On a side note, my Wizards battery was draining pretty quickly past 2 days, and I think it's related to the Home plugin. I disabled it today and will report back on that.

Which OS are you using 5._._? or Number 9?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nycelitemaster:
Theloon, i dont think you need to modify anything for 5.2.5 regular version w/o touch or anything. It's just flawless, stable, less battery drain, Fast n Furious. Better than stock WM5 from Tmobile. LOL you should call tmob and be like you guys want to buy my wm6 for wizard... tease the crap outta them LOL
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] masr1979:
5.2.5 on a side note I've noted others that haven't been able to run this version on their wizards, so I'm guessing the problem is not directly tied to your release.

If you were talking about my battery issues, it's playing music that's been eating my battery. Before I could listen to music for a good 5 - 6 hrs depending on the circumstances, but today my battery was at 95% I started listening to music using Audio Manager and like 20 songs afterwards my phone reset it self. Next thing I know when my phones boots up again my batter is down to 17%?????, but my new theory is that my battery is going bad, since I turned the phone off, turned it back on and my battery went back up to 45%.

I get the same result with all media players, (Windows media player mobile, mortplayer, audio manager) after a few songs the machine reboots itself ,and starts complaining about the battery being almost empty. I'll try getting a new battery and testing it out to see if it's a hardware problem.

Battery Drain

Before you go blaming your battery I am having the same issue with number 9, that is why I asked. This build is the most complete as far as dlls and drivers but I think I tightened the springs a little to tight hence the battery drain issue. I will be working on it a little more before I start from scratch again.:confused:

Battery Drain

Double posted WTF????
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Merlin_reloaded:
I've been noticing...

With one of your earlier builds, the wi-fi drains the battery FAST. Fast as in 20 mins = 10-20% battery drop. I dunno why, but I think it's related to the issue that my kid brother uses it to watch Youtube live. Any other comments?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nycelitemaster:
i use 5.2.5 my custom build no issue like that.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] masr1979:
Good thing I didn't buy the battery right away. Well I'll try to isolate the issue as much as I can, everything else is working so well that I'd be a shame for you to have to start over again. I had batterystatus' cpuscaler working before, I'm sure I tried it with it off as well. Just to be on the safe side I'll disable it and give it a whirl later and let you know what happened.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] lilila:
This kitchen started by mattk_r is great. I also love the 5.2.5 by theloon. One problem I found about 525 is when the camera OEM pack is omitted, the resulting ROM file will be a little bit larger than usual and the RUU flashing program will crash at 99% completion.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nycelitemaster:
Wait are you saying that when you do not include Camera in the kitchen it becomes bigger and when you add camera its smaller.... i dont follow. If you add something to it, then it get big but if you take out something it becomes smaller. But your case is wierd. Anyways here is what you need to know.

wizard has a fixed rom size which is set. If you do not add something to the rom, the size of rom stays the same. Now it doesn't matter where you add or remove it will be roughly the same size. You will see diff here and there. Now for RUU to crash, are you using Core's Program to compile the kitchen if yes then that is the thing you may want to switch. I had similar prob where core would not crash if your nk.nbf is larger than original fixed size. It would just compile and ruu would crash. I use farias createrom.bat which has additional size check.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] b.mann:
Thank you!

For once, most of the packages that I need are included for my use in a kitchen, this make my cooking very helpful since I can never cook a ROM right. Can I dump any ROM (like XMr3) and put some of the packages for the touchFLo and home tab directly into the ROM, or are there some extra steps?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
You can dump XM6r3 (unfortunately, for some reason most of my packages show up in SYS and not OEM, but not really a big deal other than its messy) then try using the OEM packages here to update / change it. But XM6r2a and r3 ROM and SYS packages (and some of the OEM that I didn't touch or create) are from an old version of Mattk_r's work (like 4.2 I think). I haven't tried to put Touch into it, so no idea how it will react / work (the packages and ROM /SYS stuff is before touch stuff started coming out in the consolidated kitchen). Also note that I've tweaked around some in the SYS folder, so you may run into stuff where I've done that (not many places, but I have modded a couple of provxml files and such).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Final????

I have spent the last couple of days reworking my kitchen and have reached what I think my be the last kitchen I will ever need. I finished smashing 99.9% of all bugs. From here on out you should be able to just add whatever properly constructed OEM packages come along to the "Beta Testers" kitchen and flash away! If all goes well I will be releasing it tonight. Should any new and exciting features come along I will build OEM packages and/or cab to add to Kitchens! :D

Looks like I'm going to be a busy person this weekend. Not only do I have a new kitchen to play with, I just got an email notifying me that my kaiser will be here this afternoon. Thanks theloon for all the hard work you've put in to this. Hopefully I'll get around to cooking a new ROM with this version this weekend, it just depends on if I get bored with playing with my kaiser or not. Since they informed my that my 4Gb SDHC will not be accompanying it quite yet since they seem to be out of stock right now it will probably limit things anyway.

/sys/OEMOPERATORS

@theloon,

In previous ver the OEMOPERATORS folder had several files includeing the Aero.tsk the HTC icon, etc. With this new total rebuild, have you put that stuff somewhere else or just dropped it from the build?

Office options, there is only one selectable office option, Office 2003, if selected will that drop 2007 or is 2003 really the only choice?

Still poking around in here.. :)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Other Poop

The stuff that was that was actually needed is now integrated in the OS some of it was junk that just made a mess of things. I'll be adding the option for office 2003/2007 in next build (probably this evening). Areo.tsk is in the OEMOPERATORS folder in the "OEM" folder, check that folder out. Whithin there is a file called Welcome.bmp that you can use as a reference for a splash screen (you will see what I mean when you load ROM for the first time and it starts the customize procedure), it is the welcomehead96 but you will see that you can use any bmp you want just check the dimensions and centering.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] masr1979:
theloon is it possible to have a stand alone camera package? sorry to be a pain, but camera packages are definitely not my friends. Also in 6.0 you have a really old "mms" package mix in there. You've got "ArcSoft MMS 4.2.8.1", "Original MMS" and lastly "mms". I'm guessing the last one is obsolete though.

Another thing, how is your phone fairing with the whole battery drain issue? mine is acting really freaky since it drains super fast as soon as I start to listen to music on it, but if I reset it a few times, or turn it off for a few seconds the battery goes up 40, 50, one time as much as 60-ish%. I'm wondering if it has to do with the SD Card so I'm going to put a few mp3's on the internal memory and see it drains as fast. If I don't play around with media, I get excellent battery life..... but I just bought a new pair of stereo headphones.... so you know..... I really really want to use them :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mjuti:
Hi theloon,

Thanks for your ongoing efforts in making this run smoother

But, can you please clarify how much free RAM/ROM ( approximately ) do we have with this build?

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
In Reply to mars1979:

1) I am working on the camera package and should have things worked out in the next release.

2)The "mms" folder is not a package it is just a mixture of necessary .dlls and stuff that I haven't placed yet, I guess I should have renamed that folder to avoid confusion. The Orig.MMS is just that, it's the one that came stock in the 318 OS and will stay as an option for purest. If the ArcSoft package is an old one, Please post the latest one so that I may add it for all!

3) My battery seem to be doing OK although I really haven't had a chance to test extensively due to all the flashing required to create the kitchen (I have been testing my packages as much as I can to check for compatibility).

This may be a long venture for me because I am trying to create "proper packages" and NOT put things in the wrong places as they were in the "318 beta v4" build, that is why so many things were broken before as in (phone, Wifi, camera, HTC Voice recorder, etc...).

If you just take someone else's package from their kitchen it may contain dups or be incomplete, as in, a necessary dll or something my be in their sys packages or somewhere else, that is why some cabs and packages don't work and people are having to try several different ones before finding one that works in their "End user ROM" as in "built by the chefs".

When I find dups and they are identical I remove them from the packages and put one of them in a separate folder/package (in this case SYS/Missing DLLs) so that they are not missed again, unless the names are the same ONLY, then that is a whole new ball game, then they have to be checked for compatibly with all other packages/apps.

If I had not used someone else's beta I would not have the problems I had before and I would be a lot further along by now!

Hope this answers your questions.

@theloon, Ok so it was my standard DUH error, if you select WMP plug in AND MegaMod HTCHomePlug you get an dupe file, WMP. The WMP home plug is included in the MegaMod package, for some reason I keep forgetting that and select it twice.

Also, original MMS and ArcSoft are both selected by default that throws an error as well. 0.jpg already exists... since they are both defaulted I didnt de-select one.

Ok so I have proven that I am not nearly as smart as I think I am. :)

Actually it was a dilemma for me! Which one do I leave selected as the default?

If you would like it included you can either:

1. Add it yourself, do a search for *.tsk files in the /SYS and/or /OEM folders and copy the touch theme there.

OR

2. You can post the .tsk file here and theloon may chose to add it for you.

I recommend the former. :)

6.0.0 is FRIGGEN HUGE!

I have done several test builds with 6.0.0 and each time they are WAY over the 56M limit. I started digging a bit and found that in ver 5.2.5 /SYS/OS is 6.57MB, the same folder in 6.0.0 is 12.7MB that delta is about what I am seeing beyond the 56M limit.

I normally build with the same options just to keep testing consistant (and I dont need all the other stuff anyway) so that keeps the total option size consistant, the deltas come from any changes theloon makes in the core files.

Anyone else having a hard time getting a build to fit the ROM?

Russ741
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] masr1979:
Well I compressed the office exes and that helped a bit, also for my personal use I always delete extra themes, and I also delete the RGU files from the dump directory, believe it or not that saves around 1.3-ish MB.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Why Everything works now!

The reason we were having all the problems is because 318 Beta 4 that was originally started with was FUBARed from the beginning. All I did is dump the original M$ 318 (not the butchered Beta 4) and guess what all the problems went away and heres the clincher, problems went away because now the ROM is complete as in no missing .dlls, .exes and so on. Think about it the reason that these PDA/Phones RAM specs or as they are (64mb for OS) is because M$ and HTC never expected to cram that much into the OS part of the ROM. If I could destroy the partition in the memory add reformat it I would. The other alternative is to cook my own extended ROM to add the rest of the files/apps I want in ROM. It is important to remember this is an OS ROM we are building not a whole kit and caboodle.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] shadezero:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
I completely agree with you theloon but your message begs a question: I have always worked under the assumption that max ROM size OS + SYS + OEM must be <= 56MB but you say above <= 64MB. If 64MB is the true limit then my builds will work fine, if 56MB is the limit then would you please let us all know how to build an ext-ROM?

Thanks again for all your hard work.

after going into the sound settings, you can't get out of it because it shows the ringtone section for incoming calls as blank. looking in the registry, the values are correct and the wma files are in the windows folder. the other sounds come up just fine. i've tried many different builds to get the problem to go away, including a clean one.

i thought i remember this being an issue with another packaged rom that was released, but i haven't been able to find it after a lot of searching...
