Ok I figured this out. The way VK works is that it cooks in all of the files in order of the way they are in your kitchen. So basically something is cooking in that weird signal bar and globe. I didnt have time to figure out what package is cooking it in but what I did was choose a taskbar and battery folder from the kitchen that i wanted cooked in, went to the EXT folders and put 'zz' in front of the taskbar folder and battery folder. What that does is make those 2 files the last thing that is cooked in, in essence overwriting what ever is cooking in the globe and signal bar.

Yes with VK if there are duplicate files, it will always choose the one lower in the folder structure. Thats why if you notice all modications such as say Manila come after the engine.

Are you guys doing anything special or does this issue exist with stock kitchen?

just stumbled across these reg entries that are new in the 4.2 kitchen:

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\DualRSSI\CDMA]
"EnableDualSignal" = dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CDMARSSI]
"EnableDataAnimation" = dword:00000001
"Enable1XEVStatus" = dword:00000001

BINGO change this entry to get your old taskbar signal icons back if you are getting the never ending "searching for signal" nonsense:

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\DualRSSI\CDMA]
"EnableDualSignal" = dword:00000000

found in 785ef691-88cf-476f-865d-d9707a9a1dd1.rgu in OEM > Phone > Common > OEMDrivers

Ya sorry about that

I was using a diff version of CDMA_RSSI_PPC.dll (from calks tp2 kitchen) so I never got this issue as I guess it does not reference these reg settings. When I put the old one in I got the issue you described so I just assumed without double checking my reg entries

On another note, I don't know if anyone else has done this but I've been using the enatives showcase suite just for its X button functionality (as the old task manager no longer does this in the new builds) and I have had 0 issues with freezing. The freezing issue it has is definitely tied to the task-manager itself, not the x button closing functionality. So I just removed the shortcut from the start menu(so I don't go into it by accident), and changed the hold and press start button option to the normal task manager (basically so the enatives taskmanager will never actually start, but so the service that does the xbutton functionality still runs in the background. Now pressing the X button actually closes the app, I get no freezing issues and I still have an easily accessible task manager if I need it.
