How To: Kitchens

[nttdemented]

Awesome info Tobey, I noticed that form OEMizer once when I used it a few moons ago but its nice to know how the kitchen behaves. I just saved that snip into a notepad and put stored it along with the kitchen and module downloads.

And with 20931 I really hammered on it during the gridlock now after work and I did notice some performance hiccups that I wouldn't get on previous builds. I did test the handsfree BT to my car and as some have reported, only a single call can be made and after you hang up all sound gets lost with a soft reset required.

I'm gonna switch to 20757 as it seems like reports of it are turning out that it is very stable. Great job as always team C4RBON! I'm feeling like I might try to make a ROM release soon once I get comfortable editing and messing with the kitchen enough.

I noticed that the first posts mentions that the detailed info for OEMizer is a work in progress. Is there a good resource someone can point me to to learn how to use OEMizer to add cab files to a custom rom? Thanks.

This is what I did for my first OEMizer try

(Do this first - In the kitchen folder create a Folder called Group - Name and inside the folder create a XML file mxip_myProv_100.provxml - I used DreamWeaver - I had to do this just to see the text of what the end result would be)

The File/Shortcut section - This is were you can add cabs - I added three cabs with the "New File" button - If I understand how this worked it added a Folder in the OEM folder called "Group - Name" - And in BuildOS it only adds one "package" - In this case all three cabs in one line item (I think)

Additional Reg items is exacly what it is called - You can add your weather and touch regs - I think

So on and so forth

From my little experience - Seems to me you could basically set up your whole phone just the way you want it - Add pop, exchange, Imap, User info all that.


I hope that helps - I am still learning also

Never read it, but I'm sure it has everything you could want to know.

got it working. Re unrared the files and worked fine. Thanks for the help.

There is definitely a problem tied the volume up and the select button on the dpad. This is still apparent with the 20757 SYS. To verify it put the green selection on any of the shortcuts on the home screen. Press vol up a few times and that shortcut will get executed. Use the dpad and it takes a couple tries for it to work. I'm just reporting this one because I really have no idea how to get started on a solution for it.
EDIT: Not related to these updates but has anyone had problems with java in opera? I have to turn Java off to be able to type in the reply boxes of some forums.

I haven't played with 20757 much but just wanted to say that 20931a is head and shoulders above any other rom configuration I have used for battery life.
