[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] CR7KB24:
Would it be possible to make a cab for just the Hero clock.

And also you should use this black dock instaed of the one you are using right now, looks a lot more like the original hero clock, I made it myself here is what i would like it to look it after completed. (This picture was made in gimp)

If you are interested in using this just pm me
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
it sounds like an issue with TF3D, are you able to set any other types of images as your background? try .jpgs maybe ?

if so let me know i can reformat the background and post it

like i mentioned before the clock is just a wallpaper that is made to match the panoramic background so as long as your TF can post a background image it should work :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] emresumengen:
Sorry if this is a noob's question, but I can't really be sure if this works ok with TF3D2.1 (I'm using Gen.Y R3 rom)...

I'm actually drolling over the images here, but don't have the courage to try (not now at least, as I've recently flashed my ROM and gave a reasonable amount of time to reinstall-reconfigure all apps)

So, I'd be really gratefull, if someone can confirm compatibility. (The actual version I'm running is TouchFLO 3D 2.1.38680.0 VGA, as reported in settings)

Thanks in advance...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
It should work just fine i can't remember but i'm pretty sure i already tested it on that version of 2.1. And even if it doesn't files are uninstallable. so enjoy it :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] emresumengen:
Thanks, I'll give it a go and post results then :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Aaron McCarthy:
Alright.. I reinstalled TF3D2 and then installed this and it works.... I now have the black border. That said, is it supposed to look like the picture below in landscape?

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] suiller:
it's too nice this "theme"... can I include in latest dia duit rom? :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
Sure, but if you could put a link back to this post so people know where it came from that would be great :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] suiller:
of course :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Aaron McCarthy:
Anyone else have this issue? Is this normal?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
Sorry for the slow reply didn't see the post, ya thats a known issue for now. hopefully have a fix soon but thanks for bringing it to my attention. will try to have a fix for it soon but it might have to come after i get WVGA working (which will hopefully be tomorrow) :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Aaron McCarthy:
Sounds good. I'm sure there's a way to have a reg edit where a seperate wallpaper can be set in landscape mode.

This mod here is for a panoramic background.. much like is used in this mod. In landscape they have a seperate wallpaper that is used and sized differently.. or at least was when it was first released. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=547941. Something out of this coding may help with the issue in landscape with this mod.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
ya i've been looking but not having any luck, i looked into a few files myself but have made limited progress.

the easiest thing would be if TF would allow a different portrait and different landscape wallpaper but unfortunately it doesn't (and apparently their arn't any mods to change that :( )

i'll try taking a deeper look later on but i for now i want to get WVGA development caught up so i can post it over at the other sections - for WVGA i just have to adjust allignment and then its done, and monday is when i get my hands on the test device so should be done very soon :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
WVGA v3 released
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gofawkurself:
does anyone have the files for just the slider and icons? i love it. but use a different clock.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bog3nator:
i would also like to know if i could get the slider and slider bar minus the icons, i have different ones i would like to use :-)...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
if you download the "no icons fix" it won't replace your custom icons on the slider (but it will still replace the slider and slider bar)

or you can download the theme and just reinstall your custom icons

(in most cases it should work)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Fmstrat:
Has anyone tried this on a Sprint Touch Pro? I get a blank screen with just the background displayed. No icon's show up at all, no clock, nothing. I do get my softkeys, and going to programs works, but I can't go back after that. Even the home button doesn't work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] averma:
are you using manila 2.1? or stock

this theme is manila 2.1 compatible
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Fmstrat:
Ahh, I'm running stock. Is it possible to update to 2.1 without updating my ROM?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Aaron McCarthy:
yes...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=542113
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Fmstrat:
Thanks, I found that during my search this afternoon (probably should have done that first, huh? Sorry). Unfortuately the statement of "WM6.1 Build 21000+ recommended" kills it for me, since I've got an older version. I guess I could try it and see what happens.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Aaron McCarthy:
I'm running the stock ATT Rom.. works fine for me so go ahead and give it a shot.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Overloaded:
It looks very cool and promising..

But, too bad it doesn't work with WM6.5 stock (Manila 2.1)

If you could make an update for this. it would be AWESOME :D

How do I switch to cyanogen rom to a hero rom properly?

Which hero rom do I choose? "Best rom"

If I do nandroid backup will my apps from my ext3 be restored?

Don't want to get rid of my apps

I've tried two different roms drizzy hero & JacxHero but on drizzy I get stuck on some htc smart mobilty screen and on Jacs I get stuck on boot loops please help just want to go back to hero for a little while
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
if you go from a AOSP rom to a hero rom you have to wipe your ext3 and phone. a nandroid will not restore your ext3 bc it only backs up your phone. there is a thread in the dev forum called want to run hero, read this first. i suggest searching for it and reading it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
Hmmm......How bout if I switch sd cards. As in having 1 card for the hero and then when I go back to an AOSP ROM use the card that has the partitions in em with apps
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Bah! I've switched from Cyan to Jac several times in a day without wiping my ext :P

Btw, Scooty Puff junior ftw =P

Anyway, my advise is go for this ROM, and go for version 1.51, not 1.54, it's much faster. I didn't have to wipe my ext3 when using that ROM. The fact that Drizzy's builds required a clean ext is the reason I've never flashed any of his builds (amongst other thing, but lets not start a flame war)...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
Thankx ! :) just the type of a reply I was looking for. Gonna install the ROM you reffered me to but I want a jac build and stay in boot loop. Should I just install 1.5.1 then wipe and install jacs?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] just2good4u3434:
Honestly I would just stick with 1.5.1. Ive used JACs latest hero build and many of the HERO2 builds and 1.5.1 was by far the best.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
Flashing now stayed on Black screen for 10+ minutes...rebooted and still stuck on black screen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ufvj217:
would you suggest just staying on 1.5.1 and not updating even to .2 or .3 (i know you said dont get 1.5.4)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
Its impossible for me to install hero I've tried 3 and tried doing the 1.5.1 rom but I get stuck on the black screen. Please help me on how to install this perfectly from a cyanogen 4.1.11.1 rom
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Believe me, this ROM is blazingly fast compared to 2.1jacheroskiv. 1.5.1 will stay on the black screen for a long time, but not 10 mintes, just wipe your ext

go to the recovery console:

mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd

rm -r /system/sd/*

wipe, reflash, reboot...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1ghtl1fe:
i use backup for root users backing up apps. It works for me. APPS ONLY though idk bout anything else. try that
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:
omg no one mentions the switchrom.sh script?!?!

you all fail at Q&A :P

switchrom will backup your apps and dalvik cache and do a nandroid backup. search for it in the dev forum.

I flashed hero and it got onto screen perfectly but stays on htc logo

What's happening?

When I wiped ext3 it said resource or file something is busy....what does that mean?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Doesnt hero require 3 partitions... i mean, you have that done right?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
Nahh I only have 2 but you don't really need swap....but I am going to repartition my card with linux swap later on this week but still I am stuck on htc screen after it boots up I can only acess lockscreen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
You wiped from the recovery console, not the terminal right?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
I did this exactly

Clear dalvik cach

Clear ext3

Go back wipe

Fixed filesystem

Hero didn't work

Then I. Just cleared ext3

Wipe

Fixed filesystem

Hero booted up but stays on htc screen

And still said the resource thing is busy when I tried to clear ext3
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prince.siraj:
It seems that with hero you are required to have all three partitions, whether you use them all or not... but I would recommend a 64mb partition and set linux-swap with 60 swappiness and it should be good...

EDIT: if you want your g1 to work until you repartition your SD, just stick with cyanogen...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
if I partition my sd card with 64 mb swap would that do anything to cyanogen rom besides making it faster?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
i have noticed no ill effects of it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
It wont be used automatically, you'll need to create user.conf and userinit.sh files on your ext. Link in my sig.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFiend:
I don't get this userinit file

When I edit in my text editor in linux I save it and its good but when I try to configure it in terminal it says "shift: can't shift too many" what's that mean?

How would I enable this properly step by step
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I'm also needing help with user files.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WambOO:
i want to switch from cyano to hero too.

i rooted my german g1 using the "1-click-method".

now i want to flash an up-to-date hero build, can somebody please tell me if i need a new radio and/or spl - and if yes, which one?

would this order be right?

1. flash new radio

2. flash new spl

3. wipe

4. format my class6 card

5. flash the hero build

tia :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prince.siraj:
You don't need to format the whole sd card, just the ext partition. So for #4, after wiping go to console and type

mount /system

mount /data

rm -rf /system/sd/*

rm -rf /data/*

reboot recovery

And flash. Hope that helps ;)

[UC]XDA_UC V2.RC1, Automated & Silent User & Cook, Configuration Service[14/05/10]

V2.RC1 Update,... New AutoShortcut Commands, new SDConfig.txt Commands, Manual and Storage Card install folders added, Extra parameters for Cooks.

I'll be updating all documentation accordingly later today.
​

Another (The?) new way to implement User Customization and Cooking.

This Thread is meant for Rom Cooks.

Users should take a look at the User To User Tips, Tricks ideas and issues thread.

What the XDA UC service does, is silently install (or not so silently if needed by User), .cab, .xdas, .xml, .reg, .mscr, copy over user manila files, install files from SDconfig.txt if wanted and then a few extra's for the freaks like copying folders or creating shortcuts from specific registries. This happens either at first or second boot depending on the existence of either RunCC.exe or Autorun.exe in rom.

It's all Mortcsript so it's very easy to get a grasp of it and change the behaviour and or Chip in adjustments/improvements.

But no knowledge of mortscript is needed to implement

It Uses DotFred's Taskmanager to parse and implement the .reg and .xml files. But it can also be used to disable or enable services or register DLL files.

More Information about the XDA Type Files at:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...ename=XDA_file

My Shout out for this Two Year Long Evolving Collaborating Endeavour go to:

Bengalih (that has a very similar UC variant called Sashimi and helped with some of the early scripts I was trying to do with mort while cooking, I wish I could have collaborated more with him, it would have saved time re-inventing the wheel), RoryB for bouncing back ideas, supplying new scripts and perfecting older ones, serfer222 For making the script compacter, jmckeejr, Ameet & the whole Digital XDA SPC Cooking Crew, bbobeckyj, CLHatch, Scinor, Mort, Sleuth255, McCune, DotFred, MrVanx, danny_and_2, Cmonex, utak3r, Laurentius26, Radimus, and the Whole Original SPC Crew for accepting my obsessions.

For Knowingly helping me get the information, unknowingly helping me get the information or motivated me in keep going on in my Quest resulting in this.

If I Forgot you, Forgive me.

If you feel that certain information that has been used originated by you give me a holler and I will credit you if this is so.

Before you consider buying me a beer. Please consider Donating to XDA to help out with the maintenance of the forum and get cool stars next to your Nickname showing your appreciation. Then there are always the people that without their apps this wouldn't have been possible at all that you can consider showing some love. Mort, DotFred & Sleuth255 All of whom made Apps Seemingly simple But oh so useful for the whole XDA and PocketPC community.

Download and Info in next Post
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Noonski:
What this version of the XDA UC service does, is silently install and execute (listed in the order the items get installed)

Run the Users customisations of course.

User side information here...

Run Cook.mscr in Windows folder(For Cooks Only)

More Cook info coming.

Add native support for .mscr, .mortrun, .xda, xdai, xdas & .xdaz files

(Where in "\Storage Card\" is read from HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory For MultiLanguage Support)

Requirements

The Rom should have the security relaxed in HKLM\Security\Policies\Polices by setting the value 0000101a to a 1.

So unsigned installations and Mortscript do not give a security error.

If you have a different language then English, don't forget to change the path in the initflashfiles.txt/app.dat file (if your using legacy kitchen ;))

The rest of the script should dynamcliy get the correct variable for the storage location.

In the end the process it comes down to the device starting after flashing and not needing any reboot while silently installing Cook and User configurations.

On the User end and cook end no SDConfig.txt ort config.txt file is needed.

Attached the OEM Package and a Sample Package for SD.

(Klaxon.Cab, GoogleMaps.xdas, two .reg files, two xml files, my.tsk, and a test mortscript)

The Control factors of the Sample SD Package is that is should install

HKLM\Software\XDA\Test\Reg 1 Parsed=1

HKLM\Software\XDA\Test\Reg 2 Parsed=1

HKLM\Software\XDA\Test\xml1parsed=1

HKLM\Software\XDA\Test\xml2parsed=1

These are the tweaks present in those files.

In addition everything installed will be found under

HKLM\Software\XDA\UC\

And the Morscript in the sample SD Card Package should give a message to confirm it was executed "Mort UC From SD Working"

Cab Files and XDAS files should eventually just be in the startMenu Programs.

G-Alarm is there because it needs User interaction and that will pop up when it needs your attention.

At the end of it all you get a message Installations have finished.

When using SDConfig.txt be sure to add a blank line at the end of it.

Disclaimer:

Please be aware that the XDA_UC script contains a disclaimer, not to post errors with it to the Mortscript forums, and the usual this **** cloud be dangerous to your phones health.

For Standalone version, place XDA_UC folder from "User_Storage Card" on Storage Card.

Then run "\Storage Card\XDA_UC\Install\XDA_UC.exe"

Cook.mscr

If your cooking and want your own mortscript to also be run at first boot just name it cook.mscr and put it into Windows folder.

Update: From Version 1.2.0 Cook.mscr will be executed at the same moment as the rest of XDA_UC, so this is depended on if RunCC or Autorun is used.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] trinode:
Suggestion:

install the cabs in a known order, perhaps alphabetically, so that we can name the files in the order to install like so

10_MSVC.CAB

20_PIMBackup.Cab

etc means we can control the install order.

:D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Noonski:
Reason I chose not to use the known "Cabs" folder is not to screw with that configuration.

(XDA_UC is backwards compatible with SDAutorun v2 SDConfig.txt)

Cabs will be automatically be parsed alphabetically that's a default when more cab's are being processed.

At least I think so ;)

It's using MortScripts ForEach File command.

Almost Everything processed will be written to registry under.

HKLM\Software\XDA\UC

And no more hassle with cabs that need user interaction.

You just interact when they come up.

If it's a good idea I could also make it check for a present Welcomehead.png or the Existence of a TF3D folder to copy over personal TF3D files.

Uploaded the OEM and a Sample SD Test Package.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mbarvian:
is there a way this could be done without removing the RUNCC?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Noonski:
Yes there is.

There's a few different solutions.

I have added your request to the first Posts.

It runs at second boot and skips a few things that RunCC takes care of like installing cabs present in the windows folder.

This way you can keep everything is with RunCC and the welcome.lnk in initflashfiles.dat

Personally I prefer the First method with no reboots at all but it does require some extra meddling in the Rom.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mac_es:
Hello,

I have some questions...

Which version is this? 1.0.9.0?

RunCC can execute the same commands in config.txt? (EXEC, TSK, XML, CAB...)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Noonski:
I have yet to get a hold of the version l3v5y's using.

Yes RunCC can but it needs configuration. Now for a cook that isn't any problem. But for Simple users all they need to do is drop some cabs and tweaks they have collected throughout the forum into a folder not be annoyed by.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] chavonbravo:
I posted a rom already that has runcc installing from sdcard's config.txt. Not too difficult at all, wonder why more cooks don't figure it out.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Noonski:
Because Earlier releases of RunCC from leaked roms did not except these commands.

I have just extracted a version of it from an official Rom and it's got the same version i was using before 1_0_9_0

So weird that it is now accepting it.

But looking back i did not use the addrun("RunExtra"

I did try the Run customer, and default tho.

(Slaps in his forehead)

But it's still not the same as i'm trying to offer here.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] l3v5y:
What you're trying to offer here is IMHO a far better solution! :)

Sorry for not getting you my tweaked package, though you seem to have managed without...

I think having a complete solution, with automated install of all cabs in a folder would be great. :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Noonski:
Well i also needed to Scour the new Roms for some updated OEMS and i needed to know for sure that welcomehead.192.png was named that way to add it to the process.

And maybe even a Copy User Preferred Manilla files from SD to device if present. There must be some other good ideas from people that like flashing, but are tired of installing their preferred skins, settings and Apps.

Unfortunately i found that the newer package of Connectionsetup asks for a reset where my previous VGA reskinned package did not.

All the Regs are te same (Except for two new unrelated ones).

I like the old non rebooting version better.

I know that a reboot isn't needed but i can see users unkowingly agree to that reboot. (But that's another subject)

I think i will change the package this weekend So it is only one method.

By default it is set to run at second boot, but it can easily be changed by the cook to run at first boot if that is the setup that one would prefer.

Also i'm still tinkering out the exact form of the XDA files.

But nice to hear i'm not on an island, l3v5y.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] l3v5y:
I think the "EXEC:" command waits for the process to close? If yes, then an application that runs some mortscripts could wait till all the mortscripts are run before continuing, so it can be run at first boot within RunCC. That saves the issue of an extra reboot...

Welcomehead.192.png is the file for VGA/WVGA devices, welcomehead.96.png is for QVGA devices, though it's actually set in the registry, so that could be checked at load time? (I'll find the registry key at some point...)

Something I've just thought of:

If there were a way for ROM cooks to block things that are known not to function or are included already, that would be quite useful. E.G. I include PIMBackup in ROMs, so why would anyone install an extra cab to do the same?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Noonski:
You could add a check for a specific .Cab name.

And if present change the extension.

Repeat and Rinse a few times.

Then at the end rename all .cabxx back to .cab

I think in general, not a lot of people change their cab names.

Unless like that previous post, someone likes to add numbers to them to control the order.

But in this Silent install method i can see that having one app being installed first could be useful as there's small pauses build into the script so the device isn't slow as hell the first minutes it boots.

I think it might get more error prone if it gets executed through RunCC.

With all the processes that get proccesed through the script.

It's using and starting, cusTSK.exe, TaskMgr.exe, wceload.exe and mortscript. But when Mortscript exitst it should be finished.

I would need to test this style to feel confident it doesn't reboot while there's still work in progress.

I Agree that getting it into the No Reboot style might be some extra work for cooks. And maybe i'm seeing this to much from my own perspective where i always remove and convert OEM configurations to straight forward packages.
