wm6.5 manila 2.5 cooking help - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

well, ive tried cooking manila 2.5 into my rom with limited success. First of all for some reason when it boots I get this error in a moveable window that says "\Windows\copilot.wm6ppc.cab is not found" Another issue I have is that the top bar is missing. The one with the start button, its just gone... The final is that whenever I shut off or soft reset it goes through the customization again, almost like it was freshly flashed. I will attach my build log and initflashfiles.dat for you guys to look at, thanks!

I was having this issue it was my sd card causing it:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\HTCService]
"DocIndexerService"="DocIndexerService.dll"
i had to remove that service or remove my sd card to get it working.. also try recmodding modules.

Need TouchFlo.exe from Windows dir (ver. 2.3) Please Help!

Hey experts
I downloaded and installed TylerC161 compiliation of Touch-it 2.3 (clean, see this thread) with TouchFLo, but after installing successfully, I still can't get the cube to appear. I had the version 2 before and I simply assigned TouchFlo to one of the buttons. The TouchFlo application or shortcut was installed in Programs/TouchFlo folder. After installing this version, I don't see the TouchFlo in that folder (only TF Setting and TouchSetting), nor do i see it anywhere in the Button Settings. Am I missing something? I only found a shortcut file in the Windows directory. But copy/paste that didn't solve. My question is can someone with working Version 2.3 upload TouchFlo.exe file from Windows directory for me so I can copy it where it is supposed to go? Or do I need to reflash and re-install? Thanks!
I tried Touch-It 2.3 fix.cab but that didn't solve it! Any ideas?! Please?!
you must select your method of cube activation in TFsettings i believe. Its one of those choices.

I did that, and it still didn't create TouchFLO icon or gave me an option in the Buttons! Very strange!
I even tried another Flash from Genuine RUU, and still the same thing! Please help, anyone?

Once you select an option in TFsetting, you need to reset the device.
There will not be any buttons to start touchflo, just the option that you selected, meaning either sliding your finger from the top of the screen to the bottom or center to bottom, and etc.

Are you saying that you got the "stock rom start menu" or just lost the option called "QuickMenu" in which you will find options like Screen, SIP, bluetooth, etc in ttrans custom rom? I had the same problem but after few days and soft resets it appeared on its own. anyway make sure that "QuickMenu.lnk" which is a shortcut file which brings the custom start menu is available in the folder "\Windows\StartUp\" and if not copy from "\Windows" and paste in start up folder. Use total commander or some other file explorer to do the same. let me know the result
that did it
thanks spk_xda!
i copied and pasted and now i'm back up and running the good quick/start menu. i appreciate the fast help.

You know what, now I lost the start menu lol... even though the lnk file is available in "\windows\startup" folder its not coming back and I got the stock rom start menu. lets see what happens after few days...
I had the same problem except the link for the quickmenu is in the start up folder already. It occured after doing the initial settings changes the second time I flashed it with Open Touch v4.0. The first time it worked for a little bit but I guess I changed some setting that doesn't allow it to start up. I can click the link or program and it will load once but it defaults to the Orig. start menu after that... Am I the first with this specific issue?

No, you are not the only one having this issue. As I stated above, I still have the problem and the quick menu doesnt comes even after many soft resets. I even tried to move the .lnk file from startup folder and reset and then moved it back and reset, but no way... it just doesnt work...

Opera 9.5 build 1938

Has anyone managed to upgrade the existing Opers
a on Diamond with the new build?
If so, what is the procedure?
Thx
I installed the CAB from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401643
I used the version called VGA full install to device memory.
I installed it straight over a stock 1.93 UK unbranded ROM. It worked fine, and is a noticeable improvement.

In what way is it noticeably improved?
Because there is Plenty of room for improvement over 9.5 build 1660 I have.
Presumably the zip file under Opera Build 1938 Upgrade: (Not Resloution Specific) which contains 3 exe files (Opera9, OperaL and OperaPreL) just need to be copied into the Windows directory overwriting the existing ones to upgrade the software to build 1938?
Has someone done this, If so what are the improvements?
Does this build of Opera include the auto rotate without using GSen?

But now you have 2 versions of Opera on your device no? AFAIK it doesn't replace the one on the ROM.
Answers:
logger - I find it snappier to use, more responsive, and I don't get black hole glitches anymore.
tmohammend - maybe you are right... it's not the version I installed though.
richardirv - yes it has autorotate
MAK11 - I'm not sure that this is right. I'm not even certain that Opera is actually in ROM. When I hard reset the device I see Opera being installed on the device along with Google Maps and the other software. How would this install process put it into ROM? I wonder if actually Opera is in RAM, it just doesn't have an add/remove entry.
But this is all speculation. Maybe one of those ROM cooker guys could tell us this.
What I do know is this: after installing Opera 1938 I seem to have about the same amount of RAM as before, I still have 43% used RAM on my Diamond running S2U2 according to the HTC task switcher, and I only see one instance of Opera in memory apps like mobilemonger.
Maybe you're right and I have two versions installed, but if that's true it's invisible to me and the sacrifice is certainly worth it for a much improved Opera!
Installed build 1938 and cant see any noticeable improvement over build 1660. Still has numerous annoying Opera "features" that drive me bonkers.
However I was never effected by black hole glitches.
I get an error message when trying to install build 1938, "installation unsuccesfull [...] does not have sufficient system permissions"
Trying to install the VGA CAB, have tried to install both to device and storage memory.
I've also tried to replace the 3 files in the "Not Resloution Specific"-version, but there is some kind of permission problem there too.
Am I doing something wrong?
double post due to connection problem

Maybe I'm using language that's a bit too gushing. It's slightly improved, not transformed. It's not like it suddenly sped up to Google Chrome speed. (Wouldn't that be nice...)
Use the zip file containing uograde 3 files, but before copying, you will need to kill the processes Opera9.exe & OperaPreL.exe using a task manager. This will upgrade the current. But offcourse if you do a hard reset the old one will come back.
installed the upgrade, certainly feels quicker. No longer get the black hole bug i did on certain pages. Seems to detect me rotating to landscape better too

Thanks, I didn't know the processes were running even though I'd performed a soft reset. As a bonus I found a good task manager!

Soft-reset and try again.... normally that error message apears when some service related to previous usage of opera is still running in background.

[Q] some .exe that could be removed from most himalaya rom's ?

i have found some .exe in most himalaya rom's "\Windows" folder that seem too be not needed so they could be deleted from future kitchens and stuff.
anyway here they are with screenshots..
1.sms_alert_fix.exe-pretty obvious.
2.SimLock.exe-i think something to do with unlocking sims (eventhough i've never used it).
3.cgacutil.exe-it shows you what version of NetFrameWork you are running (not sure if it gets installed as defult when NetFrameWork is installed.
4.hwhelp.exe-seems to be left from the keyboard option of character recognizer.
5.wrlsmgr.exe-maybe a part of the himalaya wireless driver.
can these be removed or deleted safely?
any ideas?

SMS_Alert_Fix will revive your phone when you will get a sms.
Simlock is really weird.
cgacutil is funking needed.
hwhelp is not needed but I don't want to know what will happen when deleted
wrlsmgr is needed for people who have SDIO Wifi card which himalaya support.
thats it then SimLock.exe is getting deleted and i will see what happens!
Here is what I removed to get free sectors in My WM6.1. The only way to learn effectively is: trial and error. Next try to read and understand the registry. It's all in there.

msim is keyboard right?
wisplite is totally unneeded, you can delete it but don't forget to delete registry entries in shell
also i know these can be deleted bcuz they are to do with error reporting and feedback-
DwXfer.dll
dw.exe
ceipui.exe
and also this-
BackPack.dll
hey muckelmaus these are needed for keyboard-
msim.dll
msim.96.dll
this for the 4 dots you have to tap when you first start up a new rom-
welcome.exe
and this is one of your splash screens-
welcomehead.96.png
and this is used for the search device for file function-
shfind.exe
otherwise i cannot see any problem with deleteing the rest of them...
i have also found this on a other part of xdadev-
*
Hd.dll
*
Aosaxst0.dll
*
Mencfilt.dll
Here Hd.dll and Aosaxst0.dll are used for M$ debug. Like some times on pc the apps close itself, and windows asks you to send the details to M$ (example. error number : 893647). We ( users) don’t know what it means, only the developer in M$ know. But I never saw these files report anything to us. SO!!! We don’t need them! they are trash!!
Now Mencfilt.dll is for storage card encrypt. If you don’t use it, you can delete it as well. Have you had this experience where after flashing a new Rom every thing in storage card can’t show any more!!!! but its still use the space in the card. Yes it's because of this file only.
**NOTE: There are some device in which removing these files causes system issues so be careful. But only a few devices

As I used a german 'qwertz' keyboard and a smaller splash screen, these files are just overwritten in my rom. These are backups.
I skip the Touchscreen alignment at first bootup (it doesn't work anymore after changing initflashfiles.dat)
Did you ever try to use * as a joker with the search program? Totally useless, so it is overwritten by a better app, renamed to: shfind.exe.

It didn't bother, everything worked 'till I deleted some files in startmenue and rearanged the programs. But noone told me that he missed the feature. Approximately 300 users over all. Even if some of them only tested. For me it was OK, and I'm still running it from the very first day, without any need of a new hard reset 'till now.
muckelmaus, why do you have a smaller startup screen?
I reduced the size of the files to get some kB/sectors free, as my rom is full of third party apps.

As I remember you can put JPG file as welcomehead
there is 2 solutions:
Save as jpg file and then just rename into .png
Save as jpg and change registry entry in redist dpi 96
by the way:
look at this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen]
"MSBitmap"="\\windows\\welcomehead.96.png"
"MSTimeout"=dword:7530 ; 30000 milliseconds
"CarrierBitmap"="\\windows\\welcomehead.96.png"
"CarrierTimeout"=dword:7530 ; 30000 milliseconds

maybe we could have 2 splash screens and change their duration on screen
So, when combined with bootloader 2 splashes (as I post tutorial to change it easly) we can have 4 splashes.
Good for doing PC boot images as I did before hima died my work in attachment
(I know that hima does not have AMD Althon but it seems good)

[Q] 3 Problems

Hi, i just flashed My device and I really like My new rom but there are 3 Problems and I wanted to ask for some tips to solve them..
oh before I forget that: I don't use Manila if it's important
1. I want to close programs when I push the "x" button on the top for some seconds but it just closes and I have to open My taskmanager to close it.
how can I fix that?
2. When I open My Album all the Pictures in My Camera folder appear but when I push Albums on the bottom the other folders doesn't appear... Only the loading circle comes out on the top and then again the camera folder...
3. I cannot open My communications setup, to configure My internet via SIM card... It just doesn't work.. The windows appears and disappears again in the same second..
Are there any cabs to fix these problems?
Please help Me to fix these things..
that would be great.
Thanks to all of you
better tell what rom you flashed?
regards stef
I am using the nhathoa lite german rom
i am searching for the link but till now I couldnt find it...
aren't there any cabs to solve these problems?
no one with a solution?
help please..
ROM-Version
2.53.405.5 (23554) GER
System-Version
5.2.21898
1. If the ROM has the X button on the top right, go to Task Manager in your programs, the select settings and select close app instead of minimize when pressing X button. If it does not, then I would suggest Quick Menu to close your apps.
2. Almost sounds like it's not reading your storage Card. Go to Camera settings and select "save images to SD Card". In Manila, you can set your album tab to a specific folder in your registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCAlbum\favorite_folder=\\Storage Card\\"Your folder Location"
3. Did you hard reset after you flashed the ROM? You can try turning off Sense in your Home settings and try it again.
