xbmod's manila 1.85 cfc in new kitchen

Hi, I'm trying to cook xbmod's 1.85 manila (cfc compressed version) in the new kitchen made by hilaireg.

conversion from cab to package was succesful. I can cook it in in the older kitchens of this thread (up to the last 21042 kitchen of late march), but when coocking it in in the new kitchen (the april one), it keeps restarting touchflo3D, without it actually showing up.

When installing as a cab it works fine, I just want it to be coocked in....

I've tried with a minimal package selection of the kitchen, but it just won't work. anyone have any ideas how to get it working?

Is there anyway i could get the touch pro 2 updated icons into a cab file, i want to use them on my Da_G's 6.5 rom.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
Is this the one?

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
The resources file(s) may not be compatible with 6.5. That said, the CAB'bing tool is in the Packaging folder; see here on how to use:

Cool Beans thanks.

But still weird, they are almost (yours has less strings) identical and the footprints menu item is at the same resource String Table.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] r.camies:
@hilaireg:

Yes Sir, that's the one! Converted to package, it works in all kitchens except the last one, even when all enhancements and other htc stuff is disabled.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
@r.camies:

Ok, I'll pull it down and have a look ... not sure why it would be a problem, but we'll get to the bottom of it.

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Captain_Throwback:
I'm actually just using the Album (w/Social Networking) from Da_G's 6.5 Kitchen. It should be the same as the one you currently have in your kitchen, I would think. I only replaced the .mui, and it works fine. If you still need me to upload the file, I can.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
@Captain_Throwback:

Would you mind comparing both Album packages in the kitchen when you have a moment? I'm using the version without Social Networking.

Much appreciated,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] r.camies:
@hilaireg:

thanks! Much appreciated! ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
Would appreciate it when you have a moment.

Cheers,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Captain_Throwback:
Sorry, was @ work all day (away from my kitchen computer), and when I got home, my wife was using it. I've just now been able to finally get on here.

And . . . according to version checker, the Album version I have on my phone (that supports the Social Networking Engine) is 2_5_18201831_1.

The one in the kitchen (this is Da_G's 6.5 kitchen, keep in mind) that does not include Social Networking appears to be 2_2_19122926_0 - but what's interesting is I just checked the .mui in that version, and it appears to have the Footprints entries. So you may only need to replace the mui in the one that includes Social Networking.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
Just checked the kitchen ... the version /w social networking is: 2_5_18201831_1

The non-social networking version I have is: 2_2_18203428_m0

I'm going to pull down his latest 6.5 kitchen and have a look. Incidentally, is there some kind of menu option that pops up or how does one confirm it's working?

... sorry, first time /w this app and haven't caught up on all the threads.

Cheers,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Error about /ROM folder comes because kitchen looks for os.nb, which is extracted by raphaelkitchen. However, my kitchen is modded to use os.nb.payload, which saves some steps in compilation.

Basically, if you want to use another OEM/ROM/SYS, you have to get rid of my OEM/ROM/SYS and most of my /Packages, split the os.nb into os.nb.payload (this is manual) and then begin modding from there.

As it stands right now any OEM/ROM/SYS would need to be specifically prepared for use in this kitchen due to the way things have been split up. There will be conflicts if you use any other OEM/ROM/SYS.

You *MIGHT* be able to get a couple packages working if you keep my /ROM and only bring in the OEM and SYS from other ROM, but you will get errors of conflicting packages from /Packages folder..
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gravesy56:
Hmmm I'll keep playing around with it and figure out the secret sauce of it all... what's strange is NATF/Arrup's work fine... the stock doesn't and neither does yours which I would think be the most compatible... I'll try your suggestions you mentioned above.

Thanks for the coaching as always:)

EDIT: Just to be clear the stock-baked ROM doesn't boot I get NO errors even after I split it and use the nb.os.payload...one thing I didn't try is splitting your backed v2.05 and using that from the RaphKitchen because I really dig your base ROM and the open memory space I just want to add my apps using your kitchen as oppose to doing everything from my SD card and manually installing the cabs.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Wait, so if you extract the v4 kitchen to an empty folder, and build a rom, and flash it, it doesn't boot?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gravesy56:
Yahtzi or at least that's what happened with the ATT Stock Rom that I attempted to use. It built fine and flashed fine but wouldn't run I was stock at my boot screen.

While we're on the topic how do you incorporate boot screens and animations into a baking session? No worries I'll google it in this mofo but if you can give me some insight as to why the Stock ATT ROM didn't work that would be awesome I extracted from the exe.... check page 7 or maybe 6 for a link to what I downloaded from xda's database of original roms.

Thanks man!
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Err, the v4 kitchen comes with it's own set of OEM/ROM/SYS, if you want to use another set you'd want to use the kitchen from the op.. it doesnt come with any OEM/ROM/SYS.. after extracting, and pulling os.nb.payload in /ROM, if it's not booting you need to run g'reloc in the base kitchen folder (copy it from tools)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] g2tl:
I extracted oem/rom/sys from qsqa's proven 1.12 using raph kitchen .62, deleted oem/rom/sys from your kitchen, copied everything to your kitchen directory, including os.nb.payload extracted with -kaiser setting.

And... I'm stuck :p

Doing "load ROM" doesn't work because it only loads your stuff, and even they are non-functional for some reason. What extra steps do I need to go through?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
What's stuck? When you "load ROM" it should show you any packages that have had an option.xml created (would only be my \packages folder in that situation)

default packages in /OEM and /SYS do not have option.xml created (it is something that must be done by hand) and so will not have any checkboxes, they will just be built into rom when you hit "go"

if you want them to have checkboxes, gotta create seperate them into nice clean sections, and put option.xml in each folder :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
I'll upload it now :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
And here is said update!

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] g2tl:
It seems like the errors I got resulted from checking duplicates that are already present in qsqa's ROM.

I think I got it, thanks.

[EDIT]

How do I configure the first-boot auto config? I took some packages out, so I need to edit the list.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] gravesy56:
Memory serves me I tried to just do this and it didn't worked but to you're point I'll try it again...has everyone of your kitchens configured so that all I do is pick what I want and build it? Man I've been mixing crap this whole time, my bad man lol and that's how you know I'm a newbie. At least I'm not too far off from doing my own thing but we'll see.

Thanks man.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
g2tl: look in config.txt, operator.txt, i think one or two other .txt, its set up like sdconfig.txt.. search for *.txt in /OEM you'll find 'em :)

gravesy56: yes, it's set up ready to go right out of the gate, just run raphaelkitchen.cmd, follow instructions on the first post, and out pops your ROM! no need to mix and match anything just check some boxes and away you go :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] player911:
No workie

I downloaded V5 and followed the directions on the first page. Pretty simple. Check all the options I want and hit go, it goes through the motions and says "Done" but never spits out an ruu_shipped.nbh

I just dumped the rar file into a folder on my Desktop... the base folder doesn't have to be anywhere specific does it?

This is my first time messing with your Kitchen (or a Kitchen period). I looked at some of the logs generated during the cooking process and nothing really rings a bell.

I'm using Windows 7 and I have UAC turned off. I know you were also testing Win7... I don't know if you were using Win7 while using your kitchen though.

NEVER MIND

I got it to finish. The Wiki has some important information that isn't in the instructions in the first post of this thread.

PS. Have you tried Flashing your phone in Win7? Mine can't seem to get the drivers straight.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Actually, I did cover that in the first post, I just wasn't very clear about it (I wrote that early in the AM after coming home from the bar, lol)

I've been beta testing Win7 since the beta started and it works great for cooking/flashing/etc.. gives me problems at times with permissions related to deleting files, but i've already reported the bugs to ms and have a trouble ticket open.. among my 30+ open :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] scotchua:
I'm using Windows 7 as well and loving it, just wanted to add that
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] player911:
Hmmm wierd. I use Windows 7... and Mobile Device Center craps out when launching; with the device ON and running the flasher program, it says Device Driver failed; when I flash with the phone in bootloader mode, it never switches to USB mode (its just blank).

If I UNPLUG the phone while in bootloader mode it converts to "Serial". Plugging back in reverts to blank.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] The Jack of Clubs:
under device information, rom version says "YourROM-1.0 WWE". is there a way to change that?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] skyfox99:
I want to edit all the status icons on the today screen. Where do I go in all these folders to do that? and really, how would I go about doing that? have seen in other roms that this is customizable and I like the idea of changing things on the rom to personalize. and since i know nothing, i figure icons may be a nice start in to the cooking
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Captain_Throwback:
Easy. I attached screenshots below. With the correct mui, there are actual menu options for Footprints if its installed. With the incorrect mui, those options are blank.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
Ok, the Save To Footprints menu shows up in Album using Da_G 6.5 package with no MUI file change.

Which Footprints packages did you install; reason I ask is that I don't see a Show On Map menu option. Did you install the CoPilot, Navitel, PaPaGo, or TomTom packages? I didn't since I don't use those products - only have GoogleMaps.

* EDIT * think I figured it out, need to install one of those navi app components even though I don't use them.

Cheers
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Captain_Throwback:
Actually, that option only shows up if you've taken a picture in GPS Photo mode, or are viewing a geotagged photo. It doesn't matter whether you have nav software installed (I'm using the TomTom version, but I don't have TomTom installed).
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Noonski:
Also working for me with your MUI, but only in Album 2.5 version.

Newer Album still doesn't show Social networking and FootPrints.

To bad HTC haven't made a n official VGA version of FootPrints.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
@Noonski, Captain_Throwback, Da_G:

So I managed to get Footprints working: Camera, Album, and GoogleMaps

I did copy the TomTom .DLL to the device but didn't create the .REG entries - which would indicate to me that the .DLL should not be required.

I figured out why I couldn't see the "Go to Map" (GoogleMaps) button in Footprints ... although GoogleMaps seems to work without problems from the .\Windows folder (i.e. current package in the kitchen), looks like the Footprint application needs to find

GoogleMaps.EXE

in .\Program Files.

What tool would you gents normally use to have a "look/watch" the Footprint .EXE/.DLL file(s) if I wanted to confirm this. I would normally use Dependency Walker (DEPENDS) on the PC.

In the interim, I guess I'll repackage Google Maps to copy itself to the .\Program Files\GoogleMaps :rolleyes:

Cheers,

* EDIT *

Uploaded to OEM repository.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Noonski:
Well the package i'm using installs GoogleMaps to Program Files but not through Initflashfiles.

But it's a lot cleaner then using initflashfiles or Cab file but requires the Rom to have Mortscript so the install script can be added to the config.txt

If your interested i'll prepare it so you can use it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
@Noonski:

Yes please; I haven't used MortScript yet so that would be a great learning experience.

REMINDER: N00B Chefs

Reminder for new chefs; always perform a Hard Reset after every flash.

Most chefs perform the Hard Reset when the Stylus Calibration appears - I personally wait until TF3D.

... forgot to HR on my last flash and spent 30 mins trying to figure out why content was missing from Application Data, Content, and Music.

A quick search on XDA will provide you with more info why ... i'll let you do the search instead of adding the link. ;)

* EDIT *

Works like a charm ! HUGE time saver doing it that way ... don't know why it didn't occur to me sooner.

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rmanaka:
Woot!

Thank you so much!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Noonski:
I have yet to encounter problems related to "NOT" hard resetting after every Flash.

It would make my life miserable having to H-reset my device after every flash.

But i have encountered other weird stuff due to the Rom being in a Bootloop for three times before actually starting in OS.

Another way to get a pretty Clean start is by "Reset >> Press Volume Down + Circle/Enter Key, Keep Pressed >> Volume Up to Format >> At The end another Volume Up, Followed by an immediate volume Down to get back into Bootloader after the reset >> Flash Rom in BootLoader.

Or maybe it's because i have been flashing roms in Bootloader modefor the almost 4 years that i have yet to see the Hard Reset problems.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] crazyC:
I had never previously bothered with a HR after a flash. But the last few times I have had issues with messaging locking up after a couple of days and needing a soft reset to clear.

I made no major changes the next time I flashed but ended up HRing for a different reason, and low and behold the messaging issue has not reappeared.

So I guess maybe there is good cause to HR. I will be in future.

Create .lnk in the Start Menu for one Package

I have include the HTC Calculator in my kitchen.

In the package there is a .lnk file for the .exe file but after flashing it isn't possible to find the shortcut (.lnk) to the Start Menu\Programs.

Do i need to change something else in .rgu file?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
I'm assuming you're using the HTC Calculator package already in the kitchen.

Have a look at the 'buildlog-missed.txt' to see if the shortcut was omitted as a result of one already present in another package/oem/sys.

Also verify the package in question to see if there is an INITFLASHFILES.TXT (sorry not in front of kitchen right now) - should be an instruction to copy the .LNK in there to .\windows\start menu\programs.

REF: First Boot Wizard & Locale/Region

Here's some good links for folks who would like to change the default locale/region post-flash.

General - Skip First Boot Wizard ... KITCHEN REQUIRED

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=52033

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Welcome

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=269507

I've also attached a sample .TXT file that contains registry entries for GMT -5, Eastern US, English (Canada). It is possible to add the entries to a .PROVXML file; conceivably, it is possible to create a .PROVXML file with the appropriate configuration and simply disable the Date And Time wizard panel in BOOT.RGU - I have added a sample .PROVXML that I found in my travels.

I added these registry entries to my BOOT.RGU as I wanted the settings to be "pre-set" before the First Boot Wizard (Welcome) appeared. Since I appended these entries to the BOOT.RGU, I could have skipped searching the BOOT.RGU for duplicate entries - last ones take precedence. :)

As a best practice, I did actually search the file for duplicates and removed them. ;)

Additionally, I searched the remainder of the kitchen and found that entries existed in a few other locations - I adjusted the values accordingly. Here are the files I had to adjust:

.PROVXML: mxipupdate_oemoperators_104.provxml (<!-- 316.01_Regional Settings -->)

.RGU: .\SYS\Base_Lang_0409

As I'm certain it is obvious, but just in case, changing the Clock & Alarms and Regional Settings to your desired location and performing a Soft Reset will configure the registry for you. Once set, the registry can be exported for use in the BOOT.RGU or as the foundation for a .PROVXML.

Happy Cooking!

Hi,

The package doesn't contain any initflashfiles.txt and the .lnk file existing only in the \windows folder.

I assume that the Bepe's kitchen tool used to extract the Packages from the ROM and as i know the Bepe's tool never create initflashfiles.txt.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
Hmmmm ... that's odd, I've been cooking /w the 21042 kitchen for a bit now and I always see the HTC Calc shortcut in Programs. Can you post up the 'buildOsX-missed.log' file ... maybe that will lend a clue as to what is going on.

I created a .CAB using sztupy's PKG2CAB tool; unfortunately it's not compressed. Here's the uncompressed version for the time being:

Opera 9.5 b16277

* EDIT *

See next post for compressed .CAB version ... thanks, Captain Throwback :)

Cheers,
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Captain_Throwback:
In honor of this, I've compressed both of your Opera cabs, and posted them to my 4shared. The only change I made was to change the Company & App Names so that these versions will replace previous versions. Links below:

Opera 9.5 Build 16070

Opera 9.5 Build 16277

How well does the 16277 work? Do you see any advantages over previous versions? I did notice that the 16277 build is twice as large as the 16070. I'm sure that's because the Opera9.exe appears twice in the file, in two different versions (one w/"A" at the end). Did you experiment at all w/removing one of the versions, and just having any reg entries point to the other one? I'll continue experimenting with it to see if I can reduce the size a bit. Thanks for all your hard work!! :)

EDIT: I removed the two extra files, reducing the cab size by about half, and updated the above 16277 link. I just tested it out, and it appears to be working okay.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] hilaireg:
@Captain_Throwback:

My pleasure. I suspect we can probably "do away" with the (A) versions since everything in the registry is pointing to the non(A) .EXE's. The last ROM I cooked still has both set of .EXE's in it ... let me know the resuls if you get a chance to cook a ROM without the (A) versions.

Appreciate you dealing with the .CAB'ing stuff, I've got so much on my plate that it fell to the end of the to-do list.

All-in-all, it seems to be as zippy as b16070 ... i'll be road testing this puppy for the rest of the weekend.

You da man! I'll pull them out of the package on my next burn.

Okay, maybe I'm just chicken or lazy, but I don't want to build my own ROM. I'd rather install one that's proven to work and comes with no frills (I do need MSVC). I started installing Da_G's clean ROMs way back before his kitchen was available. When his kitchen went online, he quit posting new versions of his clean ROM. I've been using the latest build I could find (5.08.502.1) since it was released (Mar 4), but it has a few bugs. Does anyone know if there's a newer clean ROM available? I've searched and searched, but I can't find one. Please include the link if you know it.

hi there, first of amazing work,

ive flashed many phones but never tired to cook a rom. So I did some reading, and went for this one as im a touch pro owener,

ran the instructions from the first post worked perfectly, the output was really fast and looked great.

however, now im trying to add some cabs, add a splash screen, change wall paper etc

first thing i did was hit the wiki i remember in the first post of this forum someone mentioning this link

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=OEM%20Package%20Tutorial

so i read it thinking that this was probably what i needed to do to prepare my cabs before moving on to other things

only problem tho step 5 says

i really dont understand what this means or what to do after this,

can any one help me?

many thanks
