Thanks. Yup, I am already using a resource editor, but I need to figure out how to extract the coredll.dll from the XIP.
[HTC Tornado] dbshane:
You can serch "dump xip" in http://wiki.xda-developers.com/

To the two guys works on the rom: I have an idea that why not replace the coredll.dll with the file of released wm6 rom such as dash or vox...Just a suggestion, I am a noob....hahaha
[HTC Tornado] indiekiduk:
just dump the rom using pdocread and extract the files using viewimgfs. We have a wiki so people don't continually aask the same questions, well some continually do anyway :p :p

Language Pack don't work on WM6

BAD NEWS this language pack:

http://www.user.cityline.ru/~ronswens/langpacks.html

don't work in WM6 rom..i tryed to install it on WM6, but i needed an hard reset because after setup the phone don't boot fine..

I want to ask an other thing too.. what about the T9 in the ROM you are cooking? there is in it how and what languages? :confused:

Looking in fast time to dump the .dll file and edit with an Hex Editor.. the summer is coming :D

P.S. The pic of WM6 on tornato posted are copied from e cinese site!! is it a fake? :eek: :confused:

Regards..
[HTC Tornado] lixxus:
dont think its fake.

cause someone else on the internet...im guessing czech republic has already got wm6 on the phone.(dnt look like they care about build numbers as well.)

http://smartmania.cz/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3527&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
[HTC Tornado] giuseppebitonti:
oh no.. but i know that the rom exist.. i cook a typhoon version and if i did this all is possible :D it isn't what i means.. ;)
[HTC Tornado] ragor_ali:
yes there is WM6 rom for HTC TORNADO. i downloaded from chinese forum and uploaded to the rapidshare. WM6 rom for HTC TORNADO is here...

HTC TORNADO WM6 ROM
[HTC Tornado] NiTroGenious:
:eek: :eek:

I hope this is not a joke!!! Well, now our "cookers" could use the coredll.dll file from the leaked ROM and their trusted source will not be traced by M$. :D

Still looking forward to the Vanilla version. :)
[HTC Tornado] arpy:
Awesome:eek:
[HTC Tornado] DSF:
have you tried it on a TORNADO? cos i don't want to brick my phone..
[HTC Tornado] arpy:
Cool down guys..this is a fake...only a higly modded WM05 Rom...and not Crossbow!!!In Chinese...ill flashback to IphoneRom
[HTC Tornado] NiTroGenious:
...too bad! :(
[HTC Tornado] ragor_ali:
i thik you are wrong. did you tried this rom?
[HTC Tornado] AN7 OverClocker:
I think he tried it.

Right now i 'm upgrading to this rom just to see..
[HTC Tornado] pyrorob:
rom is fake

yes this is fake i just loaded it on my phone and as far as i can tell its just the iphone rom (same build and everything) with a wm6 skin, start/shutoff screen and icons but thats it, no t9, has celetask and clock on top, so basicly its the iphone rom...
[HTC Tornado] arpy:
yessss...no more to say....fake....just a tuned Iphone Rom...higly tuned,of course...
[HTC Tornado] pyrorob:
add to that...

one thing i did notice thou is that in the about information it does say that it is aku 3, but the system information wont come up?..
[HTC Tornado] ragor_ali:
yes sory guys this rom is fake. i have tried too. i deleted from rapidshare.
[HTC Tornado] giuseppebitonti:
Oh yes.. i surfeng the web for 3 days.. i beleave me! no WM6 rom anywhere the only rom is this chinese FAKE WM6, that i flash 2 days ago on my tornado.. really really bad!!

We have no wait only for this ROM from our lovely cookers :D

In YOU we hope! ;)
[HTC Tornado] AN7 OverClocker:
yeah...i tried to see system information but no luck..
[HTC Tornado] Captain Astro:
:mad: It's Fake!! I try it. It's chines WM5 Rom :(
[HTC Tornado] quite98:
I wonder how unique these build numbers actually are. The numbers in the Czech screenshot are exactly the same as those reported by the Typhoon WM6 ROM.
[HTC Tornado] arpy:
yes..on my Typhoon Device with wm06 and this naggy JoysticProblem..
[HTC Tornado] giuseppebitonti:
Hay guy.. is possible that the rom is realised in this week? after that i'll go to sea and will be amazing to have your built on my tornado.. ;)

please do the possible! :rolleyes:
[HTC Tornado] thenext1:
To our beloved ROM cookers: what is the build version of your WM6 build?

In the DeviceEmulator i have the ones seen in the screenshot (sorry for the italian):

"O.s. CE 5.2.1235 (build 17740.0.2.0)"

instead, in the screenshots in this topic I see "OS 5.2.318 build 15341.0.0.0"

isn't it too old? possibly and probably buggy?

sorry for the bothering, every time...
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
Ok, after some buggering around with the XIP, build numbers have been fixed to 5.2.318 and 15341.0.0.0 :D Alpha release within the next few hours, depending on how cooperative my PC is ;)

Phil
[HTC Tornado] AN7 OverClocker:
hell yeah :D
[HTC Tornado] thenext1:
do someone have a native WM6 phone (liek tmobile dash or htc S710) to check what the final release build are?
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
sandman, personally, i prefer the vodafone v1240 rom, but thats probably just me!

do you still have the xda iq rom installed on your phone?
[HTC Tornado] bluehanson:
Cooool, well done!
[HTC Tornado] lixxus:
nah like a prick i went an installed the latest qtek rom.

didnt even bother backing up the o2 rom or dumping it.
[HTC Tornado] bluehanson:
Does .NET Compact Framework 2.0 pre-installed in the WM6 ROM? Thank you for your great work.
[HTC Tornado] lixxus:
cant wait for the rom.. finally its here

congrats to both of you guys.
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
Reconstructing the IMGFS now ;) Just have to test and then upload if it works well :D

Phil
[HTC Tornado] mingw:
I have the HTC Cavalier aka Dopod C730

OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3)
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
CF2 its part of WM6 ROM, no worries

well, this sounds cool, after months of anticipation, finally its here

Btw, you can actually put in any build number right? If that is the case, even if you put your source's build number, he can claim that the build number is edited?

Another question, since WM5 and WM6 are based on the same Windows CE, so probably most of the WM5 apps will work on WM6 right? Especially some essential tools such as WM5torage.

Everyone, let's start a new thread and post all the CAB files, shall we? Or we post it here

Again, I would like to thank everyone who have contributed to this ROM cooking, especially our 2 ROM cookers and your source :)
[HTC Tornado] lixxus:
just quick brief would be nice.

the current rom status that will be released.

what will it include and etc..whats needs to be done before final is released..

thanx guys

regarding the build numbers...as long as it changed to what everyone else is using...as the pics i posted suggest..then i dont think it will mattter..cause it wont lead back to the source.

not as if u show off ur phone and go to ur mates...look at my build numbers.
[HTC Tornado] kongocui:
WOW!!!!!WM6.0:D
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
New thread with all the cabs (office, WLM, xT9 etc) would be good, as people can then install stuff on top of the vanilla ROM without being lumbered with the stuff in the stuff they don't want in the other versions.

BTW, flashing now :P

Phil
[HTC Tornado] dbshane:
Just upload it:D :D I can't wait
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
Bugger, just discovered a rather large error in initflashfiles.dat, so basically there are now only 4 items in the start menu :D

Will fix and upload soon :)

Phil
[HTC Tornado] c4software:
WoW Great :)
[HTC Tornado] AN7 OverClocker:
Soon.

How soon?

Do you have time for today? :p
[HTC Tornado] lixxus:
chill man....i rather it come out when its all sorted

otherwise u might end up having a bricked phone...

so let him sort it out. im sure ull be able to test it today
[HTC Tornado] Lovetz:
Great news! I am Russian, where I and other non-english speaking people can download language pack or only language they need in?
[HTC Tornado] AN7 OverClocker:
Man...i was just kidding:confused:
[HTC Tornado] bluehanson:
Guys, be patient.
[HTC Tornado] czf918:
A special day! A special time is coming! WM6 DAY!
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
Just adding the finishing touches now :D

Phil
[HTC Tornado] AN7 OverClocker:
You are great man :D:D:D:D
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
Could people now start requesting programs to be put into different builds please!

if its not too much, i may even start cooking custom roms for people if they want.

just list the programs you want, those that are most requested will go into a single release and i will make the cab files available for everybody else!
[HTC Tornado] bogdi1988:
office!

wmp if it is not built in

things that are included in wm5 and not in wm6 rom

instant messaging program that works with yahoo, msn, and aol, and maybe google. i have one on my wm5 created by oz and it would be nice to have it again

maybe a program that allows people to select where to save files downloaded via bluetooth

opera

tcpmp

that's all from me :D
[HTC Tornado] pedroms1:
Is it possible that not only the xt9, but also the rom is in other language than english? (like say.. portuguese?)

In this first alpha, will it be there xt9 in other languages?

Great work!
[HTC Tornado] Narren:
T9 in rom or in separate cabs for different languages, plz :)

Russian T9 most wanted :D :D :D
[HTC Tornado] kongjudas:
Some kind of modem driver/emulation. I honestly don´t know of any but I´m sure you guys has the knowledge. I could really need a voice modem!
[HTC Tornado] tezet:
I think we can work later on localization packages/localized ROMs by extracting localized MUIs from WM6 emulator images.
[HTC Tornado] duke_stix:
i will look into localisations:

so far: portugese, russian

shouldnt be too difficult, what i will do is create the localised packages release to a few select people to beta test and then release en masse

at the moment this is what i have decided on as extras (semi-essential, not a definitive list)

Clock On Top

Celetask

Mobireader

TCPMP (latest FREE build)

regeditor

once it is released properly by phil, we will also be looking into keeping development going providing we can both dedicate some time to it. at some point there will also be a kitchen released for the tornado.
[HTC Tornado] piotroosh:
Polish.. Polish.... ;-) pleease ;_)
[HTC Tornado] rootcad:
and french please :D
[HTC Tornado] thenext1:
are you talking about OS translation or T9 langs?

if it's about OS translation i can send you the MUI files contained in my emulator image!

anyway please include italian :D
[HTC Tornado] imfloflo:
Thx a lot :cool: , French language too and automatikeylock and cellprofillswitcher will be great to.Pmrecorder will be ok ?
[HTC Tornado] kongjudas:
Norwegian would be great... we´re allways left out up here ;)
[HTC Tornado] revanmj:
i would like to see polish wm6 rom too :)
[HTC Tornado] ducamie:
does anyone have an idea of how long it will take for the wm6 rom to be uploaded?

should i go out and come back, or will it been soon enough to sit here and wait?
[HTC Tornado] lixxus:
i dont think you should go out man... god forbid.. you might go out and the rom is released.

very dangerous
[HTC Tornado] ducamie:
well if its gonna be a few more hours i could go and get some fresh air
[HTC Tornado] spvc500vn:
CF2 will install on storage card?? I hope it true because storage memory is very small
[HTC Tornado] lixxus:
yeah man..just go out and chill...come back later on...im sure the rom will be here.

the day is long...enjoy it
[HTC Tornado] DSF:
duck_stix & phil: WM5 T9 language pack is compatible with WM6?
[HTC Tornado] giuseppebitonti:
no.. i tryed the WM5 t9.. but it dont work!!
[HTC Tornado] kartam:
The day is ending!

Will it be yet today ? Or shall I wait 'till tomorrow?
[HTC Tornado] revanmj:
what will be?? WM 6 ALPHA is already relased ...
[HTC Tornado] kartam:
yes, I know ;p

I just didn't notice that because I only looked at this thread
[HTC Tornado] sebbes:
Reading the readme stuff, It seems like I'll wait to have at least a decent CommMgr :)
[HTC Tornado] AN7 OverClocker:
i think that the connectivity manager that it has is just ok.
[HTC Tornado] DSF:
then we have to grab the t9 language packs from other WM6 devices (such as HTC VOX)

BTW, duke & phill, can you use the HTC VOX ROM? It's better than the actual rom..
[HTC Tornado] kartam:
hey, look at this:

Why does my music sound like chipmunks are singing?

Don't worry, small rodents haven't set up housekeeping in Windows Media Player. Instead, your sound card's clock most likely has a timing problem. To fix the problem, try reducing the hardware-acceleration level for your audio card by doing the following:

1.

In Control Panel, open Sounds and Audio Devices.

2.

On the Volume tab, in the Speaker settings area, click the Advanced button.

3.

In the Advanced Audio Properties dialog box, click the Performance tab, and then adjust the Hardware acceleration slider control to adjust the clock timing for your sound card.

Keep in mind that, if your sound card supports multichannel (5.1) audio playback, turning off hardware acceleration (by moving the slider to None) will cause the sound card to play all multichannel audio in stereo (two speaker) sound.

If you can't fix the problem by adjusting hardware acceleration, check for updates for your sound card by doing the following:•

Check for sound-card driver updates. You should scan for updates on the Windows Update Web site and also check for updates on the Web site of your sound card maker.

•

Check for Microsoft DirectX updates by scanning for updates on the Windows Update Web site.

it is related to PC sound but maybe the reason is the same?
[HTC Tornado] obelcher:
re: WM^TornadoALPHA.exe released

Please help! The download was a zip file but the message says to run WM6TornadoALPHA.exe. I do not see that.

When I extract the zip file, I see two folders: Extra Stuff and RUU. Inside RUU, I see EnterBootloader, nk.nbf, ROMUpdateUtility, RUUGetInfo and RUUResource.dll.

Which application do I run?

Thanks for your time ... and great work!
[HTC Tornado] revanmj:
you must run ROMUpdateUtility
[HTC Tornado] obelcher:
Thanks! That worked great! Appreciate it!
[HTC Tornado] iron1:
ah yes!!! thats what i dreamed of!!! cause its really difficult to find any means to make a rom that dosent have the music keys feature to map them to thier proper function... like the c600 i love how it looked but i reverted back to the qtek 8300 rom coz i couldnt get the music do thier job!!!

if you legends could make - a Qtek 8300, Imate SP5m version and a Qtek 8310, Imate SP5 version of WM6- happen... thats just so brilliant!!!
[HTC Tornado] Lovetz:
jm012a9749

You wrote:

"There will be a.zip with the relevant shortcuts for each model in it that you just need to unzip to the /Windows folder on your device..."

I think this rom will be flashable, and this zip file will contains only shortcuts that we need to unzip to Win. folder after flashing, isn't it?
[HTC Tornado] xxxxchrisxxxx:
I see in the wm6 thread that Duke Stix has nearly got this ready for release :)

Will my phone need application unlocking again by editing the registry if I put this ROM on the phone or not?

Also, thanks for your hard work on this.... looking forward to trying it.
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Wow, i have just read Duke_stix signature... Three different WM6 builds on his hands!! Let´s hope they release the best one soon
[HTC Tornado] dm251z:
Who needs qtek/imate/htc/t-mo customer support with folks like Duke_stix, Phil, Alex... xda-developers ROCKS!
[HTC Tornado] xxxxchrisxxxx:
Is there an approximate release date for this? are we looking at a few days or a few weeks? :)
[HTC Tornado] dm251z:
probably weeks, based on the "official thread"
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
As soon as i get duke_stix's new fixed ROM (active sync etc), I'll start embedding t9, celetask, camera and all the other goodies you've asked for. Lang packs will follow at a later date (both me and duke_stix have exams that need to be passed :( oh the curses of still being at college lol )

So, current list of whats in:

t9 (english only with language packs to follow)

Office

Celetask 2.0

Camera

Updated comm manager

Optional cabs:

Windows Live

Language Packs

Whats still missing:

Arcsoft MMS client

As soon as I've embedded the above into the ROM and removed the identifying build numbers etc, it'll be released :)

Phil
[HTC Tornado] chocula81:
Thanx so much for your effort. Good luck with your exams ;)
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
Can we have a basic ROM and the rest as CAB files? So we can really have a choice on what we really want. I believe certain files such as celetask can be installed via cab
[HTC Tornado] Ryu Kenshin:
Personally, I like those microsoft haft cooked softwares like IA Manager kicked out. Beside I think we're more than happy with a full cooked rom, install directly all what you need in one go. Just like the famous Chinese Iphone rom.:D
[HTC Tornado] dm251z:
post suggestions and other stuff on this tread.

post suggestions and other stuff on this thread, keep official one clean.
[HTC Tornado] iron1:
i agree with yah bruv!!! i so wanna say things and keep on commenting on the original page but i refuse to cause it was stated that we should keep that thread clean but all this noobs just keep on posting there "when's the realese?" or "i hope you put this and that in the rom" or even just to say "keep it up" i know they want to hear all these but that is the reason why this thread is created!!!

SO TO ALL THOSE NOOBS!!!

KEEP THE OFFICIAL WM6 THREAD CLEAN!!!

NOOBS WILL BE BASHED MERCILESSLY!!!
[HTC Tornado] nshopik:
Yeah what I would like to see is proper number formating by mask. If you get call with number +71234567890 you can format it by mask from registry or whatever like +# (###) ###-####. USA already this get out of box in WM but other countries not ;)
[HTC Tornado] mijxyphoid:
Personally, with the limited amount of space on these devices already, I am in agreement with other people as to keep the ROM simple and as vanilla as possible.

Office is already available as a CAB file.

With Cab files, at least you have the option of installing the files to the storage card...

My biggest problem with my SP5 at the moment is I need the Compact Framework v2 installed, as well as MS SqlCE 3.

Both of these really need to be installed on the Device (I knoiw you can install them to the Storage Card, but there are some performance issues when you do this)....

The problem is from a memory reset, and just installing these 2 cabs, my SP5 has 1mb free space...

Within 1 month, that space gets chewed up from temp files, registry bloat, and naughty application data....

What I am really looking forward to with WM6 is having all the crap cut out of the thing... (Those crappy stock gifs/ringtones/bloatware that you cant delete.....)

I would be over the moon if I could edit my existing WM5 rom and cut all that crap out myself.... Unfortunately I wouldnt know where to start (but very willing to learn if someone was to point me in some direction)...

Its an unfortunate thing really... I think everyone here is depending on duke_stix and jm012a9749 to cook a product that Microsoft should have provided to us in the first place...

We should all be patient... This stuff does take time (especially when its only 2 people working on the base). Also, these guys are working on this project purely out of the goodness of their hearts...

People trying to force the situation by saying "is it ready yet?" Isnt really providing much incentive to those working on the project.

Let duke_stix and jm012a9749 drive this project ! Im sure that they will release it to the public when they feel comfortable and ready to do so !
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
WRONG, the latest Compact Framework v2 SERVICE PACK 2 can be installed on storage card !

Even without the release of the service pack, you can edit the registry files and place CF2 files on your storage card

[HTC Tornado] _Ogni_:
Hi,

could there be an SIP Client integrated in the rom or made available via a CAB? (I heard there is already one integreated in the OS, is that true ?)

BTW. are the camerafiles still needed?

LG Ingo
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
CF2 is already in ROM... WLM is being removed from the ROM as it is already available as a separate cab in this forum. Office was in ROM but has now been removed as there is a CAB on the forum posted by myself. T9 (english) is in ROM with other language packs available as cabs. All those crappy default pictures, sounds etc have been REMOVED! Rejoice! ATM, there is about 25mb of storage available. All that needs to be done now is modify the build numbers and fix the cpl.xml issues and fix the camera... Unfortunately, me and duke_stix have exams coming up (curse of still being at college lol), which, quite frankly, is more important than WM6 for tornado. So expect a release around end of June.

We will release it when it is ready, not before.

Phil
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
That is cool, right now I seriously want a vanilla ROM as I have 0.00MB left in my phone ! And I have no idea what software to remove !

Anyway, is WMP11 mobile available as CAB? Because I like the smartsearch feature.

And, in the vanilla ROM, do we have ActiveSync ? Or need to be installed from CAB?

What is actually 'plain' - do we have stuff like Internet Explorer, Tasks, Calender, Messaging, Contacts, Call History, Settings and so on?
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
Stuff in the ROM:

WMP

IE

Calender

Messaging

Contacts

Call History

Settings

ActiveSync

Camera

Calculator

NO CRAPPY DEFAULT ANIMATIONS/PICTURES/SOUNDS!!!!!

Thats it... We will also be offering a slightly more 'pimped out' version with WLM, Office etc in ROM

Phil
[HTC Tornado] DSF:
what about Sound Manager, BLuetooth Explorer, Java, Adobe Reader ?
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
What about providing files such as Voice Notes via CAB? And what about video recorder?
[HTC Tornado] c4software:
Thanks jm012a9749 for the update :)
[HTC Tornado] slidfx:
hello has all I would like to know if C be possible D to have wm6 in alpha or beta version for y decouvrire of the bug and to be able to create mui Fr

i' m sorry for my English
[HTC Tornado] jm012a9749:
Oh yeah, the notes/record app will also be in ROM, along with that Pictures and Videos app. I tried embedding the good old photo album software instead, but it didnt run :(

Sound Manager, BLuetooth Explorer, Java, Adobe Reader are available as cab's already and so will not be embedded in the ROM

Phil
[HTC Tornado] jimmyboy:
jm012a9749 can You write little review about this new ROM for tornado(with screenshots):

what's new, what's performance in compare with WM5

what with WIFI? what with shared folders and remote desktop

Sorry for my English ;-)
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
When you release the ROM, hope you will put all the links for the cab files together.

Thanks
