EXTENDED ROM INDEXING SITE

there it is folks...after 2 days of hard work, my site is almost done
Im posting it now to get some feedback
dont mind the way it looks atm etc and downloads are disabled for now...
http://www.dmmh.nl/xda/files/
let me know what you think
btw, I still have to add around 450 files to the site, those arent indexed yet, but I wonder what people think about layout, way of sorting etc etc

there will also be a comments section for people who take the time to register and a simple rating system

looks like a great resource
Shouldn't 2002/2003/2003SE/2005 be an option?

nah, not many files for extended roms are operating system dependant, as far as I know
correct me, if I am terribly wrong

Nice job! Layout looks good with the filter system, although I think that some of the customisation cabs are dependent on OS, particularly for MMS. I may be wrong, but at least someone here can correct me!
Keep up the brilliant work!!

tbh, I aquired all of the files of the FTP, Im thinking about adding a upload form to the site where one can upload their extended rom and the file will land in a temporary folder which I access via ftp, verify and move to the real files directory.
Either this, or there has to be a better way of getting to know when a new extended rom is available for download. Maybe forums on the site will be usefull

file downloads working now...
file downloads are enabled
http://www.dmmh.nl/xda/
I am still working on the category sorting....its almost done...but returns wrong matches if more then one category is selected. All the other filter options are working.
TO DO LIST:
- member registration
- further extended comments section, leave comment for members
- develop 'suggest filter' (people who know the file may suggest the filters which apply) for members, gets aproved/ denied via admin control panel
- maybe forums
- rating system
sofar I have magician and blue angel files online, but a lot still needs the filtering applied

Good job bro, but my suggestion is to compress the cab files to rar, you'll gain more space

nice work....and a loooooot to do in the future,if u want to upload all the files :wink:
keep on man,i beleive ur site will become a gr8 station,where u can download everything concerning ext rom files
RAGO :lol:

there are already 1000 files on there...it would take a lot off time to compress them all manually or so

When arching with WinRAR 3.42> use "Put each file in separate archive" option in Files (Archive) Tab

mmm, I could do that...but I would have to re-index all the files I've already done

Thanks for your c00l project!
I'm voting for adding "WM2002/2003/2003SE/2005/ALL/.NET" option there...
And one thingy, why not to allow file storing directly to Category?
Perhaps putting "trusted sender" OR "not trusted" variable will solve the problem. So when a new member sends file a file's comment will indicate that this file is from "UNTRUSTED SOURCE AND MAY HAVE VIRUSES AND STUF...". But when you review the file yourself you change variable of sender to trusted one and all files he sent become trusted... and adding "DELETE THIS FILE (-1)" option to rating system will save your time on deciding whether the sender is trusted or untrusted...

uploading himalaya files now....****in loads of working, I had to use ER2003Edit to extract all files manually...better thank me on my knees!!!!!
any way to aquire Wallaby extended rom files? cant seem to extract them in a easy way.......

Wallaby doesn´t have a extended ROM. Only Adaption have been done via operator Config, which was included in the base rom. There are only a few CAB files in it.
If you get me a server i will upload complete set of operator config. If you don´t have one, i will take mine server and send you the link for downloading....
Stefan

mmm, ill see what I will do, thank you

I need more space
I have been offered webspace by one of the members here, which is awesome, but I like to keep using my host.
Due to the huge amount of files, it would cause to much delays to query for remote filenames and remote filesizes, causing very slow response times, rendering the site almost unusable
so, if anyone wants to see the Himalaya and Alpine files online...ever.....some donations would speed up the process

forum online
forum is online, but locked for the moment
registration for it is working, but you cant post anything/ view anything yet, as I am hacking the **** out of the CSS and .tpl files to make it all look like I want it to
tell me what you think

I like the layout for the forum.

[Help] Rom Kitchen, CAB install?

I am making an excellent rom for the Uni, i have integrated all i need but is there a way not to integrate it and have a cab install, like the auto customization after first boot...
that screen just installs cab files right? how do i set the rom to run cab files off the EXT_Rom automatically?
thanks

better yet, can i use the initflashfiles.txt to put files other then in \windows\...
i want to have a program installed by default but i want all the program files to be places in \Program Files\
Instead of \windows\

I will reply in a few minutes after i have banged my head against the wall a few times.

"why spend time learning when ignorance is instantanious?"
It defeats the object of having them in the ROM
as soon as you use initflashfiles to move a file it takes up room in the storage memory. make the lnk's link to the /windows/ dir instead

If you just cut straight to the last paragraph in the post above , he is right.
You are best trying to keep everything in \windows to prevent duplication of files as it copies rather than moves them over.

My fault i should have been more clear
I cant use the EXT-ROM as this program requires user input, so forget that idea.
now i have gotten the program to sit inside the \windows\ folder correctly but now i need 1 last step, i need to have a folder w/files inside transfered as well. Its a theme folder!
Example OEM folder:
program.exe
\Themes\
It copies the program and i use initflashfiles.txt to make a menu shortcut works fine ,but when building the ROM it freezes on the Theme folder. Ok so you cant have a folders w/subdir and files.
Now what should i do? i made OEM folder have all files inside but i need the themes folder to be XFER'd to \Windows\Themes\

or is there a solid command or a config file i can write to make adjustments to create/copy/move files and folders?

you know i have seen you react like this a few times on the forum, stop being so damn annoying to everyone here, really STOP. i asked a question and revised it as it was written bad, but EVEN as that you should learn how to talk to people.
do you have anything positive to bring to this thread ? if not just move along!

Easy guys, easy.... tempers often fray, it's not worth taking things personally

With my wisbar advance, i've got the theme on my sd card and I put the config.ini file with the settings in the oem. Hence WA in \windows, theme on sd card.
You cannot move things from rom to another directory, only copy them.

erm, i awnsered your question if you read my post, dumbass.

no really i saw it...
i am just telling you i don't care for you attitude that you dish out and to others as well. you could try being nicer...
ever do a search on your post and read how arrogant you are? you should try it. If thats your example of helping someone... you need to rethink things.
To be honest i was hoping someone of your caliber would come here and offer help, but that doesn't mean you get to talk to people as you like because you ..." Know More "
Its expected that you know more when we post "[Help]" in the title. That's correct we EXPECT someone with more knowledge to help, not abuse people.
Thanks.... NO really thanks for the help

I think grayme or MIDGET are more than nice, because it looks like U've never been working on ROM at first, at second YOU DIDNT use search button(that fuc.. button 9th on top) Im not a god like midged or helmi, but at least before u post something like this, try to read.Why mess this forum

I did search for the how to copy a folder w/files using the initflashfiles.txt as was not able to find any information, hence the post.
Helmi has nothing to do with this so don't throw his name around. And midget has run to this issue with a few users on this forum lately. Yea i read those too.
And i don't care if he can breathe underwater, fact is just because you answer somebody doesnt mean you get to talk to people like trash.

gotcha ya, i was hoping for a way around this as the only other issue i have is a *.rgu file which set a string in the CURRENT_USER area but for some reason it fails to build on that specific RGU which is the registration for wisbar.
besides that everything is working smooth
here is a preview of the default look which i helped a great skinning artist (Dingo) make into a great wisbar skin, the new version has sounds that are awesome
here is a preview,

Just FYI, MOST of my posts are helpful and 'nice'
I dont have to be here answering your q's so im sorry, but you have to expect an answer that reflects the mood im in atm... if you dont like it i wont answer your q's next time. it's nothing personal!

try 2 read 1st helmi kitchen wm6 post, there is explained ho 2 use initflashes if U use his kitchen if U use another try 2 read apropriate howtos. BTW dont use initflashes.dat if u can bypas it(it makes a copy from ROM to Storage - so there are files ocupiing both space in ROM and in Storage - redundant) btw there is package for wisbar for helmis kitchen

This is the point that, until I made a kitchen ROM, I wasn't aware of; did I (and 1wayjonny and others) miss it?
Ranting and raving at people that don't know what you do is not moving things forward, this isn't a simple, 'how I instal ROM?' (sic) question...

cooking help plz!

ive started cooking around a week and a half ago on my new rom series and im not understanding how to set up the auto customization that happids on a fresh flash or hard-reset ive researched for 2 days now and found formats and all that but can someone please explain what "config_operator.txt", config_PT.txt", "config_AP.txt" and "config.txt" do as they seem to be connected to each other and how to set them up with their corrisponing folders thank you!
~xNitrous~

okies first off make sure before you edit the config.txt file you set the properties to NOT read-only then edit the file as you like. put the cabs or .xmls you want in the rom into it and make sure they are signed and set to read only. then go back and save your config.txt and change the properties back to read-only. flash and be done. also search the hermes forum for answears about this since cooking for the hermes and kaiser are the same and there is TONS of info about cooking for the hermes since its been around longer

can you please tell me why they are in diffrent folders and labeled diffrently and linked tongether? or point me to a page that tell me. what is "operatorPKG", what is "OperatorPKG_PT" and why are these files in each one, does each represent something diffrent can you please explain it to me thank you

operatorpkg is the operator package, which in our case is htc, so it should contain stuff like themes,startup animations,backgrounds etc. as obviously windows mobile doesn't ship with this when it goes to htc.

Make it easy on youreself in the start and focuse only on: C:\kaiserkitchen\OEM\OperatorPKG & config_operator.txt
You can setup config_operator.txt to skip right to config.txt (just make sure the files in middle are not used)
Just add youre cabs, xml and stuff in config_operator.txt. When you get used to provxml and how this work you can dig real into this. One stands a bit out wich you will use more the others and thats mxipupdate_oemoperators_105.provxml
Play whit this and slowly you understand the diffrence and needs of mxipcold, mxipupdate & mxip
I think its important not to bite over to much in the start, you just gonna get confused. Small steps and take time to understand youre prossess and what you are actually doing RIGHT NOW then slowly you will get the big picture of how this connects.
Do some digging on provxml. I attached a wery nifty tool for you if you are not a speedracer on writing youre own xml`s. Use this to convert .reg or .rgu to proxml/xml`s. And download XML Notepad 2007 here. Its free and all you ever need.
Hope this was any help to you

missing file issue?

Since I can't post in the q & a forum I am posting here but mods feel free to move it. So I have a wm6.1 device and a Mac computer and I regularly send files, like cab and music files with out an issue. However, today I noticed that I send a music file like usual and the file is no where to be found on the devices however space about the same size as the file is being taken up. So I send another two files(one music and one cab file) with out an issue at all. Then later on I send a cab file, but I don't see it on the device even though space is being take up. This may have happened prior to this, but I didn't realize it or something. So how can A) regain that space by deleting those files not showing up, or B) find the files that are not showing up and use them as I intended to. I am loosing space because of this. Option of last(and I mean last) resort is a hard rest which I don't like to do. Thank you....

get a good file browser and search for the missing files. You may want to use a wild card search (*.cab,*.mp3)
if you still can not find them look in the folders in /Windows and /Temp or or equivalent on the device

well i am using total commader so I dunno how good that is or not. Not to mention I have done what you suggested and even searched for files added with in the last 3 days and nothing on all fronts but yet the sapce is being taken up by something that I can't seem to find on my device. Memory maid was no help either(granted I only did a clean up). But thank you.

have you tried using the default file explorer?

Want HTC Cruise COPILOT LIVE 7

Want HTC Cruise COPILOT LIVE 7 urgently,
because i got touch cruise from a guy. he has the Copilot card, he lost his disc. i need it very badly,
please help me.
thanks

hey if all of the map data is on the card then go to the folder called '2577' an then click on the wm6 install of copilot. Also if you take out and put in the card it should ask you to install copilot.
If those files arent there then ill post the cab file for copilot just let me know

thanks

GCC maps? if you means tha maps for co-pilot you will have to install them from the cd ill iso it up and upload it so you can get it. I asked them the co-pilot the question how to do this ill find the pdf they end me and attach it when i do the upload if thats the answer you want.

also may be a while as i have misplaced the cd so when i find it (hopefully soon) ill send it across

thanks
thanks mate,
will b needing ur disc.
very soon

Woo!
Your in luck and i have found the CD but its ~3GB so i dont know where i could upload it for you to get it is the only problem, maybe a torrent but i have no idea how to create one.
You got any ideas?

thanks
ok mate.
i think, u can download any torrent software, i use uTorrent
just google it, u can get it.
then put the 3gb onto a folder and zip it.
then open utorrent, then file => create new torrent.
its over.
send the file to me.
thanks

Heres the torrent for it and say when you have got it and i can remove the file

thank you very much
thank you very much,
but its not downloading.
i'll try some other methods.

really, someone is downloading it thought it was you
it is working just its slow

Hi Chris. I also need Co-Pilot 7. I have an HTC P3300 and want to install it on Windows Mobile 6. If you can't give, just give me a link from where I can download it.
Thanks
Talha

And Chris. How did you become a senior member? I also wnat to become a senior member from a junior one.
Thanks

I was seeding a torrent for it but on the grounds that the person that i was doing it for could connect i deleted it and then i deleted the iso and torrent file. As far as i know there is no other way to get it, also it was seeding at ~10 kbit/s so it was taking an age to upload for who ever was taking. So quite honestly i dont know where you will be able to get the app from now as the person before had hit a dead end finding it
Also to become a senior member you have to have over 100 post, you form junior member => member after ~20 so that means you have to be active in the forum.

OK. But very dishearted.
Thanks for your help.

I can upload the cd if anyone needs it, I am looking for Australia maps too, as I got a UK version!

Please. I need it. I can give you the Australia maps, too. But please upload it.
Thanks.
Talha

Willing to trade Australian Maps for CoPilot CD + England, Ireland and some Europe Maps which come with my version.
I have the License, but Its for the UK/Europe version, I will also trade my whole license for the Australian License. I have never used mine as It is for the UK version of Orbit 2, but im in Australia. CoPilot I have is valued at over $200+

I bought a second hand Kaiser which has the license card and the 2577 folder on the SD card, when I manually installed the CAB file from the folder it installed 100%. When I start copilot it says not installed properly, the programme runs but their is no map, no voices and when I click on "about" the programme just shuts down. Can anyone show me exactly what should be on the card for it to install and run properly.
Thankyou
