[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Ive allways set mine up directly in kitchen. Simply by creating the necessary folder and then adding in the app.dat and app.reg file. Remember that the app.dat file needs to be saved in a certain format.

To make life easier for my self I copy one of the existing ones and simply edit them. You can also copy custom files into the rom by adding a file directory. Then in the app.dat file use the directory commands to copy the files in to the rom.

Hope to see a rom from you soon :)

My goal has allways been to kick start the development of 6.5 as loads of developers have moved to android! I had allways fancied seeing loads of new roms for 6.5 based on my kitchen :D So far there has been three that I know of!!!! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Hey just tested and your right. Got the same error when trying to install a hot fix. It is something to do with security, a bit of an obsecure reason I know but I will look into it. I have never had to test hotfixes before, assumed all the latest ones came with the leo 3.14 base image that I use.

Leave it with me. Might be able to get arround it!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] foxone:
Here's the HTC Peep hotfix as ext-package..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Im not sure there is a way arround installing hotfixes after a custom rom is cooked, but can we simply add the hotfixes in to the rom before cooking?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osiedacz:
Thanks guys. I'm not sure what other chefs have done. I know that on the other 3 roms I've used based on the 3.14 that I don't have to install the fix after. So they must have either cooked in the package, or replaced the old files with the new ones.

On the HTC page, this is the only hotfix for the HD2 that came out after the 3.14 roms.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] palokm:
Today I tried to do a rom, and I became such a thing in the bootloader I wrote that I have rom 2.13 instead of 3.14 ... why is this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
That is fine. I used the nk.exe from tmous 2.13 to make the rom tmous compatable and fix the 51mb internal storage issue. You should expect to see that! Sorry should have said in main page.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Guys new version available, fixed peep logon issue. Simply include the peep hotfix supplied. Thanks to osiedacz and foxone for helping me fix this!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] palokm:
even such a thing does not work to me, my location, what am I doing wrong
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Can you tell me more about what is happening? What are you trying to do with my location? Error messages etc.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] palokm:
My position is still the weather settings for applications that are intended for display weather
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Weather is working fine for me. Can you get a screen shot of the error message?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] palokm:
I do not know the data error message, because there is no ... add the splash screen with the weather widget and it wants me, my position or my position and there is not adjusted during

Hey Ghost, I was cooking with v5.5 last night and I find that the Twitter hotfix isn't working right when I cook it with the ext in the kitchen. I still had to apply that CAB afterwards. Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Thats odd, I have no way of testing as I dont have a twitter account. I will include the cab as an optional extra in the main page as there is no point in releasing a new kitchen for it! Cheers :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osiedacz:
Thanks a lot. I will continue to research and test some different methods and if I hit on a winner, I'll let you know. Maybe some wandering cooks might see this and give us some input too.:D This thread is a little more active them many others in the ROM area.

I have done some work on the xml files for 2021 but haven't been able to sort all the issues yet. I personally use sense 2018 as it is much more stable!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Internesting.

I setup a twitter account and tried logging on with my phone. I simply have the hotfix and not the cab. It let me log on with out any issues very weird!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osiedacz:
That is strange. I cooked up two different ROMs last night with the twitter hotfix and neither worked for me. I'll try and sort my issue out tonight, I'm sure it's just me or something I am doing!:p
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
Me Gusta :)

I have finally flashed today and I like a lot :) but I think I have some problems with internal storage as it shows only 52 MB of internal storage free.

I have downgraded to SPL-2.08.HSPL, then flashed the 23569. I tried to get out of all the things I dont use, so I have unmarked ...

in SYS package:

entertainment, OneNote, skyMarket, Themes, Welcome center, windows live, windows live IM, WMWidgets, autoupdate, IRDA, sample music, wwan

in EXT package:

everything regarding footprints, facebook, GPScopilot, IMEtutorial, JetCetPrint, NaviPanel, teeter, MS My Phone, MSFacebook, XDA UC

I have also unmarked CHT with the intention to add it later by cab, and also added a couple of manila mod (custom slider icons & custom Internet tab) just to test how it works (great!)

In advanced tweaks i add a welcome screen picture (not working), patch manila CFC compress, splash screen.

Thanks in advance for any help
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osiedacz:
New update, this is now working fine. Must have been something I was doing with the sequence of events, but now it is fine. Thank you for the hotfix in the kitchen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osiedacz:
Hey Poy, how large is your ROM file when you get done cooking it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
This is a known issue. Try using my version 5.5 kitchen. I had that issue as well. I changed the nk.exe from leo 3.14 rom to tmous 2.13 and this seems to have resolved the issue. Now getting 217mb free storage and 291mb free program memory in my euro device!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
exactly 347.158 KB

mmmm I would say i am using 5.5, I downloaded 1st/Aug 15:44 and About says osKitchen zero 1.33.5
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osiedacz:
347 is pretty big. In fact it is about 150 mb bigger than the one I built. You might just be using up all of the space? Also, do you have any cabs in your ROM that eventually end up in the Program Files section? If so, remember that all of those files will use up double space if they are in the ROM. They will eat the ROM space where they display in "Windows" and they use the space they end up in the program files folder. I found that a program as simple as Bing, even though it was only 5Mb worth of files, ends up using 10 Mb of space once it installs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
i did only add whip2snap & JMLMenuSense. What about the OS version 23568 should not be 23569? i am checking again the building log but cannot see anything wrong :/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
getting better :D the clue was XPR compression. Thanks NRGZ28 Now RUU_Signed_0409.nbh is 191.735Kb, free storage 192.28MB and free program 297.37MB :)

Thanks a lot GhostX and Osiedacz. Now I will try to cook CHT & CHTtweaks

me gusta!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Ah, I normaly use LZX compression. I thought it seemed a bit better than XPR. Were you using any compression before?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
Nop. No compression ... next flash will try LZX then :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MarkDenver:
Much props sir. You made coming from Android development pretty easy for me and I thank you. And yes LZX seems to be the compression to use.

I have add BsBtweaks & TorchButton to the kitchend and get out of the programs I dont use like FB, GoogleMaps, WMlive, messenger, etc. Then I add CHT2.0 (and all the pack: CHTeditor, languageR3, CHTtweaks, widgets, etc) as cab and all is working fine fast and stable.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Looks amazing, you sould defnitly upload that!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
Hi guys thanks for the cumpliments. The RSS widget is not cooked, just installed as separate cab. Is not included in the rom, you can get it here: CHTwRSS_fullconfig2.cab.

I have no cooked any widget yet. In fact this is my first approach to OSkitchen or any other rom kitchen, so i am going very slowly trying to learn every step. My idea is to get a very personal rom without many applications I dont use like FB, Windows Live, messenger, twitter, google maps, MS myPhone, and others. And also to add all related with Co0kie Home Tab (where I live!) and rest of Sense, as separate cabs by now. So thank you GhostX for give the opportunity to easily personalize your rom. By my side I will try to help as much as i can -and share here- cooking widgets in your rom :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] palokm:
POY and what if you put your rom here, let him know how further to actually rom, we may find that yours is cool
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
New version now available. Now you can set both the home screen and start menu backgrounds! Just create a png file and replace the extisting one in the files folder! Also removed MS my phone & market place as these are no longer used!

Hello GhostXSeries,

thanks for your kitchens.

Where is but the link to the current kitchen, I find nothing in the first post.:mad:

3 minutes to upload! I found just after I uploaded it that there was a problem with the build! It seemed to get corupted and deleted all the app.reg files! I had to restore from backup and then update :( New version shortly!

Hola amigo, I am still engaged to 6.0.0. Sorry for the noob question but, do I have to re-do all my custom mods for the new version? can i use the EXT packages somehow? :o

Yes, just download the new version and copy the ext packages from the new version accross into your current one!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
Hi GhostX, thanks again for sharing your kitchen. Its great to customize the rom and adapt it to my own needs. I am using now 6.0.1 as lite as possible, without all the app I dont use -but normally included in other roms: FB, twitter, Windows Live, Footprints, JetCePrinter, Google Maps, and others. I have added In Call Reccording and some manila mods (using 2018), and all CHT2.0 pack i am installing later by cabs. Also added WM Graphic Distortion Fix,

any option to try 29022?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] palokm:
Google Translate

POY, you can give your rom to test?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Do you have a link to the incall recording? I'll add it to the next kitchen build!

Also I am looking for the reg key that changes the default language. Did you ever find it?

Do you mean OS 29022, is it 6.5 or 6.5.5. Ill see if I can downlaod and see what its like!

Did you get ther reg key for setting the default language. One of the users is wanting to change default from en-gb to en-us.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
not really. I do it manually in setting>system>regional setting, and with BsBtweaks for Sense language. Thats the most important for me as i use to live in the home tab ... :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
maybe on 16th :rolleyes:

*LOL* is not my idea to make roms for share, but of course I will upload anything you be interested from me. By now I am starting with the kitchen, and really is a lot of work! I am also available for GhostX and/or any other cooker to help with CHT2.0, CHTtweaks, manila mods, etc to be included in their roms.

Wil test over next couple of days and report back!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
One thing I am trying to do is to cook endkey as part of the rom. This is a brilliant little app that repaces the long send with lots of features.

I converted the cab to an ext package, copied the reg keys from my leo and then cooked the rom. Weird thing is it does work but brings up a black screen, but if you press the screen the buttons do work. Here is a link to the orgional thread. I would really like to cook this as part of the rom but completly stuck!

I've noticed that this rom seems to be missing the option to link contacts to the facebook accounts. I've uploaded a picture to show what I mean. In the All Contacts page, there is usually a tab that shows you all the suggested facbook/contact links. I use this to put their facebook profile picture as their contact picture. At the moment I have to go into each contact separately and link them that way. Does anyone know how to get this tab back?

I using 23569 and sense version 2021.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] poyensa:
This is working for me: HKCU\MUI\CurLang=1034 (Spanish)

Also this

HKCU\Software\HTC\manila\Locale=en-GB (maybe changing to en-US)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
I had to manually edit sense 2021 to allow facebook access. There was none at all! I will have a look for you, looks as if I've missed something in the xml files someware :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] yeoldgreat1:
It seems to be able to access facebook, you can link contacts to their facebook page individually but it won't let you do them in one go as before. Also, I've told it to use facebook profile photos as contact pictures, the facebook logo shows up in the corner but it doesn't seem to want to download the actual picture :s

I'll have a look at my settings and see if it's something I've done.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Yea, I had to do a lot of work to get facebook enabled in sense 2021. I did manage to get it to interact with facebook and as you say go into the contact select facebook and download the fb pic. This was successfull on my device, but I had to edit a lot of the .xml files to even do that.

Sense 2021 is not stable by any means, I personally use sense 2018!

I found it in the REG file for the Operator Package. The OP Package in your kitchen is of course from the WWE Eurpoe ROM. So the version of English is from GB. I looked at the same file for the TMOUS and found all the keys for EN-US. It also sets the currency and time to match. When I get home tonight, I'll upload the two different REG files to compare. I just put a modified version of the TMOUS one later in my kitchen and it worked just great to get me into the US out of the box. Thanks guys.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Glad we could help :) Nice to know my kitchen is compatable with a tmous device. Only having a Euro device it is hard to test! Let me know what you come up with in terms of reg keys compatable for tmous devices and I can add them into the next build!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] osiedacz:
Actually, I dont' have a TMOUS device. I have the Australian version of the EU phone.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
Hello to everyone! I've been watching this forum quite closely for the last past months and I see many changes had been made. GhostX thanks for all your hard work and input !!!

Well, first of all sorry for being away for such a long time; but I've been quite busy lately and did not have much time to stay on the internet and try cooking new HD2 ROMs. However, I have to mention how well and professionally compiled together is the GHOSTX's kitchen. He has done a very good job, and even today I am on the same ROM for more than four (4) months now. :eek: :D

I am still using the kitchen and ROM dated back in April. I haven't flashed my phone since end of April - honestly.

I did however make some customization to my needs. Here are a few examples:

-- Cookie Home Tab 2.0 with predifined settings;

-- Prearranged Menu Icons (done through initialflashfiles.dat);

-- Built-In programs such as Total Commander, PIM BackUP;

-- Built-In ENDKEY program (sorry for not posting earlier GhostX, but I have the fix for the black screen already months ago :o I will have it shared shortly);

-- Customized indicating icons to Android style;

-- Customized black dialer (not fully implemented, there is still some redrawing to be done);

-- Slightly changed HTC Dialer to support Face Down Speaker Auto Mode;

-- Built-In Manilla Today Page to support Today Plugins such as TodayAgenda;

-- Built-In Android style Lock Screen;

-- and some other things that I forgot about.

I am tempted to try the latest kitchen version, but everytime I am being stopped by the stability of my current ROM.

I'll post a few pictures of my ROM as well as the EXT packages for the above mentioned add-ons little later folks.

Good luck to everyone! ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
How well does the In-Call Recording works? What version of the dialer do you have? I am not sure if the mod you are using is the same I have used, but what I know is that this registry mod did not work for me. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Hey man, your rom sounds interesting. What issues are you having with the latest build. Most of the things you have added in your build, I have set to standard version.

I would be interested to know more about your black dialer and face down speaker mode!

Oh, I did get endkey working for my self. I had exported all the reg keys successfully but I forgot to extract the contents of the default.zip file opps!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
New version being uploaded, with in the next couple of hours :) Added PPCPimBackup. Great utility for backing up contacts etc to sd caard, as far as I can see it is freeware, if not let me know and I will remove!

Added option to set time to 24 hour on first boot!

Added option to set owner information on first boot!

Fixed start menu links - games folder icon not correct!

Tweaked other settings :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] GuzuGuzu:
I haven't tried the new kitchen, if to be honest. I have just downloaded and will give it a try over the week-end.

Yes, I see that now. I will take a look closer to what else is there and will post my suggestion that I already use. :)

There is nothing special. It has a nice black keypad and during a call, if you face down the phone on a flat surface, the Speaker turns On automatically. It is usefull when a bunch of people are in a room and you would like to have a conference call, and also quite handy when you driving a car and have no time to press Speaker button.

I had no doubt that you will manage this. Cheers!

And, I'll try to post some pics and the EXT packages tomorrow, as I don't have internet access at home any longer. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
If you could PM me the details you have on your dialer I would be really interested to see what mods you have done! You should think of releasing a build for people to download sounds awsome man!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
New version just uploaded :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
Oh would anybody be willing to make a short video on compiling a rom? I dont have the ability to do so.

Edit I have made a very basic video but no sound! Link on first page, just trying to figure out, how to show the video instead of just a link.
