Post your UC ( User Customization ) !

SDAutorun needs the following underlined files to run:
your_provisioning.xml
sdconfig.txt
\windows\config.txt
\windows\AutoRun.exe
\windows\SDAutoRun.exe
Simply use notepad to create SDCONFIG.TXT and PROVISIONING.XML and let UC do the rest!
(Note: If your ROM is already UC compatible then it already has AutoRun.exe and SDAutoRun.exe,
if it doesn't then you can simply run SDAutoRun.exe from anywhere on your device and it should launch AutoRun.exe (which should already be in the \windows directory on your device, if not then get it and place a copy there)
If it's not a hard reset then make sure that [HKLM\Comm\SDAutoRunFlag] is set to 0
You can these two exe files at the Chef's UC thread here.
Be sure to check out the User's UC thread here.

Note: For binary values I'd recommend using RapiConfig! Simply customize your device first, fill in the query input file, connect your PPC to PC via ActiveSync and run RapiConfig on your PC. It will export the queried binary values into the output file. You can get RapiCnfig here.

Example of an sdconfig.txt file set to load an xml:

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

NICE!

Can i get more details on how I do this myself?

EDIT:

I took a stab at it, I think it should be working pretty well. After seeing your examples it really helped me a lot.

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

thanks for this. i modified your vogueprovisioning.xml to my preferences, and then ran UC, but it didn't make any changes that i can see.

here's me xml file:
and here's my sdconfig.txt
any ideas?

thanks!

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

nokry56,

Those lines with (parenthesis) do not belong in the xml file.

One mistake will kill the whole process so be careful. One time I was stumped by this lost mistake:It took me some time to realize it should be HKLM!

Anyways, I have updated my posts. Gluck!

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

Brilliant!! I kinda wanted to port this over much the way you've done but 1) that was overwhelming work in and of itself. and 2) i didnt want to have to field the millions of questions that i couldnt fully answer! lol

I vote that this should become an immediate STICKY in each device's Upgrade forums!

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

Yes it's overwhelming indeed, which is why I have been flashing for some time without this done. Now that it is done it only takes 2 minutes to FULLY customize my device compared to 2 hours before UC!

I can't get rid of that poll, but the mods should help us out.

Maybe you can post your Titan regedits for other Titan users!

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

How did this fall down this low?

This needs to be stickied.

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

I totally agree!!

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

This is my UC..


I don't use SDAutoRun anymore since I now cook my XML into my ROM by basically creating an OEM with most of my XML.

The entries that didn't work were installed by an Initial_Boot_Provisioning.XML with AutoRun.exe.

The initial configuration is quick.

For wallpapers I cooked a custom background into the ROM and use AutoRun to execute custsk.exe.

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

That would be sweet!

I'm happy enough to have helped at least one person.

:drunken:

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

It helped a ton. Cause I could spend hours and hours to get my device ready. Now it does it for me!

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

How can I enter the owner's info in the BASE 64 bit or whatever format is required?

I'm stuck!!!

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

Alright, I've got most of my UC to work, but there are a couple of pieces that still don't seem to want to cooperate.

1) I have the following code to set the BattSuspendTimeout and it appears to work fine if I run the .CAB file I create with it from File Explorer on the device. The problem is that when I place the .CAB file in the persistant memory and allow the device to autorun this file the BattSuspendTimeout does not get set. Do I need to set another registry entry for this to work with autorun?

<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\ Timeouts">
<parm name="BattSuspendTimeout" value="300" datatype="integer"/>
<parm name="ACSuspendTimeout" value="1800" datatype="integer"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

2) When I try and set the Work URL Exceptions the exception URL nevers gets added to the list. The .CAB file says that it installed successfully, but when I look at the Work URL Exceptions there is nothing there. I can do this programmatically throught my VB.net code, but I would rather do this at the UC so that I don't have to worry about setup tasks in my applications code.

<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="CM_Mappings">
<characteristic type="1000">
<parm name="pattern" value="*://*.bigsimo.com/*" />
<parm name="network" value="{18AD9FBD-F716-ACB6-FD8A-1965DB95B814}" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

Any suggestions would be appreciated. It's the last couple tweaks in a long list that I've got working and they are really starting to frustrate me.

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

Okay, can someone explain who I can turn the XXXXXX's which will represent my personal info into a binary format please.

<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKCU\ControlPanel\Owner">
<parm name="Owner" datatype="binary" value="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"/>
<parm name="Name" datatype="string" value="John Doe"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

This is from the FIRST POST:

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

1. I noticed there is a space before 'Timeouts' which could either be your problem or a typo in the post. Why use cab instead of xml?
2. Do you see the registry change afterwards?

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

Thanks, but where is the query input file?

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

ah, stupid mistake on my part. i do have another question. is it possible to copy entire directories?

for instance can i copy everything from /Storage Card/ringtones to /windows/rings with one command?

or do i have to copy each file individually?

Re: User Customization Starter's Package!
 

I have not been able to copy entire directories. I've had to copy each file one by one. Maybe somebody else has I'm not sure.

mousio's AutoRun
 

Please take a look at my AutoRun stuff, it uses mortscript's xcopy command to copy files/folders, but does more than that:
now I rarely need to change my SDConfig file anymore and I just drop all of my AutoRun stuff (cab/mscr/zip/reg/xml files and also regular files and folders) in a dedicated folder, it's that easy! :cool:

Re: mousio's AutoRun
 

Looks intriguing!

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

I got along very well with the UC, got all the programs installed but when the provisioning comes through it doesn't seem to work. I followed the steps in the XDA thread to find out if it was erroring out due to a <tag> issue and fixed those. When I convert it to a cab to test it out I get an error saying that it doesn't have proper permissions. Could that be the case with the autorun or just the cab?

I'll post it below with the key data points redacted (password,etc)

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

I'll post the updated one later, but it looks like after MUCH trial and error and beautiful discovery of CPY1 and CPY2 I have got this sucker working. I LOVE UC!

Now if I can find a way for it to take my PIMbackup and auto restore the most recent one...that'd be hot.

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

That's where I'm at!

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

anyone know if there is anyway to have UC resigter your programs that you are installing from a cab? I have the registration numbers.. For example, if I am installing SPB Phone Suite, is there a way to have UC enter the registration information? Just looking to not have to re-enter registration numbers after each flash.

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

For Resco Explorer, I copy in my own /windows/wmtrigger.dat

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

Good thread..
Some questions:

1) I have always in the past used tiermann's OEMizer to integrate my provXML settings. Now I know there are two types of provXML - one that runs every boot (mxipUpdate), and one that only runs on hard reset/initial boot(mxip). How do I know which type of provXML I should use for a given reg edit?

2) How do I cook an mxip or mxipupdate provxml into a rom without using OEMizer? Just have the files copied to \windows??

3) Here's my provXML (mxip I guess, because I believe that's what OEMizer creates it as.)....Can someone please tell me what the function of the line " translation="filesystem" " is? I see a lot of people post provXML's which do not have this line in their regedits..

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

**EDIT - fixed problem.. My rom was not UC comptaible, but I was able to run the script after a fresh install simply by running the SDAutoRun.exe..

I have read through the threads and want to know if anyone can assist me in making my rom UC compatible.. It is a custom rom (not made by me) I can PrepIt and create the SYS, OEM, and ROM directories, but I do not know how to add the necessary files to the /windows directory..

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

Oh! It's very good. Thank you.

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

Hey......anyone home? I got a quick question about UC? Its an easy one....I think ;)

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

Yep! Check out xcopyce: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418417

Works like a charm, but it can ONLY copy directories, not individual files. For individual files just use CPY1/CPY2.

Re: Post Your UC User Customization!
 

Updated first post with my new provisioning xml and config.txt for my Sprint Touch Pro. Also attached an OEM containing the needed files. Just thought I'd share.
