Hi jiggs
I use you provided the hex editor try to make it to 8M but I can't found the string .Would u mind upload the image file to your original post and let us select !For a newbie just like me it is very dangerous to change by myself. Cause I try to change my O2 mini to be a brick before

Thanks.

After 8mb, there is no noticeable performance upgrade. After experimenting, 4mb is most suitable. 2mb creates a lag.

[jiggs]

Yup! will include options.

sorry... it's not cab installable. We have to reflash in order to set it to a new pagepool. Don't worry, I'll include it in our next release...

Aw, man. And I just flashed by phone. >_>

Too bad we can't put the WM2003 RAM slider back in there, eh? <_<

WM2005 has a different architecture compared to wm2003. Besides, it's persistent storage we're enjoying in wm5 which wm2k3 don't have. So, the slider will definitely not work.

:o :mad: how can i do the atom life wm6 rom?

The Atom Life has a different format. First of all, it uses MSFLASH50 format and it's XIP is compressed as SRPX. Although, I have the tools to break it down, I am not sure if it will reconstruct it correctly. If you want, you can try...

On the other hand, the ATOM Life has a bigger program memory... you can only gain 4mb max for so much trouble... of course, still your choice.

Here are the steps in accomplishing this task:
1. 'Cut' the first 12 bytes of FLASH.DIO (atom life ROM)
2. Save it as FLASH.BKP
3. Process the file using Breakdown.bat batch file
4. During pause... DO NOT CLOSE THE BATCH FILE -> edit flash.dio.part1.xip with hex editor
5. You can now search the hex values and edit it
6. Save your changes and proceed with the batch file
7. Restore the FLASH.BKP by inserting it back to FLASH.DIO
8. Flash your new FLASH.DIO

Your Hex Editor must be capable of editing large files. If it doesn't work, just flash back the original ROM. As I've said, I haven't tested the reconstruction part of the tool because I don't have Atom Life to start with. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
