This is not an amibtious rom but its my first release.
The Rogers Rom seems to be newest of the wm 6.0 series and has some interesting changes, Call Display being one of them. Being on Rogers in Canada I decided to release a cooked rom based on it. I left alot of it original but upgraded a couple of things and added a bit.
I noticed that some of the software rogers released is different than the ones in Alex's kitchen kit.
For example the 4.08 camera in rogers is 4_08_28875_00 Alex's kit has 4_08_28288_00. This may indicate that some bug fixes were made but I am not sure.
Its just another ROM to try.
Removed:
Windows Live,
Cyberon Voice Speeddial 1.2
HTC Home
Bubblebreaker
Solitaire
Rogers bmp, wallpapers, some of the awful ring tones
Windows Update
Upgraded:
.net 2.0 to .net 3.5
SqlCeMobile 3.0 to 3.5
Added:
Quickmenu
GlossyBlackbars
Some themes I made
A few extra ring tones
Pocket Sudoku V.9
Synchrotime V0.95
Sleuth's UC Compliancy
I did a small trick where I took my animated.gif and called it startup.gif then simply copied it during the cold boot. End result, if you want to replace it with your own animate.gif just copy over top of the file with your own as it is not part of the ROM.
Also uploaded seperately a nice Symian Splash Screen and the original Rogers radio extracted from the Rom.

Thanks to Alex, jscepi, jugglerlkr, Dutty, Schap, for the kitchen and all the other utility and tutorial writers and xda Kaiser cooks. Your tools and tutorials have made this an exciting addicting site.
I have learned alot from you all.
Anyhow feel free to download and try it out, expecially if you are on Rogers.
Send me any feedback you have.
Download here.

Thanks. I will try this out.
Cool bro, I've been waiting for someone to use the Rogers rom as base since we got a hold of it. Thanks, and I'll give it a whirl tomorrow and post some feedback as soon as I can.
So far the ROM seems pretty quick & clean. I have not installed any apps yet so I will report back again.
But, the radio seems to be ROM dependant. I have tried it with a few other WM6 Roms with no luck.

is the ROM dependant on this radio?
Rom dependant on the Rogers Radio?
I cannot say, I used the radio released with the rom. I have not tried other wm6.0 radios on it yet.
I wouldnt suggest using the radios for the wm6.1 roms such as the 1.64.xx or the 1.58.xx I would doubt they would work.
When I installed this custom ROM, it gets stuck at the end of the customization "Running SDAutoRun.exe".
I do have a SDConfig file in the root of my memory card.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

If you read the package list you would see Anryl WM 6.5 ROM includes Manila2D and not the WM6.5 Interface. You arent running 2 Roms you just have the splash screen from your old Rom stuck on your new Rom. I would assume the Rom you flashed doesnt have a custom splash screen but im not sure as I have never used it and it doesnt say in the package list. Read *HERE* about the splash screen and how to change it.
Hi,
Please take some time to read up about ROM flashing on Windows mobile devices.
If you had done you would know that a NBH image file that you flash to your device has many parts. One of which is a Splash screen. All these parts are optional (you need one part of course).
If AthineOS had a splash in his NBH file but Anryl did not then the splash screen would not change between ROM flashes. This is the same for the Radio, if Chef A includes a radio, but Chef B does not then the radio won't change.
Follow mskips tool for flashing your splash screen and you'll be back to normal.
Thanks
Dave
okayy =) thanks guys, sounds better now! I was afraid to have screwed during my flashes and have two roms on my cell ahahha
That happened with me when I tried Abu's v15 & then tried Uto's 6.5 beta. But that doesn't mean you have two ROM's. Don't worry thats really doesn't make your device a small wonder either.
question answered, thread closed.
Hi,
My name is Baron. I own a HTC P4350 PPC. I was wondering if there is any port of the Original WM 6.1 version for the Herald without any customizations. I have been trying different versions of each cook's 6.1 versions but I don't know. I like them but I guess I like things to be original lol. I really like the TouchFLO, its awesome. But if there is anyone who can help me out or even let me know how to aquire 6.1 and teach me how to port it would be nice. Maybe I can be a cook or something. But I guess that would need the help of all of you. I am familiar with flashing Heralds at the moment and of course last year I was flashing Motorolas with Motorola's custom OS not the ones with WM. Anyway thanks for your time and I hope I can be seen as a cook around here or something. Oh, don't forget about the original WM 6.1

There was never an original WM6.1 for the Herald. You'll have to cook your own ROM using a WM6.1 base and port it using a stock 6.0 Herald ROM without any kind of customizations except for a lot of the customizations needed to fix all the bugs that will arise from simply sticking both bases together. The original ROM tends to be slow and buggy, though... What about the original ROM do you like? There might already be a ROM that has those features.
Thanks for your fast response. I knew there was never a actual 6.1 release for the Herald, I was just wondering if anyone ported the original release to work with a Herald. But with what you said about it being buggy, I never thought about that but I guess that would make sense, but I have seen some custom ROMs with 6.1 and flashed them myself to see how it would work and these 6.1 versions were not bad at all, especially with TouchFLO. So I guess my question is, how were they able to cook a 6.1 version? They had to have picked up an original to modify it if I'm correct. As I said I would like to learn how to cook as well so if anyone has time to help me learn at least the basics that would be appreciated. I can learn more myself if I know the basics.

I have a few threads dedicated to teaching how to cook. It's just the basics but it's enough to get you started.
Every 6.1 ROM here has been made by porting a 6.1 from another phone (there is no "original" per say as new versions are released all the time.) using the OEM of an original HERALD 6.0 ROM but modifying it heavily, making a custom XIP (kind of like the kernel and all the stuff related to it) from both the ported ROM and the older ROM, and then adding their own apps and tweaks.
In my case, I also do a heavy amount of stripping of useless files.
I'm kind of on the same page. I'd love to find an unmodified wm6.1. I've tried a couple of them, and they're all great, but they also have a bunch of stuff loaded in them or different versions of apps. I'd like to find a wm6.1 load that JUST has the org wm6.1 apps in it and nothing else. No mods, no alternative apps, skins, etc.

then take an original WM6 and behappy with that...belive me ivansstripped wm6.1 ONLY have tweaks that are really useful...to correct the crappy MS waste....
If you do NOT wantto correct that crap...go with an original WM6...it the same
same here
I am also looking for this...
I am VERY new to cooking and have not been able to manage to Dump any of the 6.1 ROMs. (I must be missing something)
I would like to start with an "original" ROM that I can play with and try to build my own custom ROM

I guess I'm having a hard time understanding what "original" means. If you just want something clean and stripped that you can add whatever you want into it, then any of my ROMs will do.
To ivanmmj
I guess by original I meant base 6.1 ROM but since there is not an official 6.1 base ROM for Herald I was just trying to figure out how the other cooks were able to get 6.1 in their releases so I could cook up my own 6.1 for me and possibly upload it for someone to test or use. But it's ok, you already answered that for me but maybe you can point me in the right direction. I've been hearing that a Kaiser 6.1 ROM is easy to port to the Herald. But let me know how you were able to port it. I read some of your tutorials and I'll definately give it a try as soon as I get the time. Possibly this Sunday or so.

If you're looking for a bug free base, you might be better off just using one of my ROM as a base (since I tend to release the kitchen files for my ROMs.)
I have a post somewhere here about SYS and XIP porting. Find it and follow that. It works fine with kaiser ROMs.
Thanks! I don't know if I have tried your ROMs yet. I'll give it a go.
From what I have been able to gather (not very much) is that some ROM have their RGU files removed, making it imposible to Dump the ROM. When I try to open with the Package Tool nothing happens?

Actually, some ROMs are even encrypted...
In my case, all my ROMs are released WITH the kitchen files in case you want to make your own version. All that I ask is that you mention where the base came from since the base took a long time to make.
I don't know if this is the right place for this post.... and forgive my ignorance again.
I just can't get the Kitchen to work with any 6.1 ROM. I have tried JustMe and I follow exactly the same steps as with the original ROM. I just can't get a poputated OEM or SYS folder. What am I missing?

...Original rom?
There isnt a true original rom. Theres a base, which cannot be loaded on herald unless is ported with original 6.0 (which is ment for herald).
So. basically it looks like this:
Base 6.1 + Original 6.0 = herald 6.1
(original) (port)
you cant just use a base for a rom. you can port it, then extract what u want and dont want though (which theretically will turn yer ported 6.1 into an "original" one)
I managed to port a 6.1 rom following ivanmmj tutorial, quoted below.
" How to port a SYS folder
1. Open your old SYS folder and copy the .VM and WinCENLS_WWE folders into your new SYS folder
2. Go to your old SYS\Shell and copy shell32.exe and shellres.dll into your new SYS\Shell
3. Replace the old SYS folder with the new one. "
but I only did step 1 and did not do step 2. It worked and seems stable.

The Shell32.exe doesn't always have to be ported, but if you port a ROM that comes with a different dpi, you need to use your old shell32.dll (unless you want to manually convert it into the proper DPI...)
I have an old Kitchen and a base 6.1 build with lots of customisations and 3rd party apps. I really want to get WM 6.5 on my phone but want to build it myself to get my own apps and customisations in there by default
What is the best kitchen and are there any base 6.5 builds I can use? I remember trying to decompose a 6.5 ROM a while ago and the kitchen couldn't dump it sucessfully? I haven't tried in a while so want to know where to start (again?).
I did search and there is a lot of fragmented information...
Andy
i have the same problem. i hope someone can help.
i have searched some time now for a 6.5 base rom.
Hello guys,
I want try cook some roms and i need a hint for a 6.5.x kitchen?
Anyone here can help me?
Kitchen
Look for osKitchen and prekitchen
osKitchen for extracting shipped ROMS and also for creating your custom ROM
prekitchen for converting SYS structure

and where?
Chef Central as noted in the sticky and new builds are available, numerous chefs have kitchens too kitchen files + apps + old builds, a good search will yield results.
