Wow. This package in unbelievable. I'm having a blast trying every last option available. Here's my question - what program do I have to unselect to allow me to choose the O2 today plug-ins? They are currently grayed out and I'd love to give them a go.

Also, I'm assuming it's not possible to have Email settings, owner information, Sound and alert preferences, etc...automatically populated. Is that a safe assumption?

Sounds like you have O2 Plus selected--that contains the whole package so that's why you see the individual items greyed out. Sorry that probably wasn't made clear enough in the OEM descriptions.

As for your other question, check out the tiermann's excellent OEMizer application in the \Tools folder of the kitchen.

Thanks LUV2Chill. Here's the weird thing. I DO have O2 plus selected but it doesn't actually show up under "programs" or as a "Today" plug-in. The other issue is that I can't unselect the "O2 plus to Select the other O2 options. Weird!

Thanks for the tip on the OEMizer. I'm grabbing that in a moment.

One awesome thing I noticed is that the Date/Time on the Today plug-in is automatically on one line. Nice work! Much better than using Today Time or LVM Time.

Any Know Where I Can Get An OEM For This Kitchen With PHM Registry Editor

Schwartz - No need - a very good editor (seems to be the consensus-preferred freeware) comes with dotfred's task manager (in the utilities section of BuildOS).

But Will It Cause Problems If I Prefer To Use HTC Task Manager?

No, even though dotfred's app is called Task Manager it does not really do the same things as HTC Task Manager and the other task-closing/x-button apps. It does a lot more than just registry (though I use it primarily as a reg editor) and is just an overall "must have" app IMHO.

Yes I had a look through the verizon 3.3 cabs and added anything that was relevant (almost nothing) to the verizon extrom OEM in the kitchen. I didn't increment the version number because, well I forgot

. I'll do that for the next release but for now rest assured that the verizon OEM is up to date.

I held off on including Arcsoft 4 until we get a well-tested fully working OEM. Even then it will only be offered for Verizon users (does not work for Sprint or Alltel). If anyone wants to proceed with that, go right head.

Please post what version of the bootloader you're running. Also try eliminating anything in between your PC and Apache (hubs, extension cables, etc) and try a different USB port on your PC.

Try putting the phone in bootloader mode first, then connect to the PC and run the RUU. Also, try both the standard RUU and the NoID one (definitely ensure you're in bootloader mode before using the latter).
