That is a known problem. It is explained in post #3 in Page One of this thread.

Note that bug only happens in the today screen. In any other screen/program, the windows button works. Again, cannot be fixed as it is a Palm programming problem.

building my dream wm os

hello i had a question i downloaded a kitchen (os builder) and i cant seem to get it to work ive made a dump of a rom and it says something about no oem found or no boot.gru could u tell me what i shuld download or how to fix this

and im trying to hack my lg xexon ik its hard but what can i do to make a program like a kitchen to make a wm os for the xexon thanks for any info u can give me
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] RatusNatus:
Rudy, we have to flash back to the latest oficial everytime that we want to change the SO.

Treo750_2_27_ROW_EN is the latest. Instructions on page 10 if you need it.

Allright mangatron. The Sim manager problem persists but i know that its not your problem since i installed the spanish rom and it also has the bug.

That rom is good but the entry screen is really ugly. besides has the bugs(sound) that you've fixed on your latest.

I'll keep testing this weekend. cya
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Lg xenon? This question should be asked in the "Development and Hacking" section of Xda-developers, sorry that I cannot help you here.

I think I know what could be the problem. The Sim Manager program has been updated to the newest version HTC had in Dec 2010. I believe it has support for the new features of the latest sim cards, or, maybe it does not.

Could you tell me some information about your type of Sim? Like, how much memory does it have? (For example, I use a 64k sim card for my wireless carrier) There are such things as 128k sim cards. Also, could you tell me the manufacture date of your sim card, the easiest way to tell is the Sim packet that held your sim card (it should be in small letters near the barcode), if you still have that packet it would be nice.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Rudy_Heartless:
thanks

thanks for the info now the Treo750_2_27_ROW_EN shuld help me?

everytime i make a dump to mess around with it says missing oem or missing a dsm file i got like 5 different dumps from different roms and same thing

ok update i downloaded it pluged in my palm treo 750 running mangatron`s rom and it tells me my palm treo is not a palm treo what shuld i do
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Updated the first post regarding bluetooth file sharing.

I think I understand your problem. It must be the kitchen you are using. Try using OSKitchen Zero, the link to it is either on my 3rd post in this thread or in Fjtorsol's thread.

You are trying to run Palm's exe updater file, right? Unfortunately, you cannot update that way, you will need to read my post in the previous page on how to flash the Palm ROM back onto your Treo, basically take the CHEEIMG_FW.nbh file and use my RUUWrapper.exe file to flash that instead of my custom ROM.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Rudy_Heartless:
thanks

ok thanks ill post back later if it works or not lol gtg to work now thanks again

plam treo 750 isnt on the list shuld i use palm treo pro as my device name
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Do not select a device. Instead, in that box, type "Palm Treo 750" and that folder will be created for you.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] RatusNatus:
Mangatron, thanks. I'll tell you later cuz the pack is at my work in Brasilia and i'm in Rio(1200km away) right now.

Its a 128k SIM. Its a paper pack. The sim has lots of numbers on it.

the numbers on sim:

8955

0460

0001

2461

6419

1211

thats it. I'll see the pack later. ty
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
I see, thanks for the details. So you have a 128k sim, do you remember if that SIM worked in Palm's WM6 ROM? If it worked in Palm's ROM, then your 128k sim might have stored Contacts in a different area than 64k sims, or it is an old method of accessing contacts.

If your sim works in Palm's ROMs, then I might push a ROM update with the older Sim Manager program to see if that works for you, okay?
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Rudy_Heartless:
do uk of a 6.5 rom i can use cuz the one i got is like 5 but says 6 i wanted one like the sliding today screen or like the one u used on this build and do uk of a way to make a today screen? i really want to make a whole new look for the wm os for palm
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Well there's not really a way you can using the sliding panels, at the moment it's not possible to have the sliding panels run at the same time with Palm's today plugins. The Power button won't work, and it's a bit frustrating without the Power button.

As for Windows Mobile 6.5.x files, this is a great place:

http://www.mobileunderground.info/showthread.php?t=444

I see there's a Build 29020, maybe that would be faster... :)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Rudy_Heartless:
thanks and the sliding today screen i was thinking of this and if its the same as wat u where thinking sorry lol

i downloaded the pic form a website
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Yeah, that's it. The sliding panels are called Titanium, and it is a today item that can only run on its own. Unfortunately, at this moment the Treo needs 2 Palm today items in order to have the Red Button power off the phone, and the 2 items do not work with Titanium.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Rudy_Heartless:
yea got one from that site and its wm 6 im still looking for 6.5 and the hermann whats that about lol sorry for the 100 questions
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Eh? The ones listed on the site are WM6.5. You might have imported it in the kitchen, but you need to select the Build Number.

I decided to name these series of Treo ROMs "Hermann" after I bought the CDMA version of HTC's Touch Pro, which is also code named Hermann. I learned a lot from the Touch Pro, and applied some of that to my Treo ROM's which ultimately led me to create the only ROM with a true power button, independant of Palm's today plugin's. Maybe I'll upload that in case anyone wants to experience it.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Rudy_Heartless:
lol ok yea ill try to download another one and good job on the working power button its abit annoying with the screen shutting of or hey im going to shut off ur radio signal instead lol i found some of my answer to putting wm on my lg xexon but i need a bluetooth laptop lol one day ill pick up the usb thing i was tould it will be slow but i wanna prove that i can get it on there and my building for my treo is just my warm up but i got another problem there isnt a os builder for my lg lol so idk what ill do lol
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Yeah, I wish all devices were as easy to cook roms for, like HTC devices.

And, not sure if 21889 users have noticed, but Bluetooth PAN internet sharing does not work. It's not exactly a bug, but I will fix that, which means it's back to build 21916.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] RatusNatus:
Mangatron, the sim manager worked before with your rom but simply stop working. It starts and close. I belive this problem its not related with your rom.

Can you fix the link to the consumer rom. i mean the normal, not finger version.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Ok, I'll see if I can upload in several hours or tomorrow (wireless carrier is unstable today)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] RatusNatus:
Not in a hurry. Its working fine.

At the weekend...
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Due to my wireless carrier still being unstable (they cut off my upload 3 times -__-), I was only able to upload the Consumer ROM of version 2.4. Do note that there is only 1 significant change, so if you are not bothered by the following, you don't have to update BASE versions:

Version 2.4

-Fixed the bug where Bluetooth PAN was not working in the Internet Sharing program. (Note: Hermann Finger Build 29007 does not have this bug)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
So, you guys might have heard Microsoft My Phone and Marketplace will no longer be supporting Windows Mobile, so the next release will remove those from the Consumer Rom.

Be sure to back up stuff that you do with those two services!
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] RatusNatus:
2.4 is working great here. ty

About that, how can i save the intall file from the marketplace.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
I honestly don't know how to save stuff from the Marketplace, but there was an old method back in the WM2003 days. You see, after Marketplace downloads an application, it installs it. But sometimes you'll need to tell it where to install, and it's this point where you can go to your Temp folder (I think in \Windows\app mgr or something similar) and copy the .Cab file from there. But I don't use Marketplace so if you can search your device for large files, you might see that Cab somewhere.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] RatusNatus:
I already installed a lot of stuff here. i need a hard reset anyway. next time i'll keep the cab.

I'll try thanks.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Rudy_Heartless:
hey been a while i seemed to have broke my phone shocker i made a rom didnt work well and so i tried to put ur rom back on my phone and is says error (270) update error the image file is corrupted. please check ur update utility how can i fix lol u prob wont but if you can text me how to fix number is 973-610-4730 its fine if u dont i just might not get to ur how to fix this for a bit thanks if u can help
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Hmm, that's a... rather unique problem. All I can give you right now is the attachment, which has helped me when I bricked my phone when trying to flash the SPL. Hope it works for you.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
Why can't I edit your rom in Fjtor's kitchen? It gave an error: 'Can't extract files or build packages from XIP structure.'
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
As far as I can tell, there is no kitchen that can extract Custom ROMs, they were only programmed to extract the OEM ROMs due to the unique nature of the way they are structured.

If you would like to build your own ROMs using my packages, reply here and I'll upload the packages as soon as I can.

Actually, I was supposed to upload those long ago. I will upload them as soon as I can (no later than Wednesday next week).
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
I see. It would be very nice if you could do that. There is no need to hurry.

I really like your base rom 2.3. It is fast and stable. Maybe even faster than the original 2.27 row.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Kitchen packs uploaded

Okay guys, the kitchen files related to my ROM has been uploaded. Due to the instability of my connection, I could not upload a required file in the "Big Storage" pack (I got cut off mid-upload of these packs), so

remember

that you need Fjtorsol's kitchen because you will need to get the "Temporary OS.nb" file from the "WM61" profile in the kitchen, and copy that into the BigStorage folder.

Some information regarding my packs:

-Remember that you will need to use the Big Storage profile in the kitchen only with the OEM Drivers pack that I uploaded. For example, you cannot use the Big Storage profile with Fjtorsol's "OEMDrivers" selected. This is due to different drivers.

-In the EXT package I uploaded, there's two folders in there that begin with "BT__", these are for better bluetooth functionality.

-Due to SIM card problems that I have been experiencing, I have left the old SIM related programs in the "OEMApps" folder. When choosing EXT packages, remember to disable "SIM Mgr v6.72.0.0", "STK Service v4.93.0.1", and "STK UIPPC v4.71.0.0".
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
Thanks for uploading the files. I'll give it a try tomorrow.

An other question, when I use keyguard my keypad is blocked. The thing is, when I press the red button, the screen reappear like normal saying 'press the middle button to unlock'. But the problem is that my screen isn't locked. I can touch 'start' for instance with keyguard on. Is there a solution for that problem?
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Oh, I forgot to mention that. Actually, many parts of the screen can still be accessed, like that battery bar, time, any today plugins, etc.

Unfortunately, I cannot pinpoint the problem other than the Palm Keyguard being too old for WM6.5. I'm trying to remember if this problem was in WM6 as well, but I just flashed a test build to my Treo, so I'm not sure about that.

I had a thought that maybe Keyguard is clashing with the default WM6.5 lock screen...
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
Oke, I no longer use keyguard. Now I just use the lock from HTC itself.

I just cooked my own rom. It's nice. Is it possible to get 4 icons instead of 3?
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Oh, that is an OS level modification. That is dependant on a file in the WM build, maybe I will upload that this Friday/Saturday. I was so used to it I kinda forgot it was another modification I did.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
And a very good one too! Thanks for sharing those files.

Did you choose the 'disable security warnings' option in the kitchen? I've got some problems with my battery saying 'change the battery to prevent losing information' but my battery is at 80% or so. If you did not, I will cook a rom with this option enabled to see if it helps.

About keyguard, it fully works under windows mobile 6.0 2.27ROW. I just tested it.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Sorry for the delay, those weekend internet problems happened again, so rather than make my life miserable, I decided to wait till Monday morning (GMT +8). So, the Start Menu 4-row Grid icons settings has been uploaded, which has been attached to the first post in this thread. Instructions for use are listed inside. Enjoy, and happy cooking!

What build are you using? My kitchen has that "disable security warnings" selected, and I know I've been having battery problems, and the worst I get is the percentage going completely 0%, yet the phone operates as if it's still full. But that's mostly because I hacked my battery, so it's probably not related.

By the way, there is a set warning command being displayed by the phone that is controlled by the Palm battery bar. Remove the settings where BatteryBar auto-shuts off the phone if percentage is too low, and maybe that will work for you.

I now know why I never reported this. I've never been a fan of Keyguard, so for WM6.5 I always turned it off, but when I need to, I manually activate it (by pressing option + Power.), and this is the function that works. Do this little test: set Keyguard to activate when you power off the phone, and then press the Red button to power off, and then when you turn the phone on again, keyguard will activate, but the screen is still active.

Now, disable Keyguard, and then on the today screen, manually activate Keyguard, and when you turn the phone off, and then turn it back on, you will see it really did lock the screen.

My explanation is that, when the phone powers off with Keyguard enabled, Windows Mobile services go to standby mode too fast for the Keyguard to activate, so when you turn on the phone, it activates, but the screen is already displayed by then.

By manually activating Keyguard, we tell the program to lock our screen, and then the program tells Windows Mobile to go to standby. This means that Keyguard is activated before power off. Funny, isn't it?
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
Strange thing, your monday morning is my sunday evening.

I understand your internet problem. Thanks for the upload. I'll try to cook my rom tomorrow, or from your point of view today :confused:

I'm using your 2.3 base right now. I think the problem is my battery. It isn't the original Palm battery. About the 'BatteryBar auto-shuts off the phone if percentage is too low' setting, where should I find this in the menu?

Keyguard is indeed working fine if you manually activate it. It's a funny thing, windows. Sometimes you just have to work around a problem to solve it. But it is now working like a charm, keyguard.

Can you tell me what the use is of the 'Rec Mode' in the kitchen? I don't really see the point of it. I'm quit new to the windows mobile society. And really new to cooking my own roms. :)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
I'm in GMT +8 (Hong Kong/Singapore time) :)

You actually have to install a registry editor and go to "HKLM\\Software\Palm\BatteryIndicator" and change the appropriate setting.

I'm not really sure myself, but I think it has a lot to do with how the files are cooked into the ROM during the building phase. There are a few HTC packages that needed to be rec modded, in order for them to work, and that's as far as I have bothered with it.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
I see...

I tried to cook a rom with the 21916 build but I can't get it stable. It bugs on all sides (I've no idea whether you can say that or not in English :) )

How do you do that? Cooking a stable rom....
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Well it took a lot of testing and both of my Treo's to make it work. When I first got a rom to boot on my Treo, I was so happy.

Have you tried using the build included with Fjtorsol's kitchen? You could just load a project from there and see how it looks to get an idea on how builds would look for the Treo, it would be a good start with that. And then compare your 21916 build with that one, and work from there.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
Yes, I did. But what I don't understand is the device profile. What is the difference between your big storage and the WM6.0/6.1

And some of the sys packages are marked as useless by oskitchen but you can't cook without them? Like SQL CE Mobile.

Is it oke if I use WM builds from here for my palm?

I'm glad you're still an 'active' developer. Otherwise it would have been much more difficult. Thanks.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Well it took a lot of testing and both of my Treo's to make it work. When I first got a rom to boot on my Treo, I was so happy (even though the ROM was badly made, like no working Camera, no storage card, etc).

[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
When do you release the 2.5 Release Candidate? :P
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Well, if my connection is good, it could be today (Mon Sept 5, GMT +8. It is 10:36 right now), if no good today then tommorrow morning.

And the big surprise, the ultimate WM6.1 ROM will be included. With 29MB RAM available, I may make that my ROM of choice.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
Good job!

Can't wait to see them coming.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Version 2.5 BASE roms uploaded

So, here we go, Version 2.5, probably the best ROM to ever be flashed onto a Treo 750. I know I said 2.4 was FINAL, but the past month I got a little more in touch with my Treo and I have once again accomplished what none has done before: Adding TouchFlo to the WM6.1 ROMs. I always had high respect for the Chinese ROMs, as in my opinion they were the best ROMs I have seen... until mine, since not even they had put TouchFlo on a Treo before. I have also done another first for the Treo750, adding in a splash animation on bootup. (No RAM degradation for either of those features)

But first, let's get acquainted with Version 2.5.

-The Ringtone Plugin is a menu option to add music files as a ringtone. For example, if you downloaded a ringtone online, just use File Explorer to browse to its location, and then hold-tap it and you will see a context menu option "add as ringtone". Cool, ja?

-HTC's TouchFlo. This is a program they used for their TOUCH series of phones, that would allow WM6.1 to scroll through lists by using your finger the same way you do with WM6.5. This may be your first time using TouchFlo, so you will need to get used to how it works, as tapping may need some changes from your usual tapping methods.

-Advanced Configuration was added, as it will help you get used to my new features. For example, using Advance Config, you can change the splash animation to a similar sized one of your own. Or, if you're still not used to TouchFlo, you can enable/disable it here, as well as edit the pressure sensitivity.

-SMS Threading options have been added, in case you don't like chat-style SMS messages, or in case you want it in WM6.1. The best way to use it is to exit the program in the feature you want it on. For example, WM6.1 is not threaded by default. When you open the Threading Options, it may say it's threaded, but I had better results changing it first to "classic", press done, and then open the program again, select "Threaded", press done and then restart.

-Forgot to mention that I have added a cool function to the ROM when you connect it to Windows Mobile Device Center, there is a link for Treo750 Support to this thread here. I think I accidentally didn't add this feature in WM6.5 though...

DON'T FORGET to read the entire release post, as there's some new info around there.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
Nice improvements!

I will flash it to my treo this evening. I hope my battery problem is solved too in the 6.1 :p
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
Hmm, I don't seem to see any problems with my battery. Hope it works for you.

Oh, and I should mention I have discovered Keyguard's problem. Keyguard is fully supported only in Build's 19xxx and lower. I tried to use WM6.1 Build 19212, and while Keyguard fully locked the screen, I decided against it because a number of other additions were incompatible with it. Note that the SIP symbol (the dot or arrow that appears beside the keyboard icon) also has this behavior. I can guess that there is something wrong with the module allocation or the GWES standby settings, which unfortunately would only be fixed with a program update, but since Palm is no more... :(
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] libal:
you can use IGO 8

I used it with my treo and gps antena.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
So it works with my ROM? That would be nice, that's through Bluetooth right? The Version 2.5 WM6.1 ROM presumebly has much more profiles available than listed in the WM6.5 ROM :)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] libal:
I'm not sure with what rom I used

only with one rom, I think one of the 6.5 ,I had problem with the bluetooth . The others roms 6.1 and 6.5 worked fine.

The problem was, as i said with the bluetooth conection.

I'm not using the treo anymore....
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] Samueldw:
The 6.1 rom is really nice. Also the advanced options. But I have still my battery problem :(

Strange thing is that I don't have this problem in the original 6.0. I don't even know if there is such a 'prevent losing blablabla' message in 6.0.

Nice work about keyguard. It's good to know why it isn't working ;)

Maybe this weekend I will try your 6.5 rom.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] chule250:
hey einsteinecker. i know everyone says i should try them. but i need to ask. wich rom do you use? 6.5 or 6.1? thanks for the great work! greatings from Argentina.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] einsteinecker:
It is your choice, actually. I'll list the differences:

WM6.5:

-Windows marketplace

-Looks newer

- .Net Framework 3.5

WM6.1:

-Finger scrolling like WM6.5

- .Net Framework 3.5

-More RAM (29MB)

-More Storage (74MB)

-Faster

-Better program compatibility

Personally, I like and use WM6.1 :)
