I've never had problems with HardSPL. But if you really don't want to use HardSPL, if the nbh file is big enough, you can always download and use USPL to flash it. (But it has to be at least 52,000kb large.)

I've never seen anyone with HardSPL have that many problems.

Yea, I would make a kitchen for the TP2, too, if I had one, but I don't. :p
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
With this kitchen, it's as simple as:

Copy an existing ROM\HERALD\Build and name it the new build.

Copy the new MSKernelXIP into the ROM\SHARED\BUILD (obviously, instead of build, use the number of the build)

Copy all the proper SYS files within their own BUILD number using the correct file structure.

The kitchen takes care of the rest. Don't worry about any files and modding files. Just make sure you get a SYS with your language and DPI.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
Don't they already have a kitchen? Or am I gonna have to start that off on the TP2's? (I get mine in what...12 hours!!!)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Not the slightest clue. :p

Either way, I'm expanding my multi language kitchen to all devices, eventually. It's just that without the actual devices, it's impossible to test things so it takes much longer. First, though, I have to fix the Russian build for the Herald. It's broken...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
I've done that. Multiple times. Multiple ways. Had no luck.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Then you're doing something wrong. ^_^

Today and yesterday, I tried to port 23022 and 23024 before porting 23025 and finally realizing the 2 small mistakes I kept committing. Make sure you have your .ROM in your SYS/build/COMMON/SHARED

Make sure you also have your WinCENLS_WWE is also in that folder. Make sure you have a FWUPDATE folder, also. Etc, etc, etc.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
I hope you made a typo...

"SYS\21051\SHARED"

That's the path fresh from how your packages installed. There's no COMMON folder there. Correct? Or did your installers mess up?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] eichenberg:
From what I understand following the Rhodium thread is that they are waiting to get HardSPL for the TP2, once they get that they will be ableto start cooking.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
Hmm, k. I'll just play around with Touch Flo 3D for a while, and the accelerometer, and the pure power, and the.....It'll be fun.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] eichenberg:
Ok so what am I doing wrong with the OEM2EXT function in the Extra buton...I click on it, it gives an option of OEM (default) or Partial. I choose OEM, then it tells me to place OEM packages in the window that is about to open, then my Documents folder opens, I click and drag the OEM package folder I created with package creator into my Documents folder. Close Documents and hit a key. Next it tells me All OEM's Converted to EXT Packages...Searching for moduales...Press any key to continue...Done...press any key to access converted packages...press any key...My Documents folder opens up again and the same folder with the same files is still there with nothing new added??? What am I doing wrong
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
That's what I meant. :p

Yea, that's usually how it's like. (That and figuring out if it's also a NBH format and what the memory addresses are (which means you need an RUU to dismantle.)

Before we had a HardSPL or an USPL, we had another way of doing things... it was complicated... it didn't give you back the storage space from using a smaller ROM and you couldn't flash anything larger than the preinstalled ROM, but it worked...

It's not supposed to open up My Documents. I think I know what the problem is... the installer deletes any folders that are blank and the folder required was deleted. I'll have to place a placeholder in the folder for the next release. In the mean time, go to C:\kitchens\SuperJustKitchen\Working_Folder\TOOLS\extrabuttons and create a folder called OEMtoEXT.

While you're at it, in C:\kitchens\SuperJustKitchen\Working_Folder\TOOLS\extrabuttons\Compress create two folders, one called Optimized and one called Original. Then try the button again. It should work just fine this time.

I didn't catch that, even though I caught it with the EXT folders (the blank ones also disappeared when I first created the installer, which is why there was a day's delay in me releasing them.)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] eichenberg:
Adding those folders did the trick, thanks Ivan, off to bed and will test the rom i just cooked tomorrow, err in the morning
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
ivan i flashed a rom after creating it from your kitchen i flashed it through uspl it was of 55 mb(.nbh file)... it was updated successfully but the whole today and menu screen is white and blank and nothing is visible insead of start... i tried to get back to just home v19 which i was using earlier nothing is getting flashed now... its showing that there is no response from my herald...

plz help

thanx
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
Go to bootloader...

Hold down the camera button, and then while holding the camera button, press and release the soft reset button. Continue to hold the camera button until you see a new screen appear (be it white or the colorscreen).

Then connect via USB and flash. That should work.

And in the kitchen, did you enable NetCF as one of your selected options?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Exactly what ace said. You neglected to enable something in the kitchen. Place the phone back into bootloader mode.

Everyone making a ROM, please be sure you know how to flash and how to recover from a bad flash first, before attempting to mess around with creating a ROM. It'll prevent you lots of headaches, trust me.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] nonpaq:
Show off :D
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] nonpaq:
Ivan, Any chance you can release your saved ROM config files (.erv file) for any flavor ROM builds you make, so we can use them as a basis for us to modify?

Also, is it possible to take a successful build for english, and just change the language, or do too many things change when you pick a new language?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
You would also need all the EXT folders. I didn't make my old ROMs with this kitchen, though.

As long as your EXT packages have the needed language files, you can make a ROM and duplicate it in ALL 13 languages.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
thanx so much for ur reply but in bootloader mode active sync is not getting enabled... what should i do and ya i enabled .net cf

thanx
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Activesync IS enabled but it won't turn green since you're not syncing, since you're not in Windows Mobile.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] elazullizard:
Don't mind this. I fixed the problem already.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
i have tried that also ivan i flashed justhome v19 through uspl in bootloader mode but the process stops at 3% shows image file corrupted.... and my herald is not hard spl'd.... what can i do now???? how can i flash the just home rom....
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Are you trying to flash smaller ROMs or LZX ROMs? Any ROM that is smaller than 50mb has to be flashed through the SD.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
ya i know about this i have been flashing roms which are higher than 50 mb(like the just home v19 or my created roms through ur kitchen) and m not flashing the lzx version...........

what should i do now???

thanx
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] eichenberg:
What I had to do was put phone in bootloader mode, THEN run the T Mobile offical rom...then after phone set up let the phone connect and then flash to whatever rom i wanted to using flashcenter
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
thanx for the help but i have tried this also i download herald official rom and flashed it in the bootloader mode but it is showing invalid vendor id check rom update utility....

plz help
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Why are you flashing back to the Official Tmobile ROM? There's no need to.

Well... You didn't exactly answer my question. Is the nbh smaller than 50mb?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
no it is not smaller than 50 mb....

plz help

thanx
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Did you follow step 4?

Other than that, what is the size of the nbh exactly? (in kb)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
yes i followed all the steps very carefully... i selected the matching sys to 23016 and also changed the build no. to 5.2.23016......

the size of the nbh file is of 55,753 kb

thanx
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Wait, you said you're not hardspl'ed. You're not flashing through the SD, right? That REQUIRES HardSPL. And if you're not, you HAVE to use USPL.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
no i am not flashing through sd.... i have been using uspl only in the bootloader mode but everytime i do it, flashing stops at 3 or 4% and shows image file corrupted check update utility...

thanx

plz help
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
USPL doesn't work in the bootloader mode. What USPL does is load a SPL into the RAM THROUGH Windows Mobile. To flash anything that's not the RUU while in bootloader mode, you have to be HardSPL'd.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
then what should i do ivan.... im rly worried bcoz when i press herald uspl then a dos windows comes and it is not able to launch ruu in my herald and it is not able to flash any rom

plz help
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Flash back to the stock RUU. Then HardSPL. That way next time you won't need USPL at all.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
can you please tell me that how should i flash back to the stock ruu...

where can i find the stock ruu..and do i have flash it through uspl like i always used to do...

rly rly rly sorry for disturbing u so much:(

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=396364 <This forum has a link to the T-Mo 4.26.531.4 update. Use it to flash the original back. After you have flashed {& wm6 is completely booted}, Flash a HardSPL to the phone {Read: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=332413 }. HardSPL is Here> http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=56049&d=1193629329 . Be sure to read How to HardSPL as there are a few steps nessecary.

If you are unable to flash thru the PC, then flash thru the SD card.

How to flash through SD:

-Format an SD card to Fat32! {A 128MB card is highly recommended (Same size as internal ROM). Larger cards may need to be partitioned}

-Copy your ***.nbh file to the SD card

-Rename ***.nbh to HERAIMG.nbh {Must be CAPS Heraimg.nbh will not work!}

-Place card in Phone!

-Hold in the camera button while soft resetting the herald. You will see a confimation screen {If it goes to the multi-colored boot screen you did something wrong}

-Slide the volume button down. you will see "Reading SD..." at the bottom left screen.

-Wait forever!!!!!!!! DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING!!!

-When the bottom left says it's "Done, Press any key"; Press Send. Screen will then go into Bootloader.

-Reset your device. Your first bootscreen will show the CanonYang Logo.

-Enjoy! You can now flash any Herald ROMs. :)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] eichenberg:
Like a mentioned a few posts back, everytime I have tried to HardSPL it works, but then I have all kinds of problems with connecting to the computer to sync (or just to connect). Everytime, I HardSPL my phone I run into the same problem, it will not connect no matter if the USB to PC is checked or not. It simply does not connect. So the only way to un HardSPL is to flash back to official ROM and since the phone will not connect to the PC I have to put phone in bootloader mode and then run thier offical ROM.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
That's right. But why flash back when you aren't using HardSPL? You don't need to flash back to the RUU at all.

And Hemans, just flash it while in bootloader mode.

This is really meant to be a tool for cooks. In order for me to support the kitchen part, we much all know how to recover from a bad flash and how to flash in general before using the tool. I have various walkthroughs posted around these forums that deal with how to flash. Please read through them. They should help most of you having problems flashing.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Humblehippie:
Are you currently HardSPL'd? if so try this: Open the official RUU from T-Mo with 7-Zip. Extract the entire thing. Delete the 2 .nbh files {RUU_Signed & SPL}. Now copy the ROM you want into this folder. Rename your ROM RUU_Signed.nbh. Run ROMUpdateUtility as you normally would.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] eichenberg:
I had not thought of that as I was too concerned with getting my phone to connect and sync becuase it was my only phone and I needed to sync my contacts to the phone as I use it for business. Now that I have the TP2, I don't have to be so cautious with my wing.

Spent that last few days playing with the TP2, but I will be getting back into the cooking for the Wing and honeing my cooking.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] elazullizard:
How would I cook in .reg files? I am not very familiar with this kitchen...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
but ivan u only told that i cant flash any rom in bootloader mode because my phone is not hard spl'd... and i have also tried to flash many roms through bootloader but it stops flashing at 3%...and if i try flashing by enabling active sync when my phone is not in bootloader mode then it shows that my phone is not responding....

pls help

thanx :(
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
same way as always. It hasnt changed. You'll have to search for how to do reg edits. they can be tricky sometimes. But its the same on this kitchen as with any other.

To guy who temoprarily bricked his phone...You should have been proficient in flashing before ever thinking about cooking.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj2:
Let me see if I can clarify it again:

1. You're not HardSPLed.

2. To flash anything OTHER than the STOCK RUU through the bootloader, you MUST have HardSPL.

3. USPL boots THROUGH windows mobile. You MUST be INSIDE windows mobile to flash it.

4. USPL will NOT work in bootloader mode because Windows Mobile isn't running in the bootloader mode.

5. If you're not HardSPL'd, you can flash the stock RUU only while in bootloader mode.

6. If you want to flash a third party ROM and you're not HardSPL'd and you currently can't boot windows mobile, you must reflash the stock RUU FIRST then reflash with USPL to something else.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj2:
Look at the EXT folders for an example.

Add an EXT package, add a "files" folder. Add a app.reg and just add your settings to it.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] elazullizard:
Thank you Ivan clone! I'm making a lot of progress now that I don't have to depend on my Wing!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] coburn_c:
does this work under 64 bit operating systems?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
Should work no problem. Vista and Win7 shouldn't have any problems. The only possible problem would be connecting to your phone to flash, but I'm assuming you've flashed your phone before, so that shouldn't be a problem.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
ivan can you plz give me the download for the stock ruu for herald... or should i download the official rom for herald(rapidshare link) and then extract the .nbh and flash it in bootloader mode by running ruu....

thanx

plz help
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
I think I just PMed you. The one link I sent you looked like it was the full EXE program, so you run that program, and it includes the RUU and the NBH. So, that's your all-in-one solution. Check your inbox.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] elazullizard:
I'm having trouble getting Autorun.exe to actually run. Everything else I cooked into the ROM worked fine, it's just that Autorun won't run upon first boot. For some reason, it won't start if I try activating it directly from the \Windows\ folder, either.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Is it with WM6.5? The stock WM6.5 doesn't work with it. I have to add a wm6.5 compatible one for the next build.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] elazullizard:
No, the strange thing is that it's a 6.1 build. I think that it might be an EXT package that I added, though. I'll try building a completely clean ROM with the original packages included and see.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
ya i have already tried it once but the flashing stops at 3%....

is there any other solution???

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Before we keep filling up this cooking thread with flashing questions, answer the following:

1. What phone do you have? HTC Herald? HTC Atlas? Tmobile Wing? One of the many other variations?

2. Did you flash the RUU that BELONGS to your phone?

3. Are you sure you aren't HardSPL'd?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
1. i have htc herald

2. yes i downloaded the ruu which belongs to my phone

3. yes i am sure that my herald is not hard spl'd

when i flash the stock ruu it shows invalid vendor id and stops between 1 to 4%...

plz help

thanx so much ivan and ace
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
You downloaded the ruu from htc, not the one that they posted in this thread.

The error you're getting means that either your HardSPL'd or you're using the wrong RUU.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hanifudins:
Basicly i'm new with cooking things like this... after reading this thread i get improvement for learning new thing... i need more detail walkthrough using this kitchen like every button on the kitchen...what for and what those mean... (sorry for this)... or how to instal cab on ext rom (should i just copy the cab to the folder or what)... or how to remove the picture in first boot...or what i can removed or not... any idea where can i get links or something like that...btw thanks for your hard work ivan...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
This isn't the kitchen for you, then. Right now, Ivan's gotta fix some MAJOR bugs in the ROM's. Go with the older Ivan-based kitchens. There's an amazing guide that explains everything you need. You'll find it all below...

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] rstweb:
For cooks, this kitchen is a great help! So, good work Ivan!

But if you really want to cook, you also need to know a lot more than only click on some small buttons. Please read this forum carefully. Everything is explained at xda-dev (especially in the herald forums). You have to read a lot. It would also be nice if you know something about the windows operating system in general.

And as hint: Sometimes working with try & error hels a lot ^^
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] rstweb:
And now, I will post some bugs:

When adding the package AdobeReaderLE, platformrebuilder crashes with an unhandled exception error. It seems that there is an error in the package.

When creating a ROM build 23016, i can't change time and date. Used default settings.

When creating a ROM build 23016, the menu has icons with a poor quality. It seems that they are too small. Other customs ROMs (for example numb3rs) has better quality. The images are clear visible.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Unfortunately, the poor quality isn't a bug... it's the default icons you get. :p Most cooks and sources replace them with nicer icons, which is why JustHome had nicer ones and all other current ROMs had nicer ones (because their sources made them nicer.)

As far as the walkthrough, this isn't a "how to cook" walkthrough. It's a "How to use this kitchen since you are ALREADY a cook" walkthrough. I might make a walkthrough later on more advanced things, but it's really time consuming and I don't really have the time.

i think i should give my herald to the service centre...

what do u think

:(:(
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Is your Herald a WWE Herald? The RUU depends on the EXACT version of Herald that you have. Not just "herald" since there are many different versions and many different languages.

Also, what SPL do you have? It's not 1.x or something is it? If it is, then you bricked it and you'll have to use a Goldcard to fix it. (Search for goldcard.) You can even use a goldcard to flash right now, if you wanted to.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hemans:
dont know about wwe... but its the htc p4350 and is the english version....i guess its wwe bcoz i ve flashed asearg once on my herald(hera 100).....

my spl is 4.24.0000
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ace10134:
WWE is the language. English.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
That's the WWE.

Try this one:

http://rapidshare.com/files/50472900/HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe

If that RUU doesn't work, then you probably should try to make a Goldcard. It looks like your SPL somehow got damaged.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:

Remove extra netcf's, extra dummy fwupdate, extra SQM's

6.5 compatible autorun

Active Sync not working

I just build a 6.1 ROM and can not get active sync to work. I am hardspl'd and flashed through SD card. Once phone was set up I connected to PC and WMDC just says error with a red x. All functions of the phone seem to be working fine. I unplug my wing and plug in my TP2 and WMDC works fine, so it has to be something with my ROM. The other weird thing is that I can browse to my computer and my wing is listed as a device. I click on it and i have access to phone and SD Card. Any ideas?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
I noticed that a few days ago... it's not even attempting to sync on my end. It's on all the builds, so it must be something in the OEM folders from the Herald that I used. It connects but doesn't attempt to initiate the sync. I'm currently working on a lot of under the hood stuff so I'll be looking for that.

Thanks for reporting it.
