Great news!! Which radio shall be used with it?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] NRGZ28:
It's a KERNEL.. not a rilphone.dll. The radio is irrelevant :)

Hi,

how can I using this upload with ervius kitchen 10.2 and build 21812?

What to do?

Best regards
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mnet:
Was this compiled by HTC? Does this mean that HTC will release a 6.5 update for the HD?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Rumbi:
I think it was a press release around March 2009 where HTC said that customers are able to buy an upgrade to WM 6.5 for some of there phones. Blackstone was mentioned, if i remember correct.

€dit: Sorry, i only found a german press release: http://www.ppc-welt.info/blog/index...h-Pro2,-Touch-HD,-Touch-3G,-Touch-Cruise.html

This nk.exe was made on March 23, 2009
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
Yes, 1.56 Base ROM
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] onkolog:
What do you mean - base ROM 1.56?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] texture:
A question: when a port this XIP with XIPPortexEX i must use "Is an AKU-5 'XIP'" or not?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
That nk.exe is from the original 1.56 ROM, but modified by MS to support the WM 6.5 memory slots (footprints).

So when we use this, it will show as ROM version 1.56 during boot.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] oNNoZeLe:
no flame intended,

but i would like to know what this means for the non-tech readers? :)

or is it hard to explain?

I don't think this nk.exe was modified from WM 6.1 ship 1.56.... ROM...they just created new core for WM 6.5... nk.exe in ship 1.56 was made on December 2008...

I like an idea about that THEY HAVE WM 65 FOR HTC HD and this ROM with that nk.exe)))
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
Maybe they have one, who knows...someday they can bring it out, let's hope soon :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] iosub:
I don't think so, they just want to sell new phones

Iosu
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
For sure not from HTC, maybe other sources :rolleyes:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ANDYx1975:
Hey guys,

i recently downloaded this nk.exe and replaced the files with those in the folder "ROM\BlackStone\21812\OEMXipKernel"... I created a new .nbh and flashed it...my device does not boot with this native nk.exe. What I am doing wrong?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
Andy, in the kitchen at the options you have to check the box "Real AKU 6.5"...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sparkienl:
Great Share Da_G :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] onkolog:
miri

What do you think about this core?

I don't like it because I think it's slower than WM 61 core...and I didn't see any improvements...also more memory use....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobsbbq:
I found it to be about the same myself. It is still a 6.1 core only patched to accept the new 6.5 module slots. I did not notice any increase in memory usage either. I'm using the whole OEMXIPKernel module except gxdma.dll I'm using the custom one from NueROM.

EDIT: The benefits could be from converting some of the dll's in drivers and some other packages to modules which will shorten boot time. I could not do this before due to the module limitations.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] onkolog:
bobsbbq

Do you like it gxdma.dll?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
To me it looks faster :) but not a big deal.

Just an example is when using PhoneCanvas, now with this it loads immediately, instead with original nk.exe it took around 2 - 3 secs...

In whole, the interface looks more responsive.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobsbbq:
Yes This plus the Nue Spinlock Patcher I get really good results.

EDIT: Also I retract my previous statement was incorrect. It now has been brought to my attention this is not a patched 6.1 nk.exe but a native WM 6.5
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
I tested those but really didn't feel the difference. Do you see the results by doing benchmarks or in real life? :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobsbbq:
It increased my Torus test score in OpenGL from 6150 to 6900 so I would say yes it does help and feels a little better too. I have reported it in the OpenVG tester forum.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gtrab:
OMG... :eek:

Native 6.5 kernel ??

I feel envy :D

I have a heart beat: us, poor kovsky users, will be relegated by HTC...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da_G:
I'm working on that :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fards:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Laurentius26:
Thank you Da_G, awsom work!

Grtz, Leo :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] NRGZ28:
You will see better memory management, that's what it's really about. I know I see lower RAM usage on my ROM after I cooked it in. Oh and not having to recmod packages is nice... :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miri:
Yes, I have the native nk on my ROMs, what I was asking was about nueSpinLockPatcher etc by no2chem...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lokatho:
You mean you're working on a native kernel for Kovsky? You're my hero!:D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sparkienl:
Hi Da_G,

Sorry to bother you, I solved it myself.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] NRGZ28:
Hey dude.. it works fine here with the date set at 19. I just built a ROM with that kernel a coupe hours ago...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sparkienl:
Don't bother I solved the problem myself.:D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pidsw:
I have some questions:

How did the chefs manage to use a non-native nk? How was it made?

How difficult is it to take advantage of the "Big Hammer" memory slots? This can provide up to 64mb of extra VM space for processes which will help many apps with their responsiveness, partly by reducing TLB faults, partly by providing the OS with more freedom to effectively manage VM. Furthermore, on a survey of stock ROMs on WM 6.0, the average memory space available for processes was about 16mb. Just about all current apps are written to work with this limitation which has forced them to use inefficient techniques to manage their effective memory requirements. Manual paging and memory mapped files are examples.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ANDYx1975:
So I have a problem with my initial setup. Usually the blackstone will do a reboot after customization. But this does not work for me. I am using build 23017 and manila 2.5.18. Any Ides?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] EpiphanyNL:
What version of runcc are you using? Newer versions have a registry setting to do a device reset..
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ANDYx1975:
thanks for getting back...ah ok I see...you mean

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\RunCC]

"ResetDevice"=dword:00000001

So I am using latest Leo RunCC_1_1_8_1

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ADB100:
I have been using the 6.5 native kernel in my ROMs ever since I got my Blackstone, so thanks for this.

I was wondering whether there would be any benefit from converting some of the files in OEMDrivers to modules?

I imported a Topaz 6.5 ROM in OSKitchen and there are a lot more modules in the OEMDrivers than there are with the 1.56 Blackstone OEMDrivers dump? As both these devices are very similar in spec I was wondering whether I could just transplant some of the Topaz drivers to the Blackstone and/or/if converting some of the original Blackstone drivers to modules will improve the performance of the ROMs?

Any assistance from the senior chefs would be welcome?

Maybe a list of 6.5 OEMDrivers from the Topaz that I can transplant into my Blackstone kitchen.....?

Andy
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ypsmav:
Hi Andy,

It will be great if you can try and advise which drivers from the latest Topaz 2.53 are working on the blackstone. Sure it will be a big step forward in performance.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ADB100:
Its tricky dedicating time re-cooking to test different drivers. The Blackstone is my only phone and I use it for work so having it offline for most of the day isn't really something I can easily do.

However I got the impression from searching that a lot of this work had already been done (?) and was hoping someone would let us know what drivers from the Topaz 6.5 ROMs do and don't work. I guess I was aiming too high :(

At the moment I have re-moduled the drivers in OEMDrivers that were single files in the Blackstone 6.1 dump that were modules in the Topaz 6.5 dump and the rebuilt ROM is working fine. The next step is to replace some of the Blackstone modules for the Topaz ones and see what do and don't work. Its going to be time consuming though and I still have a some hope left that someone will come through for me....

If and when I do this I will happily post my findings on here...

Heres hoping...

Andy

Pretty sweet, check it out:

http://layar.eu/
[G1 Apps and Games] cronin4392:
yeah i saw it on gizmodo, looks pretty cool. Gizmodo said it was only available in the Netherland store, could someone upload the apk if it is?

but their site does say it will be released in the store soon, so who knows.
[G1 Apps and Games] Senorkabob:
Yeah, but the problem then lies in there not being any servers in the US...

Supposed to be some this year though.
[G1 Apps and Games] makethetick:
Worlds first? Wikitude has been around for ages.. looks pretty damn similar!
[G1 Apps and Games] kusotare:
I talked to a couple iphone users today and they were all hyped about this until I pointed out that they'd have to have a 3G-S to run it (if/when it comes out for the iphone), which means a nice 400-500 dollar upgrade for them just to use it. Android is a beautiful thing.
[G1 Apps and Games] Senorkabob:
"the main difference between them and Wikitude is having many content layers"

Interesting.
[G1 Apps and Games] calypso78:
looks pretty cool.
[G1 Apps and Games] crxtasi:
That's pretty cool. Imagine if the bars has a counter on the occupancy you can either choose if you want to go to a bar that has a ton of people or not! Or if it'll show you a restaurants menu or specials before walking in.
[G1 Apps and Games] tuto0503:
looks cool
[G1 Apps and Games] corp769:
very neat :) cant wait until it comes out
[G1 Apps and Games] micool_21:
seems intresting, cant wait for it so i can try it, since it gives real time info im aware it will use data but i wonder if it will require the gps to be turned on as well
[G1 Apps and Games] jusplainmike:
From what I can tell the gps is used to determine what info to retrieve
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
Is different layers marketing speak for different ways to filter?

I can't "see" any difference with it and wikitude and their claim at the first AR browser is dubious at best, wikitude beat them to the punch.
[G1 Apps and Games] chrisag92:
is this gonna be a free browser or will it cost us??
[G1 Apps and Games] jordanjay29:
For all that work? Somebody would be insane to publish it for free unless they're supporting themselves otherwise.
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
Well if you look at the various "layers" provided out of the gate, it seems like it might be sponsored by the various groups providing data. I mean how often are you going to want to use this program to find real estate in the Netherlands (or anywhere in the world for that matter)?

The kind of stuff i'd want an augmented reality program for (finding local eateries, sights to see, etc) seem conspicuously missing in the demo video.
[G1 Apps and Games] knaries2000:
delta_foxtrot2 is right. For all of you that want to try it, it's already in the market, called wikitude, may be this new browser have more POIs or have better way of allowing others to add those POIs but as far as the mechanism goes, it's already in the market, and it is free.
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
From their "About" page:
[G1 Apps and Games] IronCross1788:
I think it was released in the netherlands already. I think the webpage mentioned that.. maybe someone can get the apk on here ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] Speigei:
an apk would really be great, I'd like to evaluate it
[G1 Apps and Games] gvanlee:
I've been playing around with it today. It's pretty cool and it seems faster than wikitude. The interesting thing is that the layers seem to be provided by companies other than SPRX.

For example, it sports a layer with houses that are for sale, so you can find information on the real estate agent that's selling the house, prices, phone numbers, pictures, etc. The information comes from Funda, which is the number 1 housing site in the netherlands.

I'd be happy to post an apk (if someone can tell me where to find it on my phone), but I doubt whether it will work outside of the netherlands, since no data will be available.
[G1 Apps and Games] IronCross1788:
I used andexplorer and went to system/apps and it showed installed apk's. Hopefully that's iy
[G1 Apps and Games] borodin1:
I think you need to look in /data/app or /data/app-private. /system/app is for apps that came on the phone when you bought it. In other words, if you wipe your phone - whatever is in /system/app is still going to be there.

Good luck
[G1 Apps and Games] gvanlee:
Alright... found the .apk file in app-private. Now let's see if I can get it attached to this post...
[G1 Apps and Games] sputnik99:
I think this idea is just a copy of wikitude.
[G1 Apps and Games] Senorkabob:
Technically everything is a copy of everything... This apparently allows layers to be placed on the screen so you can see different types of information. Its like wikitude yes, but is kind of an extension of it.
[G1 Apps and Games] IronCross1788:
It seems to work nicely from that attached zip file. But no locations are being found. I'm in st paul minnesota and there is plenty of crap here. I used wikitude and it showed plenty of attractions. I guess we'll wait til it gets OFFICALLY released in the U.S
[G1 Apps and Games] Senorkabob:
Its because the app depends on third party companies to supply the layers. No US companies so far...
[G1 Apps and Games] Henchman:
BTW, have you guys noticed how the map rotates according to your direction?

Sorry about the attached image, wasn't quite sure how to do that. Either way, it is on the web page if you want it.
[G1 Apps and Games] Paging Dr B:
looked cooler in the demo. Since then i've used NRU, google places directory, aloqa, sherpa, and wikitude. After having my hands on all of those Layar isnt as cool as I thought itd be (so far). I'll hold to pass official judgement until we get a layer that recognizes objects using the camera instead of the way its setup now. still a cool app though

I LOVE my AT&T Tilt but the size & weight is killin me, I keep it in my pocket cuz the holsters drop it all the time, and it's getting to be annoying because of it's size... The blackberry is awesomely slim (as is the iPhone) so here's my question:

I want something the size of the Blackberry Curve 8900 that has 3G AND GPS built-in. Basically I use Google Maps and Opera all day every day. Please reply with suggestions, even unlocked phones if necessary.

PS I know the Blackberry Bold has 3G but it looks crappy and is larger than the Curve.

Hi - I've recently installed some programs on my Diamond, some of which were not compatible, so I deleted the files for these from my Program Files folder in Internal Storage.

However, the icons for these deleted programs are still in the programs menu - how do I get rid of these icons?

Any help would be much appreciated!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] xavierdemon:
Delete the shortcuts in the Windows\Start Menu\Programs folder.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Dom1n8tr1x:
With File Explorer go to the "Windows" Folder on the Main Storage (Not Internal Storage), then go to the "Start Menu" Folder and then the "Programs" Folder. The icons should be somewhere in there.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] SLLion:
A very overdue THANKS to you two - I somehow managed to lose the link to this thread and couldn't find my post again. n00b uselessness, I'm afraid.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] docgelo:
well if your dealing with just a shortcut, you could use a program called SK tools, under a category there is a function there on removing BAD Shortcuts...

or option two, you could do it manually, install a resco file explorer got to Windows/Start Menu/ Programs and choose the applicatiion shortcut you want to delete then tap it then delete...

Hope that helped you...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] TRMG76:
You can also remove it with ActiveSync,after your connected go to mobile device-windows mobile based device-windows-startmenu-programs.Here you can select the shortcut you want to delete.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] PhilipL:
Hi

I'm not particulary impressed with the TouchFlo interface. It seems very rough around the edges, for example when you reply to a text message you get an HTC message thread, but if you select to send a new text message the TouchFlo dumps you back to the standard SMS message screen of Windows Mobile. The HTC message thread view becomes incredibly slow when you have a lot of text messages for a single contact as it wants to load all of them, not just the most recent, which seems bad programming.

It also consumes CPU cycles constantly even when not doing anything which all adds to battery drain.

So I've started to try and get rid of it.

This is what I have done so far:

1) In the Today settings unticked TouchFlo, this gets rid of a chunk of it.

2) Disabled the notification service, this allows clicking on the individual icons for battery etc and you go straight to those settings/information dialogs.

3) Disabled the EnlargeStartMenu setting so the start menu is the normal font size.

Things still remain, and I would like to know how to get rid of them if anyone knows:

a) The TouchFlo style volume control still appears, I want the original back which allows setting individual volumes for system and ringing.

b) Dialogue boxes still have the TouchFlo styling, how do I revert back to.

I've also been able to add HTC Home and all in all the device is so much better and faster.

Regards

Phil
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sunwee:
maybe you can try one of those "manila-free" roms that are starting to appear in the roms section.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] rogeriopcf:
HTC has changed a lot in the Operating system, that's why you can't simply turn off those "skins" like in volume control, I think... At least I didn't find until now a way to get rid of it.

Wait for a simple 6.1 ROM without touchflo and its touchflonettes (lol)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] WMguy:
How did you disable the notification services?
