extract, insert file, rebase, rebuild, insert back into rom. Probably a bit advanced for you.

BTW, this is probably a pointless and slightly detrimental change for Diamond/Touch Pro devices. You should really only be considering it if you have an older device like the apache.

Ok, well, I extracted the xip.bin from the os.nb.payload using xipporterex, then dumped it using xipport, replaced the cecompr.dll, built xip_out.bin, then used xippoterex to write it back to the os.nb.payload. Didn't boot. Where did I go wrong here? Thanks for your help.

So will the LZX compression not give more storage memory if done right?

Sorry, at xda I havn't answered, cos I thought that you've already done the aboves...
In my oppinion this is the right way as you wrote (os.nb-os.nb.payload-xip.bin-oemxipkernel-change cecompr.dll-xip.new.bin-os.nb.payload) BUT, don't forget to edit your imgfs.bin or the payload file at the beginning of the imgfs signature, changing XPR to LPX ;)

Than it should boot...
And you'll gain cca. 10 mbs.

Did you rebase?

It will. On diamond/touchpro, you should not be in short supply of storage memory, however.

How do you rebase? The sprint diamond doesn't have much storage memory... even my vogue had much more (had to scrimp and cut stuff to get 50mb with my 6.5 rom)

I think that LZX compression is no good for people that has 200MHz processor.
In my opinion, what you get from free space does not worth the decrease of speed, has LZX is slower that XPR.

I've tried in my love, and quickly got back do XPR.
Or i whould had to increase my PP, wich is out of my todo list... :D

Yeah, LZX would blow on slower processors. Increasing pagepool would not have helped.

No compression is probably best on the really slow machines, assuming they can take the storage hit.

What diamond do you have? The vogue has 128MB of flash, the Diamond has 256MB. There is no way in hell you can cram as much on a vogue as you can on a diamond.

I had the sprint version of vogue, sprint diamond as well. My vogue had 256mb ROM, same as the diamond. Maybe it's the greater file size of VGA graphics? Either way, I had about 100mb of program memory to work with after a flash vs the 50-75mb i have with the diamond

Oh yeah, the cdma vogue has 256MB. You would have more storage with it. Still, I'm suprised you're feeling the space crunch. Maybe I'm just used to the Apache :)

Coming from a Mogul myself... I feel like I have tons of space on my Diamond.

Re: WM 6.5 Kitchen QVGA and VGA Developer Edition
 
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing games to give out of memory errors? With almost every custom rom I've tried, including ones I've baked with various pagepool sizes, certain games always give out of memory errors before they even start up but work fine on the stock rom. What is it about the memory management or allocation that's causing this?

Hey guys... have you noticed that removing honeycomb's cpr files gives you honeycomb switched off - AND not loaded, giving you this way around 2MB of free RAM? :D Just switch to QuickMenu and you're done :)
Just one thing to check is battery usage - it MAY BE that shell enters an infinite loop trying to load this thing and eats up our battery... I'll try to modify shell so it weren't doing that.

Ah... I see. Any ideas which DPI_96 file it is? I think I did the conversion from the Chinese leak, so maybe a *_Lang_0409_DPI_96 folder from 21500 overwrote the Chinese version of the folder.

Code:

; X does not take up 2 spaces, can click battery icon (set LimitedClock to 0 for double wide x)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskBar]
"LimitedClock"=dword:1
"ConsistentClockOrBattery"=dword:0

Yes, I noticed that this does fix that issue, and it allows the battery to be selectable (as I had mentioned in March):
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...postcount=1896

However, if you have it this way then the volume dialog is off too far to the right in the programs menu:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...postcount=2986

The reason for that is that the battery icon does not appear in the non-Today screens, thus the volume control dialog moves to the right.

I had set ConsistentClockOrBattery = 1 to allow the battery to appear in the non-Today screens, thus fixing the volume dialog issue, but then the X-button issue appears...


So here's the dilemma:

1) Fix the X-button issue, and the volume control dialog is too far to the right when it's not in the home screen:

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskBar]
"LimitedClock"=dword:1
"ConsistentClockOrBattery"=dword:0

2) Fix the volume control dialog issue, and the X-button issue appears (and battery icon is not selectable to launch Power settings):

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskBar]
 "LimitedClock"=dword:1
 "ConsistentClockOrBattery"=dword:1

(Even though the battery icon is not selectable, you can use a custom battery icon w/ percentage so that you don't have to worry about launching the Power settings to see the battery power).




EDIT: Hmm. actually this seems to work, LOL:

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskBar]
"LimitedClock"=dword:0
"ConsistentClockOrBattery"=dword:0

This shows the clock in the non-Today screen and allows the volume control dialog to be placed correctly.

Alright folks, as you all know it's been pretty boring, no new leaks yet. I did some bit of customization as a way of keeping me occupied, just some tweaks on the Titanium to give a custom look.

Want to share these. Attached below are the bronzeres.dll, replace the bronzeres.dll in your bronze_DPI_96 folder with any of the three you prefer, and there you go.
If you are using the neon yellow, you might need to edit your titanium to reduce its size, as it is a bit on the large side. So on the fourth line of your titanium you have this:
<Layer ID="Focus" Width="240" Height="82" Clip="False">

If you reduce the height to "70" it should be okay.
If you like any of these let me feel you.

Well, it gives us a chance to work on the stability of our ROMs, rather than swapping out build after build ;-) I know that these 2 weeks have made my ROM much better :)

Re: WM 6.5 Kitchen QVGA and VGA Developer Edition
 
Ok, I guess while we are waiting, maybe I can get some pointers on this issue I am having. I cooked up a few ROMs for my new Touch Pro with 21501. They ALL boot the first time, but so far the only ROM to survice a reboot/soft reset was a totally clean ROM, meaning base SYS and absolutely nothing else. Anyone have an idea of what direction I can look? Like, what kind of OEM could be causing that???

Here is what me and Da_G have figured out so far (mainly Da_G, So thank him for it)

Updated Flashlite, Updated PIE, No Time Bomb Code at all, No test Certifates in the DSM.
Welcome Center is updated.

Still early but going through other changes now.
