Additional Note: It has been brought to our attention that some users flash TEST ROMs and ask support for third party apps. This UNOFFICIAL ROM is still under development and you can't expect support from it. If you can't afford to have a buggy phone, this is not for you. By flashing this TEST ROM, it means you are willing to take the risks, solve any bugs encountered yourself and report problems to this forum.
HOW TO REPORT A PROBLEM:
1. INDICATE ROM VERSION
2. DEVICE AGE / PURCHASE DATE OF ATOM
3. SOFTWARE INSTALLED (STATE THE SEQUENCE)
4. STATE THE PROBLEM
5. HOW TO ARRIVE AT THE PROBLEM (SCREEN SHOTS WOULD HELP)

Special Note:
This is NOT an OFFICIAL ROM. You can not expect support from O2 by bringing in your device with this ROM. Neither should you contact them for support on this ROM. By downloading and upgrading your device with this ROM, you agree to the considerable risk of bricking your device; and that I can not be held liable for damage brought about by the usage of this ROM.
Jiggs
Side Note: This will not SIM unlock or change your mobile serial no. (IMEI) in any way. You can flash back to original ROM anytime! Do not attempt to flash this on ATOM EXEC! If you get COUNTRY ID ERROR, you did not follow steps above. Do NOT restore from spb / sprite full backup, this will overwrite system files and make your device unstable; worse, unusable.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO UPDATE YOUR DEVICE USING SD CARD FLASHING!!!
Official XDA Atom WM5 AKU2.2 WWE Thanks MightyOX!
To everyone who tested this ROM:
When I say this is for evaluation only, it means you are to test this ROM. It is not a perfect ROM. We will never know the bugs unless it is subjected to different scenarios. You can not also expect to have every solution to every problem encountered in this ROM. You can, however, do your part and contribute by finding a solution yourselves. I cannot do this alone, and this is not the only thing I do. I posted this ROM to share with everyone else, and get to enjoy more features for our neglected device. If you are not contented, you can always go back to the previous ROM of your choice. We are not forcing you to use this ROM. Please don't make demands here...
Jiggs
Good work!!! Make this ROM for Atom exec support miniSDHC...
Is this the same as the one you PM'd me with? <.<
I'm still going to test the beta to see if the SDHC drivers work, tho.
What is the difference between various page pool sizes. How do I decide which one I need.

more or less... hope SDHC works! only some minor changes. I had to change pagepool to have different program memory requirements. been using 4mb since yesterday, graphics is lagging but processing power is still the same result as per benchmarking.
Thanks again JIGGS....your update is keep on coming , blessing from you for our atom.. MANY THANKS
yes right, can you explain to us the pagepool differences? which is better of this 3?
JUST A REMINDER GUYS...so no one will have a dead ATOM!

I can't tell you which is better. You have to try it. Different users have different requirements. It's a trade off between graphics speed and available program memory. processing speed is not affected by it based on my benchmarking tests.
Mirror needed
Any1 can provide a mirror on megaupload or wikiupload?
Thx!
PS: Jiggs, very nice job!

4MB PAGEPOOL : 54.4MB Program Memory : | mediafire |---->SO THIS ONE HAVE THE BIGGEST FREE PROGRAM RAM AVAILABLE? AM I RIGHT JIGGS? THANKS... i just want to clarify everything..

I don't advise you to sacrifice too much pagepool for program memory, tho - WRT experience from the WM5 builds, a large pagepool actually speeds up your device. If you don't wish for the Atom 1st Gen ROM experience (and, given that the unit I own used to belong to my first adopter sister, I'm well familiar with that), take the 6MB PP at least.
By the way, folks, I have "moved" my "sig". For great justice. ^_^
By the way: You know those default program cabs Jiggs puts into the extROM? It's safe to delete them if you don't intend to install them (you must install the extROM unlock first, however). Just as long as you don't touch anything that doesn't look like an official program install or directory, you should be safe - and you get to use your extROM as an install location. Hard reset and soft reset still works correctly without them around, so if you plan to use your extROM and need the real estate, go right on ahead.
(I wonder what happens if I hard reset with a custom cab in there... tho I'm a little too lazy to reinstall everything right now.)
Any chance of an update for the o2 atom exec?

contrary to our experience in WM5, WM6 didn't suffer as much LAG as it did during the past. In fact, I'm still using the 4MB without any complaints. I don't know for others who play games on their ATOM....
How's SDHC my friend? working?

THANKS for the advice bro..maybe i will try to see the difference of both. One of my friend will install a different pagepool and we will compare.
adtl advice, just copy those cabs you will erase to your SD card then maybe oneday, someone or you may need it ;-)

I have commissioned chartreux to do it. After all, he has the device to test the build. I wouldn't want to risk another davidw89 if you know what I mean.
Extended Rom
Actually, you don't need to unhide the Hidden Partition. You just need Total Commander and key in \_QHiddenPartition\ and perform normal operation (copy, delete, etc.)

WARNING: ROM Updating is NOT without risks. Please read the instructions carefully!
Preclude:
I haven't expected my ROMs will still frerquently updated today. I want to thank all of you who help me. You can donate me if you like my rom. Even $0.02 will satisfy me and encourage me to further support the rom.
Acknowledge:
Bepe for great tools. wuqiyu007 for porting XIP part. Garmin for great tutorials. abusalza for useful reference ROM. Homer285 for useful reference ROM. l3v5y's for great oem packages.

ogel2, Tabbe and ronalddo for testing the atom rom.
Special Thank to BesFen, he helps me making an Manila 2D enabled new ROM and give me many good suggestions.
Rom Selection Guide:
There are so many ROMs on my thread that the new comers can hardly find which one fit their needs. This section will describe each ROM concisely and state my suggestion.
->If you want a stable ROM with Chinese support:
The main series of "clean and stable" ROM will fit you best. This ROM is also well supported by me and the stability is evaluated by time. I recommend you the b221 ROM.
->If you want to try something new and bleeding edge versions
The WP 6.5 series ROM fit you best.
->If you want to try Manila 2D enabled ROM:
There are 2 versions: Jade version and Besfen version. I do not support the Jade version very well due to time limitation. Besfen version is newer and supported by him. I think you can try Besfen's version first.
->If you want to make your own customization:
Try my kitchen. It is supported by me and you can ask questions about it.
->If you want ROMs of other languages:
There are CHS, CHT, GER versions.But they are unsupported and a little old. The stability is OK.
->If you want Atom ROM:
THere are Atom-R2 Rom here. But it is not supported. You can try it.
HP6828 Clean and Stable WM6.1 WWE rom:
The rom have Jade's kernel and kaiser's system as the base. The pagepool is 6M for stability as well as performance.

Kitchen World:
The kitchen is a set of tool and files to rebuild and customize the ROM for convinence. I hope cookers enjoy these tools. I also released the non-supported 20273 system in hope of external force to stabilize it. Atom's kitchen is a little old. But it is still a good base to build atom's ROMs. Update f is essentially a new 6.5 kitchen. You can enjoy that more.
Donation
Thank you very much for those who has donated and supported me. You do not need to donate as 6828 is not exciting any more. You can show your thanks by following this thread.

How to flash using SD Card(Recommended):
Extract diskimg.nb0 to a sd card (<1G is better), insert it into 6828, press&hold 2 soft key(-) and reset. After a while, it will be in PBL mode, wait 15-20min, it will hard reset itself and flash done. The first boot time is very long so be patient , you may click the screen so that the device will not auto-off.
How to flash from PC with Windows XP (It is ok to run it in vmware)
Thanks Knave and rcperez for posting their detailed experience so I can write this section. Also thanks jimmyspa for improving the addheader's performance greatly.
1. Check your Boat loader version
(do a soft reset, and check the value printed at the bottom during the HP logo screen)
2. If you noticed that the last line states BL 1.00.05, it means you have boat loader 1.05 installed. You will need to download and flash your phone back to 1.01 via ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/sp34053.exe (VERY DANGEROUS, FLASHING VIA SD IS MUCH SAFER!)
3. After successfully downgraded your phone's boatloader, or your version was already v1.01, you can proceed to flash your phone to the rom.
With the check done, proceed with the required files.
1. Go to download section to download the rom file.
2. Download the file pcupdate.zip attached in this thread and unzip the contents to the same folder you used in step 1.
3. Download the latest Rom file and extract to the same folder
4. Run BuffereAddHeader.bat. It will take seconds to generate a diskimage_Ver.nb0. (You should have Java Runtime > 1.50 installed, http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp)
5. Move your phone to boatloader mode ( press the two - keys, follow by a poke at the soft reset hole with your stylus )
6. Connect the phone to the PC
7. Execute the Device Utility Update program and wait till it verifies the state. Click on Update Item "All" use cursor keys to change it to "OS ONLY" then hit next **** SELECT "OS ONLY", if you cant change it to "OS ONLY" DONT PROCEED!!! It should detect your device as Model 0 etc.
8. Press Next to begin flashing.
9. Once completed, the phone will reset by itself. Wait for a while for it to startup.
Here are the notes & files provided by hochengsoon with README for flashing via Windows XP
PC flashing using BL1.0.1 must be done from C:\Windows\Temp, so why not start everthing from this folder ie PCUpdate + ROM + missing file(s).

How to use kitchens (NEW writen by besfen):
Req: .NET2.0+
1. Download Kitchen Tools and extract it.
2. If you have diskimg.nb0 file that you want to modified, copy it to the TOOLS directory and ROM directory.
3. In "cmd", "cd" to the TOOLS directory.
4. Run prepare_imgfs.exe diskimg.nb0, it will dump the .nb0 file.
5. Run viewimgfs.exe imgfs_raw_data.bin, it will make dump folder in the TOOlS directory.
6. Run pkgtools.exe, select the dump folder and build package, it will make 2 folder, SYS and OEM.
7. Sometime some files don't move to that folder, you can open missing.txt file to know where the location of that file, move the files to the location said in the missing.txt. Finally, there isn 't files in the dump folder, all file are in the SYS and OEM. Delete missing.txt and OS.bat in OEM folder. SYS is M$ related, OEM is oem added things.
8. Replace the original SYS and OEM folder in the kitchen with new extracted ones.
User can change the OEM at will except the OEMDriver folder. I have modified it many times to get it stable on new ROM.
To add a new OEM Software, you need:
1. Extract the cab file of the app, you can use wincab manager to do this.
2. Put the extracted files to the new folder in the OEM. The folder name don't contain space, you can use _ (underscore).
3. Type the registry in the one of .rgu file. There are many .rgu file there, you can edit it with notepad. if you finish save as, choose all file and unicode type, but don't change the name of that .rgu file.
4. Make a shortcut, open initflash.dat file with notepad, the location is in the OEM_lang folder, type the shortcut name. You can read the existing shortcut in that file to know how to do it. Remember to make the shortcut file first in the folder of each app.
After that, just run build.bat file in the kitchen directory, follow the instruction and your ROM already created in the FLASH FOLDER.
GOOD LUCK.

First, the wifi light is working on my 6828. The camera flash light do not work though.
Second, I have ALREADY cut the 12 byte header, so it is safe to flash using a SD card. I said that if you need to flash using RUU you need to ADD 12 BYTE.
Thanks for your interest in my rom.

This is interesting. Can people report whether this is a stable ROM, other than the noted bugs?
Also, will it flash with a 2gb miniSD card? That's all I have.
Thanks.
i need a clean rom too, nhocbanme's rom is great but it's not clean. Dirty with HTC applications and full of black which i don't like.
i'm currently using this rom since a month ago, i think this is a stable and great rom. work flawlessly.
thanks helloworld1
i'm waiting for ur next update rom
Hellooow....helloworld1,
I ve flash this ROM today. It took about 15 minutes. Very good and clean ROM. Everything works perfect, Bluetooth stereo working nice, JAVA midlet also okay, camera works good with flash automatically light during photography. High memory after install 70 applications still got 42MB internal memory left. Hmmm....what else to comment...nothing , all perfect
When are you going to release WM6.1 with this type of super clean ROM....waiting....waiting
Keep up the good work!!!
I've splatted my 6815 with this ROM today, and thankfully it works a treat! It takes a while for its first boot but then I started to breath again when it came up.
The camera doesn't work at all though. The program loads but errors with "failed to get jpeg stream" or similar when clicking the cam's hw button. However that's a small sacrifice to pay when the pay off is WM6, that HP can't be bothered to provide.
Many thanks to helloworld1, and here's hoping you release WM6.1 in due course. \o/

6815 may need a patch to get camera working. You may need to search around.
I do not have a 6815, so I will not embed it in this rom.

I haven't find any solution in the bugs in "bad section". So maybe I will not do minor update to this rom. Also, it will, maybe, save your time updating something worthless.
What about 6.1:
Due to the reason that 6.1 haven't been official released, I do not have a strong will to make a unstable rom.
I will release a 6.1 rom if it is stable and no clean one have released.

No, NEVER TRY TO UPDATE IT WITH CARD MORE THAN 1GB!!
It will almost surely brick(not badly) your device that causes some unnecessary trouble. After that you can still flash again.
So there are 10(!) choices for you:
01.Buy a 256m or 512m card.
11.Add 12 byte header and flash using RUU.
10.Simply do not update

Finally Working Bluetooth problem
For ATOM/ATOM PURE ONLY
Download link moved to post #2
Step by step upgrading
NOTE: These steps only apply if you have an ATOM/ATOM Pure.
Basically, there are three steps to flash a custom ROM to your ATOM.
1. Choose and download your choice of custom ROMs
2. Flash the custom ROM to your Atom using the Device Software Update Utility (DSSU)
3. Flash the custom ROM using MiniSD
Preparation
Backup your personal information using a program such as PIM Backup (freeware). Also make sure your phone has at least a 50% charge. You need M$ ActiveSync 4.5 for XP or Windows Mobile Device Center for VISTA and 7 to upgrade your device through PC.
Please read through this guide and download the all the necessary files beforehand. That way, you know exactly what you're getting into.
Choose and download your custom ROM
There are many, many custom ROMs out there for the Atom.
Look through the threads and find a ROM that you like. Custom ROMs differ in their preinstalled software, system settings, performance tweaks, and more.
ROMs usually come compressed in a .zip file. Extract the downloaded ROM file to somewhere on your hard drive temporarily in preparation for the next step.
Flash Custom ROM Using DSSU
Copy the custom ROM file (usually came with 6 files) to C:\WINDOWS\Temp folder you just extracted.
Once you've got everything hooked up correctly, run the Device Software Update Utility (DSSU).exe program inside of the C:\WINDOWS\Temp folder you just copied. Follow the onscreen instructions to flash the custom ROM to your phone. Reboot your phone at the end and you're finished. Enjoy the new custom ROM!
In case you can't update the ATOM in active mode, you may need to update by entering bootloader mode. Hold the down power and camera button and use your stylus to press reset button at the same time until you see monochrome bootloader screen. Then connect your phone via USB cable to your computer.
Follow the onscreen instructions to flash the custom ROM to your phone. Reboot your phone at the end and you're finished. Enjoy the new custom ROM!
Flash Custom ROM Using MiniSD
*Not recommended
Here's the step how to flash your Atom using MiniSD.
1. Extract downloaded custom ROM to somewhere on your harddrive.
2. Cut first 12byte header of diskimage_Ver.nb0 using hex editor.
3. Rename diskimage_Ver.nb0 to diskimg.nb0
4. Rename ExtendedROM.img to extended.img
4. Copy both files diskimg.nb0 and extended.img to your miniSD
Now, hold the down power and camera button and use your stylus to press reset button at the same time until you see monochrome bootloader screen. The Atom will flash the new ROM automaically. Once it done, setup the device and enjoy the new custom ROM.
Big thanks to HelloWorld, [email protected], Tj's and all atom tester...

Thanks Glossy.....wow first one in line..........
Downloading now and will flash it later.....will update you from the try outs.
Good work though!
I'm wondering and really hope if this is very CLEAN, FAST & STABLE WM6.5 ROM in LOW BATTERY CONSUMPTIONS for O2 XDA Atom. Thanks before GlossyX1, you're the Atom ROM masterpiece too!
Wow! Great!
Thank you for this new build. Will try soon...
Have a try and gimme some report...
Gloss,
Tried for half a day now, this is what I have :
- overall, this built is much better than the previous, in terms of memory and battery
- overall functions and programs ran smoothly and no problems
- calls and receiving calls all good
- I can't seem to set the ringer mode to ring and vibrate but the phone by default now will ring and vibrate even if not set for vibrate, so no complains there
- persian blue works nicely to compensate for WM6.5 not able to locate any bluetooth device to beam
- Tested and still unable to sync/add more than 2 bluetooth devices, but at least I managed to get activesync working and also my handsfree, that's all I want anyway.
- taps and display are all fast, no issues there.
- booting from hard and soft reset are coming up nicely now
- one advice for user of this ROM is don't try to unlock the Extended ROM and use, the Extended ROM not very stable and when it crash, you will have problem reseting and booting your device, takes a long time and a few soft resets
But overall for me, this is a good, clean and stable ROM(forgetting about the bluetooth issue). Thanks to Glossyx1 and Helloworld1.............
Let's hope someone comes up with a permanent fix for the bluetooth issue, then this will be the defacto WM6.5 for Atom's!

What do you mean by unlock the EXTENDEDRom? I use this ROM for several days and found no problem on my device. Now I uninstalled PersianBluetooth to save more memory.
Did you found another issue? Has anyone else try this ROM?
I am in the road right now and im gonna try it tonight when i got home. one thing i would like to know if it is possible to install Spb Mobile Shell (current version is 3.5) and install MSkip ProPlus Elegance skin since I like this skin so much? if it is possible, what is the xda atom resolution based on the list QVGA, WQVGA, VGA, WVGA? sorry not familiar with and this is a bit off topic but I am consider sticking on this rom until such time that there is a solution for the bluetooth issue.

Waiting for your feed. I'm not tested yed to install SPB mobile, but there's no issue when I install another cab application. You have to try it by your self and give us a report. ATOM is QVGA device. thanks
Gloss,
What I mean by unlocking the Ext ROM is that I installed the unlock extended cab file so that the Ext ROM will be visible via file explorer or Resco explorer. Unless the cab I am using is not working properly for WM6.5(it's meant for WM6) but after I unlock it and became visible, I installed a few application on the Ext ROM to try, it was working fine until I need to soft reset the device(as some application do), then the Ext ROM is no longer visible and takes a long time to reboot(think OS can't get at the Ext ROM). Well, other issues is as my previous post, the ring mode can't set to ring and vibrate but it vibrates anyway. Then the same problem with bluetooth not able to add more than 2 devices still there. Otherwise I would say all is prefect.
As for SPB Mobile Shell, I tried installing it before under Helloworld's ROM(21869) before but does not work. The application installed okay but just could not get it to run, do not know why? Maybe some software conflict?
Add application
Hi Gloss,
Where or how can I add applications(.exe) manually in WM6 to the program or Today menu section? Is there a way? I am trying to add some other application like Torch Light, Chess games etc.
So far so good your ROM........(up till now)....

I see, you can't unlock the EXTRom as it is configured automatically in a file named config.txt. So, every chef has configured it depend on what it is configured in config.txt to EXTRom. Another thing, don't ever use other EXTrom but what is it included on ROM package, it wont work.
For the Ring mode, I can set it as usual in ring mode. Just go to setting->sound and notification->incoming call. Not working??? Try this, set to ring and vibrate, restart and set to ring.
Bluetooth??? Need some magic
I just tried to install SPB 3.5 and it works as well

No you cant, while run standalone application (.exe) you wont see any shorcut because it not registered to registry and doesn't have any shortcut (lnk). You can try to build CAB file and set all shortcut in (initflash.txt) for eq to put TorchLight.exe then write it down Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\"):-File("Torch.lnk","\Windows\TorchLight.lnk"), it will show Torch on Start Menu->Programs
Try this to make a CAB file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400221
Yeap, learned that after unlocking it today....had to reflash again and the 2nd time I did not unlock it, all fine after that. I was hoping to use some of the available memory on Ext ROM, so no choice then.
Thanks for the link for making cab, will go thru the thread and learn some cab making...
Cheers and keep at it......good ROM there.....clean and stable! The way it should be!
So bluetooth handfree is not working again

It usual happen while atom run out of memory. My ROM preinstalled with PersianBluetooth, when you try to install custom home screen eq SPB then your screen goes white. Here is a tip for you: Try to remove PersianBlue and see what happen. I'm not recommended to use any custom Home Today screen because WM6.5 use more resource than you can expected.

I don't have any bluetooth device, test it by your self and give me feedback.
Cheers...
Dragon,
Bluetooth handsfree is fine, working. Only issue is choose your bluetooth devie wisely as you can only add 2 bluetooth device only at the moment. So for me, luckily 2 is just enough, one for activesync and one for handfree(bluetooth). The reason is after you added the 2nd bluetooth device, you can't see add new device tap anymore.
Good luck....
Brief Introduction
Code:
As what I've promised before, it's right here. Please report for any existed
bugs.
For guys who think that the automatically running ActiveSync is a bug, you can
use the "patch" attached - but I myself don't think that it is.

Sorry, I can't. I've applied a lot of changes in settings and installed a couple of softwares into my device already...
But it is MWG-like. It can be regarded as an official update from MWG.
You're really the first one!
About the free RAM at startup... I can get over than 24,000 KB at the moment(I had installed a lot softwares). I didn't apply any changes to the cache of file system, which means the cache size is still 2 MB as default.
It's as much as you can get in the latest official WM6 ROM, right?

I hope Your new ROM can give more Free RAM. Your Build 21056 only give me about 13Mb Free RAM after install all application that I need. So hard download from Mediafire Lol..................
Have finished download, and now I'm using your ROM and add all Apllication ( and games too ) that I need. About 14,55 Mb Free of RAM and only have 651,71 Mb Free of Storage. Cool..............

Like Bajok! says :
HOW TO FLASH THE ROM:
1. You must have at least 70% battery.
2. Use mini-SD card and format it to FAT16 (use only 2GB capacity and below, don't use SDHC card!)
3. Copy AL1.DIO to card.
4. Insert card to memory slot of your device. Press and hold record button (beside the camera button) then push reset button with your stylus. Wait until BOOTLOADER mode appears saying "SD CARD DETECTED", release the record button.
5. Wait 'til it finishes until the O2 logo and splash screen appear. Follow the on screen steps. HAPPY FLASHING!!!
Thanks your ROM is very light, fast and battery usage is very good with this..
I surprised!! solved my problem for years on battery usage problems.
Just had to say thanks, sadly last week my old faithful HTC TYTN died, and i almost cried, and i had to get another PDA.
The one i got was an 02 Atom Life, however the stock rom wouldnt run some of the apps i use and depend apon, and couldnt do some basic stuff like send the USSD to get credit info (*100#), so i tried the official 6.1 update which still didnt run my app, or allow me access to my info, then i tried this Rom.
Everything goes again, (including USSD) ive tried your 6.5's but frankly I prefer this one alot much more, I just wanted you to know I appreciate your effort to the community.
The problem i have it they layout for the 6.5, do you have a 6.5 with the 6.1 Setup? If so i would gladly test it for you.

Everything goes again, (including USSD) ive tried your 6.5's but frankly I prefer this one alot much more, I just wanted you to know I appreciate your effort to the community.
The problem i have it they layout for the 6.5, do you have a 6.5 with the 6.1 Setup? If so i would gladly test it for you.
Regards
Andrew (New Zealand)

I'm sorry, but I couldn't understand your last question... I beg your pardon?
Sorry, ill phrase it better,
with your WM6.5 roms i noticed they didnt have the standard start menu, like the WM5.0 / WM6.1, it instead your WM 6.5 has the touchflo type menu.
Is it possible to make a 6.5 rom without the touchflo ?
or can the touchflo be turned off so the old start menu works?

Yes... There're two ways that you could be able to use WM6.1-styled Start Menu, but both are not perfect neither:
1. Use the QuickMenu instead.
2. Recook a WM6.5 with a hexed shell32.exe file(by Sun_Dream in DFT) and other WM6.1 DPI and Lang *.dll files. I have just cooked one and that was under tweaked, but unfortunately my device broke again in the day before yesterday... So I'm afraid that you may have to cook it yourself.
My device is fixed now. I've got the thing you meant done, but themes of WM6.5 or later are not applicable for this ROM. The WM6.5 lockscreen and Titanium are not present as well...
So does anyone want to try that?
hi aa125690, been almost a year but this rom is fine!
I have a problem here =
1. when i flash the rom back to MWG original rom (.exe) through dsuu I can't find "wireless tab" under setting-connection-wifi.
2. same thing happen using original O2 wm5 or wm6 rom. no wireless tab inside.
I thought this was DSUU problem so I did =
3. using modified flash.dio as al1.dio from both original O2 rom (miniSD mode) resulting the same.
4. using modified flash.dio as al1.dio from original mwg rom (miniSD mode) resulting the same.
many hard-resets but they solve nothing. strange thing is = all rom from this xda-developer site (from you, bajok!, chrisch, etc, which are all minisd mode) are free from this problem. do you have any idea?
I just wanted to feel the "old feeling" when the atomlife was still on wm5 just like old time.
Hello everyone.
I know that there is already a big thread to discuss about Diamond2 clones, but I've decided to create my own thread, only focused on T5388++, to make it clean and organized as I like.
In this thread you'll find all my cooked ROMs. You should be able to get it from my T5388++ 4shared folder! You can bookmark this link. The password to access the folder is XDA-Developers.
Feel free to post your comments. I hope you like it!
EDIT: Don't you forget to donate for all my work. I've made some improvements over the official ROMs and you all know it. A lot of downloads of my ROMs have been made, but only a few people have donated. Remember that I do this in my spare time and a little contribution is highly appreciated.
Just for your information, in less than 2 months, there were more than 100 downloads of V1 ROM.
Available ROMs
Here you can find my custom made T5388++ ROMs. Please be sure to read this carefully in order to avoid unnecessary questions.

** Reserved for future use.
Finally i uploaded this ROM ... and I'm pleased at first sight.
This man just have done great work. It's fast and clean and with good bonuses! Ultra FAST
I hope that i'll be able to donate few $$ soon.
I have question to the cooker : How can i boost to maximum screen sensitivity ?
The only 1 problem is described below by another good user:

BTW what is the latest original ENG ROM?
I've found a list at "3w.htc-topaz.co.cc/files/index.php?dir=ChineseClone_Files" and flashed to S650WM653_20100412_C0302001_english.rar. I think that this may be the latest one, isn't it? Proofed don't know newer. It works on 5388++
Here I go:
Flashed from C03.001.01 ENG to your WM23135-ROM
Result: Restart Loop
[1] Flashing finishes without error
[2] After flashing ROM the device restarts itself
[3] Removed USB Cable
[4] Blue "Touch Diamond 2" is displayed
[5] New animated Windows Mobile Welcome-Screen is displayed
[6] Display goes black and device restarts
[7] goto [4]
Flashed from C03.001.01 ENG to C03.020.01 ENG
Result: Flashing successfull
[1] Flashing finishes without error
[2] WM is working properly
Flashed from C03.020.01 ENG to your WM23135-ROM
Result: Flashing successfull - BUT!!!
[1] Flashing finishes without error
[2] Now WM is starting without restart

Thanks a lot!
Thanks a lot bgcngm for all your hard work already so fast. I will try your new ROM next week. Good that you removed the boot firmware so all of us have less chance that the phone will becomes a brick
I would like to see the extendir version if I don't ask too much the Manila2D package for DUAL SIM
Have fun with cooking.
Thank you Eer.
I will work on the Extendir ROM maybe this weekend.
Right now I only wanted to release a normal one so that everyone can install without a problem. I had it running in my T5388++ for 3 days and haven't experienced a single SoD. I'm now starting to believe that the SoD's reported by some users are due to hardware problems... Additionally Wifi, GPS, GSensor, Bluetooth, Phone1/2 are fully working.

That's NOT true! I had SOD on my T5388++ every day until i have flashed ROM from previous thread!
Well, if you are so sure about that, then you should have no SoD with my V1 ROM either. As I said, I have been running it for 4 days without experiencing any SoD.
First of all, thanks for your work. I think that SOD is a mixture of both, software and hardware, surely these are not all made mobile with the same components, causing problems of instability depending on models depending on hardware. I do not think the solution comes from a magical software, surely that one will be good for another will not.
These are all assumptions clear jejejeje.
I had just installed this ROM.
Common impression: it's VERY fast.
PS:
Today's item "Wireless" is still "squashed"

I guess that it will always be squashed. To be honest I haven't tried to fix it because I don't use the old Today anymore. As far as I understand, the plugin doesn't "work" properly with this WM build.
Just for curiosity, why do you enable the old Today screen? Don't you like Titanium?

I don't like new WM6.5-Style "Today" (IMHO it suxx). I'd prefer to use more "ascetic" WM6.1-Style, with several items(plugins) on it: Date/Time, Wireless, SPB Weather, SPB Pocket Plus or Resco Today Plugin

I flashed it using the SD method, successfully .
(Maybe IDT is better, but all of my machines use Win7 x64... which is not working with IDT. Flashing from Virtual XP under Win7 x64 was not option last time, so I was brave.)
ThoSi, can you tell me how were you able to flash the ROM via SD? When I tried it, I got a message telling that the file size was not correct. My microSD card is formatted as FAT32, but the size (4GB) may be the problem.
I'm also running Win7 x64 in my laptop, so I have to use XP Mode in order to flash via IDT. It fails a lot of times, that's why I choose to remove unneeded parts from the ROM.

I have Win7x64. I'm using VMware with WinXP to run IDT without any problems.

Kingston micro-SDHC, 4 GB ,FAT32
Phone Off, Turn on with Volume Down button + Power button, then choose yes to upgrade. The ROM was renamed to K3img.bin in the root of SD card.
(I never had error with XP Mode (although sometimes hard to attach USB device to VirtualXP), just i had to lend one of my 2GB RAM, so I have low memory now - not running VXP)

I believe it has nothing to do with this build, it will look 'squashed' on all VGA and WVGA devices? At least, I had the same sort of issues on my Touch HD when using plugin's that did were not specifically programmed to also support VGA.

great job!
Maybe also integrate AAreset? I find Windows Mobile behaves a lot better with a daily scheduled reset (I have it at 06h30). I think it may be a good habit for all WM devices. Dump the exe's in /windows and a link in the system menu.
But why remove MS keyboard? Could you not just make it non-default?
PS: did you not also had MMS integrated before?
I had a bit of improvement with touch screen sensitivity with following adjustments:
I've found this in another thread but dll is the same so.. i think there is kind of
improvement - test and reply
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]
Here i added two lines:
"TouchSensitivity"=dword:8 ; Touch screen sensitivity, max sens. = 1,
min sens. = 63 - of course 1
"PressureFilter"=dword:0 ; 0 - disable Pressure Treshold Filter, 1 -
enable Pressure Treshold Filter - of course 0
I didn't tested other values as long as i sensed improvement, you could.
I also checked this:
HKLM\system\GWE\touch\filter and change the value to 0. Wait 25sec and restart.
