Ather's Dark Edition German WM6.1 with UC - Fully loaded!

[muckelmaus]

Normally new ROM in this forum are as clean as possible. THIS isn't !!!
This one is really dirty. It is ALL IN there:
User customisation,
Screen Rotation Fix,
German keyboard,
Speekerphone, (freehand phoning with a single fingertip gesture)
NET 3.5,
Opera Mini 4.2 German as Default Browser,
Screen Capture and Audio Recorder,
Phone Logging with Screen Lock Function,
HTC Home,
FTouchFlo,
SCLPC++ Cube,
Navigation,
Antitheft Software with GPS Detektion,
WLAN and WIFI, Wardriving and GPS Software.
Lots of useful freeware-apps,
and a lot of pre-installed programs and hidden features more!
The really best is a software, which is officially not released for Windows Mobile! Designed to run on at least 32MB, it is working fine on 17MB of free ram-memory!
So, please: Do NOT use this thread to ask for help on this proggis, better PM me.
Enjoy - don't talk!
Always try the ROM together with the UC. Without it, it doesn't rock, as it should!

To install:
Copy the folder Speicherkarte to a clean SD-card. (At least 1GB) and insert it into the device.

Uprade as normal, after that Hard-Reset.
Important: The RAMdisk is erased!
UC stops only one time and you have to press OK.
(No need to tap OK on the mortscript-popups)
At the end of the installation, you should set the time/date and lock the keys (if you want).
At last you can config the antitheft-soft.
Good news to all the ROM-cookers of you:
Add 2 files to the ROM and the antitheft-soft is hard reset resistend!
To all others, there is a little workaround to simulate hard reset resistens with the help of UC. (As long as the SD card is inserted on hard reset.)

[Ather]

wow so you finally did it xD, nice work and i see you integrated the anti-theft app to :)

Nice work

[muckelmaus]

Thanks Ather, you are right. It took me hundreds of flashes since my first recook on 7.Sept.08 to get this final version.
BTW do you know/use this Emulator to test ROM?

How does it work?

[Ather]

nope not possible to flash ROMs onto it

[Nokser]

ather90 Nice work :cool:

[muckelmaus]

ather90 Nice work :cool:

I´m sorry. This Mod is my fault!
Have fun. 75 downloads in less than 36 h, not bad.
Can you please give me some feedback. It was a hard job, beside my family.
There are no probs? Nowhere? I can't believe it! Feel free to ask, why I did, what I did.

Did noone find that is not possible to create new SMS?!?
Sorry, I think I cleaned the ROM a little bit to much.
I´m working on it. The reason I didn´t see it earlier is, that I didn't insert a SIM and I didn't try it 'till now.
PLEASE report bugs you find! It makes me angry, if my first released ROM is not as perfect as it could be.

[Nokser]

Ok greate work

[Nokser]

This Rom - have package:confused:

[Llewellyn]

Hi muckelmaus,
thx for your work.
There are some newer program-versions "on the markt" as the ones you used,
e. g. Total Commander or Version 6 of the Navi-Software.

I have a problem with your Navi-Installation:
First I used the older Navi-SW at your ROM, no problem.
Second I am trying to use the newer one, but it gives me an error with the map which seems to be pre-installed in the configuration. I cannot switch in the newer SW to the other card on the SD nor I can end the Navi-SW on normal way.

Can it be that the 2 versions of the Navi-SW uses the same INI-File or registry-entry anywhere?

[muckelmaus]

Can you please do not use original Software-names in this thread. I don't like judges, software companies can google, too.
For the map, you have to edit a file. Sorry, I forgot to share these files, that explain how.
They are coming soon, but I want to fix the SMS bug first.
Btw: There is a version of that program running on WM 2k3 devices, too. This version can handle 6.75 maps!
Of cause, there might be newer versions of special apps, but do they are so much better more powerful or do the have special features, that it is worth to change a working system. On the other hand, most of them are bigger and they won't fit. ROM is rare on Hima-systems. (Current G-maps is twice as big as the older)
The best example is the missing SMS capability, which is a result of cleaning to drastic.

Thanxs, for editing your post, Did you check your PM?
You didn't download the link yet.
Still working on the SMS bug fix. The fault was created between Sept. 13 'til 26 last year, as far as I examined. Now I have to compare, what I did in between version 6.1.9 and 6.1.10. Found the missing files and 2 registry data, but there is still missing a little bit.

[muckelmaus]

Yes, it's true. The bug on creating SMS is fixed!
So I release it now as Final Version. Look at the first post of this thread.
There is still a little bug, but it is not a special fault of my ROM, it's known as a bug, based in changing the language (to German).
The device freezes on calibrating the touchscreen.
Maybe some one can write a small app, .cab or a mort script to change the reg key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]
"CalibrationData"="504,517 152,249 146,786 865,789 862,259"
(Would be cool because one of my himas has a little bit funny behaviour.
Try this and you will see:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]
"CalibrationData"="584,499 291,239 291,763 880,757 881,241 ")
I hope, you all will have fun.
On questions or problems, please PM: "I will do my very best Ms. Sophy" "Scoll"

Cool, there was one complete download, while writing this post.
Please post your opinion or bug detections.
It is quite easy to get rid of unused proggis on the ramdisk or to save some more space in main memory.
If you are not sure how or you want to insert your own cabs, but don't know to edit cabs, it would be nice to hear from you.

[muckelmaus]

Look at the first post, if you want to use the left-right gesture.
Have fun. Now everything should work.
Without it, all your brainpower or the help of the search-button would be useless.

[muckelmaus]

There is still a wrong link in the System folder. Backup funktion is corrupt.
Download and extract the patch attached to the first post.
Copy the folder Patch to the root of the SD card and start the included Patch1.mscr to fix the wrong link.
Fixed the missing MMLauncher in a new Patch, today.

People in this forum never, ever have any drug experience or practical knowledge of other consciousness expanding substances, than our Himas, I swear.
Nice, that you like it.

[ElCroata]

is this rom compatible with the BACKPACK??

[Ather]

Backpack hasent worked in Wm5 or Wm6.x only works in Wm2003

[muckelmaus]

is this rom compatible with the BACKPACK??

It is compatible with the extended battery and it should be compatible with the vga-feature of the backpack.
There is a file of the Net2.0 folder missing in \Windows, sorry, I didn´t find out which one yet.
A small workaround was to copy the file(not the folders) to \windows, but this wastes memory. I´ll patch it, soon, it worked for me.
I was a little bit to radical in cleaning the ROM to get space.
I still hope, that someone finds a way to write a working driver for the cf-slot of the backpack, because I saw a working 6.1 ROM at the Magician forum by some hero without a warning or any hint that it is possible.
So, hope dies last.
See you.
BTW: ather I´ll by you a cheap new used hima, because one of mine has funny behaviour, caused by a 3600mAh battery. PM for your address, to send it.
PS: MMlauncher still doesn´t work. Sorry for that, I think it´s a hardcoded link error.

Well I tried it twice now. One and a half minute, with no problem. Strange, but pls try it again.
I hope you like it. There is a little link attached to use a small app.
Rename file by deleting .txt,then copy it to: \Windows\Startmenü\Programme\System
on running systems and/or to: \Speicherkarte\ExtROM\Setup\Windows\Startmenü\Prog ramme\System, if you flash or hard reset next.

[friday399]

WORKED !!
A very very nice package. :D

Thanks for your effords

Yes! Finally, you did it. The network wizard changes the background picture, and the right softkey.
You could change it with the app SoftKey to Datei Explorer(/windows/fexplorer.exe) and the background to the last shown picture in the /windows folder in Bilder&Videos, as it was designed or keep it, as you like.

Hello all, I am a new user of a Qtek 2020 also known as htc himalaya.
I was wondering if it would be possible to make an english language version of this? I have been looking for a fully loaded rom and this one seem great! But only if you could make english language please.

[muckelmaus]

Of cause, it would be possible. In fact, it isn't that difficult, as you might think.
As my ROM is based on Master Ather90s Dark Edition, there is a perfect WWE version.
Take his kitchen and remove the files and folders I removed to get the free sectors you need to integrate the oem packages you need.
It took me eight month to build my rom, because I tried to solve all issues, but there are always some left.
Mostly I worked on it, till deep at night, and I'm sorry, but I guess my family won't let my do it again.

[ahorn]

the onscreen keyboard sucks. is there any cab for himalaya with is like the keyboards at the diamond series?

[muckelmaus]

The keyboard supposed to be as the cab attached, but I failed.
Maybe you'll find, what you search for, here:http://old.buzzdev.net/downloads.php

[muckelmaus]

Here's an update to the navi-software:http://www.mediafire.com/?m3yozzzydyt
Use the nickname in the filename as passw. 7.915QVGA is working fine with 8.30 maps!

[orti]

For a brief moment I thought I've bricked my dear Hima. But it seems to work. It's cool and I'm now even more proud of my Hima.

[muckelmaus]

You're welcome. Nice to see you here!
For all with problems with the navi.
Delete the folder /ramdisk/programme/navigator and run the attached .cab afterwards.

Hi Muckelmaus, call me blind: I'm searching for the correct settings in boot mode because the update is not running properly on my Himalaya. First of all I had to copy the SDAutorun to the Windows folder, but the promised programs are not installed from the SD Card.

Hi Muckelmaus, call me blind: I'm searching for the correct settings in boot mode because the update is not running properly on my Himalaya. First of all I had to copy the SDAutorun to the Windows folder, but the promised programs are not installed from the SD Card.

Ok, It's a quite old rom and it is running stable on my device, since I did my hard reset almost one year ago.
In February I helped another new guy to get finished with it, and it worked at last.
First read the stickies about flashing and the memory expansion.
With WM 2k3 SE on the device it should be like this:
Unhide then unlock EXTrom. Save and then delete it. At last lock again and do the repartition.
Download all parts and put the content of the folder Speicherkarte on the SD card. Do the same with the Patch. Insert the SD card first.
Then flash and finish with a hard reset. Lean back. It should run alone. You have to tip OK only once, as I remember.
Good luck to you and have fun.
PW is "1234" at first boot of antitheft-software. (Should be inserted automatically, sometime it doesn't work properly) Remember to change it and do not forget it! On every failed login attempt, it will cost you a SMS!!!
