 | Thank you dmitrygr,for your work ,but I wonder if this rom can be used on my Chinese Simplified T|X, either? I hate the pre-installed CJKOS (Chinese Japanses Korean Operation System) and pocket tunes , quick tutors , is there any rom tool currently available for PALM TX? Or, you just wrote your own tools to edit the rom, didn't you? I am always looking for a tool to edit my chs rom , and share it with my friends.

| Sorry, but another question, is there any tool available to pick the original rom from my tx so that i can restore it later, you know,softwares like jackflash and rom crafter are too old to use. I mean if it fails during my rom updating with your rom , how can I restore it  ? | |

You can use the Palm WPA Update found here http://www.palm.com/us/software/esu/ to restore the ROM.
I have switched between the 2 ROM at least 4 times now. | |

| Minor problem...
I went to download the custom ROM and got an error message :
Not Found
The requested URL /file/TX2.ROM.zip was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.palmpowerups.com Port 80
Any idea when it'll be accessible again ? | |

| Yep! I got the same error now,
And also Dmitry, would you please quote in the first post if you fixed the Drive Mode problem?
You'r Great Dmitry! Without you I wouldn't use my T|X half of what I'm using it now!
(after the upgrade its also "MUCH" faster, even though I don't know why!)

| Dmitry, what about making A ROM that has "NOTHING" in it! only things that it must have for the palm to function, and all things that you cannot install manually,
But all other stuff? whoever needs them can install them to the RAM,
Maby like this there will be no more requests on this thread? :-)

It could be that the inclusion of unlicensed or questionably licensed sofware in your rom: (drivemode - unless you wrote this yourself, voice memo and netfront) make it too questionable for front page inclusion? Dump the unlicensed software and your mod should get the recognition it deserves!
Kudos for your programming ability, but you really ought to stop dancing in the lightning when it comes to software licensing.
The inclusion of netfront, drivemode and voicememo in a TX ROM are a lot like standing knee deep in salt water on a grounded copper plate while holding a 9 iron above your head on a golf course in a lightning storm. | |

| Well I took the plunge and other than Resco Backup not seeing my backup sets, everything went well. I'm a little miffed about this. Thankfully NVBackup saved my butt. Does anyone know why my backup sets would not show up?
Anyway, well done, Dimitry!
I know this is already starting to sound too much like work with all of the requests, but I am wondering if you can add some of your own freeware apps (like brightness fix and perhaps even grafitti 1.99), as well as ButtonsEx.

| Wild Celt,
Hello again! I wonder, when you said it doesn't see RescoBackups, does that mean the old ones, or even ones that you tried to make under the new ROM?
What version of RBackup are you using? I'm using 1.35.4
While Dmitry seems to have made a wonderful new app (thanks Dmitry, I really miss jack sprat & flash fm my T3).
However, it would feel almost like walking in public without my pants on - not to have access to my backups! What if I had a major crash? I even have old backups, just in case; in the past it has helped - had a database file that was corrupt & only an older version was good - even backups don't solve everything.
TIA,
Eli

I keep a rotation of three backup sets. I tried to restore the backup set that I created just before hard resetting. Upon install of the TX2 ROM, none of my backup sets showed up. I have a hard time believing they are linked to the actual ROM, but I don't know of any other explanation. I didn't try a new backup with the new ROM for fear of overwriting any backups. After I did a selective restore with NVBackup (which wasn't current), my Resco Backup sets appeared. I did a "diff" restore to restore the files that had changed since my last NVBackup, er, backup. It still missed a few files, but it was manageable. Since the multiple restore, I am able to backup using both programs without incident.
I've been doing a bit of searching and could not find any info to help with this issue. I was using 1.35.3 at the time, but I just saw I missed an update and have since installed 1.35.4. | |

| I too took the plunge this morning Followed the directions in post #1 and everything went off without a hitch - I was even able to save my bookmarks for NetFront during the selective restore.
Drive Mode works great!! Wish I would have know this was going to be available ... could have saved me ~$25 (buying CardReader and CardExportII) or I could have just given the money to you  Just wondering though - I've read that on the T5 Drive Mode is supposed to show both the ROM and the Card as 2 separate drives on the PC... I only see the card. Not that it's a big deal.
It's nice to have NF and Filez in RAM. I'm not crazy about the background pictures, they're a little dark for my tastes (but I know that I'm probably among a minority here). I can add my own images so no big deal.
Thanks for all your hard work - I'm sure this was no easy task. I appreciate you sharing this with us.
@ Wild Celt - I see my RBackup files - however, I've already restored with NVBackup and didn't check to see if RB was working before the restore.
