However, if installation of the cab could be tied to the selection of a specific carrier, it might happen. Thus, by selecting a supported carrier from the drop-down-list, the PPCKitchen would silently install the appropriate PPST.exe. Obviously, at the moment, cabs are only available for Sprint or Altell.

A great thought, hetaldp.

here is the response that i received in the kitchen thread to the same question when asked a day or so ago:

1) is there a way to implement the ppst.exe and its components from the leaked rom? after allowing all the customizations to run using the leaked rom, then running ppst.exe the gps quality and speed improvement is INCREDIBLE - better than lots of bt receivers im sure you've read. and ive also heard signal is boosted though i didnt really get much of a chance to test that.

2) i think the problem to the internet always being active is that it thinks it needs to use microsoft direct push regardless of whether you have it set to that or not. because every time i disabled the data connection (to save on my battery) after it had started it up, it said something like are you sure you want to stop it, this will disable microsoft direct push...soo...anything there?

3) in my first rom i cooked from here the "menu sounds" (the pop's and clicks from wm5 when you tapped menu's or other items) worked great. now i have that oem still selected, and nothing. so i made my own and selected both (with a few conflicts). still nothing. then i installed over as a cab afterward and still nothing. anyone have any guess as to why that might be?

thanks a lot for all your work!!!!!!!!

As it stands the kitchen only updates the OS portion of the phone, so even if you forget or make a mistake on selecting the right carrier, you only have to rerun the kitchen choosing the right carrier to fix it.

If you made a mistake with the radio, well the kitchen can't easily fix that, you'd end up having to search the forums for a official rom for your carrier to revert the changes made to your radio/phone portion..

Get my drift?

so until all carriers can enable that, it probably wont be happening but o well not a big pain, just select it in user customization, run the exe, and youre still good to go
