Hey guys, just a quick question.

The 3.62.3 Rom, does it have an Ext. Rom?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
It is only the ROM folder of the kitchen, and is independend of the extended rom.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I think that's when my 8525 is up for upgrade too :cool:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] allan1:
so does that mean we can add an Ext. Rom?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
When you run CreateROM.bat, if you've used 3.61 or either 3.62, yes. If you used 3.60, no.

Archive of all current hermes radio roms.

I am currently uploading ALL versions of the radio ROM for hermes boards to my site. There's 20 different radio ROMs from 1.16.00.00 to 1.54.07.00.

These files are already processed and ready to include in the building of a ROM via Pandoras Kitchen.

When you get to the step when you build the NBH file, point it to the Radio.nb file that you downloaded from my site (After you've unzipped it of course). When you flash your new ROM to your device, the radio ROM will be changed to the one you included.

The address is: http://www.crc.id.au/files/xda/Radio_Roms

Second Splash Screen Gone

hi, am not sure if this issue been addressed already.

if startup animation is present, my second splash screen does not show.

by the way, i used my customized animation.

is there a limit to the length or size of the gif file?

would it be possible the the animation is too long that it would take the secondary splash's space?

thanks.

Bluetooth headset VC issue

Hi there.

Built my rom and all is working well, except BT with VC. I can answer an incoming call, and hear the call fine, but if i press my BT HEadset button, it triggers VC but to the onboard HTC mic and not the headset one. This was never a problem with the wizard. Also notifications are spoken thru the hermes and not the headset, again this didnt happen on the wizard.

Any pointers would be appreciated, i noticed an updated buttons settings for VC in the 1.3 OEM zip but it states unreleased, is this the fix i am looking for?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I don't think 1.3 will fix this. Do you have a copy of VC from the Wizard? I have some old software from when I played with it, but I'm not sure its the same.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Thanks for posting them! If it's okay, I'll remove my posts of the radio versions and add a reference to yours - since I'm maxed out on characters I can have it in, I have to keep deleting things to make room... :rolleyes:

hi all,

excelent work... what to say...

a favor: i cant seem to find a cab for Pandora 3G dialer, as ive just flashed my phone, re-installed all the programs and would like to try the dialer out without reflashing.

thanks alot

P.S.:

question:

is it safe/OK to restore all stuff (including programs) via SPBBackup, after a new, clean flash OS update?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chymmylt:
Maybe with the next release, it's time to start a new thread (and link back to this one for reference reasons)? This one has become quite large - that way, you can reserve the first 10 posts for your needs so you'll have plenty of room for everything you need! :) Just an idea.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
You're right, and I should. I suspect that I might get one more release before heading over to the Kaiser platform, and having a clean thread may make it easier for new users still using the Hermes to work with it. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I built the 3G dialer from a number of different sources, mostly from the T-Mobile and AT&T OEM roms and the 3G dialpad themes. I'm not sure who to ask, but you should be able to get a cab made for it - I've never tried to make cabs myself :o

I'm not sure about SPB, but I use PIM Backup 2.5 every time I reflash (which is quite often) and don't have any trouble.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Quakie:
BT DUN

Hey Mattk_r. Just want to bug you for a bit with a quick update. Did you get a chance to look at the BT DUN in your 9.5 package? I just reflashed to 3.62.3 and it still isn't there. I tried to lift it from 7 to put it into this one, but still no BT DUN.

Thanks very much!

:cool: Quakie
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] webpain:
Thanks. But, PIM Backup only saves contacts/messages/calendars etc (meaning all databases) and not the registry, thus, installed programs will not be available after a reflash... So I would have to re-install everything (apps, games, tweaks, even on the SD card). On the other hand with SPB backup, if you do a full restore, the registry as well as the whole file structure is restored, and thus everything looks and works as it did before. Im just not sure if its the way to go on an OS update, as registry enrties on a new OS may have changed or have specific tweaked values.

In addition:

Could somebody please create a cab for Pnadora 3G dialer? I saw some screenshots and it looks awesome. Im using Kaiser 3G dialpad now but it seems to have some minor glitches.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] aadadams:
It is not advisable to restore a backup from one rom to another rom. Unfortunately, reinstallation of some applications is a consequence of the game we we play. The key to custom rom id that you can load many of the apps you use into rom eliminating the need to install post flash.

Edit: If you have apps installed to te storage card then you can cheat a bit and copy the startup and programs shortcuts to a backup folder on the sd card and paste them back in after a flash.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I'm not on my laptop - so if you could, can you look in the folder for that package and find out the executable name is and try and run it directly from the /Windows folder? If the program runs, it would be a simple initflashfiles fix. If not... Please let me know either way.

I've never used that app to know how it works.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Agreed. My head is spinning with all the complications that could incurr...

Now if there was a way to capture the registry settings and files for specific applciations only... hmmm...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Any news on 10.1 as yet?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Quakie:
Re: BT DUN follow-up

Thanks Matt.

I did that and the program name is "atciui.exe". It runs, but it brings up the old internet sharing program that does sharing via IR.

I think you're right earlier in that it must have been some of the BT files that have been changed. Before, I can pair the device, and then see the BT DUN profile without turning on the internet sharing. Then I can dial up from my laptop using my phone as the modem.

Probably just a file or two that needs to be replace, but I don't know where to start. You're definitely the expert here!

If you can't find it, it's ok. Thanks for trying anyways!

Hey mattk_r, thanks for your work...Any idea when the link on the first post to OS 5.2.1933 will be made?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I've been fishing for a new rom base, but so far I haven't gotten a good one yet. I tried to extract Schap's 4.01, but the .rgu files are getting dumped empty (probably being removed after BuildOS was ran). I tried both 4.00 and 4.01 lite and full, but all were this way.

I'd be happy to post more platforms, but I need a good dump to work with.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I downloaded and am messing with the AT&T rom for the Kaiser, which is the base OS for the "new" ones out right now. I'll put together a base OS and post it either today or tomorrow if all goes well it might even work...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chymmylt:
Sweat! Looking forward to it! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] megarek:
I'm confused, I thought Schap's roms included the .rgu's for cooking.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
The .rgu's are there, but empty.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Quakie:
Yummy...

And why would you be looking forward to sweat? :D

Just teasing you!

Me too...;)

Off to try to kill Bambi and his big brother Mr. Elk for the next week. Looks like the new OS build isn't going to make it before I take off. I tried flashing it once, but after the second splash screen it washed out to bright white and didn't go to the screen calibration... I sure wish I had a good dump of an existing rom...

Anyhow, have a good weekend!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
One more thing - can someone try cooking this into thier next test build? It's the 6 button Comm Manager with 3G, a combination of Juvs and Schaps I put together.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chymmylt:
Just be sure to yell out -"It's coming straight for us" before you shoot! Don't worry about the rom - have fun, relax - perhaps there'll be a working rom out by the time you get back! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
I'd be happy to test this new ROM from you. Please let me know when it's going to be available and I'll give it a try.

Thanks again, Mattk_r, for all your work! :)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Botham:
My Pandora phone is now working very nicely indeed. Not a complaint except one strange behaviour - when dialing a number from phone dialer the numbers pressed do not appear until 'call' is pressed. (very easy to dial a wrong number)

The numbers used to come up when pressed.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kazuni:
I'm also trying this package out right now, excellent tool. Although some of the OEM packages are old - i.e. Advanced Configuration is still 1.0 - i managed to update it simply by replacing the files. Does anyone know if there is a good tutorial how to make OEM packages out of cab files? i tried the one from core kitchen but it seems like the tool that converts initflashfiles are buggy and wont produce me the necessary files.

This is a great kitchen! I have built my first Rom but have a big problem.

The battery icon at the top always shows full even if battery is not full.

I used the standard battery option. I installed a custom battery meter and it reads fine. Why can't the cooked battery meter on today screen work??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] allan1:
Never seen that before Kazuni.

AAre you sure you selected the right button on the Tool Bar, the one with the zip?

Mind you, I know that some CABs don't work well with this software. -

By the way, I didn't create this software, another guy Bennec83 did.

BAD rgu syntax!

Just a head's, some registry tweaks have wrong syntax in it. They wont work properly. I'd suggest people who intend to use the registry tweaks check the rgu for syntax problem before actually using it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Usually, but I've seen issues. If you have HardSPL installed, go for it!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Look through the package for the dialer u used. It may have set the color to FFFFFF (black). Try looking at other color settings in the .rgu of other dialers for examples, you might find a color you like better (and can see :))

Would this be the touch dialpad you're referring to?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Are you selecting one of the battery indicator options from the BuildOS, and/or are you installing a comm manager after flashing your phone? Both may be a cause. Are you changing any of the package contents / adding your own before flashing?

Otherwise, please post your buildos choice list.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I've you've found a reg tweak with an issue, please post which / what so everyone can know. I'm not aware that there are any issues, but then I only use the ones that are checked by default :)

usually you don't have the prerequisites installed, such as .NET Framework 2.0 or VC runtimes... Not sure which you need / don't have, but you might try just installing the visual studio express, which should give you everything you need (VC++ recommended if you get only one).

Correction to package "Comm Manager 10B Touch with 3G"

I've made a couple of minor corrections to this package - when pressed in portrait, the 3G button would be mis-aligned several pixels to the left, and when in landscape mode, the background was the same shade as the bottom row instead of the top one. They're fairly minor graphical glitches, but they're corrected in this package - you might want to add it to the latest OEM pack.

Well, it would have been had I realised that it was caused by another glitched graphic - namely the data connection icon. I've now fixed that too, and updated the attached package. Sorry about that... rather annoying!

Again, it's fairly minor, and only shows up when you tap the icons, but I've fixed it in the package now.

If you're running anything after 3.60 ROM version (Kitchen version 6.2 or later) - and you've got everything you need, I'd wait if you only want a new version to work with. I've pondered playing with the new base from schaps, but it looks like batter life is the primary issue per the user comments, and why I haven't put anything new out for a while.

That is, unless you wanted to change your base and build a super lean big storage setup and install all your application from the SD card like I have ;)

Haha yeah it's getting to the point now where I've tried almost every ROM out there, now I've finally settled on one, there isn't much to upgrade to... so I've been looking at a new PDA haha.

HTC Album issue

I think I mentioned this one a while back. Basically, what I had to do was rename a file that had a 0419 to 0409. I think you can make it so that it doesn't have to be in landscape by modifying the shortcut to remove the "-landscape" parameter.

After that, it's just another recook...

hi matt,

i have a simple question. i made my own rom based on 3.62.3 rom with your tools, but my phone often got frozen while surfing with netfront (there was no other issue at all). so, i changed the base rom from 3.62.3 to Schap's 4.01 lite ROM. it works very well without getting frozen any more, and it has a little bit more free memory.

is it possible to use any roms with your tools? or you recommend to use the roms in your post? sorry, if this is a stupid question...
