You need to give more details. What base rom is is from? (for example)

Im really not intending to be a jerk, but you asked for critique, and now appear to be surprised it isn't flying off the shelves, so to the point, you post a ROM you cooked, which has apps inside you appear to know nothing about, magic ss..and since when is "glossy black bars" an app, and then don't even really post much info about it, other than its bloated..that's besides the point that I myself don't think I could even bare to tell someone I was running a rom named "Mr Bloaty".
If you want more downloads, you're going to have to put a little more effort into it...maybe some version info/screenshots, instead of just throwin up a download link to what appears to be a bloated turd that you and your friends though up after a few too many beers..or something one night.
Sorry if I sound rude, just calling it as I see it.

IIRC Glossy black bars is a small utility that appeared in some of the Black Roms.
Also, should you want a very heavily laden ROM, I would suggest that using Pandora's kitchen would be the way forward. (Choose what you want)
You don't give much info on what you have done to the ROM - but as you say you are new to all this, it will not fill people with confidence and tempt them to try it.

Ahh my bad, ty for the info on the app, had always just done it manually myself, or rather nowdays I just have a shortcut and HW key mapped to an exported reg value.

basically i used pandoras kitchen, and added virtually all the apps included, there are a few people like me who dont want a lite rom, i like a rom with quite a few apps included, I dont enjoy a few beers with mates, i like looking round for apps and sharing this, and many other ppc sites with every ppc owner i know, so i thought i would do a basic (i know only the basics what i read on here and the wiki) rom, yeah its not up there with the gods (schaps,jasjamming and the rest) but its my contribution to this forum
As for calling it MR BLOATY, its full of bloat.... mr bloaty is only the name of the rar file.
Its based on the Tmobile 3.60 rom (so i been told)
Im sorry that i have not added more info on the rom, or screenshots, all i know it runs pretty nippy, you will have to add your own internet settings, and if you want office, you will have to add the .cab yourself
Again, im a bit of a noob round these parts, i basically had a good read of the forum on how to use pandoras kitchen, studied all parts of the rom, constructed it, and converted it to download.
I dont mind if you download or not, its just my contribution here
its been downloaded 27 times too. so at least my work not being wasted

OK - I don't think the aim of the posters here ( me included) was to put you off sharing your efforts, rather to enable more people to try it.
Just add the following facts to your first post:
ROM created using the Tmobile Test Rom version of Pandora.
The following applications have been included :

.....
No other changes made to the ROM
Doesn't include Office (Will need to install using cab)
Will need to add own network settings
OS only upgrade (I assume this is right?)
Seems to run fast and no issues noticed to date (Again, is this correct)
And that should be all we need to know. Keep up the good work!

ok, thanks for that, will upgrade first post....

Awesome rom
Stable and all included
Nice work
I cannot unlock Ext flash with this rom, it was accesable on Dutty's rom
Hi Chamelion any possibility to put a link for this rom, in another friendly site like megaupload, I also don't like rapidshare at all. Thanks
So far great ROM..
Thanks for not including cyberon vc it makes it much easier to get ms vc going.
Everything else seems to work just fine, but voice dialling ain't working (Error opening the short cut). This same happened with lvsw's version (and with Black 3.0).
How do I fix this?
[edit]
Never mind, just installed Cyberion Voice Dialer.cab

got an even friendlier site called zimuhost.getmyip.com
there's a high speed HTTP mirror posted in the forum that the original posters link links to. i'm anti rapidshare, hence me starting up the file hosting thing!
I found another problem, that I never had before When I change anything via control panel Today, then nothing really happend, only after SR.This is odd, because if I want to use SPB products, then I must SR device each time, I make any changes. Till now I did not read or search on forum about this problem (or if somebody actually have same problem as I), I going to flash device again only if problem did not dissapear, then I start looking for answers.
PS: with original LVSW last version this problem was not.
/update\
now I find some posts about this prob here till now, no sollution.
For those of you who want ms vc over headset.
Its probably best to not have the headset paired so unpair it and just add it after all the steps.
1.) Install MS VC 1.6
2.) Install attached .cab
3.) In programs launch BT Voice Command Config
4.) Check enable
5.) Click save
6.) Click Exit
7.) Turn off phone
8.) Turn on phone
9.) Pair bt headset
I take no credit for this program it was done by XCSdM and later modified by ZaJules..
This works perfect for me no other tricks or reg edits zilch, nada, nothing. You might want to set voice command to button 5 though.
Is the x-button works like it should with elf version? I mean does the exclusive click working & what build is in this ROM version? thanks in advance
today not refreshing only after SR
For those who have problem with Today settings, this is reply and solution from LegolasTheElf copied from his forum - thank you
"It's looking like that today screen issue is caused by the X-Button. To remove it, go to the Remove Programs settings applet and remove it. Because of the way this ROM is built, you can remove my additions I'm actually going to be building my ROM's in a different way than anyone else--by using mostly CABs to do the customization rather than imbedding into the ROM itself. IMHO, this is a better design as it allows people to customize their device, and reclaim storage space if they don't like the items I've included in the ROM "

That´s exactly what I´ve tried today and so far so good.... it´s a pity as I liked the new version of x button!! Maybe our great chefs can find a solution at some point...

u can't ..my way of doing it is to uninstall the apps, go to settings/remove programs ..and then install the one here http://rapidshare.com/files/32749891/WLM.rar.html
or another way, is to use sleuth developers variation of this LVSW ROM.. (it is pre-installed with the transparent windows live search bar)

Well, I WAS going to wait for a newer 1774x rom, but, given the fact that this ROM is working so well, I see no reason not to continue to use 17913 to cook my ROM..
So, hang tight for some new Elfishness in the coming days

Ideas for B&B version 4.2

I know that 4.1 is only just out & I think it's brilliant. I'm spending every evening checking new posts and playing with my phone like never before. So, before the 4.1 thread becomes the next thread with 1200 posts, I thought I'd start a new thread for ideas for 4.2
Tom - before I found the magic that is B&B I was using Wisbar Advance desktop and an application called innesoft address book which had a great feature that when someone called you, their photo was displayed full screen with their name (see thumbnails) rather than just the standard windows window.
Any chance you could devlelop something similar for 4.2 !!!
Cheers

Here is something that may hold you over, I am still trying to figure out how to use the caller id without the actual slide to unlock, bit here is something to tide you over, jsut a thought
Have a pretty much full screen keyboard for texting in landscape mode? The text appears at the top?
Is there a way we can assign a button to lock the phone rather than go thruogh the menu?
Cheers
Anybody knows if it is legal to include trial versions of apps in cooked rom?
Was thinking rom with included sktools, english dictionary of some kind, IM+, resco explorer, spb gprs monitor included on rom would save time and space. Apps included would be trial versions and ppl haveing bought them could just enter activation keys/serials, others could buy app if thy liked it.

This would be a waste of time and energy for most, these Roms are made to be efficient, the least amount of space used so that you as an individual can place your desired programs, once a rom is built there is no removing/uninstalling of any apps, hence the reason to not put trial versions into a rom, I use several of the above mentioned, but to "Bloat" a rom with them would be ineffecient. Best thing to do is install on your sd card, keep all your initial install cabs in one folder and use that as your rebuild folder. Cheers.

...
Is it not worth remembering that everyone has a different list of killer apps they MUST have on their device?
If Tom & Meschle etc added every app - the rom would only just fit on a 40gb hard disk!!!
To my mind - the idea is that the cooked roms are a basis onto which you install your own apps to make your own device work?
Constanlty asking for new apps to be added to a rom just complicates the issue. Or am I wrong?
something so i can remotly use my desktop via PPC
then im complete
automated network setup like in the O2 WM6 Premium 1.0 WWE rom
Extended timers & alarms application
I'd like to avoid installing SpbTime on each version
Great job!
OK, i agree, rom should be as slim as possible, but why the hell there is cube, psshutXP, PHM regedit/traylaunch, and office mobile on it then?
Could make an ultra lite wersion. (=
P.S. Dont get me wrong, i think 4.1 is great and it is a lot faster than O2. Just throwing around ideas about how to make it better.
with my original post, I was not really asking for a copy of the app, just would like a much bigger photo to pop up with caller id and liked the look of the inesoft one.
Tom - what do you think?
Just trying to make the ROM easier to use, more efficient.
B&B 4.1 is far better than original ROM from this point of view
TouchFlo for example helps to have everything we need with a single finger move..
Phone app is a lot more usable also.
Perhaps also the possibility to customize HTC Home by default, with more options (number of apps in the launcher, ..)
i don't think that is constructive to add as much apps, i can imagine, when it's released, everbody is shouting "this is not good" and "why did you use this app and not the other one"...and so one. I like it clear, not too much apps...but that's my opinion.
If i want it with all apps included then i start (to learn ) cooking my own ROM... IMHO i am very satisfied with the work that Tom is doing for us all. And 4.1 is just released. Enjoy it and let Tom make a break. He is hard working all the time!
Plugins for new version
Alarms extension (SpbTime style)
USB PenDrive emulator (WMstorage style)
Phone call recording (Audio Recorder style)
Thanks for B&B! Great job!
i have a great idea
Why dont we support Tom and all off his hard work and all the other wizards here, and stop complaining or asking for more.
like a bunch of kids in a sweet shop.
Improving File access
What I would like to see is the File Dialog Changer, I don't know who has heard of it but it is very good! Usually when you want to save files or open them in any application you get access to you My Documents folder. Only some smart apps like TCPMP and others have the option to access your entire pda.
File Dialog Changer changes the way you access your files in opening and saving them for every application, it's just 50 KB and you can activate / deactivate it in System Settings.

And about your wish I can only say that there is already Remote Desktop for WM6, I think I've downloaded it in the Wizard forum. Or use PocketVNC, that is the pda version for VNC. I am successfully using that with TightVNC on my computer. I just have to be in range of my WLAN and can turn on my computer by sending a wake on lan signal (not with vnc) and then access my computer through pocketvnc or access the files on my computer.

I think he had a point though. In the whole thread there is not one message of Tom Codon himself. Did you ask what he thinks? Maybe he has a few ideas of his own? After all, it will be his ROM...
Who says it will be B&B v4.2? Why not 4.3 or 5.0? If there will be another version let him take care of the numbers.

[Updated: Oct 16th,08] NRG MiniWeather 1.2 !

Hello everyone. I've been working on this project today and I'd like to share my work. This is the mini version of NRG ChomeWeather 3.1... MiniWeather 1.0.
It's only got ONE layout and that's a 5 day layout as seen in the screenshots below. It's portrait device compatible so feel to install on Tornado's and such. This version also hopefully corrects the problem people have been experiencing with the phone locking up while the keyboard was locked and the weather app was updated.
This version also has a solid autoupdate routine that hasn't failed me once in the last 3 days.
All in all, I believe this is a rock solid version and I've tried to anticipate any bugs that may occur. Think of this as a light version of NRG Weather 3.1, as it's only 2 megs in size.
However, I will stop development of the old 3.1 version and just improve this. I hope you like this... and please report any issues. Thank you.
A few words for the newbs... After you install and reboot, please set your location code in the Options. Then update.
In order for the detailed forecast panels to show updated information, the phone HAS to be rebooted. There's no way around this... YET. I'm currently
working on moving from the CTestUIPanel to another panel, but not ready to do so... yet.
Features:
- Autoupdate according to Yahoo servers' time + 10 minutes + 1-5 random minutes (so we don't all hit the server at the same exact times)
- Update in 15 minutes when no connection is found.
- First forecast day info comes from Yahoo... the rest from weather.com
- Verbose status information as the script is running.
- Minimal set of icons to save space.
- Detailed Forecast panels can be turned off in "Advanced Options"
- Application will not automatically refresh the screen while the phone's keypad is locked.
- Built-in leftover notifications removal tool, in case you want to uninstall. See "advanced options".
October 18th - 1.2 Release
- Twice as fast current forecast download.
- Only one layout supported.
- Revised layout and removed the monitor, for now.
- Blue / black backgrounds behind the temp and hi low indicators, actually follow the official sunrise/sunset of the location selected.
It updates in 15 seconds or less now...
etc...

This is a preliminary release of MiniWeather 1.3 with support for the new 20279 core which has a different Chome platform. This version is NO different than 1.2 and it ONLY works on the "Rose" based ROMs, including my own Excalibur version.

Non fully tested yet, so if there's any bugs, let me know. Oh, you might have to go to homescreen options and pick one of the MiniWeather layouts
Reserver for later...
Looks Really GREAT!
Thanks! You're the man.... I am really loving it.

Good work man. You always have been really good at putting together a nice, clean package and no different here.

I think there's room for all of us here, and that's cool the way you made blue/black deal to reflect time. Great idea!
Looking goooood!
Great job Org (sorry, NRG). Works great. Really simple to use (as it should be) and awesome looks. The only thing I found is that for some reason it doesn't show low values on cTestUI. It's been happening since a couple of versions ago on my device (although I've uninstalled before installing this new one). Here's a SS of what I'm talking about. I think maybe it's some residual reg values or misplaced pics.
Anyway, it's a great app. Thanks for all the hard work
Hi NRG/Org.....
As usual your work is wonderful, this version works like a charm and seems that my phone has about 1 Mb more of memory free, thanks for your amazing work, waiting for your new version without the testui panel......

Well I figured out what the problem was. The script wasn't equipped to handle single digit temperatures Now it is and the second post was updated with a new cab. You can just use the attached "patch" cab if you've already installed the application. That way you don't have to reinstall everything. Thanks for the heads up on this.

I made them a .cab file for their app already. Only thing i couldnt seem to do ( and i don't know why) was integrate mortscript into the .cab. I followed your .cab structure for mortscript.exe and it never worked. Hopefully showaco will post my .cab shortly and if you want to you can take a look at see if you can integrate mortscript into somehow.
It's easy really. Mortscript only needs two references in the classes section of the registry to tell windows how to open "mscr" files and of course the mortscript.exe file... copied somewhere on the device. I chose \windows for my cab files

see thats weird. i tried that and it didnt seem to work. i added the mortsript reg entries in the HKCR section and everytime in stalled the app and tried to run his weather options.mscr file it said that cannot find file or one of its components.... once i installed the .cab withouth mortscript and installed the mortscript.cab file posted on his thread it worked fine.... weird.
Simply.....Amazing.
anyway to let it auto-disconnect the GPRS after update?
I could make it an option...
what is the 21XX number of the normal clock png icon? i don't have it anymore after doing a series of uninstalls and reinstalls etc.
Hey DUDE!
I am seconding what Showaco said. I really like the way this looks. I am glad you started using the clock panel too. Maybe we can collaborate on some ideas in the future. I sent you a pm last night, so if you didn't check it yet, check it. I hope all is well in Orgville and have a great day, bud.

Request Custom made ROMs here (it's what YOU want)All current requesters please read!

First of all, HUGE thanks to psuarmy, bilbobrian, and bepe (they know why). Last year, in my first period class (basketball), somebody decided to jack my 8525 and took off with it which upset me a lot. Well, i finally got an 8525 so i can cook for it. I've spent quite some time getting it all ready and it's finally good to go.
I offered this same service for the Kaiser and a lot of people seemed to like it so i thought i'd bring it here. It'll bring a lot more load on me, but i'm on summer vacation until the 25th and then school starts (will continue to do this even when i have school hopefully).
Most chefs tend to cook what the majority of the people like including myself. When i cooked my first ROM and asked people for feedback/suggestions, i did get a few programs that everybody liked but there were many suggestions of programs that each different user liked. So i could have cooked Livcast in which Joe wanted, but Mary wouldn't use it at all; that kind of thing
I couldn't get anybody to cook what i wanted so i did it myself So i'm opening up this thread for ANYBODY who has a request to cook a ROM which can include ANY program (or rather anything they want). I will cook commercial programs, but will NOT include any license/registration key; that's up to you to get. The format should look something like this:
Programs: Thousands of these.
Games: Thousands of these to
Version: Here you can tell me whether you want a cube version, non-cube version, diamond build, etc.
Other: Whatever else you'd like.
Preferred Upload Host: Have problems with RS? No problem, just tell me the site and i'll upload it there. I can also upload to Jannaa's blogspot thanks to her generosity!

Chances are that I probably have access to the programs you want, so i'll make them to an OEM if i don't already have them.
I'm on summer vacation so I have quite some time and i'd like to devote it in helping out (not just here but anywhere). If this doesn't go so well, i'll just ask a mod to delete the thread.
This is 100% FREE and i'd like to help as much as I can, but if you can/are able to, i have PAYPAL @ ksallstar2013 at yahoo.

Ooo! Like the sound of this.
Programs: Samsung time, iContact, Windows live, office, pocket rar, softkey changer, pocketIRC, Schaps advanced config, Oxios Memory, phm regedit, and finaly pbar.
If you dont have any of these, just ask and ill post them up.
Games: just the default ones will do
Other: button 5 fix, and com manager toggle vibrate fix. As clean as you can, maybe take out error reporting, managed programs, and clear storage as well as the normal stuff like welcome centre.
I would like HTC connection wizard in there as well.
10 button black comm manager, and this dialler.
Version: I dont mind to much, I dont use anything like the Cube, just the newest you have. (WM6.1 of cause) I see build 20273 around, maybe newer if you have it
If i missed anything, just say and ill get right back to you!
New chef???
Or you just came back from the future? I have a perfect ROM so far, for what I need, let's see if someone else can come up with some ideas.

That's why I said he came from the 'future' as he's been doing ROMs for the kaiser. I think I have also picked my next ROM for the kaiser, but will see what's on offer here
Lol, now i know what you mean. Well if you read the first few sentences of the post, i had an 8525 before my Tilt. Then some loser jacked it from me when i was dressing out after my practice
I've done over 40 ROMs for the Kaiser (look at the thread or a picture here) It's been great assisting people. Can get extremely stressful, however the outcome is well worth it when people like it
@ veyka, i have everything you said except oxios and pbar; will look into getting those
You should check up for Abusalza and Starbase64 4shared directories on their signatures. They have plenty of cabs ...

Lol, thanks for the attatchments, but I already had them downloaded after you requested them . I'll try to make pbar into a cab, no problem

HOLD up for now...Im looking at some other possible IU & apps!

[ROM] 2-4-10 WM 6.5.5 Build 24001 (MetroPCS) for Vogue by egzthunder1

Hi Guys and Gals,
Here is my newest ROM...
This is rather experimental since no one really knows what M$ did new in this new branch...
COME and GET IT
Change Log
First Revision...
*MetroPCS as default carrier. I was going to make it generic, but I cannot find my Generic module anymore
*Office Beta 2010 (latest)
*Windows Live 10.7.0061.0500.2000
*MSL Grabber
*Adobe Reader 2.5
*CleanRAM 1.9.3
*M2DC
*Chome Editor
*PHM Regedit
*RSS Hub
*Slide2Shutdown
*New Version of Opera 10 Beta
*M2D Citi Weather Editor
*Total Commander
*Removed Widgets
I have added NetCF3.5 in the UC Folder because it did not come as part of the SYS for some reason. Also, as always M2D is in the UC for those who simply don't want it.
[highlight]Note: As per Barogi's post, NetCF is already cooked in the rom by default. So, after unpacking my .rar, go into the UC folder and delete the NETCF3.5 cab. Thanks for pointing it out, Barogi![/highlight]
Note: After downloading, dump the XDA_UC folder to the root of the SD card and flash. Once it is done flashing, hard reset the device. Let it do its initial set up and soft reset. Upon second boot, a pop up will come up saying that it will install the apps in the UC folder. Click on OK and it will look like it isn't doing anything for about 10 minutes. Once it is done, it will say that it has finished and that you can reset if you want... do it!
CDMA Home Weather Fix attached
Instructions for Weather Fix:
Before installing the cab, select your weather in the M2D weather tab and update it to get the reading. Once you are done, install the cab and soft reset. All done

Hey just to let you know... the new PPCK now includes .netcf 3.5 into the builds so now theres not an option to have it cooked in, it just includes it anyway. What i had noticed with Build 24001 was that the messaging app was glitchy when going in and out of conversations, it might have just been my rom though.. other than that it was really quick.
can u post some screen-shots ? is it the same as all the other branches ?
Sorry, no screenshots this time. The UI is exactly the same, there is no change whatsoever as far as graphics. This is just a newer release. If I were to put Barogi's screenshots next to screenshots of this rom, you would not be able to tell the difference.

I guess that explains why I did not see it as an option in the kitchen anymore. I ended up including it since I have seen this issue being random, depending on what build I was using. For instance, I made a 23518 (which I never released) and that had it as an option in the kitchen... well, you get my point. Thanks for letting me know about this!
Bugs
*Dialer shows a scroll bar on the side... I have tried many dialers in my roms and all of them do that except the stock dialer. If anyone knows a fix, I am open to suggestions

Your welcome so yeah the newer releases have it in it but 23518 and older i believe had the option. and when you say the screenshots would be the same are you saying your using the same theme i have in my builds? just so people know what you mean.

We are (at least I think), using the same packages for M2D, with the same skins. I am thinking of re-posting the pics of my 28014 rom since they look exactly the same...

You are right about it. The theme is different (I can't remember what I put in mine though).
Glad to see you coming out with new releases. You might want to change the title of your post to 2/4/10.
"reply all"
Could you please cook a rom without the outlook enhancements which cause the "reply all" issue?

Opps, thanks for pointing it out...
After downloading I do not see a XDA-UC folder. Was it supposed to be in the rar or what? Sorry this is the first rom ive downloaded with the UC Install.
Love the Rom for the most part. Fast, seems very stable. Question tho; is the opening book sequence hard coded into the Rom? It's great if your customizing the Rom for yourself, but I would prefer something more.....well let's just say different

The folder is there. You are probably just opening the file and extracting the files by themselves rather than extracting everything to a folder. If you have winrar, simply extract the whole archive and you will get a folder named BuildOS with everything in it (including the XDA_UC folder).

I'm sorry, but I don't think I understand what you are asking here. What is the "opening book sequence"? Also, what do you mean by "I would prefer something more.....well let's just say different"? Different in what sense? Do you want more apps? Less apps? Cooked in? Different customization method?
The reason why I cook my roms the way I do is because I have seen Chefs literally wiping out a crap load of variations of the same rom because they try to satisfy everyone's requests. I personally don't have the time to do such a thing, so I leave it to the end user to put whatever they want in their roms, with a few exceptions (I just do the cooking ). You will always see people asking for different browsers, different UIs, different versions of... well, everything. Unless I see a trend or a consensus to put something specific in the rom, I will likely not cook it in. That is simply my way of cooking ...

I am sooo sorry. I've had a small stroke, and my spelling/typing is not what it used to be: I meant boot, not book lol. And I was not asking for you to cook a custom rom: I know your a busy man: ( I was thinking yesterday you must be God, your everywhere on here lol). I was inquiring about the opening two screens, which are fine, just not what I would like to see. I boot my phone up once in the AM and then whenever it freezes or acts funky (which USUALLY occurs when I'm trying to show how awesome it is lol) and I would like something more professional looking. If the opening sequence is something I can hack without having to cook a rom I'd like to give it a go; if not, oh well. So far love love what you've done; phone is fast, has few lags, and seems super stable. So I'm not asking for you to cook a custom rom, just looking for info.

I see...
Well, I believe that you can disable the startup animation via Advanced Config. As far as the bootsplash, there are ways of changing it. The initial screen involves replacing a file in \Windows called "welcomehead.96.jpg" (I am talking about the FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU image )
The other two, I am not too sure where they are located, but I will try to make one with more "standard" boot screens... (I know mine aren't what someone would call "professional", but then again I do this for fun and coffee )
I will cook another one and post it (maybe later today).
BTW, you mentioned a few lags... Where exactly do you see these?
