I'm working on a custom ext rom for my department at work.
I've gotten the installers to work, and I've gotten the config files for most of the software in place..
How ever, there are a few more changes I'd like to make..
* Change Region (Very important!)
* Disable some of the default Today plugins.. (At least re-arrange them)
* Set "Owner Name", "Device name" and such..
* Change today theme.
I have a feeling that this isn't possible from the config.txt file.
So I was hoping someone could perhaps direct me to a tool that does this?
If not, what about making it?
Or can I just set it up, and then copy a file from \Windows or something?
Hi.
Neary all setting can be changed through registy.
This meand adding a cab with registry settings to ExtROM.
Read device-specific wiki... many registry keys are explained.
For editing CAB's I use softworkz ER2003edit (share/expireware).
Good luck.
sorry for this new thread but i have searched all wiki and part of forum and i haven't found any solutions.
Q1 - In LVSW rom, autorun is enabled, but in Black edition, it is disabled. can any one tell me how to modify this, i think it was defined in registry. but where? i found some things here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm]
"AutoRun"="\\Windows\\autorun.exe"
"AutoRunCFG"="\\Windows\\config.txt"
"AutoRunFlag"=dword:1
"AutoRunType"=dword:1
"TurnRadioFlag"=dword:0
Q2 - how to modify OS vesion which is displayed in Device Information.. for example:
LVSW's os vesion is always 3.22.200.2
Black 1.2 is 3.22.200.4 but Black v2.0 is Pro Black 2.0
thanks in advance.
I am not sure on your first question??
On question nr.2 this can not be any simpler. I searched the registry for the phrase "Pro Black" and found the key and changed it to whatever and that showed up under device information.

Extended ROM autorun is achieved by the following 4 steps:
1. include checkautorun.exe and checkautorun.lnk under \windows in your ROM
2. make sure that checkautorun.lnk is in \Windows\Startup. This is done with a line like
Code:
Directory("\Windows\StartUp"):-File("CheckAutoRun.lnk","\Windows\CheckAutoRun.lnk")
in initflashfiles.dat
3. add the following registry keys (or make sure they are there):
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm]
"AutoRunType"=dword:0
"AutoRunCFG"="\\Extended_ROM\\config.txt"
"AutoRun"="\\Extended_ROM\\autorun.exe"
4.Then of course you will need to have an extended rom with autorun.exe and config.txt + other stuff in it to run.
I hope this helps.

Thanks a lot for this new rom release
Any Traditional Chinese Handwrite Input function?
Thanks
As Ricky said, i would also like to thank jasjamming first...
now..
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Ricky. Your solution is the only one that works stably for reading chinese... again, thank you very much!
Hi Ricky
I just installed the rom, and I notice that the font size is funny. The default size for the menu item does not change even if i change it in the screen adjustment screen (Settings-> system -> Screen). This does not happen with your old rom...
Thanks!

Sorry that I did not include any of the handwriting software this time, I was trying to create a cab file for the Handwriting, however, everytime I installed the cab file I made the touchscreen would stop function (need to use hard reset to fix).
I'll find a solution later on... (oh well... maybe it's time to try 3rd party inputs )

Hi, I realised this problem too, it is due to a reg key for chinese to enable "line break" (not sure if you have seen this problem on the previous version or not), if you use PIE to visit chinese/japanese websites, the text would not break into lines properly.
Once I added change the reg key the line break problem solved.
what you can do is change the reg key back to english one, use the RegEdit problem in System, find the key called "SystemLCID", change the value from 404 to 409 and do a soft reset, should fix your problem
X01HT Installed and Working Well!
Well done Ricky, awesome job. I found the Japanese input pretty painful, as it didn't have the correct romaji option, instead the layout for a true Japanese keyboard, which the X01HT doesn't have.
I used Asukal's one (tried to upload, but no go) and that is exactly as it should be. You might look at replacing your's with that one.
I will let you know how it goes as I run it through its paces, but its looking impressive so far.
Now where's the Black 3.5 version
Thanks, got it!!
Sorry, got it, thanks
thanks to you and the original rom chef jj. would like to know is 簡易 input method included?

Thanks Ricky.. I notice text break problem too, and this happens even with regular English rom + CE-Star.. so I guess we can only choose no line breaks, or weird font size... :-\
I've been runing the ROM ever since it went up and haven't had to do a reset yet, whereas with the straight Black 3.01 with the hacks to get it using Japanese, I found myself resetting 5 or more times a day.
Thanks for a great stable release!
Is this rom built up from black 3.0 insted of 3.01?????
I found the Black 3.0 bug still on this ROM....
1) today theme cannot be changed(only Top/Under Bar can be changed)
2) symbol pad cannot be loaded.
how to use korean
I want use korea.
how can i use korea language.
The Voice Command button also disabled. Any idea how to enable it?
And is it possible to set the default input from '拼' to English? (For both keyboard and soft keypad) Thanks!
Ricky, can you post the Japanese SIP cab file on its own?
I'm trying to muck around with Black 3.5. and the Asukal one I've been using up until now doesn't want to work properly.
flashed this no prob. used it to replace 3des + CE Star, which was a very unstable combination.
this is working great. fine job Ricky, and also to whoever did black. Nice ROM. I love my phone again.
anyone know where there is a manual on the input methods. they take some getting used to after CEStar, a manual would help.

Really , just can't enable kansaku & tegaki. On 3.5 & all the new released roms.
Yes. All versions > 2.5 seemed not support SIP switching.
I guess some REGISTRY changed.
I switched to LVSW two weeks ago.
It works great!

Hey everyone,
got my new blackstone for 2 days now, and I got several issues, I can't fix. Would be great if anybody could lend me a hand...
first one: My "task-manager" in the top right is gone. Read about this problem and a solution by going to settings \ task manager \ button and activate it again, but everything was, as it should be...
second: my "zoom-bar" is on strike, when I enter the album, open a picture and try to zoom in, nothing happens. Google didn't give me any help about it, so maybe you got an idea.
third: Diamond TF3D gets a NotSupportedException while starting, although the two solutions given in this forum were done (enter the registry key and chance entry into something I already forgot didn't need to be done, cause it had the right "form" / and deleting "tweak.xml" didn't work either...)
So, surely you need some more information, so:
Subvendor "T-Mobile"
Rom: 1.40.111.1(49069) GER
installed programs:
- Flip-IT
- ageye G-Alarm
- Montecristoff HD Tweak
- Grumps Manila Customizer
- M$ .NET CF 3.5
- Sushi's Diamond TF3D Config
Had the Touch Diamond before and it worked perfectly, but here i got no clue. So please help!!!
