I started out with that one, but I was pretty new to the whole thing back then so never did get what I characterize as a successful rom out of it.

Its pretty much the same thing as the OMJ one. Like you, I started out with the OMJ one, but I never got what I would characterize as a successful ROM out of it either, LOL! Its like opposites. They are both still the ERVIUS kitchen rebadged to include some special goodies, but I'm still worried about my kitchen.

Testing

I never thought I would come to this, but I am in a "jam". The Caulkin Kitchen is very useful, but flaky, and it has destroyed yet another one of my ROMs, and I need something for myself and to share with the community, so I gave the OMJ kitchen one last shot and was actually very impressed with what I came up with except for a few crucial things:


FlipIt - Not working right. I enabled it, and then, get this, you can use it once. Whatever angle you rotate it to you are stuck at until you soft reset, after which you are permanently stuck at 0 degrees. Is there any fix for this? It seems to be the same version, so I'm guessing there is a conflicting program or settings somewhere.

Comm Manager - Text is about five times too large. Where can I get a NORMAL Comm Manager EXT file?


Thanks for your help guys. Hopefully someone is still watching this thread for posts.

PS: This is a 21055 WM6.1 build that I'm working with if it makes any difference.

Don't blame the kitchen for your mistakes. Your posts saying a 'kitchen' messed up your rom are getting old. A kitchen is just a tool. It will make a good ROM if it is configured by the user correctly.

You can get a Comm manager EXT from any stock ROM you wish to dump. That's where all of the packages/EXT's come from. I don't use flip it, but I'd guess you just don't have it configured correctly. Are you trying to cook in settings or configuring it after you flash the ROM? Leave it out of the ROM and install the flipit cab to see if that will work for you.

Sounds good.

I don't know which/if the stock ROMs have the good Comm Manager. I am surprised to be unable to find the Comm Manger in the kitchen. I even did a search for "CommManager.exe" (how it appears in the "Windows" Folder on the device) inside of my kitchen's folder and only found the bad version of the Comm Manager.

I have it configured the same way on my Caulkin ROMs and it never gave me any trouble.

I cook it in with the default and configure it after flashing the ROM ("OFF" is the default, plus you have to add and adjust exceptions for Manila afterwords).

Will try. I only recently got someone to let me borrow an XDA DEVELOPERS Community forum official logon card, so I will try that in this afternoon's episode at the kitchen.

I have no idea what you are doing to the kitchen since I am still using the original Comm Manager from OMJ's kitchen w/absolutely no problems.

It looks a bit like this:
xda-developers

Only the font is a little odd.

As an update announcement, I did confirm that the copy of "FlipIt" included with the OMJ is indeed defective, because upon removing it from the build and installing a new CAB version of it I had no more problems.

I also noticed that the device no longer automatically unlocks when you remove the stylus, and the backlight does not time out sooner when in bright light. Any ideas?

Also, does anyone know what minimum options need to be selected to get the PhoneCanvas working. I'll be experimenting with it more today or tomorrow, but there are so many options for the "Rhodium" Dialer, I don't know which ones specifically to select.

Thanks.

For the stylus not working, it is because OMJ's kitchen uses the CDMA TP 6.5 nk.exe. Since I think you only cook WM 6.1, you can take original Diamond nk.exe from either Calkulin's old kitchen or dump a Sprint Diamond ROM and get it yourself. The TP 6.5 nk.exe will offer no advantages when running 6.1. I'm just guessing on the Rhodium Dialer based on Calkulin's kitchen, but I would guess you need the following:

Phone - Rhodium PhoneCanvas 3.40.35284.0
Phone Call Log (pick either black or white)
Phone Dialer - Rhodium PhoneCanvas (pick 1 color)

That should be it assuming OMJ did not change it when he worked with Calkulins kitchen.

Thanks. Do you know exactly what the 6.1's NK is labeled? I did a search for just "nk.exe" with the windows search looking inside of Caulkin's kitchen, but only found some folders labeled "nk.exe". I'm looking for an actual exe right, not just a folder?

For the dialer thing, I found a Dialer that looked just like the Rhodium called "Tachi's Dialer" which I extracted from the CAB file. I did the same with FlipIt, and the ROM is practically flashing as we speak.

I'll get back to you tomorrow with the progress but, look into the 6.1 NK thing for me in the mean time.

Thanks again.
