neglect all error

dump original wm 6 rom with visual kitchen

remove this line from kitchen_build_rom.bat

REM ===========================================================================================

del imgfs-new.bin
del imgfs.bin
del OS.nb.payload

REM ===========================================================================================

neglect all error

u get xip.bin imgfs.bin romhdr.bin from temp copy it somewhere add tool folder of ramersonw in same folder

run this command

imgfsfromdump imgfs.bin imgfs-new.bin

nbwork -b os-hdr.nb os-new.nb xip0.bin xip.bin +1 imgfs-new.bin

build final nbh file with htcrt

i m going to create modify bat file so all this process is get automated

so first work done

we will start our next work that is building native nk.exe for WP 6.5 next month
[P3400 ROM Development] coolaj:
@ankit

i think There is no need to do imgfsfromdump and creat imgfs-new.bin because it already created by visual kitchen ....in the temp folder...

OK, It work well, so what is the different:rolleyes::rolleyes:??

I will try it from now
[P3400 ROM Development] coolaj:
yes this is what i was about to say, you can use helgees kitchen if you want to cook new style platformrebuilder way, helgees kitchen is more easier and fast without any major errors.

The only thing you get in ervius kitchen is a nice gui and other porting options..I did this Imgfs-xip trick with ervius kitchen months back....
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Visual Kitchen has some interesting features:

- it supports multiple editors for various types of files in ROM.

- It lets you change some things in ROM that helgee's kitchen doesn't like the OS version that is displayed on the bootscreen, etc.

- It lets you manage different builds of Windows mobile under one kitchen by seprating files of builds under different folders.

- It lets you work with native WM6.5 nk.exe (if your phone has one) and use the new VMM model.

- It also lets you target your ROM to different DPIs from the same kitchen, so your ROM can work on VGA, QVGA, WVGA etc etc, all phones from single kitchen, provided the packages used in ROM are compatible with all your target phones.

And with all that, there is this comfortable GUI which makes the process a bit more intutive.
[P3400 ROM Development] ankit360:
main advantage i think is we can create ROM for old and new gene with singel click ;)

if kitchen add image update support in future we make rom as early as possible :rolleyes:

also u can port xip easily with is and kitchen is ready for native 6.5 nk.exe kernel
[P3400 ROM Development] coolaj:
Hmmm everyone batting for Visual Kitchen.....

Then visual kitchen it be for our gene...!.

okay now i have dug deep on the rom preparing method of this kitchen and it seems the ULDR part is causing the problem when the kitchen cuts uldr part form the rom t=gene doest boot this is when you get (Flash Write Error) after you take the os-new.nb directly from temp and add extrom to it with htcert to build nbh file..

imgfstonb needs to be reworked in the kitchen_buil.bat file...am working on it this will enable us to use os-new.nb file from kitchen itself and only run htcert instead of nbhutil no need to nbwork... will post result on sucess
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Actually, Gene filesystem doesn't have a ULDR partition. This had started from Kaiser. so by trying to remove this partition, the script is actually corrupting the ROM partitions.

Great find Ajay :)
[P3400 ROM Development] ankit360:
we still need to work this to make it automated

i m working on this maybe kitchen release in next week or till next month
[P3400 ROM Development] coolaj:
I have automated it with a batch file imgfsfromdump-nbwork-htcert, but cant upload i will tell you the steps if you want..
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
I used imgfs-new.bin and XIP result of this visual kitchen, flash success, but i thing the performance is not as good as manual platform rebuilder kitchen, anybody also fell it???
[P3400 ROM Development] ankit360:
performance menace what slow boot or ?
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
boot is normal, open or create email more slow. start menu icon movement is not smooth, it also ever stag when I scroll my email inbox.

I will modify the creat rom.bat again.
[P3400 ROM Development] coolaj:
I dont think there should be a problem with the kitchen because if you are referreing to helgees kitchen as other platformrebuilder , they both have same platformrebuilder version 2.1 and same imgfsfromdump..

what platfromrebuilder does is builds the os and xip and moves it to temp/dump, from where imgfsfromdump is executed...this means both the kitchens are doing the same thing with same exe's.

Try dismantaling your kitchen and build it again...
[P3400 ROM Development] ankit360:
yes you r right
[P3400 ROM Development] coolaj:
hey guys,

I have a issue to discuss on visual kitchen, though it is very easy to dump and rebuild a rom,but if we havee a raw sys and xip.

i am finding it very difficult to create the required sys structure..with raw sys..the kitchen sys structure is very confusing..does any one of you know a easy method to organise the sys in the kitchen..
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
Hi Ankit, Ervius Visual kitchen on GENE, it's not a dream, i make it.
[P3400 ROM Development] ankit360:
that's grate news. vk add some more function to platform rebuilder postnew kitchen when it's ready.
[P3400 ROM Development] Xumit:
Please ...... Someone upload it as zip or rar.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mr_stickz:
Hey my TP won't charge anymore...

I tried alot of things but nothing worked:

I tried another ROM,

i tried another battery, another charger

The guys @ the shop did'nt know what todo either?

ANd i wont send my tp to htc because the last time it came with alot of scrathes back so.....

I'm kinda desperate here...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Scalage:
Have you tried a hard-reset (not the same as installing a different ROM!)?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mr_stickz:
yep didnt work either...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Scalage:
Do you still have warranty? I would go for a replacement, because it certainly isn't a software issue.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] paperWastage:
if you don't want to send it back, another way is to get a cradle that charges just the battery

of course, this wouldn't fix your problem, but it's something you could do
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] JimmyMcGee:
Well is sounds to me like you have got to make a choice, A Working Phone or a Pretty Phone.

At this point its going to need to be replaced, and if you don't want to pay to get it replaced you'll have to get a warranty replacement. In a warranty replacement they will sent you a Refurbished Phone, and It will have scratches, but it will Charge.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazylilsnoop:
is there any other alarm program to replace the current alarm?

it is quite annoying to set the day since i cant remember what day it is n it doesn't show the day on the main screen. i have to go in calender, n then exit out to clock, alarm

i like the auto alarm on certain day, but sometimes i just need a once off alarm without setting the day

cheers
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcan:
By all means G-Alarm! :) THere is also the free Klaxon, but G-Alarm is far better (and it is quite cheap anyway)...

Check it out: http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=galarm/about
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rexriver:
G-alarm is no longer for free...but Klaxon is and it also integrates with TF3D..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcan:
I didn't say G-Alarm s for free... I said it's cheap, as it costs just around 5 euros! :) And it integrates into TF3D as well...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frigorifix:
+1 : tryied Klaxon, didn't wake S2U2... Bought G-Alarm : it's excellent. Reliable, working great with TF3D, a lot of possibilities, G-sensor compatible and all this for 5€ !
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazylilsnoop:
hmm, not to be stingy... but i prefer free, lol

will try Klaxon then =)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] n1ck75:
I notice the Hero Roms have a lot of the HTC widgets in them. Is there anywhere/anyway or getting them out into the wild to be installed/used on Normal Magic Roms?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ADchemist:
i searched around a little and couldn't really find too much on this. There is a thread in the app section but no one answered my question. I need some info on this as well. I am a huge fan of the clocks and before i pre order i want to be sure that i can get some cool stuff on this UI since the hero is a no go for me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] n1ck75:
partly the reason i have asked. i've installed the Hero ROM, but its just too sluggish, but the quality of the widgets are outstanding.

I've banged around inside them to see why they wouldn't run but came up with nothing :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mr.r9:
The widgets depend on a lot of system stuff so that's the reason. However you can try these widgets that look similar to the Hero ones:

check out "Beautiful Widgets" on the market place, it's about 85p and has the weather clock, bluetooth, flight mode and wifi widgets.

He's doing regular updates and adding more.

I bought it back when it was just the clock and was a little worried that the new widgets would be seperate purchases but they're all bundled together in the update :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] n1ck75:
Thanks for the info guys
[G1 General] danielelias:
I've searched a few times and can't really find much on this, but I'm about to root my G1 (the T-Mobile version) and that means fully wiping it. I've got a few apps including open home and SNesoid on there that are paid for and linked to a gmail account I'm wanting to get rid of. When I reinstall everything on the phone I want to use a fresh gmail account with a new user name but I'm not sure how I would get those paid apps transferred to that account. Anyone know of a way to do this?
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
Well there is no way you can get them from the market back because thats all linked to your account and with a new account you would have to buy them again. Make backups of all your apk's and for the protected ones pull them using adb.
[G1 General] G1-evolve:
If I am correct, all you have to do is "relink your market account to your "credit card" info and it should be there. :]
[G1 General] danielelias:
OK perfect. I will probably do both just to be safe. Thanks a lot.
[G1 General] jashsu:
There seems to be a method detailed in the thread here:

[G1 General] M..N:
Hi if i were to buy a app and then cancel the credit card for my gmail account would i still get updates for the app i purchased
[G1 General] jashsu:
Technically the credit card is on your google checkout account, not your gmail account. And as long as you've paid for an app (and not refunded it) you should be able to get updates for it on that google account as long as the developer provides them.
[G1 General] M..N:
ok thanks for that but would i still get the app updates if i cancel my google checkout account?
[G1 General] jashsu:
It's likely that when you attempt to redownload an app you had previously purchased but uninstalled that the market backend parses your google checkout account for a record of having purchased an app. Since there's no way currently to remove checkout from a Google account, there's probably no way you could get into a situation where your checkout history became unaccessible for the market backend.

Of course until someone has any actual experience in this matter, all I wrote above is just an educated guess.
[G1 General] yeticomes:
I just flashed a new ROM and configurated it with my Google Apps Account.

Then I went to Market and searched for a app I had bought with my normal Google Account which is connected to Checkout.

Market asked me for a gmail Account because the Apps account does not work for buying at the Market and I entered the GMail account informations and still had to buy the app I still have bought before?!

How can I tell Market to show me the apps I still have bought? And yes, I bought it with the same credit card, I did not make any change at checkout
[G1 General] CBowley:
I would contact the developer of said app and explain the situation and provide your info and see if he will honor it. I don't see where a dev would have a problem sending you an apk providing you proved that you purchased it.

[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
All of the sudden, all the files on my SD card went missing! I was transferring music and video files to the device over USB (as a storage card, per the custom ROM USB/PC feature) and after it was done, it showed my card as blank.

I took the card out of the phone (XV6900) and put it into my SD adapter and into my computer. The 4GB card shows that 1.8GB are in use when I go to properties, however, there are no files at all in the root of the drive! Like they are invisible! (Yes, I have Windows set to show all hidden and system files, so that is not the problem)

How do I get my files to reappear? It looks like they are not actually deleted! i don't get why this happened all of the sudden :(
[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
you can try an undelete program and check the sdcard while in the reader

undelete programs can handle sdreaders just like they can hd's
[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
Did that already...it found a ton of stuff that used to be on there, but not the current files.
[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
had the same thing happen to me once in awhile

where the sdcard just get corrupt which is why I keep

an raw copy of it on my computer in case I need to copy it back
[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
I'm using the same 4GB card as my old phones. this never happened on my Titan or TouchPro, each of which I have for a year or so. I have had a Vogue for 1 week and it has happened twice! does the XV6900 wipe the card periodically or when performing certain actions? even on a ROM update/flash it should touch the SD card when running from the RUU package in windows
[G1 Apps and Games] Geniusdog254:
OK, by far the coolest app I have on my iPhone is iSwap Faces. It lets you take a pic with two peoples faces in it, select the faces, and it swaps them.

I would love to see an app like this & would pay up to $10 for it. Heres a review of it too.

I've uploaded 2 sample images, the same pic but one swapped & one not. They are great lol.

Anyone else want this?
[G1 Apps and Games] kizer:
Haha, they do have an app for everything. That is so bizarre and yet funny too.
[G1 Apps and Games] Geniusdog254:
Haha yeah they are great, thats my buddy & my math teacher, I have one of my mom & dad that is just scary lol but I'm not posting it.

Surely this is doable on Android, I mean we already have the app that mirrors the camera image (I think its called Symmetricam or something like that) side by side. C'mon guys if I knew how to program I would do it.
[G1 Apps and Games] shawnjay:
I would like to have that app too, great idea!
[G1 Apps and Games] Geniusdog254:
Hmmm. I think I'll contact the developer of Symmertricam and see if he'd like to try it.
[G1 Apps and Games] Geniusdog254:
Well I just downloaded the McGraw Hill "Guide to Android Programming" and if I can't get ahold of "ymst" (the developer of symmetricam) I'll give it a shot.
[G1 Apps and Games] SolemnWishing:
Uhhh... its called "Swap Faces Lite" - Android Market.
[G1 Apps and Games] Geniusdog254:
Haha wow. Never knew that. It's decent but its not near as good as the iPhone equivalent. You can't even take a picture from within the app. I'll still check out writing my own version, if not for anything but experience.

the 1.007 microsoft facebook suck biiiiiig time.

Mostly with me it just says "fetching" for every tab and never gets the job done. And it doesn't update the stuff.

So I use opera on my HD for that stuff, fast - but many things are missing on the mobile version, like foto upload.

When you go to All contacts on your phone and check there the updates - once you have given your userid and pwd - it seems to find the known contacts quite well.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 1onew0lf:
Hi all, i just bought my HTC diamond today and it came with the spl 1.93.00.. I tried upgrading to the signed and unsigned versions of Olinex 1.93 hard spl..... But the process starts but the progress bar is stuck at 0% and is not moving.... Can someone please help me out.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] endlessspace:
Hi 1onew0lf,

I have very similar problem, spent the whole day trying to update to Hard-SPL

I have a MDA Compact IV - T-Mobile (German) version of Diamond.

The original SPL, if I go to a boot loader mode, shows:

Original ROM Versions are:

When I try to run ROMUpdateUtility.exe after answering "Yes" (Ja) on the screen of Diamond on the request to place the enterbootloader.exe into \Windows directory the device goes black screen and never comes back.

After 1-2 min. the ROMUpdateUtility.exe utility gives an Error 260: CONNECTION and informs that USB is disconnected, the Active Sync is already long time grayed out.

I tried a trick described in the pinned forum to run SSPL manually: I copied SSPL-Manual.exe into a Temp folder on the device and launched it from Diamond with the same effect: black screen till I do a soft reset of device. I have found somewhere a tip to update the .NET CF to the latest version, and I did so have now .NET CF 3.5 on the device, it didn't solve the problem.

So I may assume that device somehow is not able to switch to SSPL mode, but nobody speaks of such problems! :eek:

Looking for anyone who may help us to solve this problem!

Thanks in advance!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] endlessspace:
yepiee! I actually did it! I managed to update to Hard-SPL

So, first of all the black screen IS actually the SSPL mode of device. My only problem was that USB drivers were not automatically configured. I'm not sure is it a problem with Windows XP SP3, or I messed up some settings for USB devices long time ago.

So what I did is before starting ROMUpdateUtility.exe I opened the Windows Device Manager and placed at the background. Then started the regular procedure of updating to Hard-SPL.

At the moment the screen of the device turned to black a new USB device appeared in the Device Manager, but with exclamation sing giving me a hint that no proper driver found/configured automatically.

Right click -> Update driver... -> Search for suitable driver - did a trick for me. I picked up a second driver from the list of choices with number 32 instead of 16. After the driver was successfully installed the update continued and eventually ended with congratulation message about successful update!

I hope my experience may help someone as well.
