So i started building this rom for my AT&T Tilt a few days ago and i have run into a few issues i was wondering if anyone else has encounterd them and knows a fix. Ive been doing alot of searching and googleing and haven't found alot of answers.
1st i started out using alex's 3.03 winmo 6.1 htc rom. I had issues with the camera not working with radio 1.65 so i flashed to radio 1.64. But i was still having a problem with the device not doing a soft reset unless i physically push the button. So i searched around and my findings lead me to believe there is no fix for this so i need to use version 3.02. Then i went and got version 3.02 and when i rebuilt the rom everything seemed fine but there is no links to the hardware buttons in the settings applet for buttons. Is this a common issue i cant find anything about this anywhere??!
2nd when building packages sometimes they dont work... Ive built a few packages and they all turn out fine Ive run into some problems with the shortcuts but editing the initflash by hand fixes it everytime. Some packages ive made though just dont work, they install fine but when i run the app i get a component missing error, the weird thing is the cabs i used to intall these packages have no issues what so ever, an example would be frNotepad 1.2 if anyone has ever tried to turn that into a package.
Last question i have is how do you set up a defualt theme I noticed the htc theme package in alexs oem packs sets its self up as the defualt theme i looked through it did a search on cusTSK didnt find much info. So i tried to rename my theme to htc.tsk and just replace the theme file in the htc theme package but that just screwed the whole theme up.

Look for the file 47d2a96e-f0dd-40e1-8f5b-a8cdc083a165.rgu and in it is the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys. This contains which application the hardware button will launch when pressed.
For the reset issue, 3.03 ROM have some problems. Upgrade to a more newer ROM. I created my own LITE ROM Folder similar to Alex. You can check my post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399733. It is based on 3.28 official ROM.

When building packages, double check the initflashfiles.txt to make sure the shortcuts are correct. For the component missing error, CAB and ROM Packages is not entire identical. In CAB, you can create the shortcuts without the need for the included LNK in the packages and initflashfiles.txt, but for ROM Packages, you need both files. So basically if the CAB works, it doesn't mean the ROM Package will also work.

I have just finished a quick lite rom based on Helmi_ C AKU 0.70 rom which I find very stable even for a beta.
Everything Remains the Same apart from what I took out the rom which as follows:
1. Htc audio manager
2. HTC HOME Plugin
3. Office Mobile
4. OneNote Mobile
5. BT_FTP=1_2_30490_1
6. JbedJava_MIDP=0_0_20070726_1_1
7. HTC task manager
8. Voice Speed dial
9. WindowsLive
Rom is working fast with only one bug which i'm trying to fix which is:
After Flashing the rom and after configuration and reset the rom wont boot. But if you reset it before CONFIGURATION the rom works ok as normal. very strange.
I will try to fix it but I have got all the configuration cabs which can be install manual. These files are:
1. Configure_COMgr175.CAB
2. Configure_DDI171.CAB
3. Configure_GPS.CAB
4. Configure_Key.CAB
5. Configure_WLAN.CAB
6. WiFicountrycode.CAB
Total storage memory is 133.16 mb and free program is 74.15 mb
Cabs can be found in my thread which is located here.

Link>>> Rom has got more work to do will fix it as soon I got some more time.
Still a problem with configuration just soft rest before config starts.
Install config cabs below, enjoy
Thanks to POF and OLIPRO for all there hard work and tadzio with contributing in helping us with customising his tools so they can work for kaisers. And thanks to everyone who was helping with the kaiser project.
I will be making or modyfing roms as lite as possible which I think is the best way to go as programs gets updated regular.

Reservation for updates

helmi_c done a great job with the rom I didnt have to do nothing with it might strip it down further for who love ultr lite roms but not losing any stability of course
There is more work to be done on this rom
I realise there is more work to be done on this ROM. First I forgot and allowed the configuration to go on. So I had to reflash (forgot HR would do) and prevent installation of the configuration. I then installed the cabs posted, but device refused to boot after soft-reset
So I am back on Helmi's ROM.
Dutty, you must have removed the power icon in settings as I could not find it to see how much longer I could go on trying to revive my device without running out of power

same here I must have deleted something in the rom I also found huge battery drain my highly suspicions are one of the activation cabs is causing this.
Sorry guys my first rom didnt made it as yet will pull it down as i think its not stable.
Cheers
My apologies
I have taken down the rom found a huge battery drain in rom.
Well, I installed it and everything went okay. Installed the extra cabs and looked good. I wanted to try WisBar instead of the start menu app I'd been using before so installed their latest versions. Whoops that made a total mess of things, locked up at the end of install and still was locking up after soft resets. So had to hard reset and start all over again. I've not used this app before, so not sure if it was the ROM causing the problem or not.

Ah, okay, yeah I've continued to have problems with it, keeps locking up on me when doing a soft reset. So guess it wasn't wisbar that was the problem. I'll go back to the standard HTC Rom for now.
to moderators
Can you please close this thread as lite rom has been made by helmi so thus all support should be in that forum. thanks
Hi everyone,
I installed a new rom from Helmi's .90 kitchen and everything works great, I strongly recomend it. One thing I have noticed is that I can not change the settings files for the programs that are installed via the kitchen. For instance I am trying to change the english.language.ini file for PocketCM but the file properties show that it is read only and (in ROM). Other programs do the same. I have tried to change the properties but it wont let me. I dont think it has anything to do with it but I do have the ext rom unlocked. Is this normal for ROM programs or am I missing something.
I have tried searching and have not come up with something so I dont know if this is something with me and my device. I have reflashed twice with the same effect.
I have an HTC Apache/XV6700
Thanks everyone, you guys are amazing. Timmay!!!
EDITED
just found anoher thread about it soz, pls mod remove this

Hi all:
i've been playing around with some ROMS lately; some of us do use the arabizer application which enables you to read and write arabic language and also installs some other minor arabic programs on your device.
i have noticed some issues with some ROMS and need help in solving them, here are my observations:
Diamond Roms till V8 work with arabizer, but ofcourse the keyboard issue doesn't allow you to use the arabic keyboard and you need to install the IM default cab to get it to work.
Death Roms till v4.1 do not work at all; you just get install unsuccessfull even before it starts to install on first block, tried:
1- install from fresh upgrade didn't work
2- install from hard reset did not work.
3- installed net cf 2 and chose as default, did not work
4- installed net cf 3.5 on cf 2 and chose 3.5 as default did not work
5- tried on another handset still doesn't work
6- tried intsall on SD card
iat first i thought it was framework issue but i think it's not, it has to be something in the core which i know nothing about.
tried the ryV5 rom also has the same problem as death roms and would not install.
Can anyone help find a solution to this please as it would be great to get it to work on death and ryV5 roms and should be intresting to know why such application would not work, it might help in near future for other applications.
note: i chose to make a thread about this as i cannot post same question in each ROM thread
Regards,
Hasso

I have installed In4mobility software on all of the cooked 6.1 ROMs and it is running fine. The only issue I have is it always defaults to Arabic Keyboard, even when in same session but switching between programs. Other than that it is running great. I would install on Main Mem,,,,, avoid installing on SD card, it will become buggy, and might cause freezing.
Do a search for Informobility software. It is not that expensive.

i know it works but not the keyboard, and it crashes the device n regular bases and makes it really slow
imaginet arabizer is always the best choice
I apologize. I just found out that my ROM comes with .net 3.5. So there is a different reason why TF3D Config is erroring when I run it. I guess this should be deleted.
================
I can not install .netframe 3.5 onto my TouchPro (Raphael). I tried both .cab & .msi and get the same results. Error about closing apps and processes for more storage and to reinstall.
Searches brought me to post of people experiencing the same, but no solution. I even tried to install after a hard reset, and same result. I am using Juggalo ROM. Unfortunately I need this to work to use alot of stuff I want.
This is my first ROM I'm releasing.
I have created a Danish WM6.5 ROM with 85 MB free ram
I have done everything I can to make it stable and fast. I'm using it myself and I'm very happy with it.
This ROM is based on the latest Danish stock ROM I could get hold of.
I have removed some of the stock programs, and have added the following programs:
Code:
Bluetooth notifier
Mortscript (Un-Installable)
The ROM is extendir enable. You can everything about extendir here
This ROM is created with ervius visual kitchen
I thank everyone that have made this possible.
If I'm distribution anything that I shouldn't or haven't mentioned any people that I should then please let me know. It is not out of respect of other people, it is simply because I either didn't realize that I have used some of their stuff or because I have forgotten.
To use this ROM you must have a storage card for the initial flash.
First you extract the contents of the lagerkort.7z to the root of the storage card, so that you end up with a folder called extendir with a few folders and one file inside.
If you want some cabs to be installed as part of the new flash then copy then to the extendir\setups\<sub folder>. only cabs that are in a sub folder in setups will appear. So make one and only one level under setups for the cabs. (they will not be installed automatic, you get to chose which you want to install, so all all you cabs if you want)
Then you flash the ROM and leave the storage card in for the first 2 boots.
on 1st boot after you have calibrated the screen the customization starts, WM looks awful here, don't worry about this, as this step will extract all of the missing WM files to to the extendir folder.
On 2 boot the preset installer will boot and you can chose a few extra cabs to install and the ones that you have added.
You can download the ROM from here:

Congratulation and wellcome new chef
I suggest you to include some pics because you will be ask for that
Cheers.
Thank you.

Danish rom with Manilla?
Would it be possible to create a version with Manilla? I would really love a danish rom with Manilla and HTC Weather...
Regards Ulrik
I possibly could create one.
But I recommend that you install Manilla after with a cab, or with zip files (in the extender folders) this should give the fastest rom. I can help create the scripts so that Manilla will install on first boot if you want?
hey man i can't get the hardware keyboard to input properly for æ, ø, å. I looked through your cabs but don't see a fix do you have one?
I tried this SkandinaviskTastatur5.CAB and XDA_JCEspi2005_Danish_Input_Kaiser.cab neither of which work. Let me know if you have a solution
I have a danish keyboard on my too, and the mappings are just fine on that one. So have no idea what could be wrong, unless there are more than one version of a danish keyboard. I access my æøå by FN and <UP><DOWN><UP> respectively.
I forgot to mention that I'm using a different rom to yours. Maybe you need a Danish WM 6.5 to get the hardware keyboard to work. If you could help me out in anyway that would be awesome cause it's a bit frustrating hunting around to find ? and stuff heh
Ahh that explains.....
I have no idea how to get the danish keys then. If I knew what to put in it I could create a CAB file for you, but I really have no idea what to put in to this cab...
I had the same problem when I used WWE roms, and never got it sorted.
@ Blindpet, try doing this:
Use a registry editor and change the following:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\Devicemap\Keybd\CurLang to 1044, this worked for me
I tried your ROM and overall its pretty good but i dont know if its my phone thats not set up properly but this rom have got a lot of screen lag though.
Anyway would be great with a proper danish rom for this great phone, keep up the good work
//KillerBee
EDIT: This solution doesnt work for me now.. I am not quite sure how you are supposed to change the HW keyboard language for a winmo 6.5 phone
