Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
rstoyguy:
Did you ever figure out why we are not able to "edit" this ROM to our suiting? I've followed directions exactly but when I go to re-flash, I am stuck at the PPCKitchen screen and must reflash back to OMJ's original ROM. Thanks for your help in all this. |
Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
I haven't really had a chance to look at it...I am reading what I can about the rom itself so when I get time on maybee sunday???? I will crank out a solution to the problem. Gotta be something with memory locations....The problem arose when:
1. I thought it was safe to release this... 2. The new altell rom+radio hit which screwed up my methods. Or if someone else knows why dogguy's kitchen can't handle the new rom's...feel free to share! |
Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
I'm a n00b at this and am just getting the hang of flashing. I just loaded Ghetto's ROM and will try your methods on it. Will let you know what happens. As far as trouble shooting goes. I can try out your suggestions but am not capable of coming up with solutions on my own at this point.

Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
It seems that if you use this method with any ROMs based on the new SPRINT ROM you will get stuck on the boot screen.
I've tried without changing anything in the ROM (just prepit, buildos, and builtit) then flashed and got stuck. Anyone else having the same issue? |
Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
ha ha ha lol the roms made with the ppcgeeks kitchen or any other kitchen other the the dogguy kitchen .... when you try to decompile them they will be missing the rgu files therefore creating "rom" bricks ........... the answer to this is to download the free ppcgeeks kitchen and ...... MAKE YOUR OWN ROM !!!!!!!!!!

Anyways folks, what I did was made a bare-bones rom from the ppckitchen, flashed it, then I was able to edit a BOOTABLE custom rom again. Here is the new base rom from old_man_jenkins that I used with the methods in the first & second posts and it worked fine. OMJ.WM6.1.GPS.Sprint.NEW.Custom.exe ...and rgu/dsm files are in tact... |

Honestly, there are a lot of reasons to use buildos v2 and not ppckitchen's buildos, but they don't seem to apply to you. You'd be better served using ppckitchen's kitchens and tools instead of beating your head against the wall. |

Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
I ran PrepIt.bat on NFSFAN's latest rom as I would like to customize further. After that finished, as a test I ran BuildOS.exe and then BuildIt.bat. Everything completed properly as far as I can tell.
When I flash this ROM, looks like everything is fine... but for some reason I can't get some applications to work (and yes, they work in the donor ROM). In this case, when I try to run the camera application it says: "The file 'Camera' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file." So, all I did was dump and recook... no changes. So I have no clue why the camera app is no longer working... Any ideas? :scratch: |

1. If they were cooked with the ppckitchen, this strips out the needed RGU files. 2. All methods take the initflashfiles.txt and append it to the initflashfiles.dat file located in ..\OEM\OEM_Lang_0409 folder. Somewhere there are some registry edits that also relax the security. But my bet is your missing the initflashfiles.txt file and files aren't getting copied to where they need to be. According to above, you didn't add anything? Just broke it down and reflashed? |
Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
this method will work for my ROM as i do not protect my work.

It's an old_man_jenkins base that has several OEM's from the new DIAMOND rom installed, and several ppcgeeks_oem.rar OEM's also installed. If you are having trouble with just the camera, delete "..\SYS\HTC Vogue Camera_5_07_30568_00" and search for a replacement camera OEM. I ran into the same today, tried to slide in the Diamonds camera into my rom. In the process I deleted all the files out of ..\OEM\OEMAPPS that make the camera go. For me, I clean out the recycle bin when doing something like that so if it doesn't work, i can get the original files back... Look for a replacement camera or ask in the ppckitchen thread why that version won't work, or look for tweaks to make it work. |

What I don't understand is if (assuming) the ROM is deconstructed properly and had no changes, then rebuilt... why wouldn't it work? Confusing to me. |

1. flashed rom, it worked. 2. took same rom, prepit.bat, buildos.exe, buildit.bat 3. flashed that same rom, no mods and the camera stopped? That's unusual if you didn't make any changes and it booted up fine... |

.hv reconstruction error: Failed to parse value name HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\Shared!!! InitRegistry FAILED in file ".\boot.rgu" within a few lines of line 11170. ... again, i made no changes to the entries. I just converted to text... added REGEDIT4 to the first line... saved as Unicode. Then tried to convert the .txt back to .hv. If you want to do the same with the v1.05 rom (decompile, recompile) i'll be willing to flash it to see if it's just me somehow. I don't see the certificate security errors in the original ROM, so I'm thinking this could really be a certificate issue. I was looking at the registry entries for the security policy which is why i got into the hive tools. Me---> :violent2: |

I could do up another tutorial on "adding your custom registry settings to a rom". If there is any interest.... edit: and it is probably hanging on a binary value with an odd number of values. if you add the oem and add your entries to it, it will get past that problem, with no issues... |

Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
I want to take NFSFAN's rom and update SqlCeMobile to SqlCeMobile35. This OEM is found in the vougue_WM6.1.rar\SYS not OEM. so what I did was replace SqlCeMobile with SqlCeMobile35 in the SYS folder under Kitchen. That was not in the instructions. I read that SqlCeMobile35 was needed to run skype. that is the only problem I had with NFSFAN's rom. I have a new nbh file, but being a n00b at this I am a bit paranoid about flashing it.
Has anyone tried something similair? |

Re: How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
This ROM is one built with the ppckitchen.org's kitchen. This rom won't flash & boot using the methods in this thread... But the answer to your problem...

The last package processed was "RC Mod" (your regedits???) And it failed on the setting your today keys...#112. Somewhere around line 25... Can you post the RGU contents of that OEM? As long as the guid is ffffffff-e444-4cd2-*? I can help you narrow it down.... |
