1- the ringing tone: Ring-Vision .wma (there is a space)

2- i want to disable start menu sound (if it wasnt clear)

3- why you dont make the new updating by:

-adding the new oem packages only by copy them to our kitchen, because we already edited by us. So better to just add the new edited files to OEM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Good idea. Once the base kitchen has most of the bugs worked out, that's the plan - just posting additions rather than adding to the base each time.

See post 37 for the WM5torage update.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] its right:
i did it myself ;) , really it becomes easily ;)

but check with the ringing tone names and start menu sound please
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
I'm wondering if it's how the OS knows a ringtone from a regular WMA file. Might be something to test by adding a wma file with a space to your myringtones folder and see if it shows up on your ringtone list.

I won't be able to reflash for a few days to test this out, so hopefully someone will have a chance to check it out.

As for the start menu sounds, I would suspect there's somewhere in setting where you can set / deselect sounds for different actions. I'll take a peek ASAP.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I'm not aware of anything that lets you configure them, but here's the registry key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Snd\Event]
"Curr0"=multi_sz:"Alarm2", "Empty", "Alarm2", "Default", "Empty", "Alarm2", "InfBeg", "InfEnd", "InfEnd", "MenuPop", "HWandSW", "Empty", "Alarm2", "InfBeg", "InfEnd", "InfEnd", "Alarm2", "Empty", "Empty", "VoicBeep", "RecEnd"

Each one of those names is a .wav file in the \Windows folder so you need to have those sound files. No idea what limits there are to the type/size of sound files you can use, but I'll guess only wav and probably very short in length or small in size.

Hi guys,

@Its right -

The second thing I did on the new RK built ROM was to disable Start Menu Sounds. I've run lots of WM6 versions with these disabled. The trick (thanks Dr Puttingham!) is to copy blank versions of two sound files to the Windows directory... just run the attached CAB file! I tried to add this as an option in the RK but no luck so far... it complains about duplicate file names when I run BuildOS. Anyway, here u go!

Regards,
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] its right:
Thanks man :)

ill try to copy theme to dump folder before create the rom. So if you have just the sounds please attatch them ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] JoelC:
@its right -

here are the two files from the "No Sounds.cab" file (Zipped)... I think these need to go in SYS\Shell, but check. Let me know if it works...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Maartuhh:
I just made my own rom, but I have that write calibration screen again. You suggest to include FWUPDATE in the BuildOS-part. But I can't see an FWUPDATE in the system-section at all. Now what?:) I used rev. 3 and rev. 5 to make it.

Well, I think I have to solution myself. During the CreateROM.bat-phase I got an error. Now I know that this error means that I had too much included in my rom. Anyway, great job guys! Keep the cooks busy;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] its right:
thanks man ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] its right:
is there any limit in size for adding my own apps??
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nottoosmart:
The rom itself has a size limit. Image cannot exceed a specific size. Dont know what that is, but it is there.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Kitchen 3 has the FWUPDATE installed automatically - since you want that calibration screen after flashing. Without it, your digitizer basically won't work - or be radically messed up.

So my question is if I un-check FWUPDATE then will I be able to flash this ROM and skip the screen align prompt and everything else that I would normaly have to use the touch screen to get passed?

If so can someone please share a link to the Kitchen: v2.0 rev 2: Initial Release

SOunds issue

Has anyone figured out why the sounds are messed up?

I have cooked two roms and sucessfully flashed and used them since however both times when i go to SOunds and notifications and select Incoming call, there are no sounds displayed for ringtone, and because of that you cant exit the sounds menu til u choose one (which of course u cant do coz they aint there!!)

Also only sounds Alarm2 and Alarm5 are showing, yet browsing to the windows directory on the device shows alarms1-5 and Notify (my favorite).

Any ideas?

Also i would like to make up a package or xml file (i had made one a while back) to automatically setup my GPRS carrier settings etc, ripped them out of the O2 cab in my original stock extended rom, but would like to know how to integrate it directly, instead of doing the runnings cabs after hard reset thing

Great job on the kitchen btw, keep up the good work :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mdhensley5:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
I get what you're trying to do. To add the FWUPDATE back into your BuildOS, replace your options.xlm file in the SYS folder with the one attached.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Have you changed any of the components of the kitchen? Try re-extracting the original files and try again.

If that's not it, you might be missing a VC or VB scriping component - might take a peek at Faria's or 004's thread for prerequisites.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] notyourdaddy:
you could also try looking in the log file. its should be located in the temp directory to see if anything is in there.

Matt, I've tried re-extracting version 2 and version 3. I don't have a problem using Faria's kitchen.

NotYourDaddy, I don't seem to have a log file in the temp directory. I have a folder called packages and a folder called dump.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] duke_stix:
Hey

Decided I'd voice this:

Since changing my ROM to the newer build of WM6, i decided on the Pandora 01.05

one of the BIGGEST changes i have noticed between this rom and Faria's Real thing is:

The newer Pandora Rom takes a VERY LONG time to turn on. it sticks at the third splash screen for a very long time (the green crossbow screen)

It can easily take up to a minute on this screen, before displaying my Today Screen.

the Bootloader version i am using is 3.08, havent had any issues with any other roms.

Could you try to find the source of this problem? or is it just my phone?

another thing. occasionally, if i have the WI-FI running, but not on a IE page, with the power settings set to 'middle' between performance and battery, once the backlight times out, the screen will not turn back on again. the phone is still 'awake' as the LED's at the top still follow their rhythm. only way to get out of this is to do a soft-reset. and doing a soft-reset can take a very long time!

just thought id point it out so you can work out a fix for it!

thanx, and great work on the kitchen. seems very easy to use. but i still prefer to use Molski's DEVPACK, as its simply what im accustomed to!

Add your wav file to a package. If you want it somewhere other than windows, use intiflashes

==========

if i have a base rom for another device (for example Hermes) and i want to use this kitchen for it, is it enough to put the nk rom on rom folder, then delete all system folder files and put my edited files on OEM, then build it. Any idea?? :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] dwny:
. . . . I guess no one cares . . . .
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Sorry, been away from the PC all day.

I have, but wasn't too concerned for this kitchen release (too many other issues to resolve).

It's not too tough, just grab the cab files, extract them and replace the ones in the kitchen - including the registry settings.

I'm going back through and re-tweaking a rom for my own use, and was planning in using it there. Might be a couple days, but I can post the results if anyone wants...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
I'm not exactly sure what this is, but I was under the impression that it was something with allowing you to enter text like on the old Palm pda's - kinda like shorthand. Since I've always added Transcriber, I don't know what to expect when it's not there.

Has anyone tested it with / without to see the difference?

I even included it in the base rom (Pandora 01.03)

Hmmm...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] dwny:
Thanks for the response...and yes...I'd like you to post it.

The one thing I noticed is slow or long boot-up with the roms I've created with this kitchen.

I also added HTC Audio Manager to the OEM folder but it doesn't appear on the check list.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Is it slow on all roms - base and fully loaded? I'd wonder if a stripped down version (no live, office, voice command, total commander, etc...) would boot faster. Some guys are using my 01.03 Base rom, but I never really heard if they boot fast or not.

I don't reboot but maybe once or twice a week, and don't really notice - but I think i'm more in tune to when the wifi won't connect, or the screen hangs when using messenger and rotating the screen and someone calls...

Anyway, just a thought - do you flash with an OE rom before the custom? Might be something in the extended rom causing the delay...

I'll see how my phone responds, and what I have installed. Might be a specific application causing it as well.

To show up on BuildOS, it needs to have an entry in an options.xls file that references the guid in the OEM package folder. Check out the other packages for an example. You don't need the .rgu file unless you have registry settings to enter. The other one with the guid in the name is required - that's what BuildOS uses to find the package to integrate it into the rom.

Transcriber is a text input method new to Windows Mobile. It converts handwriting written anywhere on the screen to text.

On the input options you should see the following:-

Block Recognizer

Keyboard

Letter Renognizer

Phone Pad

Transcriber (This is missing)

I have attached a "capture" of the Transcriber screen.

Re: Reminders Only Show Once

@Wizard Guy -

I'm sure you've found the answer to this already, but if not -

When you run BuildOS, look in the Registry Tweaks section. There is a checkbox for "Make reminders show only once"... uncheck this and you should get reminders more than once when you build the new ROM and reflash it.

Alternatively, if you don't want the hassle of rebuilding and reflashing, just use a registry editor on the Wizard to alter the following value:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\Reminders\AutoSnooze\AutoSnoozeMins

It's set at 0 (DWORD, decimal) now... mine is set at 2 and sure enough, my reminders repeat every 2 minutes.

;) Sorry if I'm teaching granny to suck eggs LOL

All the best,

Wifi Problems

I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but I've often found that I can't turn WiFi on (using Comm Manager or anything else). The spinning logo appears but the icon in Comm Manager remains 'off' and no connection is even attempted (EDGE/GPRS icon does not change to 'searching for WiFi' icon in top bar).

The annoying thing is, the problem is intermittent: there have been rare occasions when it's worked just fine!

I remembered that this was a problem when Faria's kitchen came out, and the solution (tested by me and working) is to do 2 things:

1. Make sure you haven't removed WifiInit.lnk from the Windows\Startup folder.

2. Edit the following registry keys, setting the value of both to 1 (DWORD, decimal):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms\HTCPreloadWifi

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms\HTCPreloadStatus

(remove the space in 'Status' above)

Since making these changes, waiting 30 seconds and then soft resetting, Wifi comes on first time, every time (as posted by others, and thanks to them all)! Some have said that this uses c.1MB of memory; I've found it to reduce my available Program Memory by about 0.5MB, but I'm prepared to put up with this to have WiFi working properly.

Hope this is of use... Joel

Voice Commnd Issue

Hi All,

Great kitchen... mattk_r and not too smart you guys did a fantastic job!!!

I like having VC tell me whos calling through my ear piece so cooked up a ROM that had VC built in and everything but the announce incoming calls works (yes, i checked the setting for it under phone and it's enabled) so i tried cooking another ROM without VC and then installed it manually and had the exact same results. Any thoughts on this? I'm really stumped as to why all other parts work (or at least the ones i've tested) but not the caller notifications.

Any help is appreciated

Thanks!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
That's a good one, since I only use Voice Speed Dial... Has anyone used VC with any other rom and it worked?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] The_Wizard:
I've used it in other ROMs... and i'm trying to remember if it used to work in the ROM i made, but I may need to join flashers anonymous... i had NTS' ROM (MyOS) on there for about a day or so then grabbed the kitchen to cusomize my own and i'm pretty sure it worked flawlessly in his ROM and I think it might have worked for a minute in the one i made as well, but for whatever reason it isn't now. I've gone as far as flashing the 2.26 T-Mo ROM then flashing a newly cooked ROM and it still won't announce incoming calls... really wierd stuff... I may put NTS's ROM back on just to see if it was working there...

----

Okay, so here's an update... I flashed T-Mo 2.26 again then flashed MyOS by NTS and had the same results. I flashed 2.26 again and went back to Core 2.0 and now its working. I wonder if it has something to do with the build version. Both ROMs i tried where it didn't announce callers (but everything else worked fine) were 5.2.1413 but Core 2.0 is 5.2.968 and it works on that one. I would really like to stick with your guys' ROM if we could just make the dang VC work for incoming calls.

If you need me to test anything thoughts or ideas out please let me know.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nottoosmart:
I dont typically get inbound calls. LOL. Ill test it now

@Not Too Smart - Thanks for the verification that it isn't just me :)

I looked in the registry before i flashed back to Core and didn't see anything out of whack... i'm going to compare the registry settings from Core with what's in Pandora's Box and maybe that'll shed some light on things...

It looks like you're using some base packages from faria's kitchen, and trying to rebuild it with a BuildOS from another kitchen. Faria has apparently set it up that you have to use his BuildOS.exe file in this case.

Dear edhaas

thanks forr fadt reply.

This errors came when i try to build my Rom pased on Pandora's Box' Kitchen with the Pandora's Box Base rom and Pandora's Box BuildOS.exe .

but when i use Faria kitchen with Faria kitchen Base rom and Faria kitchen BuildOS.exe it go ok with no errors

so i think that my machines is ok and my win XP is ok , i think it is some thing in the Pandora bas rom ??!!!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] edhaas:
Oh, well then I'm not sure what's going on. I got this error when I was mixing packages from different kitchens, including fairia's. A workaround would be to copy and paste the initflashes file from the sys directory into the dump directory while buildos is creating the dump. Wait

until after the "deleting temp" message has finished at the bottom of buildos. You have to time it right.

But since other's aren't reporting the problem, the real fix is probably to delete everything, re-extract the kitchen and start again.

Good luck,
