As you can see I made a hard copy of one of the posts of anichillus!

This is his HyperCore Kitchen and I made some minor changes to make it work for our Polaris!

HyperCore

PUBLIC BETA​

The most complex KITCHEN a begginer cook may ever need.

Easy to use but also very complex, it can be usefull to anyone.

Why ask and wait for others to make the perfect ROM for you when you got the power to do it yourself ?

~. Base ROM .~​

* NO BASE ROM ! but ANY ROM !

~. Best part .~​

* IT USES TADZIO TOOLS

* YOU CAN OPTIMISE EXE's and DLL's, SO IF YOU WANT EVEN MORE SPACE, YOU'LL GET IT

* IT CAN BE USED ON ANY DEVICE WITH VERY LITTLE MODIFICATIONS !!!!!

* NO LONGER LIMITED BY ANYONE OR ANYTHING.

* YOU CAN COOK ANY ROM YOU LAY YOUR EYES ON VERY EASY

* IT HAS ADVANCED ERROR CHECK

~. It will install .~​

Core folder on the system drive. Some tools and settings required.

HyperCore folder on the Desktop. There is your kitchen. You can move it wherever you want.

The place where you actually use it is HyperCore\Panel.

~. How To .~​

- First of all edit the file named "Device.txt" located on the "Core\ACK\" folder located on systemdrive (mostly drive C:\)

Edit as following.

If you have a :

Save it and then you're good to go.

It's much similar to the old Core kitchen...so those of you who used it ...will feel comfortable with it. Regenerated batch scripts, better, and i hope bug free.

~. Guides .~​

* Hermes Cookbook - THANKS to sambartle

* My Way of cooking

* How to ADD/REMOVE programs -THANKS to mfrazzz

~. Notes .~​

Since this is still a public BETA, I await your problems/ideas/concepts.

If you spot a bug, i suggest to send me a PM as well as a post on the thread.

I suggest having a ROM to make a backup in case you do something wrong

I created and tested this tool for WindowsMobile 6 , but WM5 should work OK too.

~. Download .~​

Very good job!!! Thank you so much for spreading this info to all of us!!! ;)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] wonderiuy:
Nice work man! Finally we have it also for Polaris
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NikMel:
have fun!:D
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] schaggo:
Thanks alot for your efforts. I have to say though, the kitchen doesnt work at all for me on my Vista Ultimate x86.

I somewhat got it to work by editinig some of the paths int he BAT files (see below for examples) but it's nearly impossible to track down all paths, I get "could not be found..." and paths errors all the time...

Examples:

DUMP_ROM.BAT, when the working directory is %systemdrive%\Core\Batch\, the provided cd /../../ on line 4 leads to %systemdrive% where the batch stops because IF EXIST "Extract\Source\%rom%" etc breaks because the folders \EXTRACT\etc do - in fact- not exist in %systemdrive%

Extract.bat, the working directory is

%systemdrive%\Core\Batch\Links\ and the provided cd /../../ on line 4 leads to a path error when you try to launch the folder \Extract which doesnt exist in %systemdrive%\Core of course.

And a general question: I didnt really think it through, but it seems illogical and more prone to errors to me: why is there so much stuff doubled, once in HyperCore and once in the systemdrive\Core directory...?
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NikMel:
You did install this kitchen and not extracted?

There is no call to an etc directory where do you see that?

Just some file are double and this is how anichillus made it.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] schaggo:
Oh wow, I didnt expect an answer so soon...! Thanks alot!

There is no etc directory of course, etc means and so on... I figured everybody understands etc... my bad, sorry :o

What I meant with \Extract\etc is if the script can't reach \Extract it cant reach any subdirectory either...

Ok, now to the kitchen. No, I didnt use WinRAR to extract it, I executed the EXE and it got extracted to C:\Core\... and the HyperCore folder gets moved to the desktop after the extraction is done. So the directories are just fine, they are how they are supposed to be. But - and that I suppose is the problem - when I check the properties of the shortcuts in the HyperCore\Panel directory, their working directory (the directory the script does its actions in) is the directory the target batch script lays at and not the directory where the shortcut is placed. So the batch tries to access empty, non-existant folders all the time... :(

Example: Shortcut in Desktop\HC\Panel\Extract will execute a batch script, but the working directory of the batchscript isnt Desktop\HC\Panel\Extract where it got executed from but its the directory where the BAT effectively is: C:\Core\Tools\Extract

So placing a cd \..\..\ in the batch file won't change the working directory two levels up to Desktop\HC\Panel\Extract but it changes two levels up from the folder the batch lies: to C:\Core\Tools\Extract

Do you use Vista too? It could be that the relative (and correct) paths get updated in the shortcuts when you move the directory to another place. Could it be that this new "feature" exists in Vista? I guess I have to try it in an XP installation in a virtual machine...

<edit>

I found the cause: a cd / changes to the root directory! so cd /../../ will result in C:\ which of course is wrong! I started editing the batch files and I'm replacing all cd /.. with cd .. and now its working!

Check it out and try yourself in your command line tool:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6000]
Copyright (c) 2006 Microsoft Corporation. Alle Rechte vorbehalten.
C:\>cd "Program Files"
C:\Program Files>cd Adobe
C:\Program Files\Adobe>cd "Reader 8.0"
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0>[B][COLOR=red]cd ..[/COLOR][/B]
[B][COLOR=red]C:\Program Files\Adobe>[/COLOR][/B]
C:\Program Files\Adobe>cd "Reader 8.0"
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0>[B][COLOR=red]cd /[/COLOR][/B]
[B][COLOR=red]C:\>[/COLOR][/B]

</edit>
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NikMel:
Dear schaggo,

I'm in XP and it works as is.

True when you use "cd /" it gets you back to the root of drive.

C:\etc..\etc..\etc..\>cd / goes to C:\

D:\etc..\etc..\etc..\>cd / goes to D:\

etc..:)

The path issue is a VISTA behavior so you better try it in XP (virtually or hard installed).
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NikMel:
Desktop\HC\Panel\Extract is a directory and all the batch file to extract a rom file are in that directory.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] alanxzg:
Thanks for sharing this!
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] schaggo:
Well yeah, I know where the files are.

But hey, if there are cd /../../ commands all over the batch files (check them yourself), it would mean that almost every batch file is trying to access the \Extract folder on C:\ at some point, which just ISNT placed in C:\ on any system!

And you say the cd / command produces the exact same behaviour on XP, then it can't be a Vista issue.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NikMel:
schaggo,

I don't know if it's me or you but we talk parallel and we don't listening to each other.:o

You better try it on a XP system.:D
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] alanxzg:
Thanks a lot.

It works when i changed "/../" to "../" in my Vista.

It seems some ROM can't dump well, such as "Polaris_WWE_0.67_Opera_bepe"
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NikMel:
alanxzg,

Bepe is using a method to bundle all rgu/dsm files in one.

This is the reason.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] anichillus:
Hey, I just found out about this :)

For it to work on Vista you'll need to edit all the batch files located in C:\Core\Batch so that instead of cd /../ or cd /../../ ...and so on will be cd ../ or cd ../../

More exactly remove first / after cd.

Don't worry about how it's made...it was the only possible way to link icons and folders that are dynamic. You can move the HyperCore folder wherever you want on your harddrive. It will work.

I am guessing you added the new IMGFS tools to it so it works with WM6.1 ?

This version also works on Kaiser...since from what I know same arguments are used. Only difference is the RUU and possibly others. Anyway the HyperCore 2 is under way .

Cheers !

XIP

i have also searched around, and says in places that it's not always needed (XIP) but that was confusing when can't build with out it,

and if it helps, my base rom came from the wiki - roms - orginal flash by someone, can't remember off top of my head

thank you again

.net

hi guys...

I've modified my rom, removed few things added a few, one at a time make locating any errors easy but...

my problem is I removed .net 2 by replacing it with 3.5 from a cab with package creator, well some .net apps work fine others say there components missing.

the way I understood it each up grade contained the previous version's information, is this incorrect?

cheers for any help.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] epimazzo:
Are you working directly into Kitchen?

If so, use a good .NET3.5 pack instead install a cab over. More safe and reliable.

I can provide it for ya if you wish...;)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] _Frosty_:
if you could, thanks...

and i take it you mean "directly into the kitchen" editing the os and sys folders (deleting and adding in them)

ps cant really remember if i used a package from another kitchen and copied it or extracted a cab and put that there, done it a while ago now
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] epimazzo:
Grab 3.5 .NEt version here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/134109255/NetCF3.zip

Then, unzip, move to your kitchen in SYS folder and voilla!;)

Happy cooking!

Directly in kithcen means you can have it both in sys or oem folders. I normally use this kind of pack in sys cause is system related and is automatically loaded.

Once in a while, I work with cabs from version to version. Depends. I use WinCE manager to build new OEM packages very often from a reliable cab.:p

Cheers!:cool:
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] _Frosty_:
should i have left .net 2 there, or was i right in replacing it?
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] epimazzo:
The right thing is keep only one version in sys or oem folder. You can leave both in OEM folder only if you use option.xml to choose between one or another later when Buildos.exe is in process. Go for 3.5 definitely. It's faster than 2.0.

Good luck.:cool:
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] notebook:
Thank you for the great job but I have aproplem "after I put the NBH file in the source directory ,and try to dump the rom"it gives me that error :

"the system cannot find the batch label specified - " after I press enter the rom disappears from the source folder

What mistake I had done
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] _Frosty_:
hi guys, i have two questions for you. one has been mentioned in different forums, but not quite answered.. the other i couldn't find anything on..

1) disabling the security check for cabs etc..

one or two of my cabs wont fit in to my rom nicely, if i use package creater and add into the kitchen, some have files by the same name as others, which causes buildos to fail, without renaming files and editing the init files (being lazy) thought just add the CAB files to "Config_AP.txt" and install them, works if they are signed, if not no install... i tried "Default_Signed_DisableSecurity" as a package and a cab, neither worked, which thought ok, so i edited the default.hv -> rgu and changed HKLM\Security\Policies\Polices\0000101a = 1

but on updating rom, a quick check shows it set as 0

so any ideas?

the other question is rgu's and, for lack of better word, nested quotes.

cooking mortscript into my rom, used package creater, dropped in to oem, run buildos, error.

The rgu says..

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MortScript\Shell\Open\Command]

@=""Windows\\MortScript.exe" "%1""

buildos doesn't like that, so i changed it to

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MortScript\Shell\Open\Command]

@="Windows\\MortScript.exe %1"

passes fine, but on updating the rom, files give an error, waiting for sd to be ready (or simular), when i change the reg to "windows\Mortscript.exe" "%1", all is good... so how do i get around this? are ' acceptable? not quote it at all?

thanks for any help thrown this way

cheers

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] khocking:
In the absence of root and Adaway, I searched and found a lot of references to DNS66. I tried it but it doesn't work. I don't need it for browsing as I use Opera, but I would like it for apps.

I have found that a few apps that I've used on my old Tab S now don't work on the S4 and wondered if anyone has found an ad blocker that works without root?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] Yemble:
uBlock Origin for various browsers. Not sure about other apps though.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] tool2269:
Doesn't the Samsung browser allow to add content blockers in the "extensions" in the settings? My s9 does and that's where you add the various ad blockers..adblock fast, adblock plus, disconnect, adguard several others..

Edit.. just realized you're asking about Opera.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] khocking:
Actually I'm asking about other apps like games. Opera has a built-in ad blocker that works perfectly and you don't need any third party apps.

There's been rough instructions on how to root in the Q&A section for a bit now, and I put together a little guide after using those instructions on9 9-12-18.

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s4/how-to/guide-rooting-wifi-version-galaxy-tab-t3841763

After rooting, you can use magisk modules or adaway or anything else.

I also remember reading that without root it's possible to use secure folder to block all ads on samsung devices (i didn't look into it), there's also a bunch of non-root adblocking apps available that require you to run a notification all the time.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] khocking:
I'm going to wait to root until the systems have been streamlined. I'm also leery of breaking the warranty less than a week into it. :)

In the meantime, I've tried Blokada which seems to be working without too much affect on battery life etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] clubtech:
Try Adguard. The free version works for any browser. The paid version also blocks ads in apps.

So dns666 actually worked for me, but took a few refreshes. Could take time to clear the cached DNS entries maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] yourmumsbootloader:
dns66 works great. there is a little key icon on status bar though. to get rid of it, swipe the notification until the gear appears and go down to VPN and turn it off so the key won't show up. also, if DNS66 is not blocking ads you might need to update your hosts and add some if applicable. you need to update it regularly because sometimes one or two do not update on their own and it seems to throw the whole thing off.

If you simply want to test gcam than u can follow this guide. i have tested it and it works on both miui 9 and 10. and doesnt break OTA. i even got updated from global 9.6 stable to 10 stable while having this and all was ok. its the safest way u can use gcam without root or anything.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m00nlighter:
Dude, just wait for the Pie ROMs to become mature.

Oreo ROMs for Titan were simply not on par with Nougat ones, and a debloated stock Marshmallow ROM with ZRAM disabled will beat both Nougat and Oreo ROMs in terms of performance and stability.

So for now it's either stock or Pie, Oreo is history.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CMKdaGreatest:
But I want to use Oreo, they ain't that bad for me. Could you please help me??
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m00nlighter:
Detailed instructions are below. Please don't ask for further explanations, this is as simple as I can make it.

It's somewhat complicated and requires adb access and root permissions, so you have to be rooted.

Moreover, you have to have some free space on /system partition (I'd say around 300 megabytes) because ALL packages (apps) will be recompiled, including system apps. As for the data partition, it is hard to tell, depends on what apps you have. I recommend starting with minimum required apps.

First, disable the JIT compiler

Second, clear profile data and remove compiled code for all packages

Third, force compile all packages using "speed" compiler profile (AOT-compiles all methods in app code)

And finally, add/edit the following two properties to system.prop:

This will permanently disable the JIT compiler.

This will force AOT compilation for apps, including updates and new installs.

After that, reboot and enjoy your FAST Oreo ROM :)

Why JIT compiler should be disabled on old devices like Titan?
