New BuildOS - Report Bugs Here

[zenak]

I doubt this is a bug, but this seems like the best place to ask: I have a few optional OEMs that allow for pre-install customizations by editing the RGU file. Whenever I modify this file I get an error. If I restore the file back to it's original state the error continues. The only way I have found to do a successful compile after the modification is to re copy the original rgu file.

importing registry file ".\Registry\166779e0-ca01-4aea-bb21-d72b93a86e0a.rgu"...
InitRegistry FAILED in file ".\Registry\166779e0-ca01-4aea-bb21-d72b93a86e0a.rgu" within a few lines of line 1.
ImportFromPackageListStrict: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed importing ".\Registry\166779e0-ca01-4aea-bb21-d72b93a86e0a.rgu"
wmain: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed building DEFAULT hives

Is this normal? Am I missing something simple?

This is from the Arcsoft MMS 4.2.8.1 - I was trying to add my phone # to the registry... The same thing seems to happen when I try to set the left soft key to MMS in that rgu file. Am I doing something wrong?

Well, I don't know what the problem with that is unless I can see the actual RGU. But I do know for a fact that any version of ArcsoftMMS above the version in the kitchen is for GSM devices only, and none of them will work on a CDMA phone. I you look in the MMS oem in kitchen, you'll see file or two with CDMA in it. If you look in that OEM, you'll see files with GSM in it.

So, if ur using a CDMA device, it's a no go anyway. It just simply will not send a picture message. Kitchen version is the newest CDMA version out.

Check your file size before any modification, and after modification. If it dropped roughly in half, it's because you didn't save it in unicode format (I'd like to know if this is the case, because BuildOS should be forcing it to unicode regardless of how you saved it).

Another possibility is that the last line of the rgu immediately prior is borked. BuildOS should be forcing an extra line on the end of the .rgu to avoid this issue.

But it say's within a few lines of 1.... Either way, waste of time if it's a cdma device...

Lenny - I got the 4.2 version here for Verizon: http://imnuts.hostedwith.us/?page_id=3 my only modification of that file was to add my number to the X-VzW-MDN key.

I'm using textpad to modify the rgu file and there doesn't seem to be a change in size - I've also tried notepad. Is there another app I should be using instead? Maybe that is the issue after all....

Zip and attach the RGU to your post for us to take a look at.

Honestly, I've never had to modify this string cuz the program itself has alway's written this string in for me. Most of the time, that string didn't exist at all in the RGU. And the program would add it on first boot. But seriously, this has been tested on several providers including Verizon, and does not send a MMS message at all on any of them. It will only receive. And yes I know Verizon is partial GSM or whatever. But to my knowledge, it just want send.

You're using the same Arcsoft MMS file I use. I downloaded the file from that site and added my number to the RGU file. I didn't have any issues building a ROM w/ it.
The directions on that site say to look for "1234567890" it actually should say "0123456789" because that's what's in the RGU file.
I used a program called Notepad2 to edit the file. http://www.flos-freeware.ch/notepad2.html
It's a much better alternative to Notepad.
I have no issues sending MMS on my XV6700.

Well damn... maybe it was 4.0 we tested on Verizon that didn't work... I dunno.. Anyway, Prob easier to install a reg editor, and make the change after you flash... But like I said before, I've always deleted that entry, and the program wrote a new one on first boot. That made it a universal OEM. If you notice, we didn't ask ppl to edit the one that is in the kitchen now. It does that edit for you automatically as well... On first boot... Same string...

Just saw your post. I believe I can receive MMS w/o any issues. I just sent a video MMS to myself, and received it no problem.
I don't have anyone else I can bug to send my a MMS message right now, but I assume that sending it to myself is enough. It actually goes through the process of sending, and then a message pops up that says receiving, and then another message when it's done dl'ing that I've received a new MMS message.
If someone else would like to test this, I can pm you my number and we can see if in fact it will receive mms from someone else.

BTW - This is the 2nd Arcsoft file that I have tried that fully works on Verizon in WM6.
