The settings widget is blank? Which skin? On the one I uploaded yesterday,

I just downloaded it and it's there.... If your talking about a m2d theme, today I'll write up a tutorial on how to "Frankenstein" your own m2d theme with what you've got...Also, make sure your not overwriting HTCHomeSettings.xml anywhere. This file would prevent that.


there are about 22 duplicates with a regular build in the ppckitchen. These are mostly files from HTC, and in dogguy's kitchen, most will reside in ..\OEM\OEMAPPS. I'm not sure what the xda fella's patched to make manila2d work, so I left them in.

How-To create your own theme for my m2d megapack

..................thru............................ ....
ca749e48-9ef9-4e2b-8359-304100281819

The above GUIDs are used within this MegaPack. 800 is the main OEM, and 801 - 819 are in use by what I have already. So come up with a unique number say starting at 850 - 899 if you are compelled to share yours with the community. I encourage sharing! :)

HTCHomeSettings.xml - diplay settings
hh_*.* - Theme files.
Theme.m2dct - A zip archive containing a M2D Customizer Theme.


Here's how to:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
1. Copy one of my premade themes to a different directory and rename it. You want to rename both the directory name and the name inside the OEM's option.xml
<Item name="MegaPack_Manilla2d_Skin1_OriginalBlack" group="Apps_rstg_M2D" checked="True">


2. Rename the 3 GUID's to 850 +.
--a - DSM file
--b - RGU file
--c - Inside option.xml file for buildos
<Guid type="p">ca749e48-9ef9-4e2b-8359-304100281801</Guid>

The last three numbers is all you want to change here....Remember the GUID notes above, and yes, THEY ALL MUST BE THE SAME GUID!

3. Take your existing theme and copy just the hh_*.* files into the OEM and overwrite any duplicates.

4. DO NOT COPY THE FILE HTCHomeSettings.xml. I used the same one for all these themes and a few others I have and it works just fine! This is in most of the M2D Customizer themes, but they are incomplete, as the customizer just imports portions of this file!!!!



How to process .m2dct Files
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
m2d_Theme.m2dct - M2D Customizer Theme
To process these type of themes:
1. Rename file to m2d_Theme.zip (yep, it's just a regular ol' archive)
2. Unarchive normally to it's own directory.
3. Now copy all the hh_*.* files into your new OEM.
--Remember to skip the HTCHomeSettings.xml file!!!
-- You can also skip the preview.jpg file, it's there for M2DC.

Notes & Comments
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
This has worked on all themes I have seen, I do not guarantee this to work on all themes. So if you have a theme that you have been using for a while and it is not compatible with M2DC, now it is.

I'll clean up this post over the next couple days to add more accurate content and link to it so it can be found later in life.

RS, kind of in a bind here. I want to build with the newest M2DCongfigure, but the older version is included in the oem pack. Got any oem's of the newest M2D build without M2DConfig added in?

Re: Custom OEM Requests ...Get them here! Updated: 10/21/08
 

It already contains:
If you want the latest version delete any m2dc-*.* files out of the main OEM and include your newer OEM with the build. I updated it a couple days ago with the v0.17.xxxx version, so you may want to download it again...Is there a newer one out?

Re: Custom OEM Requests ...Get them here! Updated: 10/21/08
 

Ha, I wasn't aware you updated. Thanks man, you save me once more!

Hey rstoyguy,

How are ya? In the above quote, what "alarm bug fix" are you referring to and what is the fix? I've recently been having my alarm not go off intermittently since my last flash. I just downloaded this OEM to take a look at the .rgu in it to see if i notice anything in it.

Thanks buddy,

Vancer

Re: Custom OEM Requests ...Get them here! Updated: 10/08/08
 

The "bug" was a couple of registry edits. Something to do with a time intervals if I remember right. They are included in the RGU. But yeah, stock or with ppckitchen, I can get my phone to wake up, but the alarm won't sound. Really haven't looked into it, and I haven't played with galarm enough to include it in my rom. It did work though. I had to dig at galarms website to find the "bug" and include it...if I remember right. Forgot my "don't-forget-it" alzheimer pills today. :)

Re: Custom OEM Requests ...Get them here! Updated: 10/08/08
 

LOL,

Do you remember if the fix was this reg in the .rgu...?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\Timeouts]
"BattResumingSuspendTimeout"=dword:00000078
"ACResumingSuspendTimeout"=dword:00000078

... and if so, would this reg fix the bug if I'm having it with the stock alarm?

My dword value is set to 5 right now and i'm not using this galarm.

Re: Custom OEM Requests ...Get them here! Updated: 10/08/08
 

All I can say is try it...And I did. And it worked!!! Thanks for bringing that up. And the decimal value for the above is 120. I'm gonna add that to my rom registry edits. Who needs pills when you have vancer to help ya remember!

Re: Custom OEM Requests ...Get them here! Updated: 10/08/08
 

Too funny,

Hey just found something else that i feel kinda like a jackass for not thinking of this...

The problem only seems to occur when the damn thing is plugged in overnight which is indicative of the reg edit having to do with suspend resuming, so....

The fix i found said to simply go into the advanced power settings and uncheck the "turn off in xx mins" when on external power. Of course i haven't been back to bed and slept overnight yet today (hehe) to try it out but it sure makes sense that it would work. Who needs the damn thing to suspend anyway when it''s pluged into a charger!! (screen still goes blank anyhow)

Why didn't we think of that!!! hehe
