ANNOUNCE: 3.5 Rom Kitchen V1.2 Pre-Release -- PR2 now.

I am posting a pre-release of a version 1.2 of the rom kitchen.

This kitchen includes the following changes from version 1.1:


1. Fixed smart dialer by swapping out cprog.exe to with cprog.exe
from 3.3 rom kitchen. Also resolves ## dialing issues BUT YOU MUST
load carrier specific OEM's or CABS to support those functions.

2. Removed netcf1 folder from OS

3. Added netcf2 from kitchen OEM's while we believe netcf2 should be
an OPTIONAL oem normally, we were unable to get the live search
contacts option to work without netcf2 being built into the rom. This
problem is being investigated, but to reduce the # of questions and
problems this default rom comes with netcf2 pre-installed. you can
remove it by taking out the OEM\netcf2 directory

4. Patches GAC_* dlls using those found in 3.3 rom to resolve
contacts search from windows live. May fix other issues as well.

5. Provided a CBOW directory that can be used to add a "crossbow" look
and feel to the ROM. To use, after extracting the rom open a dos
prompt cd into the subdirectory CBOW then run the apply.bat script
there. This overwrites some original files from the OS/LOC/OEM
directories of the default kitchen and have been used by many to
give us a more "crossbow" look..
Files Hijacked by sfaure03 off of colonel's 3.3 rom.

6. Removed non-working Modem Link from programs menu. Tried to
correct the link Unsuccessfully. Will be worked on later version.
For now, the link doesnt work, so no need for it to be in the menu.



Thanks to everyones patitience and the volumous posts describing
experiences. It is that information that lead to most of these fixes.

Special Thanks to Verizon Guy who's work pointed me/us in the right
direction to fix the smart-dialler. Hopefully he is still lurking out there
and will note that nobody really meant to be disrespectful of difficult,
were just all a bit over bearing.


For clarity as to source, I am NOT placing this in the root Apache folder.
I consider it a pre-release. The ROM team just formed, hopefully
will use this work to further their work for either a release of version 1.2 or some other release number to be determined by that team. It can be retrieved from my subdirectory off the the Apache directory.

Note: This is NOT a custom rom. It is a kitchen for others to do additional build work. If you load other software to it, it should first be checked that such software fully functions on other releases of the rom as recieved from the carrier, or at least the 3.3 kitchen release. That being said. Tell us what functionality works doesn't work.


UPDATE: PRE-2 on site now. use that instead. Had a "mistake" on the original that made it ONLY the crossbow look/feel. Sorry about that, the PRE-2 is done correctly. Also fixed the "usb advanced networking" problem reported. New boot screen applied where we get Helmi_c's name correct. Modem link still in arears as well.. Happy flashing..
