Removing file now...
... and eagerly awaiting for new Kitchen!

I'm trying this Kitchen and BuildOS and CreateROM are working without any errors (or at least I have no problems starting them)
However, without making any changes to the Kitchen, the ROM already doesn't fit in the image. When I run CreateROM, i see these lines:
.....a while bunch a files pass by.......
Processing "xls2pxl.dll" as file
Processing "xmeevtsnd.dll" as module
Processing "zlib.dll" as module
Processing "zoom.bmp" as file

Used Sectors : 159e1

Searching for IMGFS start... Found at 00660000
Fixing... Done!

Is it just me or are you also having these problems? Or should I maybe take away from some of the OEM packages?

Hi Gerard,
I've got a working kitchen but having problems uploading to Rapidshare.
See my previous post.
Come back to you later.

Went to http://vidmes.bur.st/Uni/Kitchens/midget_1990, its empty, there is no DEV_UNI.exe.
It is strange that it is not on Midgets FTP?

sorry, ive been so busy with roms recently ive neglected paid work and college work, i still ahvent slept since yesterday morning

First off having only had an XDA exec for a matter of weeks and only been playing around with creating roms for even less I have to say I am staggered by how good these kitchens are so compliments to all those who must have been involved.
The question I do have and I hope this doesn't sound too rich as a first post is why doesn't anyone seem to remove the .dsm and .rgu files as they build the roms. As far as I can see they take up a fair bit of space almost 2MB on some of the Helmi roms I've built and slow the system down by creating hundreds more files in the Windows folder to index.
Although I haven't yet got a working version of this kitchen I would have thought a CreateRom.bat of;
@echo off
copy ROM\nk.nb temp\nk.nb
cd temp
..\TOOLS\prepare_imgfs.exe nk.nb -nosplit
ECHO Next: Clean up files...
pause
del C:\DEV_UNI\Temp\dump\*.dsm
del C:\DEV_UNI\Temp\dump\*.rgu
ECHO Next: Build the rom...
pause
..\TOOLS\BuildImgfs.exe
..\TOOLS\make_imgfs.exe nk.nb -nosplit
del boot.hv
del boot.rgu
pause
would quite easily solve the problem and hopefully start a new trend for rom builders tidying up their images.
I've used the same thing on Helmi's kitchen and it seems to work well.

Don't know why my other thread is closed but here's the working kitchen.
Modified here and there by me
Took me a while to upload it.

**** sorry, closed the wrong one, its been a long 36 hours

36 hours
Haha, you need a good sleep
Is it possible to reopen?

already done

Oops! Looks like I need to half retract my previous statement as BuildOS.exe tidies up the .rgu files whereas the CreateOS.exe that I was previously using didn't. The question still remains about the .dsm files though. Is there any reason to leave them behind?

Thanks
Goodnight.

yes, i cba to explain right now, soneone else proabbly will but yes you should allways keep them.

OK thanks for the reply, I just couldn't see that they made any difference at that point in the build. Excellent effort, I look forward to playing with this kitchen and hope you enjoy your well deserved sleep.

how to create oem pack
well i want to know if i have a .cab file or a setup file for some application( lets say spb time)... how can i create a oem pack of the name, if i want to put it in my personalised rom.... is it possible... please help

Kitchens??? Why??

I love all you chefs but I can see who is using what kitchens based off the packages and the outcome of the Rom. Nothing against you guys or the guys who made the kitchens possible. Here is my dilema, I want to make a clean rom. To me a clean rom is one that has the apps I want without extra files, or extra reg keys. To do this I need actual cabs. Anyone know where i can get the actual cabs for such applications as ArcSoft 3.x or 4.x? Maybe even the latest intent MIDlet manager?

the problem with default.hv file, now it has many many many and many of apps registries , it is very difficult to looking for them and remove.
i have mms 4.x and the newest java but trying to delete the conflict registries in default.hv i can't

where did you get them?

can you post them in this thread or send me a pm as well

here you are
if there is anything missed on mms tell me, because i extracted it as quick as i can
java tested and worked (unless the registries, you have to apply them after flashing the rom, otherwise you can edit default.hv)

oh oh many wait for them, ok if you use them don't forget to write extracter name

NTS, there are no factory cabs for MMS, camera, etc. HTC jumbled the packages up so that the DRM registry settings are in the camera package and the streaming media registry settings are in the MMS package. Getting rid of extra reg. entries is a pain, but it's best done by analyzing the OEM packages and removing them. Also, installing these apps as cabs would eat up so much storage memory, it's really impractical to install them as such. Hence, the kitchen craze.

Hi NTS
I Honestly admire your work and here is some info you requested. I took this MMS 4.0 out of trinity rom and without making any change I just copied these two folder in SYS folder during rom cooking using pandora ROM Kitchen. .....And results were superb......and now we got working MMS 4.0 in 5.2.318 and 5.2.1413.

See, you all use kitchens, but im old school. nothing like hardwork to make it right. So, I use my own tools. Thats why I want just the needed files. I have what I like to call the perfect rom, but MMS was the issue. Now with these Java and MMS will correct the issues I have been having. Thanks.

just dumping everything into windows, I suppose. I'm curious if there's any file size / overall space savings / or performance gain using this vs what's already in the kitchen. (I'm not on my lt so I can't see my schtuff)

Cool. I like to try and keep all of the latest fixes and patches in one place and publically available. It's a pain in the arse to do, but I'd like to think it's helping the big picture...

Ok, the only issue i have with 4.x version of mms is that it replaces the Text Messages box and merges sms and mms into one folder. then you have to select new and select either sms or mms. Any way to fix this? Also, when you choose the option to try and setup the mms server it does not come up unless you are in a blank mms. hmm, more fun configs to figure out.

have fun (veel plezier hij loopt egt goed )

Hi Danny.
Downloaded and flashed this rom.
After 2 minutes "looking", I found a major problem:
I run the "Network Wizard", selected "Nederland, T-Mobile", and an error about the database showed up.
Now I can't configure any connection, so no GPRS to configure.
2 other thing I noticed:
1] Windows Live Messenger is still in WWE ?
2] No Office apps ?
The rest seems to be oke, but without a connection, there's not much fun with my Wizard.

This isn't the only Dutch TNT (1437) based ROM!
Check thread below....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334245&highlight=dutch
I use the original (English) so I can't tell you anything about this ROM. Since I can't find any replies about a 'GPRS problem' I guess this ROM is OK.
Good luck!

I think the main problem by useing the Microwave tool is it only copies the MUI's and doesn't edit the rgu's, cpl's, exe etc.. to work with the language. But if it was there before I started my translation it had saved me a lot of work.

Saving my work was the main goal of the microwave. Your words means that it would be really useful if completed and this is enough for me to go on with it. If you wish to share any knowledge about the translation topic, I would be glad to improve the Muiver for the community
Thanks in advance

Ah, this is one thing I don't mind having in the main memory, but I still have not installed it

Someone please share how to do this.. I've copied the .xml's to the /application data/home folder, but I'm not sure what to do with the rest. I'm able to select HTC for my home screen and it successfully changes, but nothing shows up as all of the other files are not in their correct places.

For those people that cant wait (like me). Copy all files in the CTHome folder to your windows directory on your sp. You then need to register the two dll files (htchome and htchomesp). You can register the files with wm5_regsvrce.exe. If you search there are many instructions on how to use this program.

aaroninoraa
can you export your reg keys about those 2 .dlls and share with us all files(.dll and .reg) so we can do it more easy?

I did this work.

Copy all files in the CTHome folder or HTCHome folder?

not a problem man. I realized that there were TONS of people on this forum that wanted to know how to do things like: "Put a program in the ROM" or "Use a Registry Tweak", so I've made it a drag-and-drop, completely automated process for beginners, while still using advanced tools for chefs like me

Yeah, this is great for starters. The command line kinda gets hard to get used to, but after a while its just like typing haha.

I was a little awkward with command prompts when I first started using KaiserKitchen, but if you use it enough it's 10x faster than a GUI, and it becomes second nature to you

Yeah, i'm used to it. Especially since i've used it so many times before. Well, i'm off to flash your rc16! xD

You need to pick a base first before you can extract anything from it. If I were you, I would use a very lite ROM as the base, so you learn how it works. But, I admire that you actually give it a shot. Good job, and I wish you luck.

Thanks I got a lot to learn.
I did grab the AT&T rom 6.1 and I was able to do the extraction 1,2,3 and everything seem to work. I just was checking out what it would do if I selected option 4 and I got the error I posted.
Question Does Option 5 populate the BASE folder?
EDIT: I got it Option 5 does populate the Base Folder for you.... Now it's time to roll up my selves and learn this stuff. ....

tinkering with it, during one step it popped up a text document that I had no idea what to do with. closed it and it gave an error, then went on as if nothing happened.

Haha. We don't want to brick our phones now Travito. [;

What is a good lite ROM to use for a Tilt/HTC. There is a lot of stuff in the AT&T 6.1 ROM. Man a lot of bloatware.

I would start with NARF's lite AT&T ROM. Just my 2 cents.
