Microsoft have released Windows Media Player 10 Mobile but only to manufacturers. It is not, and will not be, available as an update or download unless your manufacturer provides an update or updated ROM.

I pulled a ROM update down from one of the OEMs whove done an update and could extract the files for WMP10M, but I'm not sufficiently up with the whole ROM cooking thing to incorporate them into a new ROM for my Blue Angel.

Anyone fancy giving this a go ?

This is a link to the ROM update for the Dell Axim x30 that contains WMP10 :

http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/exportcompliance.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&fileid=114043&SystemID=PDA_AXIM_X30&category=0&os=PPCA&osl=en&deviceid=6672&devlib=7&releaseid=R87096&p=HTTP

I downloaded this and used a tool (which I now cant find - doh!) to extract it.

What else would you guys need ?
Do you need a copy of my current ROM ?
If so, how do I make a copy of it ?

i have downloaded the file.

After extracting, i found 2 *.IMG :roll:

therefore, i try to use UltraISO or MagicISO just to extract *.IMG but it fails.

Some other experts may need to participate

OK.

I got an iPAQ rom update from HP here : http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/handhelds/us/download/22279.html

I ran it so it copied the filees onto my PC hard drive.
I then ran dumprom.exe against the d2b10110uo.nbf file and got all the files from the ROM.

I have them all in a zip file as I am not sure exactly which ones are required for WMP10M. I have zipped up and attached all the ones that look as though they are WMP10M related.

i suppose all the files has to be zip into *.CAB

and copy over to PDA and unzip it

is this all the files that belongs to WMP?

i think let the expert do some testing

Locked up after a few seconds of the "wait" icon on my PDA2K running 1.31 WWE and 1.06.02 Radio.

First you are missing many WmFiles,there are many that are not begin to Wmxxxx,but unfortunately I can't remeber others.
And I think DumpRom is missing relocation on Dll files,like discussed time ago :cry:

I thought someone had mentioned that WMP10 software is "somehow" tied into the hardware or the OS specific to the devices so it wouldnt be possible to extract the executable application and make a cab or whatever and run it on any other devices that it didnt ship with...

I'm no guru with ROMs and stuff.. but if any one of you guys manages to make this work, it will be awesome!

Good luck!
