.rar.html

Features:

- 128 Mb RAM support

- Page pool is completely turned off (size is set to 0xFFFFFFFF), so no modules are ever paged out. This still leaves lots of free RAM and gives a good speed increase. Of cause you'll get almost no free RAM on 64-mb devices ;-)

- ULDR is removed, so we have extra 3 MB of space in ROM

- Free space left in OS ROM is now accessible as a "Flash Disk" folder. It is 12.5 mb in size

- Extended_ROM is returned to its original function. I use it for installing my favorite apps after hard reset, and recommend everyone to do the same. It is writable by default, but hidden. There is a known bug - its content may be destroyed if you unhide extended ROM and use it a general storage. So keep it hidden, you have "Flash Disk" or SD-card for storing your data.

- Usual fixes: overclocking applet, Fn+Letter would work as Ctrl+Letter (only for english/russian kbd layout, and only unused keys), GAPI and display driver performance is optimized, SDHC is supported.

- Double tap on the only button of old BT headsets (those who don't support handsfree profile) would launch voice dialer app.

- \Windows\RouteBTAudio.exe - run it and it would route all audio to your old non-A2DP capable headset. Program is identical to "Bluetooth Audio Router", "BlueMusic", but is completely free. Source code is available on request.

- Apps included: MMS 4.x, Voice Dialer (with bluetooth headset support), Adobe PDF reader LE. Recommended APPs to be added to extended ROM: flash player, .cab to turn off security, SMS delivery report fix, WM5NewMenu, WM5torage

Known bugs:

- Extended_ROM would break if used as general storage. Keep it hidden!

I don't use extended ROM so this bug probably would not be fixed.

- G4 devices hang on boot screen. I'm working on this, but don't have G4 device to test, so it would take lots of time.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] pigeonking:
I have a stupid question....

If I don't upgrade my universal ram to 128 mb...then i install this rom,

will it be harmful to my universal?

(I mean, my universal only has 64 mb ram, then i upgrade this rom, is it ok??

Because I want to upgrade rom first, then i can go to ask others to upgrade my device's ram to 128 and test it if it run ok at once.)

thanks a lot
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] pigeonking:
I have another question...

can somebody post the process of upgrade ram to 128 mb...

after reading the post, I know I should have the infenion ram, and unsolder the old ram, solder the new ram. i read the wiki,too. but i still don't know the meaning of cut some point.

I have to know the process to tell other skillful guy to upgrade ram for me.

By the way, if i want to DIY，i need a solder gun(i hope you know what i mean), what do i need else??

thanks a lot...

And thanks mamaich, you are so great....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] jackielo:
mamaich,

GREAT!!! Can you guide us modify my own ROM to work on 128M RAM?

Jackie
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] suzhoukim:
I have upgraded this device successfully,thank you very much for mamaich

but this device have few bug that this can not display 64m rightly

I expect that master-hand keep doing work the best rom will be created for you l believe
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] King of Rapture™:
Thanks mamaich,

I have installed the ROM successfully on the 64 MB Uni.

It is very fast ROM, after hard reset I have 38.50 MB on the Main Storage and 16.00 MB on the Flash Disk.

Now a newbie question. Since the ExtROM cannot be unhidden but it is writable, so how to write my favorite apps. into it???

While installing the favorate apps. it doesn't show the ExtROM as an option to write into it! :o

Thanks,

KOR!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
Hey mamaich thank you very much for your hard work.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
Take my NK, all XIP, all drivers.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
This would not be fixed - as 64 MB is displayed in just one application "Device Information" applet. The constant is hardcoded, you can patch it to anything (1 Gb for example) by editing EXE :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
Inhide it as usual. Then hide it back.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] suzhoukim:
Thank you very much!

Have a good day!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] suzhoukim:
Yes, we can use "Flash Disk" or SD-card for storing your data
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] King of Rapture™:
Hi mamaich,

Thank you for your quick response. I tried the above with two different unlockers and copied HTC Audio Manager which is about 10MB. But it doesn't work.

However, when I unhide the storage, it does works perfectly! :)

Thanks,

KOR! :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] King of Rapture™:
Hi mamaich,

It is very beautiful and fast ROM. But with no page pool there is no enough ROM left with a 64 devices.

Is it possible to turn the page pool in the registry? And, how?

I know that by doing so, it will slow down the ROM somewhat! :)

Thanks,

KOR! :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
as usual. Edit NK.NBA as shown here:

000021A4F0: 9B 4F FF FF 64 B0 00 00 │ 64 00 00 00 B8 F3 57 90
000021A500: xx xx xx xx 00 00 00 00 │ 48 80 55 90 D4 D4 55 90
000021A510: EC 03 55 90 10 48 57 90 │ 98 C5 55 90 0C C5 55 90

Replace xx xx xx xx with the desired pool size. For example 00 00 70 00 would give you 7 Mb pool. Remember that byte order is reversed.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] civilma:
OK,I hope can upgrade my 900 RAM.

:)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] renhui:
thanks for the rom, Mamaich. Have you ever thought of modifying the latest official t-mobile wm5 (aku 3.3) to make it compatible with 128MB RAM? I would think lots of people are still sticking to this "old" wm5 version based on stability consideration.

Again thanks for all the ground-breaking work you have done on Universal!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mamaich:
IMHO it is just a waste of time. WM5 is too slow, buggy and inconvenient :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] WizP:
Managed to get 10 of these chips so decided to have a go at this. All was going well till it came to cleaning the old solder of the pads. Then disaster struck. I managed to take off 1 pad underneath each bank :( Decided to have a go at replacing the pads and soldered on the new chips anyways. Did the short and rebuilt the unit. Tried to turn it on and :( Nothing - Am afraid I've bricked my beloved! Am gutted!

Anyone got a working motherboard they are will to part with? I have the chips so maybe a swap of somekind would work?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] tom_codon:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] hugo_boo:
What would happen if i upgrade my xda exec (hardware) fail? will it die?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] King of Rapture™:
Hi mamaich,

Once again thank you for your kind support and quick response. :)

I never done such kind of things. There is always something new to learn in life.

Will give it a try during this weekend. I believe I will need some kind of hex editor!

Thanks again,

KOR! :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] GSM Coolhawk:
It's possible to repair if you have right equipment, however it does depends on the damage of those pads ripped, is it via hole pads, or is it pads with lines? If you wish you could ship it to me for repair, I'm usually very good at this ;)

I have already upgraded 2 uni's, and both working perfectly, thanks and shouts to Mamaich who made this possible at last, been waiting nearly 2 years for this :D

And it's a deadly fast beutiful ROM as well.

Regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] pigeonking:
Excuse me!!

I want to upgrade by DIY, becuase i can't find someone to do it for me,I know it's hard to do.

So, could you please list what equitments i should need and post the progress of upgrading??( picture is plus).

thanks a lot.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] WizP:
Well all is not lost yet. Took a trip to the x-ray machine to see how the soldering went and had managed to connect the lifted pads ok, but there were a number of shorts underneath on several of the pads. Good job I've a good supply of these chips as I've no way to re-ball them. So wish me luck as I try again. Hopefully there is no damage done to the micro.

By the way if you considering this with out either a hot air or IR rework station then save yourself the hassle and don't bother (These start at £400 and the IR £30,000 safe to send it to someone who does this professionally). Your chances of success are 0% Even with proper equipement there is a chance you'll brick your device. I think I'll review my motto

If its not broken try to improve it!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] GSM Coolhawk:
Well, WizP already listed some of it, apart from that

1: IR soldering station a plus (But not a must, but it's easier this way)

2: Digitally controlled Hot Air station

3: Preheater station (otherwise you wont get those ground pads soldered)

3: Antistatic Workstation

4: Microscope 30x magnifiction in case you rip pads and you need to repair them

5: A lot of exsperience in mBGA resoldering

Process

1: Remove old flash chips with hot air station in conjunction with preheater (or use IR station)

2: Clean pads

3: Put new flash chips

4: Flash device

5: And vuptu uni with 128MB

Sorry, I have no pictures

Regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] rookee:
can you recommend this hot air station?

http://shop.wiltec.info/tabshop_s/aoyue_968_3in1_rework_loet_station.html

or do i have to take this one?

http://shop.wiltec.info/tabshop_s/aoyue_768_repairing_system.html
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] GSM Coolhawk:
Well, if you have never used a hot air station, and never changed a mBGA component, do NOT attempt this! you will destroy the board. Give it to someone who knows what he/she is doing.

As for Hot Air stations you link to, both will do.

Regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] catch-22:
Hi GSM Coolhawk,

Good to learn from someone who had successfully done the upgrade procedure.

Just curious, you never mentioned shorting out the pins indicated in the previous posts. Is it really necessary or you just failed to mention it?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] GSM Coolhawk:
Of course, the short is requirement, see also WIKI.

Regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] WizP:
Wow!!! Finally got the Chips soldered on and all I can say is amazing! Every program I own and the broadcomm bluetooth stack running and voice command and still have plenty of RAM free. It was well worth the effort (And almost bricking my device!)

Currenty there are a total of 21 applications running and there is 27.41MB of free RAM!

Any chance of getting this new fix bundled into some of the New ROM kitchens i.e. Beast and Co.

BTW I have 4 chips left over if someone is having trouble sourcing these in the UK

Regional setting

Hi,mamaich:

I had used your rom to upgrade my phone, but i happened to a problem.

The time zone(or country) in your rom excluding my location.How could i deal with it.

For example:your rom lack of traditonal chinese(big5) setting, how can i add the 「traditional chinese(big5)」to the regional setting manually?? (use registry editor or edit the nk(rom)??)

Like mToken(telnet software), with other rom, mToken will show the "traditional chinese(big5)" selection, but yours doesn't. I think the difference is caused by the rom's regional setting lacking of the traditional chinese (big5) selecton???!!!

thanks a lot

--------------------------------

After re-install wince.nls, i got rid of the problem.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] rookee:
thanks for that, but don´t you think i can practice on an old Mainboard and start if i feel ready?? Is it so difficult for an amateur??

maybe there is someone willing to help me with this modding?

I am from Stuttgart and will be very happy if someone would help me (theoretically or practically)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Wiz:
Would there be anyone willing to perform the upgrade for me on my XDA Exec in exchange for material+donation? I would not want my two left hands to come near the PCB or a soldering station for that matter :-)

Hi Mamich,

It's very interesting that the XIP location of your rom is different!! My friend, what was the reason behind....

It's not possible to use "rommaster" tool to extract the XIP but I did it by ultraedit.

THANK YOU very much

hello guy:

may be you do not know that many of the public is using you ROM in china.

recent days witness the stormy tide of updating ram of 128MB in chinese motherland. I do not think that wm5 is stable for software based on the condition ofWM6,so you may not spend many time on amending rom of wm5. in china ,because many users is not able to equip sdhc card for all kinds of reasons. you ROM that is compatible with sdhc device is not fit to chinese user. so l holp that the rom that is stable for chinese users released in the future. by the way l regarded you rearch for d900 as ground-breaking feat.

secondly ,many fans are urgent to see device of g4 that will using ram of 128MB. I was said that G4 device is excludeing the sphere of updating ram. did you encounter a few of obstacles during the work .I believe that you are genius,youn will creat another miracle of G4

I respect you work very much the d900 device is recreating miracle of kingdom of ppc phone.

Currently Im using Photo4tune on my Galaxy S III because someone told me that the privacy settings of the other chat apps like Whatsapp and Line are compromised. Has anyone used Photo4tune before? Any idea as to if it is any better with this app? I love the following features of this app though:

1. Fire messaging

2. Self destruct pics

3. Cool funky and free emoticons

4. No subscription fee

I would like to know if anyone has used this app? And also what other chat apps would you suggest? Eve though I'm quite happy with the app I just want to make sure privacy while sharing isn't compromised!
