To address your statement of helping the community.

"SO much for helping the community.."

Is this statement directed at me?

If so, do you really think I don't help the community?

(I've made two kitchens and a ROM) all without going behind another members back taking their compiled ROM breaking it down and recompiling it and calling it my own, and as you probably read I am working on a kitchen for that build and release to all when the time is right.

I WILL NOT plagiarize another members efforts!

That is what you were asking me to help you with.

Why do you have a donate link in your signature? By your own admission the extent of your efforts is to use someone else's kitchen to create a ROM and then have the nerve to ask for donations. You remind me of a panhandler (expect others to do the dirty work and then all you have to contribute is make a sign hold it up and ask for donations).

Now lets look at what you have contributed lately:

Came in late in the development of the "Beta Testers Needed" kitchen, not while it was in it's infancy but when it was at near perfection.

Input when you found a bug but couldn't figure out how to fix it so you waited for others to fix and submit their fix, was quick to criticize but offered no real solution, also had the nerve to add "LOL" in your bug submission when YOU were the only thing I was LOL-ing about. Yes Russ and I had a few good laughs at your expense.

Then you had the gall to build a ROM (which only takes a few clicks) from the kitchen (that was created with help of many here), start a thread, post the ROM and then panhandle for donations.

A couple of questions:

Did you ask its right for his kitchen?

Did you ask its right how he felt about you coming to me and asking me to get involved with your deceitful efforts?

Is that what you call helping the community?

Is this your idea of community spirit?

Did you not stop to think that I will not try to profit from another member/pirates efforts?

You ungrateful little snot nose piece of ****, if you would try to **** another member here then get all pissy when you are busted and outed, then I guess you really just exposed what you are really made of.

Go back to the rock you crawled out from under!

If you screw with this pirate, heed my warning, it will not end here.

FYI: A copy of this post will be PMed to all that were involved in the Beta Testers Needed kitchen prosess for their comments and forwarded to its right, I will also ask its right if I should post it on his thread for all to see.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ANTC:
its right already know so you could go **** your self you stupid ****. read his thread, and i

quote

so there goes your whole argument..

AND heres his PM to ME just yesterday

why he couldn't release his kitchen to me

I didn't plagiarize ****, I always said it in the thread where I got my Rom or Kitchen from.

and I have the donation link in my sig cause if your stupid ass can read I've done more then just make roms

and my "deceitful efforts" of what trying to get the kitchen working from a base rom he even said I can use to build my OWN rom from his base. I never had intention in releasing a kitchen dip****. I simply need to get the kitchen working from his files which in his thread clearly says you can!

and you laugh at me cause I didn't know how to fix a bug from your kitchen I don't give a **** I never claimed to be something I'm not I don't know everything and I wasn't able to fix it.

and you exposed me of what? Nothing. nothing was ever hidden. the more posts you say towards me the more of an idiot you seem and you think your oh-so-powerful and better then everyone. your not.

you take **** to seriously you needa get laid this is a ****ing hobby and you turn it in to jerry springer cause your a *****.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Reply

Your Funny!

Where did I say I was better than everyone else?

FYI: Got laid just before posting your reply from your original PM.

At my age getting laid doesn't have any impact on the though process.

So what were your intentions anyway? personal use only?

Your first mistake was to take on something you could not handle.

Read, research and do Your Own homework that is how I acquire knowledge.

Spend more time reading and less time whining like a child.

Research, research, research!

As I had stated earlier in this thread I am working on a updated kitchen with the latest build myself, it will be released for all, without copying or extracting someone else's efforts but relying on the efforts of those that willfully want to participate.

If you had been here from the beginning and bothered to read throughly you would know that I abandoned using other peoples work for obvious reasons.

As I eluded to before it looks like its right really does not want to give up his research by providing a kitchen (not that he COULD NOT but WOULD NOT) instead expects if you want to extract and use his work don't be lazy do some work yourself!

I admire him for that!

And now the sig part: I guess I never had a need for something already addressed in other tutorials. "Everyone's writing a how to book now days!"

Now about Jerry Springer, he is more complex and educated than his TV show, as am I. With as clear and concise as you are about your intentions you could stand to learn from both of us.

And finally, I made it all the way through without swearing!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] epimazzo:
Page Pool

Theloon,

I have made a new one rom and for the first time I had faced a weird issue regarding page pool. When you try alter size from 6 to 8 for instance using Mestrini tool, my wizard get stuck on welcome head. I just move on if I hard reset.

Any idea? Didn't face that earlier..only in 7.2 version!

thanks man!:cool:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] charly_mx:
the loon, just an advice my friend, ignore stupid comments. :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] joihan777:
WHAT an impressive kitchen!

Thanks theLoon for your hard work!

I want to start building my own ROM using this kitchen. I've only done it once before using Faria's kitchen. And that was a l-o-o-n-g while ago. I only got mediocre results so I put cooking aside till I saw this kitchen.

Is there a manual somewhere I missed? I've found the thread by ANTC using the search. Is there a better manual around? Or is that all there is to it?

Any pointers or correct search terms would be appreciated.

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
You can use any tools that you are comfortable with, since you used Faria's kitchen I suggest you try that. I use Wizard Rom packer kitchen by Ed Haas.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] charly_mx:
perhaps its my laptop but..

Hello my friend. Today i was trying to cook a new recipe with your great kitchen, however i cannot start BOS.exe it give me an error. I think is something about my laptop because i have been uninstalling some apps and perhaps that messed up my registry regarding .net.

I dont know if someone else has the same problem. I will reinstall the .net and then try to start BOS.exe again. Will report back.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ANTC:
look over the OEM packages cause sometimes it can cause conflicts..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] charly_mx:
Yes. you a right pal. I reinstalled the .net and still got some error. Perhaps some OEM packages are messed up, because i just pasted over my old directory.

Advice, if you just downloaded the last kitchen dont extract it over any old kitchen. Make a fresh clean directory and use it over there. You will save a lot of headaches.

@ANTC: Thankxs a lot pal.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ANTC:
yep, Not a problem..

Just cause it's not my kitchen doesn't mean I can't help out those that need a little guidance..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] emiel_regis:
Dear All,

Maybe I am missing something, but I have some questions and I would be very thankful if someone could explain some issues.

Well first of all I am very new to all this Kitchen stuff and ROM cooking. I've downloaded theloons Kitchen, both parts, extracted them and started building the ROM as it was describer and promted. I got the 76mb .nbf file and started to flash the ROM. But at 74% my ROMUpdateUtility just dissapeared. I really mean it. It just quit but on my Wizard there was still the indicator showing 74%. I soft reset it and got stuck in bootloader mode. Then I reflashed it back to T-Mobile ROM. After reading the post here about trying to keep the size of ROM close to 58mb I tried it again, got 56mb and succeded to fash.

And now the questions are:

1. Is there any way of flashing custom ROM larger than 58mb? For example theloons ROM.

2. If not, then what is the meaning of all he OEM stuff uploaded? I mean, to receive the max size I've chosen almost nothing frm the great OEM package. I really would like to include all those applications to my custom .nfb file.

3. What is the difference between the T-Mobile ROM of size 76mb with theloons custom ROM, taking into account that I can freely flash to T-Mobile ROM while having error on the other?

Thanks in advance. Looking forward for any answer. :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] charly_mx:
Well in fact remember that the wizard has a limited ROM space memory , so you better not try to flash some ROM higher that 60MBs. Ive have had no problems at all when trying to flash smaller ROMs. I did try to flash a 65MBs ROM and crashed at some point.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] xeno1:
The reason t-mobiles ROM flashes even though it's so much bigger is because their ROM also contains: IPL (G3), IPL(G4), SPL(G3), SPL(G4), GSM, OS, Splash Screen, HTC Logo Screen, and the extended ROM, all which have their own allocated space that can't be used by other part of the ROM. The only thing you're cooking is the OS. If you were to add these other parts in to your ROM it would be bigger and yet still flash.

And instead of starting another post, has anyone cooked the touchflo cube in to their ROM and noticed that if you slide up to close it you can't get it to open back up again unless you reset your phone? Is there a fix for that?

NEVERMIND the question, got it figured out. Apparently is was opening, but was just hiding and only came to the front if I swiped my finger across the home plugin.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] cybersphere01:
The whole purpose of having lots of OEM packages is to give you options. There is no way to fit every single application, you will have to chose what is best for you without exceeding the limits of the wizard.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Or you could learn to cook an Extended ROM!:D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] epimazzo:
Need a clue on this one! really...:o
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] cybersphere01:
How much more space can you get out of it? I just learned to cook, so I dont know much about extended roms

I do have to say that your kitchen was the first time I ever cooked a rom and it went really well. The only real problems I have were my own doing. I cant wait for your next project.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] emiel_regis:
Thank you guys, ALL, for your guidance!!!

Now I figured out many issues. Using mestrini's WST I extracted T-Mobile's ROM. The OS part is only 57mb. Whereas the ExtRom takes 10mb.

Don't kick or kill me guys for my questions, but I have some more :)

1. Is there any way to build own ExtROM part?

2. Is there any way to emulate Wizard on PC to have some experimental base, to test various cooked ROM while having the real Wizard operational?

and the last one

3. I've read the tutorial by ANTC and double_ofour about building own OEM part. Can I use some lisenced software in OEM, to have it installed automatically and where should I put the lisence/serial information?

Thanks :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] epimazzo:
ExtRom is not a difficult part of flashing process. All you need is practicing:D

Have in mind that a good size is near to 9Mb. Follow this procedure and you should be fine!

If you still have doubts regarding ExtRom, feel free to contact me in PM.:cool:

Good luck!

Gonna test it soon.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] xeno1:
I've run in to a snag that I can't seem to get around in 7.2. I built a good working ROM with it a few days ago, with the exception that when I was cooking it I did a little cleaning of the temp file and accidentally deleted out the midlet manager files and the provision file for the network wizard. That would have been fine for me since all I have to do is stick those files back in the windows folder for them to work, but I've had several people ask me to upload my ROM for them to try out so I decided to recook it with the files in it the right way. Now, every time I go in to sounds and notifications and change the ringtone or sms tone when I click the close button all the tones revert back to their original setting the way they did when we all first got this build and started cooking with it. Not only that though, sounds and notifications also refuses to close unless I hit the end button. If I try to close it with the x button the wait cursor pops up, all the text in the drop down menus disappears and then reappears again and resets itself to the original settings over again. Also, setting a ringtone and playing it before closing to make it stick like we used to have to do doesn't work. Anyone have any idea what might cause that to happen? Oh, and I've tried recooking this ROM at least 6 times tonight, all with the same results.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] cybersphere01:
Did you set ringtones to be moved to sd card? I had a setting in my oem to move ringtones to sd card and that was causing the same problem for me.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] xeno1:
No I didn't, but but I'll check the registry to see if maybe it got set that way. My ringtones are actually already on my card anyway. I did check to see if it was the card doind it but it did it even if I used the default tones.

Think I figured out the problem. I must have cooked the ROMs just a little too big maybe because my registry isn't holding any entries. I may have to go back to the original one and just have the people that download it add the files that they need. I'll try cooking it again a time or 2 tonight though to see if I can get it right.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
all i can say - although there are messy oempacks and sys particles(files/dependencies, too much of this=doubled libs etc)), effect may be impressive.

thanks dudes,

(i had no service phone module problem after hard cuts...(voip seems to be mixed with phone module)..

(more thoughts later - everything is a-ok, 'till now(besides flaws, of course).

27 mb of custom soft, 56.1 mb rom img, 3% faster, than 4.0.0.0.

(~2 mb left lol:)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] calouro:
I have investigated cooking ex roms before. From what I understand, the cabs and files you place in it just run from the ex rom, but they get installed in the phones main memory. Seems to me like it's just like a 10 mb sd card, except you can't install any programs on the ex rom like you can on the sd card. I don't see any advantage of cooking an ex rom. Maybe someone can enlighten me.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Since this is when you are starting BOS, its most likely a problem with a bad options.xml file, or a .rgu file. Make sure all your .rgu and initflashfiles.txt are saved in Unicode format. If you have options.xml files, then make sure the GUID line in it correctly specifies the GUID for that package. If you haven't gotten a GUID yet (because its a new package you created) then you can't have an options.xml file until the GUID gets created (after a complete run of BOS).

Move folders out from under the OEM directory and you can figure out which package is the problem one...

Good luck...

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
If you are getting that error with the kitchen that comes with this, then you will (or should) have the same problem with any other kitchen (they all use the same base tools). Did you create a new package in the OEM folder, or did you modify any of the packages that came with this? Out of the box, the OEM/SYS/ROM folders of this (v7.2) works just fine for me. For you to get the error, either you don't have the kitchen setup right, or you've added / modified what came in either the OEM or SYS folders. Or the other possibility is you had a bad download...

There are a couple of errors which prevent the Build OS to finish.

If you select the Full TouchFlo package --> "error the file temp\dump\touch.dll already exist"

If you seclect BT Explorer you will get the error because the same file is also in the temp\dump.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] xeno1:
The easiest way to fix that is to look at the bottom of build OS and see which folder it was working on when the error occured and then just remove the offending file from that folder. Since it's already in the dump folder once, it won't cause any problems if you remove it (assuming that you didn't already know that).

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] xeno1:
I just cooked a new ROM with 8.0 and have 2 problems.

The first and the same problem that I had with 7.2 is that I can't set a ringtone or sms tone (didn't try any others). If I close sonds and notifications using the x button, all tones revert back to their original tones. If I close it with the end button, the tones stick until I do a soft reset. I literally cooked and recooked my ROM in 7.2 at least 20 times trying to resolve this issue and only once did it work the right way. Unfortunately, that was the first ROM I cooked and realized that I had removed files from the temp/dump that I needed so I had to recook it.

The second problem with 8.0 is that activesync continually tries to sync (looking for changes) and eventually give me an error that syncronisation could not be completed... I can still explore my phone without any problem. I tried deleting the partnership and renewing it, but that didn't work. The thing is that when I start a new partnership with any of my devices I uncheck everything because I don't use outlook so it shouldn't have anything to sync anyway.

Anyone have any ideas what would cause either of these problems?
