ROM for iPAQ 210/2xx (preferred wm6.5)
 
Hey guys. I'm not gonna give you BS about my knowledge on the PDA/mobile world. I know nothing about flashing or cooking, and i am slow to learn at it. So i come asking for the help and support of the many chefs on this site.

I'll be plain and simple. There are a ton of requests by people for a FAST and stable 6.5 ROM for this 6.0 Classic PDA. It has amazing hardware, but it's plagued by firmware issues, and HP dropped support in less than one year. It's a dud unless someone makes a new ROM for it.

Here's a link. Please read it.

Once you do, please explain what this means for us. And if you need to know more, please either PM or post here. We sooooo badly need your help, and if you did accomplish such a goal as to even START a new ROM for the iPAQ, then MANY people would be more than happy to make donations to the site and to the chefs. I know money isn't really the reason to start cooking, but money will help to make up for the time necessary to build such a ROM.

ANY HELP WILL BE SUPER APPRECIATED!! We need a kitchen! We need a good WM6.5 build to work off of! We need to figure out how to flash this stupid machine! (current method that MIGHT WORK but not successful yet... is load linux, backup ROM, modify, reflash through either linux bootloader or ...not sure how else.)

Someone help us crack it open. There are a ton of testers waiting to try some ideas. If you can load anything into a XIP, then it will make it even easier for people to help test. Let me know. Thank you, chefs!!!

bump ....

any progress here? I'm looking for a wm6.5 ROM which would have all the standard programs, same as the original wm6.0 provided with the PDA.

thanks so much!!

You can build one with the latest (old style) kitchen by globalbus.

It will build CE 5.2.0 build 23016.5.3.0

I do not think someone posted a ROM wich is like the original OEM.

I am playing with the kitchen to include some updates and other languages. As long as time permits.
