No problemo brother:) It's nice to help each other:D

Btw, I have 2 questions that I want to ask long time ago but kept forgetting it.

1. When you use tap on the small "G" icon during the GPRS session, do you see a disconnect option? I already included the following registry to show timer and disconnect option but it's still not there. Last time, it's worked with Asus P525.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\CONTROLPANEL\PHONE]

"Flags2"=dword:16

2. Another thing is are you able to do finger scrolling on the address book, using stock ROM or cooked ROM? Not sure why it's not working on my Elfin or there is no such thing at all?:P

Cheers,

Vibranze
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
this reg entry does exist in my elfin and i do see the disconnect button.. i always saw it, in my shipped rom and also in my custom rom

yes i can do finger scrolling in both roms.. maybe u have kept the touchflo scroll off

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings]

"EnableScroll"=dword:00000001
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kokotas:
Hey vibranze!

Try with this .provxml in your OEM!

Regards!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vibranze:
Thanks Kokotas, but it's look like what I have inside the registry and I still didn't see the disconnect option.:(

I haven't tried to press an end key for 3 second, will try that later and let you know.

Cheers,

Vibranze
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vibranze:
Thanks Bro!

Weird then, I thought it is disappeared because of WM6/WM6.1 not recognize it anymore.

My bad, I also have it in my registry and I tried it just now, it is there actually, it's just that I not realise it because it is not fast, I need to press and drag harder for the contact list to move. When my friend show me on his Kaiser, it's actually very fast.

Cheers,

Vibranze
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vibranze:
Bro,

I'm not so clear about your XIP & SYS porting instruction, appreciate if you can put a screenshot as a complement to the guide? Thanks.

Cheers,

Vibranze
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
yes that will be great :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
due to increased public demand, i will surely post the guide with screenshots :D give me sometime as i am currently travelling and will try to do this over weekend
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vibranze:

Thanks for this fantastic Guide

THANKS!!! ababrekar for this fantastic guide for portin XIP and SYS, yesterday we sucefully port XIP 19701 from an hermes device to ervius kitchen for trinity.

Now we are working on SYS porting, I hope it will go fine, and soon we can have our ROM with NEW build and OS.

Thanks again, I was a little lost with XIP porting, and this guide give me a perfect guide to have sucess.

Keep doing this good work.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
:) good to know you could port nicely through this :D keep up with the porting.. also can u post a link to download the latest build shipped rom so i can port it even for elfin? isn't 19209 supposed to be the latest build?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
i have now successfully removed arcsoft mms from my rom (i never use it) and that gave me additional 2.73mb.. thanks to all good friends here on xda and vetvito from ppcgeeks

these are the entries and file i removed to get rid of shipped mms View attachment 84432

has anyone managed to get office communicator working on ppc? i installed the mobile version of communicator and it always shows me stupid error telling me to install upgraded version (i have 2007, which i think is the latest)

dude

when i open ervius Pkg Tool & select open from dump & select the XIP OUT folder nothing happen ... it just return error

I didnt click on the BuildOS yet ...

any advise???
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
read carefully when it comes to doing something with XIP, it may brick your phone
[Touch GSM ROM Development] demo05:
hi there, can i use it for add a language in a rom for my asus p535?

If yes, sow? please, i need italian language..

Thanks..
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
does this mean i need to unpack the rom to OEM, SYS & ROM ?

or i can just choose the OUT folder of the XIP that have extracted using XipPort? ... BTW if i do that i can get anything
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
this is related to xip porting in which you dont need the oem and sys folders.. you only need the xip folder which is present in bepe's kitchen.. i have also attached the pictorial now which can guide u a lil better
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
Cook your rom below 50mb and flash it to your phone :D

hey guys.. had a look at this information by NikMel.. this actually works like a charm.. i cooked a rom about 39mb and did this trick to make it 50mb and it actually flashed on my phone and i am using it :D

this is what he has found and worked out

If your cooked ROM file is smaller then 50 MB, then follow the ten step program below
1. Download XVI32 Hex Editor from here ([URL]http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm[/URL]) and open the editor
2. Open you OS.nb
3. Scroll down to the end of the file
4. Go to "Edit" -> "Insert string..." in XVI32
5. In "Insert" window select "Hex string" and type FF
6. In "Insert <n> times" part of "Insert" window select decimal and type 10000000
7. Go to "Address" -> "Goto..."
8. In "Go to" part of "Go to address" window select "hexadecimal" and type $3200000, in "Go mode" part of "Go to address" window select "absolute" and hit OK
9. Go to "Edit" and click on "Delete from cursor"
10. Save your OS.nb file, make a .nbh file and flash it to your device

Can i used these same steps on the htc vogue plus can you the links for buildos and package tool is dead....
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
i have downloaded the pictorial & have extracted both new & old xip OUT folder. I follow ur instruction but still stuck at where i start :( with same error

BTW if i do it manually, meaning that i have copied all new the Files/MSXIPKernel & Modules/MSXIPKernel to my ori XIP & do a MReloc & follow the same V & D value of ori xip.

do i need to do anything else? ... BTW i am not using a HTC dev
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
I'm trying to port 19213 build into my Elfin using Ervius PkgTool, but everytime after i chose Create_ROM_for_ELF.bat, the tool gets stuck at "xipping os.nb.payload". I've tried bepe's kitchen also, but no success. could anybody help me to point out my mistake?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
i'll update the links and sorry cant comment on vogue.. never been to that part of the rom cooking world yet :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
this should work
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
ok thanks for the answer

So do i need to see the map.txt for conflict?

how bout anything else, nk.exe etc ...

if just changing the V&D is all that i need to do then after finish with it i only need to do a xip_out.bin right?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
on elfin u dont need to do xip_out... buildxip on bepe's kitchen does it for u.. i think nk.exe is from oemxipkernel (cant remember off hand)... read what u porting from the new xip folder structure dude.. DO NOT REPLACE ANYTHING IN OEMXIPKERNEL
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
ok ill try it soon ... since i have change all file except OEMXIPKERNEL ...

too many reading of xip porting tutorial making me really confused now :(

BTW where is buildxip????

anyway thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
buildxip is an exe file used for XIP porting, u can find it in the 'Tools' folder. the kitchen will run it automatically.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
cool found it but then i cant extract header.bin from my xip.bin ... :( ... seems like too many error
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
header.bin???u only have to dump the xip.din using xipport.exe, which header.bin are you talking abt?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
now this is a file i've heard of for the first time here :eek:.. whr is it used? all this while we have been trying to get the romhdr.bin
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
My ROMs have been moved to a new thread here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=392637) to avoid confusion and crowding in this thread :D

do check out my new ROMs ;)

[Touch GSM ROM Development] MickyMax:
You're a lucky guy.... :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
i have ported 19949 build into my elfin but none of my 'X' or 'OK' buttons are inside a square. can anybody help me to solve this little bug? pls check the marked area in screenshot. the screenshot on the right side is the normal one.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
it's actually quite cool.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
it's actually quite cool.

First flash again with original unpatched dll.

If that fixes it repatch the startmenu icon again and flash and pray.

Haven't found the icon.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
ok bro, next time i flash i'll try this
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
well, i've tried again with original dll, but the problem persisted. i even tried with the SYS of 19915 build and that also had same problem. but if i use diamond's SYS, everything is fine. any other ideas bro?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
ababrekar

can u email me the 19949 xip

cruzzmz@gmail.com

thx
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
bro, the problem is resolved :)

the problem was with the shell32.exe and not with any of these dll's, mui's that i had modified. i replaced the shell32.exe of 19949 SYS with the one from 19588 SYS and this little bug is gone :D

although i replaced this file to solve the Timebomb problem with my 19949 build, but it also solved this little bug.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
cool.. ur post goes to the first as a guide for anyone who is cooking ;) so u managed to find 2 solutions in 1 :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
yeah ;)

i'm sure this 19949 is a beta version (not supposed for commercial launch i think)...and i guess 19581 and 19585 might have faced similar Timebomb problems coz those builds were not supposed to be used after commercial launch

are these the hd.dll and the os*.dll files? u can delete those two modules out of ur xip (gives u additional .07mb prog mem) without any fear. those files re only for the customer feedback function
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Blueangel69:
Hello Ababreakar

Hi there Chef.

What should i do to upgrade OS Version of ROMs i cook ?

Sould i use the option (C) and incert it in the ROM im cooking ?

Im a noob cooker.

I believe you are a busy man,but can you please help me.

Thanks in advance for all help provided.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
all the versions mentioned are upgraded thats why they re posted ;) it depends on which one u want. to go for a newer version, u will need to port the build. now to know what porting means, u will have to read and learn from the forums :) the c is the dump posted by koko and frankly i have not used his base to cook so i dont know what he's got in it. so u will have to see for urself

and remember, what u do with ur device is ur choice. i am not responsible for what happens to ur device :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
yup i have deleted the dll files, but then still i have red lines on virtual tab if using XIP Addrs Tool ...

maybe there r conflicts?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kokotas:
Hey man!

After you delete them, what command do you use for buildxip.exe?

I think it is:

buildxip.exe -b -g
;[-g] => Remove Slot 0 dll gap.

Do you proceed without any parameters changed in building xip?

Regards!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
i just proceed after deleting those modules... ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] MickyMax:
Possible to do the same thing but with XIPPort.exe ? I've deleted these two modules too but I can't recover free space... :(
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
didnt get ur question :( what do u wanna do with xipport tool? u cant recover free space, but u get additional .07mb space in available program memory
[Touch GSM ROM Development] MickyMax:
Thanks, I'll watch it.. :rolleyes:

[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
i am still stuck with conflict at this level

i have deleted the hd.dll & osaxst0.dll

done mreloc with XIP Addr Tool

used xipport to preloc, write map

changed the necessary value

BUT still stuck with conflict at coredll.dll :( anybody can help?

P/S: I am using Hermes xip.bin
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
can u upload ur xip.bin that u r trying to port and ur original xip folder or original xip.bin? also can u tell me the hermes ROM that u r trying to port from?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
well i am trying to port 20266 ... i got the xip from a chinese forum seems like they have ported it successfully to hermes

i am porting this to my zinc

BTW

where do u put the /ROM folder in the ervius's kitchen? is it like below???? seems like it will always return error that the ROM folder not found, but i have put it in the folder ....
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
yes, thats the place to put ROM folder. OEM, SYS and ROM should be at the same place.

pls use the attached XIP&romhdr.bin alongwith payload file of zinc in ROM folder and then try if it works.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
can you give me the xip.bin or xip_out.bin?

BTW what do i do with the file u gave? what do u mean by payload file of zinc? care to explain ... sorry if it is a noob question

is it natural to get the error? no /ROM folder found???
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
payload file is the one which u get after using nbsplit.exe on os.nb

there should not be an error related to ROM, if there is an error it means something is wrong. try the xip_out.bin attached.

can u show me the screenshot of what's inside the ROM folder of urs when u get the error?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
my error is in the MAP.TXT file where if u find lots of !!!! in means that u have conflict of addresses.

I usually use a tool XIP Addr Tool to do a mreloc of old & new xip

Then use xipport to undo, PReloc & write map.

Then I will inspect the MAP.TXT to see if there is conflicts.

Then change the psylast, ulRAMStart & ulRAMFree in the ROMHDR.TXT
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
no, i wanted to see the inside of ur ROM folder when u had "no /ROM folder found" error. i mean what r the files/folders inside it? do u always use ervius' buildos tool to cook?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
ok a lill bit of misunderstanding there ;)

It only have a XIP Folder & os.nb

is that correct???

BTW, the xip_out.bin, u have fixed the problem right?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
i believe u need romhdr.bin, os.nb.payload and XIP inside ur ROM folder if u r using ervius's package tool to cook
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
oh is it like that .... thanks for the info :D

BTW what was the problem with my xip porting?, could u also give me the xip.bin so that i can compare it with my last xip

Thx a lot ...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
did u try my xip_out.bin? if u've ported the XIP successfully, only then i can explain :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
ok i will try it tomorrow then ... off to bed for me now

check ur PM
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lennysh:
Can you link me to this ROM, or a 20266 ROM usable for porting?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
see previous post, i have posted the ori hermes xip.bin that u can port to ur device ... happy porting :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lennysh:
1. I was mainly referring to the SYS.

2. How do we know that this is a true version of 20266 XIP? And not just a 19949 XIP with a modified DSM to report 20266 Build Version?

3. What are the advantages of this XIP over the 19949 XIP?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cruzzmz:
1. i only have the xip file i am using the 19400 sys file over it

2. Well i dunno bout that but frm the forum it seems genuine ... it is a chinese forum that i often go to to get new xip ;)

3. I really dunno since i havent try it yet, maybe like the other builds we can just see diff in the responsive time ???
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ap10046:
I am having so many issues with my phone after the upgrade to Oreo.

GPS

GMaps

Autocorrect

No VoLTE

Poor wifi that will not switch to a stronger network

Etc

Etc

The autocorrect is simply abysmal. And no matter what anyone may give explanations for the phone behaving as illiterate as it does, there is, sorry, No excuse for it.

An iPhone 5 which is God knows how old, is almost flawless whilst typing.

This thing needs more backspace corrections than is imaginable. Why?

All the keyboards are just frustrating. Maybe SwiftKey is a little better than the rest. But still.

Let's not go into cache clearing, factory wipes, delete app data, all excuses for something that just doesn't work very well.

And paying the colossal amount for a phone that one has to make this many compromises is not acceptable.

Just not very happy with the Note 8.

Example. I typed this on the phone

Frustrating = fruatrating

Typed = tiypes

Compromises = cimpromisas (??)

Imaginable = imigatble (WT..!)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] cfclay:
I use Gboard from Google for a keyboard, and have very fast pace of accurate swiping for text
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ap10046:
I actually prefer Gboard to SwiftKey. But the word predictions and spellings were unacceptably wrong most of the time.

I don't use swiping or shortcuts or abbreviations whilst typing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GuestK0079:
The etc etc part makes me think that you are totally dissatisfied with the phone, so yeah, you're really better off buying an other brand phone. This whining here will get you nowhere.

Just my 2 cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ap10046:
Thanks man.

Your advice is much appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] charmz2k2:
Agreed...

I've tried going back and forth to the Samsung keyboard. I found it was really good on the note 7 but on this phone it's rubbish..

I agree on the Google maps issue too, if I'm using it for sat nav, I might as well not.. it doesn't seem to locate me accurately.

For what it is, the phone shouldn't have these minor, but annoying issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] JohnPyn:
Best keyboard imo is Fleksy, it has insane autocorrect and if the corrected word isn't the one you were looking for with a simple swipe you will get the right one 99% of the time unless you typed something completely wrong. I really love it, I've tried all of them but only with fleksy I can type correctly even by missing every single letter on a word
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] eraursls1984:
I've tried several, but the main three I've used are Gboard (absolutely terrible, but fast), Samsung's stock keyboard ( far better than Gboard, but still lacking in the autocorrect), and Swiftkey (absolutely the best autocorrect, but within the past few years became so bad it would freeze constantly. I wish Samsung or Google would buy Swiftkey and use their own keyboard with Swiftkey's autocorrect.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] JohnPyn:
I can't help you with your other issues as I don't have any of those on my note, I've never used samsung keyboard since I always change my dpi and set it so small that keyboard is unusable. But I would advise you to try Fleksy, I find it it's really good but it does have a learning curve but I honestly type super fast with it. Or also Minuum if I'm not wrong has a really good auto correct with the english language. Not so good with italian, but I still feel Fleksy is far superior because of the swipe to change auto corrected word. Still, the learning curve can be tough for some, all my friends who tried it didn't like it because you kinda have to stick with it for a couple of days in order to really get used to the "gestures". But if you really hate the others try it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ap10046:
Totally Agree!

GBoard is the best, but the autocorrect is simply shocking!

Swiftkey is slow. Can it be speeded up? The key delay, I mean?
