[BETA] WM6.1 Clean Developer Edition Revision 1.1 - Shadow ROM Development

After long last, I've finally updated the WM6.1 Clean Developer Edition and have fixed up almost all the problems you guys had with the original.
Changes from original 1.0 version:
Portrait Camera now working
MMS 4.0 is included with basic MMS settings
Custom splash screen!
Some other bugs I can't remember...
User Customization 2.0 - You'll really like this if you have a microSD card!
Installation:
Installation is now completely automated. If you are currently running the official T-Mobile ROM, please run the CID Unlocker.exe that is included.
Once you are CID Unlocked, run the Windows Mobile 6.1.exe program.
Done!
If at any time you want to go back to the T-Mobile ROM because of an error flashing or whatever, you will need to turn your phone on in bootloader mode. To do this, hold down the camera button and then press and release the power button while still holding the camera button down. Your phone should go to a screen with red,green, and blue bars. Plug it in to your computer now and run the T-Mobile Update from their site.

works great so far! thanks again for the updates

Beautiful, I love for your work .

did you add rickwyatt fix for the interface
edit
after trying to download this 10 times already im kinda pist
upload it somwhare else it stops like half way

huh?
okay i must first apologize for my ignorance, as i am very new to this. first what is "CID unlocked"? Also, are there still bugs being worked out of this rom? i previously had a dash ( HTC Excalibur ) and used a 6.1 rom from an xda member and really liked it. T-mobile has not issued a release date for wm 6.1 and frankly i am sick of waiting! will this rom work the same as the previous rom i used for my dash? thank you ahead of time for any answers and help you may be able to provide me with.

Everything works perfect! The only thing I have not tried is mms but I don't mms often.
Thank you for all your hard work!

Noted BUGS
#####
#BUGS
#####
1.) To upgrade from Dev 1.0 to 1.1, I for some reason had to cid unlock. For some reason, every time I tried to flash the Juno, I kept getting an invalid certificate message.
2.) Microsoft's Getting Started App is missing.
3.) After LiveSearch is installed, when a user tries to exit the application they would encounter a missing resource error. (Note: This never occured in the 1.0 version. I'm currently googeling for a solution).
-----
That's all I could find. Otherwise, great ROM. I've noticed it works a bit faster then the 1.0 Rom, what changes did you make?

I also upgraded for dev1.0 to 1.1 and did not have to cid unlock the exe worked great
live search I have no problems with and get no error win exiting
getting started is missing and looked in the windows folder I did not see it there so I think he removed it but who needs it I did have a died shortcut in the all programs for it but after adding more programs to it it is gone
the battery on the settings slide still needs to be edited in the reg to open
still have to try User Customization
but all and all works great

hopefuly need4speed can make a cab to fix these bugs brcouse im kinda sick of flashing my phone

im also waiting for a mirror

ahhh victory
I had some bugs that didnt bother me so much on 1.0, so I am excited for an update.
And I will never get sick of flashing my phone MU HA HA HAhahaha!
When I have it up and running I will post notes of usage ND4, Thank you so much for this.

Okay, I'll reflash my phone, and see if i have any problems.

Problem with install
Hi All
I have tried several times to follow the steps to upgrade to this Windows Mobile 6.1 using ND4SPD's file from both download sites. After running the unlock procedure, when I start the Windows Mobile 6.1.exe installation proceeds to just after the status bar comes up on the phone, Then, I get an error that the image file is corrupted. The phone reboots back to Windows Mobile 6 Standard.
What could the problem be?
Tim

What exactly does user customization 2.0 do?

Dose your phone turn white after running CIDunlocker.exe? Also u have to remove storage card and restart phone before anything.

This rom works in gene p3401?

I just tried without the memory card.
Yes it turns white. The unlock util reports success.
I reboot the phone, start the update util, the screen gets red green and blue bars.
At 2%, the update util shuts down with:
"ERROR [270]: Update Error"
"The image file is corrupted. Please check your update utility."
The phone then reboots.
So, what do you think ?
Tim

@tech_hardman: this will NOT run on the gene. It is specifically meant for the htc juno. If you try it, it might brick your phone.
@guitarkid6920: UC 2.0 basically allows you to have all of your settings, programs, etc installed automatically after the rom is installed so you don't have to work on it every time you flash a new rom.
@timtillman: Make sure that after your phone gets the app unlock that your phone restarts. Physically disconnect from your computer and wait for it to restart after the app unlock. It should work.

Perfect Timing!
Hi Faria,
Perfect timing to release this new beta rom just for the weekend. I'll be playing around with this ROM the coming weekend.
If you have some time, can you explain why the installation of this ROM has some manual actions like executing am autorun.exe from the My Documents folder.
I'll keep you informed about my results with this ROM.
Kind regards,
Nico Dekker

Great work. I'll download this rom today and test it.
I'll keep you informed about my results with this ROM and my bluetooth stereo
Just installed the new release. Very cool startup screens. Installation went flawlessly (install rom, run autorun.exe, run operator config). Paired my Plantronics 590 Stereo Headset and I'm now listening to music in strereo! Thanks for resolving this!
Post more as I try it out.
Thanks!!

sure,
due to this rom has the security desabled by default ,for some weird reason this autorun file does not work with comands from the extended rom.
but im trying to get rid of the auto run for good.
i does work if the rom has security enabled ,but then when it finishes installation it turns the rom security on by itself!!!!
i have allredy send this bug to the develpors of the autorun file.they are investigating.
plus i moved the autorun file from the extended rom because some testers could not run it in the last beta.
G3 device
Faria,
can I put this ROM to a G3 device ( IPL 2.26 SP 2.26, Molski 30 Mb ROM )
Thanks

it is safe since the rom has no bootloader integrated.but i dont know if u are able to install.since people with g4 have trouble installing 3.2. roms.
most liklely because is cid locked.
u can unlock cid in a g4 at imeicheck uk or something like that.
nevertheless a would keep an original rom from your carrier for recovery purposes or make an sd backup.

Working more with the ROM....
The operator config doesn't seem to be working for me. I did do the autorun.exe first and then ran it. At the end, it rebooted. I soft-reset and re-ran the operator file (USA_Cingular), and still don't see the definitions in the settings as I did with the last ROM release.
Ideas?

Another item....
Registry Wizard doesn't seem to run: "Am unexpected error has occurred in Registry Wizard.exe." Related to the operator config?
Thanks!
Can't wait to test it!
After all the positive feedback I read from the initial testers, can't wait to test it myself.
Anyway Faria, thank you very much for investing the time and energy in these kind of initiatives!
Best regards,
Brian.

Hi,
Can I install in this rom the Ringo software. In the last one it made wizard crash, only with one hard-reset I solved that problem.
Thanks and great work
Just installed the version
So far so good. Works well. Installation took less than 10 minutes, and only got stuck at 99% for about 2 minutes.
One small thing that looks like a bug is when I try to close the task manager, it won't let me and then I have another task manager in the icons in the bottom of the screen. Is this a real problem or am I using it in the wrong way?
Download, and flash went along perfect. Followed directions exactly. After Extended Rom was installed, and device reset, got the error message "Cannot execute calnot.exe" Then installed my operator settings (US-Cingular) which evidently didnt work correctly - no big deal. After that soft reset, got the error message "cannot execute repllog.exe" I have since soft reset again, with no errors. Off the start, the only thing I see that I dont like is the new clock in the top right. It is cutting the year digit off. Is there a way to just revert back to the standard time? I have alos noticed the task manager quirk as described in the above post.

the task manager has been descussed in beta 3 that is the way it works.to exit taskmanager go to options/exit,
to remove the clok or date use registry wizard.

upgrade fails

Hello,
I`m trying to get latest lvsw wm6 to the device.
I own the phone since today.
I made the following steps:
Execute ROMUpdateUltility (Hard-SPL)
->Next->Next->Update
From: Image Version 1.16.407.2
to: Image Version 1.20
->Next -> Next
On the phone:
Enterbotloader.exe
"blabla"
YES
On the computer:
ERROR[246]: Device not responding
On the phone:
IPL-SSPL by Des
SPL-1.07.ds
ok,
trying to run ROMUPdateUltility again...
next next next... he shows me the progress bar --> finished! YES!
Rebooting the phone --> same software version as before the update?
trying to update for 2 hours... just to use gps as advertised
please help, i tried the official Update from HTC -> successfull but effects! programs, contacts etc still there, same version number!

I've the same problem [246] upgrading unofficial roms like
GSM_1.41.00.11
and
ROM_ING_WM6_2.27
The only upgrade I make successfully is original
htcp3600-RUU_Trinity_HTC_ITA_1-23-408-2_103_6275_1-38-00-11_108
what's wrong ?
P.S.
I test it using activeSync 4.2 & 4.5
Messiah..... Have you read the very first post in the LVSW ROM thread?
I am NOT having ago, just checking, seems you may have miss-understood.
Grab ALL 3 downloads listed there.
Apply first one, and yes there IS NO real visible change to the phone apart from it has been hard SPL'd
Now apply Second one, will go through the same process BUT the Radio ROM is changed and updated
Now Apply the Third and WM6 is installed
The failure you describe is the computer dropping Activ Sync and then "seeing" the phone in Bootloader mode, which is why it take 2 bites of the first cherry, after that all "should " be ok.
I managed to get mine on the first attempt so it is "Me Proof"[TM] and "Just Works" (c)..... however report back if this hasnt helped
yeah, the process you described tells me that you've loaded hard-spl on your phone.. that's all. No WM6 yet...
I have the same problem.
I have Hard-SPL'ed my Orange M700
Then reboot and reestablish Active Sync
Then I have updated the Radio Rom
Then reboot and reestablish Active Sync
and now it's 1.41.00.11 in settings/system/device information
but when i apply
20070527_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.1.1 it uploads then i power on my device and it's still WM5 ?
What am I doing wrong??
Any help appreciated.
This may be a stupid question but have you SuperCID your device before running the updates?
If you go:
Start -> Settings
System
Device Information
What does it say under Radio version? (Just checks the second step has been completed successfully).
Also when you enter the bootloader what does it say on the screen?

I thought you didn't need to SuperCID the device (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1245390&postcount=70)
My radio Rom shows 1.41.00.11
TBH I don't know. But it can't hurt to try it, I SuperCID mine and it flashes perfectly each and every time.
I'm merely trying to make suggestions that may get a result.
Oh, you didn't tell me what the bootscreen said and what version of Activesync do you have on your PC?
While doing the SuperCID upgrade i was wondering: After flashing any of the ROMs do I reboot or power On manually or wait for the device to reboot itself as the message in the SupoerCID tool suggests:
If radio upgrade went fine, wait until your phone reboots and make sure
ActiveSync is enabled again (you should see green icon in system tray)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Stupid Q: How can i make the boot screen stay long enough so i can write it down?
My ActiveSync is 4.5 on WinXP
Rummage around in Start--> Setting --> device ID, and version and stuff...... they are there and you get the same info as on the boot screen... and it stay on longer ;-)
Sorry if a little vague but away from phone at the moment......... erkkkkkkkk
/me runs off to find it so this may get edited

I didnt Super CID just followed the instructions in LVSW 's first thread, applied each DL in order and "it just works" (c)
Thanks. That's where i got the infroramtion from b4. I just thought it might be different in the boot screen.
I now did the SuperCID unlocking and did the 3 upgrades again. after the 3rd upgrade i still have:
- WM5.1.342 Build 15096.3.0.0
- ROM 1.23.61.5
- Radio 1.41.00.11
Q again: Do I need to wait after the flashing or do i immidiately press power
(that's what i do when it says finish) or do i soft reset? Or what else?
Thanks for your help.
Hmmmmm just got me phone....... dont ask
Right CE OS 5.2.1413 build 17745.0.2.3
ROM 2.0.1.1
Radio 1.41.00.11
Sooooo.......
a) are you using LVSW (just to be sure)
b) have you grabbed the latest version posted on page 1 of the upgrading thread?
c) I let it restart it self after it finished flashing, it then reclibrates the screen etc etc
Also looks like you havent upgraded anything just yet ... follow the instructions to the letter and it "should" be fine
a) yes
b) yes
c) there might be the problem i waited 2 mins ans as it wasn't rebooting i just used the power button. How long should i wait aftr the WM6 install?
I soft reset mine directly after the screen goes black. So that should be fine.
Maybe it has to do with my boot loader:
When i go to bootloader i see:
IPL-0.50
SPL-1.07.0000
then it starts fading quickly. is this normal? I have the same fading effect when i install ste 2 the radio ROM. but i still have the new radio rom on as it displays as 1.41.00.11
I again tried to use the 2.0.1.1 it uploads very quickly (maybe 2min) and then it's still the "orange" screen and WM5 on reboot and i still have all my data.
What a I doing wrong?
No. Mine stays there right up until the upload to the phone starts.
Then I get a grey background with a blue progress bar.
What happens if you run Enterbootloader on the phone. Then connect it to the PC.
Then run the install program on the PC.
The first process didn't work.
You should have:
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
Hmmmmm if all else fails try a hard reset on your phone and see what versions of what you have after that.
Did you use ANY form of unlocking prior to using LVSW rom?
/me suspects this might be casuing issues
The radio rom zoooooomed up to my phone and likewise the WM6
I cannt remember reseting the phone after flashing.... IIRC it just worked as in it finished then re-started and way hey off it went.
Also FWIW I just used the DL's in the thread without bothering with anyother boot loaders etc... ie extract flies in first DL into 1 folders, run them, ditto DL's 2 and 3.

Craps
How long does the flashing take? Mines been running for almost an hour..
Pulled the plug while flashing..
Then it bricked.... But, it was unbricked in the next 5 mins. Have to try flashing all over again.
follow instructions in the How To Upgrade.txt provided in the rom folder.
How to install your new OS for wing, follow this and you cant be wrong: (But im not sure since this is for Wing )
1. Make a full backup, or only the data necessary to you on SD a card or PC via Windows Mobile Device Center, or other
backup programs you might have.
1.b. Either hard reset your device, or flash the official RUU for your device, so that you have a clean base to flash on to.
2. Connect to ActiveSync\Windows Mobile Device Center, and run the connect without syncing the device.
3. Put your device in flightmode,this is done in CommManager. (radio off) If someone call, or sms you during flash, you will have errors.
4. Copy ASerg_Policies.CAB to your device and install it, THEN SOFT RESET, I say again SOFT RESET.
5. Start !UPGRADE_ROM.bat and wait, there will show nothing on your phone display, so dont worry, its normal. AND do not
use your device in any way, to be sure that no errors will happen, wait for the command promt tell you that you have
to hard reset. (If you dont know to soft and/or hard reset, dont bother to run the upgrade untill you have learned how to use your phone.
6. you should now have your new updatet rom.
-If you run into problems, and device is not booting, run the official RUU FROM HTC to restore your phone.
-If You have error during flash, this often happens for unknown reason. you can wait out and proceed, sometimes the update works anyway.
-If it doesnt work, reflash the RUU, and try again.
Beta not usable with dopod c800
Flashed twice and bricked it twice....
At last!!!
I have been connecting here everyday in order to find this post and finally here it is!
downloaded and ready to install.
hi, thank's for your work... already using on mine herald.
i just have a noob question! how the heck do i get the cube (if theres one )?
I must say i like this rom. Fast, and seems stable in the first 15 minutes
I installed it on my Terra this morning, worked like a charm.
I haven't found any bug so far, but it seems you forgot to include HTC audio manager.
thanks..

follow instructions in the How To Upgrade.txt provided in the rom folder.
How to install your new OS for wing, follow this and you cant be wrong: (But im not sure since this is for Wing )
1. Make a full backup, or only the data necessary to you on SD a card or PC via Windows Mobile Device Center, or other
backup programs you might have.
1.b. Either hard reset your device, or flash the official RUU for your device, so that you have a clean base to flash on to.
2. Connect to ActiveSync\Windows Mobile Device Center, and run the connect without syncing the device.
3. Put your device in flightmode,this is done in CommManager. (radio off) If someone call, or sms you during flash, you will have errors.
4. Copy ASerg_Policies.CAB to your device and install it, THEN SOFT RESET, I say again SOFT RESET.
5. Start !UPGRADE_ROM.bat and wait, there will show nothing on your phone display, so dont worry, its normal. AND do not
use your device in any way, to be sure that no errors will happen, wait for the command promt tell you that you have
to hard reset. (If you dont know to soft and/or hard reset, dont bother to run the upgrade untill you have learned how to use your phone.
6. you should now have your new updatet rom.
-If you run into problems, and device is not booting, run the official RUU FROM HTC to restore your phone.
-If You have error during flash, this often happens for unknown reason. you can wait out and proceed, sometimes the update works anyway.
-If it doesnt work, reflash the RUU, and try again.

Flashing to new rom

I'm sorry for this post, because the answer is probelly somewhere on this forum. But I can't find it.
I have my diamond for about a year now and I like to install a custom rom with windows mobile 6.5. But I can't seem to figure out what I need for this.
I already chosen a rom, but I have no idea if it is any good, because there are so many roms out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563245
So my first question, is this rom any good?
Second question, what type of hard SPL do I need, Do I need the normal one that requires roms to be signed or do I need the developers edition?
Third question. Do I need MTTY for this or can I first try it without MTTY?
And the last question, if I don´t like the rom is it easy to install the original rom again or do I need to do something special for that.
I hope you guys can answer my questions so I can start flashing my rom.
Grtz, Eric
EDIT: I tried installing hard-SPL unsigned, but get an error that it can't connected to my phone. But it is connected using windows mobile device center
why do you want to flash a new rom?
ive recenetly done the same, i wanted to flash my rom as the original was tied to vodafone and some of the features like youtube, facebook, and opera wouldnt work as they wanted vodafone connection ( im on virgin mobile).
anyway after much trial and error i in the end found it versy easy.
3 simple steps. first flash your bootloader
i found the best and easiest one was spl olinex version 4.0
u need to softboot to do this ( hold the down volume and switch on phone, have usb cable connected then use the flash util provided with the above.
once thats done you need to flash rom the radio
again the one out there that seems the best to use is version 1.00.25.05 diamondruu radio
again soft reset so you get the try colour screen and run the flash rom update ( takes about 2 mins at most)
finally choose your version of win mobile 6.5 ( i got windows revoluton 7.1 ultra clean edition)
do soft reset again, then run the flash update and again this takes about 5-10 mins for this)
all worked perfectly for me and it was my first try.
though i will be changing it as the revolution is missing some vital aspects i like.
i know its basic but hopeully you can see its not the daunting prospect some people make out though any rom upgrade carries a minot risk i found this to be as easy as 1,2,3
good luck

Because I would like some new features on my phone. Like wm 6.5 or a new version of manilla. It's getting a little boring having the same phone for over a year.
@miramele, thanks for your response. I'll give it a try tomorrow and hope I won't brick my phone.
let us know how you get on, it took me several attempts as each time i was trying while within the phone itself, if you hold the down volume key and power on the phone you get the tri colour screen, in this mode i had 100% success each time.
doing it within the OS with phone on it just stuck at 0%.
And since then i have re flashed it with a diff version of wm 6.5 that i prefer and all is good.
the version i flashed to is the manila 2.1 with the latest touchFLO 3d so ive not even bothered with Spb mobile shell though may add this later.

Thanks for the advice, if I understand correctly I have to get to the tri-color screen and then install hard-spl? But can I connect to my laptop while in this mode?
I'm gone try it tomorrow because I didn't have any time today.
Thanks for all the help, especially miramele.
I made the step and am now running a custom rom without any issues. Many thanks for the help and for pulling me over the line.

[TMOUS][ROM][WWE][Nov.5.2010] UltraLite 370MB - INCLUDES ANDROID - THE EASY WAY!

ANDROID THE EASY WAY
NOW AVAILABLE!​
This Process will NOT be quick, but it’s easy and runs great!
Takes about 1/2 hr to set up the first time. It's an All-In-One Flash - Includes Stripped WM, Android, and Compatible Radio.​
Includes an AWESOME Android build, Desire Sense - BlueTopia v0.6, by cmylxgo.
FAST, STABLE, COOL as Heck! It is installed on top of my Super Ultra Lite ROM.
Booting into Android is controlled by My Android MortScript.​
ROM is based on latest T-Mobile 3.14 with almost everything removed. Not really worth booting into this ROM as it's just used to load Haret to get Android going.​
If you want to Flash this ROM then change the Android build to another, you may by replacing the Android Folders on your SD Card with your desired Build.​
Please read all below before starting.​
Download all files listed:
AutoFlash SuperSport Android BlueTopia 6.exe Grab All 4 Parts (MediaFire Link) Sorry so LARGE!! Only way to include everything. MediaFire allows Multiple downloads at a time. If you have a fast Connection, grab all 4 pieces at once.
Task29 provided by doloop.zip (Attached) If needed
HardSPL3 (Attached) If needed​
Unzip Task 29 and HardSPL3.​
Clean old Android and any Android helper folders OFF SD Card ie: Android, Media, FilesToBeDeleted, etc. For best results, backup your card, then re-format FAT32.​
Be sure your SD Card is re-installed in your HD2.​
Flash HardSPL3: Run HSPL3_PKG.exe, or be sure you’ve already done it in the past. Follow the instructions found HERE if you don’t know how. This will take about 3 mins.
Task29: Run Task29 provided by doloop.exe. This should be done before ANY Flash. If running Windows Vista or 7, you must Right Click and Run as Administrator. Be sure your phone is connected by USB before running and follow the instructions. It’s just like flashing a ROM. When it reaches 95%, press and HOLD the Volume Down button until it reboots into Bootloader Mode (Red, Green, Blue Screen). This will take about 2 mins.
Flash My ROM: Be sure your SD Card is installed in your HD2, then Flash your phone with my ROM. Be sure your phone is connected by USB then enter Bootloader Mode (Red, Green, Blue Screen) by Holding Down the Volume Down button while turning on phone. Run the file "AutoFlash_SuperSport_Android_BlueTopia_6.part1.exe". Follow the Instructions until your phone Reboots. This will take about 7 mins.
Allow windows to start up first time. This will take about 1 mins. DO NOT PRESS YES when prompted if you want to Boot into Android. That will come later. WARNING!!! DO NOT PRESS 'YES' YET! This will cause Android to NOT INSTALL! (If this happens, use the File Explorer to browse to the Windows Directory and Run the Cab "SuperSportAndroidBlueTopia6.cab". Be Sure to install it to your Storage Card, NOT Main Memory. Delete this CAB after installation completes.)
Android will now Silently Install to your SD Card. This will take about 4 minutes. Wait for the XDA UC Service End message and tap OK. YOU MUST WAIT FOR THIS. If it does not come up within about 5 mins, then something might have gone wrong. Flash Task29 again and start the ROM Flash over.
You can now Select Yes to the Window asking if you want to Boot into Android. (Future boots will ask this again. Just select YES to boot Android, or NO to stay in Windows.)
Android will now start up. You will see the Green hTC logo. Allow Android to set up the Data Space. This takes a LONG time! Be VERY Patient. Up to 10 mins the first time (Mine was 8 mins, Future boots after the first time boot quickly). It will sit on HTC logo for a LONG time, then blank screen, then final boot.
Future boots will now give you a prompt to allow Auto Boot into Android, or you can select to go into Windows if you are so inclined. You can also use Android-Ubuntu to change the Auto Boot settings to be quicker or slower, or boot into Windows if you prefer, although, there's not much there.
To boot back into Windows, Remove your SD Card and Reboot. To Flash another ROM, enter Bootloader - Hold down the Volume Down button while powering on your phone.
For my ROM WITH Android, Download above.
For those who just want the WM ROM Without Android Built in, Download Below.
This ROM has the following:
-Free RAM: 373.90MB WOW!!!
-Free Storage: 705.06 WOW
-Very Little left of Windows. It really is not usefull for anything except starting Android.
4 Flavors:
NO Radio NO BootScript - Best for those who already have an Android Compatible Radio and want to use their own Boot Program.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite NO Radio NO BootScript.exe
With Radio NO BootScript - Best for those who still need the Radio, but want to use their own Boot Program.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite w Radio NO BootScript.exe
NO Radio With BootScript - Best for those who have have an Android Compatible Radio but want to use my Simple "Yes/No" BootScript.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite NO Radio w BootScript.exe
With Radio With BootScript - Best for those who need the Radio and Want to use my Simple "Yes/No" BootScript.
AutoFlash SuperSport Android Ready SuperUltraLite w Radio w BootScript.exe
To Do:
Create Cabs of future Android Updates that can easily be installed on top of old builds, or on top of my Android WM ROM.
Looking forward to it
BlueTopia is a nice choice.. Do you think you can post the winmo build?
And have you thought about using UC_NET instead? As you can see the progress bar during setup, might make it easier for some people that arent familiar with UC.. just a thought

I will look into it. Any idea if it can force install to SD Card? That's the trouble I have with XDA_UC, I don't understand it enough to know how to silent install to the SD Card. I'd love to have a progress bar too.
I will post the WinMo build when I have it working properly. There's an issue with the AutoBoot function that I think might be due to the ROM being SO Stripped.

Hmm.. I'm not sure actually, here's the thread for it. Maybe take a look at post 3 (portable commands) in that thread.
Here's a post from him on that topic, from a while ago though (July).
Really Dumb Noob Android Question
I have to use Outlook (corporate environment kind of thing...not Exchange). What is the best way to be able to synch Contacts and Appts. between Outlook and Android?
That is, so far, the only thing holding me back from giving Android a try. And this ROM appears to be a great way to try it out.
Thanks for any advice.
Can you please make a release of JUST the winmo rom? That way we can simply apply whatever android distro we wish to our SD card, and the download is smaller : D

As far as I know, there is not a way to sync using WMDC. It needs to be done using HTC Sync, or using your google account. To use Google, you can set up an email account as an Exchange Account. Set the Server as m.google.com and tell it to sync your email, contacts, and calendar. For some reason, tasks do not work, so don't check them. If you set up Outlook AND your Phone to use the same Google Exchange account, then things will sync wirelessly WITHOUT having to connect to USB. Be aware this will likely use a little more battery if you allow it to sync often.
To use HTC Sync, download it from HERE and install it on your PC. Your phone will need to be set to HTC sync when you connect it to USB.

Yes, when it is working properly, I'll post JUST the WinMo ROM. Currently, it's running just fine, I'm just having trouble getting it to AutoBoot when started.
Ok, I just added to the First Post a link for the WM ONLY ROM. This ROM does NOT include Android.
ROM Specs:
Free Ram - 373.90 MB WOW!!
Free Storage - 705.06 MB WOW
Includes Radio: 2.15.50.14
Download Size: 53.1 MB

Still touching up my All Inclusive Android ROM, Sorry for the Delay.
NOW AVAILABLE!!!
Please see First Post for Details.​
Out of curiousity, is it still possible to run a winmo program since the android os is just an overlay? If so, how?
Also, I tried youtube and the video is horribly choppy. audio is fine but video is stop and go ... stop and go... is this a known issue?
Any soft reset shortcut?
other note: tried running angry birds and it doesnt work.

Actually Android is not overlay on top of Windows. Windows starts haret, then shuts down completely, only leaving Android running. The only way is to reboot, and not boot into Android.
My YouTube is really smooth, but that's over WiFi. Haven't tried over gprs.
No soft reset that I know of. Only holding power button and shutting down.
After trying to run AngryBirds the first time, you must reboot back into Android and run it again. It will run second time around.
PS: one thing I've noticed is that after a couple reboot, things seem to get smoother.
Unfortunately, Android isn't perfect on the HD2 yet, but it's getting better every day...
I had to format the card twice and it started working ... yay
Holding the end button with this android OS gives the option to reboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780525

That brings up a good point. If anyone wants, you can delete the Android off the SD Card and replace it with your favorite flavor. The Boot Script should still work, as long as you place the Android build into the folder Android with CLRCAD.exe and haret.exe in that same Android folder, not a sub folder.
awesome rom thank you,...runs very smoothley and first one where everything has worked!! as soon as funds come in you will be my first donation..
only problem is batterylife life and data speed i live in socal what radio will u reccomend im on tmobil network . and 2 youtube is very choppy unless i use wifi.

Please keep in mind that the Android Build is NOT mine. Please donate to cmylxgo as he is the one who put the Android build together. I cooked the WM ROM, added the Radio, added his Android ROM, and created the BootScript. I just wanted to come up with a way for people to try it that just worked, so I put it all together in one easy to flash package.
Yes, there are still some issues with running Android on WM, but it's slowly getting better. cmylxgo has mentioned a new Android Build coming up shortly. I'll see if I can add it to this thread when it's released.
I've heard about YouTube by a couple of you now. I don't know yet what that is. Not sure if it's My ROM, or the Android Build, but when I find out, I'll try to create a fix.
EDIT: The radio on the first post is the only one I've tried with Android. I'm on ATT, so not sure how that compares to you.
thanks for this simple guide.. *so simple, even a caveman can do it* noob question, how do i restore the phone to factory settings incase I need to send it in?

Hehe, I like that. To revert, you would need to flash the HardSPL back to 2.08 (Use HardSPL 3 and select the 2.08 version), then flash the Stock ROM back on. As far as Android goes, just delete it off the SD Card. My ROM simply copies Android from the ROM to the SD Card and sets up links.
Does the camera work in this one? I really want to ditch WinMo and go to Android, but I want to first be sure everything works. I have read in some other threads that camera support is not working, which seems like it would be a deal breaker for many people.

Yes, it does. That's a deal breaker for me too. I do have occasional data connection problems, but I'm almost always on WiFi, so it has not been a huge deal for me yet. It sounds like cmylxgo is working on the data issue along with other fixes with his Android Build. I will likely update this ROM when that happens. I'll also post instructions for those who do not want to flash the ROM again and just want to update their Android Build.
everything works perfectly, I just flashed it 3 days ago and I'm very pleased so far..... and belive me I've almost tried everything around here.... Thank you Super Sport to put all this togheter.
