Latest kitchen runs the new GTX2.5, no mirror effect & has the lovely analog clock :D I'd suggest updating the kitchen to the newest version. Beyond Compare or WinMerge are invaluable tools when looking copy various changes

I've had a report that removing the custom font from the kitchen resolves the issue... So all we need to do is actually replace those two fonts, "sorts.ttf" & "symbol.ttf", and we're good? Could you upload those for me, I'll cook them in next time and add the Droid Sans font back into the kitchen as optional ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] romanas2007:
Sorry, but which is the latest 23568 gtx lite release? Is the one in the old releases directory http://www.vbnfiles.com/xda/birkoffsjunk/Chucky/Old Releases/ChuckyROM-23568-Lite-GTX.May.05.sfx.exe OK to download? Or is another one going to be uploaded into the main directory. Thanks. Oh, and thank you so much for addressing the "greyish wallpaper" issue. Eager to try it out. Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] romanas2007:
Tried your May 5 23568 lite rom from the old releases directory. It's a beauty!!! The only problem is with the fonts, in my case for cyrillic characters. Had the system fonts from nrg's latest rom saved. Installed them and now all the characters seem ok. Oh, and what about the bg4all feature? Is there a way to set a custom wallpaper without ruining the rom? But even if there is now no solution available the refined gray screen looks fantastic. Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] romanas2007:
I have a problem with the 00-s on the clock. On a clean rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] romanas2007:
Another short remark. When the manila clock is switched to the 24-hour format the windows clock at the top remains in the 12-hour mode.

Hi,

Running the new ChuckyROM WWE GTX Lite May 5 ROM at the moment.

Everytime I start playing music it plays for a minute or two then it locks up.

Anyone else found this to be true?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gianton:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
Just tested this out my self, rarely ever used music, so haven't noticed this before... but yeah I can confirm this :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:

your rom looks very great!!!

I tried to install it, but when the installation is finished the phone chrashes at the white loadingscreen with the green "htc" -logo...

furthermore the red version info is not shown anymore...

can you tell me what to do, to install the rom correctly?

thanks =)

p.s.: I installed your uploaded "ChuckyROM-23116-Lite-GTX.May.05.sfx.exe"
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] romanas2007:
I really liked the May 5th rom. The problem that I had with the zero digits of the clock is described in the GTX theme section. What happens is when the clock has zero digits in the reading the 00 digits are displayed cut in half with only with only the upper half visible and a bit down in relation to the other part of the clock reading. I should have made a printscreen, but it was late yesterday and I had to switch back to another rom so that I could go to work. Anyways, they even had a fix for that but it would work for some reason.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
You need to run 576MB Enabled Radio, as stated in the first post... Upgrade your radio and you'll get past the bootscreen ;)

Ah! the stretching zero's... I've cooked in a fix... but it must not be perfect yet... :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] orcamarci:

I've been wondering if other fans has not experienced this problem. Probably, there're some magiс tricks to perform after the rom flash to avoid the glitch.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
Just a glitch with GTX, once there is a complete hotfix, I'll include it in the ROM. Have you changed the time format from the default at all?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisvor:
Dear Birkoff,

I have downloaded the latest kitchen (5/May), re-merged my changes into it (I didn't use any part of the old kitchen of yours, just copied my stuff into the new folders) and cooked my rom.

However, the clock is still with the mirror effect and the clock is the "thick black border" clock and not the slick "white with transparent bits" clock of GTX thread.

Could you tell me which files in the kitchen are related to the above to make sure that they are correctly set? Could you also please attach in your reply the correct files for the normal clock font and analog clock thing?

Many thanks again,

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] romanas2007:
Will be looking forward to the updated hotfix. I opened the time format setting screen you pointed to and everything seemed in order. Besides, I switched to the Russian regional setting at the very beginning. Based on my experience with other roms, after that the time format switches to the local mode automatically.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
Check to see if your replacing any of these files:

0b6f5c5e_manila
0d61c97c_manila
1cb13e6b_manila
2AA4530E_manila
31794a12_manila
6244FA3D_manila
77e0069a_manila

Try changing your time format to 12 Hrs (hh:mm) see if that helps in anyway

I presume you are referring to when you add a quick link to those within the manila home tab? For those, you just need to refresh the HTC icon cache.

Save the attached txt file to your device, rename it, "clear HTC icon cache.mscr", run it, restart manila, done :)

On ChuckyROM-21903-Lite-GTX.May.05.sfx.exe I cannot set the ringtone, every time i change it it goes back to "silent" and ringtipe "other" . The weird thing is that the phone rings with an unusual ringtone which is not loud enough. Phone profile is Normal ! Anyone else got this???

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisvor:
Some issues - probably my fault.....

Ok I hope I can describe this clearly:

I am using the 5/May kitchen, and cooking a 23568 rom.

My customizations involve mostly some apps that I like to cook in the rom, and my personal settings (email provisioning etc etc). I am not replacing any manila files.

Some info:

1. I have set the registry keys to enable landscape in Manila, and also the HTCSensor "whitelist" entry to enable the phone to go into landscape.

2. As I am in Cyprus (greek), my regional settings are set to GREECE, but my ROM is ENGLISH BASED (i.e. no greek in menus, etc).

3. I have cooked in Opera 10 using the downloadable package you provide in the first posts.

The issues I have are the following:

1. When I rotate the phone app and then back to portrait, the bottom part (where the KEYPAD is) disappears. It is NOT blank, it just does not refresh that part of the screen and therefore you can see there whatever was on the screen before the phone app was activated. If I turn my ppc landscape the phone turns landscape and the keypad APPEARS, and then if I go back to portrait, then the keypad IS THERE. So the problem starts if I start another application and then go back to the phone in portrait mode.

2. In Opera, the buttons/menus seem to be in Greek, but all the menu options and button are BLANK (i.e. the greek do not show) except for a few rare cases where I can actually read Greek. This is very strange as I would expect NOTHING to show in greek if there was a font issue.

Any ideas how to solve the above issues, by modifying something in the kitchen, and NOT by installing something AFTER the rom is flashed?

Thanks for any info guys, and Birkoff, again thanks for an awesome tool :)

Best regards,

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TheJakerz:
just installed ur ChuckyROM and it looks great !! :P

just updated my sig too xD

keep it up mon :p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisvor:
Ok. I made some changes which I think resolved the issues. It remains to be seen.

Things done (for reference)

1. Because on every upgrade of your kitchen, I create a new folder structure with the NEW kitchen as base, and then I copy over the folders I put *my* stuff in, from the old kitchen to the new, I had CHT 1.7.0 in there, which were carried over to the GTX2.5 installation which includes CHT 1.7.1. So that was the reason for the "mirrorred clock" issue I had before. As soon as I disabled the 1.7.0 all is well.

2. I now have a fully landscape-enabled sense, including the phone (just two glitches:

* if you are on the home tab and you want to use the phone, it pops back into portrait. A small movement of the device to portrait and then back to landscape, rotates the phone again, so its just inconvenient.

* while being in landscape, if you go to the photos and coverflow kicks in, it rotates a FURTHER 90 degrees, causing the display to be unusable. I hope somebody knows how to fix this.

3. The fonts issue, I resolved by copying a set of fonts from another thread, which mimic the NOKIA fonts. The whole device now looks EXCELLENT, the fonts are VERY slick and "clean", and it even shows FULL GREEK in all cases (messages, Opera menus, everything !)

So the above are posted for reference for other users, and also looking for any solution to #2 above.

Thanks and regards,

Chris

calendar tab issue

Dear Birkoff,

The attached picture is a snapshot of the calendar tab in "year" mode. This is my custom rom based on 23568 with GTX2.5. I have not touched any manila files, but I have replaced the tahoma and helvetica fonts with the "nokia look-a-like" fonts found in XDA.

Any idea how can this be fixed?

Once locked will not unlock and have to reset

hi guys i've noticed an issue putting the phone to standby,if i lock the phone and put it in stanby for a while the screen does not respond only the lights on the keyboard lightup when a hardware key is pressed (the screen stays black). this happens with not pattern and i have to reset the device. (both lock screens)

windows lockscreen

also when using the windows lockscreen moving the slider only turns it black and it gets stuck on the side i slid it to only to stay there and not unlock the phone again this happens in no pattern and have gone a while without it happening.

ps, cannot wait for a solution for the media player issue (music stops seconds after the phone goes into standby.

@ gianton thanks for the 4row start menu worked a treat,
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
Do you have both lockscreens enabled? (ie at the same time?) if so, disable one of them... if that doesn't help I'd suggest a hard reset and possible a task29/re-flash.

Is it the 23568 build? if so I'd recommend trying the 23116 one, 235xx will be prone to some issues as it's the latest beta, 231xx on the other hand is production stable.

Music player work around is to disable CHT Lockscreen and just use the default windows one. I'll include the fix as soon as one is available ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] audit angel:
i've made it a rule to run task29 every flash, your correct i am running 23568 :o ... im flashing 23116 now :)

ps only one lockscreen was enabled at a time.

going to flash now will report back later in the day :)

edit: also including windows live is not a bad idea as i sync contact and email from the service... just a thought :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
I personally don't use WLM, so I haven't cooked it into the ROM, but it is available in the kitchen should you wish to cook it in your self. Also I'm sure there is a cab around here somewhere... ;)

How can I cook my emails into the rom?

So I dont have to set it up.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisvor:
app.dat

Dear Birkoff,

I have been puzzled by this and thought I'd better ask the master :)

If I understand correctly, the files that we put in the "files" folder in each kitchen folder are initially copied into the \Windows folder of the device when we flash the ROM.

The APP.DAT file is then used to manipulate the file system (i.e. create folders, copy files around etc).

I noticed that when I put something like Directory("\Windows\Start Menu"):-File("Flashlight.lnk","\Windows\FlashlightLink.lnk"),

the original file still remains in the \Windows folder, thus creating duplicates and wasting valuable space on the device, especially if you cook in many applications.

Is there any way that we can "MOVE" files instead of "COPY" using the app.dat file?

Best regards,

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisvor:
Search on this forum for "OEMizer". It's a PC application that you can use to create the necessary provisioning XML files, that you then put in the kitchen under the OEM folder.

Rgrds,

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
Unfortunately no... extendir may help in that regard though.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisvor:
Is extendir included in the kitchen? if not, do you know if there is a PKG to include it somewhere?

EDIT 2: In the kitchen, when you cook for a specific release (e.g. 23569), do I need to have all releases ticked under the SYS and ROM folders, or just the release I'm cooking for?

EDIT: and can you please stop updating the kitchen everyday???? Just finished my custom rom with 5/May and there's an 8/May release ;-) (**JOKE**) **THANK YOU** for all your contributions to this community! I think HTC should sponsor XDA-Developers.com and they should pass part of this sponsorship to their chefs... Many people buy HTC just because there's the XDA community around !!!

Hi, Recently got my hd2 and saw this rom, beautifull, had to install it. well i have a tmobile USA 1024 MB Flash with 576MB RAM, and this rom works fine , i downloaded the "ChuckyROM-23569-Lite-GTX.May.08.sfx". Just one little problem i noticed right away, with the keyboard. the keyboard icon that at the bottom middle, doesnt have that little arrow next to it to change different keyboard styles (compact,full, phone keyboard, etc), although not a problem because i never change them, but this reflects with minimizing the keyboard. i like to minimize my keyboard when im done using it, so after i click the keyboard button to minimize it,the keyboard style choser menu pops up, that means i cant minimize it, now this only happens sometimes, maybe a special place i press,but it can annoy you, any fix to this??

So put the xml's in the OEM Folder?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisvor:
create a new subfolder under the OEM (preferably name it as "zzz" in the beginning (e.g. "zzzMyEmails"). and under that put the files that the OEMizer will create for you.

The reason for the zzz prefix is because the way the kitchen processes the folders to create the nbh file (rom file) is by alphabetical order of the folder names, so you'd want your "customization" to always come last, so that they override possible default configurations.

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osokrayzay:
Thank you sir!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] birkoffsjunk:
I have no cab for footprints sorry, there is the Tabtastic ROM or the Kitchen.

In all honestly the work required by extendir (to get the full benefit) is extensive, very much of the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" frame of mind here...

Yeah leave them ticked, vistang takes care of the rest ;) Although if you have no need for the other version just delete them from the ROM & SYS folders.

The irony here is I hate uploading new ROM/Kitchens everyday as well lol

I try my best not to upload new ROMs with just minor changes... with exception to bug fixes and the like. So no new Tabtastic ROM, as there would be very minor changes... a New SYS on the other hand :D
