I had the same issue... The graphics are not there and the font is white. If you tap the screen it will give you the X and then you can align the screen.

After that though all the images will be terrible and the screen display will be terrible also.

I am not sure why my build did this so I am going to try again eliminating a few things till I find the issue.

Basically all the skins for everything are missing.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] chunkymonkey:
I only get the white screen after pressing Messages to exit WM5 menu (Enable KITL etc) - but I think I know what the problem is in my case (probably not in your as I don't get the 'setup' sound): in the DOS box as the ROM's being created, the processing of files stops for me whilst processing files beginning with 'P'.

Tried lots of combos down to bare bones for it to run at all and no combination I've found will make the ROM-builder process past 'P'.

Any ideas anyone?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Dwazzue:
did you download the multi-Part file? If so maybe you did not get the second part or there could be an issue with the files you extracted?

Just an idea....

the white screen means crapped rom, it happens if you exceeded the free sectors, be careful you may brick your devices

well i had the same problem - white screen!

Xplode, in 1st place congratulations for this excellente rom, 2nd, is there anything that we can do to fix or repair this crapped rom or reset this sectors? i (just) upgrated my blue angel with 3 roms, this is the third!

Help us out here!! hehe

Windows Live

Here is OEM package for the latest version of windows live

delete the old one in SYS folder and place this one

this is QVGA, WWE version only, i have removed mui's and VGA resources for saving space
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xplode:
@all that can not cook a rom, when you start bat file at the end of the rom building operation it shows how much free sectors you have, it should show at least 0001, if it show something like FFFFFFD13 this means that you have exceeded free sectors and you will get unbootable rom, remove items to free up space(i mean oem packages, or select just needed packs from the BuildOS.exe)

@all that have problem starting BuildOS.exe Download .NET Framework 2.0

@motisu the cab that anilkaparthi posted is exactly the same as OEM_FileSupport

except i havent included HTCMIDI.avd, which i posted as cab, maybe the kitchen skips this pack for some reason
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] motisu:
@Xplode/anilkaparthi - I installed the cab and MIDI now works!! It appears that there may be a bug in the Kitchen generator. Good to know.:)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] motisu:
I am uploading the BuildOS log file from my last run. There are quite a few messages in it that it could not find various RGU files. Is this normal or could this be the reason that the MIDI files and the Live didn't work?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xplode:
it is normal there are not rgus for some SYS packages
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] motisu:
can you think of any reason why BuildOS would skip installing the filesupport package? Now that I know what the problem is, its no problem to install the cab during EXTROM execution. But I am curious why it should happen.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] GerardNL:
Same problem here

I've the same problem. It seems to be related to the amount of (virtual) memory. If I have a fixed swap-file of 512mb, the BuildImgFs programs stops around files with the letter P.

If I extend my swap-file (or 1 or 2 gb), the program is running longer and makes it all the way to a file called "wmvdmoe.dll". However, at that point, it shows that about 1.2gb of memory is in use.

I can't say I know exactly what the BuildImgFs program does, but based on the name I have an idea. Since the FileSystem it's compiling should be somewhere around 64mb, it seems rather strange that it's taken up 1.2gb.

I've compared the BuildImgFs file from a different kitchen (UNI) and that one seems to be same file. I've also tried to disable other programs (Anti-Virus etc) as much, but the result is the same.

Hopefully, someone has a solution for this problem, since I'm very interested rolling my own ROM.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] efjay:
xplode, I am using just the default kitchen options with no OEM addon packages and still get hex numbers for my free sectors. I will deselect more options and see if that works.

Edit: after replacing the Options.xml and deselecting 3 options and not selecting any addons the free sectors is now showing correctly.

Edit 2: Flashed rom and Windows Live works fine now,
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] chunkymonkey:
Half-finished processing

I'll try with more virtual mem now - although I can't think why it'd need even more, I've been surprised before so let's 'ave a go. And obv'y, after not bricking my ppc with sev goes on half-baked ROM, won't be trying to install it unless it's visually suggesting to me that it's gone through the whole list of files it should've whilst processing.

I'm convinced it's not a lack of free sectors as this still happened with a 'barebones' version with so little in it it wouldn't have ben useful for anything - still stoppped at same point.

I'll let you know how I get on.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xplode:
I have 2 gig's of ram so the building or the rom does not concern me much

also side note, the new Windows Live version consumes a little more space, i removed Firmware update (it is useless until our operators lean to use it)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] schen:
Hi, explode

Out of curiosity I download your ROM Kitchen v2.0, modyfying it here and there and use it on Himalaya. I can create ROM fine but I have not tested it yet. One thing that puzzled me is when I try to edit the option.xml in the SYS folder the GUI's listed in the options.xml seems to be a mess. GUI's listed in the xml but cannot find the corresponding package in the Sys folder. Could it be that the kitchen that you uploaded still use the original option.xml from the WM6 kitchen?

Anyway, atleast the v2 Kitchen work with Vista. I dont know if it is with Vista problem or the kitchen problem but the dsm file seems to not getting update during BuildOS. Previous kitchen with CreateOS did update the dsm file everytime.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] anilkaparthi:
I did some more testing and found following issue with the default OEM_FILESUPPORT package. With default oem_filesupport folder I am not able to play following file types.

amr

m4a

mid

wav

I tried adding Mi_MediaSupportv2.cab as oem package. It did not work. I received file exist error. After reading Xplode mail this morning I tried again by removing oem_filesupport folder and adding Mi_MediaSupportv2.cab as OEM package. Now i can play following files.

Sounds great to me.:) If I wanted to add it to BuildOS as an checkbox entry, what would I need to add to the options.xml file? Or would I not have to add anything, just put it into the OEM subfolder? Could you post the entry?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xplode:
about modifying the kitchen for himalaya it is easy, in rom folder paste himalaya base rom which you will use, in folder rom/xip paste your default boot.rgu (for example for previous kitchen) you can use entire sys folder, and you should remove OEM_SAP and OEM_Drivers, and add HImalaya SAP and Drivers, or you can modify my SAP (remove WLAN Support) and Use Himalaya drivers pack (can be used from previous kitchen)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xplode:
well i have tested what you have said, and you are right about one format (i state this on my rom)

Hi xplode,

When CreateRom.bat started it showed (0001). The changes I have made from default is:

1. From System, I unchecked transcriber & games.

2. From OEM, I unchecked all except HTC Camera

Also, I have upgraded before using R1, R2 and R4 of your AKU3.5 Roms which have more installed so I don't know why I am getting the white screen because I have less on the ROM I'm trying to cook. Any idea what else I might be doing wrong? Thanks!

i have found where is the problem with files support in the kitchen

it is in MSD_MHUB_APP folder in SYS, they have some same registry entryes and thats why the oem ones are skipped. i am trying a builded rom without that folder and will keep you posted

@sicz3r0

You have to press the puttons before radio, rom and protocol versions appera in the down right corner, otherwise reset and try again
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] sicz3r0:

hold it before reseting, hold it before protocol version appears, hold it after protocol version appears...

nothing.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] sicz3r0:

ive read the downgrading manual, but i cant download any roms, because there were none at the ftp server...

but the i downloaded the update from o2 germany...

therefrom i extracted the nk_.nbf

after frickeling around for 5min i finaly got it back to win2003...

the only problem i got now, is:

1.the extendet rom is away (doesnt bother me, i think this o2 branding makes it a lot more ugly)

2. bluetooth doesnt work correctly anymore (works fine for a minute, but then the bt software shuts down and tells me, that my bt license has expired??)

take a look at this Link.

/confused
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] zard:
Xplode,

What I am about to explain is just my guess, maybe might not agree but it's ok.

With the roms from Helmi, Logout, Banziak and yours, I had noticed something common that BT and Wifi will have problem starting if I have a few Today Plug-ins. The other common thing is that with your Kitchen and Helmi's Vanilla Kitchen, I was able to have more stable BT and Wifi. This was resulted from me deleting some of the OEM packs that I don't use. This gives me the impression that trying to use up as much of the ROM storage is causing the unstable BT and Wifi.

For those of you who are experiencing BT and Wifi problem, why not trying unchecking some of the OEM packs that you don't need and build the rom.

I had indicated earlier in this thread the OEM packs that I had omitted. At the same time, I have only 3 Today Plug-ins, PhoneDashboard, BTand Wifi and cLaunch. Within cLaunch, I use only 3 tabs, with 2 tabs having 6 applications and the last tab with 4. When I had 4 tabs, BT and Wifi became unstable.

Hope the above makes some sense.

BTW, I have quite a number of applications installed like ezdial, spb time, spb diary, spb imageer, resco explorer, resco photoviewer, resco audioplayer, tengo thumb, sk tools, Phatpad, Lexisgoo English dictionary, Lingvosoft English Chinese Dictionary, SK Today Commander, Wifi Companion, PIE Plus, Xcpuscalar, Styletap Launcher, Spb GPRS Monitor, SPb backup, Virtual Pool Mobile and Bejeweled.

Cheers!

you have a point, thats why i do not use any today plugins like claunch (i mean tabbed heavy plugins) my today screen is almost clear of plugins, and the speed is good

but this problem is WM common if you fill out your screen in WM3003 it will start to crash in WM5 it is similar but it does not crash but slows down a lot

Was indeed the issue. Was (am) using a laptop with 256 meg. Had assumed previous virtual mem settings (wich I'd set myself) were adequate, but doubled it and created sev roms successful since. Process must simply use more than I thought. (Mind you, I do use Norton and it easte memory like Elvis ate burgers.)

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] motisu:
I just wanted to say that after working with this ROM for over a week, It is definitely by far the most stable and fastest WM5 of any of the ROMs that we have been using over the last year ( and believe me, I have tried and used EVERY one). I really don't think that there is anything missing from it other than the BT/Wifi turn on problem. Other than that, it is perfect.

My greatest thanks to Xplode for giving it to us.

Download Error - gotta zip?

I have downloaded a bunch of stuff trying to upgrade my SX56 - wallaby and my SX 66 - but to no avail as all the RAR files report broken file headers on every extraction. Does anyone have this data unpacked and willing to pack it all in .zip files? That seems to work much better for me. :confused:

Also, I would greatly appreciate it if I could get the upgrade ROMs for each as high as they will go. If WM5 is available for both that is great, but I suspect that the SX56 can only go to 2003se. Please feel free to correct my erroneous information.

hi

thanks for the nice post Xplode

i have a little prob.

when i go to read the message the number of receipt in the header(sms, mms, ..) does no appear only the name.

i tried SMSDR_fix_2.0_beta, but nothing happened.

i searched the registry for a key or value (im not good at), also nothing.

so any thought.

i also need a favour

i asked for the OEM Phone package from "Logout_WM2K5_5.4.10_WWE_Fix1" if you please.(its nice, easy and fast, and not compatabile with smartdial but who cares")

thnkx alot
