Worked!!! Thank you man. That was one of the biggest things bugging me about the Hero ROM but and the timezone fix wasn't what i wanted (my calender and emails were off).

Now just to fix the camera button back to the camera button instead of search.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] averma:
Ya I tried this app a few times, it seems to work at first but it always seems to bugg out and revert back to the wrong time stamps. (running My Hero 1.1.3)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] okctmaxxer:
yeah but what if it timestamps it with the wrong year? mine shows today as 7/7/16
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] travissand:
So I tried this fix. It did not work for me. Im in Hawaii and my incoming sms are 1 hour off. If I change my time zone one hour in one way it makes no difference then further that way and its 2 hours off. But if I go the other way it is 2 hours off.

My phone is a Sprint branded TP2 it was like this when using this phone on sprint network and also when using my straight talk sim card in it. I think the networks think we participate in the daylight savings thing. Well we dont. Our time never changes. It seems to be correct during the winter months.

So my cousin found a white G1 in school and decided he's going to keep it. Can T-mobile lock the phone if he switches the old person's SIM card and puts his own in?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
Technically yes they can. They can lock the IMEI number, but the question is will they do it (i doubt it). One of my old wizards got stolen and asked them if they could lock it and they said they would not.

but hey keep it. Finders keepers losers weepers right.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alleviate:
Yea exactly, cause when i got my G1 they registered the SIM card to my phone using the IMEI number. So idk if the kid that lost his phone is gonna call them and yea. But should he just go ahead set up the phone to his gmail account?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
I would.///

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicelad_uk:
Ok, so I've got the issue with the Album thumbnails like most people it seems and out of curiosity, I wondered how many other people actually have the issue...?

Please answer the above honestly and lets see if we can get some actual numbers and send this to HTC, there is deffo something wrong with this is everyone is having an issue.

If you're not using the stock SD card and you don't have an issue, post on here and let us know, would be good to hear!

For those of you who don't know, its the slowness of loading your pics in the album which should be instand after intially loading as thumbnails are created, or not in our case!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZenorGR:
I would add another option on the poll:

Yes, but used to have the problem(using a card bigger than 2GB)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicelad_uk:
Yeah, I did try but I can't edit the poll :(

Is PPCGeeks down for you guys too? Seems for the last 48 hours, it's either database issues, server capacity issues, or just straight up not loading up.

PLEASE HELP ME!!!! i bought this phone did factory reset and now i have no signal and the phone is stuck at the activation screen because i bought it from someone and not tmo they wont exchange it for me and im trying to figure out what i can do to make this work? i have no idea about any of the system info because like i said cant get into the setting tab....i had taken it to a shop they opened it up and couldnt find anything wrong with the insides so im guessing its a software problem. if anyone has any ideas i would LOVE to hear them.....im rather computer literate and have been trying different things including some of the recovery, system and radio images from here http://developer.htc.com/adp.html to no avail....can anyone help me get my g1 working so i dont have to use my POS nokia?

Dumb question but is your phone in an area where you have a signal? Also does your sim work that you put in the phone?

yes ive put my card in my dads g1 no problems put his card in mine....same thing im having trouble his....its the phone not the coverage i can garuntee you that
[G1 General] beerhooligan:
same thing im having trouble with*
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
Since you did a factory reset lets try something different. Load up the DREAIMG.nbh (RC29) file and see if it does the same thing.
[G1 General] beerhooligan:
tried that it loaded....still doing the same thing....had to try a few times but it finally loaded up....the webpage i posted i tried several different versions they have up but every time it came up and said something along the lines of invalid signature then (xx files) then gave me the same prompt of alt w alt s alt l home back to reboot.....thought maybe there was something there....not sure......
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
Well it sounds like you tryin to load it in recovery menu. You need to load it in bootloader (cam and power).
[G1 General] beerhooligan:
i thought the bootloader only read the nbh files on the sd? and not the update.zip am i mistaken? because if i dont have one on there it will just wipe out what i do have on it now correct?
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
The RC29 file is the .nbh file. So if you downloaded the RC29 and it's in a .zip file you need to unzip that. RC29 should not be loaded as an update.zip.
[G1 General] beerhooligan:
sorry my misunderstanding i have already loaded the rc file pretty sure it was 30 im not trying to root though im just trying to figure out if its software related or hardware related im pretty sure its software just having a problem figuring out what piece of software because i reloaded the rc file and now im trying to update the radio and that jazz and not having any luck....do you have a link for a stable rc29?? i wouldnt mind rooting it after i figure this problem out i downloaded a few but they would fail every time thats why i went with 30

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] daxy:
I’ve started cooking my own ROM’s only a week ago. I wanted to share my experiences here as it’s not as easy as it seems :) Well, with the right settings, tools, references, etc it makes it easier though. So this is my sharing back to the community, my tutorial/reference guide on how to cook a ROM.

The result of my days of hard work is named DaxyROM and can be found here.

If you want to start cooking, be prepared to read a lot and spent a lot of time trying your home cooked meals. But when it boots and works as expected, you’ll enjoy all the time spent.

There are 3 steps I’d like to discuss in the following 3 posts:

1)	Basic ROM extraction and cooking

2)	Adding / Removing programs

3)	Upgrading your XIP/SYS (aka install new OS version)

First of all get to know what you’re dealing with. Understand what SYS/EXT/OEM/ROM/XIP is ‘cause at the end of the week you can’t think of anything else. Good source here.

1 Basic ROM extraction and cooking

I’ll be using the Ervius Visual Kitchen and the official WM6.5 ROM from HTC to start with.

* Download Ervius Visual Kitchen. Always use the latest version.

* Download WM6.5 ROM’s from HTC

* Download CustomRUU.exe

Preparing the kitchen:

Extract Visual Kitchen (VK) to C:\Kitchen (will be refered to as Kitchen now)

Create a directory in the Kitchen named RomDump

Open the WM6.5 HTC ROM .exe file with Winzip

Extract the file named RUU_signed.nbh to the RomDump directory

Now open the Kitchen (erviuskitchen.exe). Ignore the warning messages

Click on the bottom left button named “Dump nbh/nb/payload”

Open the RUU_signed.nbh file and wait till it’s completed.

Enter the Kitchen\RomDump\dump directory

Move all files to Kitchen directory

There seems to be an issue with kitchen_build_rom.bat while building your ROM.

Modify your kitchen_build_rom.bat file from this:

set DSM_TEMPLATE=%dsm%
set DSM_INCLUDES=*

REM **************** TOOLS\platformrebuilder.exe
if not "%errorlevel%"=="0" goto error

To this:

set DSM_TEMPLATE=%dsm%
set DSM_INCLUDES=*

REM **************** TOOLS\platformrebuilder.exe
REM **************** if not "%errorlevel%"=="0" goto error

You’re now ready to go.

Built your first ROM – The Visual Kitchen Basics:

Click on the pull-down menu next to RHODIUM and select RHODIUM

Ignore the messages. You’ll see the screen building now

Fill in the name of your ROM at the ROM ver. Field

Check the “Real WM 6.5 AKU” field

Click on the “Other” button

Change the –PP value from 6 to 18 and click on the Close button

Save the settings: hit the “Save ROM” button. Filename must end with extension .erv.

You’re ready to hit the Create ROM button

Wait till it finishes

Now open the Kitchen\RELEASE_Rhodium directory

Copy the CustomRUU.exe to this directory and run it

You’re now running the HTC WM 6.5 ROM rebuilded by yourself

Right now your kitchen is ready to use and you can modify it as much as you like.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] frenchie746:
Eventually I may try cooking my own ROM.

Not because I can't find any good roms out there.

But just for the simple fact that I want to learn how to do it.

Thanks for taking the time to write this all up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sleonard:
Just what I was looking for. I have been searching and reading and searching and reading but not getting anywhere. After following your post I've dissasembled a ROM, renamed it, and then reassembled it.

Now I was just following a recipe and didn't understand everything that happened (what is the -PP value and why am I changing it?) but I'm finally making some progress. Looking forward to your upcoming posts.

BTW, I just used the official TMo US 6.1 ROM that CDGuider dumped and made available. It'll do while I'm learning but I'm really waiting for the Official TMo US 6.5 to be released so I can use it as the main ingredient.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] daxy:
Let me know if I missed something. I had to do it from the top of my head so if I forgot to add an action, let me know and I'll add it.

PS, the -PP allows you to change the PagePool size (sort of swapfile for WM).

Some people set it to 0, some to 12-18. I found 18 to be working fine. I must admit that I have too little knowledge to truly understand the PP stuff to come to a clear correct value (I believe it's questionable, the values).

If anyone disagrees, let me know :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] dazkeirle:
This is a great post.

I've updated Post 2: Adding / Removing programs

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ai6908:
Customized ROMs are protected. You cant dump them. You can only dump official ROMs.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] joshkoss:
Correct! even if the customized rom was unprotected you still would not be able to rebuild a rom off of it because of the loss of rgu's and dsm's in the origional building process. would be very difficult.. best thing to do is ask for the kitchen files from the chef and hope they can share. :)

edit: one thing you can do is use an app called rom imaged editor and open the nbh with that, you can grab individual files out, even protected roms you can.. then you can add things on your own.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] daxy:
I've changed the topic to My first Rhodium ROM. Though it would sound better.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ai6908:
I have extracted files from kooked roms no biggie. saves time from flashing for sure...:)

I have tried to extract all files from kooked rom too, and it seems to work. but might be able to use some dll files.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] hchavarria:
Everytime I build the ROM (rebuilding the stock rom, not config changes) towards the end the kitchen gives me a runtime error, I have tried on a 64-bit vista and 32-bit XP.

After reviewing the log it appears that the problem is:

Executing: kitchen_build_rom.bat.....

ERROR! (errorlevel: 1)

ERROR executing: kitchen_build_rom.bat

ERROR!!!

Wait some seconds...

No ''SVN'' folders present...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ai6908:
Which official ROM did you dump?

Make sure you got this code in your kitchen_build.bat
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] variosteph:
have a look at which package it stops.

for the german t-mobile one it was LTB_resource1_....

i don´t remember the whole name.

exclude it and the rebuilding will work fine.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] daxy:
Now I remember what I forgot!!! Thanks for the info.

Modify your kitchen_build_rom.bat file from this:

Code:

set DSM_TEMPLATE=%dsm%
set DSM_INCLUDES=*

REM **************** TOOLS\platformrebuilder.exe
if not "%errorlevel%"=="0" goto error

To this:

Code:

set DSM_TEMPLATE=%dsm%
set DSM_INCLUDES=*

REM **************** TOOLS\platformrebuilder.exe
REM **************** if not "%errorlevel%"=="0" goto error

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] daxy:
Post 3 has been updated. The tutorial is now completed :)

Let me know what you think of it!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] emwdava:
I'm almost there, thanks to Daxy.

I sat up to 4 in the morning getting my kitchen ready. The only question I have so far is when I tried to update to a new xip/sys is that I could only change Sys in ervious kitchen to the new version (23071) but not xip. xip only had the versionnumber from the official rom (21xxx). I went ahead and pressed create rom. It worked well. No error messages or so during Rom creation. But now I don't have the guts to flash it before I get my question answered. Should it have said 23071 in both xip and sys?

A great tutorial.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rgb-rgb:
If the 23071 was not showing up in the xip version box, I would guess it is bacause you may not have created the folder for the OEMxipkernel in the kitchen.

Under the ROM\Rhodium folder, you should have a folder for 23071 there also. If you don't have it, you need to just create a folder named 23071 and then copy everthing in the old build folder 21xxx into the 23071 folder. What you should have in the folder is the OEMXipKernel. This folder doesn't change very often, and thats why you just copy it from an old build to the new build. It contains device specific information and is not normally part of the new builds that are posted.

If you don't ysue the new xip build number in the system, then you are not reallly getting the full benefit of the newer build.

Your ROM folder structure should look something like this.

ROM

....Rhodium

.........21849

..............OEMXipKernel

.........23071

..............OEMXipKernel

.........23081

..............OEMXipKernel

....Shared

.........21849

..............MSXIPKernel

.........23071

..............MSXIPKernel

.........23081

..............MSXIPKernel
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] emwdava:
Should I copy everything from ROM\Shared\21xxx to ROM\Shared\23071 aswell?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] hchavarria:
Should this work in Windows 7? I am getting missing dll file messages and also runtime messages. Is this best done using an XP machine?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rgb-rgb:
Do not copy the Shared folder. The Shared folder contains files from the new build. All you really want to copy is the folder that contains the OEMXipKernel

Here is a link to a tutorial I created for the Raphael. Maybe it will help you also. Everywhere you see Raphael in the guide, just substitute Rhodium instead.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] daxy:

It's added to the article now, thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Great thread! I've been fiddeling around with this project but I'm kinda stuck at the moment.

I want to create a WM6.1 ROM so I skip the step "Check the “Real WM 6.5 AKU” field".

As soon as I hit Create ROM all seems to run just fine until it gets stuck and gives the following dialog: "NBHUtil has stopped working".

The kitchen log shows this at the end:

I'm running Windows 7 and checked that I'm running the NBHUtils.exe file as Administrator and even compatibility modus is set to Windows XP SP3.

The EXE opens just fine if I start it right from the tools folder.

Any tips about this?
