Get the real HTC Wings homescreen for your Tornado - HTC Tornado

After googling around for some days, I didn't find any information about to get the real HTC Wings homescreen on a Tornado, therefore i started this thread with the request for some help.
After few hours we got an install file from the user SGregory to get a nice HTC like feeling in our Tornados.
Requirements:
WM 6 Standard

Thanks

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.

Patience my friend Phil said he's on the job. You'll probably have the homescreen in good time before x-mas

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?

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

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.

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.
http://rapidshare.com/files/31305034/DEV_UNI.rar.html
**** 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.

Cooking for dummies (noobs)

Very helpful...thanks

Thanks for putting this together! I could have used it last night at 3am! This is great stuff for a rookie cooker (like myself).
I just used it to cook up a rom from your Version 8.1 318 WM6. Flawless!
Ian
I didn't see any tools for if someone wants to take an already cooked ROM (the nk.nbf) and then cook from that. Just a heads up you might want to add something telling everyone how to do that.

57MB is the final compressed size of the OS (aka nk.nbf). As long as your Dump folder is under 80MB (81MB if you really push it), you're safe. If you don't mind some trial and error, you can just keep on adding packages until the *.nb builder gets an error.

thanks, i think it´s the htc touch stuff that needs so much space, i will try to leave autoupdate and catalog and see how much space i will get.

I am right there with you. There are some amazing roms that I just love beyond words, but would love to take out a few things like Windows Live, and instead add the few apps I consider essential...and being a pain in the @ss to the original rom developer just to cater to my needs is not what I am into.
Thanks to theloon for this tutorial...if at some point you feel bored and would care to release an updated tutorial describing how to do this using an already cooked rom that we'd like to tweak a bit...well I'd sure appreciate it.
EDIT**
Found this thread...however, if someone who knows what the hell they are talking about could create a pictured tutorial supplementing these steps, I would be so happy, I'd name a soon to be born kitten after you (and give you the cat too...hint hint...really I mean it, I got kittens for a good home)...I am still stuck on stupid when it comes to making OEM packages and stuff though.

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.

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.

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.

"Open Market":the new market for free softwares

Good day all
while I am surfing the internet I have found this software called "Open Market", it is similar to Microsoft Market but this market is only for free softwares. also, it has one advantage over microsoft market, you have the option to install the downloaded softwares in your storage card (not limited to your device memory only).
there are alots of free softwares there. Its really nice, try it.
Instructions:
1- install .net framework (download it from here http://justpctech.com/PPC/NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab for those who dont have it in thier mobiles)
2-install the program (cab file attached)
3-run "Open Market", click on register and make your account
4-Login and enjoy 100's of free softwares
Cool
Thanks, nice Job!
