Questions

(Sorry Guys I am just a noob), I want to customise my folders i.e. I want my folders to have my choice icons and I don't really understand how to do that at Kitchen level. Any Helps will be appreciated. (Any easy ways? Not good with coding & Stuff:eek::o)

Second I have cooked a ROM, Upon Testing I have discovered that no CABs Install?? Anyone with idea on why this might be?

Third: How do I remove the BETA expiry print at Kitchen level?

Otherwise Thanks a Lot Guys without you, I would'nt be able to have this Fast and extremely touch sensitive bata ROM of mine for Me

how about to create opera mini shortcut for M2D Internet tab?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Take a look at the default initflashfiles.dat

(Games folder)

Or the Office provisioning.provxml files to find out how the icon.lnk files are created to give a folder an Icon.

hey guys i want to set the in call volumen. Every time i use the phone for making or receiving a call i have to turn the volumen up.

What reg i have to change?

btw im using htc mega volumen

thanks in advance.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] chota_shivaji:
In-call Volume

- I am using Opal Volume Control in my ROMs. Attaching here for your reference.

- With this I need to make the volume max for the very first time the call comes. After that it is all good and stays at max (even after multiple reboots).
[Touch GSM ROM Development] honcorrd:
There is no *.rgu file in this package. So is there the two tab when you slide the volumen hardware button (System and Ring)?

In the Mega Package there is a rgu file
[Touch GSM ROM Development] chota_shivaji:
- I guess 2 tabs are seen when you are not in a call i.e. no phone call is in progress.

- When the call is progress and you slide the hardware volume button, only 1 screen is seen. I think this is the in-call volume setting.

- With the package I posted, I have to make this volume max for the very 1st call after flashing the ROM.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] honcorrd:
Yes thats true... That is what i want to know if the package you attach has the two tabs.

Thanks for you help :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Yup that's the way it's supposed to work in Touch Pro and Devices after that.

[B]Sticky[/B]

Hi Moderator,

- Can we make this thread sticky?

- I believe this thread has loads of information for new cooks. :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
You mean make my own thread Sticky?

I wouldn't like to give the impression that Cooking is easy.

I'll take another look at the current Stickies.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
The Avoid Confusion sticky has a link to this thread, correct? Then we can just leave it as it is.

I think the main thing we would need as a minimum for stickies is this:

- An explanation on Elf and Elfin and terms used (CID, Model ID, page pools, shipped vs cooked ROMs, etc.)

- A guide on how to flash, and what to flash

- Explain the diffs between Hard SPL / USPL / White screen flashing

- Unbrickers

- Link to cooking thread and kitchen

This will prevent the recent surge of bricked Elf threads ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Yeah i was thinking about those two SPL stickies and how those could get merged into one maybe. The less the better.

Personally i always like to see at least one Kitchen thread, one Roll Up thread with Issues and One Unlocking thread.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] thatguy1982:
thinking about cooking for touch and maybe later touch 3g

woah, my thread got merged overnight lol. ok I get the hint, I shoud read this one and then post any questions lol. I'll be back when iv done so,

thanks a lot, ur all great :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Hypercore is a little outdated, most of us haven't been using that for three years now.

There's loads of newer replacement kitchens out there.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thatguy1982:
Have found the basics of what i need to know, still not confident to try on my elf yet as i need it untill my touch 3g is fixed.

i can learn the basics with the device emulator kitchen and build confidence tho so ..

count me in :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] saurabh88:
but u can easily learn from QPPC video tut of ervius kitchen for cooking..
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thatguy1982:
yeah but im scared to flash my elf with a cooked rom until i have a fair idea that i havent screwed up lol. was planning to use hypercore have been having a play with it, but the man just said its outdated.

i learn by doing, and if i get stuck by watching or asking lol :), but i will look into ervius kitchen right now ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] saurabh88:
buddy once u hard spl your elf it will never break,this is my gaurantee..

u can flash any rom...

but once u flash any stock rom then u have to again hspl it lol....:D:D:eek::eek:
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thatguy1982:
i was wondering that, so if i try cooking and it all goes pear shaped what your saying is il ALWAYS be able to access bootloader mode right ?

in witch case il give it a bash with the real thing, just really dont want to screw up my phone i like it lol, and till i fix my touch 3g , shes all i got lol :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Just be sure never to include IPL or SPL into the rom your flashing :) Those can leave you screwed up seriously.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] saurabh88:
yes but once he dump the stock rom with EVK,then EVK will eat that spl or ipl:D:D;):p.

so he should not worry about such things..only when he flash the stock rom again then he has to rethink the hspl:p:p..
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thatguy1982:
that's what I thought but now its been confirmed by one of the main men my fear has gone :).

also, im using a spl that has overwrite protection, so in theory even if im half asleep and accidently cook in a spl\ipl, as long as im using RUU to flash it shoud always refuse to flash I think.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thatguy1982:
true why didn't I think of that lol.

from the limited playing around iv done most kitchens only work with the os portion, im so stupid at times.

I'll av a go at cooking some time in the near future :)

Problem Rom Development

Hi All,

I am trying to build a Elfin Rom with Latest 24618 build and included EXT from Latest Mega 6.5 Official Rom.

The problem is that I am able to boot with New Rom, but it hangs with white screen on welcome screen if I am using Visual Kitchen. I have used Oskitchen and I passed the Welcome screen by entering calibration Data Inside the kitchen. I am able to boot but not able to use any functions. touch screen gives me heptic feedback that's it nothing else is happening.

Please help me to solve this issue, is this the problem with the new builds or Ext packages from Mega creating a problem. No Idea.......:mad:

Please Help me Out
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Well i searched and searched.

And first i though you where just full of **** (you know how angry you can get when you don't get it) and that you meant 37B557.

And when i found out that the offset 37B557 stands for the first block then 8,9 and then indeed A "08". I thought i was full of ****.

It's tested going to start writing tute now.

How to Change PagePool In Rom Before Flashing

How to change your PagePool Size

First let me say that this is one of the most dangerous things you can do. So bes ure to have a spare Stock rom for your device around. And even that might not be enough.

First download XVI32.exe from:

http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm

But you can use another Hexeditor (Winhex doesn’t do Files bigger than 200k or something efter trial period) And i like using free tools.

After downloading and opening this program go to “C:\Core\HyperCore\Build\ROM”

And drop the “OS.nb” into “XVI32”.

In XVI32 click “Adress > Goto..”. Change the settings in the next screen if they don’t match. Hexadecimel Checked, Absolute Checked.

In the search field put “$37B55A” and search

If that doesn’t work manually scroll down to 37B557.

It should look something like this:

http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee270/Noonski76/22-Jun-2007_HxD.jpg

The most important part is in the values below.

4MB = 00 00 40 00

6MB = 00 00 60 00

8MB = 00 00 80 00

12MB = 00 00 C0 00

Click on the block with the two numbers in my case it was “08”.

In “XVI32” click “Edit > OverWrite String”. Be sure the settings are set to “Hex String” and Unicode off (haven’t tried it with on but i fit worked why change it.)

Enter the two numerical value for the pagepool you want and press oke.

Save the file and proceed cooking as ussual.

You don’t need to change this everytime your going to cook a new ROM now.

Please verify this working for you as this needs to be exact.

The most usefull source for this tutorial was the info from

Hello, there is a thing that I have not even obtained and it is to create a file NBH, which it contains rom and extended_rom,.

I have 2 files: Rom.nb and rom_ext.nb, the first one is the rom and the second one her ext_rom, with the program htcr.exe (Dark Simpson), I indicate him in system: Rom.nb and in ExtRom: rom_ext.nb, create to me the file NBH but once in the pda the extrom does not work, is There any way of doing it?

What is what I harm?

Greetings
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Questions:

How big is your storage memory in total?

Do you have the Auto Run Files and the rgu files to run Autorun and the lines in intitflashes to copy the needed files to \Extended_Rom\

You can find the correct values in boot.rgu i thought.

And what do you want to do with the Ext Rom?

Let's sauy that the files in your ext rom are 5MB.

The ext rom would still take of 10MB of your storage space.

If you use Fake ext rom EOM package the files might even become smaller and still take up less space in rom as the copied versions don't get counted as doubles.

Hi guys, I have some problem with pagepool. I cooked new rom (based on 2.20.707.1B), and I changed pagepool size to 6MB. After flash it, everything goes fine, free Ram is about 24MB, but after softreset it goes back to 8 MB Pagepool and free RAM is about 21 MB.In my first ROM it worked fine. Does anybody know, what could be wrong? Thanx

EDIT - I tried to only extract ROM (2.20.707.1B), the only thing I changed was PagePool size (to 6MB) and built it back, but the same problem. It seem like there is some bug in this ROM. It is impossible to change Pagepool. After softreset, pagepool goes back and its RAM is about 20-21MB
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
That sounds almost impossible. But i'll be checking this Rom out to soon.

Do you have a link to this Rom?

Sorry to be lazy but keeping up with my threads and cokking is taking a way time researching XDA.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Xtriny:
here you are ;)

http://www.dopodasia.com/download/R...7.1B_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_BLUE_Ship_Reduced.exe
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Yes there is.

You can't make a folder structure in an OEM package.

remove the squares at the end and beginning of the initflashes file.

The reason you don't need a folder structure is because the Iniflashes.txt file tells Windows where the files need to go and the folders then get created at the end of flashing. The flashing sequence does nothing more then dump EVERYTHING into windows folder. Iniflashes.txt gets merged into iniflashes.dat by Buildos and After flash the installation starts reading it.

@Noonski: Would it be possible for you to cook an original no SPL, no ExtRom version of the new 2.20 WWE Rom? I thought Bram_smulders was working on it, but there has been no update, apart from the touch_dual version for Elf. Much appreciated!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Xtriny:
So I tried both "via activesync" pagepool changers, as provided by vippie and by shark, but tha same. After softreset its RAM is still about 20MB. That sucks..
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
I will do this weekend.

First i'm going to make a normal bigstorage with added certificates and now SPL and ****. so everyone can start cooking but mostly testing it. (Unless someone beats me to the punch it's still the start of the week). First thing of course to test is Keyboard Notification bug, Pagepool switching back and multitabs Third Boot Freeze. It could be that the adress has changed but using the Pagepool tutorial we'll find out. Unless Xtriny can check the adress. If the adress has changed we need to change the Pagepool Smartchanger .bat files.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Xtriny:
I'm going to play with pagepool.....Original value in pagepool's address in hexeditor i 00 00 20 00 and the pagepool size is 8MB - it is a little bit strange, isnt it?

EDIT - I tried to change original value...00 00 20 00 is 8MB in original, I changed it to 00 00 10 00 and again - after flash it worked (pagepool = 4MB and 26MB free RAM!!! the same outcome when value chaned to 00 00 60 00), but after softreset it goes back to 8MB PP and 20 MB RAM. omfg

Another thing - it doesnt matter, which pagepool size I set in HexEditor. When I tried 4MB or 6MB PP size, free RAM after flash was nearly 26MB, after softreset 20-21MB in both cases

[Touch GSM ROM Development] mikkelnl:
You might want to post this in a separate thread, people will like this but might miss your post here :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
SPL : Secondary Program Loader

it is the bootloader

But someone else might want to answer that one, goes as bit beyond my knowledge.

Flashing the SPL from the original Dopod ROM woulld CID lock your device. You would only be able to flash Dopod ROM's in future or you would need to unlock your touch again with eg. USPL.

the smart-dialing and 3G video call button

The things you did is very good

I was trying to cook my ROM, but I found there are many much more professionals than me, so I started to think about changing the setting of some tools inside the ROM like the dialpad to redesign it to include the smart-dialing and 3G video call button like this Picture:

so from where I can get the smart-dialing sources? and does anyone has any tools or ideas to help?

[Touch GSM ROM Development] iii_see_tagpi_run_iii:
nbh files

i just wanted to ask, is it really normal that any .nbh file that is cooked with a file size of lower than 50mb would result in an error in flashing?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Vale46:
Filesize makes no difference between a good flash, and a bad one. The skills of the cook that made the particular ROM (and I'm not dissing the cooks now), and the skills of the flasher are the main source of errors
[Touch GSM ROM Development] iii_see_tagpi_run_iii:
then im really doing something wrong... may i ask when would be the best time to remove programs from the rom when cooking and are there any precautions i should look out for like dll files maybe? i always get an invlid file seize error when flashing:(
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Vale46:
I would guess the best time to remove programs would be when all the packages are split up in OEM and SYS folders, after building with pkgtool. When removing .dll's you should always be carefull, especially when removing from the SYS dir. I haven't gone as far, but I do know that removing them is sometimes not enough. Certain initflash files should also be edited to update the new filestructure or filesize of replaced files, before proceeding to cook. An experienced cook should correct me on this if I'm wrong.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Xtriny:
This is may way of removing -adding apps.

1.extract the ROM

2.Select what you want to add or remove

3. In total commander open OEM Package in first window and extracted rom in seond window

4.find every file, which is in oem package, in extracted ROM and delete it - when not every file in OEM package is in ROM too

5. if in OEM Package is .rgu file, you have to update .rgu file in the ROM too - it is usualy placed in folder, where you've remove files. The sam with initflashfiles (Be very carefuly)

6.place new OEM package to OEM folder and run BuildOS, if there are any duplicates (errors). If yes, delete them in ROM (not in OEM), if not, you can go to the next Package.

When I want only to remove anything, I use OEM package of it anyway, for control
