Will an extROM from an older ROM build work here? (I'd like to dig up my old PPCGeeks extROM.)

One major benefit of the forum conversion from phpBB to vBulletin is the enhanced search feature. It works much better than phpBB's search.

Anyway, here's the link:

Also If i use the sprint update will I have to input the sprint information again after the update(i.e. account info to get back on the sprint network again.)?

The carrier customizations are built in, so you won't have to add the #777 and stuff after flashing. If you don't already have a blank ext rom, I suppose you'll want to soft reset when you see "Customizing in 3..2..1" to prevent the ext rom customizations from mucking things up.

When I flashed, the ext rom was unlocked.

If you want to lock the ext rom after, just edit the dword below from 0 to 1 and soft reset:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ TRUEFFS_DOC1]
"MountHidden"=dword:00000001

Yup, that's a WM6 "feature" - thank M$ for that.

Until a kitchen is released, I suppose you have two options:

1) Build a cab from the oem
2) Google each program name and find the original cabs (not sure if you'll find the cingular one though...

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...ome+customizer

While I thank you for the link, I obviously wasn't being clear. I know where the customizer is within the forum. (And I have the installer and OEM.)
I was looking for it on my device, since an earlier poster had mentioned that they had used it.
I read the directions for how to use it, but it's not showing up on my programs or settings list.

Like the GUI
defintely like the improvement in messaging (html mail and what not)
don't think i'm going to buy resco explorer (file explorer is much improved)

-missing the little taskbar with the comm manager and screen rotate icons, etc (how do we bring that back)

Edit the dword values in the following keys from 0 to 1 and soft reset.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SERVICES\SCREENROTATE]
"ShowIcon"=dword:1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]
"Keep"=dword:1

Ah, sorry about that :) I installed the HHCv08b.cab to my storage card and the link to the program shows up in Programs as HTC Home Customizer.

<edit>
Oh, and the carrier customizations are built right in, so a blank ext rom will be fine (that's what I have.) You can dload it here if you don't already have it:

QUESTION: Application updates/removal (ie. DEEPFISH)
 
With this ROM, can I remove an app, or update it?

Example: I don't want DEEPFISH there wasting space, as it's pretty useless since it's a demo that's stripped of a lot of functionality. What happens when the final is released and I install that, will I have 2 (on in ROM, one in RAM Program space?)

Please review the first post. Helmi has provided step-by-step instructions on how to flash his rom.
