it is advisable to use a more recent version of mkrom, which can be found at http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/romtools.html
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JimDavis:
Thanks for the pointer. I'm using the scripts from there now and having a few problems. The splitrom.pl is finding an overlap in it's checkforoverlap subroutine and exiting at that point.

I kow that could be any of a thousand things but is there any one or two things it's more likely to be? Thanks - Jim
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
you should be able to see from the output what memory ranges overlap.

most likely it is the operator rom, or the bootsplash image.

you have to put the correct parameters in the params file.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LordDavon:
Not with the versions I am using. Use this:

dumprom nk.nbf -4 -d files >nkinfo.txt

I just can not get the default.fdf right.

I used dumprom on 4.00.xx rom. tried 05 11 16 21.

1. download the latest dumprom

2. used -4 option

3. tried both on windows and linux

but the extracted default.fdf is only about 17k large which is not right.

any hint here?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pine:
well, itsme pointed out the default.fdf should be about 17k large.. However, still get into trouble.

downloaded the romtool, use 4.00.11 rom image. followed the instruction. I could cook up a good rom without putting any files in the "files" directory. xda works fine

however, when I put in about 3M files in "files" directory. all the rest not modified, XDA won't boot up with the cooked rom. froze at the screen shows the image and the rom version and radio stack version number.

I got from the kitchen that I can put 3906k files inside this rom. is that right?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LumpiStefan:
This depends on the settings for mkrom.

What settings do you use?

Stefan
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pine:
what kind of setting? I assume the params file

I used

wincever=4

start1=81740000

size1=00040000

start2=81b00000

size2=003c0000

startbmp=81ec0000

startop=81b00000

otherwise, I don't remember there is any place for setting. I used 4.00.11 rom, which i suppose does not include the t-mobile stuff

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rheuh:
Hi all,

Would it be possible to use this program on my Orange C600's ROM, to slipstream it ? Orange has included several programs into the ROM, like Orange Help, which has almost 1Mb of bitmap images I never use. Can I delete these files from the ROM, and localization files (German, Spanish .MUIs and so on...) in order to gain some free space ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] HyperMalac:
Hi there!

Here are my (maybe stupid) questions:

- Can I use mkrom under WinXP, of it is useable only under UNIX?

- I've a Magician, can I use this prog for editing Magician ROM, or it is just for XDA II and III?

- I read that is not so userfriendly, and I'm not so familiar with filestructures, and programming, just a little bit. So can I edit my ROM without causing damage in my Magician?

- I know I can edit registry, and remove files from WinCE ROM, but I cannot find any manual, about how to use this program. Is it a manual somewhere on the net?

Please reply to me! I wan't to edit my slow, and lame ROM :D :D

Hello all!

I am stacked with my MDA Vario in boodloader mode and I don't know where to go from this! It was not my intention to mess around with my device, as I am very far from advanced users concerning those devices, but I had to after a total crash of my device because of a software I was trying to install.

Can somebody give me step by step advice how to continue?? Or could you tell me where I can find this info?

Thanks everybody
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
Hi ermoscow!

Ok, first, you should post questions like this in a separate thread. It has nothing to do with ROM cooking (unless I misunderstood, you did not try to change your ROM) and there is a greater chance someone will notice it.

Second: are you sure you are in bootloader? To exit it all you have to do is soft reset your device. Just stick the stylus in to the little hole, then release.

If the device still won't boot up, you need a hard reset. If you do this you will loose all data and programs you installed on the device. Only the OS will remain.

If I am not mistaken to hard reset your device you need to hold Power + camera button while pressing the reset (little hole).

Hope this helps.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VTS_Tibi:
Hi Guys,

I bought an HD7 from UK with a broken screen. Just installed the screen, and tried to switch on the phone for the first time. It was stuck on the HTC logo. So I pulled the battery out, and tried to reboot, but now it vibrates 7 times and does nothing more.

BTW. I made it to boot into bootloader, and it shows the attached screen.

I tried to flash a stock NoDo rom with GoldCard, but it fails at the first step, saying:

"Radio.nbh - FAILED"

I've used the GoldCard on two other HD7s in the past, so I guess the problem lies elsewhere. Now I try to download an other original O2 UK rom, and see it it makes any differen or not.

Any clue about what could cause this? And how to resolve the problem?

Any clue about this problem?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VTS_Tibi:
A bit of update about this. Put the phone in a bag and put it into the freezer for an hour. After I switched the phone on, and it WORKED! Loaded up the OS, checked my emails and so on, but after around 5 mins (when it warmed up) it shut itself down, rebooted and vibrated 7 times again...

So it's a heat issue.

Also noticed that if I leave the phone for a while It loads up into bootloader, does what I want, but the more I use the worse it gets. First it freezes, then won't even switch on.

Is it a CPU failiure?

hey!

i just put a rom on my phone storage and after i flashed it, i deleted it with a root file browser. the file dissapeared from every filebrowser but it still uses 2gb of space. i already formatted the sdcard with my computer but still 8/10gb... what can i do?

/solved!
[Focus General] pranay27:
I agree that each phone might behave differently. But did any one had relief from random reboots after loading any custom rom?

I have tried to format the phone, once even without the memory card but still face the reboot. Some times it goes into reboot loop. Searched on the internet and made changes to the reserved space in Zune as well. But no luck :( Only thing haven't tried is to load a rom !!!

I have been facing random reboots earlier like once in a day. But now it reboots more frequently, mostly when browsing or switching between apps that connect to internet.

Want to get some suggestion before loading any custom rom that might brick or make some features unavailable in the phone(like i read in other threads).
[Focus General] FocusHelp:
Some pointers

Some useful pointers

1. Always flash a ROM for your rev. # example: only flash rev 1.3 roms to 1.3 rev. phone because flashing a rom for a different rev. WILL COMPLETELY BRICK YOUR PHONE

2. Always reset phone before and after flashing to prevent further errors

3.Always Backup phone

Im 17 and I have flashed my phone with 0 errors.. If you have a rev 1.3 phone I strongly recommend flashing Clean ROM .. link here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1528984
[Focus General] pranay27:
Thanks for the info. The phone is working fine since last 4 days, i might wait for a week and then go for the custom ROM. Meanwhile, would wait for others to add their experiences or ideas !!!
[Focus General] prakash386:
Hi. Try turning off location services. At least in my case, it was the major cause. I had restarts once or twice a day, now have twice a week. Also try the clean rom. It is much stable than the other roms in this case.

Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express
[Focus General] Htc_wannabe:
In addition to turning off location services, disable closed apps from accessing internet. You can then re-enable the apps one by one to determine which ones may be causing a problem
[Focus General] pranay27:
Turning off the location service seems to have solved the problem to an extent. Would use the phone for some more days and then will decide on loading the custom ROM as i am little hesitant to change the original ROM.

Anyways, thanks for the replies guys :D
[Focus General] prithviramsingh:

Hi, My phone has never restarted in particular and i've flashed all possible roms and they all generally ensure a good performance .. May be a h/w issue like my wife's focus which we have returned. Try asking for a replacement if possible.

I have had it for a while, phone sucks but that's besides the point lol.

Yesterday my phone just shut off for no specific reason. I battery pulled it, tried to put it into recovery, ftm, nothing even turns the screen on.

The only thing that happens when I plug in the battery is the phone gets super hot on the back real fast.

Also tried using the ZTE software update tool, but it will not detect the phone due to its incapability to enter FTM mode...

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeeshanonlyme:
How much can the phone be underclocked while maintaining the stability of the system?

What would happen if i set Max freq to 600 Mhz?

What is the best thing to do to save up the very last bit of juice in the battery for emergency situations where i would only need the phone and message facility? Besides switching off Bt,wifi,sync.

Im asking because i was wondering if underclocking "too much" saves a substantial amount of battery when my battery is quite low and I am "hours away" from a charging port!

And is there a way to change the carrier name on the notification drop down to whatever we want.

Sorry if i sound noobish or if a similar query has been asked before

Thnx.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Underclocking the CPU dramatically isn't going to gain you a great deal in the way of extra battery life because:

1. Unless you are heavily taxing the CPU (complex 3d games etc), the biggest drains on the battery are the screen and the radio.

2. If the screen is off, the phone will drop the CPU frequency right down anyway.

The best way to get extended battery life is simply to carry spare batteries!

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bushako:
I think 600mhz is way too low and counter productive or for that matter anything less than 1ghz. The phone will lag alot and you'll have freezes. You'll probably end up using up alot of the battery life trying to get tasks completed. You could try leaving the stock clockspeed 1.6ghz, set minimum cores to 2 and slightly undervolt to -25mv, leave the gpu setup to its default 533mhz and also undervolt to -25mv using a kernel that supports stweak app. Then run an app called Stability Test for 10minutes to check for errors.

Also I tried Go Power Master, which can be assigned to disable certain features once your battery hits critical low levels.
