Known OEM Package Issues
12-04-07
When all packages are applied, additional icons (Comm Manager, Internet Sharing, RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, etc) appear in program menu, which are not present in the AT&T shipped ROM. This is a minor issue and will not be fixed as provxml files are PITA
HTC HomePlug package has 9 icons, however, the 8th icon does not display on Tilt ROM
Sliding Sounds package has typo - The definitions for Sliding Sound 0 are both for "out"; the first one needs to be changed to "in". (Thanks slimshadee) (fixed in 12-17-07 OEM package update)
12-07-07
Ring-WindowsMobile and Ring-Vision ringtones show up, but are not present. (fixed in 12-17-07 ROM folder update) This can be resolved by changing the following in SYS\Base_Lang_0409\813fd1d1-ca6f-4b6d-96d2-c97fb99bd535.rgu:

Tired of Flashing
Just installed and I must say it's the fastest out the box so far.
Because it's clean & an AT&T Rom...I haven't had any carrier related issues, no registry tweaking required & I have plenty of space to put what I want & need.
All the other ROMs required too much tweaking and I also experienced some freezing.
I went thru this ROM flashing crap with my MDA...just want the damn thang to work.
From what I've seen and experienced so far....clean & stable is the way to go.
This device has plenty of storage space so there's no need to stuff it like with other devices.
If you have more than 60megs of crap to install...get a laptop
Thanks for the ROM/ROMs & I hope this is my last flash

Very Cool! Thanks for doing this!
I'm downloading the clean rom now and then will push it up to other sites for mirrors. Can someone do the same for the other two downloads (OEM Packages and ROM Folders)?
[Edit] Ok, I griped to quickly... MegaUpload let me pull all 3 down one after another (never been able to do that before). I'll mirror these shortly so there are other options.

what about the latest OS and .net?
This is a very clean ROM, but it does not have the latest .net and OS - any chance of on newer version?

Congratulations, you're making a great job...
Cheers.

would this work with the new radio or would i have to downgrade ?

The ROM includes the latest radio 1.27.14.09, so no worries for upgrades or future downgrades.

Please tell me I can use a custom 2G dialer and have smart dialing options enabled? and that there's no (A) in the dial screen menu

THANK YOU!!!!!
Finally...a clean base with options to cook an ATT ROM for the Tilt.
I have one note for you Alex...
Your OEM_ATT_160_Sliding_Sounds package has a typo in the rgu file (this same typo is also in the 1.56 rom package folder as well)...
The definitions for Sliding Sound 0 are both for "out"; the first one needs to be changed to "in".
My last goal is to completely obliterate touchflo...I thought I did so from the 1.56 rom package you provided by eliminating the TFSettings and Registry entries, but I think touch.dll also needs to be removed, am I correct?
Thanks again for your great work..
shadee

I can't stand touch flo either

Alarm no worky...I'll try the newer version with 3.5.net and see what happens.
Workaround: loaded ptravelalarm

NetCF 3.5 links updated in main post.

You're welcome! I like to hear people are using my ROM and are happy with its minimal featureset. I'm even happier when people use the entire package to cook their own ROMs!

In NetCF 3.5 ROM, was able to set an alarm in the 'clock & alarms' control panel just fine and it went off at the appropriate time. Have not verified if this is a problem with NetCF 2.0.

Should be able to install any cab on top of the dialer. Smart dialing is available as an OEM package, but not installed in the ROM.

Yup, that should do it. I'll consider releasing another rom with Touchflo disabled and an OEM package to re-enable. Thanks again for all your input!

I am seeing problems with netcf rom. To fix, install cab. Will spend some time fixing rom and oem package when I'm in front of a computer.
-- NetCF 3.5 ROM & OEM package removed.

Thanks a million but...
Alex;
Thank you for releasing a clean ROM; but I also have to say ARRRGH! Why? Well I thought when I got the Tilt that my days of being a "flashaholic" had been cured by going from a Wizard to a Tilt. I mean, this thing has more than enough memory for me, both storage and operating, is certainly fast enough for what I use it for, and other than a few little quirks which I was able to take care of pretty much great out of the box.
Then I decided that I wanted the new radio since there are a couple of spots I am in every day where reception is iffy, but to get the new radio you need the new ROM so the idea of flashing crept in. I downloaded the "newer stock" AT&T ROM but got busy at work. I knew the kitchen existed but just didn't feel like getting into it since work has been 14 hour days and traveling so I simply don;t have time to be messing with my device or dealing with it not being 100%
But now that you have such a clean ROM, all the packages easily accessible I seem to have caught the bug again big time! I used mattrk's kitchen with my Wizard so I understand the basic concept of packages into OEM, build OS, create nbf and flash but this one seems a little different. I read the readme and everything else I can find and I know that the kitchen creator was working on a step by step but I was wondering if someone could validate or correct my thought process here.
I downloaded and installed the kitchen and the build OS updates. I just extracted them into c:\kaiserkitchen. There was nothing overwritten so I am not sure if I did this properly.
I installed hardSPL
From your first post I downloaded the cooked ROM with NetCF3.5, the OEM packages and the ROM folders. This is where I got a little confused. If I have the ROM folders can I simply add the OEM packages I want (including the NETCF3.5 package NETCFv35_wm_armv4i) into the OEM folder, move all three folders to the Base ROM folder in the kitchen and then use the kitchen starting with !Cook?
Alternatively do I need to extract from the whole ROM I downloaded and then do the rest of the process?
Also, I saw your post about some issues with NetCF3.5 ROM, that you said could be fixed with a cab, but I don't see it. Would there be the same problems if I added the package NETCFv35_wm_armv4i?
Sorry for asking a question that I could probably just experiment with on my own and figure out but I simply don't have enough hours in the day lately.
Thanks again for all your work on this!

Fix for the Incompatible NETCF v2.0, v3.5 and SQL problem

While the WM6.0 and WM6.1 edited ROMs with the newest NETCF v3.5 come
out one by one, most of them have a problem of incompatible NETCF and SQL with some softwares.
< For example >
Software 1. " Six Law" -------> e-book database of law, sqlce30.ppc.wce5.cab is needed for it (also installed manually)
Software 2. " All-In-Me" ------> business software, sqlce.wce4.armv4.cab and sql.wce4.armv4.cab are needed for it (also installed manually)
After the two softwares mentioned above installed and run,
I keep getting the error message listed below:
System.IO.FileLoadException : Could not load file or assembly
'System.Data.SqlServerCe, Version=3.0.3600.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=3be235df1c8d2ad3, Retargetable=Yes'
or one of its dependencies.
The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference.
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
After the discussion in this thread (especially thanks to juju-35), we get a
solution to fix that problem. List as below:
For people who need the solution to fix the incompatible NETCF and SQL,
Just collect the files mentioned here and install according to the instructions.
1. NETCFv2.wm.armv4i.cab-----> I don't know why I couldn't upload this file
But you can get this file (about 2.13MB) from forum or download the
NETCFSetupv2.msi (about 37.1MB) from Microsoft website.
After installing NETCFSetupv2.msi on PC, you can get the cab
"NETCFv2.wm.armv4i.cab" from :
C:/Program Files/Microsoft.NET/SDK/CompactFramework/V2.0 /WindowsCE/WCE500/armv4i
Copy this file to Kaiser and install it.
2. sqlce30.ppc.wce5.cab -------> I have uploaded this file
Copy this file to Kaiser and install it. It provides the assembly
of 'System.Data.SqlServerCe, Version=3.0.3600.0.
3. NetCFConfig.zip -------> I have uuploaded this file
Unzip this file and you get a folder. Copy the folder to Kaiser's main
memory. The folder has NetCFCfg.exe and two .dll files(ARM version) in it.
Then run " NetCFCfg.exe " and you can see the configure screen as below:
Four menus:
About ----> Show the .Net Compact Framework versions installed
You should see 2.0.6129.0 and 3.5.7283.0
GAC-------> Show all the Assemblies installed in the Global Assembly Cache
Device Policy----> In this menu, you can set the default NetCF to v3.5.7283
and click Apply button.
Application Policy----> Here you can override device policy for applications.
That is you can choose which software to run with
NetCF v2.0.6129. Then click apply button.
After that, enjoy!!!
If anyone occurs any other special situation, please post it here for discussion.

Is there any way to have downward compatible?
Maybe the sqlserverce is in the rom files so we can't made any modification to them.

i dont see my rom listed

I've had the same problem with many of the new wm6 and wm6.1 rooms
the program i use is pocket e-sword which requires SQLCE 2.0 or sqlce.wce4.armv4.cab
the 2 wm 6.1 roms i've tried that works is sleuth's (which i'm currently on) and austinsync's hybrid.
i've tried laurentius, udk, dutty's wm6.1 all can't..

Sorry, I had spend too much time to reflash my TyTN II so that there might be some other ROMs not yet tried.
I 'll give it a try when I get some free time.
Thanks.

L26 WM 6.1 Professional WWE V5
Laurentius26 has released a new WM6.1 ROM~ L26 WM 6.1 Professional WWE V5.
It's fully compatible with Sqlce. I' ve tried this ROM and I like it very much.

Thank you my friend,
I was reading your thread before and saw which ROM's are compatible,
it was easy to take out the Sqlce from one of these
Cheers,
Leo

Not sure if you've realized the pattern, but the incompatible ROMs are the ones which have upgraded to NetCF 3.5 and SQLCE 3.5.
The ones that are not incompatible have NETCF 2.0 and SQLCE 3.0 just like the shipped ROM.
Hope this helps!

Your not completely right here!
I do have NetCF 3.5 running and my V5 ROM is compatible!
It was the first thing that I was thinking as well btw.
Thanks for letting me know

Was informing the original Op. It seems like you're the only person who tried to make any changes as everyone else has pretty much stayed clear of this thread.
Craig, I'm surprised you even listed my beta2 UltraClean ROM since it doesn't even have NetCF 3.5 SQL CE installed, hence UltraClean. You could always install Sql CE 3.0 and it won't be a problem. That's why I offer so many variants.
Hope this helps!

Hi, Alex, your rom is also very nice. The only one issue I occurred is that
after installing the E-book database of law I got an error message
as follows,
The file 'SLink' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate,
or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try
reinstalling or restoring this file.
I have installed sqlce30.ppc.wce5.cab and NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab manually,
but still got the error message.
Sorry that I didn't describe this in the first post.

Hello,
If your problem(s) come form the .NET CF 2.0 vs 3.5, which I think was mentioned to be the problem for esword in particular, there was actually a workaround posted in Quentin's ROM thread. I ran into the same problems with some of my cabs, I did the changes suggested in the thread, and it worked for me.
Basically, these were the steps:
1- Flash any ROM that has .NET CF 3.5 (most ROMs these days)
2- Install .NET on your PC (needed for step 3, I found out!). Can be dowloaded form Microsoft website.(Install file called NETCFSetup35.msi)
3- Install .NET power toys from MS. (File called NETCF-v35PowerToys.msi)
4- Install .NET v.20 on your PPC (cabs can be found on this forum)
5- Copy Netcfg.exe and its dll (ARM version) to your PPC and run it (prog can be found in Program Files/.NET directory on your PC)
THe NEcfg.exe is a nifty utility that allows you to detect all .NET CF versions installed on your PPC, and apply a default version to all programs but setup a few programs to run on a different .NET CF (like 2.0).
This way you can have programs that would run on any versions of .NET CF installed while having msot of your programs running on the faster, newer version.
I researched this to get Zagat 2 GO ( a great restaurant guide!) to run. Runs beautifully for me on Schap's, Dutty and 5.2 Alex ROMs (the program needs CF 2.0 to run and the default on those ROMs is 3.5).
Hope this helps.

Make the NetCF Fix more easier
Yeah, I 've tested that method. It really works. All softwares can be run on

Hi Craig,
I'd like to add this as a link in the wiki. Can you edit the topic to be more appropriate now that you've found the fix? It'd also be very helpful if you were to summarize all your findings and your solution in the first post.
Thanks much!

to main memory. For me, if I put the NetCF Config folder in micro SD card,
the fix doesn't work. So I copy the folder to Program Files folder in main memory.

won't install for me...
this is a great work around it seems, i still have one issue. When installing NET CF v2.0, it won't install. It gets to the very end then says "Installation error. Stop all applications and processes, maximize available storage space, and run installation again. Support info: 3." .. followed by the .cab installation saying "Installation of NETCFv2.wm.armv4i.cab was unsuccessful"
What is the issue here? how do I fix this???
I'm running ROM 3.49.NO2.5066 (19588 WM 6.1) on Radio: 3.37.20 on an Alltel Titan

i have this problem when trying to install .net 3.5
any help on this error?

.Net Compact Framework 2.0 & 3.5?

Is it possible to have both installed simultaneously and in ROM? I have had a look at the files with each OEM package and there are two common files (cgacutil.exe & mscoree.dll). I have attempted to put both .NetCF packages in ROM - i.e. removing the two older files from the .NetCF 2.0 package however it doesn't work. The ROM works, however .NetCF 2.0 reliant applications (VoIPSetup.exe, LiveSearch etc) don't run.
Just wondering if anyone has managed this?
Cheers
Andy

Yes. Then run the NetConfigurator (can't find the link at the moment) to select which app will use which version. I use it now.

Please let us know the link as I also cant get the link durring my initial searches.

Yes I cooked the .Net Configurator (NetCFCfg.exe) into my ROM and tried this but it didn't work. The Configurator works and I can change the .Net version that is used for the Applications it lists, however the .Net reliant applications don't run. I think the two overlapping files are the issue.
Did you cook both .NetCF versions into your ROM or did you add one?

I added it after .NetCF 2.0 to a ROM that had 3.5.
BTW here's a link for NetCFCfg.exe

XDA-Live incompatible with a lot of programs?

I just installed the rom today and installed 4 programs (ftouchsl, jivetalk, hhc, and shcaps advance config) and i get this error on each : the file " " cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. I fht eproblem persest, try reinstalling or restoring this file. Super annoying, any ideas?

I dont guess you tried the SDK certificates cab?

I did, i still get the error

[May 4 2008] WM6.1 - 3.0 XDA Live Tilt A(lpha)1 Rom Release!
* Disable Security Warning for Unsigned Apps & Cabs
* SDK Certificates have been installed
These have already been done assuming you are using the latest ROM. With Schaps Config. usually installing .NET 2 or 3 using fixes these kind of issues. I'm not sure which one XDA Live has installed. I occasionally have the same problem with Bankarama so I end up installing both 2 and 3.

1. post in the xda-live thread
2. did you install .net cf?

Finally! Thanks a lot guys. I installed the .net compact (it was around 6mb :\ but o well) and now all is well. Thanks again.

XDA Live is an "ULTRA Lite" Rom. There is no .Net CF installed by default. This is listed in the first post of the XDA Live Thread.

.NetCF 2.0 & 3.5 in the same ROM?

I had an issue on my Wizard when I owned it with three applications that would only run with .NetCF 2.0 installed. These were Schaps VoIP SIP configuration tool, a Threaded SMS enabler/disabler tool (can't remember who made it?) and the MoDaCo 'NoData' tool to disable GPRS. I re-cooked the ROM and removed .NetCF 2.0 and included .NetCF 3.5, when I did this none of the applications listed would run. Other .NetCF apps would run - MS LiveSearch and Calculator, however the three listed wouldn't.
I tried to merge the OEM packages for .NetCF2.0 and .NetCF3.5 by merging the .RGU files, putting all non-overlapping .dll's in the same package and using the newer .exe's from .NetCF3.5. However when I did this none of the .NetCF applications would run. Does anyone know if it's possible to merge the two .NetCF packages or any other way of including both in the same ROM?
I am currently using a custom ROM built from the official HTC WWE 6.1 ROM (5.2.19212).
Thanks
Andy

install both without marging and in the registry hives you must set a netcf as primary .net libery

That's the problem. I can't find a way to install both in the ROM (this is a Rom development forum right?). I want a way of including BOTH in the ROM unless anyone has .NetCF3.5 capable versions of the software I listed?
Cheers

Well what you do is, build your ROM with .Net 2.0 included. Then once you flash to it, install the .Net 3.5 cab. That way you have both.

That is what I am doing currently - via the config.txt I install the .NetCF3.5 .cab. I just wanted a ROM that has both included...
I shouldn't have bothered posting....

First of all, why in Kaiser rom section if the problem is on Wizard?
My cooked rom do have .NetCF 2.0 removed and doesn't seem to have problem w/ Nodata, voip config tool.
