Hey guys,
I extracted my ROM and was wondering if anyone here was interested in obtaining it. I bet some people need this, so enjoy Next step when i have a bit of time and some concentration, is to learn cooking
I did a dump of my HTC Touch Pro Stock ROM which has the latest ROM Update that HTC Has Released Recently for the Middle East.
Took the RUU_signed from this latest HTC ROM Update: _HTC Touch_Pro_RUU_Raphael_HTC_ARA_2.01.415.3_Radio_Signed_Raphael_52.58.25.30_1.11.25.01_Ship.exe
Information about this stock ROM:
Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
CE OS 5.2.19965 (Build 19965.1.2.3)
Multilingual Support Installed. If you flash this your ROM interface will be in Arabic, you can of course manually change the options to make the interface in English but keep Arabic language support on (Reading/Writing) and you can even disable the multilingual altogether.
Uses (MOBiDIV Multilingual Support Version 3.0 Build 416 Gardenia Package Number: 32)
ROM Version: 2.01.415.3 WWE
ROM Date: 02.23.09
Radio Version: 1.11.25.01
Protocol Version: 52.58.25.30U
ExtPkg Version: 2.1.415.2
Before i post the files , i need to ask the experts which files are safe for me to post here. As in, are there any precautions i have to take i means of a certain ROM has an internal serial/activation on a certain software which may cause problems if i share them? Yes, am totally a noob in flashing WinMo phones, we all start somewhere
The stuff i have are as follows:
Part00.raw
Part01.raw
Part02.raw
Part03.raw
Part00.raw
The below are two ROMs since i created the RUU_Signed.nbh using two methods, after checking their hash, they had different ones, so i publish both :
Using instructions from Here - (Using e,b,space,c,a in RaphaelKitchen.CMD)
Result: RUU_Signed.nbh MD5 Hash: 512ea7b4435b923a3cd6a687eec79dcd
Thanks to jcespi2005
Using instructions from Here - (Using e,b,space,c,b in RaphaelKitchen.CMD)
Result: RUU_Signed.nbh MD5 Hash: 6958d00c322a91b4d679509ae4a9a02f
Thanks to Angelusz
ROM Dump Experts, please inform me which files should i publish. (Again i am asking this in case there is some kind of serial numbers/activation codes...etc). I might at any time switch back to this Stock ROM and would like to have stuff work normally
Now, I'll go ahead with HardSPL and try some cooked ROMs from the lovely chefs here in xda ( Soon, I'll join the kitchen ), any suggestion of a Cooked ROM to try out?
Wont ask what is the best ROM since there is no such thing. Basically, what am looking for is the following:
A ROM with the latest updates and Manila installed
A ROM which would allow me to read/write Arabic after i install some cabs i have my hands on right now
Lots of nice tools and programs that most probably we all use
And of course, something better than this junk slow Stock ROM (Speed / Stability)
Any Suggestions? Am considering: PROven ROM WWE 3.1 21042 out of a fast search on XDA.
Thanks to everyone in the community for making XDA such a wonderful knowledge base for all of us to learn from.

Dear Amnya,
did you buy your phone from UAE? if yes, you don't have to go through this hassle. Just use your S/N on HTC site and get the latest ROM. I'm from Egypt, I have the Egypt Arabic ROM which is a Fiasco as the GPS is disabled. I've been waiting for you for a loooonnnngggg time
By the way, about a nice fast ROm, consider also NRGZ28's Energie ROM ver. 2.0 32609. It is great and Arabic works flawlessly.

Hey mate, am glad you found me then Now regarding the phone, yes i got it from the UAE and it had no Arabic Letters Imprinted on the Keyboard (Which is GREAT).
As for your comment marked in red above, i know this, and i actually flashed my mob with that official stock ROM, the point is that i DO NOT want to stay on this stock rom and want to try using Cooked ROMs and maybe even start cooking my own ROMs for this great community.
But before flashing, i thought I'd better backup my current ROM just in case HTC releases an official windows 6.5 upgrade for free or something, or in case my phone dies and i would need to place things back to factory defaults/updates.
You mentioned that you are using "...the Egypt Arabic ROM which is a Fiasco as the GPS is disabled..." i did not quit understand what you meant there. Why is the GPS disabled? :S Is Fiasco a Cooked ROM that doesn't support GPS?
Cheers, and PS: I am still waiting for experts to assure me on what to exactly upload. Cheers

Thank you for your recommendation, checked the ROM details, and i pretty like what i see and since you say that it works with Arabic flawlessly, it makes me love it more Lets see what that Ferrari has to offer
Would you recommend that Microsoft Voice Commander or the standard one? :S What does that MSVC actually differ? i never used this MSVC.
Cheers
GPS is banned in Egypt, therefore the HTC original ROM for Egypt is without GPS drivers.
can you by any chance post the HTC ROM you flashed?
MSVC stands for MicroSoft Voice Command. It simply does what it says, commanding the phone by voice, never tried it and couldn't care less. I would recommend the other one: CSVD
You will like the Ferrari, it is great.

A huh, never used it, will try the MSVC and see how it goes, though i doubt i will ever use it, my mobile is always silent and i like quietness, i doubt i will be talking to my phone, hehe.
Thank you again for your recommendation, will flash my ROM once the download is done
Cheers

I would i just need to understand if i face any OEM/Licencing or anything of that sort if i do publish it. And a small question, wouldn't it help you if i upload or link you to the update that HTC released recently?
And btw, the flash i dumped is an NBH file, how can i create an executable so i only double click when i need to install it?
I do understand that to flash the nbh file i will use the kitchen tools and cab files, but wouldn't it be best if its a simply executable?
If anyone knows about this thing i would appreciate it
Cheers
If you have the latest Raphael Kitchen then in the tools folder you will find an exec file called RaphaelCustomRUU.exe.
Put this in the same folder as your nbh file and run it. Follow the instructions.
This will put the rom on your device.

Thanks for the valuable info But i was asking on how to create an executable. Not important
Now lets focus on the main stuff Which files should i upload here? in means of my own safety of loosing valuable serials/activations pre-built in the ROM and stuff like that? Or is that irrelevant in WinMo?

Read this especially points 6 and 7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=440
Serials and activations are only there if you put them there. If you can't remove them then don't include these particular programs. If you look in the SYS or OEM parts of the rom in the kitchen you will see most programs used and if you know what you are doing you can edit or remove them.

I did not understand the reason for you pointing out i read those two points :S Who said i want to post wares? I was asking about something else. i have a Stock ROM after a hard reset, i did the Flash Dump and got the original ROM off of the phone, then created the new ROM file using those files i extracted from my phone in addition to the RUU file from an HTC ROM.
That produced a file, i am asking, is it safe to upload that file for the public to benefit from? OR would it harm me somehow, one way or another? For example, in the stock rom the Multilingual support by Mobidiv is installed and it never asks for any activation, which from my understanding means that it comes registered with the phone or with the rom, something like that. Now wouldn't me posting that dump here bad for me mobidiv and so on? Or its a safe thing to do?
Thank you

As I understand it CIT MOBIdiv have an agreement with HTC so that for this program you are probably ok to include it. Google Mobidiv and see what is said.
The reason I gave you that reference is that I didn't know which programs you were refering to and if they had been paid for seperately from your phone and therefore would be ware.

I see Well not at all, I was referring to stuff that HTC preregistered for me
Thank you very much for your continuous update
But i still did not get my answer, what files should i publish here, and is it totally safe?
PS: Am on the new energy ROM 32609 and DAAAAAAMN! ITS FAST!!!
My first flashing went great and the ROM is wonderful too, what a lucky night
Cheers
Amnya, you can direct me to the link of HTC but to download it I need your S/N on the back of the phone behind the battery (unless you already uploaded it somewhere and have the link). If you don't feel confortable to give the S/N away for any reason, please upload the original ROM. Almost all original ROMs from HTC are here somewhere or another in every forum (links of course) without the slightest problem (legally I mean). And there will be no issues also regarding software copyrights.
Glad that you liked the Energie ROM, enjoy....

Hey mate, will post you the link to the document later on tonight, currently i am at work One problem though, Arabic is NOT supported, so what should i install to make it support reading and writing arabic? Actually am only interested in reading
Can someone post a link to the needed software or update? I tried the ARA_Patch.cab that HTC released then drew back after the latest ROM Update, but it did nothing. So any ideas?
Cheers
My answer to your problem
http://www.4shared.com/dir/18171659/bed506eb/Arabic.html
use these files as follows:
- Copy the files in Arabic folder to your phone any where
- Install each file in main memory in the same sequence as numbered
- Do not restart when any one of the files installing prompts you to do so
- Only restart when finishing the last install
- Thank me plenty

1 - partly to try and make the phone faster/easier/better looking - partly because they enjoy the challenge and exercise of creating a new design.
2 - purely a personal choice - as long as it doesn't reduce the stability of the phone, only you can chose which is best - for you.
3 - no idea what that means. At a guess, you mean "are there any common tweaks?" - in which case, the answer is "Yes - lots of things - far too many to list". The simplest answer is that any Android phone can use "apps" - they are basic computers that can run programs to add all sorts of additional functions or replace existing ones. The more complicated answers is - you haveto use the phone and if you think something is missing or could be done better, only then can you begin to look for a solution to that "problem".

I think that CHROME is availible only for android and iphone not for wm
Android Version
Thank you for your prompt reply.
So my only solution to run Chrome it is to move to Android
Will you please advice me how difficult it is to install maybe a dual boot
in an HTC HD2.
I´m not an expert but I think that I can follow a set of steps to implement the Android 4.0 .

ANDROID vs WM
Thanks I understand that ´s better to stay with my own OS
byut how can I solve the problem with the browser´s I have the original Internet Explorer and the Opera.
But there are times that I receive a message from sites due that my browser

Some tell that is UC browser (support flash) but i use opera 10 with flash suport (again use the search button)
Hey all, thanks for taking the time to read this
I have a question about browsers....
I have tried many different browsers (mostly the popular ones) and have tried to access the music on my reverbnation page...unfortunately it will not initialize and wont play, I have no Idea why, ive tried changing the user agent to desktop, ipad..etc etc
I did some research on line and on these and different forums but I can only find very very old bits about it. can anyone tell me if they have an android browser that will play music on an artist page on reverbnation and if not, is it reverbnations fault or something missing from android browsers?
if anyone is willing to help and needs more info, please feel free to ask for whatever details you'd like.
first of all... is your android device has flash player? Since android 4.1 and up don't have flash player supported so maybe that's the reason why you can't play music on you browsers.
Hi and thanx for the response..I'm suing a custom rom and flash was installed on it version 11.1.115.17
What is the android version of your custom rom? What is your android device anyway? I'm using a Lg Optimus Black with a custom rom too and flash doesn't work for me either so i think that custom rom just doesn't support flash. Try searching for keywords like "flash player for CM9 on .....(your device's name)" or "flash player for .......(custom's rom name) on .......(your devide's name)" or something around that on google and maybe you can find the solution.
Sorry i'm not that much help but maybe other members of XDA have solutions for you. Wish you luck...
Where is a good one, my HTC HD2 has no SD card right now and I wanna just flash it out of MAGLDR and play around with WinMo a lil bit but everything in the development area is nothing but dead links from dead file sharing hosts.
probably going be energy rom then, still active links in the HD2 wiki & an archive of energy rom versions
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_HD2#ROM_Development
Artemis was good too but that not suitable for US T-Mobile unfortunately .
I prefer the older build 23699 of Energy , super stable & with some tweaking very capable even today.
What HSPL do I need to be on for that? RN I'm still on 2.08 aMAGLDR (The newer rebuilt one) wished there was a Windows Phone rom for this, I know theres NAND android.
HSPL2.08
Have WP7.8 roms if still have working links, it ok due to huge amount of WP restrictions overcome in custom roms but still too limited for my liking.
Yea hook me up even with "Rom-Name-v1.zip" and I'll google search that for a mirror if they're NAND's.

off topic: does anyone have any app/games for winmo 6.5?
Aps yes, games little. the PS games emulator was quite good once setup but i'm not much of a gamer .
