If you like, send me a PM with all of the strings displayed in the kitchen and I will be more than happy to look them over ... and provide you with changes for the ones that need it.

Cheers,
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
I don't have a list of string, nothing like a list of string.... all is written into proprietes of buttons, labels, messageboxes, a lot difficult have all....

you, using visualkitchen, when find a wrong string, write it somewhere, and when you have reached some of them send me! ;)

Hi, Im an USER of v10.4

I have a HTC Hermes and i get all the build already ported to my Hermes: SYS for 21806... my own OEM... some EXT... and the same XIP 21806 build, so... everything is like in the old style process... but the difference here is...

First: .VM folder must be.... WHERE?

Second: .ROM folder must be.... WHERE?

Third: OEMXIPKernel is in the right place but that XIP was ported to hermes do I need to check the box "real aku 6.5"? if not... do you think i need an OEM from a shipped? and uncheck the real 6.5 aku?

The last one... I had the MSxipkernel in the right place it is from the same ported build... and My Rom cant boot... an I missing soemthing?

What it could be? :rolleyes:

sorry if i sound like a noob but.... I'am

See ya!

Edited: sorry i forgot something what do i need to change on .bat file for Hermes device?

I already set some things but not sure what do i need or what is the correct config.
[Windows Mobile] utak3r:
Just tested a full process with 1.5 (new style as of now). Everything works ok - besides implantxip can't do PP on my whole new nk.exe (wm6.5), I had to use osnbtool for that. The rest is working perfect.

both go to SYS folder.

If you don't have a whole new kernel from Da_G, you have to uncheck this option.

Well, the could be many reasons... Have a deeper look at OEMXIPKernel, if everything is ok.

ervius' kitchen should change it for itself, if you set HERMES device in it... do you have a proper os.nb.payload and romhdr.bin files from Hermes?
[Windows Mobile] + Que PPC:
Mmm my bad... first error.

Yup! Da_G post on hermes a native 6.5 XIP, it has the OUT folder and the xip.bin... so i think i just need to add my Romhdr.bin and my os.nb.payload from old Hermes build, oups of course mix the files and modules to get both folders OEMXIPKernel and MSXIPkernel...

Yes there is something weird on that native 6.5 from da_g

inside a normal 6.5 OEMXIPkernel is a module called Fsdspy.dll

and inside the Da_G's that module doesnt exist but there is a new one called relfsd.dll... so i will try all the alternatives.

The msxipkernel is hughe than the normal i had for hermes 6.5 21806

May I use those os.nb.payload and romhdr.bin from the ported build 21806?

im trying all the alternatives and new ideas you gave me... I see you have a hermes too.

Thanks a lot dude!
[Windows Mobile] utak3r:
Yes, you can use it.

True... I'm uploading right now 21815 ROM and I'm almost finished on a whole kitchen, so I'll upload really soon, too :)
[Windows Mobile] MrDSL:
Your gonna release a kitchen for hermes that has the Da_G mod already done? I hope so cause I have been pullin my hair out trying to get all this to work :(
[Windows Mobile] utak3r:
yeah, of course :)
[Windows Mobile] yonn1981:
I'm experiencing this:

- Not sure but looks like that the .provxml files are not loaded on boot

This because task manager shortcut not created and default theme not loaded on 1st boot "And so never" and other related stuff...

Any idea what might be the cause? :confused:
[Windows Mobile] MrDSL:
Cool just let me know when..thanks :)
[Windows Mobile] + Que PPC:
**** it works! with 21806....

My first release works very well! :D

Next release for +QueROM_B2 21815... then 21820...

BTW, does the dpi 96 kitchen has corrupted in Da_G's? well... he toldsme that all the modules are corrupted in that build dont use the modules just the files... :rolleyes:

Lets try with other build on auto xip port with this awsome Kitchen... it feels so good!!

Thanks Utaker!!!! you had point me in the right dir...! ;)
[Windows Mobile] twopumpchump:
if you want 96dpi sys files + mxipkernel that are for sure good just go to my kitchen folder

i keep it updated can use all you want(the file structure is not same as ervius but all files are there). also i believe the only corrupt files in da_g's kitchen(i may be wrong) are in the oem directory and you cant use that with hermes anyways.
[Windows Mobile] Diewi:
Hi,

I just tried the new kitchen and it looks very good so far.

But my rom won't boot if I select "old style rom". I really want this feature as

I can update my rom by using .cab.pkg files. The build process runs fine, but

I won't get beyond the Sony Ericcson logo (Xperia).

Only change I did in the kitchen was to replace wmreloc.exe with one found

at ppcgeeks, that promises using the 6.5 nk.exe, as I now got a native 6.5 OEMXipKernel.

The ROM boots fine if I use platformrebuilder.

Well, I had to use the .ROM folder from an old 19608 build.

The xip.bin planted in Rom/Shared/21820/ if from Da_G's kitchen.

Any insight what might be wrong? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile] ND4SPD:
I second that, except for me, it's for the Diamond. It's been painful trying to create an image update ready rom in a flat release dir. I've got my own iamge-update packages, but I don't have the correct certs on the dsms for them to work.
[Windows Mobile] twopumpchump:
yep i have no problems building a rom with ervius kitchen that boots and is ready for updater pkgs using old style method, i just have problems making the correct cab.pkgs. when i run them, windows recognizes them and runs cab.pkg but when soft reset the phone wont boot :( i guess this is because of the cab.pkg im using? or maybe it is the rom but doesnt seem like it.
[Windows Mobile] Diewi:
How did you manage to get your rom bootable? Are you using a native 6.5

OEMXipKernel?
[Windows Mobile] ND4SPD:
I can send you some test packages that I know will work - the thing is that you probably don't have the certs that I've signed mine with. If you tell me what certs you have your dsms signed with, I can send you some working .cab.pkg's - my program regenerates the dsms to the way they were when the OEM built the dsms.
[Windows Mobile] twopumpchump:
no i use nk.exe from wm 6.1 kaiser, hacked for 101 ram by ervius :) with wm 6.5 build 21812 with only base pkgs in rom. you have to be sure and replace g'reloc with wmreloc in "my tools" folder(at least with v1.3 havent tried newer) and also change code accordingly in doit.bat. after making these changes i got the results i told about in prev post.

@ND4SPD....i will send you one of my dsm's later, am going out to eat right now, but i just use dsm generated by ervius kitchen 1.3 if that helps. also i need cab.pkg that is not device specific, i have a kaiser so i want to use something that should work for it to eliminate that from possible reason why my phone wont reboot after install. at first try i used some of da_g's cab.pkgs for raphael and thought i had bricked my phone lol dont want that to happen again.
[Windows Mobile] lwj0770:
good,i like this,hope i can use it finely!
[Windows Mobile] Diewi:
Well, I think I found the reason. The wmreloc.exe I have is not the

2.0 version Da_G mentioned. I didn't find it using google, only a not very

trustable chinese page. So, I guess, it won't work with a 6.5 native kernel.

But, just one more thing: is it really neccessary to modify doit.bat? From

what I've seen wmreloc/greloc is launched from old_kitchen_build_rom.bat.
[Windows Mobile] ai6908:
What issue are you talking about? I have been using this kitchen, and it works just fine, except 21820 when I get an error in boot using runCC!
[Windows Mobile] twopumpchump:
im not talking about ervius kitchen errors, im referring to the windows image update system we have been working on....the .cab.pkg are giving me error not the kitchen.
[Windows Mobile] ND4SPD:
Good deal :D What .cab.pkg do you want? I can really make any oem package into a .cab.pkg
[Windows Mobile] Slv:
I had this because my XIP was done by XIPPort, and platformrebuilder creates different registry, and can not create working XIP for my Toshiba G900.

So i took "files" part from platformrebuilder's XIP and "modules" from XIPPort's.

After that all working fine.
[Windows Mobile] yonn1981:
Hmmm, Can you explain this more...:o

Do you mean that I must port xip manually? can you share your kitchen :D
[Windows Mobile] ivanmmj:
I'm still having problem creating a Spanish ROM. (I'm trying to make a multilanguage kitchen.)

I am just reconstructing the same exact dumped ROM...

It's off the Herald.

What's crashing is actually platform builder. It's giving me the following:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runetime Library

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\kitchens\SuperJustKitchen\TOOLS\platformrebuilder.exe

This application has requested the runetime to terminate it in an unusual way.

Please contact the application's support team for more information.
[Windows Mobile] mbarvian:
most likely it has to do with your EXT folder. Try removing some packages to narrow down what might be causing it. ;)
[Windows Mobile] ivanmmj:
There aren't any ext packages. It's a stock Herald 6.0 RUU.

Maybe it's because I also extracted a WWE ROM and maybe it has a file somewhere clashing with it...
[Windows Mobile] ivanmmj:
Yep... found the problem. Thanks.

For the curious: Apparently, having an HTM file in both the COMMON folder and in the language specific folder caused the error.
[Windows Mobile] {SBR}_L3GION:
IM using a CDMA sprint touch pro and I am using the 1.4 visual kitchen and I am having trouble upgrading the sys I have upgraded the xip i just cant upate the sys I was trying to use the sys files from DA_G's kitchen. could somebody help me upgrade my sys.
[Windows Mobile] utak3r:
Man, you should be more descriptive... I cannot see what's wrong from here ;)

What have you done? What's happening?
[Windows Mobile] Slv:
If Platformrebuilder can not create working XIP for your device (like for my Toshiba G900), you have to port it manually.

I'm using Da_G's kitchen for Raphael (based on this Ervius kitchen) with .bat modified for my device.
[Windows Mobile] nushuth:
i think there is a mistake in my kitchen EXT package..

i'm trying to cook an italian ROM using my italian kitchen (posted in another thread), so i'm starting using only two packages (RSSHub and QuickGPS) extracted from a rhodium italian ROM (RSSHub and QuickGPS *may* not have resolution problem) using new ervious kitchen (to dump original rom)

after cooking i have RSSHub.exe and QuickGPS.exe and all other files in /windows directory but no icon in start menu.

i noticed there is no app.dat files iin package folder.. i'm requred to write one by myself? or there is something wrong in my procedure?

second problem.. RSSHub works correctly (launched from windows folder) but QuickGPS refuse to start, because of a certificate error.

Anyone could explain me where i'm wrong?
[Windows Mobile] mac_es:
Could someone explain how to determine if there is enough space for modules whith a 6.1 nk.exe?

I would like to check it before flashing it and discover that I need to recmod more modules...

I can't understand the memory map that presents PRB.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile] mac_es:
To create the shortcut there are several ways, look into your packages and search for:

initflashfiles.txt -> rename to app.dat

xxxxx.provxml -> look for proper paths in it

app.reg -> maybe it relays in autoshortcut, if so you need the package too

And for the certificate, you should relax the security. Search for Security_off OEM package.
[Windows Mobile] nushuth:
That's the strange thing...

I have no app.dat in the dumped EXT folder! i'm using new visual erviuskitchen to dump a shipped NBH file, so there isn't an initflashfiles.txt too...

i'm so stupid! i forgot this package... thank you!!
[Windows Mobile] mac_es:
so it should have a provision.xml or in registry key for autoshortcut

or create your own app.dat :p
[Windows Mobile] nushuth:
thanks for your help!!

there is no provision.xml file too...

coud you provide me an example of autoshortcut registry key? so i can ceck it...
[Windows Mobile] mac_es:
Check for a key

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AutoShortcut]
[Windows Mobile] nushuth:
mmmmm...

probably i find the problem and the solution...

seems that autoshortcut does not start at system boot because linked in the wrong folder...
[Windows Mobile] blaster00:
Roms built by v1.5 seems very weird on my diamond. Colour black turns to gray or blue; faild to install cab packages; automatic hardreset after reboot device...

[Windows Mobile] ervius:
rom built by U are weird, not built by visualkitchen.

I'm using 1.5 from time and ever works very well.... (now using 1.6!)

try to install a stock rom on your device and then reinstall the roms built with version 1.5 and maybe that all will be ok.

btw:

I'm updating to version 1.6 that supports new 2.09 nk.exe for diamond (date and version change on.....)

6.1 ROM Version/Date

Hi Ervius,

I know WinMO 6.1 is soon to become

old news

, just wondering if the new version also changes ROM Version & Date for XIP's that are ported to WinMO 6.1?

The latest WinMO 6.1 XIP's (ex: Rhodium 21051) have new resource strings added to NK.EXE.

Cheers,
[Windows Mobile] blaster00:
Thanks.

The difference between the roms which work or not is only the version of visualkitchen. However, I had a working rom.

And for the new kitchen, can I just change the .reg file and leave the .rgu file untouched? Or should I change rgu same as reg too? That would be boring.
[Windows Mobile] wesley96:
I've been attempting to build custom ROM using v1.5 for my Xperia and I might have one of the same problem as blaster00 - the skipped cabs still attempt to install, causing stalling of customization routine after hard reset.

I'm downloading v1.6 right now to see if it changes anything.
[Windows Mobile] wesley96:
Okay, I built the ROM using v1.6 but the exact problem still persists. At the customization stage after hard reset, the process is stalled when it attempts to install Bejeweled cab, which was set to 'false' for inclusion. I wonder what's wrong?
[Windows Mobile] onlinespending:
I'm curious to know what the advantages of using an EXT package versus just copying over an old style OEM package.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:

[Windows Mobile] spocky12:
Hi ervius,

Could you please set a variable in kitchen_build_rom.bat when lzx compression is set please (on ks20, things can't be done automatically by the kitchen, I do some stuff in the batch file, so it would be easier for me to know wether it has been checked or not).

(you know, there's already things like set SYSBUILD=21820, that would be great to have set COMPR=LZX OR XPR).

Thanks for you work !
[Windows Mobile] pcarvalho:
im trying out this kitchen and it cooks great on "new style" but i have trouble cookin an "old style" rom...it doesn't boot (doesn't even show the rom radio and protocol letters, only splash screen)...

what am i missing? i know its a problem in the xip but dont know how to proceed :confused:

my thanks to anyone that explains it to me...

cheers
[Windows Mobile] izzyzc:
You must edit the corresponding config*.txt file
[Windows Mobile] utak3r:
I'd say more - in the OEM style I had a full control over the order of inclusion, and it's really important (overwriting reg entries and files) - now I have no idea, what's the order...

Have to ask bepe, if there's any way of controlling this.
[Windows Mobile] elparra72:
Words true / false in different color or bold

Hi Ervius,

It's only an idea I think if in the main screen you put words 'true' in bold letters or using a different color will be easier to visually detect active and inactive packets. Thanks a lot for your fantastic work.

[Windows Mobile] rling:
EXT structure

Tried many times (using VK up to 1.5), but any packages added in the EXT/Shared folder is never cooked into ROM.

I assumed this EXT/Shared folder would be for packages that is universal for all phones, regardless of models.

Adding those packages to EXT/Topaz/Common works.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
[Windows Mobile] izzyzc:
I think this has been answered already somewhere in this thread...

But anyway, you must follow the folder structure... Try putting your packages in another folder within EXT/Shared (e.g EXT/Shared/Common )

I did it this way and it worked for me.. :)

HTH!

BTW.. Thanks Ervius for this wonderful kitchen! Your visualkitchen got me hooked to cooking... :D

This is telling you that one of the components in the rom you try to build isn't correct, try to eliminate this.

First dump a shipped rom from your choice.

Then rebuild it whit the kitchen you are using, when this works.

Change the packages you want to, build again your rom.

When you do this you can eliminate the error you made.

Happy cooking :cool:

Trouble..

I managed to dump a stock 20764 rom for diamond using the fully automated procedure: "Dump nbh".

Ervius kitchen created all the folders and files automatically.

I disabled .netcf and enabled .netcf 3.5, I also included some packages like file explorer extension, adobe flashlite, winrar, diamond tweak and touchflo3d config, advanced configuration manager, chess, icontact, cleanram etc.

However, after the rom is created and flashed, repllog.exe cannot execute and poutlook is not signed, trusted etc and comm manager is also not a a valid ppc application.

My rom is crippled!

Could someone please help me??

Edit:

I haven't checked the Use old style ROM box. Is this relevant?

Also touchflo doesn't run. It's stuck at "Tap to run Touchflo"
