Any ideas?

Note that if you save your kitchen selections to a file other than the default file called Apache_Helmi_WM6 Selections.txt, when you restart PPC-BuildOS from the desktop icon, you will continue to get that error. The reason is that the default Helmi selections doesn't have a carrier selection and the desktop shortcut always starts up telling PPC-BuildOS to load that selections file.

I save my selections to my own file and then just edited the desktop icon shortcut to replace the parameter pointing to the helmi file with my own file. That way I don't have to keep opening my file from the menu.

Of course, if you just save your selections in the default helmi file after you've done a carrier selection, you shouldn't be getting this error.

i do have a quick question though and i'm not sure if this is the correct forum for it, but i wanted to know if there is a cab for MSN email without us having to use the whole window's live program? i would like to know before i re do my rom with the window live program. i'm not interested in having window live cus i don't use it. i only use the msn hotmail email. thanks again

I tried searching for this, but haven't seen an answer. I was previously running VZG WM6 and used FdcSoft PIM Backup to backup my contacts, sms, etc.

Upon restoring with this new kitchen, it says it restored 154 messages successfully. But there are no messages to be found. Would this have to do with the new Arcsoft MMS?

Are you sure you backedup/restored your MMS messages and not just your SMS messages?

I backed up everything. Neither my SMS or MMS show up.

In the About section in BuildOS the url for PPCGeeks is listed as PPC-Geeks.com instead of ppcgeeks.com. PPC-geeks.com takes u to an ad site.

Really small nit...
In the build status, after completing the registry imports, when it is "Preparing ROM", the line reporting where it found the IMGFS start is found looks like it has an extra character ("null?") appended to the output. SO on mine, it reports: "Found at 00640000" with an odd rectangular box after the last 0.

I have never had any luck with restoring messages. The MMS will show up but when you click the they don't play. All the files are missing when you click objects as well. I did click only to restore messages.
