Got it!!!Woohoo!!!!!

I have finally got it! The simple way to flash a phone:

You will need the following before you begin:

A ROM image- for the Treo 750 it’s usually a CHEEIMG.NBH file. Look around in the forums for these. The latest and best (because it’s what I have on my phone) is Windows Mobile 6.5 by navenedrob’s release. Works great, a few minor bugs but nothing serious.

Then you may need a memory card reader for formatting. If you want to be brave, Google a flash formatter for Windows Mobile 6. You can format the card straight from the phone. I did.

Once all that is done, follow these steps.

Make sure you have a memory card formatted to FAT32 (Not FAT16 as normally offered by Windows).

Place the ROM image onto the memory card in the root folder (Just put the thing into the memory card).

Run CheetahUnlocker and select Flash SPL. When the phone loads up in Bootloader mode, the computer may not recognise the device. Just give it time, and fiddle around with the USB cord. Try a different USB port.

Once the computer has recognised the device, it may be too late and the a soft reset may be needed. Quit CheetahUnlocker, unplug the phone and wait for it to fully restart.

Once it has restarted, connect it to the computer via USB and make an Activesync connection.

Run CheetahUnlocker again- MAKING SURE THE MEMORY CARD WITH THE CHEEIMG.NBH IS INSERTED AND RECOGNISED.

The phone will launch in Bootloader mode again and give you the option on installing the ROM software.

At this point, you can ignore the computer, everything with (or should) run smoothly from here.

Press the “Call End” key and let the phone do its business.

Once everything is installed, soft reset the device, there is no need to remove everything from the phone memory as it will have already formatted the phone.

Now enjoy your new operating system.

Many thanks must go out to Olipro and Navenedrob for their ingenuity and brains…

Hope this helps!!

eD.

Love this ROM!

Have had in on my phone now for a couple of months. When we do get an update, I can only imagine how good it's going to be. I am so satisfied with it, best ROM I have ever had on my Treo. The only glitch I have noticed now that bothers me is the way when you press the phone button, you get a sorta contact list. I'd like to see a really slick contact/phone app that interfaces with the ROM. Thanks again for your great work!
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] edzdamangere:
I think that new Contact list is a feature microsoft have embedded into all the update. My Treo 500 had it, mind you it was a smartphone...
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] crt60:
I'm wondering if navenedrob abandoned this project...
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Alfa123:
Inusmuch as his last visit here was 1.Sept. I'm afraid I ought to learn "How to cook own ROM" :mad: But I still hope he might come back...:)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] PangOS:
Yea even I downloaded the kitchen...but didn't really delve into it. It's working well enough for me.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] tootall2:
I have a theory

I have a theory that every time someone gets close to completing wm6.5 for Treo someone at Microsoft finds them and tells them to stop or else. Look at Veisen he was going great guns then fell off the planet, the same now with Navenedrob. I'm really not a paranoid person, I think!
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] sateshchand:
microsoft released 6.5,now it is better to have the final version instead of buggy beta realeses.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Alfa123:
Yes, you're right. But you have to buy a new phone. That's why we have xda-developers forum.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] k101d:
Absolutely agree :rolleyes: don't forget chaimd (first man from Japan who cooked wm6.1 lite)

BTW I still happy with this 6.5.

k101d
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] darksabian:
agree

i think that those guys knew too much, thats why the aliens from microsoft took'em, or broke their legs....

i hope our hero to be still alive...

anyway, whoever now who can cook the original new version of this program will become a new hero!

[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] PangOS:
Not me, I need *my* legs....:D
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Alfa123:
:D Yes, me too. So it seems we have to keep 6.5 R2. No problem, I still like it - it's stable and good working.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] calvin_sy:
Who's still using 6.5 and who's switched back to 6.1.

Long time reader. I've been waiting for R3 for months also and in two minds about upgrading.

My 750 has recently kept crashing on stock 6.1pro - everything lags and i have to reset multiple times, very tempermental.

Going to 6.5 means i have to apply all sorts of softmods to get keys to work etc. If I have to hard reset, I'll have to reapply all the softmods.

Does the top silencer slider work? Its important for me as I have to silence my phone often during work hours when I am in meetings.

Battery still drains fast?

If navenedrob was still around I'd ask for his paypal details to donate some money for his great work.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] edzdamangere:
I've been using this version for a few weeks and it runs fine. It looks great on the phone, but the biggest issues are the lag and the amount of RAM it uses in idle. Battery drain is not too bad, I can have my phone last at least 3 days on standby with texting only. Phone calls and data usage take considerably more battery power.

Another is the SMS Message tone. Sometimes it decides not to alert me to a new message. I don't remember this happening to 6.1 so...

The silencer switch works fine and turns on vibration mode as normal.

The most noticeable positive change is the GUI. Everything is on the home screen, everything you need I mean. However, the fact that the home screen features aren't customizeable is annoying.

Otherwise, a great ROM. I'd recommend it unless you feel that the issues I highlighted are not worth the upgrade.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] calvin_sy:
Thanks for the info, much appreciated.

I have to charge my battery everyday - it will last at best 2days. Half brightness and most times sitting on my desk doing nothing. If I use 3g/hsdpa while wating in line etc it kills the battery.

I'm getting tired of the 6.1 look and feel when I've seen pics of 6.5 and they look nice.

Need something to tie me over until Jan 10 when my contract finishes and I can get an iphone (with 3 Australia). Nearly bought an Xperia x1a.

6.5 will probably keep me interested for another 2-3 months.

Looks like I'll be playing around with the roms tonight.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] calvin_sy:
OK - i updated from 6.1 pro to 6.5 last night.

upgraded via kaiserRUU method after unlocking via cheetahunlocker.

using the apps pack rom - i don't have a brightness option under settings > system. where and how are you guys adjusting the brightness?

i read through the thread and searched and everyone says there is a brightness option - i dont have it.

without using software can i assign a hardware key to lock? the option under settings > personal > buttons dont give me enough info to know which key is being assigned.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Tabbe:
ok, back to official 6.0

missing too much of oem function, making the phone not usable, its just a downgrade of pda phone to pda + hsdpa only...after all what are we looking for on a phone?

can we strip the official rom and add in 6.5 stuff?

Reprogramming Buttons

Is there a program for 6.5 that will help me program the buttons on my phone. I am having a time trying to do it. Not the keyboard, but the 3 on either side at the top of the keyboard. If someone knows of a program that will make it easy would you drop the link in a message where I can download it?
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] omabatlak:
I have just installed this ROM and - SHOCK!!! - I was greeted with the following msg:

"this concludes the beta test of the software release. Thank you very much blah blah blah...To obtain newer release, please revisit website..."

All functions are disabled, including ActiveSync, so I can't upload any other ROMs. I'm screwed!!!! Please help!!!!
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] startngate:
Well, 'this' ROM (meaning navenedrob's) does not have an expiration date, so you must have installed a different one.

If you download this ROM, you should still be able to install it using the SD card method which does not require ActiveSync to do.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] omabatlak:
How do I do upgrade using SD card? Basically, all functions are frozen, can't click any buttons, despite resetting it to factory defaults (which is really this ROM I just installed)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] doorpz:
I flashed the rom fine but seem to have the ringtone bug. I can't get any audio files (ringtones, music, etc) to play but the speakerphone works fine. I flashed back to 6.1 then back up to 6.5 but still having the problem. Is there a seperate fix for this or should I just try to flash it again?

thanks.

oh yeah i'm running the appspack version, might try the base version and see if i still have issues
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] edzdamangere:
I don't have the same problem... In fact I don't really have any problems at all...

To flash from the SD Card, format the memory card to FAT32 format and load the ROM. Insert and reset the phone holding down the media button at the same time.

It should load into the Bootloader screen and then ask if you want to install the new ROM. Press the call end button and it should load up...

Oh and by the way, Navenedrob's Rom is not a beta Rom so it shouldn't have locked you out.

[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Trikratus:
Really it´s Work ??

Hi guys, I´m newest here and I have many doubts about this version WM6.5 for Treo 750.

This rom its fixed the problems whit the off screen using the red button ?

Have problem whit sound ? this work or not ?

And I can´t find any advices about the real bugs or what not work.

Anybody could you please help me ?

Regards,
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Alfa123:
If you read this thread you'll find requested information. Red button works for return to main menu. Doesn't work for call termination. No problem with sound. This ROM is unfinished version but works for me. You can find all bugs in this thread - especially first several pages.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] calvin_sy:
if you install the apps pack - it includes cpu xscalar for overclocking - but it also has an option to turn off screen. you can display this option as a button on the screen and tap it to turn screen off. but it doesn't lock keys.

if you happen to accidentally press the red button the phone is live and anything can happen with screen taps or button presses.

what i do is - set backlight to turn off after 1min.... then i lock the phone (Start menu button, left key). and leave it there till it turns off.

ie is nicer with the scroll and mouse - but i find its much slower than 6.1 loads slow, loads pages slow. there is no ability to create start menu shortcuts. and really dont like the way they've laid out the start menu icons in a diamond fashion instead of grid. the novelty of smooth finger flick scroll goes away fast.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] libal:
there is another option :

It is written in this thread : to change the bottom ( to close the screen)to another one - for example the madia player bottom. look for it in this thread...

could u plz tell me which program i use to extract the cheeimg.nbh file from the zipped file.

i tried every thing i know (winzip, winrar, alz and another one i forgot right now), and it's always the same failure (no files to extract??)

or is this a problem in the file?

plz feed back, i tried the beta version and went back to 6.1 after it expired.

i am hopelesly trying to use defferent browsers and mirror,
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] startngate:
If you are trying to extract the files from one of the desktop updaters that are out there, you need to run the desktop updater as if you were going to install it that way. As part of the process it will unzip the CHEEIMG file. You then have to find it in the temp directory the desktop updater creates. Copy it out to another folder and then stop the desktop updater.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] PangOS:
Does anyone know if files and registry keys could be taken out of the '21193' rom and be used in the '23017' to get the 'Red Button' Working? This is the only issue *I* have with this ROM.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Typpi:
I just installed this rom on my tre 750...

I live in Finland and I use Saunalahti as my operator, at first with my treos stock radio I couldnt connect to internet using 3g/hsdpa it only used gprs/edge connection. When I upgraded my radio to the newest I could find (v1.56.70.11) it fixed my problem. It still shows in connection manager that my connection type is cellular, gprs but icons while connected blinks as 3g and h and the speed feels correct :)

Only things that dont work are The Red button that puts tre into standby and hangs phone, but it works in other places.

Also there isnt a button where I could close my active 3g/hsdpa connection, but if someone else is experiencing same problem fyi you can close the active data connection by going to connection manager and choosing to manage existing connections and from there press cancel... Always works for me.

Now i noticed that when trying to use java programs almost all which has selection whether to use voices wont work if I choose to use voices. Without voices no problems at all.

Btw sorry about my lousy English =/

Use Keyboard to hibernate, Lock screen, open applications, get to settings

Power button to suspend/hibernate (red button function), just press alt then space. Turns phone off (hibernate). see pqz1 image

Lock keyboard & screen, by pressing alt then bar2 (above red button). Locks immediately and lets media player keep playing or phone call to continue (prevents dialing of buttons with your cheek) :)

Close all apps button on drop down task manager freezes up my phone. Use alt n. Closes all running apps.

Drop down task manager is covered up by an X by an open app so you can't access it. alt q to see a d-pad friendly task manager like alt-tab function on pc or alt q to open up finger friendly "task manager" in settings/system folder.

copy, use alt c

paste use alt v

cut, use alt x

PQZ enables you to program all keyboard hardware buttons to apps, settings, in your phone.

I only use 4 tabs on the bottom: system. program., settings, and text.

see attached for detailed instructions & cab file. Install the PRO version.: http://discussion.treocentral.com/1224511-post110.html

Using the file button to link your program hardly works. You can

1) location and name of exe (eg. \windows\iexplorer.exe)

2) location of the shortcut .lnk (\windows\start menu\programs\skyfire.lnk)

3) most complicated is location with parameter (which can be found in the shortcut .lnk's properties using Total Commander)

a)image pqz2- To Lock screen and keyboard \program files\pqzII\vjdevicelock.exe with parameter of displayoff)

b) image pqz5- Op Mini \program files\opera mini\jbed.exe with parameter -run s0_

I will attach my settings on next post.
