just over 80 megs, everytime i try and add a program over about 500k rt now, it builds fine, but when i hard reset the screen stays white... really pisses me off. I just taught myself how to UPX things, and that is going to really help me save some room, and get more programs crammed in there. The only issue so far with UPX, is that any exe or dll that is UPX'd ... loads its ENTIRE uncompressed self into your program RAM. If your not diligent about shutting those programs down, it will quite literally laugh in your face and hard lock the phone. I have to go through my OEM's one at a time, seeing how much space im saving, and if its a program that closes itself when you exit, or if it likes to "hide". The programs that stay open are the b*tches. So most likely ill be able to compress the sh*t out of the games because most of them really close, and that will allow me more room to cram more apps into the ROM. The nice thing, is that most of the things that myself, and others want is in there (in some form or another), so the requests are slowing down.

unfortunately i cant put EVERYTHING in there, i would sure like to though!

There is a program called UPXshell - which gives you a GUI interface for UPX - ya might want it as it makes compessing the files a little eaiser.

It's on sourceforge.

I love you technohippie, uh... in a totally plutonic way..... uh...... ya..... moving right along....

(thanks!)

THis is one of, if not the best rom I've tried so far. Other then the led's off (kills vibrate) it is fantastic. Would you consider FTP'ing the raw OEM files so I could add/remove a couple of your built in programs?
about 80% or so of my OEM's are up on the FTP already, they are in the Kitchen OEM folder under J_ (JBabey), just make sure you double check them once you download them because ive made some changes to a few and havent updated the FTP yet (like doublecheck there is an initflashfiles.txt, and that it makes the correct shortcuts, stuff like that). If you have questions about the OEM packages ive uploaded, or you know i have one that is not on the FTP (cuz its in the ROM so you know i have one) just PM me and ill send it to you.

Thanks Guys!

-----------------------> just a heads up, ill be out of town this weekend, so I wont be able to get to help you guys out for about 4-5 days. Rest assured ill get to everything once I get back, and hopefully the next kitchen is ready!

Hey i got a question... why wont my phone vibrate with the MARIO! ROM ???
