Extended Rom...can it be accessed?

[Little Mo]

I use to have the original XDA PPC phone. There are a lot of cool tools available to be able to "cook" your own rom and modify what programs are installed. Is there any way to do this on the 4705? I want to be able to save memory and run the latest version of Pocket Informant right from the rom.

I have not found any way to do this yet. Anyone have ideas?

You understand that even if you place the app in ROM, it will still need to load into RAM in order to execute. ROM is just protected storage that does not require power flow to maintain it; not even the OS actually executes in ROM. Unless you are absolutely certain you know what needs to be added to the ROM image to store PI there, it would be better to just install it into file store (which is also a portion of the device ROM).
