NEW! Shadow ROM, Need a Favor - UMA! - Shadow ROM Development

I need someone to find & grab the UMA part or the whole ROM & test it in the older shadow model & report back if it works on t-mo.

I have a shadow II, I can dump the rom for everyone hacking pleasure ... tell me how?
I am quite techi

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=477539 We've been trying to dump the new Shadow ROM on AllShadow.com, but current methods don't work and only a few people have the new Shadow and are willing to try the ROM Dump

1. Download this file. Link below.
2. Upload it to your memory card.
3. Let this run for 10-15 min. Will create a dump.bin file.
4. Download WinRAR. You can download WinRAR from Filehippo.com & Extract the Dump.bin file.
5. Upload to rapidshare.com & report the shortcut to download.
It has always been a mystery if UMA is hardware or software based. By being able to install UMA on the older T-Mobile Shadow we will be able to actually find out the truth. If it is software based then the ROM's created can include the UMA components for the Wing & Dash devices.

Someone has already tried that. Apparantly the new Shadow, like the old, doesn't have a TrueFFS chip.
I've been digging up some other solutions. I'll try them on my old shadow and if they work, I'll post instructions on how to do so for the new shadow.

why dont you try the bkondisk?

I got this rom 6 months ago. the core version is CE OS 5.2.19700
and i am sure it is a shadow II rom.
is anyone can tell me the core version in your new shadow 2009 ?

could you try the bkondisk that hikey mentioned a few posts above on your phone? We could get the official rom then from them instead of a pre-release build.

Here you go:
The OEM package for UMA from the Ce os 5.2.19604.1.1.10 ROM, which is pre-production!
Download

Ok, we'll see what happens here. I copied the bat file over and ran and it successfully installed. I copied all other files into \Windows on my Shadow and running the WLAN Settings from the Comm Manager brings up the menu from the new shadow. I can also go into the \windows folder and run UMAManager.exe which also brings up the new WLAN Settings page. I am not at home at the moment but will be in a few hours and I will test.

OK, now. This should be the right one!
It is a software that automatically signs you into Hot Spots! I guess it's meant for T-Mob hot spots!

Did anyone notice that there is a CAB file in the Windows directory for the UMA software?
I have installed it on my old Shadow, but it does not work. Seems like maybe it needs the drivers for the new Shadow's WiFi? Or the Radio Rom?
What do I know?
UMA_2008_09_16_A
I can up it somewheres....

Already installed the CAB, it installs successfully but the new wifi manager does not work properly. It pretty much renders the wifi useless on the shadow. you can stil go in to \Windows\ and run the old wrlsmanager and use wifi so that is good. but it is looking more and more like this will not work.

new shadow rom
so no new rom then>>>
can we even place da rom from da shadow 2
on a old shadow???
i know it would be cool as h3ll at its a how if it can be done
and uma so just a program thats it>>>
a t-mobile 8820 and a at&t 8820 are da same just diff roms...
so now cames da how???
any one??? any one???
one one from htc, a hacker, programer, ???

ND4SPD is working on the 6.5 port now (I don't blame him, 6.5 looks sweet) but after the testing I did I don't think UMA is going to work on the original Shadow anyway. Plus he was having difficulties getting the install to work and is having similar issue with the 6.5 update. Until someone can get the official ROM off of a Shadow 2009 I think this thread may be dead.

i had one for a couple of days. no current dumping tools by itsutils did anything. tried bkondisk and pdocread. if i can get another one i hope i keep it longer.

Lets hear an update ND4SPD, he put out a bad ass 6.1 rom, that man knows what he's talking about

He's busy studying for his SATs, plus he's tryin to port WM6.5 to the shadow, the latest progress can be found here.

Rom Cooking

I'm quite the newbie when it comes to ROM cooking, quite lucky to have a P4350 so I can mess around a bit w/o worrying about bricking the phone. I was able to flash the t-mobile dump using this method:
xander803 said:
I'll try to detail out exactly what I did. The rom kitchen was used for every single step. The directions provided with the program are not comprehensive but done well enough that you can figure most of it out.
1). Use the extract tool and choose "dump from bin" and dump the wing os bin posted on the first page. This dumped the contents to a directory in xdump.
2). After this "pkgtool" will run to separate out the sys and oem folders.
3). Move the contents of "xdump" (which should be the sys and oem folders and maybe a couple other files) into the "kitchen" folder.
4). Place the XIP folder and Aserg's os.nb, both of which are found in this thread, into the "ROM" folder. Aserg's os.nb will have to be renamed, check for details in the rom kitchen help file.
5). This is the step where cooks can delete/add stuff but I wouldn't recommend it your first time through.
6). Run "Build" and it should automatically create your new os.nb. We don't need to do any of the conversion afterwards because we can just put this os.nb in place of Aserg's os.nb and use his method to flash.
Please read through the rom kitchen's help manual as well as Aserg's help file for flashing the herald and make sure you understand exactly what you have to do. If you don't have an unbranded Herald it may be difficult to recover from a bricked device. I bricked my device several times before getting it but luckily I have an unbranded Herald so I could just flash an official WM5 WWE back on. Lastly, do this at your own risk, this worked for me but may not work for others.

What I wanted to know is what I would have to do to switch the T-Mobile rom with the PdaViet rom in this process of cooking. I have tried various methods, but have had no luck right now. The ROM image I create hangs at the initial bootscreen.
Also on another note, not sure why this is but when I extract the PdaViet rom and then compile it back together using the Pro Kitchen, the new image is always a bit smaller (like I missed something.)
Question: How did you CID unlock your device?
I didn't have to CID Unlock to upgrade.
Well I found out that its normal for the rom size to shrink using the Core Pro Kitchen, this is because of Tadzio's program. What I can't seem to figure out is why I can't flash the new build of the PdaViet rom without it freezing at the first splash screen. At first I thought it was the missing .rgu files found by , but I have found out that those were taken out for a reason, so that cancels out one potential problem.
We just have to wait a little more. Anichillus is trying to creat the Kitchen for the herald as he promised it. But now after exams he is in holiday. But after that he will present a new kitchen. Just wait a little.
And yes - his kitchen compresses the files more than other.
Keep on working and cooking. The Heraldforum needs it really...
I never liked PDAViet roms - so let´s creat own ones...
Thanks
Thanks for the update, and only reason I wanted to use the PdaViet rom is cuz it has the newest build. Guess I'll just work with k0ster's release.
Yeah man, i'll beta test any roms you create, I just paid to have my Wing CID Unlocked and i'm trying out PDAVIET's rom's now.

Be careful. When it get bricked whiel falshing there is NO chance to unbrick with Herlad RUU!!!
Believe me and don´t try it
Hope you will allways have success while flashing with Asergs Method

I thought you couldn't CID unlock the Wing.
^^imei-check. It worked so far. No other wing user has tried, I don't believe, i'm the first guinea pig.
So I just started to cook ROMs for the herald and I have to say it is a long and enduring process, but simple enough that anyone who wants to learn is able to do so.
For anyone else who is interested I am using the Core Pro Kitchen to build the roms, using this rom as my base (very clean-also good rom to load to your phone directly. Doesnt have missing files unlike PdaViet rom when running PkgTool.)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319142
I also found a very useful selection of OEM cab packages that work with the herald for the most part. If they dont a simple edit will do the trick.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319970&highlight=rom+kitchen+guide
Even a newb can cook up a rom using this method so there ain't no excuses.\
Cheers
So by all means all P4350 users start experimenting and cooking up ROMS so that Terra and Wing users have something to look forward to when they have an RUU.

anichillus told me that the artemis version should work.
BUT write an pm to him and he will give you a link to his "Hyper Core Kitchen" the complete new one!!!!!!!!!
Give it a try
im going to try this out again and see if I can cook something up. I tried and actually created a rom be4 but was too scared to try it out. ill see if I can have a release by the end of the week but my computers been acting up. imma try to get the touchFLO working also.
neptune, post your cooked rom up or post some pics. did u do a traditional rom or one with the Touch home plugin and stuff?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=323166
Would you be able to add that into your rom? It's a button free activation of the 3D Cube!
i'm currently cooking a rom using the Artemis kitchen, i'll post up how it goes, main issue for me is trying to make sure i'm putting packages in the right folder. I downloaded a .rar full of pre-mad packages so all I gotta do is drag and drop. i'm using k0ster's rom as a base but would love to use the official wm6 that was just released as a base as its newer and cleaner i'm guessing. we'll see, maybe we'll see some cooked roms from me soon!

It should be better to extract the REAL WM6 rom with nbhextract and then start cooking the rom with the kitchen for Artemis (anichillus Core Kitchen??).
ANd be sure - in about one week there will be a new kitchen from him
But please use the real OS. Not a ported one!!
^Alright, i'll try that tonight. What is the major files that people remove? (Transcriber, etc.)

Cavalier WM6 ROM on the Breeze

Just thought I'd move to a more appropriate thread.
I'm afraid I've made no further progress and, since going back to work, have had little time to experiment.
The status is still that:
1. The Breeze and Cavalier are very similar at the hardware and software layers.
2. It IS possible to unpack the Cavalier ROM and re-flash to the Breeze using Hermes tools and the SSPL in this forum.
3. The real problem apears to be re-packing the XIP files within the ROM to fit the Breeze Memory map.
I haven't got 3 to work

Well, I'm on a week's break again. I sort of hoped that someone would have moved it on but I'm cool to give it a second bash. Hopefully someone has written an explaination on XIP porting since my last break .....
nice nice looks nice
Hi, there... as you maybe read in some other threads i sell my htc touch and get back to mteor...
so also i want to have a wm6 rom on my mteor...
i have done some testing but nothing coming to life...
also the reflashing to take a 2nd shot is very complicated because i have everytime to reflash the orig. 1,34er rom... sspl flashing didn't work for me...
also i read some of the posts about xip remapping... i have get into the xip today in the morning...
but i don't know how to remap the files!? but i hopefully have today (also @work) sometime to do some research...
as i read in the Blue Angles WM6 Developement Thread, it never has been so far that a wm6 rom from another device is working on the to ported device...
but... the cavalier hw is just looking very identically with breezes one...
only thing i found... the samsung processor, since it is the same "partnr." the clock speed is @400mhz, as i read on some pages about the cavalier?!

Hi, there...
i have just extraced the xip parts from the rom now...
so now there a 2 problems...
when using dumpromx to extract i come to the files
when i using xipport i only get some files (eg. boot.rgu) and only folders of the modules (eg. coredll.dll)
with xipport extraction it is possible to reconvert to a xip.bin file... (i didn't tested it then to recopy the xip in the rom... )
while using dumpromx i haven't found any solution to recreate the xip.bin file... there comes always an error when using the option to "resave" the files...
good news! i hope that i can test WM6 for MTeoR in near future
p.s. sorry, i can't help you with xip because i didn't know about it

@ ferrett1968: do you mean we found the original italian ROM?
dici che stavolta abbiamo trovato la ROM originale in italiano???
Anyone is welcome to add more roms to my server.
I hope we can get a collection of original roms in various
languages and host them in my server.
Of course, cooked roms are most welcome too.
Thanks janstan for this one... Unfortunately I forgot to dump my original Japanese rom...too bad.

Thanks for the original WWE Stock ROM - It will be needed when I send my Shift for Repair, it's screeqing at the hinges, and everytime I touch the screen the device "tordates" and sounds like an old door opening and closing...
err, don't mean to sound stupid but where was this original? I just installed it to try and revert it back to almost stock from thaihugo's rom, but I got a nasty squeeling and a gps style programe installed by default. I can only assume this was original rom from the US where iirc the gps was enabled as default.
has anyone seen a bog standard uk rom?

Remove the battery and let it be there for few minutes without battery or AC Power. Put the battery back and reboot. This solves the sound problem, at least it did for me. Telenav is installed by default for most of GPS based systems here in US for AGPS.
Thanks
Ram
I tried the battery out thing, but as soon as WM started up the squeeling started, thanks anyway, I'm back to Thaihugo's rom now. I'm me though so I'll be tinkering again soon enough.

Latest official AT&T ROM

Anybody extracted all the cabs already?
Especially interested in the Manila version and all the AT&T add-ons.
Thx
wait. you actually want the att bloatware?
also, the tf3d stuff is only slightly optimized, if you're running any of the manilas out there that are updated recently, it should perform better.. especially if you actually use wm6.5
Yes, the bloatware incl. Manila to rewrite/update my Fuze setup guide.
I admit that I'm a little bit reluctant to flash my phoen back to the latest ATT since I kinda depend on it for the next two weeks and cannot run the risk to wreck it at this time.
i c... I can provide you the set up file, but I have no knowledge of how to extract it. If you are interested, send me a PM and i'll see if i can upload the link for you.
EDIT: the official update is actually really good. especially the radio. my gps fix is very very fast, and my battery life is great.. even with push..
I can download the EXE from HTC/AT&T myself but would need to install to copy all cab files under the Windows directory.
If anybody has all the cabs which reside after an install (better a de-böoated install) would be great.
The success with the GPS and good lock is simply related to the Radio bundled with the new ROM which is/was available at XDA for some time. Sure, for a branded ROM it was finally time to fix these issues.
yeah, i did mention that the radio was why the gps is so much better. I'm just a sucker for going around flashing new radios... It got to be so much of a hassle keeping track of them that I gave up..
anyways, sorry I can't help you there in terms of the cabs since I'm very uncomfortable with doing stuff like that since I'm paranoid about my phone numbers and notes tagging along..
but I can say with confidence that the new update is really good and you should not be worried about flashing the new rom at all. The only thing is that I see you are using energyrom so i understand that you don't want to flash back and forth.
Can you take a look in your Windows dir and name me the CAB files there?
Most common none is deleted after install so that list could be helpful already.
NRG ROM ... well ... it ROCKS.
I'm not such a fan of 6.5 yet thus running the older NRG 2.0 without ANY problems.
sure! that I CAN do.. here's the list (btw, my rom is unbloated so i might have all of the cabs..)

Cool mate! ... and this is from the latest AT&T ROM upgrade?
Would you mind to copy all the cabs to your PC and zip them in one humongous file? Check PM
i can do that provided that it isn't locked in by the OS. I'll do it later when I come back.
Thanks, check your PM (Private Messages).

Actually, you don't need that CAB. It is installed during Initial Configuration, and it adds the registry entries that start TF3D on boot. However, I added the required entries to my TF3D CAB.
Hey NATF....what happened to the OzIM cab? I was curious about this thread because I wanted to know if there were a new version of the cab for the instant messaging package as well....or did you just leave it out because the version didn't change in the new ROM perhaps?

[Q] Questions re: BuildOS, WM6.5 stock files etc,...

Hi!!
*i've spent hours browsing the web and xda searching for answers*
okay, here's the story, I used to have a HTC Titan / 6800 a couple of years ago. When i had it i learned all about flashing etc. Made a few OS's even posted one on here and amassed a 15gb collection of all things PPC ;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650368
I sold that pocket PC. bad decision as i really liked messing around with them. So here i am a few years later, i've bought myself a Tytn II /Kaiser.
Before when i made the OS for the other one i used BuildOS from PPCKitchen
I used the kitchen files included after updating, also the NZ carrier that was available in PPCK and i had a nifty file repository i found which got updated with the very latest Windows Mobile builds and i would just import those files into PPCK (If PPCK didn't have that build).
Alas,... I can't find PPCKitchen anymore... from what i read they were updating their servers a few years ago.. but am not sure if they'll be back..
*If you can let me know whether they're still around that would be great, i keep getting DNS error when going to their page*
So far i've SPL unlocked the TYTN II using Hardspl.
I've also downloaded another cooking app called OS Kitchen Zero - Nice appy.
But i have no idea where to find the windows files to import into it. I don't want to edit my original windows mobile 6.1 on it, I'd rather install a fresh copy of windows mobile 6.5 .
And i don't want to edit someone elses rom, Just pretty much start off how i did before with a blank slate (fresh WM6.5 files - god i cant even remember the file extension) so to speak - this way any bugs i know are a result of me.
I'm not sure what will happen to my original carrier with this program also as i'd still like it to work with the New Zealand networks.
Anywayyy.. to SUM it up;
If you can help with the following questions i'd be very grateful;
1. Where's PPCKitchen / BuildOS gone? will they be back? Is there any place i can download the app in the meantime?
2. Where can i find Stock Titan windows mobile 6.5 Kitchen files? (The same that were needed for buildos - that it got from the updater)
3. Radio is not the same as carrier right ?.. or is it? I vaguely remember them being separate... Should i just flash a NZ radio to the device .. or do i need to choose NZ as the carrier also?
4. Is there a program like PPCkitchen that is inclusive of the WM builds and carriers avail?
5. CID/SIM unlock - do i need it? as i've already SPL unlocked.
And anything else that you think i might need help with.
Thanks, I appreciate it.

UPDATE : Amongst my PPC files i found the BuildOS Installer. Unfortunately without a server to contact there are no builds or app packages so cannot build a rom. I'm not fussed about the packages at present just need some build files if anyone knows where to get them. Thanks

I think, you need to look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517957
Thanks!
All of the links were broken on the main page, but managed to do a nifty google search and found Joshs file stash at - http://dl.ardiansyah.web.id/pub/index.php?dir=HTC/Kaiser/ROM/Joshroms/kitchen/
Tried integrating files into PPCKitchen but the build wasn't coming up.
Flashed to WM6.5 21820 from there, All working fine, sim included.
I read a lot of that post too, good info, am going to start cooking without PPCKitchen now. Seems like a lot more things i can play around with.
Cheers, legendary.
