oem vs ext? To find out whats best for 2.1 start menu on 2.5
 

Please define the difference

pros and cons

Re: oem vs ext?
 

I don't really see any difference. The same info is all there, just a little different format. Old style kitchen vs. Visual Kitchen.

Re: oem vs ext?
 

OEM packages have all the files and modules in one folder.

EXT packages have reg and initflash info in the root folder and all other files in a sub-folder named files. EXT packages don't have/use .dsm or option.xml files.

another thing is with platformrebuilder, some provxmls do not get processed properly in EXT's, but in OEM they work fine.

Manila_Message=2_6_19221224_0
HTCMessaging_Client=1_2_19222231_00 (leo is 1_15)
Task_Manager=2_1_19212822_21


is also has these but we dont need them using cdma:
