[Dev Topic] Fixing a 19900 build kitchen.

Hi all,
I've managed to find a dump of build 19900, however I haven't managed to make a working ROM out of it as yet. I'm hoping to find a way to get it working with bepe's kitchen tools - therefore removing the reliance on a custom chinese binary to build these ROMs.
I believe this ROM is big storage, so I'd like to make available a non big storage version as well for everyone to benefit.
Any takers to help out?

Will take a look at it dude, aint got a load of time at the mo though. Might have a quick PM session and see if theres a WWE version we cna use.

Have you guys tried PM'ing Dvha79_ddt? I'm not much help on cooking but i'll try and suggest anything
Good luck guys.
Need testers let me know.

I've managed to get the ROM to build using Bepes kitchen, however it doesn't boot. It sits there at a black screen on power on...
This leads me to believe it's part of the XIP that is just wrong.
I've attached what I've extracted from the included os.nb by doing:
nbsplit -hermes os.nb
RomMaster -w 5 os.nb.payload -x -o xip.bin
Run xipport, choose Dump xip.bin
I then deleted os.nb & os.nb.extra.
Then put the XIP dump together as it should be (i think) for bepe's kitchens.
Not 100% sure where to go from here...
edit: Oh, I've attached the TOOLS directory too - just in case you don't have a copy of Bepes great work.

This is a non big storage modded 19900 xip that works.
I haven't used in a kitchen just yet.
I will have a look at the dump later on.

Hmmm - I've used your XIP - it boots, but same as using the default ROM kitchen tools, it hangs after displaying splash2. I replaced the OEM_FLASHDRV.DLL in OEMDrivers with a non-BS version, in case that was an issue, but still no go...

For now you can try to merge that XIP with the payload from the ROM (without kitchen) and it should boot&work.
Will try to get the romhdr.bin and in fact to rebuild the whole ROM folder and let u know whats happening.

Using Dvha79_ddt 900
I know it's not what you are looking for, but I am using Dvha79_ddt ROM and it is working as well as his 701 which was very fast and rock solid. Would like to help in any way I can as I loved your ROM's apart from the issues. As a noobie where do you find these ROM's in the first place?

A lot of it is hit and miss finding things here and there - like this kitchen that seems to be almost complete, but just doesn't work. A bit of hacking around and it can probably be made to work.
As WM6.1 doesn't exist for the hermes devices, it is always ported from something else - which can lead to weirdness.
Most of it is pot luck, and a lot of knowledge (and I'm missing some in getting this kitchen working )

just a working trick
what I am sure is working (tried it before) is replace the whole ROM folder from new kitchen with your working one and then just slip in the xip.bin into the new payload in a few steps.

Still can't get this working....
I've changed the BuildNB.bat to show the following:
Code:
echo.
CD ROM
..\TOOLS\buildxip.exe -b
if not "%errorlevel%"=="0" goto error
del out.bin
copy xip_out.bin out.bin
CD..
This should use your XIP in the ROM, which shows as 3.62.07.Dan - however I still can't get past splash2... Eventually, the backlight goes out, but it doesn't seem to display anything past splash2... Eventually, the screen goes off (power setting). Turning it back on via the power button just gives me a white screen... I'm at a loss to figure out what's happening here.
The OS.nb.payload is the same (non-BS) that I was using from my 10.1 release of my ROM, and the XIP folder contains the same XIP as 10.1 release (Build 19209) - however the XIP version shouldn't matter, as we delete it and merge yours into the OS-new.nb instead...

About the same happened to me and after a re-flash of a good nbh I got some very strange things happening. I could not install any cab. Very weird.
I had to format everything.
Anyway the xip is working if slipped into old rom, but that's not much of a news...

I looked into S00 of FLASHDRV.DLL module in order to convert it, but it does not look like usually.
Maybe that dump is not from a hermes device.

Hrrrm - that is possible, however the site said that it was for Hermes devices... Are you looking at it in the OEMDrivers directory or the XIP?
Can we swap out the FLASHDRV.DLL from a working ROM? I'm pretty sure that isn't tied to a certain build?

I can try to make it work with the XIP from the 19900 version existing on this thread. (actually from there was the xip I uploaded). Could it work? There will be maybe a 409 & 804 conflict?? I have no clue really. Can only try.

I don't believe the XIP is localised, nor are the OEMDrivers. I may be wrong here though. 409 vs 804 should in theory only become an issue when applications that use localisation is involved..

It is definitely not a hermes rom as the kitchen does not accept a hermes payload while other kitchens accept older (different) payloads. Kitchen halts at ImgfsFromNb.
I can not think of something else. I give up on this one.

Hrrrmmm...
What about this:
ftp://user:[email protected]:333/Aikon/Build19900RKXiaoQiao.7z
It weighs in at 145Mb, but it is supposed to be another Hermes 19900 kitchen that I haven't managed to get going either...

The XIP definatly isnt localised at all,
What sort of sizes are you guys getting for the os.nb filesize?

Artemis Diamondish 6.1 Build 20721.1.4.0 + Build 20273/19965 (ROM + Kitchen)

Hi,
I would like to share the kitchen that I use to build my personal ROM. It's SYS and XIP were ported from the stock Diamond 1.93.456.2 WWE ROM that Tom made available and the kitchen is Bepe's kitchen.
Here it is (Build 19965.1.2.3):
http://rapidshare.com/files/130210385/Artemis_Diamondish_6.1_Build_19965.1.2.3.zip
UPDATE1: I have made a few changes in the OEM folder, I have added Advanced Config, added a patched htc home for the weather and made some changes to the registry. The changed files are in the attached zip.
Pre-Built ROM (NBH) can be downloaded from here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/130466202/Artemis_Diamondish_6.1_Build_19965.1.2.3_NBH_ROM.zip
(Usual rules for cooked roms, i.e. USPL etc.. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331845)
UPDATE2: I have uppdated the XIP and SYS to use build 20273.1.3.3 and use .NET CF 3.5 as suggested, thanks xvx45

Here are some screen shots (of build 19965, mainly the same as build 20273 and 20721 but version numbers changed):

Nice work bro, nice to see new "faces" on Artemis forum.
Cheers.

Thanks, been here a while, just learning as I go. I thought it was a bit quiet on the new ROM front.

Thank you very much for you sharing!
Maybe this was the push i needed to start also cooking.
Who knows...
Cheers

Thanks for share man!
Do you have some screenshots of this ROM?

INFO
Hi,
Just extracted, saw all the separate files, did i miss the full .nb rom image or is this post to cook yourself with the htc romtool?
I know there are a look of cooking-guides, but can anyone explain simple which files tot select from the extraction when running the htc rom tool you have to fill in :
G3 IPL
G4 IPL
SPL
Splash
Radio Ext.Rom
OS
Can i add also .cab files for example somewhere to add to this rom?
Would like to cook first rom.
Thanks,
Innovator

Hi, just run the batch file "BuildNB.bat" and that will generate the .nb and .nbh files, they were removed to reduce the size of the archive.
You may also need to install the VC8 Runtime first, that can be found in the archive:
"tools\vcredist_x86.exe"
There is a tool from Ervius (I think that it is called "packages creator") that will convert cabs to OEMs suitable for cooking with.

Thank you mate, I'll try to make it compatible with Orange France SPV M650 AGPS
Maybe my starting element to come with Artemis community more often (actually my phone but Icook on my old Prophet at this time).
Good job

Hey guys,
This seems promising. I've just installed Tom's latest but have been troubled by bugs (it happens) since he's no longer responding to queries I decided I needed to learn to cook one myself (should be fairly straightforward).
Perhaps we should pool experience & resources and work together, I mean if you look at the activity in the Kaiser forum, you'd be forgiven for feeling a bit left out.
One person could design gfx the other sounds etc. Otherwise I might swap my Artemis for a Kaiser (yes I've been begged!!)
Forgive me if this seems like a pipe dream...

I agree, it would be nice to have an "open" ROM that the community contributes to, I hope that this would keep the Artemis platform alive for future releases of Windows Mobile.

P3350
Hi all... i am very new to cooking and still thinking of getting my feet wet... have a couple of questions...
1. I have a P3350 (Artemis with out GPS) and when i install all these roms they are sluggish when compared to P3300s. My friend has a P3300 and the same ROM is fater ... I tested it immediately after flashing by opening the windows folder and other apps... should i be doing any thing different to get my device up to speed?
2. The ROM on the rapid share (http://rapidshare.com/files/13046620....3_NBH_ROM.zip) is this a directly installable ROM?
3. What should i be doing with the 'changed files'.
Sorry if i am sounding noob...

I don't know of any, but I am looking into a similar issue that I see with my orbit, I think that I am going to look at the XIP region of the ROM to see if there is something device specific there, sorry for not being much help.

Yes, this contains everything but assumes that your device is already running the SPL and only contains the OS portion and not the radio. Look at the link in the first post for help on flashing cooked roms.

No problem, we were all like that, I am still learning as I go.

please inform - this pre-built rom, what is it contains of?

And what about memory leaks?
Thank you

Freshup Roms...
Good try for this new rom, but i find the home-skin not stylish enough (dated too soon).
Why not create a rom with Greatball's today screen, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402021
This is the most stylish skin (with SPBMobile 2.1) i have ever seen (last one with analog clock).
Together with Greatball's Samurai Diamond Weather + Night
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402124
Would be the most fresh looking rom ever
In combination with latest msn, SPB-backup,PPCBackupcontacts,...
Who can do this & freshup our Artemis for a long time ?
Thanks,
Cheers!

When an Italian version?

I have no plans to produce any other languages, but the source to the kitchen is all there for someone to translate to suit thier needs.

Ok, I've tested and make my first Artemis ROM (for test use for the moment).
I've been implemented Orange AGPS drivers but no luck no automatic connexion at the moment when GPS is activated so, I'll make more try. So I've removed some components (Adobe flash & reader, Diamond Keyboard and some little thing) that I don't want and this ROM is stable and fast...very fast coocked with NETCF3.5 Now I'll translate it to French if I've time to that more than my future release
Just one thing mpattman : why to release this kitchen with NETCF 2.0 and not directly 3.5 ?
And the last Word : Thank you mpattman !!!

I can not down your ROM and MYkitchen,please get it to FTP,thank you.

Thanks a ton...
Thanks MPattMan...
I am downloading the kitchen, and will try understanding stuff... will post if i have any doubts... do u have any guide on how to do stuff like adding the programs that i want ? ... i will be more than willing to help, test and learn.

Japanese WM6.1 ROM for X01HT

being tired of seeing too many protected roms floating around, i decided to make japanese wm6.1 cooking base files myself. it took me awhile, but i finally figured it out. i would like to share my experience of making a japanese wm6.1 rom for hermes here.
actually, it is not that difficult, and all i did was just assembling pieces from different official roms. so, i would NEVER call it my OWN rom or anything because every part of the original roms was developed by MS and HTC. (sorry, but i really think it's too funny many people, who know slightly better than others, put their names in the ver info, apply procection or whatever to their roms, and say "this is my own rom!" for something made out of other roms originally built by MS and HTC.... is this place for dev info sharing for similar-minded guys? donations?? c'mon!)
i will explain about the details step by step later. here's a rough tutorial.
things you need:
[tools]
Pandora Kitchen (thanks to mattk_r) for cooking and burning

or
i prefer bepe's Extended Hermes Kitchen for WM6.1

G'Reloc.exe as usual

[roms]
bepe's kitchen (thanks to him!) for simple and working oem folder and xip (OEMXIPKernel only)

htc hermes official wm6.0 rom simply for os.nb as a template
http://rapidshare.com/files/46467733/HTC_TyTN_WWE_3.54.255.3_6275_1.48.00.10_108.exe
htc kaiser (or opal) official wm6.1 rom for dpi_96 files
http://rapidshare.com/files/157469239/Kaiser_HTC_ASIA_HK_WWE_3.34.721.2.rar

s11ht (japanese emobile kaiser) official rom for 0411_dpi_96
ftp://htc-jp.com/EM/S11HT_firm_V2_6_881_0_JPN.exe
[basic strategy]
[oem]
1) bepe's oem folder is very simple and clean for cooking (some modifications are necessary in *.rgu files, tho)
2) replace OEM.cer by the one from x04ht rom
[rom]
1) basically, you can take OEMXIPKernel from bepe's xip or from htc hermes official wm6.0 rom
2) MSXIPKernel and MSXIPKernelLTK are from x04ht rom or whatever you want
3) use os.nb from htc hermes official wm6.0 rom just as a template
[sys] (tricky)
1) the base is opal sys. but remove all the language specific (0409) folders.
2) take the language specific but non-vga folders from x04ht, x05ht or whatever wm6.1 japanese rom (0411 folders not including dpi_192)
3) take language specific qvga folders (the 0411_DPI_96 folders) from s11ht
4) take .vm folder, packages.* in metadata folder, and service.exe in os folder, shell32.exe and shellres.dll in shell folder from hermes official or bepe's sys. (irda is not included in opal rom. take them from bepe's rom if you wanna use irda.)
[points]
1) don't forget to copy WinCENLS_Lang_0411 into your sys. otherwise, the device does not boot since WinCENLS_Lang_0411 is not included in xip.
2) if you take sys from any newer versions, taskmgr does not work since it is not signed by softbank. remove mxipupdate_taskmgr_shell_1.provxml in base_lang_0411. it's useless, anyway.
3) this method does not create shotcuts in windows\appbuttons. you need create those shortcuts with japanese names yourself to make the buttons work properly. (does anyone know how these shortcuts are automatically created?)
4) os ver info is stored in the original files. (read here for details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1172925&postcount=1) you can change the ver info as you want, but i REALLY hate to see ver info with someone's name or some personally customized splash screeens. so, the ver info does not reflect the actual ver you take all the files from.
5) i don't think this works only with hermes but with any other qvga devices (you have to change xip part.) hope many other qvga device users can make (assemple?) their own japanese wm6.1 roms freely.
question:
i made a shortcut file with 14 japanese (2 byte) letters and put it in the windows directory, but the hermes did not boot. i changed the name to 13 japanese letters, and then it booted... are there any filename restrictions for east asian language files??

reserved for step-by-step guide

here is the japanese wm6.1 cooking base files for hermes

note: i did not modified the ver info in shellres.dll.0411.mui, and the ver info shown in control panel does not reflect the real os ver.
note2: this file is just for cookers. i will not provide the rom tuned up for my own use. i will not response to "please send me your rom" requests. (sorry)

you can use these files FREELY since i simply assembled them from the other roms. they don't belong to be from the beginning. (.VM is not included. take it from another hermes rom to cook it!!)
happy new year, and happy cooking!

Congrats and welcome to hermes cooking sir. if you need a copy of a unprotected rom of mine, just let me know, PM or post
Peace sir,

I'm Andy. Thank you very much, qtotter-san.
Lately I've been thinkin about changing my handheld (I'm using BA and MPx200 at this moment). But, despite my condition as a Japanese language student, I would love to have a Handheld powered by Japanese Windows OS. To buy Japan's handheld seems to expensive for me, so I decided to search for Japanese ROM first, then decide which one shall I buy.
I've been searching all the time for Japanese ROM (not 日本語化 ROM but 日本語版 ROM FILES), n finally, look what I found here, not only Japanese ROM, but Hermes WM6.1 Japanese cooking base (very big thanks ^o^). I've tried to search in xda-developers, and some other forum, but still unable to find Japanese ROM. I'd also sent private messages to Japanese developers here, but still I have no idea where to find Japanese ROM.
And now, I found this thread. This really helps me.

Opal/Diamond Dialpad
if you use opal dialpad with japanese wm6.1 rom, smart dialing stops working. i happened to find a solution while playing with my diamond. just delete the following reg key to make smart dialing work.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\PhoneKeyMatch]
"SmartFilterFlags"=dword:00000002
This entry is in the *.rgu of Base_Lang_0411.

Download won't start
Is anything wrong with the server?

Woops!

Can anyone give me some insight on this problem. I am porting 21159 to the Treo 700wx, and it keeps stopping on the WM 6.5 startup screen. I can turn off/on the display, but it never progress onto screen calibration or anything else.
I have replaced the gwes.exe file in order to get the rom to boot, as well as wincenls_wwe, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. At the moment, I'm stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
86 views so far, and no replies. That can't be good...

I think I might need a gwes.exe for 240x240 screen on a 211xx build. Does anyone have one?

Any progress?

Nope. No responses. I did find a 6.5 rom for the treo 750, but they removed all of the dsm files, so I can't port it. I have to try to manual piece it back together.

This is really a good build, but believe me that stabilniejszy is 21,109, this is fast

stuck at boot screen usually because of
1. wrong xip porting
2. wrong wince_nls
that is what i am facing now also

i think all of the SYS 21159 floating around have ConfettiCore package inside, so u can try any. i thought it was useless, so deleted it. but it lead to the problem mentioned above. in addition to that, i had to use TOuchFLO OEM package also of my device which i deleted coz i wanted to use M$ default touchflo.

Already tried this. Both are correct. It's not hangs on the boot screen. It's hanging on the welcome screen. Well it's not exactly hanging. I can still power it on and off. I still get the press the middle button to unlock thing. I can turn the radio on and off. It just never moves on from the welcome screen.

I pieced some of the 750 rom into my SYS. I noticed they had modified some of the .cpr files for 240x240, so I included those as well. Flashing now, we'll see what happens.
Update: Same problem. It stops at the welcome screen.

Tryed using my existing .rom folder, and shell32.dll and shellres.dll. Still no luck.

same problem since 21xxx builds with welcome-center
I'am a german rom-cooker for glofiish m800-device.
i work since over one week on windows mobile 6.5.
I'am not success today.
The Problem is:
- No Calibration (Welcome.lnk) is launched by initflashfiles.dat
but in the file the entry is included
the biggest problem, becouse the device is unusable
- The Startmenu is wrong, only a white screen open. (very small) no solution with gwes.exe from wm61 20924 sys.
- the grey taskbar on the today-screen
i have replaced gwes.exe from working windows mobile 6.1 sys 20924
i have changed shell.exe and shellres32.dll in shell-directory from sys
to change user.hv and default.hv from metadata
to delete user.hv and default.hv from metadata
to replace folder for shell
to replace folder for phone
to replace folder for redist.
to include wince.nls in sys-folder too
The wince.nls is in my xip (rom-directory) (my kitchen need the extracted version of xip.bin)
I don't know what the problem is.
I have ported XIP 21159 from Diamond, from TouchPro, from glofiish m700, from glofiish m500 and much more. I'am sure i use actually an VGA-XIP (from Diamond, 1.post in this Thread)
but i don't know which version this is (21139 or 21159 ???)
all the same problem.
i use my kitchen based on windows mobile 6.1 and included the g'reloc.exe from WM65 Kitchen (forwarder) and the wmreloc.exe.
since my kitchen is ready for wm65. all works great by compiling the new temp.dat (the flash-file for glofiish devices)
I read i must use the same sources for XIP and SYS !!!
But what are the same Sources ???
Can anyone send me an working 21159 XIP for VGA ???
When i try to port "Diamond Payload 21159" from XDA-Developers with Xipport and Xipporterex the xip is ok, but when i insert in my kitchen, the prog "buildos" stop their working, nothing happens in command-window.
So i'am very pleasent when you can send me an working source 21159 SYS for VGA and an working Source 21159 XIP for VGA...
i have big problem with windows mobile 6.5
acutally i try windows mobile 6.1 21114 there are the same problem.
the problem is, after os-logo no calibration screen come.
big problems to call "welcome.lnk"
only whenn i insert in wrong path to welcome.lnk the today-screen display ???
do you know this bug ???
here is the rgu of the welcome-center, i think it's not compatible with m800 ???
is this welcome-center new in the 21xxx-builds ???
over one week and no succed with wm65.
at the moment the same problems with wm61 21115

hey guys any solution to this problem? I've been facing it on my Samsung i780.. damn this won't move past the Windows mobile logo.. yet it plays the welcome screen sound.. what a shame..

chef raven,
not trying to hijack your thread but can you please answer my PM.
i've been waiting for weeks now.
thanks

My kitchen wm6.1 (based on crc's 20270 v13.5)

I thought about doing another rom release, but I figured it would be just as well to release the kitchen and let you all make your own!
This is based on crc's v13.5 big storage, in ervius visual kitchen 1.8.1.
It should have everything you need to create your own rom. The dump is a cross between crc's naked and normal, but there are a lot of extra packages. It also has things like button 5 fix built in, and if you build with alt tab, it will automatically assign itself to button 5, and voice dial will assign itself to button 5 (press and hold).
If you build with glossy black bars, preconfig.txt will be used from the glossy black bars ext folder. If you don't cook in ftouchflo, make sure to remove the entries for it from preconfig (either in oem, or in glossy black bars).
Thank utaker for the batch in the release folder for setting up splash screens.
crc, ervius, bepe, anryl, and others did all the hard work, so if you want to donate, give to one of them, I just packaged it all here.
Happy cooking!

If you can find a rom to download, you can attempt to dump it using this kitchen.

Hey boog thanks a lot!!! do you think that there is a way to merge 6.1 and 6.5 in the same kitchen?
I mean if the kitchen is multibuild... multi lang, multidevice... why not to be multi core??? but i guess its not due to the change of the kernel but... maybe switching betwen the builds and OEMXIPKERNEL...
Thnaks again for the kitchen i will take a look at this.

I don't see why it couldn't be multi core! Or build 6.1 with a 6.5 xip. I just ran a test, but I don't have time to flash it (yet), I need my phone for work today.
6.1 built just fine with a 23017 xip from utaker's dv5 kitchen, as long as you left the real 6.5 aku unchecked (it will error, I believe utaker has the real 6.5 nk.exe in there). I renamed my original rom folder to ROM_61, then just dropped the ROM folder from utaker's kitchen in. That way it has all the files to make it happy in 6.1 or 6.5, now I just need to try loading the 6.5 pieces in.
It appears the rom will not boot using a 6.5 xip.

Looking at the differences in the rom folders, the os.nb.payload files are different size, and there are different files. I'm still not totally sure what they all do.
I may have to experiment to see if there is a happy combination.
