Yes place the folder ExtROM in the root of \storage Card and then:

1. If you have installed the 6.1 already:

using file explorer open \windows and click the file Auto_Run.exe. and forget.

2. If you hav not flashed 6.1 ROM yet:

flash the ROM after placing the folder ExtROM as stated above and hard reset.

It is all given in the howto.txt provided with the ROM package. Unfortunate thing is that you dont read.

Thanks c_shekhar for the rom... Its installed flawlessly on my XDA II phone..

Re: TomTom6 Backlight

I know TomTom6 back light problem has been discussed before. It worked OK on WM6 but stopped working on WM6.1. I get error message "The file 'TomTom' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with trusted certificate, or one of the components cannot be found" I edited the same file using hexeditor and put it back. I also used Fix error message CAB. but no joy. WM6.1 is a great ROM. Thanks to C_Shekher and others who contributed. To resolve this help will be appriciated.

problem installing

hey,i tried to install this cab file but it says i'll have to remove first the helmi file explorer with this ROM before it can be possible to be installed. how would i do that? thanks.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] ermoas:
WM6 File Explorer

Hi krame03,

are you using:

ROM: 6.1.1b16CS (WM6.1 AKU 1.0)

dated: 22.Feb.2008

OS 5.2.19199 (Build 19199.1.0.0)

after I flashed this rom(release: b), I noticed that the default WM file explorer is in use so I

1.) copied the cab file in my sd card

2.) used wm file explorer to locate and run the cab file in my sd card

3.) choosed device as my target installation destination
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] mns123:
Thanks, Shekhar. works flawlessly for me, except:

After Hard reset message appears:Storage Card\ExtRom\Task Manager.Ink does not exist!

When OK is pressed everything loads.

Where did I go wrong?

Please Help, I can't Connect with PC Activesync

I really like the new feature of ROM 6.1.1b16CS, congratulations C. Shekhar!

I need help, though. No matter how many times I install/re-install latest Activesync, (4.5.0), my XDA II is not recognized by the PC anymore. What's happening? Please help. I tried searching the thread about this problem but I can't find any.

Thank you, thank you!

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] c_shekhar:
Strangely nobody pointed out this problem so far. I checked my store and it does exist.

enclosed is the zip file. unzip it and

1. place the contents in the \Storage Card\ExtROM

2. Copy and paste the shortcut available in the unzipped folder into \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Jadel:
I can confirm what mns123 said. I get the same message about the Task Manager.lnk, but you click OK and everything else installs from the ExtRom so I didn't think it would matter.

Another bug that I have found, which may or may not be an issue, is the driver for the Spectec Wifi card, which worked in WM6, no longer seem to show up under the "Network Cards" application in WM6.1. I am not sure if this actually affects the functionality of the card though (I ran mine over with an office chair, whoops).

Also, I had a question for C_Shekhar. Would cooking the .Net CF 3.5 into WM6.1 make any sort of speed improvement? I notice it still uses CF 2.0. Some people seem to say it would, others say it wouldn't. What are your thoughts?

Cheers
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] c_shekhar:
to my mind (though has limitations ;)) 3.5 is does not affect the speed. It is required for those applications which have used the advance features (commands) of 3.5. So far I am yet to see a useful application which demands NETCF 3.5 .

Moreover cooking ROM for hima with NETCF 3.5 is out of question. Getting 1MB of extra space without sacrificing an important utility/program has become a cherished dream now.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] mns123:
That is

the

TaskManager, I want. There are many more Task managers in the ROM! Thank you Shekhar.

Are there seperate mod's for each section of an PDA section?

Well, to be honest there really isn't a set of requirements but there are some things common amoungst your Moderators.

First, we are all recgonized as active and contributing members fo the forum, For some of us our contributions were/are as Rom Chefs, software developers etc and for others it was being helpful to other forum users and working actively with the existing Moderators by actively reporting violations of the site TOS and helping keep us aware of developing situations which required out attention.

Second, we are generally a group of very knowledgable PPC/SP Phone users. Most of us have years of experience even going back to the days when a cable was required to connect your PPC to your Cell phone and GPRS was slower than a modem from the 70's (some of us even remember those modems from the 70's - Acoustic Coupler anyone!). Now there are some who don't do back that far but certianly have caught up to (and even surpassed a few of us) in the "knowledgable" category.

Third, we all have come to love XDA-Developers and want to help it continue to develop (ha ha) in a positive manner.

Finally, we all volunteered for the gig and have accepted the highly exaggerated paychecks that XDA-Devs provides. Okay so the paycheck isn't real but how can you put a price on knowing that you are helping maintain something that inspires and guides so many users on a daily basis.

PLEASE DELETE THIS MESSAGE ITS A DUPLICATE!

Morning All,

I have some very basic questions for you guys, which I am sure you all would know.

Background

========

I have been using Tofclock WM6.0 for a while now but I have questions about it. Firstly, I installed Google Map on it and then TomTom 6 along with MSN and Office 2007 which gave me a low space error messages. I uninstalled Googlemaps and it was fine. Now when I installed Palringo on it along with TomTom 6 it starts giving me the same error message. I cant install enough software on it.

Please help!

Many Thanks

2: (Optional) How can I fit all those programs onto my Hima (MSN, OFFICE 2007, Palringo and TomTom 6).

Thanks dude!!!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Jadel:
Hi there,

Just wanted to point out a few other things, just for your own interest.

1. If you are using Tofclock ROM then Office 2007 is already installed.

2. I have read and seen other people with TomTom installed to their SD card, including maps (which obviously take up much more room then the Himalaya has built in so don't install TomTom maps to your device).

3. It sounds like you haven't unlocked your extension rom. If you unhide and then unlock your extension rom, you can double your storage from 14mb to roughly 30mb. It makes a huge difference in the amount you can install, and is useful if you have no plans to use the extension rom. I believe the device to unlock it is called the Hima_Doc_tool or similar. Do a search for it on the forum (and read up on how to use it before you use it).

Hope this helps.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] jaytheguru:
Morning Jedal,

Thanks for pointing out these issues. I did manage to get the ExtRomUnlock tool and Hima Doc Tool and have successfully increase the space, however now I am using C_Shekar latest 6.1 Rom.

Many thanks for your kind reply.

Jay

Hi guys, I've searched already, and found nothing that answers my question, so that's said. Now, my Windows computer (a laptop) was SMASHED by a cousin of mine. That was the computer I used for flashing :P (everything else, I'm an Apple-lite, so I use my MacBook Pro and Mac Pro) But now I can't flash. Is there any way to do this with Missing Sync? on Mac OS X?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] efexor:
No there isn't. To bad. I use a Mac too (and the Missing Sync). All the rom flashing and stuff happens on a PC.

But...

Since you've got a Mac with an Intel processor, you can use Apple's Bootcamp or some sort of Windows emulation app.

Flashing on a Mac Solutions

I also am searching for a solution to this problem. I have a Powermac G4 so, alas, I can't do mine through intel via bootcamp. I would have to spend the money and lower myself to Virtual PC. I'd rather put that towards a new Macbook Pro! You can do it through bootcamp. I did it at my Dad's house on his macbook pro while I was visiting.

In my searching I've discovered that you can flash via your sd card, but you need a program to extract the .cab and make a change to the file. They were sugesting cabextract. Problem is, that it's not available in Leopard right now, and I haven't found another solution yet. I'm still searching though. If anyone can give any more light on this or correct me if I'm wrong that would be great. I really want to come up with a solution for us mac guys!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fone_fanatic:
After my desktop fried, and i'm always on the go, i purchased a macbook and its my primary computer. I use windows xp running through VMWare's fussion to flash roms, hardspl, cid unlock, tether.. basicly everything for my WM devices. Works perfectly fine for my hermes and kaiser, but wouldn't work on my wizard(that was with parallels) and haven't tried on my magician.

Anyways, i used to use parallels before fusion and it also said it needed an xp sp2 cd, but i went ahead and installed it through the xp sp1 cd and downloaded the sp2 update after xp was installed and everything worked out fine. SO go ahead and give it a try with sp1 and see what happens. Also if you decide on running parallels or fusion, make sure you have enough ram! (i have 2gb ram on my macbook and fusion is set to use 1gb when its running and it runs perfectly!)

Hi, have a slight issue with my Vario III which is bugging me. The autocorrect feature has stopped working, meaning that (for instance) when I type into the To field on a text or email it doesn't automatically suggest a recipient.

Not sure if this is related or not but I also have an abc logo that appears in the title bar at times. My guess is that this may be related to a SIP I had installed (possibly the Touch Keyboard which I had for a while).
