This is Brilliant! You have done a great job with this. It works great for me with no problems so far. Thank you for making this pre-kitchen. I look forward to what you come out with next. I plan to donate but in the mean time I got to your web page and visit all of the adsense links on the right side everyday.

I was using the theme installer to install the F1 clear themes (clear buttons, widgets, keyboard, and see-thru notify). In the process, I lost three 3 HTC widgets that I kinda like, which are the calendar, weather, and music widgets. They're no longer an option to add to the home screen. This may have more to do with the actual themes than the kitchen, but I thought I'd get your opinion on how to get those back. My plan was to pull the apk's from the rom and use htc sync to install them back, but for some reason the sync is saying I'm disconnected. And it's late and I gotta go to bed. So, I'll work on that tomorrow.

Bump for bug fix. This should also resolve the issue people were having with installing the clear theme. Check page 1.

I was just thinking about making a video walk through. but in reality you run the program and click root. That's about it. If it doesn't work for some reason (like you are missing drivers) then it won't brick your phone, it just won't root it. The program itself will pretty much walk you through it.
