Looks like someone's downloaded the raw ingredients that were posted earlier and made a fairly clean ROM out of it, but it'll need some tidying up by the chefs who know what they're doing when changing any drivers etc. Certainly not me.

Can't see WM6.1 having psshutxp (with a skin) or phm regedit preinstalled so I assume they're someone's oems.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sobepmp:
or maybe he meant "dump ****s" I never heard of it either.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] the_passenger:
that's PDAVIET version. My rom is based on that version (re-cooked version). The OP posted a link to pdaviet so what do you expect ? :D

so far it's running ok.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boz:
Now have all related radio apps working, SMS, MMS and GPRS. I used ArcSoft MMS v4.0.31.23 to restore MMS to my Hermes. Test messages sent all ok. Will investigate further tomorrow.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KarhU:
Ok guys, some comments after using it for some time:

1) New stuff

Fancy "Getting Started" Today plugin that provides access to the basic Help pages for the most important device functions.

2) Reworked SMS part of Outlook capable of Threaded view (finally), possibility to spell check your message before sending it.

3) Contacts - possibility to change preferred number on the in the all contacts view - i.e. after you move the focus on the contact in the list, you can cycle through it's numbers and email addresses by perssing Dpad right or left button.

4) New Task Manager (resebling Schap's one) - with multiple views showing RAM consumption and processor load. No possibility to change X button behavior though - you will still have to use your favorite task manager :(

5) Domain Enroll applet in the Connections tab of the settings. Did not have opportunity to test it.

6) New greenish Windows splashscreen and default theme.

7) New IE views - already described by others

Apart from this, the cooked in apps are relatively old, ROM itself feels quick (will check that using Benchmarking app). Did not have any problems with it so far.

Put the device into bootloader mode connect to your PC's USB and try flashing again.

How about bluetooth PAN client support?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] klabton:
Rename RUU_signed.nbh to HERMIMG.NBH. Put it to /StorageCard. Insert card to phone. Hold Power + CommMen and reset witch stylus holding those buttons. Relese stylus. And folow steps on the screen :) that means: wait few seconds, then press Power Button. After update complite, reset with stylus. Should work.

Cheers

nope... not working... just keeps going back to the htc screen... :(

And do You have tri colour screen when You press buttons and reset? Do You have OliPro bootloader?

Hi, guys,

This thread is very hot and I care it for some time,

I have to say something about Hermes' ROM of PDAViet,

I've downloaded it and dumped it,

There is sufficient evidence to prove their XIP Parts is FAKE,

Look at my attachment,

46 CD = 18125,

This XIP Parts come from WM6.0,

There are much more differneces between WM6.0 XIP parts and WM6.1 XIP parts,

Actually, There is some SYS parts is AKU1.1.0 in their ROM
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] klabton:
If the list of "changes" is so short, as it says here( this is smartphone version, so ignore some things): http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2007/12/03/windows-mobile-61-standard-in-100-pictures/

then i think, MS didnt change so much compare to old WM6....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] esmith:
Only get tri color when I hold the power, ok and stlyes at same time...

No for OliPro
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] klabton:
OliPro should be a pillar for Your Hermes... Now it's a problem. There is some other methods.

I suggest to start here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick

He is in China now,

He is one of most popular chef of Hermes ROM in China,

I always use his kitchen.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Pumpiron579:
Is the build that was posted on rapidshare worth flashing or not?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KarhU:
New kitchen would be most appreciated, It is interesting to see a different take on ROM cooking. This time with Chinese flavor ;) Btw. very popular Quick menu app available at this forum is also Chinese.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] myv6mustang:
Works fine here...nothing special tough....internet explorer seems a little wierd though. I used the storage card method to flash.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jarotbudiono:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Pawel062:
that typo was a typo on purpose so those young ones will not know what i really wanted to say. we need to remember lately that xda is all over the place and young people also come on too. it was ment so that dump=dump and the ***** is u know what already.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Pawel062:
ok let me shed some light on this rom. the rom as far as i know is as genuine as it gets. us cooks have had our hands on wm6.1 builds for a while. hermes builds in beginning were most common. the earlier build of wm6.1 i could remember is 19012 for hermes which is a few months bac now. wasnt very stable as u could guess so i didnt even touch it.

this build comes from one of my buds here on xda from his sources. it is a port of a kaiser rom to the hermes. it is very genuine. because it is a port it will give u guys some false hopes and show as a fake but it is not.

darkforce has like always though the absolute latest builds. one thing that never changes though is how bloated the tmo wm6 builds are. ugg they can even ruin the latest and best builds :p

Bluetooth still in issue

I installed this rom today on an 8525.

Had an initial issue with the Radio. I just had to select the frequencies manually and the signal was detected.

Rom overall fast and it is so far a keeper.

I had high hopes that it will be more compatible with the bluetooth car kits but my hopes are dashed. I still have the no audio issue unless a call is already in progress.

Short of that, it seems to be stable but it is barebone. most of the required third party utilities are not there. It requires some cooking.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hoatienii:
this room not includes Radio.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mchapman007:
How did you select the frequencies manualy? I also flashed but could not get to connect.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KarhU:
Go to Start>Settings>Phone>Band

and set whatever you like.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mcorrie1121:
Well the bootloader (tri color) screen is what you want. While it is on this, connect via usb, then flash your old rom the same way as usual. Should be good to go.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hoatienii:
a beautiful Room, but can use USB HDD:(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] myv6mustang:
I guess so...the file explorer is incrediably fast as compared to the other versioins. Nothing super special but just like any other custom rom u get on teh board just have to add what you like to it. I will roll with it for a while as it seem s very promising and i havent had any issues with it yet.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KarhU:
Yeah, the file explorer is like on steroids - you can see it from benchmark results I poste earlier - it should be 25% faster than the older builds.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] myv6mustang:
im sorry I just had to post b4 I went to sleep. started installing software and holy cow...the installs are blazing. that with GSfinder and hold on. that alone makes the upgrade worth it. this will b my rom til someone makes something else out of it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pablo11:
No problems installing. All seems to work ok so far. No issues with radio etc.

After running advanced config and checking the registry i find no Ext Rom. Superstorage?

I can't get softbank signal!!

Help me please ..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
You probably need to change your band to UTMS. The details are in the thread somewhere if you don't know how.

Once you get a signal, try installing the SB proxy settings and MMSlite and see if those work. I'll be waiting for a report.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jarotbudiono:
Yup it works. I got the signal, but I can't get messaging working after installing MMSLite 265. MMSLite 2.75 doesn't seem to be working either. It doesn't create MMS1 as it should.

I think it's time to back to where I belong, Kin0kin 1.30b Full.

Hi,

I've also tried arcsoft mms 4.2.8.1 but the mms account and options aren't created, so no mms support.

Anyone got this to work?

I've also noticed that the batery icon doesn't update to the real batery status and after charging the icon stays always charging.

Regards,
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RanDomIze:
I have the same.

Extrating now to make a 6.1 clean ROM and a 6.1 BigStorage ROM.

The ROM dont have the RGU files and some mor files that i need, so will be a hard work and for a few days.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] luiggi:
It doesn´t for me

I flashed, played for a while (all works fine, except that I couldn´t make PocketCM Contact mode to work) and regardless the "new" features I´m going back to my favorite WM6.

Managed to get MMS to work, MMS settings are there & able to edit the settings to my telco settings (see screenshots below) ..installed the arcsoft mms cabs from berd's 4.31 lite ROM thread

..with regard to batt icon.. did some modifications to the dialer pad by installing schen's 3G dialer over & above it & did some tweaking to the registry with regard to file system cache enabling & have disabled the same (emulating WM6 Default setting), & after that, it seems that the images including the batt icon seems to refresh correctly (after charging etc) without having the prob u mentioned above..

try it.. good luck bro :D

p/s btw ..love the new look of audio manager in this ROM

Edited

For convenience purposes Arcsoft MMS above is uploaded herein

Not really a good rom. It's fast but not stable. After you installed your choice of program. The rom will hanged and need to reset the device again. sometime even worst and need to manually hard reset the device.

I have come across installed quite menu from Nanling(it's a great program) but after a while the device get hang.

This 6.1 Rom not stable at all. I guess need time to find out the bugs. :rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lampiao:
Hi,

Instaled :

QuickMenu2.7.387.1527;

Kaiser comm manager (schaps 10 button one);

Kaiser 3g dialer (the same used on schaps 4.30 rom);

Wktask 1.1.7.3;

Schaps Advanced Config 2.02.0.2.0;

Arcsoft MMS 4.2.8.1.

The problems:

Had to disable the BigTitleBar (deleted key in registry), it causes volume problems in call;

MMS tryed some cabs, but the one supplied by kipe on post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1863358&postcount=143 works fine;

Batery icon is static, changes to charging but doesn't resume normal icon, it also doesn't show the correct batery state.

In the overall in my case is working fast and stable.

I have experienced following problems with this ROM:

1) Battery Icon not working properly

2) I got stuck in the boot process (after SR) and had to hard reset - except for SPB Benchmark I had no program installed, no setting changed - pretty much a vanilla setup).

This ROM is not stable, it can hang at the boot for no apparent reason even without any apps installed. But we are still using a cooked beta code aren't we?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] duke_stix:
come on! leak it to someone over here so it can be cooked to destruction! sounds very promising

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] nanastas:
Not Ready For Prime Time

-spontaneous hard-resets (while trying to install programs)

-won't accept backup of databases from sprite backup

some nice eye candy and I like the new version of IE, but not stable at all unless you use it naked.

Yes- activesync and activesync exchange direct push worked fine.

if your screen goes off right after exiting from sleep:

to fix this activate the "DISPLAY SWITCH" program again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] marttin:
Same here, ~20 hours using the Rom.

Did softreset few dozen times but never got stuck on the boot.

Have installed:

- wktask

- batterystatus (newer build)

- oxios

- Schaps advanced config

- Chinese language support + Plum SIP

- magicall

- PhW, PW

- PocketCM 0.19b

- No Data

- HTC Home Customizer

- PK White + Color battery icons - works well

- maybe something else :)

active sync works

I had only once freezing of the device. Was surfing over GPRS, and the device freezed for couple of minutes, but get back to normal on its own later without the need to softreset.
