:!: Optional_Additional_Ringtones

Many of the ringtones are missing the space at the end of their name that allows them to be selected ("Digital01.wav" instead of "Digital01 .wav"). To correct for this...

Digital01.wav
Flight of the bumblebee.wma
Mozart Alla Turca.wma
Pizzi-cato Polka.wma
Pour Elise.wma
Ringer 1.wma
Ringer 4.wma
Telephone ring 2.wma
Telephone ring 3.wma

You will then also need to add the space to the ringtone list in the RGU inside that folder (e54c0e41-3f65-4d9f-b104-4245cc434a86.rgu)

:!: Optional_HTC Home Plugin(WM5) (Non-functional Battery icon)

The green battery icon in the "HTC Today" plug-in is broken. Using it results in the error "The file 'powerexe' cannot be opened..."

To correct for this create a copy of Power.exe named Powerexe.exe.

A post-flash patch is available below.

Add this registry key to the "55a93e0b-55c3-4469-ac37-aca9ad6b5dd4.rgu" file

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr\LaunchApplet]

"AppletName"="CommManager.exe"

This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Some one posted how this could be a Vista thing but I'm running XP Pro.

Any ideas on what this might be?

There will be a better fix soon.

:!: Time Synchronization

Due to missing files from the Verizon customizations time synchronization won't sync to the carrier provided time.

Even with the appropriate files loaded one must reselect ones timezone post the initial selection in order for the time to align with your timezone.

:!: Optional_HTC_Audio_Manager Size Reduction:

The images in the "Optional_HTC_Audio_Manager" OEM are all unnecessarily encoded as 32bit PNGs. They can be losslessly encoded as 24/8bit PNGs. The patch below provides updated files that save 401k.

Thanks Kolano--I was hoping you'd be willing to carry the torch for this kitchen as well. Great service :)

I am aware of the Home Plugin issue and will fix in the next release. For now you can either copy the existing power.exe, rename to powerexe.exe and paste back into \Windows (meaning you will have both power.exe and powerexe.exe). Or you can download this zip file and copy both files inside it to \Windows.

Col posted the fix for the Wireless Manager taskbar icon issue.

Fix CommManager issue

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr\LaunchApplet] 

"AppletName"="CommManager.exe"

Any word on the streaming of Xm from there site. It doesn't work for me 3.3.1 broke it but i haven't had a chance to see what they did with .asx and or wmplayer. With stock verizon rom it works as intended (weird) was hoping you guys (freaking Brilliant) would have had a fix for it in your newest Kitchen build...... Thanks for all your hard work.

My vx6700 has never run better....!

Hello guys,

I'm having reboot issues. It takes 4 and 5 times to get it to come up correctly. I'll make a clean rom and try that. I use all of the spb stuff. spb+, diary and shell in the rom and the rest in the ext rom that I have installed after.

One thing I have noticed is that when I went from ver. 1.0.0 to 1.0.1 that i get an error for voice commander when you boot. Not sure what could be causing it. I picked the same OEM's on both kitchens.

@Scottishwarrior - Voice Command is not a free program. You need to copy in the exe file to the proper OEM folder before building your ROM.

@peacock93 - Yes SPB apps can cause some of that, esp diary. I think diary works better if turn off the auto-sizing option and make it a fixed size.

thanks luv2chill!!! i'll let u know what happens.

ok, i just left spb shell in my rom and installed the rest of them in my ext. rom after a hard rest. everything seems to work fine now. i'm not sure which one was causing the conflict. when i have time i'll try loading each one back into my cooked rom one at a time to see if i can narrow it down.
