Customized 1.72.181 Extended ROM - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

This extended ROM is based on the latest UK release of 1.72.181, and was customized for asian users of the Xda II.
All the latest versions of the software in the base ROM are included, minus all O2 UK custom settings and software, however all configuration settings are set to the old Asian extended ROM version 1.60.44.
I also added the latest drivers/software for the Socket Communications SDIO Wifi card and the Xda II Thumb Keyboard which automatically install as a part of the post install tasks.
I had to remove the Java MIDlet Manager included in the base ROM since the size limit of the extended ROM was exceeded, and I also removed the O2 Active UI since it is customized for O2 UK users. I included the installer .CAB file for the MIDlet Manager in the .ZIP file so that it can be installed manually after the ROM upgrade if desired.
I am currently using this custom extended ROM now and have not encountered any problems. It is ideal for Asian users of the Xda II.
Enjoy...

You are aware that build 181 is for those who need Blackberry, WAP and Mobile Web to remain connected when a phone call is received. It will disconnect any GPRS connection running, requiring a manual re-connection of GPRS.
Build 187 allows GPRS to remain connected when receiving a call. I suspect this is the PRIMARY build everyone should use.
The reason I mention this is that at this point I haven't heard what differnces there are in the Extended ROMs (specifically).

Blackberry support
Yes I am aware that this is the one for Blackberry, I customized this one because my provider, Globe Telecoms, has Blackberry service.

Have you connected to the Blackberry service?
We dumped Blackberry since it has crappy PDF/Excel/Word/Project support. We now use Pylon Anywhere and Pocket PCs, must say this solution is better than Blackberry.

Umm, if you read the documentation, you'd see that the Mobile Web and/or blackberry connection will remainconnected. All others will not, therefore unless you connect to GPRS without the default settings, it doesn't really matter.

ZeroXtreme,
Did you leave the Ultra Profile in it? or it comes with the 02 Active?

Yes, it is part of the O2Active stuff.

Ultra Profiler
As dcs mentioned, it is part of O2 Active UI.
I cant remember exactly where in the forum I got it from before, but there is a way to get just the Ultra Profiler and enable it on your unit. Try doing a search in the forum, the instructions and necessary files were provided.

I found a post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4278
However, it is from way back, so someone with the current version of O2 Active installed needs to build the same solution.

hi ZeroXtreme,
Could you please post the link to download your customised ROM? BTW, how do find with that customized ROM? Is that all stable and the bluetooth has been improved a lot?
Thanks for your help! :lol:

Its actually on the first post, but my friend also experienced problems with the download link not appearing, so here it is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=1623

since they upgraded the site, you would need to log-in first before you can see attachments on threads.
hope this helps.

I tried playing around with the Blackberry software but i guess only O2 UK users can benefit from it at the moment. Has anyone else in Asia or other countries besides UK tried it out?

Zeroxtreme,
Did the blackberry work for you? Do u also have the sync prog for the desktop? isnt this required when u first connect the blackberry to the desktop to sync Lotus notes?
thanks

Blackberry service
You will have to be a subscriber to the Blackberry service before getting it to function.
Globe Telecoms provide this service, I also know that Smart is also providing it.
I am still in the process of inquiring if the service can be subscribed to without purchasing the Blackberry device.

actually, yes, i am aware that we need to subscribe. Our company supports the feature as well in our domino server.
Have you tried it already though?
thanks

this is a realy goods news for us, but the fact is too few people use charmer. i only can do is wait for somebody make the sutiable rom for charmer.
today i used to make a test, write the Fantastic_b4_step2 ROM to charmer, but that is not function, stop at the second screen and system was down.
I have been using the htc Touch homescreen today plugin, wireless manager and dial pad on my charmer for the past week, however had to overclock the device to compensate for the lagging.

I've been using the above and a few of the other HTC apps on my Charmer for a good few weeks now and found that if I install the "v. 000.2 WM6 Essentials" rom and then the HTC apps I dont have to overclock the thing at all. Although the first time some of the apps are run they are slow.
I'd like to see someone add these to a new extended rom excluding all the naff T Mobile stuff that I have to bypass after flashing at the moment. I've also never flashed my PDA so often as I have recently.
I just have one problem and thats syncing with Vista Windows Mobile Device Center, its not working and giving me sync errors but doesnt tell you why typical Microsoft error trapping hey?
Adding the bits to the extended rom make n difference, however having them added to the actual rom does, anyway the charmer rom cookers have stated their stance on adding these tidbits to the rom and I appreciate that.
Regarding your active sync issues, are you using AS 4.5?

SETH´s NEON V3 FINAL & V3 LIGHTER

SETHS V3 FINAL & V3 LIGHTER
Band Patch added thanks to BenMHarvey.
​This is the Rom i have been using for the last month, it was going to be the ongoing work from V2.
I have made the decision not to develop Neon Roms anymore, so this is very much my last project. There are a few people that i would like to thank on this forum for their support through my learning process and i wish them best with their future devices. (They know who they are)!
I´m not really to bothered about Rom builds and numbers, my only objective was to find a Rom that worked well with my device. And being happy with this current one i have used it for months.
This Rom is UC compliant, basically you install what you want and have complete control of new cabs that you might want to add on.
Its simple:
1st - Create a document in notepad called SDConfig.txt
2nd - Add this text onto the file:
LOCK:Enabled
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\Opera Default Browser Registry.cab
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\DiamondCalculatorSkin2.cab
LOCK: Disabled
RST: Reset
3rd - Change or add the name of the cabs you want to install on your device.
4th - Save the file onto the root of your storage card.
5th - Create a Folder called "Cabs" on your storage card and place your cabs there.
Note: The name of the files have to be the same as the ones you typed in the SDconfig file.
Now when you install your new Rom, the cabs will be installed automatically.
Attached is my sample SDconfig file.

Removed Apps:

Some Ringtones
Just in case you prefer a lighter version with more space, besides that exactly the same as V3... And very fast.

Hope all you Neon users enjoy.
Regards,
Seth
thanx for all of your hard work!!!
Yes, great job
Brilliant - Thank you.
hello
i am having an error...
From :
Image Version : 1.36
To:
Image Version : 3.00.000.0
after the 1% i get
Error 244 : Invalid Model ID
this Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone.Please check your Update Utility.
Don't go!
I think you're the only, or one of a few, people developing for the NEON. Your rom's are the only ones I've tried on my NEON that actually work for any ammt of time! Don't go! Was it something we said? The lack of donations? Bummer....Thanks for your hard work and the contribution you made to this forum.
thanks for your great work
I'm with the previous reply. Please don't go, Seth. I just went from V2 to V3 and I finally have a phone that works the way I want. If its a matter of donations, let us know. If we need to be more vocal about a seperate forum, I'll shout it out.
Please, don't stop.
Bump
New Rom added.
Seth does this fix the band issue that was in V2??
Edit: Still suffers from incorrect bands
Works great Seth, its sad to see you leave mate new rom looks great
any screenshots of this ROM?
Looks just like his V2 but better some great additions and lots of handy little things added akes it one of the best roms to flash and go no need for lots of changes
Here are 2 .reg files that contain the correct Band Settings for the HTC Touch Dual 850 (Neon200)
This is attempt 2 at using the attach feature
Keyboard Issues
Hi Seth/Anyone,
I am having trouble with the 20 key keypad in Opera. It doesn't seem to allow input at all. Has anyone had this problem?
I have also noticed you have left of the java VM is there a way this can be added?
Thanks Wookienow.
I have the same problem in Opera 9 and 9.5. It works good in V 8.65.
Telstra Foxtel on Next G - How?
Hi All, thanks to my good friend Mike and seth, I now hope I have a faster NEON200 having just completed the leap of faith and upgraded my workhorse phone However, I miss my Foxtel TV - anyone got a streaming player and a way to have the Telstra WAP Gateway authenticate my NEON200 as a bonafide Telstra device so that I can watch Foxtel TV again? Thank you.

Well I did pick on something else as well as not being able to play Foxtel mobiletv anymore, and that is the calc.exe was missing its skin SpbCalc_P.gif so here it is for those who want to use this O/S ROM by seth. Once you unzip it and drag it over to your NEON, it has to sit in the /Windows directory of your NEON because calc.exe looks for it as /Windows/SpbCalc_P.gif

Well the answer is, after some surfing of this quality forum and also whirlpool, to watch Telstra Foxtel in all its glory (after you've subscribed of course) you just need to change the User Agent in the NEON200 registry from HTC_TouchDual Mozilla/4.0 to HTC_P5530 Mozilla/4.0 and also point your APN telstra.internet through the Telstra WAP gateway proxy of 10.1.1.181:80 and point Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE) to the URL of mobiletv.telstra.com None of this bizo of loading telstra cab files or default i-mate cab files (those cab files don't work and just add irrelevent Telstra and i-mate files to your NEON200).
What's more, by creating 2 different internet accessing connection profiles - one that uses the WAP proxy and one that doesn't - you can still watch all the free stuff on YouTube with the profile that doesn't use the proxy !!!
Work will be happy as well because I can still access my MS Exchange push email from my workhorse NEON200 LOL. Only now I won't feel like throwing it at the wall after it resets when when I want to make a phone call, or simply can't dial international without soft reseting the bloody thing.
Shall post up later how I started off with a slooooow Telstra off-shelf HTC Touch Dual 850 (NEON200) and got to the point where I am today thanks to Seth, Mike and other posters on this forum and on whirlpool. I ain't saying yet I'm happy with what I got, because I haven't had a chance to really use what I have now for any period of time. But I am hoping it will be a lot better than what I had based on comments in this thread
It's late now past 2am and I'm tired after working most of the day on this as well as my day job - what a day !!!

Japanese (almost) ROM WM6.5.2 23506

Japanese ROM is exhibited.
It is not perfected.
There are some in which Japanese MUI does not exist.
However, since the newest Japanese ROM did not exist, it made.
I am thankful to people of Da_G and others who offered Ervius Kitchen.
(My English is created with translation software. It is very cheaper and shameful.)
-The already known bug
1. The tab of a contact never becomes "#abc" and "アカサタナ."
If someone is known, please teach me a method.
2. Since it is Japanese almost, the portion in which MUI does not exist is English.
3. Since there is "no volume icon" in the expansion icon which will come out if a start menu is clicked, a white Windows flag is displayed.
SMS has installed neither.
If Softbank needs SMS, please carry out additional installation of the "SoftBankMMS_v093.cab."
open connection should carry out instrumental of the above "MMS ...", or should put in "Softbank Connection.cab."
X Although it is written as 05HT, since open connection etc. is not made, I think that Docomo is also possible.
日本語ROMを公開しますが、完璧ではありませんので自己責任でご利用ください。
■既知のバグ等
1. 連絡先のタブが、どうしても「#abc」「アカサタナ」にならない。だれか知ってたら方法を教えてください。
2. Touch FLO 3D 2.1 (Manilla)の予定表のメニューの「あたらしい予定」が「あたらしいゲーム」になっている。これ、MUI言語ファイルの翻訳ミスみたい。
3. ほぼ日本語なので、MUIが存在しない部分は英語です。
4.スタートメニューをクリックするとでる拡大アイコンに「音量」がないので白いウィンドウズマークが表示される。
いずれも、SMSはインストしてません。
ソフトバンクの方は、SMSが必要ならば「SoftBankMMS_v093.cab」を、追加インストールしてみてください。
open接続は前記の「MMS...」をインストするか「Softbank Connection.cab」を入れてください。
X05HTとは書いてありますが、open接続等は行っていませんので、Docomoも可能と思います。

Thanks for your Japanese rom. I am a Japanese student, I am looking for Japanese 6.5.X rom for a long time. Hopefully, you will keep improving your rom like other great masters on this forum.
By the way, I wonder if this rom has sim lock and is supporting 2G. If not, I can use it on any countries with GSM network. Am I correct?
Once again. Thanks a lot. Keep up with your good work.
Hi, wiltonw, Thank you for downloading.
I am sorry that it is unripe ROM.
This ROM supports GSM.
However, it does not depend for a SIM lock on ROM.
You should visit the following links, in order to SIMUnlock.
http://raphael.htc-unlocks.com/
Olipro provides it.
He is also one of the star player of this site.
His technology can be trusted very much.
I wil try it, good for studying Japanese!
ほんとにどうもありがとうございました!!  m(_ _)m
Thanks! I have been looking for a method of getting Japanese working on my phone for a while now and all of the things that I have tried so far have only half worked. I look forward to trying your rom.

[APP] Next2Me 1.3 RC4 for download here

Hi @ll!
I recently released version 1.2 of my latest App "Next2Me" to the US Windows Marketplace.
Next2Me uses GPS and shows you all available businesses around you from over 30 categories. You can view the results on a map, show detailed information. You can also call the target business, send the detail information to your friends by Mail or SMS or save the business to your contact list all by only one click!
And here is the latest BETA version of the upcoming Next2Me 1.3.
[UPDATE]
You can now manually choose between miles and meters. And for all US and Candians, Next2Me is now searching for "Gas stations"
[UPDATE]
I changed the GPS code a bit because some users get an exception on some devices.
[UPDATE]
Again changed the GPS device detection.
[UPDATE 04/25/2010]
o RC1 released
o Next2Me languages: DE, EN, FR, NL
o A menu to tell Next2Me how to search for your GPS device (this will solve several issues, like the exception told by some users and the unwanted bluetooth dialog which is automatically poping up)
[UPDATE 04/27/2010]
o Next2Me now in IT (thanks to Spyrale)
o Beautiful new High-Res Icons for the menu (thanks to Saumaun)
o Limit the search radius (250m, 500m, 1000m, 1500m, all)
[UPDATE 04/28/2010]
o Fixed a language bug for the italian version
[UPDATE 05/01/2010]
o Updated language strings for NL, FR and IT
If there aren't any more suggestions or bugs, this version will be send to the Marketplace
So, have fun with Next2Me and send me your suggestions, critics, etc.
C YA @LL!

Any non-marketplace download
Is this available anywhere besides the MS Marketplace? I don't want to have to install this to my internal memory.
I like the app: http://www.fuzemobility.com/learn-whats-next2me/
Any thoughts of using Google Location instead of GPS to speed things up? also, I don't see a way to email a location- just to SMS. Am I missing it? If it could pull the Google info that would be nice as well (such as type of restaurant, rating, etc). Overall I do like it though. Good luck with the project!
great app so far but sometimes you cant get a gps fix or it can take awhile. would it be possible to use google location or Sleuth's myLocation Service here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=607102. These might work better and they will almost always work and are much quicker than a gps fix.
Looks interesting. But please, could you kindly post it somewhere else than on the Marketplace.
No way I will go to the MarketPlace. I do not want to download any cab on the internal memory.

From what I've seen, this app has a lot of promise, but I have had a problem...
On my Tilt2, whenever I look for something with Next2Me, I get a message "Invalid GPS Signal..." or "No GPS Device found.". But, if I start up Google Maps first, and let it get my GPS position and then start up Next2Me, it works just fine. Any thoughts/suggestions?
Also, if it could toggle between km and miles, it'd help for us Americans who won't join the rest of the world in using km's
One more suggestion for future updates...if we could set the # of hits returned or better yet, if we could specify a 'radius' to search it'd make the app even more user friendly.
Thanks for the work and keep it up

Yeah, that would be a solution to use the location service using the Google Location. I can implement support for the myLocation service of Sleuth, but I would prefer to implement the location service into Next2Me, so that there is no need for the user to install another application to use Next2Me. Are there any specifications or source code snippets how to use the Google Location service under Windows Mobile?
I don't see a way to email a location- just to SMS. Am I missing it? If it could pull the Google info that would be nice as well (such as type of restaurant, rating, etc). Overall I do like it though. Good luck with the project!

Next2Me checks your Mobile Outlook on you cell phone, if there's an E-Mail account available. This e-mail account will be used to send the email with the location service. The button for sending an e-mail will only be shown if there's an email account set up in your Windows Mobile.
Hope this helps!

Good to hear that ... I don't know the exact cause of the problem, but strangewise the GPS-Stream is on most of the HD2 different to rest of the world's mobile phones ... and on some not, like yours.

Not really ... it's currently available as BETA version. You can download it from the first post. Did Next2Me crash with version 1.1 or earlier? I want to test it with as much cell phones as possible, so please write me if you have any errors with Next2Me.
Additional info: Next2Me 1.2 BETA also supports location using the GSM network. So, it also works with cell phones without GPS module.
Love the new version, Fast, nice GUI and great info! Thanks for this very useful app!
LoL I restart the Omnia and now it works good (Version 1.2).
But how can we add content?

What do you mean with that? Do you want to add your own categories and search criterias? This is not possible currently. I am thinking about implementing it, but currently it's not possible. This BETA version is for testing it with as much as possible cell phones, to be sure position detection is working on every phone.

Tested on tmobile touch pro 2 and works very well on cell tower location. Haven't tried on GPS.
However, the result for gas station is way off, reporting station like 700KM away from current location. Other services seem fine.
Besides, is it possible to change units? Or show current gas price?
Working really nice on my HD2 ! Congratulations man

New Windows Mobile Bing App! Updated 04/14/2010 Cab Inside.

New Windows mobile Bing app is here!
No clear changlog is out yet.
"It's almost difficult to say how many Windows Phone owners prefer to use Microsoft's own Bing app as opposed to Google's. Luckily for those users who happily rely on using the Bing app, there is an update that brings the app to version 5.1.2010. It's unfortunate that Verizon Windows Phone owners can't get in on this update – that's because it only is available to Windows Phones on AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile. It's not to say that it's a bad thing for those Verizon owners because it looks to be only a maintenance update and doesn't really offer anything exciting..........."

I uploaded the Cab here so everyone can download...even us Verizon users that got left out
This cab is for Windows Mobile 6.1 or 6.5.
Cheers!
If its any help this is version
Bing Mobile 5.1.2010.3290
Previous was
5.0.11249.0
Its alot quicker than the previous version and they have moved the menus to the bottom. I cant see much change.
I still prefer the old Bing/Live Search layout and configuration.
Movie times used to be so easy to browse, with the new style it does a bing search instead of getting the data from a provider. I think MS decided to cheap out. It's now basically useless in my books.

If they could combine the Style/look of the new with the functionality of the older one...they would have a winner

Thanks! I didn't even know this was the new Bing app. Never tried it before since the cabs I tried a while ago never worked. Too bad we can't have both Bing apps...

no problem
Using it on my Tmobile HD2 with Energy Rom. Working fine. I was using the previous version too and can't tell if there's any change. Wish it had a functional version of voice SMS like Microsoft TellMe.

Here's a newer update Cab for all of you.
They have updated the lay out a bit again.

I doubt it'll work, but does anyone else here have the guts to try this out on a Kaiser to see if it works or not..??

Downloaded the latest directly from MS and installed on my Diamond/CDMA and it seems to be working fine. The one I used is a bit larger than the one a few posts up, so I've attached it for convenience.

Yeah, but isn't the Diamond WM 6.1?
I tested it on 6.1, but don't see why i won't work upwards, maybe the two are different versions indeed for different OS.
Mine worked on VGA TouchPro WM 6.1
i cant save 'gps tracking.' it remains unchecked everytime i check the settings. therefore gps is unable to locate me. this pop up always shows everytime i attempt to locate my position, "allow bing to access and store your location to improve searching and for navigation?" it doesnt matter if i chose ok or cancel because there are no change in results regardless. google maps is working fine for me so im sure its not a gps issue from my phone.
