[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] helmi_c:
CreateOS.exe didn't work on vista...

I believe I've already explain that u can just overwrite nk.nba from Darkforce Team on \Dev\Rom replace the original nk.nba.

but, I dont think that makes any good since we hv the same build, and I'm still believe that my base is more stable, please correct me if I'm wrong on this... I've tried the rom.

Btw I've look DarkForce ROM, the rom hv Athena SAP and setting, but some are not compatible with Universal, for example the rom use Phonesetting.dll (v.5.31) oke newer stuff but didn't compatible with universal, for universal Phonesetting.dll v.4.30 and here some darkforce team registry that will make the universal refuse to change the BAND setting:

thoose setting are for ATHENA and some other HTC device like hermes if I'm not mistaken, not for Universal, these are the correct registry value (and also phonesetting.dll v.4.30 needed offcourse):

or u can check phonesetting.dll in OEM folder

So I still with my first statement that the difference is just default.hv and user.hv among roms, default.hv and user.hv (or may i say OEM App/Tweak/Extras it contain?) this is can easily modify with extra OEM pack with registry entry for more tweak/app/improvement/extras.

I dont hv time to learn all the difference, but it seems most part of the rom SAP (standar application) are taken from ATHENA device, fyi: my kitchen also base on athena device on some part as u can see most of the part are newer then any available rom (except Darkforce team rom), but my kitchen only use part of ATHENA that are compatible with Universal. thats another reason why this kitchen ROM result is better then my v1.1 rom beside other tweak that already done with this kitchen...

This is weird...If u didn't do anything with the kitchen, just runnin the CreateOS.exe after extraction, My biggest suspicion is the RAR archieve are corrupt..
