I am doing a guide in MS Word, but I think eventually HTML is going to be the way to go.

I'll try to get it posted tonight.

In the mean time, if you can elaborate on the steps (specific / explicit), that would be helpful.

... for example, do you use XIPPORT or the packaging function in PkgToolsBuildos ... or are they the same (PkgToolsBuildos calls to XIPPORT)?

How do you get around errors when M'Reloc won't accept the entries that you paste in?

Best regards,

-boggsie
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
im currently using XIPPORT because it makes rebuilding so much easier, as for being the same idk but the only thing i use PkgTools for is to extract my OEM folder and keep that safe somewhere. As for errors on the M'Reloc, i only ever get errors on hd.dll and osaxst0.dll which i have read where rom specific and not needed anyway.

ALSO, check the first post for a little tool kit i made of all the the tools im using in 1 rar file plus a direct link to Hex Workshop.

If you can send me the file i will add pictures in the appropiate spots.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
Can you point me to the dictionary of Windows Mobile Development terms and I'll be happy to make the updates! :D
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
Thanks for the link to the thread listing the 20273 rapidshare file(s) ... As I suspected, they're all OS.nb files, which I'm not inclined to trust.

Do you or anybody within shouting distance know if the RUU/WWE is floating around and if so, a PM link would be oh so nice!

Best regards,

-boggsie
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
I appreciate the look-see and the feedback.

Now I see your edits ... let me clarify; the guide I want to put together is being composed for a (relative) beginner with the understanding that they are starting with RUU/WWE files and not cobbled together or butchered OS.nb files that came from who knows where. Once the method is understood and repeatable with a known-quantity (RUU/WWE files from HTC), then they can venture off down dark paths. :D

... which is why, in the guide I list two specific RUU/WWE files ...

RUU_Vogue_TELUS_WWE_3.07.661.1_Radio_3.41.00_Ship.exe (19208)

RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.37.405.1_Radio_1.00.25.03_Ship.exe (19591)

... and am moving in the direction of providing somewhat explicit directions on how to get from point-a to point-b ...

I am getting an error with XIPPort anyone know whats causing it? "ERROR! Unknown o32 region flags:d0000040"
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
The only times I have seen errors with XIPPort.exe is when a) I haven't pointed it to a valid OUT or DUMP directory and b) when I get the wrong version of pkgcommon.dll in the same directory as XIPPort.exe.

Best regards,

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
You can ignore this error. This occurs on newer devices. It's safe to ignore. Basically, there are changes on newer devices that the old xipport.exe does not recognize, but it causes no harm.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] gguruusa:
There are plenty of true diamond roms and kitchens for the vogue.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
ok, thanks man sounds good. I have M'reloced everything and checked the maps no !!! at all then transfered it exported it to xip_out.bin and injected that into os.nb.payload and then used nbhgen to rebuild my rom but its still 19208.... IDK WHAT IM DOING WRONG this is really frustrating. I dont understand how if i replaced all the files how it could still be the old build.... PLEASE someone help me.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
Can you provide a little bit of narrative around what you touched on?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
Are you replacing all of the MSXIPKernel Files and Modules? Only one DSM is responsible for the new version number in about screen...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
yes i replaced everything.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
Only one DSM under Files is responsible for the version number.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
ok ill look into it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
Package the XIP you are porting from. You need every file/module from MSXIPKernel folders and MSXIPKernelLTK folders. Including every DSM. The only files you really really do not need are hd.dll, and the osaxt0 dll.... Make sure you've grabbed all of those..
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
ok i did that, and dumped it booting now... Is it normal when you dump it into the os.nb.payload that the file size doesnt change?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
Yes, the XIP occupies the same set amount of space in the os.nb. This is why if you dump it the proper way using the hex cut-out method, the xip.bin you get will be bigger..because you grabbed the entire xip space, not just what was taking up with files/modules...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
ok kool, rom is still not updated..... I dont get it, this time since all the files where the same in the rom i simply mreloc'd the files with the original setting from the donor rom and copied the OEM folders over and its still 19208... im dumping to my os.nb.payload of my DONOR rom is this correct. i dont understand why this is happening. it seems like its not doing anything..

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] vetvito:

Are you sure you have a different rom build?

Are you sure you replaced MIXIPKernal?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
yes and yes. Vet would you be so kind to help me one on one in like msn or gmail chat or something?> PLEASE man i would really apprieciate it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
...... might want to grab a new xip to make sure......
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
i did i extracted it from the diamond ruu... its like 4 mb so i know its dif then my orriginal. lennysh are you able to help me one on one? please..
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
Are you sure you got it from an RUU ?

This is an RUU ... it contains everything for flashing a ROM ...

RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.37.707.1_Diamond_52.26a.25.09_1.00.25.03_Ship.exe

The reason that I asked, is that in a search for the RUU for 20273, I was led to a thread where only the OS.nb was being presented as an RUU/WWE.

Best regards,

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
Im not using 20273 im using RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
GOOD NEWS!!!! I, will the help of Lennysh have succesfully ported the 20273 build. THANKS everyone who helped me!!! I will try to post a detailed tut tom. if its ok with Lennysh. GOODNIGHT all im going to bed.

EDIT: only problem is the contacts program doesnt launch... anyone know where contacts is located in the sys folder?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
Did you or were you able to find a RUU/WWE source for the 20273 build?

You have my e-mail - a quick narrative of the steps would help me to get the structure of the steps into the guide and start working on detail.

Best regards,

-boggsie

I think the right soft-key maps to contacts via:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113]

@="Contacts"

"Open"="\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Contacts.lnk"
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
Actually, that is wrong. There is no 113 link unless you make one. The default points to :MSContacts when it's not specified otherwise in the registry. See below:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS]
"0"="Contacts"
"1"=":MSPOUTLOOK contacts"
"2"=dword:1
"3"=dword:0

And that points to the below:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSPOUTLOOK]
"0"="MSPOutlook" ; class name
"1"="poutlook.exe" ; exe to launch
"2"=dword:1 ; perf hint (RAI_PERF_*)
"3"=dword:0 ; app type (?)

So basically it translates to "poutlook.exe contacts"
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
thanks saved me some time lol but the way i did was much simpler than this and took about 10 minutes. I see where contacts is in registry, where is it in the SYS folder though, when i click contacts, nothing happens.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] gguruusa:
LOL

If you have a way that is RELIABLE and simpler, do tell. As you just struggled through your first port and apparently don't know or just learned hex math (page 3, this thread), I can't wait to be enlightened.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
If you want to be a jerk about this then ill keep it to myself. Lennysh showed me his method in which i only reloced one module which was in the oem.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
I believe the overriding goal of the project (as I saw it) was to assemble (and publish) a very detailed guide ... GGuruUSA has put together a fairly detailed set of steps; the most detail I have ever seen in an open forum message ... of course, my google may not have led me to the best examples.

At any rate, perhaps what you have to offer could prove to be helpful / useful ... after all, it did work, didn't it?

Best regards,

-boggsie
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
Yes it did work. im working on recreating it now. Lennysh sent me the files that he must have worked on so i need to wait on him to tell me what he did exactly to the file so i can recreate it.

After further review of guru's instructions, this appears to be somewhat what lenny did. He just did all the hard work for me i guess. I was wrong im sorry. If you want i can upload the already modified 20273 out folder for you to make it a whole lot easier.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] gguruusa:
I'm familiar with Lenny's steps....they are similar to what I posted. Probably the biggest difference is he uses dumprom32 to create the out dirs rather than xipport. I'm not sold on that idea and it doesn't save any time to speak of (it does let you use batch files to do the first group of steps, however, which is why Lenny likes it). Your experience with porting was "faster" because your base and donor xips were extremely similar. Sometimes you get lucky. You were very lucky.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
Yes i was, i just got all the bloat ware out of my rom im not working on adding my oems.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
Actually, my steps equal yours... Dumprom32 doesn't get used except in my kitchen, which is non-functional until Bepe releases a new buildxip. So I don't even use it yet. That is a totally new adventure... Which, I can't wait to start using.:D
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fayfay392:
lennysh can u help me figure out why my contacts program isnt working...? are you on irc?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] vetvito:
^Check your mui files for complete information.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] boggsie:
Alrightey - then ... that is entirely too much like work. I _really_ appreciate the information, but I am not at all certain that I have the stamina or patience to actually do this, let alone put together a detailed guide.

Say what you will, but I'm going back to clicking check-boxes and pushing the green button!

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] gguruusa:
It's really not all that hard, but it can be tedious and there really isn't much point in 100 people doing the exact same port. Unless you really want the experience, just use one some competent person has already made. We keep a library of them at PPCKitchen.org just because they're so boring to make we don't want to have to do it a second time.

It would be nice, however, if people would report not only what xip they ported, but what the base xip they used is as well.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] lennysh:
I found a good detailed guide to XIP porting on a Chinese site (bbs.xbeta.cn) by the user ganfan a while back.. I decided to go and translate it for us to English. It has pictures and all. So if anybody would like to see it so far, the link is:

http://wiki.htcgeeks.com/index.php5?title=HowToPortXIP

I'm still working on the wording of it, so it'll be constantly updated for a lil while. Feel free to help out on it if you wish.

You have problem rooting because your bootloader is locked. First, go to link I gave you in your other post to read about T547U which has the same hardware as T545 on how to unlock your bootloader. You can neither root nor install any custom rom until your bootloader is unlocked.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] lcdial:
Hi-

Just installed LineageOS 17.1 on my Moto G7. When I enable Hotspot, my phone loses mobile data altogether, and I can't get it back until I reboot. I can still ping google DNS servers (8.8.8.8). When I try to use Private DNS to dns.google, I get "couldn't connect". So, it seems like the hotspot is interfering with the phone's ability to resolve hostnames somehow.

Mobile data works fine all other times, and I spent a couple hours on the phone with my carrier, and there's nothing wrong on their end (phone also reports it's still connected to the LTE network).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] lcdial:
Update:

Just did the August 16 update -- no change. Here's some more information:

When hotspot has killed internet access on mobile data:

I cannot ping any hostname (I cannot ping websitename);

I can get DNS resolution (I can resolve websitename to 172.217.9.196);

I can ping 172.217.9.196;

BUT, I can't get my browser to load a webpage with 172.217.9.196 (on my phone; it works on my computer).

I also appear to be connected to the local cell towers -- just can't get access to their internet.

None of this goes away when hotspot is turned back off, although if I turn wifi on, I can get access to internet again.

Weird stuff -- especially the DNS resolution that works but doesn't allow me to load a page.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] lcdial:
Actually, it looks like I am NOT getting DNS resolution for sites other than google. Instead, I get something about a Canonical name ....
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Mateo1041:
Hi all. I first was on LineageOS and went through a couple Android versions with them and recently switched to Pixel Experience to try it out. I've loved LineageOS, but the default camera sucked and didn't have wide angle. Pixel Experience has a great camera, but performance is absolutely awful. So I'm in the hunt again for a ROM that is both performant (fast, no lag or hangs) and makes full use of my Moto X4s camera. I did come across crDroid and it seemed promising, but there doesn't appear to be much support for Moto X4 phones outside of a couple random websites and the official crDroid site doesn't have Moto X4 listed. One thing I have really liked about ROMs like LineageOS are the options, including brightness slider. That one's hugely useful to me.

Any ideas?

thank you!
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] skrewdupone:
Tmobile bought sprint.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] redskykiter:
I thought that too. Maybe google support doesn't know the Sprint Fi dialer code doesn't work yet.

I was out of town in a tmobile dead zone and a friend of mine on Sprint had great coverage and data.

All my calls went to voicemail and I couldn't call out, yet my data was fast.

This all happened on a replacement refurbished phone they sent me because my proximity sensor died in my last 4xl

The escalated my ticket. So we'll see

Fi support had me do a bunch of cache/data clearing and uninstalling fi app and reinstalling then reactivating.

I just emailed them back saying the Sprint dialer code still didn't work...

I did see sprint pop up for a couple seconds this morning in the signalcheck pro app

I guess I'll see what they say before trying wiping and going back to 10 to see if it works.

I'm beginning to wonder if the refurbished phone they sent to replace my old phone isn't a fi phone
