I tried to choose another theme but the could not because it had me search on storage card for theme files. Would not show windows folder to choose theme. Sorry I forgot to put thatinfo into other post. I did remove the ringtones I added and almost everything else. I had the very bare minimum check to add and it still did not work.

Did you include the "Additional Themes" OEM? If so that could be the culprit--especially if you deleted the HTC_default.tsk file but did not change the rgu file (which is pre-set to try to load that tsk as the default).

And those of you having space issues in general should check to see if you're including the Additional_Ringtones, Additional_Themes, and Addtional_Sounds OEMs. If so you should really go into each of those folders (they are in User_OEM) and delete out the things you won't use.

By default:

Additional Themes is 1.08MB
Additional Ringtones is 332KB
Additional Sounds is 227KB

The themes one especially could/should be pared down--there are a lot of themes on there, and frankly you can store all the themes you're not currently using on your SD card. IMHO, themes in a ROM are kind of a waste of space.

The benefit of that additional_themes OEM though is that it will set a theme up for you as the default if you put that theme's file name into the rgu file (open it up--you'll see where it goes).

Great explanation. I don't think I changed the theme or deleted the HTC theme. However, I did include the additional themes in my build. I will have to search to learn about the rgu file change thing because I have no clue what that means. Still a newbie sorta. I'm a flash and go kinda person. You guys have taight me a lot but I still have a lot to learn.

Is it possible to find out how large the files are so that the questions about the size of OEMs are not asked so much and the chances of me overbuilding my ROM are reduced? Can this be done buy unrar of the additional_OEM.rar and checking properties?(of course I would copy and paste to another location so I don't have to download rar again.)

You can get an idea of relative size by that technique, but that's it. The actual size is much harder to determine.
