Therefore if my provxml fix also fixes the problem I would be more inclined to use it, as it actually corrects an error between the kitchen ROM and the Bell ROM (Helmi inlcuded those entries as a test and even mentioned it to me to be aware of them but I forgot). Those entries from that provxml came from a cab in the Bell extrom so I suspect they relate to some peculiarity of how SMS is set up on the Canadian CDMA providers.

It's great that the SMS_Providers.dll file fixes the problem as well, but I don't think I will be making that change in the kitchen since it alters the ROM from stock and could have other consequences we are not aware of yet.

@Kyr (and whomever you quoted in your post) - Your problem is due to the very first thing I mentioned in the Notes section of my sticky post. When you got to the HTC64 Tool encode stage you selected a .prj file from the R4 kitchen (or some other kitchen) and therefore your new ROM file got made in that directory instead of in the new kitchen directory. I knew this would be a major problem for people and that's why I emphasized it in my post.

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to automatically clear that "memorized" path to help prevent this problem but never was able to do it. I found the reg entries where it seems the path is stored but deleting them from the registry didn't seem to affect the HTC64 Tool's ability to remember the last place it opened a prj file from.

If anyone can figure out an easy way to clear that memorized path it would make things easier for the noobs.
Understood. I will test provxml when I get the chance. Thanks for workiing on the Kitchen. Other than the SMS wierdness, its been the most stable ROM yet.
