Looks like 5.2.1 has the same issue with WMP and QD.exe as well. I have built it three times, one each, 318, 318 w/touch scroll and full touch flo. All wont run WMP (locks up at: Adding files to library) and neither of the 318 builds have a 6 button home plug in (MegaMod).

I will hang on until 5.2.2

PS> Can anyone tell me why it is that just as soon as I start flashing my phone my wife calls? Of course she gets V/M then yells at me cause I didnt answer?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
You won't have the sixth tab if you don't include AM because sixth tab depends on AM for functionality, got that info from the person that hacked the homescreen to make sixth tab possible.

The Only reason I gave those options (MP) is for the people that didn't want music playing capability at all. I guess I will have to look at that one differently!

Sound changing to vibrate

I noticed that my phone is still chaning from the option ring to vibrate. i tried different ROM version with different programs, but still the issue remains.

No tested with 5.2.1. with and without touchflo / cube. I got a feeling it all hes to do someting because now some many different ways to set the vibrate option is availible that the hardware / software get 'confused'.

Anybody the same problem?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
compression? What compression

Ok gang, this is TOO wierd.

If you take a sec and look at my huge post above...

I started with a COMPRESSED 80040000-OS.nb at 53,888KB and ended with an nk.nbf of 58,113KB. I just re-extracted the original 80040000-OS.nb from the .rar file it is: 58,368KB I did a build with EXACTLY the same options and got a nk.nbf of 56,577KB dare I say "What the hell?". I used the compression utility theloon posted in the 4.1 kitchen by the way.

I'm testing now to see if this fixes my many issues... ok ok... my issues are unfixable but the phone's are!

Russ741

update: I was hoping that my WM and QD issues may be related to either compression being used or the ROM's final size. Apparently neither is the case, the ROM exhibits the same odd behavior as the comressed one, WMP crashes on "adding files to library" and Quick Dial doesnt show up on the today plug it. One positive note from this experiment, I no longer get the "QuickDial cannot be loaded" error message. No error message but no QD either... over to you theloon....

Version 5.2.4

I have been working on the latest updates for a few days now and new version/build is ready! I've been really busy with work sorry for the delay. Please see first page of post for link.:)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] 4irm:
great news, i am gonna flash it tonight. btw, have u fixed the QD touch flow issue?

(My current version is 5.1.2, since i ve updated to that i cant update the weather through active sync anymore - not a major issue just to let u know)

cheers

irm

p.s. have u included flash player or adobe LE?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
That is one of the bugs I have been working on, does your WMP lock up when you add files to the library?

Russ741
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
No Flash Player or Adobe LE but you should be able to use the ones from my previous kitcken witn no problems.

I will check into weather with Activesync.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nycelitemaster:
ill cook this tonight and let u know how things flow :d hopefully ill be able to squeez some bugs out this time. hehe
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
TouchFLO=great! 318Std<great!

I did two builds of 5.2.4 today, did T/F first and it went very well. Got all 6 buttons on the TodayPlug, WMP is still giving me errors but i dont think it is the player, I think my files may be the issue.

Did non-touch (318 standard) this afternoon and the 'QuickDial cannot be opened' error pop up came back. I dont know what to make of that. It works with TouchFlo but not the 318 standard build.

HOLD THE PHONE... I think I just figured this out (at least in part) QuickDial is working... I tap the 'fav peeps' tab add a contact from the windows contacts db and tap that..the phone dials. So, me thinks there may be a stray registry entry somewhere calling it twice. Not real sure how to go about finding such a critter but I will give it a shot.

@theloon--> Dude you have done yourself proud with this one!

Russ741
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] bachikho:
still can't play .wmv with 5.24, WMP lock up when opening file and in About it still says that's 5.21 build!

Real Player and HTC Audio Recorder don't work also!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
:D Going one step further. I am integrating the app to change launcher icons and links in Cube making it customizable.

Stay tuned new build soon.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nycelitemaster:
Theloon, i know its annoying just want to know if you got the time to fix the camera icon, oh yea btw did you do any changes to OEM folder, i mean alter some files or did you just added oem packages.... let me know if i can use 5.2.1's oem pack with the latest
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Camera icon no workie! and I noticed it is removed altogether in Faria's 3.3 camera so I will probably do the same. Like I said in another post "button works, shortcut in programs works so I don't feel a burning desire to have a third way to launch one application.

Other packages should work just fine if they don't please post. There are so many options and so many ways to build a ROM with this kitchen that debuging is full time job.:)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Old versions

Which version did you install (standard, finger scroll or full touch). I just downloaded my own work and double checked my files and they are correct, if you don't see reg entry in rgu referencing ver5.2.4 than you mixed up files somewhere.

Please don't post about bugs in older versions, and double check before posting I do!:rolleyes:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Rules Have Changed

I will no longer be posting links and I will be pulling links. I've got over 100 downloads of each of my kitchen and very few testers posting so from now own I will make my beta kitchen by invite only.

For Theloon...

Can you give me very newbie instructions on how to adapt all gret stuff on V5.2.4 ?

thx,:confused:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] 4irm:
not like me ;-)

just installed 5.2.4., so far very stable and fast like the previous versions, ust a couple of things while creating a customized ROM.

1) the MMS option under OEM is useless once i have selected ArcSoft MMS 3.5 or 4.2, furthermore it causes an error message if MMS and one of the ArcSoft MMS options has been chosen.

2) Still the Touch.dll issue, but i simply deleted the folder in the SYS folder.

3) I get an error message "Audio???.dll already there" when i tick streaming video

4) I get an error message "touch.dll already there" when i tick the QD standalone option

all in all minor issues, great kitchen, really appreciate it.

cheers.

irm
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
1) I will move mms to MMS Options and label "Check one only" or remove competely (not needed)

2) There is no way to have issue with touch.dll each is in it's own package (unless you check two options) or you are using old SYS with new OEMs

Please see note "Check one only!" in BuildOS app if your BuildOS app does not display this then you are using wrong one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will not comment any further until you resolve things on your end.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:

5.2.5

Fooled around with your kitchen from the early 5.x version. Really enjoyed it, but I am more a reader than a poster. Still I like to get my hand on your newest release. Any chance for a download link? Thanks anyway for your hard work so far.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] monkey_knight:
i'll play around with future builds...as i can...

on 5.24, a rom that i built would not accept the quickdial in build os...kept causing an error. also, the htc audio recorder would not record (dunno if this is because i didn't have wmp and only htc audio manager checked). I've only been playing around with building. did notice that the rom setup for the kitchen constantly brings up a customer feedback system (is this what people were referring to as "dogfood"?) a little annoying, but it at least stops asking...if you just choose ok...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Dogfood refers to the server MS has setup to collect user feedback. So yes.

Quick dial is not needed with Full TouchFlo package. I guess I should be more explicit with my information/descriptions in package selection.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] masr1979:
Well it's your right to do so, but remember that not everyone uses every feature, so it's very possible that, like me, most people don't experience many, if any problems. Also many times someone has already posted the issues that we might be having. In any case, thanks for the time you invest into this.

*edit* Ok I read the first post and noticed that you said an "all ok" is all your asking if in fact everything went well, and that's a very do-able thing. I see no reason why at least this much isn't possible for everyone to do. *edit*
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Gyom:
Testing in progress

Just finished cooking version 26 (;-) of my custom 5.2.4 rom (using the OS option 2, finger scroll-no cube) and I have been experiencing a few problems:

1) sometimes the time on the today plugin (megamod 6 buttons) stops refreshing.

2) I had a few crashes after a soft reset ( i guess due to the softs I added)

3) I can't connect to live Messenger through the activesync connection

4) The weather update through activesync works randomly but this already has been reported.

I customized some of the OEM packages and added many softs so it may be the cause of problem 1 and 2. I got the pb with messenger even on a clean install so I think no 3 comes from the rom.

Note: The only mod I did on th sys folder is delete the SQM folder.

I love the kitchen and all the options provided ! Please theloon release your newest versions !!!!!! I having so much fun cooking !

Thanks man !
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nycelitemaster:
Theloon, can u send me the link for lastest build.. thanks, oh yea can you also tell me how can i remove that Camera Icon from the Picture & Video or it the Camera Pack that removes it self..?

edit: by latest i meant 5.2.5

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Merlin_reloaded:
Tried out the newest rev.

and something seems to be messed up.... I selected TouchFlo (scrolling only) and nope, no finger scrolling.

Other stuff seems OK

Suggestions:

1. Please include smartskey

only one I could think of:D

P.S: I was bored, so I did a new set of icons for HTC Home (the artwork is not mine, and all credit for the orig. art should go to the creators, except for the arrows, mail, phone,messaging and the lock symbol) If anyone wants it, look for my post on P.1

CONFIRMED: I did another ROM flash from scratch(BuildOS,etc) and still no Bioscroll. Going back to prev. version
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] 4irm:
1) the same here, no touchflow finger scrolling with 5.2.4.

EDIT: THIS IS DUE TO THE SCROLLBAR THICKNESS, 9PX DOESNT WORK - 11PX DOES

2) please change your reg settings for "Change location of email and attachements to Storage Card" to:

[HKEY_CURRENT_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Settings]

"PropertyPath"="\Storage Card\Mail"

"AttachPath"="\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments"

your current string doesnt work with WM6.

cheers.

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

My First Report on 5.2.5

Just loaded a stripped down ROM from this kitchen for first Beta Test; two comments:

1. When using "Standard OS - No Touchflo", the HTC Music Today plug-in will not show up. FYI, I am only loading WMP as my media player. (Just a stock approach). To confirm, I even tried loading a CAB for the Today plug-in (even though it was cooked in the ROM) to see if the kitchen was missing something. The CAB file installation would appear to install, but alas no Music plug-in. This cab would work with other roms...

2. What is the reasoning to stick with the older .318 O.S.? It appears that other than a few minor bugs, theloon has locked this kitchen down pretty tight into a functional, working package. It seems like migrating to a newer OS build might not be that bad of an idea...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
Since you showed up to the game a little late and didn't bother to research I'll clue you in. This thread is to complement the "Consolidated Kitchen Central" thread, I had not been given the ability to update the first page of that thread (I took it over as requested by the previous owner, mattk_r) to continue the efforts of the others that have contributed. As you will note it is 318 based.

Is there a newer ROM designed specifically for the wizards hardware?

All I see is ones taken from other devices and modified to work on a wizard with references to hardware that isn't on the wizard.

When I find an updated version written specifically for the wizard I will work on that one.

This is a 318 based kitchen thread and always will be. If you were looking for something else then you are in the wrong place, so keep looking. You have all the rights and privileges of everyone else here, do your time and develop your own kitchen with whatever rom YOU like!

Sorry if this seems a little harsh but they tightened the straps on my straight jacket a little too tight today!

No Further Comments.

You might want to take another look at your suggested reg setting:

HKEY_CURRENT_MACHINE

What is "CURRENT_MACHINE"?

Did you mean to suggest "current user" or "local machine" or ?????

1. It is presumptuous of you to assume I didn't research. I KNEW that this thread was where YOU picked up the ball and ran for Matt, and your work is a derivitive of his start. I credited you with buttoning up a lot of bugs from the original kitchen and making a solid package. Apparently, you didn't read it as such in my post. In addition, I also was quite aware that the kitchen is founded on the 318 O.S., AND, this is the latest "Official" release for the Wiz. I was just inquiring if the thought of using an updated O.S. base was something that was or will be considered. If not, that's fine with me, the 318 O.S. is rock solid. You misunderstood my question as a slight of your hard work.

2. I requested the link to the 5.2.5 version of your kitchen to test, as you have desired. Your reasoning for making this "request only", as I understand it, is so that testers would better respond and help de-bug. I did respond, and indicated a bug I found in the kitchen. Unfortunately, something in my post made you see red instead of seeing my INTENTION, which was to report back on the kitchen and ask a simple question about the project looking forward. I apologize if your interpretation saw anything that slighted or degraded your work. That is NOT what I am about.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] theloon:
I do apologize! I guess I took you the wrong way.

My mental state is not at it's best right now. Worse than usual!

My wife is leaving for Alaska because her 80 year old father is not doing well at all and I am going to have to leave my company in someone else's hands while I go there later on this week.

I am no longer using the old V4 318 ROM nd haven't since Ver4.9 I stripped my own copy of the original .nbfs of the touch and 318 roms down to sys, oem and rom because I found too many bugs to continue with the Beta v4 318 base.

Weather Watcher

Dear TheLoon,

I would certainly like to continue with your beta testing program.

The only problem I really have with your Kitchen (Matt's also) is the inclusion of BatteryStatus V218, which always hangs on my Wizard on a Soft Reboot if the TrayLaunch feature is added. BatteryStatus V195 does not have this problem, and I have posted this problem before.

Other than that I include many of your OEM Apps, and "ALL IS OK".

I post here WeatherWatcher.zip if you would like to include it in your OEM's.

It contains 63 files, and is about 400kb in size, so it does clutter the Windows Directory a bit !!

Please keep up your great work.

Best regards

Tony

I've been testing your ROM for a while now. Only real issue I've been having is with the Camera. Mainly the flash, and some color issues. I'm sure that'll be fixed with an update to the software.

I'm also having trouble mixing OEM packages. Sometimes when I add packages from previous releases, buildos.exe will not load.

Android newbie looking for more in-depth rooting gotchas and unlocked s6edge on AT&T.

Hi everyone, and thanks for all the great info here. Let's assume I have my "how to root" links bookmarked and ready to go, but like a good boyscout I want to understand the gotchas/subtleties before I cliff jump. I'm also within my 15 days to exchange my s6edge AT&T for an unlocked one at Best Buy, which I plan to do today... :highfive:

(I'm technically savy, but a real newb in the world of android versions, manufacturer changes, and carrier versions and conflicts...) :crying:

1) How do I do a full ROM-level backup before beginning my adventures in rooting? Titanium Backup is no good since I need root to use it. I'd like an iPhone-style backup that I can just restore should I brick my phone.

2) After I exchange my phone I'm going to immediately airplane-mode it to prevent autoupdates (my current phone already autoupdated to unrootable OF4)... once I root how do I effectively get-latest? I'd obviously like the latest security updates, and 5.1 if I can manage it, and to maintain root.

3) AT&T doesn't have 5.1.... but if I go unlocked then can I run 5.1 on AT&T? (I've been iPhone forever -- carriers messing with you is really foreign to me). On a related note, can AT&T send some update/profile-change OTA to my phone that will conflict with updates I'm doing locally? If so any tips to avoid this?

4) An unlocked phone will perform just as well on AT&T as an AT&t phone, right?:eek:

Thanks for any info, help, and/or pointing me to resources where I can find the info, in advance. I'm technically savy, but a real newb when it comes to the gotcha-ridden ground of android and carriers.

Thanks again.

- Jason
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] dandrumheller:
It's likely any replacement phone you get at this point will have OF4, or at least OF3 on it. It will likely be unrootable out of the box.

There is no current bootloader unlock for ATT branded devices - if you are lucky enough to get a rootable device, you can run a the two roms in the ATT section. You can run XtreStoLite v 1.5 from the regular S6 section, and maybe other 5.0.2 roms from there as well, I'm not aware of any others being tried.

In either case, we will not have 5.1.1 until after ATT releases it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] JasonS6Edge:
Thanks for the info -- this is where I get confused. If it's a 925F, and I put my AT&T sim in it, it isn't an "AT&T branded device", right? So the bootloader shouldn't be all locked up by AT&T? I should be able to put any GSM sim in there and run on that network... so can't I just do what I want with the hardware at that point without AT&T controlling me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] JasonS6Edge:
How about a simpler version...

- Can I use the "download booster" function (that AT&T removed) if I have an unlocked 925F on AT&T? Can I use 5.1 on AT&T with a non-AT&T edge?

I'm trying to work out if AT&T controls all phones or just the AT&T branded phones (925A).

Thanks.
