*Should I start a new thread on this since it's technically not a Bug?*

I edited and replaced initflashfiles.dat in the OEM_Lang_0409 and built my ROM. On the first boot, The top bar came up but the WM logo stayed up on my today screen. The phone had an X over it. I couldn't get any of the buttons to recognize except Start+D. I aligned the screen and could then get to my today screen.

The problem then was the file I edited only partially ran. The start menu was totally jacked and I basically couldn't do anything. There was no Settings folder and the Programs folder only contained Windows Medie Player. Where the Menu items would be normally, coldinit and one other file were listed. They normally go in the Startup folder and are hidden.

So, I started over. I put the default file back in the OEM and added my edited version to a custom OEM as suggested. The result is the same. So basically that file, with this new format, cannot be edited. Or, you know, I'm doing something wrong. It's like the file partially processes, but skips the entire top portion where folders are created. I didn't remove any entries. I only commented out the items I do not want to run and changed the Menu entries from Start Menu to Start Menu\Programs.

I've attached the file for someone to go over along with my WM5 kitchen file that always worked.

Thanks smart people.
