How to use WMReloc instead of GReloc

[ghettofreeryder]

Since the GReloc parser seems to be buggy, here is how to properly incorporate WMReloc into your kitchen scripts.

1. Delete GReloc from root and the tools folder.
2. Add WMReloc to the tools folder
3. Open your kitchen script
3. Find the line containing G'Reloc -doit dump
4. Change that code to read Tools\WMReloc.exe -gtemp\dump -lWMReloclog.txt

The -lWMReloclog.txt is not needed, so if you dont need the log for troubleshooting bad modules, you can delete it. If anyone needs a hand with the scripts, I can help.

For reference, here is my script

@BuildOS
@cls
@echo.
@echo Combining DSM Files into one
@Tools\all_packages_to_one
@echo Deleting rgu files
@del buildpkg.wrn
@echo Running G'Reloc
@del WMReloclog.txt
@Tools\WMReloc.exe -gtemp\dump -lWMReloclog.txt
@echo Rebuilding templates...
@mkdir .\Temp2
@cd .\Temp2

fancy list nice write up has well.


if your device has a true 6.5 kernal(Currenly only the Fuze, GSM Touch Pro) then you need to use a differnent WMReloc. that tool is able to modify the reloc, so that it can take advantage of the extra slot in the nk.exe. so I uploaded both of them.

Most everyone will use the 6.1 Kernal, unless you are a GSM TP user, and you have a True nk.exe from a 6.5 rom, and if you have this then that means you work for Microsoft.

It will come in handy later on in the year when we get on to new devices that will recieve a free 6.5 upgrade.

Thank you for the info. Tried this but unfortunately still cannot get a bootable rom with 21215. Guess Ill be waiting for a new kitchen.

[onlinespending]

same here. updated script to use wmreloc, but rom is unbootable.

So, how is this better than using the dummy greloc to forward to wmreloc?

[KBZL]

obviously not too much better cause it didn't work for me.

Just because it's not booting doesn't mean it's a reloc issue. Did you try swapping out .rom, .vm, and wincenls folders from a working sys?

I have booted 21502 and 21215 successfully.
