Anyone successfully run different ROM on SL5600?

[derek4100]

Hi, I look for a different ROM to install on my SL5600. I wonder anyone out there successfully flash different ROM on the SL5600 and run it successfully. There are  many different instructions on flash different ROM out there. Please let me know your recommended ROM and Its instruction how to Flash it successfully.

Thanks for make thing interesting.

derek4100,
Presumably you managed to unbrick your Z? If so, congratulations.
What don\'t you like about the stock Sharp ROM?

wizzard, hi,

thanks for reponse. I try to update the ROM last time to see the difference and posibility for updating on SL5600. I fail and my previous SL5600 is shipping back to Sharp for repair. Now I have a new SL5600 just come in. If you have a method on how to update a new RON successful. I am happy to give it another try. In addition, I wonder do you have a method to update a new kernel to SL5600.  I try compile the factory kernel again with more selection of feature on manuconfiguration and update it to my SL5600. Is there a posibility.

thanks again;

I haven\'t tried new ROMs yet. As for the kernel, I\'d suggest you go for the precompiled one by Tumnus that can be found in ZUG. If you do a search you can find some threads regarding this. Sorry I cannot give you any advice re compiling as I am a novice in that area.

InfoAddict,  Hi, Base on your message of success on update the OZ 3.3.6-Pre1. I wonder are these the right file: ipks.tar, initrd.bin, zImage, and updater.sh sthat need to be copied to CF card for updatingthat you used. I mean do I need the file ipks.tar with other three file ( initrd.bin, zImage and updater.sh) in the CF card to do an update to OZ 3.3.6-pre1. Please write back to me with your convienent time.

Thanks in advance.

Derek, yes those are the files that you need, place them in the root directory of your CF card flash the rom like you normally would and you\'ll be good to go. Dont forget to read the thread listed previously.
