So those .cereg files are post install reg settings? I see then that you added them to the .rgu. For most other OEM's, is that needed? Does that make the app "more fully installed" versus just having the program files copied to the apps directory?

As for the UC, I get it now and you are right. When I install with the cab, and it freezes right after installing and I do a reset, the app kicks right back up where it left off. I now understand what you mean by letting UC copy the link. I'll certainly give this a shot aslo when I get home.

EDIT: While i am asking questions, when I cook ThumbCal into the rom, I also found the reg settings that allow ThumbCal to be the default calendar. On first start up after flashing, when I select Calendar on the Home tab, it still launches the stock calendar. When I go into Thumbcal's settings though, it does show that Thumbcal should be the default. If I deselect them, select ok, reselect the settings again and then try it, it works.

Yes, copy from RGU to RGU, cut and paste style.

.cereg, why have the app installed when you can have the app installed with all your favorite choices? The reason behind cooking roms is so you don't have any setup time! Most programs will let you do this...

I'm having a similiar setback with a calculator... I haven't narrowed it down, but I'm gonna nail that sucker next week fo sure! I bet it's in the prov's somewhere...

I've actually just started looking at OEMs so I may just be reading it wrong, but in the initflashfiles for HTC Home it's copying all of the images to the \HTCHome folder. Is it also leaving a copy in the \Windows folder? I didn't really word my original statement too well, but the HTCHome.dll included looks for the images in \Windows, but the OEM is copying them to \HTCHome?

OEM's are strictly for putting into a kitchen when building a rom. You can't install OEM's to your phone like you can cab files and stuff. RUU folders are what you find in custom roms.

That's what I love about this place....Someone always knows something you don't, and you can fill that space between your ears with as much useless junk as you want!

And I didn't have a clean rom to make and test the OEM's, so it took a little bit.

First I'd like to release a version of neupackageinstaller.zip
neupackageinstaller.zip
This archive contains two files.
1. Copy these to \My Documents on your device. They must be in the same directory!
2. Take the OEM you want to install, make it a .zip archive and copy it to the \My Documents directory.
3. Use your favorite file explorer and launch neupackageinstaller.exe.

Note: This is No2Chem's baby, I made the files available for those wanting to use my OEM's and don't want to flash! Pay omage to no2chem, he helped pave the way for us!

OEM_ElecontWeather_v1.0.772_VGA.......................... Elecont Weather v1.0.772 (OEM Notes)
OEM Notes:
- replace the key in the RGU file for your setup. It is well commented.

OEM_ThumbCal_v1.2.5_VGA...................................... Thumb Cal v1.2.5 VGA (OEM Notes)
OEM Notes:
- Copy \Program Files\ThumbCal\settings.ini to the OEM and rename it "tc-settings.ini" and it will save most of your settings.
- On boot ..\keys\112 is set to thumcal.lnk

Both are tested good2go...Someone who uses these wanna verify these are in VGA.
