Collapse Thread

General conscensus was to collapse the thread. I have adjusted the title to be more indicative of the help required.

Ankush, which kitchen are you using to cook your ROM - Ervius, OnDraster, etc.?

In response to:

touchscreen is not functioning properly???? Please be more specific tell us what happend exactly to your touch screen.

Did you omit any drivers or registry entries in OEM? Reads like you may have or there may be a compatibility issue ... see next response.

From where???? you can get the latest pkgs from the XDA developers.. using the search option like.... "latest camera QVGA"

Some camera package may not be compatible with the device or the version of OEM drivers. See next response.

OEM Drivers??? for elfin??? you can get them dumping a stock rom this is basic from setting the kitchen i told you that your OEM drivers folder is poor dunno why.

To elaborate; many chefs will track down an original ("official") HTC release ROM and extract it using a kitchen. They will then take this kitchen, make a copy of it for archive purposes, and start altering the kitchen.

Have a look at the Shipped ROM thread to see if you can locate the drivers you mention below.

This is a good question for begginers

There's a few thread on this already; have a look at the Tips And Tricks from Mr. Makk.

Action button stops working??? you need to be specific cause some OLD wm6 (your dumped base rom) apps are incompatible with 6.5

As above, it likely a driver issue. Also note that some device (ex: AT&T Fuze) have a proprietary KEYBOARD.DLL compiled specifically for the device. This may result in certain buttons not functioning with newer SYS and/or drivers from a similar device that doesn't have the same buttons.

The rom is laghing a lot... well that is just experience. you will se when you add and delte old things will see that the rom will be better.

You may need to increase the PagePool size. You'll need to some searching as different devices need different sizes - it's specific to RAM and processor.

HTH,
[Windows Mobile] onlyankush_s:
new questions look at the first post.....;
[Windows Mobile] + Que PPC:
mmm interesting

1.- 3.14 maybe or maybe not is a hybrid... some are 3.07 and some are other ported OEM folders to ELFIN... i know that some of them works ok with elfin, like.... mmmm OPAL OEM drivers (some of them not all)

2 & 3.- As you may red on the tutorial I said that the EXT pkgs must have categorized.. something like

EXT

-ELFIN

--23658

--COMMON

---Conectivity

----Commanager_2.0_HTC_Mega

----Connection Setup_3.2_Opal

---Images

----OS images

----Red theme 6.5.X

----Red theme 6.5

---Reg tweaks

----Performance

----Asharsunny_touchresponse

----Regional_settings

be sure your new added EXT PKGS applications are well categorized ;)

Remember too.. that every EXT pkg needs or sometings has as a default the files app.dat and app.reg... I will update the tutorial for other langs to explain this two files function for noobs, but if you search you can have many tutorials lost there in the forums by amesh... hilaireg... and many awsome members.

5.- the SDautorun is an enhaced function into the normal or RUNCC app... the SD autorun allows you to install apps onfirst boot via cab in your storage card...

The SD autorun needs a line in the config.txt that must be in the normalOEM pkg for autorun, mmmm something like...

LOCK:Enabled

EXEC:\Windows\SetHSDPA.exe /Enable

CAB: \Windows\Certs.cab

CAB: \Windows\SMSFIX.cab

CAB: \Windows\btfix.cab

Hide:Enabled

LOCK:Disabled

EXEC:\Windows\SDAutoRun.exe

THIS ;)

@onlyankush_s

Not to offend you but most of the questions you are asking here are already answered on the board.

Cooking a rom is asking some action from you too. A lot of reading, trying, flashing, tweaking etc.

About the 3.14 base you are talking about you could try asking the people who are cooking with it.

I don't think Chef Central is created to dump questions but it's a place to help each other out if you realy don't know what to do anymore.

Just my 2 cents and good luck with cooking.

[Windows Mobile] ai6908:
+1...i agree with you completely...search, flash, and read...it will take many trial and error before you find the correct combo!
[Windows Mobile] onlyankush_s:
No offence but Ya i know that, and i am not a fool that i will simply ask questions and not search it before.

About OEM3.14 drivers, i ask many cooks i dont want to name them but it seems one of them lost it, one of them modified it in his kitchen and some of them are not replying. Thats why i asked it over here.

And about SDAutorun, i saw the tutorial but nowhere it is mentioned that i have to add it in oem pkgs and edit config.txt

which i know now as our fellow member +Que PPC told it to me.
[Windows Mobile] onlyankush_s:
but i categorized ext only then also but other applications which i am trying by as EXT pkgs like g-alarm, regedit, arkswitch are working!!!!

hey thanks for the sdautorun tut i will work on it.
[Windows Mobile] Laurentius26:
Sorry friend but it's obvious to me you didn't read at all.

If you ask questions why Album and Audiomanager not showing that's just a simple initflash edit which you can find in the sticky here at Chef Central.

And about Sdautorun offcourse that is explained on the board as well a simple search will give you answers.

@Ankush:

The original intention of Chef Central was to help beginner/aspiring chefs who felt overwhelmed by the task of chef'ing their own kitchen.

That said, most seasoned chefs have no issues providing guidance and assistance providing of course, that you have have taken the time to search the forum. There is a wealth of information available and often times, there is a thread that already provides insight into a particular problem that you may be experiencing.

Most seasoned chefs started off by cooking a ROM for their device using what was officially released by HTC. For example, I first started off with WM6.1 for my Raphael (as that is what was shipped by HTC) using Ervius PkgToolsBuildOS. When I was comfortable with this, I moved to Ervius Visual Kitchen; and then proceeded to inject WM 6.5.x to the kitchen. You have no idea how many times I re-read the Porting Tutorial - a lot! :)

It is important to provide as much detail as you can when posting about a problem you are experiencing. I also suggest contacting some of your fellow Elfin chefs as I am certain they would be more than happy to help as well - keep in mind that this is a hobby for most folks and that questions may go unanswered for a long time. Additionally, manufacturers, vendors, and operators aren't really keen on what we do so other than the tutorials and information you find on forums such as these ... you're going to have to learn by trial-and-error.

Lastly, as I believe that threads in Chef Central should remain open to help on an ongoing basis, I also feel that it is the responsibility of the OP to eventually mark their thread as [SOLVED] ... hence my initial recommendation that each problem be a single thread. I also feel that you, as an aspiring chef, must take the time to research before posting about an issue you are having.

[Windows Mobile] onlyankush_s:
okay i got it. thank you everyone.

Hi guys,

My HTC Polaris / TC is getting very shabby (looks) and technically a bit "steam powered" for a lot of new swanky UI's etc...

While I like all the new UI's/iPhones / iPads etc - on this device I'd rather go for stability and efficient OS, versus animated clocks and desktops etc.

Can someone confirm for me - is doing all this cool UI stuff etc on what is actually a rather old phone these days, basically "overwhleming" the hardware - i.e is it using more HW resource to run the cool stuff, versus the original / clean WM6.1 / 6.5?
[Touch Cruise General] faredino:
Hi,

in reply to your message...

I think best rom for polaris is 3LIT3 ROM.

I'm currently using the version VIII (8°) of 3LIT3 FULL (ITA)

and onestly it is not bad at all...

...but in my personal opinion,

"the best" ROM (in terms of responsivness, global usability of the phone)

(I keeped for more than 6 months),

is the 3LIT3 ROM version V (5°)...

and you can have different versions of 3LIT3 too...

(one is called CLEAN, another NAKED (means essential)

another one is COMPLETE and mine is FULL)

The sad thing is that currently on the xda forum

it is not very easy to find old version of 3LIT3 ROMs

but I can share my version V (but it is a FULL ITA, not WWE)

or you can post a request...someone else here will help for sure!

Good Luck
[Touch Cruise General] cdrugo:
For me Megan is another good rom , and caravalho too.. did you try those?

Best radio never tried 1.59.44.02, like you use.
[Touch Cruise General] thormdac:
being an old speed from from the early artemis section, i strongly advise you to dump the stock rom once you start thinking about speed!!!

i just received my p3650 with stock rom on it and i thought "holy cow, if that is what the improvements over my old p3300 are all about, i am gonna dump this p3650 right away!"

well, good to see old habbits stay...so i went about fiddling with them various roms from the polar section and i am currently sticking with 3LIT3...not dumping the p3650 :)

[Desire General] Dazza247guv:
up until 2 weeks ago my Desire was working perfectly. In the mean time I have travelled from the UK to Greece where I disabled the data roaming (I mention this as this is the only thing that has changed in the settings). On returning to the UK I now cannot download any new apps, or update any existing ones from the Android Market.

All that happens is I get a graphic which shows the commencement of the download, no progress bar movement and not actual download, irrespective of how long I leave the download going.

I have tried on wi-fi and over 3G, no luck.

When I switch the phone on I get an error message stating that it cannot verify the google talk account - which may be connected to the problem, however I cannot find any setting or app in the phone which has anything to do with the google talk app. The HTC desire online guide tells me how to access the 'talk' app, but following the very simple instructions does not reveal the app on the phone.

Just flash the .zip from recovery.

I swear the people telling people to 'search first' and 'read the rules' are actually generating more spam on these forums than people who just use forums like they were designed for; free, open speech.

If reading peoples' posts upset you so much, maybe you should just buy a copy of PC Weekly and stay off the forums. :cool:

Hi All

i've managed to update few lines of code in android.policy.jar. As you propably know the vanilla stock locksreen is broken this way :

for fixed stock lockscreen flash update_vanilla.zip

for vanilla rotary lockscreen flash update_rotary.zip

Vanilla rotary :

Vanilla stock :

Instructions :

1. boot phone into recovery (instructions here )

2. rename HTC lockscreen :

adb shell
mount /system
mv /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app/HtcLockScreen.bak
exit

3. copy update to sdcard

adb shell mount /sdcard
adb push update_rotary.zip /sdcard

or

adb push update_vanilla.zip /sdcard

4. apply update zip

5. reboot the phone

first boot will take little longer due to odexing apps.

Note : If you are using the vanilla lock screen then you must set your alarm in android’s clock application (or a 3rd party app) and not in HTC’s if you want to be able to turn it off in the morning.

Issues/bugs : HTC alarm clock, won't work on odexed ROM (stock, or MCR r2) do not even try it on these ROMs you will most propably get endless loop.

Remember that if you use this guide, you do so entirely at your own risk!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] juberg:
works great, thanks mate
[Desire Themes and Apps] MasDroid:
Thanks for this, I will try it out later :)

I had some problems trying this on my phone via another method (as you probably know ;)) lol.
[Desire Themes and Apps] zeebee:
I'm bit of a newbie in these things. What is an odexed ROM? I am using MCR r3, will this work for me?

Regards,

zeebee
[Desire Themes and Apps] The Professor:
Awesome! Will it use whatever wallpaper you're using on the phone, or the one shown above?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MasDroid:
When i tried this and had the "broken" lockscreen, it was the default wallpaper showing that i had set.
[Desire Themes and Apps] JupiterDroid:
works beautifully;))))

love the stock;)

JD:)
[Desire Themes and Apps] mardox:
the first pick of the broken lockscreen contains some sort of skinned sense ui, where did you get that?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MasDroid:
I think that is an older pic taken from HTC Hero and not the Desire.

EDIT: Looks like its not working for me on MCR R1 ROM, always appears to have the broken lockscreen... I will try another custom ROM instead.
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
Are you sure it's MCR r1? Look for *.odex files in /system/framework. If they're present you have stock Rom.
[Desire Themes and Apps] MasDroid:
Pretty sure mate, i have installed the initial release of Paul's MCR R1 ROM. When i last checked for .odex files in /system/framework, it did show htclockscreen.odex, no htclockscreen.apk shown in /system/app.

I will try another custom ROM (propably BraveSoul v1.6/7) later tonight (if possibble because my bandwidth is crap right now - ISP problems :() and it should work fine.
[Desire Themes and Apps] orgasmatrond:
There's supposed an .apk-file for this to work, and not an .odex-file, am I right?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MasDroid:
if there's no htclockscreen.apk in /system/app then its most likely that you are running a ROM with an odexed apps folder. Try it again on a different ROM (not stock of MCR R2 ROMs). i'm using Pays BraveSoul v1.7 ROM and it it not broken although the background of the lockscreen is transparent.
[Desire Themes and Apps] radomir11:
Work with MCR r3 ???
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
yes it will work.
[Desire Themes and Apps] PaulW21781:
Any chance for a version which will work on the stock-rom based root? (Modaco r1 method)

Cheers :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] H00pyFr00d:
Anyone else experiencing a thin line across the screen?

Also, is there a way to flash the normal Android clock so we don't need to use HTC world clock?
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
No without reflashing modified stock rom.
[Desire Themes and Apps] H00pyFr00d:
Just seen it's also present in the screenshot. Shame. The haptic feedback is always a bit much on the left+right lock screen.
[Desire Themes and Apps] PaulW21781:
I'll see what I can do then :)

As I take it, the fact /system/framework contains both .jar and .odex is why... Do the .odex files need to be somewhere else??

Bah...
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
I will check what I can do with that.
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
The jar and apk files need to be de-odexed (in /system/framework and /system/app folders), then you have to replace android.policy.jar from update file. optionaly you can again odex ROM to have stock ROM ;-)
[Desire Themes and Apps] ganjbass:
Can any one explain me pls afer i boot to recovery form where i rename HTC lockscreen???

Afte rename i have to switch on the phone copy the file to sd???

And then again power off...boot to recovery ??? And the second code (adb shell mount /sdcard adb push update_rotary.zip /sdcard ) where type?

And after update the zip from sd?

If use the rotate and no vanilla will be able to use htcclock and morning turn off?

Thanks
[Desire Themes and Apps] RiotRick:
I don't seem to have the stock clock app on my desire. The clock app just starts the htc clock app. Can I get the stock app somewhere?
[Desire Themes and Apps] The Professor:
Deskclock will access Android's clock rather than HTC's. Give that a shot.
[Desire Themes and Apps] nachtschicht:
Wow, this works great, thank you!

Any chance we might see informations on lockscreen like missed calls, SMS and other stuff?
[Desire Themes and Apps] RiotRick:
Deskclock seems to be replaced by the htc clock as well. I think i'm just gonna delete that and stick the stock clock app in.
[Desire Themes and Apps] pina_:
doesn't this lockscreen show that? That's a shame!
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
I don't know how you guys but I can see the missed calls and sms.

[Desire Themes and Apps] AndrewMe:
working fine on MCR 3.1. Thanks a lot!

Any chance to make the same locking during incoming call?

Now they are different..
[Desire Themes and Apps] vanja:
Directly on the lock screen or the status bar?

+1 Been tickering with it for few days but without any success...
[Desire Themes and Apps] AndrewMe:
was wrong.. it works only for lockscreen.. :(

incoming call - is a half of a problem.. during the alarm - there is no alarm screen, no possibility to snooze or to switch off..

deinstalling..
[Desire Themes and Apps] vanja:
Of course it is. Because you are using HTC Deskclock which is integrated to Htc lock screen. It's been mentioned many, many times already. Use other alarm clock app.
[Desire Themes and Apps] AndrewMe:
didn't find full vanilla lockscreen - may be, if to install the full lockscreen, the update will function as well..

very good looking, i would like to have it on my Desire..
[Desire Themes and Apps] pina_:
Will the lockscreen be semi-transparent or will there be a background behind it?
[Desire Themes and Apps] robbiekhan:
Going by information posted earlier am I right then in thinking that if I've flashed MCR 3.1 and I want to make use of the Alarm snooze/etc on the lock screen I need to install the stock alarm app? I use Kaloer Clock clock which I find better anyway though so maybe it's not going to be an issue for me.

What MIGHT be an issue though is missed call notifications on the lock screen itself or will this be fine since I can view them on the status bar anyway?
[Desire Themes and Apps] AndrewMe:
well, situation ist quite the opposite:

-Lockscreen works fine on 3.1 ONLY during NORMAL wake up

-during incoming call the stock lockscreen of Desire is shown - for me there is no sense in that case,

-but what much more worse - the STOCK alarm cannot be controlled AT ALL while vanilla lockscreen is installed. The solution for this issue could be right the way of installing the 3d party alarm clock..

So, if I understand you correctly, it could be fine for you.. Make a try..
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
hi

1st -> thats how it should works.

2nd -> has nothing to do with the lockscreen! the call screen is controled by phone.apk!

3rd -> Have you even read 1st post ? "Note : If you are using the vanilla lock screen then you must set your alarm in android’s clock application (or a 3rd party app) and not in HTC’s if you want to be able to turn it off in the morning. Issues/bugs : HTC alarm clock"
[Desire Themes and Apps] vanja:
I might be pushing it, but can we get froyo lockscreen? I know it is virtually the same, but slide to vibrate instead of slide to silent makes it appealing enough, don't you think? :D
[Desire Themes and Apps] RiotRick:
Would be great if this could be modified to a stock screen as well. What happens if you switch out the phone.apk for a stock one? What else will be modified by that?
[Desire Themes and Apps] kubino99:
If you can get sources from HTC it shouldn't be hard change, otherwise it's almost imposible.... looooooot of smali code ;-)
