thats an interesting radio number, when did you get this?
and where from?

I've not flashed this (mainly 'cos it's all 404 lang files) but there are some newer files in there than the stock european roms, although the build isn't much newer.
first up
Opera is 2532
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=WBK4A9UR
theres a new version of media panel as well, although I can't find the version number of the old one.
this one is mxp r19 mr1 rc2 32367
theres a different version of panelmanager, seems a bit quicker will try and cab it up..
here's the LRK dump
Code:
ROM: 1.03.941.7
SYS: 5.2.19608.1260

do you know if this ROM support chinese?

is this opera optimized for the X1? or is it only an other custom rom? with an newer opera inside

i dont think this is a custom rom

i tested the opera build and you are right it seems to be an X1 build, so i let it on my X1 now, cant find an big difference with that build, the only thing it loads faster which is also great but an zoombar would be nice.

I've not tried the opera yet, been testing other things, what does the user agent string say in that build?

in case anyone wants to try it, extract the files to /program files/panelmanager
Make sure that panelmanager isn't running first, (use fdcsoft taskmanager to kill it)
dumped ontop of itje's fantastic 2.2 rom this new version absolutely flies for me, but it has hung once or twice (changing options in the se panel casues it I think).
here's the newer media panel as well
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6TVS33GB

What I'm really curious about is the new opera, does it have the zoom bar, while being optimized for X1!?

For me, I am interested in MxpFont.mxf under the new panel manager since it could be the solution to display Asian characters in Media panal. Too bad I don't have my X1 w/ me to test.....

Hmmm.. this newly build opera still has no zoom function,
and still it seems to be not able to support Chinese letters in certain websites (eg:cnbeta.com)
(I have got Chinese fonts installed[RickyMSYH6.0Flo, form windows7], and it has no problem displaying Chinese in google.com, it’s because of some encoding format?)

I could be wrong but TW version is traditional Chinese, while cnbeta.com uses simplified Chinese. Not sure if traditional Chinese version can view simplified Chinese fonts.

Hi Jack, I was wondering if it's possible to make an English-based rom to display Chinese characters (but system font remains as English) natively using files from this Chinese ROM without the CE-star files? Thanks.

For English based rom to display other languages (Jpn,CHT, CHS ...etc), you basically need to change 2 files.
1. Wince.nls which support the target language. (WWE base one is only 300k while CHT/CHS is ~ 1mb)
2. Font that support the target language. WWE base is normally is just couple hundreds k, but CHT/CHS base vary from 3mb to 13mb.
The Mxp font I am talking about in this thread is solely for MediaPanel.

Thanks for the info.
I will flash it and grab those files and the mxpfont file.
In regards to the Media Panel, suppose we use that mxpfont.mxf from this ROM, do we still need to add Chinese support to the system first or will the mxpfont display Chinese w/o any system modification? Thanks.
btw what happened to your X1?
EDIT: Used xperia rom kitchen to extract the OS... found the mxp cab file, which is 9.01MB. Inside the cab there's a a 0MxpFont.008 file which is 6.79MB!
EDIT 2: Woohoo I just installed that MxP cab file and the Chinese word (unicode) in the mp3 show up all fine on my x1a w/ x1a ROM! The interface remains in English, nice! No need to flash the ROM

when you have a chance to test it please let us know the result.... I want to display chinese on the media panel too (too bad I dunno what to do to test it... just replace the file on the phone )

it's a pity the camera doesn't have a 409 mui file with it, as this version looks really good!
most of the settings are messed up but it looks like there are settings for uploading and things such as twilight. edit scrap that last bit, it's a text error..
Image quality is much improved I think, so back up (rename) your xperiacamera.dll in /program files/xperiacamera
and try this..

New Rom 1.40 on FTP (Baked 1.40.110 & Radio 1.12)

I recently discovered that there is now a file in the Uploads/Blueangel/ directory of the xda-developers FTP named BA_1.40_radio_1.20_untested_extrom.rar
The file (and the contents extracted) can now be found here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Updates/BA_1.40_radio_1.20_untested_extrom
(EDIT MDAIIIUser: Moved file and corrected link)
This is a Generic 1.40 Rom with cabs from 1.40.110 Extended Rom.
I would like to thank whoever put this file up.
Note that the extrom folder in the archive contains some cabs that would not be included in a standard extended rom (eg SPB GPRS Monitor, the Extended Rom unlocker, etc), as well as some updated HTC cabs, so it is a requirement to cook your Extended rom yourself.
The cabs not natively a part of the 1.40.110 Extended Rom are:
AudioPatch_Media.CAB
CprogHook.WM2003_2577.CAB
dsp_en.cab
GPRSMonitor_2.20_WWE_BA_20041011.sa.CAB
TotalCmd.arm.CAB
xda-developers_Unlocker.CAB
Examples of HTC Extended Rom Upgrades found in this archive:
Old Album: 2.51 Build 16894
New Album: 2.51 Build 18454
Old 1.20 Photo Contacts: 1.20 Build 17957
New Photo Contacts: 1.20 Build 19167
The new Album now opens Photo Contacts 1.20 with the assign to contact command, where it previously did not.
The radio rom included in the archive is 1.12, it seems to be MDAIIIUser's 1.12 Type I Radio Rom.
The 1.40 nk.nbf is seemingly Type I: it will work with the old xda3nbftool.
This rom has Windows Media Player 10, and it seems to be a bit better on the battery. Mamaich (in a post below) has already found some issues, however. (Typical)
UPDATE:
The MMS cab file (CAB-ArcsoftMMS-20022-Magician-Generic-ENU-08Mar05.cab) included in this update causes the hardware phone end button to lock up many people's blue angels during a call. It is highly recommended that you do not use this new cab, and install the older version instead, accessable here:
ftp://xda:[email protected] Media Messaging/MMS_2.0.0.16_BA_1123.CAB
Just flashed the NK.NBF (CE ROM) portion on my PDA2k.
Boots up fine as 1.40.00 WWE on diagnostics screen.
Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, version 4.21.1088 (Build 15045.2.6.0).
Device Information page shows:
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Windows Media Player 10.0 build 15045.
Camera applet integrated in ROM, version 2.21 (build 19307)
Broadcom Bluetooth 1.0.0 build 3900, same versions across all Bluetooth files.
Single "G" icon.
All seems well.
Now, I'm going to piece back the Extended ROM with my customizations and get it going.
This ROM has several minor problems. For example ringer.wma sounds ugly, backlight is maximal after you leave camera app, but it seems that this ROM drains battery a bit less then previous versions, even with 1.12 radio ROM.
To fix camera you can replace camera.exe with a version taken from old ROM, I use EXE from 1.31
And this ROM supports 2 different camera chips: ADCM2650 (old, my device has it) and OV7660. So maybe it is designed for new BAs with an improved camera. Though both chips are limited at 640x480.
Album_BlueAngelAKU26_Generic_WWE_RC20.CAB, Album application
AudioPatch_Media.CAB, changes audio priority to 80
BA_OEM_PA_Remove_WiFi_Logo.sa.CAB, remove extraneous Wi-Fi logo from top status bar
BA_Version_140.CAB, embeds version number for Device Information applet
Broadcom-Corporation-BT-PPC-AV-Upgrade.cab, apparently upgrades Bluetooth stack
Button9.CAB, programs extra button on slide-out keyboard
CAB-ArcsoftMMS-20022-Magician-Generic-ENU-08Mar05.cab, MMS add-on for Messaging applet
Caller_ID_BlueAngelAKU26_Generic_WWE_RC20.CAB, IA Caller ID
CprogHook.WM2003_2577.CAB, related to Phone applet (?)
CV2.41.386_wwe.CAB, ClearVue PowerPoint and PDF Viewer
Default_JMM101257_WWE_1004.CAB, Java Midlet Manager
dsp_en.cab, "Bass & Trable [sic]" (?) (likely customized)
GPRSMonitor_2.20_WWE_BA_20041011.sa.CAB, GPRS monitor
KSE_Fax_v2.09_BA_WWE_0720_unremovable.CAB, KSE Fax for CSD
MIDI561.sa.CAB, MIDI ringtone support
SetDefaultSMS.CAB, default to SMS in Inbox
TotalCmd.arm.CAB, Total Commander (likely customized)
VideoMMSB12_BA.sa.CAB, Video MMS applet
xda-developers_Unlocker.CAB, Extended ROM tools (likely customized)
So what improvements is this rom supposed to have?
(I've installed it now)
mamaich, how can you tell what camera chip a BA has?
Broadcom-Corporation-BT-PPC-AV-Upgrade.cab - adds HID and high quality audio BT profiles
CprogHook.WM2003_2577.CAB - my program, adds "contacts" button to dialer, it is not the latest build
dsp_en.cab - adds "bass&treble" customization, it works on BA and Magician devices
I don't know what are the improvements in this ROM, except that it should be more stable (because it has a newer kernel build with MS patches integrated), it has a built-in 3900 BT, so you don't need to install it and lose about 1Mb of storage space, has WMP10, and this ROM is produced by HTC (or MS) and not created from other ROMs parts like I did with 1.33.51 ROM.
I have not tested the sound quality over BT headset, maybe it is improved.

A quick Question, if I install the radio and rom, does it clear out extended rom as part of the upgrade, or do I have to do that manually first, so that it doesnt restore all my old 1.2 cabs
Click to expand...

It does not touch your extended rom. I would recommend cooking your rom first, then installing the upgrade.
Thanks, mamaich for your answers.
could someone be kind enough to advise
I have tried to read through pages and pages of threads to sort out my problem....
I have been helping pass on the knowledge I have learned from you guys to others when I see them ask... and understand how it must frustrate when people ask already answered questions..
BUT.. I cannot find the answers and I am sure the answer will help many people....
I have downloaded this ROM and would dearly like to use it. I have however a number of questions if I may..:
1) I like what I see in the extended rom on this download can I just use it.. if so how and can you see any problems?
2) I cannot seem to use the rom as it sais wrong country error. I have read may threads and have downloaded xda3nbftool as described by them but cant seem to understand how to fix the file for my country code.. I have the information and this is as follows.....
Model = Ph20B
Minor version =OB
Language code = WWE
Minor = R
Operator code = O2_001
Rom version =1.31.00
Minor = 00
Extended Rom version = 1.31.139 WWE
Radio version = 1.12.00
Please help guys I am sure there will be many people struggling as I am.
thanks in advance
Stay happy
Magpie2000k
magpie2000k, I do not recommend using the current extended rom. Some of the cabs are retail software, and unless you are willing to pay for them, you will be installing time-expiring trials. One of the included cabs is even corrupted. That doesn't even take into account that carrier customization is missing, among other things. I would recommend taking the time to understand how to cook your rom properly and then make your own rom using some of the cabs included so that it properly fits your needs.
As for installing the CE Rom upgrade, I can be of help to you for that. First, since you already have the 1.12 Rom installed, remove the radio_.nbf file that is included in the archive, so that it doesn't unnecessarily upgrade again.
OK, now extract the attached rar file and put them in the same folder as the upgrade, then run fix.bat. Then run BAUpgradeUT.exe and voila.
One again, however, I stress that you should cook your rom before doing this.
Thanks
You are a star.. I take it using the fix bat you created for me the change from my details.... very kind of you..
I have tried to cook the rom. have read and thought I understood all of what was on wiki I have read every page, but when I do what I think it sais it doesnt work.. for instance I want to put the Audio patch enclosed in the supplied extended rom and it doesnt happen when I try and change the config text file it wont save it.. I have unlocked extended rom etc etc etc..
I feel that when I eventualy learn I will write a very very simple version of how to do it and put it up as reference to all...
If you can help in any way on that I would greatly appreciate it..
To all that dont know THE LASTONE is a star
stay happy
Once again thanks

The ugly sound of ringer.wma is caused by the new album application. I tried installing another Album version (older) and the sound of ringer.wma is different! So, maybe they think that this sound as we hear it is more beautiful????
Funny that the Album messes with .wma files...strange, but funny.
But oh well, we all know how funny the BA can behave sometimes...
Jep, I really don't get it right, but it seems to do with any of the dll's installed. Something about that, but why??? Eat me.....
By the way, Happygoat and others. Today I talked to the dealer right here in the Netherlands and the told me they would send me the upgrade on CD to me tomorrow or monday. They confirmed that the version was
ROM1.40
Radio1.12
Ext ROM 1.40.110
Hope I will receive it soon!
That's good. I guess we can use it to ensure we have all the proper extended rom stuff.
Thanks, j_metselaars.
As allready mentioned, there are some minor probs with a few applications in this Extended_ROM.
The most annoying bug is the camera. When used, it sets to the highest brightness, and doesn't set back to your default brightness after use. I cooked the FixCamera_18157.sa into my Extended_ROM, it sets the camera-app back to the build 2.21B18157 from the 1.33.51-Mamaich-ROM, but it works allright.
Remember, when cooking, that the CprogHook.WM2003_2577.CAB (by Mamaich) and the AudioPatch_Media.CAB will need you to tap away the "This was build for a previous ...". Don't disable your touchscreen in the case you will be using one of these programs (= don't execute the "EXEC:\Extended_ROM\TPDisable.exe" in your 'Config.txt' hidden in your Extended_ROM).

Helmi CF2 by baniaczek vs R4 - xplode - Wich is the best Rom now?

Comparison between Helmi_BA_WM2k5_AKU3.5_v1.4.CF2 by baniaczek and BA WM5 AKU3.5 R4 - xplode.
I would want to upgrade my Blue Angel. which of the two it is the best one? I would want to have stability with Bluetooth and WiFi to use with GPS e surf in the web. You excuse me for my bad English…
Don't compare them now. Wait two days - wait for bug fix release.
Today - use xplode.
try both
for u to find out.
Now I see another upgrade: R4 Lazy Release
xplode R5 seems on the way too!
Hmm Banizczek, I knew bug_fix release coming in 2 days, I can't wait to see what else is fixed/enhanced.
Your hard work is VERY appreciated.
Hopefully the BA_Goodies will be included in it (psShutXP, Softkey, RunningPrograms, TaskMgr) + Mail_Fix + SmartDial.

You have convinced to me, you could say the procedure to me of installation of the Rom Xplode R4? I have read that I must set up something on the telephone operator
there is nor R5 on the way, i am still seeking ways to include .NET CF 2 SP2 inside but have no space left, it will be easy for baniaczek to include it because he already has .NET CF 2 SP1
and i think that there is no best WM5 rom, because they all are hacked to work on BA, they are not created specially for the device, thats why there are some known bugs which can not be fixed
afterall baniaczek edition of helmi's rom looks really promissing, so wait for the next release
about my roms, the lazy release does not need setting operator, so the upgrade procedure will be exactly the same as in any other wm5 rom
also i will post a kitchen to my R4 rom, but now i am configuring it, it is based on the newest Bepe's rom kitchen for Hermes (but of course it will be for BA) and it is a lot more easyer to build with it, you can choose which components you want and customize your roms better. For example you can create rom without office apps, or media player, or without any software which is included by default. But i am still working on it.

What about selective UPXing of dlls and exes? Yeah, some UPXed stuff might render it not working, it is a tedious process of UPXing stuff one by one, putting it on the ROM and then, if it works, flash a rom with them.

could I user this kitchen to get rid of camera support?
A lot of things are already UPXed (in helmi's ROM, xplode's ROM - probably too).
And there is still not enough room. In my ROM, for example - about 20 free sector, 512 byte each. UPX is not revolution itself - IMGFS files are compressed gives some compression itself, so UPXing small files gives no impact results.
net.cf dll's are very large, but cann't be UPXed - the are signed, so UPX skips signed files.
It is very hard to save even 1MB of ROM. For that reason I've decide to remove some things (MSN, transcriber) from ROM.
OKAY

Personally, I have no use for powerpoint mobile. Actually I have never read a single Office document in my BA. all 3 apps could go EXTROM IMO. but maybe Word and excel are used by some, maybe they need to stay. Powerpoint mobile is the biggest of teh 3 exes I believe, at least this one could go EXTROM.
gdiplus.dll is not upxed, I copied it to my windows machine and it compresed to 36.78 original size. Sure, the space savings is not as big on IMGFS, but still...
some time ago I tried compressing some files, I believe gwes.exe is compressible too, and it's big. maybe you could check if it's already upxed...

I agree with BJ. All these 3 apps can go to EXTROM, eventhough I still use word and excel rarely though.
What about calculator? I believe most people would install a better version calculator. i know calculator program doesnt eat up a lot of ram, but it is still something...
And, just out of curiosity, what are the most used input method? I always use Block Recognizer. i believe people would only use 1 fav, however maybe Keyboard has to be left out as it is - just in case your friend/partner want to borrow ur phone for a quick sms or something, and they dont know how to use block/letter recognizer. Maybe it is a good idea to have block recognizer & letter recognizer to be excluded as EXTROM, just like what Baniaczek has done with Transcriber (This is very neat since it improves the time to change input method).
Btw, any news on bluetooth random wakeup issue?
Cheers

And, just out of curiosity, what are the most used input method? I always use Block Recognizer. i believe people would only use 1 fav, however maybe Keyboard has to be left out as it is - just in case your friend/partner want to borrow ur phone for a quick sms or something, and they dont know how to use block/letter recognizer. Maybe it is a good idea to have block recognizer & letter recognizer to be excluded as EXTROM, just like what Baniaczek has done with Transcriber (This is very neat since it improves the time to change input method).

Keyboard, block recognizer, letter recognizer - all of them are bundled in single dll

WM 6.5 Native Kernel/nk.exe/xip.bin for Kovsky

Hi friends!
I think the topic pretty much says it all;
This is a native WM 6.5 Kovsky OEMXIPKernel/xip.bin/nk.exe - aware of the new Slot 60/Slot 61 Module virtual memory layout - what does this mean for you as a chef?
Now you don't have to recmod any modules in \SYS anymore, to port over WM 6.5! And you have 64mb free to convert more files to modules!
But you will need to use a relocation tool that is aware of the new memory layout;
Ervius Visual Kitchen + Bepe's New Kitchen do this with the "Real WM 6.5 AKU" checkbox
There's also a build of "WMReloc" 2.0 floating around that may support this, that would be compatible with the "old style" kitchen (buildos + g'reloc, it would replace g'reloc)

nice!!! thnx i have been waiting for this for a while now!!! thnx

can someone explain what this means to the layman please? you guys seem very excited about this
does that mean we should be excited about it as well? what are the benefits etc plesase
integrate to visual kitchen for kovsky
now have "real" wm6.5 on my device.
Big thanks Br.
Don't seem to be able to change the date with xipporterex in visualkitchen, when I press "Find Date/Version on \ROM\Xip\" is gives the following (see attached image).
So I'm not able to change the year since it is not loaded from ROM.
Anyone knows how to fix?
Very interested this. But not really sure if I understand what it is. Can someone correct me if I'm wrong. This is an ROM folder for the xperia? Not an Ported one but a real one right?
@Lokatho:
This is a common problem with XIPPorterEx and newer nk.exe - the method it uses to figure out which string is the version string does not work properly - if you change those incorrect values it's likely something will break.
Instead - use a hex editor, search for your version string - find it, and change it in the hex editor
This will work fine
The issue is with XIPPorterEx's algortihm - maybe you can report it to ervius, and he'll fix it up
very nice
thank you very much
not really sure what this is. but will it somehow bridge the big performance issue with x1 and the HD or TD2 (almost same specs but noticeably faster perormance)?
Does anyone still have this file? The link no longer works. Thanks.

New Video Drivers:can some1 make a cab?

Hi to all,
reading the post about the port of Sense 2.5.2012 by Amarullz, i've aknowledged from Captain_Throwback that Topaz_S2 video drivers seems to be the best available option to improve our Raphael's performance:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5727490&postcount=527
He provided also a .zip with these drivers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5727643&postcount=529
I (and i think a lot of other members) want to try these drivers, so we need to package them into a .cab: is there someone that can provide our community a .cab with these drivers?
Thank you everyone trying to do this.
Ok i have RecMod to .dll and added the REG not sure if works as i'm power cycling phone.
Do not install if using a stock ROM

EDIT:
I have tryed these drivers and sliding through tab now is really smoother, as sliding down the hometab and between cookie's pages.
I want to hear other opinions, because i think they deserve to be cooked in roms!!!

That's cool
Just installed via .cab going to need more time to see if i'm suffering placebo effect also would rather remove NeoS2007 driver set 3 from kitchen and see results.
But seems smother also a little bit snappier on TF3D 2.1 "non sense" page load.
I'll update post after cooked in
Unfortunately with my standard KPN factory ROM the Touch Pro freezed upon reboot. With the end result being a Hard-reset. Likely it is required to security unlock your device given that these are not Raphael drivers.

Probably you need to HardSPL before flashing them...
On custom ROM they works perfectly.
One note: Captain_Throwback and NRGZ28 ROMs for sure have these drivers cooked in, so if you use one of their ROM you don't need to install them again.
Works fine for me on NRG Leo 21892 ROM. It is hard to judge, but it does seem to be a bit snappier with the new drivers.
And what about video performance ? Anybody measured the speed of those drivers vs the "old" ones ?

Not sure how to read it as slightly lower on 2 but way higher on 1.
I never really trust tests as so many variables you never get the same result twice Also not enough to go on since opengl isn't only effected by drivers.

been testing for about 3 hours.....SBP MS seems snappier
Today managed to get testing via cooking:
Placed links as big screenshots.
Topaz Left - Neo Right

CorePlayer : http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4042/4455559452_6b2d5ddcb2_o.png
This was a very fair test flash settle OpenGL then CorePlayer on both.
Yet as i previously said i can't go fully on benchmarks as not only OpenGL to take into account with the drivers.
Topaz seems snappier but is lower in results.
Just thought may be interesting and had a boring Monday

Thanks for sharing. The way folks seem to be migrating to the S2 drivers, you would think the improvement was convincing, yet these benchmarks indicate otherwise...

Thanks to Rastamans tips, I'll continue developing on this ROM.
I'm right now testing this software to be built in later:
- Opera 10 (and remove Opera 9.7.x)
- TCPMP player
- CHT Home Tab 2.0.0 Bèta HVGA
I'm thinking about dropping WWE, because I've received no reaction on the WWE.

Hi, first I really have to do a lot of reading about Roms etc I have just started using my Mini. So sorry if I have some newbie questions .
I was wondering would it be nice to make a version without the HTC Sense and all integrated apps? Its nicer to make a cab directory through which you can install all external cabs from the external memory card. It also makes it easier to update programs like Opera without having duplicate files.
Is CHT Home Tab relying on HTC Sense?
Secondly, the WWE version, is the only difference the language pack?
Some additions for a possible new rom. I would really like a Rom without all the 'useless' apps, like twitter, facebook etc.
A Rom which is speed an battery power optimized .
These are only things I was thinking about, of course I understand that this is difficult to implement.
If I drop Sense, I drop a lot of functionality of the HTC mini. Sense is more than only the plugin in the home screen. That's why I don't like to remove it.
The WWE version is just an English version instead of a Dutch one.
I don't know how I can make a Cab directory yet
Facebook is already removed out of my ROM
And last but not least, CHT really needs HTC Sense, because it is an integrated tab.
Hope this helps
i can see why you can't just remove sense, but is it possible to exclude a few parts of it?
I'm using spb mobile shell (much better and faster than sense and even cht) which would be perfect on top of a standard winmo. However a lot of settings and apps are depending on sense, so it'll come down to finding the right balance I guess

Indeed but if you don't like Sense and just want to use SPB Mobile Shell, go to Settings tab in Manila => Menu => More => Home screen => Items => Deactivate HTC Sense.
PS: Working hard on a new version of this ROM. Takes a little longer than expected as I messed up version 1.08 and had to restart all over again

Hmm, indeed, when you download the file and save it, it loses it's extension. So you should add ".zip" at the end of the file. Then you have a zip-file, and you can unpack it. There would be an NBH file and a SSPL.EXE file
thanks Matt........thanks for the reply.........i have a vodafone branded rom so can I flash it directly with this rom............
yes i know, that's exactly what i've been doing since a few weeks after i got my mini
What I meant was could you disable and exclude something like the messaging app so it won't interfere with the standard wm messaging app?
Texting is really becoming a pain in the ass (not receiving or sending messages randomly) and it's making me want to get another phone instead...
And i really like my mini
