Windows Based Programs???

[macgyver33]

OK I have looked all over this forum and done a few searches but since I don't know what i am looking for searching really doesn't work.

What I am looking for is software that will allow me to modify a ROM like the XDA dev. 1.2 that can be downloaded, I only want to take out MS messanger and add yahoo.

I am also looking for software based in windows that will allow me to create my own ROMs.
these 2 request might be one in the same and I kinda hope they are.
Also is there any PPC 2003 ROMs or software that will let me mess with it?

I have the XDAtools and pretty much everything else I could find via this site and others.

Granted I might already have the software needed but I am not going to just run the software when I am unsure what it will do, 399 for a PPCPE isn't a thing I want to experiment on when I am not sure I have the write tools.

Well anyway I feel like a major noob, but did look around the best I could for this info. Thanks to anyone with any help on this and hope to become a useful member of this forum.

I have been there and see I will create(cook) a custom ROM but I also will be learning how to hack these things with a PC or Macintosh since I know how to spell Unix and thats as far as I want to get with it. I know everything here is great and the work that everyone has done is also great and I am learning a lot in the short time I have been here and will learn tons more as time goes by. I am one of those people though that can't leave well enough alone and likes to make the OS of my machine have and do what I want. I have "hacked" many versions of windows and the Mac OS and guess with what I learn here and what I know from the computer world will do the same with the pocket PC also.

I would still like some leads though :-) or if someone else has done something like create windows based software for cookin roms that would be cool to learn about or get too.

email me when you figure out how to change the boot image on xda1, and maybe modify (add/remove) programs from rom. that will come in handy after hard resets.

the folks of this website have apparently given up on us. too busy playing with xda2 and drinking beers (look above).

by the way... yahoo dont work on pocket pc no more! they stoped THAT particular server at yahoo... i can log-on yahoo, but via other client programs, but not the yahoo for ppc.

keep in touch.


ps: love your show "mcgyver" ;)

Well I currently don't own the Pocket PC Phone Edition as of yet, I will be getting it ASAP, looking for the best deal right now. Email me at macgyver@tech-center.com and I will tell you what I can and can't do with these things once I get my hands on it and mess around with it. I have also got a small collection of software already for it. I plan ahead. As for the yahoo server no longer being there thats very intresting and I will look into it and see what can and can't be done about it.
