I'm trying to get it back to closing menus not with the softkey, but rather with pressing the d-pad to the left. I'll give a rundown of my apps shortly. Thanks

Friguy have a look in the software forum--I'm almost positive that's where I got it from... either here or at xda.

I have been reading this tread, as well as other forums for about 4 hours trying to figure out how to solve some issues. First, the latest kitchen seems to gray out the two tabs of “Device” and “OS” in the main application window. In other words they cannot be selected at all. Clicking on the little arrow next to them does nothing. Has anyone else experienced this? Anyone have a solution?

chs,
They're grayed out because you can't use them. This kitchen is limited to WM6 on Apaches. No other devices or OS's supported. (Clearly the kitchen team has left open the option to ungray these as future devices/OS's become available. That would be cool.)

They gray because the kitchen you are using is WM6 for Apache only. If you had a kitchen that was not device specific or OS specific, they would ungray automatically. Fundamentaly, however, kitchens are always targetted to a specific device/os pair, so changing those values is not useful or advisable for 99.9% of users.

How can this be? A friend of mine has the exact same phone as me, running WM5, and was able to upgrade his phone with this latest kitchen. I thought this new kitchen upgraded to a variant of WM6. Does anyone have any suggestions? What kitchen could I use that is designed for my version -WM5?

[chs200123]

He is also able to use the tabs, and choose either WM5 or WM6. Apparently, he downloaded this kitchen prior to the one that was released on November 18th.

You misunderstand...

The "kitchen" is actually short for three pieces of software: BuildOS, which assembles ROMs for all kinds of devices/OSes; the kitchen SYS/OEM/ROM files, which are device and OS specific; and OEMs, which are generally not device specific.

You can load a WM6 Apache ROM on a WM5 Apache (because they're the same device), but you can't load an Apache ROM on a Titan, a wizard, a Q, or any other device.

In short, if you have the same device a ROM is designed for (like Apache or Titan), you can load it. That ROM will contain a specific OS - WM6 or WM5, currently - depending on which kitchen was used to build the ROM. If you had kitchen files for some other device/OS combination, BuildOS would be able to assemble a ROM for that device containing that OS. What buildOS can't do, and the comboboxes in the toolbar might have implied to some that it can do, is build a Titan rom from an Apache kitchen, or a WM5 rom from a WM6 kitchen.

Can anyone tell me how to make a sprint cab from the ArcSoft MMS ver 3.0.26.11c found in the PPCGEEKSOEM_Rar that I can try to install on a Mogul. I know these files come from an Alltel Titan, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks all!
