ROM Build 21867 - October 8th, 2009, 10:00 am

After flashing, let it go all the way to Home Screen and then soft-reset

Not to be a nag or anything, but over 5700 views with 20 "Excellent" votes and only five guys donated?

Is my ROM really not worth a single buck donation?

If I were to give you this at a bar, you'd buy me a cup of coffee or something, for sure. Try not to only come around here, get the donwload link and leave. That kind of sucks. It's kind of like stiffing someone.

Question: What is this ROM?

Answer: This is basically a Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM for Iolite based on 1.11.707.1 English ROM with ALL HTC Mega packages plus NaviPanel and Footprints from Iolite.

Download the ROM by clicking here (MegaShares link) or here (Rapidshare link).

Useful software for your Iolite here.

If you want to backup your Stock ROM before flashing this one, you can download the attachment in this very post, which was provided by the great mirko.prinz and figure out how to dump it. It's really quite easy. Get the attachment HERE too.

NOTE:

ROM will take its time installing, 'cause it is so compressed and is unpacking everything. It will seem like it has hanged, but it has not. Let it go all the way through, have some patience. 10 minutes will be more than enough.

1 - For those who want the oldest version (dated October 1st), that still had a few bugs, described 'till post #63, you can get it here.

2 - Download the ROM dated October 2nd, which had build number 21859 and still a few bugs described 'till post #102 by clicking here.

3 - For those that want the ROM that ONLY HAD 1 BUG (Google Maps), you can get it here and the .cab to fix the Google Maps issue here.

4 - For those that want the ROM build 21864 dated October 5th and had no Windows Update shortcut and no Bing Search widget, you can get it here.

Note that I only uploaded ROMs again because so many people asked me to and did not deserve to be withdrawn of ROMs for their devices. But if by any chance I feel that any "rookie" is disdaining my work, I will remove the ROM links for indefinite periods of time.

Known bugs:

NONE so far.

Vote. And donate too.
