6800bound,
be sure to hard reset after flashing, then do not allow your verizon customizations to run. (Soft reset during the countdown, after you set your clock.)

Hopefully, not.

My goal is to not have duplicate copies of the sound files on the device (except for sound files that I want access to from different programs like Alarms, which appear to be located by default in the Windows folder of the device).

Yes and no - if you look into that rgu file in the additional rintones folder you'll see where to add your rigntone file names. Yes, they will be in the windows directory, Yes, they will be able to be used as ringtones, even though they are not in the my ringones directory, No, they will not take up any space on the internal memory, since they are in ROM. You don't need duplicates in any other directories, as they will work just fine in the Windows directory.

NO, this will not work on touch.. this is for the Apache only.

All files baked into the ROM are in /windows, by definition. If you want ringtones/themes somewhere else, you shouldn't bake them into your rom.

Just wanted to say how freakin' impressed I am with this kitchen and the rom it genereated. The phone is so much better than it's ever been. I really like how well the remote desktop works. I can finally run a complex web based program I have to use for work by remoting to my desktop. Sprint TV is a very nice bonus too.

Thanks again to Helmi_C and the PPCGeeks developers,

Rob

Huh? When I run the Helmi_WM6_Apache_Kitchen_071117_1.exe file it installs (unpacks) an entire directory structure with C:\BuildOS as the (default) root of that directory structure.

Inside that root directory it creates several sub-directories (Apache_Helmi_WM6, BuildOS, Help & Support Files, Tools, SplashImages, Patches, Upgrade, User_OEM, etc.)

Where in this directory structure should the PPCGeeks_OEM.rar file be copied/saved? In C:\BuildOS? In C:\BuildOS\BuildOS? In some other directory?

Sorry, but I'm (obviously) confused. I understand the whole concept of the Kitchen, but I've never tried using one before....

Thanks for helping out a n00b...
