As for me the only two things you could remove are Office and VoIP, but it depends on what you're using your PDA for. As for me it's a phone and mobile office.
If you want to cook your own ROM, just cook it. I said some time ago that I'll release my own, too, but only when I get it really full working. Besides... if you want to, you could wait a bit more, I'm preparing a kitchen with Anichillus.
OK... back to Platform Builder

Gud luck preparin the kitchen...Yeah probably..will chk the dump at nite

Hi,
Add: Shutdown soft, PIM Backup soft, Speakerphone, IM+ or Agile messenger, some *.tsk and rings
Remove: VoIP, Messenger, Windows Live.

but that would make it a less clean version
it would just make it a version which had the software you
like included

Yeah Rudegear is rite..I checked out the dump..Only Ms word.ppt,exel,onenote and more can be removed.

How about creating a list of possible in/excludes with some additional info per item what it would eat in ROM space, if it eats RAM, clock ticks, battery life, clutters registry and so on. Then we can all just vote:
1 in, 2 out, 3 in, 4 in and so on. If lots of us would vote you could just add up the average wish list and bake the most popular ROM ever.
I believe I'd love to see a ROM with Word, Excell, PPT left out. The 3D Cube flash Touchflo clone looks like an appealing replacement for that space, but only if it's stable, doesn't drain my battery and doesn't slow my Hima down.
I agree that that would make it far from a clean ROM, but for me a "clean" ROM is one that doesn't come full of stuff I never use. IMHO you can also throw out the standard games, sample pictures and such crap. But tiny tools and utilities like a registry editor, over/underclocker, personal data backupper in in in please.

I believe that ^^rac tried to use the original HTC TouchFlo. And I believe that will only run smoothly on Hima with a rewritten Hima dll driver.
But there is also a clone Touchflo around that uses no dll, see

Touchflo-less "Clean ROM" with Biotouch

I'm thinking about two things. I dont really use touchflo, but i want a rom thats not program filled, like the stock ones. Touch-IT and PDAViet are sort of fulfilling in this sense, but they include touchflo.
I would be looking for a rom without ANY extra programs, but WITH biotouch (the finger scrolling thing)
Is this possible?

I agree. The cube is nice visually, but it's really kind of pointless.

concur. Maybe we can get somebody of higher knowledge to make us a wing rom with the specified modifications "cough*Itje*cough*. No pressure though.

If you have a wing like me, you can try the following.
Just an idea, but what about installing the t-mobile rom with just touchflo.
Which does not have all of the extra apps, then go to TF setting and disable all except for Enable Scroll.

Actually, i need the RAM AND the memory that is being taken over by touchflo. Biotouch is useful as hell, but touchflo, even when installed, takes up space. Also, other apps still run in the background. A fully optimized one would run no other apps in the RAM other than those required to function + Biotouch.

AFAIK this should not be that difficult, you should be able to seperate biotouch files from the HTC_touchflo oem. Drop a line to PDAViets Tom Codon (he is is the one that created the touchflo oem for cooks) and ask him what the situation is, I am sure he will be glad to help you with a file list that is associated with biotouch. After that it is simple as running a kitchen once and just dropping in the files.Get a list of associated files and I could cook one for you...but I wouldn't take my time with it like itje does, I would just add that and thats it. There is much to be done other than that, mainly registry setting and a clean up of the rom. Should consider checking out the hypercore kitchen thread, it is very easy once you get the hang of it, just very time consuming.
edit:just checked out the oem and most of the files say biotouch before it, the only ones I am not sure about but I think you should include are the.brn files...anyone care to comment on the use of these files
also here is a link for anyone interested in the oem

that would be nice I never use the cube myself, a vanilla bare bone rom is what I am looking for just like what anichilus did for the wizard I actually started cooking one 2 days ago but I could not get the kitchen to work and the fact that I never cooked a rom does not help much, but a rom based on the T-mo one without any T-mo stuff and all the extra Micro$oft crap and a few basic tweaks would be fantastic I will just keep dreaming for now, I am using the touch-it light I removed most T-mo stuff and all extras that I could remove, changed the pagepool to 4 MB and it's running great thanks again itje, hmmmmm.......whispering vanilla..

I believe the .brn files are animation files for the cube. Dunno how to do this though. I'm clueless in HyperCore. If nobody's asked Tom_Codon, i'll ask him.

no need to ask him, got it on the first attempt. I've made a WM6 Herald Rom with the only change being the added biotouch. I'm gonna spend the next few weeks trying to remove all the extra stuff. Unfourtunately I don't have a wing so I won't be cooking a clean rom for the wing(unless someone wants to write down exactly all the files they want me to remove), not familiar with all the stuff they put on there. Although, I can cook t-mobile rom with just biotouch enabled...but who would want to use that with all the extra crap they put in there.

the bm files is the cube

ye figured it out thanks...do you know how I could remove internet sharing completely??
EDIT:I've been able to find and completely remove 100's of files associated with voice speed dial,adobe,audiomanager,windows live&msngr,midletmanager,winzip
the programs I am having trouble fully removing are:
*internet sharing (i know in SYS folder there is INTERNETSHARING...anything else associated with this app) "
mediaplayer (i know its mediaOS but not sure if I can delete the .dll also in these folders)
I'm also planning to remove the games aswell.
EDIT:you think its alright to remove the transriber folders, (3 of em) i notice some picture files in there that might still be needed unless there is another version of them of the rom

If i'm not mistaken, which i probably am, the only difference between the wing and the herald is the keyboard. But i'm probably wrong.
Maybe Itje can provide us with a list of things he changed to make Touch-it for wings.

if you remove to much, the os.nb will become smaller then the 50mb limit and wont work. So if you remove very much, add stuff too

wasn't aware of such a limit. at one point I had it tested and working at 43mb. added batterystatus,a theme and some other stuff. Currently I am sitting at 48mb and am looking to have it at around 40mb if possible. By removing WMP and Powerpoint I should get a little closer.
Who told you about this limit btw???

Huh. Sound good. Shame about the potential 50mb limit, thought it would be nice if it wasn't true.
But anyway, what ARE the differences between the herald and the wing? It'd be nice to know, so maybe we can make some cab fix.

Meschle (chef on artemis section, and moderator)
but maybe thats just on the artemis....
If you get it to work on lower mb, thats just good herald owns artemis
btw, I managed to port a rom (sys folder) from a artemis to herald, I flashed it today and it worked great.
Im gonna port a rom to the wing when im done with the ones im working on now. Currently working on getting the Kaiser sys ported to herald, if this is success ill do one for wing too.

dang. hopefully it IS just for artemis
Oh and i worship you.

let me know how that kaiser port comes port comes along. I would love to play around with that in a kitchen.
cheers

btw itje whats the memory situation on your latest rom after a fresh flash for the storage and program memory, both the total and in use...just curious for comparison

Ill give an answer to that later tonight (gmt +1) Im gonna test a new build then

Best profile software (SPB?)

I'm tempted to buy the SPB Phone suite (primarily for the profile software) but was wondering if there are any more powerful alternatives?
Thanks!

Try PhoneWeaver

Try PhoneWeaver, by SBSH. It's #1 on my "must-have" list. It's the first program I install after flashing a new ROM or doing a hard reset.
I can't say if it's more powerful than SPB Phone Suite, but it's a great program. You can download a fully functional 12-day trial version and see if you like it.
(No affiliation with SBSH, just a satisfied customer!)

Cool thanks, i'll give it a go
I've found other offerings, but they all seem to include loads of other crap that i have no interest in!

I am tempted using this software, but I would prefer to leave my PhotoContacts Pro app installed. Do you think that both applications can be installed ( and work) together without problem?
thanks for the link, it seems very nice app.

Clean lite rom

Since nobody wants to cook a clean 'lite' official rom without all the excess baggage that all rom makers simply love to include... my only option is to choose a rom which is as close as possible to a lite official rom
which of these cooked roms is the cleanest of them all?
One which has as many nonsense official programs removed and as little other useless programs added
btw, i consider programs like batti a useless program becos i'm using o2 plus which has a nicer battery display meter and comes with a better task mgr... you guys should try it

Hi, just tell me what you want to remove in the LITE part of my LITEHEAVY ROM, and I will go in that direction!

We need a real clean ROM, only or near windows mobile 6.1.
I don't need Internet Explorer 6, TouchFlo, Office, Album, Manila Arcsoft_MMS_WVGA, MP3Trimmer, VoiceRecorder, VideoTelephony JBlendJava_WVGA, StreamingMedia, PictureEnhancement, SocialNetworksEngine, ZIP
I want to have the oportunity to install everything from cabs or use 3rd party software

At first, i wanna thank pzucchel for his great work on his rom's!
I think the way to make clean rom's and let the user install what he needs is the totally right way, but i wouldn't go that far and remove anything. IMHO removing office or even TouchFlo will be too much - i don't know if its possible to make cabs of them to install this programs or ui later...
But, as i say above, it's the totally right way, cleaning the rom and let the user install what he wants!

I think that most of htc top bar enhancement are useless, for me. I always turn off "enlarge start menu", "htc task manager" and "LargeTitleBar".

i've saw pzucchel's rom and i think it is far too complicated for a very simple concept
all i want is a rom as takhs has said, with everything stripped off and given as a .cab package
this is similar to what christonge has done with the touch diamond...
with such a lite rom, there will no longer be any need for anymore rom builders because we can install the lite rom and 'cook' our own roms by choosing what we wish installed and what not

I think a super clean ROM would be great, too. I always want little apps like MP3 Trimmer and the Office apps but I NEVER use them!

i better understand. If you make the ULTIMATE list of applications to remove, i can compile a ROM for you. I doubt, however, that you will be happy. Sometimes, to find the RIGHT cab (all available cabs for standard built-in applications are hacks/patches that could have little issues) is very difficult, and you'll start installing incompatible cabs. But if YOU manage it, and you make the exact and final list of applications to remove, i can make the ultra-lite version of my ROM. By the way, these are probably 10 clicks removing folders that you could also do on the preparred kitchen which i put on the thread of my ROM. BTW, i do understand your need but i am not fully sure it is the solution.
All the best!

Absolutely correct - this is as LITE as it could. BTW, all really WHITE ROMs, at the end, will be identical and dependent only on the core build of WM.
BlackDragon, how MUCH you gain in responsiveness by removing apps like youtube? i always thought that the apps not installing services, autostart etc.etc. would not affect the performances...or not?

registiry changing

i want to change my message font size and fount out the way to do it is through the registiry but i dont know how to get into it, do i need a programme to do it?

Total Commander might help you.

I think SKTools for PocketPC
is the best for your pocketpc.
backup, tweak, cleanup, defrag, …does it all!
compatible with wm 2003, wm5, wm6 classic and pro.
MOD EDIT:
No warez!

FDCSoft Task manager (100% free, google it) is an extremely competent registry editor/taskmanager, which is one of the first things i put on any new ROM I flash. I highly recommend it.
Dave

Of course, all of that was something Search would have given you.

You can purchase SKTools from this website http://www.s-k-tools.com/index.html?m_main.html , there is a trial version as well.
