I'm stuck on this PTT issue, and don't know the 'estimated time of arrival' (sorry for the acronyms :)).

If I could get a working build with PTT disabled using the fixes that are out there, I'd be sitting well with this setup. However...

I just put the PTTFix.cab to run in the PreConfig and returned the original keybddr.dll to the OEM/Drivers folder, but still no response from the button.

Verified it was mapped properly in Settings/Buttons.

Suggestions anyone? Ugh!!!

what happen to the chinese build is it still newer than the att build ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
Haven't been following too closely, but you essentially need to have PTT enabled (PTTService, etc. running) in order for PTTFix to do it's thing...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] thefunkygibbon:
what is PTT?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] donpizi:
hi @ all

When I build a OS with this program, is this sitll in english? Or can I get it in german, too? :confused:

I know my english is very bad! ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Mr.Schinko:
what about the 3G Dialer? If i choose it, i do not have the 3G Dialer.

So it does not work. It's a strange Dialer, i even cannot install the Kaiser like 3G Dialer from this Board.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] robotician:
Hil, donpizi

As far as I built, that was ENGLISH.

But I think you can build in GERMAN too.

The solutions is out there.;)

(actually I am not interested in whether it is English or not, but clue is in this forum; Search and you can Find.)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
Pandora K. doesn't care what language the OS is. You may freely use it to create your own custom ROM.

For that, I suggest you to download the Core Kitchen or Hypercore Kitchen for Hermes by anichilius.

Download one of the WM6 in German (in your case I think it is from T-Mobile). Dump the contents of the ROM.

Then using Bepe OEM creator, create the two needed folders (OEM & SYS). Then, from the Core Kitchen, use the tool to create the ROM and XIP folders.

Put all the folders together, add the tools from Pandora kitchen, make some clean-up in the SYS folder, add your packages or packages from Pandora OEM folder, and you are good to go to compile your own ROM in German.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] thefunkygibbon:
is it right that the exe's etc from the OEM files are all left in the /Windows folder when they are put into the other locations like /Program files? or is the plan that you leave and run everything from the windows folder?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] andreasy:
BuildOS is incompatible with Vista? I cannot even start it. It always given the Vista message "This program has stopped working ............"
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
All files from the kitchen a stored in the Windows Folder by default. At the moment, as as I know, there is no solution on putting files elsewhere, rather than just copying them from Windows to, lets say, Program Files. But still, the originals will be kept in Windows folder.

Hopefully there will be a solution for this question.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
It worked fine for me. Check for ID duplicates. In most cases this is the problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] andreasy:
What do you mean ID duplicates? (Where should I look for them?) I just downloaded and extracted the zipped folder and executed this file as-is.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
very strange then. may be mattk_r can help you.

ID's are the names of the .rgu and .dsm files. If, for some reason, they are they same for two packages (folders in the OEM), then the program will fail to start.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] thefunkygibbon:
without being funny then, surely this is very inefficient and you would be better off just running cabs from a the extended rom ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
yes, running from the extended rom is the best way to install packages without bloating the windows directory, no disputing it.

However, if you are using the big storage rom - it is not an option.

Also - if you don't want / are not comfortable with creating your own extended rom and setting up the build to launch it on first boot, adding them up front is the easiest.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
thanks - I'll back up a bit and give that a try. I had never used it before, so I wasn't aware of the requirements.

Edit: sure as poop - it works :) thanks!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Uploading the next build (9.1). Here's the summary:

Redid the PTT enable/disable structure to include Sleuth's PTT Fix (resolving beam issue - but by default there's a PTT icon in programs, even when it's disabled. It can be removed from /Windows/Start Menu/Programs if you really don't like it).

I've flashed both configurations, and both work fine. The only other issue is that the Notes Record function gives a certificate error and won't open from button 5 hold. Other programs work fine. I'll try to find out why, but I suspect it is a limitation of the PTT fix because arguments are being passed to the exe.

Other than that, video dialers are not native to this build, so don't expect them to work right away. There's one floating around I heard did work, and I'll get it posted asap.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] whistler4ever:
Push To Talk. Its an extra button the Cingular 8525 has AFAIK.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] its right:
did you get PTT working??

if yes please attach the package.

and please if anyone has this service, is it really working on the PPC??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I extracted the PTT Fix cab and move the dll's around accordingly. Otherwise, to the phone PTT is installed correctly (thanks vp3G!!).

Here's both packages (enabled/disabled) - all the other PTT files remain in the OEMApps folder and .rgu.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] its right:
i will use it on wizard, so the files which in the OEM Apps is it included on this package??

if not, please attach them

so many thanks for you and vp3g
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Here's what I know goes in for PTT, but there may be other dll's and such that are not easily identified...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] its right:
thanks mate, i will check it and hope some one has this service to get a real test.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MistaRip:
ok, i tried 9.1 and now it installs a bunch of programs that i did not check.. i even tried it again and it did the same thing.

some of the programs that install, even when unchecked, are the 1 calc, pocket streets, pocket tobo...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
There are some apps that just can't be mapped with PTTFix and I believe Notes is one of them. Pretty sure that infonugget is buried somewhere in the PTTFix thread.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
LOL!!!! CRAP!!!! Those are not supposed to be in there!!!!

Please delete them from the OEM folder... :rolleyes:

I'll upload the fixed files... :o

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Few updates: Posting the OEM/SYS (again :o ) with those packages fixed that install automatically (bad options.xml file) Up in a few minutes.

Added an extended rom to post #2 that installs the contents of the Preconfig plus Windows Live v33.0600 without leaving installation files in the windows folder (helps bloat). Ran it and it worked fine - even the custom cabs.

Started a thread on the extended rom. I think if it's used well (like the paragraph above), it is a really good thing. Ext ROM Thread
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I tell myself - once this build is good to go... then when it finally gets there - BAM! A new OEM ROM is found... OCD to it's best :D

Naw, really. As strange as it may sound, since I have the time to devote to it - I actually enjoy this stuff ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Just a FYI, I'm adding additional preconfig options that only install the WAP settings, but also launch the extended rom too.

See the first posts for info on the extended rom if you want to give it a try.

No music/audio in sleep mode.

hi all,

I built a couple of images using kitchen 7.1 with ROM 3.61 and 3.62. When I'm playing music using Audio Manager or Windows Media Player and I put the phone into sleep mode using the power button, music/audio will continue till the end of the track and then stop. When I take the phone out of sleep mode it continues to play the next track.

I managed to half cure this for Windows Media Player by disabling the filesystem cache but this has helped for Audio Manager. I say half cure because now when Media Player plays the next track in sleep mode but when it gets to the end of the playlist it stops, and when i wake the phone up again it starts playing automatically. (I DO have repeat set in Media Player) Also it will occasionally do this in the middle of a playlist, and it seems to be when playing the same tracks when it does it.

Any Ideas anyone?

Why Filesystem Cache?

All music is on my SD Card. the few files I have on the phone seem to play ok. Correction. It does this for one of the files on my phone too.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
Never had such an issue. I am actively listening to music over BT through WMP and all the music files are stored on the SD. Truth is that the music randomly stops playing for a second or two, and then plays again from the moment it stopped. But this doesn't bother me, as it happens once in 10-15 minutes. Plus to that all my file cache, and other settings, are set to default.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hiffy:
I think the default settings are for filesystem cache to be disabled but i installed Advanced Configuration tool with the ROM which enables it. I may try the new kitchen tonight and leave Advanced Configuration Tool out this time.

I'm sure one of the earlier roms I tried was working perfectly fine. Its not so bad if it doesn't play past the end of the playlist but really annoying when it does it in the middle of the playlist. have to keep taking the phone of my pocket to wake it up for a few seconds and then put it back to sleep again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I've heard of the AC causing a bunch of issues. It's not a bad program, just not designed for this setup.

If you want to check your theory, leave the registry settings as-is and try a build. I think you'll find what you were looking for :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hiffy:
Cool... Thanks for that. I'll try that tonight and post how I get on.

Is there anyway to have an option for setacoustic.exe in the preconfig.txt?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
If you know the command that is required (like for HSDPA - EXEC:\Windows\SetHSDPA.exe /Enable), you can add an entry there.

Is it a run once and you're done, or does it need to run every time the phone starts? If it needs to be run every startup, you can just put a link in /Windows/Startup.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hiffy:
hi,

I tried creating the ROM without AC like you suggested but it doesn't seem to have worked. After I flashed the phone it did the auto configuration and I noticed that the last thing it installed was Schap's Settings. how can i remove this from my ROM image?

Thanks,

Hif.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Which carrier are you using? If it's the Orange or T-Mo. it's in the PreConfig folder under /OEM and you'll need to edit the PreConfig.txt and remove the line that says to install it.

I don't keep up on those packages unless someone asks, since I don't use them.

3G dialer.

hi matt.

i just can't stop flashing my hermes. everytime you bring something new, i'm always tempted to do so. it's like an addiction already.

police should arrest you or something. :)

BTW, any fix for the 3G dialer? i was able to skin my dialer, transparent buttons, with the pic of my daughters in the background. i would love to keep it with the video dialpad.

thanks. and it's nice to hear that you have the time to spare for this passion. makes us enjoy playing with our toys. please keep it up.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Funny you should mention the police. I started worrying (again) about OS licensing and other copywrite stuff... Occasionally I'll get a twinge of "is this kosher?".

I'm going to see what I can do for a video dialer, but without a 200 or 300, I can only see if it opens with 2 black windows, and am never really sure if it works. I was just playing around with the extended rom some more to try and nail down what it really can do.

Anyhow, I'll be back on my config manager for a while. I have a little bit more xml file handling to deal with. Hopefully I won't get hit with another OEM release before I get finished :)

In an earler post a few days back, someone posted a cab for a video dialer, which they said was the only one they had gotten to work. Might scan back to see if it's still there, as a temporary fix.

Vid Dialer

Yes - it was me that posted the link to the vid dialer : http://wmblack.info/videodialer -so here it is again. I asked Fun_Key how he managed to merge these files into his rom and he used romdonalds kitchen. I don't know how he did it unfortunately so over to the experts for a solution. Someone must have a solution on how to integrate these files for your kitchen............. I'm just not quite up to it yet:) Instructions are included in this attachment but here they are again:

BACKUP FIRST!!!!!

1. Install Part1.CAB then Soft Reset

2. Install Part2.CAB DONT Soft Reset (press cancel after it is installed --> then go to the next step)

3. Install Part3.CAB then Soft Reset

YOU MUST FOLLOW THE ABOVE EXACTLY TO THE LETTER OTHERWISE IT WONT WORK.

Respect to Jasjamming for these files.

hi ,

i want to cook-in the ability to read CHT characters

now i get a wince.nls from chinese rom, a chinee font, and a reg file

normally i have to put these 2 file into windows directory from sync, replacing the original NLS file, and run reg. the job is finished

so if i wanna make in cooked into the rom, is that i remove WWE NLS from SYS folder and make CHT NLS, font , and reg into a package and use it??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
2 ways to do this - create a duplicate package with these changes and add an option.xml file to each, or just change the existing one.

To change the existing one - for the file just swap out the file before cooking.

The reg part is a bit more tricky. You need to identify where the reg settings are in the .rgu files and replace them with the entries you want to add. As an option, if the entry is in the SYS folder, adding an OEM package with the reg file will work as well because the OEM entries overwrite the SYS per the order of the hive being built.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Toni - if you're getting the 'ugly' 3G icon, it's probably because a cab was installed (such as a dialpad) after flashing that overwrites the phcanoverbmp.dll. The kitchen base only comes with the new, nicer ones. These are referred to the "battery icon" in the BuildOS screen, and one must be selected.

As for the pin pad, is that the HTC Phone pad? If so, I think I yanked that from another phone dump - like kaiser or something, but I may be mistaken. Regardless, it is from an official rom but I'm not sure what you're referring to.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
By default, the calendar is mapped to Hardkey 112 by the following registry setting in OEM/OEMDrivers .rgu:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112]

@="Calendar"

"Open"="Calendar.exe"

The action of the softkey is linked to the corresponding hardkey.

If the link calendar.lnk does not exist in the folder /Windows/AppButtons, you will get an error. But... Every rom I have built the calendar key has worked, but then I don't install Advanced Config because it causes numerous issues with the rom. By coincidence, if you don't install AC, do you still have the problem? I've flashed hundreds of times and every variety of build - but never with that program. Something to consider anyway :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:

Vid Dialer

It works but needs to be included in the kitchen set up rather than a "post" install. It tends to slow down your phone after it's been added. According to Fun_Key it's because the post install is a sloppy process. But - yes - it does work.
