[Help Needed] How to change the ROM date ?

How can i change the rom date ?
the patchers from the kaiser kitchen ain't working for the Hermes,
thanks all for the help.
Jimmy

Jimmy,
My searches haven't turned up anything definitive, but I HAVE seen some mention of the date being held in file S000 in the NK.EXE module. I cannot examine this possibility right now, but maybe I'll have time when I get home tonight.
In the meantime, I would love it if somebody could post a definitive method that works for WM6 devices. It sure would be nice if, when I flash a new ROM, I didn't need to bounce forward 8 months to set the time in initial setup

Thanks Assassin ... but, checking my ROM dump, it seems my base ROM does not contain a module named NK.EXE. Instead, I have an actual file by the name of NK.EXE in my XIP folder. Thus, there aren't any "S00?" files to work with.
Does anybody know of any other place I might be able to change this ROM's date?
TIA,
-pvs
[EDIT]Weird, I used a binary editor, found the date string inside of NK.EXE, and successfully changed it. I cooked the newer version of NK.EXE into the ROM, and ... the ROMDate was still the same. Sheesh! It would seem there should be SOME way to change this thing.
Can anyone please give some other suggestions?
Thanks again,

[SOLVED] Battery Text Bug ?

Hello everyone.
I have a very big problem, I've created my own rom, and is steadly on a BIG problem, in my eyes.
The idea is that when you go in and edit on how much light you will have have on the screen, then this come (look in the picture)
I have made so much on this rom, so I am totally lost, do some1 have experienced with something like this?
/ Danny
----- EDIT -----
The problem is solved, I have deleted powerexe.exe.xxxx.mui , i added it, and it did the trick.. ^^
Thanks Lost in translation

Hi,
this is typical for a missing mui-file. If I remember correctly, the control panel's file is battery.cpl, so the right mui should be battery.cpl.xxxx.mui - xxxx depending on your country's code.
This file should be part of a package which contains several localizations.
If the mui-file is present in the windows-folder, then it's probably an incompatible version which does not work with the release of battery.cpl that you have cooked into your rom. You can test a new version for compatibility by replacing the current version with a new one. This is best done with Total Commander CE which is freely available from ghisler.com
Have fun!

I have looked everywere in the orginal rom, and i can't find' it?
Can you upload maybe the english file of the battery ?

I think i found out, what my mistake was. The name of it is powerexe.exe.xxxx.mui .. I will try to cook the files down now, and see if it works

[PRJ+ROM][UPDATAD:2009.01.05]WWE.KitchenTree. "LEGO" mode. Ready for cook.

As is.
Just press the "!COOK.CMD" file. (or make your changes before)
Old opinion:
>>8M of PP - after long time of testing looks as the optimal size for performance/RAM.<<
New opinion:
12M PP looks bit more responsible to interface.
New packages & drivers.
Tweaked several packages - for less memory use.
Tried to put all possible configs in one OEM/xxxconfig folder.
UC ready, - look to _ADDS/Internal Storage forder for example.
Mark all content of "Install" forder as "read only". Or you loose it after install or hard reset.
The best way - look inside "provision.zip" and make your own config file. Put it in "Install" folder and line as
"XML: \Storage\Install\provider.xml" to "sdconfig.txt".
Password for provision.zip you can find at the help page of Connection setup.
You need unsigned HardSPL!
Don't forget about hard reset after first install & make content of "Internal Storage/Install" READ ONLY!

It's only "timepoints" of my kitchen. With bugs, mistakes etc.
Will be glad to see opinions, founded bugs, new ideas.
EVERYBODY CAN USE IT AT ALL, if they use it for private ROM or follow the same "open" politics.

i get errors when extracting. winzip says its corrupt and win rar says invalid or corrupt authenticity information. win rar will complete the extration, but i'm not about to flash anything when there are errors. maybe upload again?

If I can do anything, just let me know...

hi,
at first, i have the same problem with extracting (3.8) and authentification,
but it extracts ... i dont know, if some files wouldnt extract?
the second is
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH" !
where you are the last weeks during i flashing my rom with kaiserkitchen
(it's very good, but for beginners its very strong ... with a liitle time spend
and reading here and reading there its gone) ?
i cooked my own rom ... i think its 3 houers before ...
its always the same - iam finishing with this one - than an other cooker/flasher puts a new thread and all the works begin at zero.
but that is it what we love i think.
i will use my rom for 3 or 4 houers than i will test/use your kitchen
thank you for your work.
okokur
p.s.
my english is not so good and the time its gone to morning,
my comment to your thread means positiv/happy. it dont means any angries

Hello!
I repeat: it's not "my" kitchen.
"My" is only changes in OEM/SYS/ROM folders.
I like this kind of kitchen for useful "stepping".
Forgot, where did I find it. Somewhere here
Bit later will be update to 20757 (HD ported).

This kitchen seems of no use to me.
It needs .nb, .wrn and other files which are'n present.
Maybe some explanating how to get them, I would like to try it.

Just press !COOK.CMD.
May be damaged archive? Check the md5 sum to arh.

Ok, sorry it's working now...
Another question: a lot of files are from date 10th of July, for example the manila files. Does this mean these files really are so old???
The latest versions of manila are of a newer date are they?

Marked "stable" original Diamond manila.
If you want the alternative - look to the "_OUT" folder.

Updated to Blackstone's XIP/SYS 20757.
Manila updated to last "official": 1.1.35097.1_1630.38
Style to gray.

I just got my Diamond 2 weeks ago. I cook my first ROM using your kitchen tree but I have some questions:
1. Why the setting up screen is all black ? I thought there were some sort of Windows Mobile 6 background
2. I tried to set up bluetooth but it shows me a message box with something like "No bluetooth hardware"
I follow the instructions by just clicking !Cook.cmd. I didn't change anything in your packages. Did I do something wrong ?
Please advice. By the way, thanks for this kitchen tree.

It's just my choice: less using rom/ram memory. And not important at all. You can use yours pictures. It is the kitchen, isn't it?

I coocked my ROM with version 20755: everything's fine here with bluetooth (and all other stuff). I use bluetooth for my carkit, works fine.
I benchmarked this ROM with my usual benchmarks: it's pretty fast compared to others! I left out Opera and Google Maps, but I don't think that makes a big difference in benchmark results.
I will try your Blackstone upgrade this evening, I'm curious if that's faster than the 20755... (in fact I don;t think so).
There is one strange thing in this one: I can't change pagepool. Using pagepoolchanger.exe it says it can't find the right address...
Keep you informed...

Thank you mondilv for the this kitchens! Great job

PagePoolChanger DOES work on most 'normal' Diamond ROMs, I've used it many times before. But I guess it conflicts with the uldr thing... no problem.

here friend... like mentioned in a PM sent you this morning... I'm porting some pieces of your base sys/xip for including in my rom (dia duit), of course I'll mention that the base rom comes from your hard work
instead of upgrading the whole sys I prefer to choose faster/smaller dlls between different sys
anyway also my rom is open, because I strongly believe that this is the only way to proceed to a faster development... by sharing infos each other
but I'll prefer to share the whole kitchen on my 1st stable release, now we are at v08, because till now my rom has some bugs
thx mate!
bye,
davide

here how to change PP on diamonds:
open final .nbh file with a hex editor (I use pspad)
search the following hex value: 389FE550089FE5
as you find it change next two numbers (in an original rom, these two values are 00 25)
search again for the same hex value, again you need to modify the adjacent two values (in case of an original rom, these two values are 03 25)
values:
for pp 0 Mb: 00 25
for pp 8 Mb: 02 25
for pp 12 Mb: 0C 26
for pp 16 Mb: 10 26
of course I wasn't able to find alone... I found thx to the great & nice Seatone
have fun

I was bad surprised too. Quite big diff between close versions. About 5%, isn't it?
After trying several combination of xip/sys me like 20755 at last time.
Or xip757/sys755 - no bad too.

Early, I think. Can't to call its rom stable. Just found more bugs, think not the last for today (lighting for missed call is absent; green element in manila)
I return to home now, so new version could be tonight.

Word of warning:
Not all EXT's have been tested or modified for the every device. Please test test and test and then let me know which packages don't work and what YOU've done to fix them. (I don't have time to fix ALL of them by myself.) Some packages will only be compatible with some devices.
(I'm no longer updating each thread separately for each device but just updating my site and posting the release info here. I will only update each thread to say that a new version is out.)
**Warning**
Before using this kitchen, you MUST read the whole thread. Any questions that have been answered will be ignored. This is your only warning.

Active development instead of a program that is no longer being developed
Cleaner and easier to use interface
A built-in and customizable Tutorial section
And more!
Builds included
21056 - WM6.1

​
At the moment, this is an ENGLISH (WWE) only kitchen. This might change...
NOTE: In order for me to keep track of whether my time was well spent or wasted, if you use this kitchen to make a ROM, please either include SJK in the name or just mention that it was SJK cooked in your ROM's thread.
NOTE: This kitchen assumes that you know how to flash through SD, recover from a bad flash and are able to backtrack your steps to figure out how you broke your own ROM. If you do not understand these, please learn them first. Do not PM me asking me. I have written numerous walkthroughs on all these except on how to backtrack your steps. For that, just remember what you're doing as you do it and keep backups.
If you find any issues, PLEASE report them to the bug tracker in my website. It will help me make this kitchen better!
ENJOY!!!​

Well ... I have repaired my Hermes yesterday and now I'm trying ROMs here and none of them really suits me.
So your SJK came in the right time. I did few ROMs for myself last year, so I'm gonna try your SJK probably this evening.
And if it will work flawlessy, I'm considering donation.

Impressive..
Downloading and will hopefully be trying this out soon.

Let me know if you run into any problems with the native nk and changing the pagepool. (I don't have a test device, unfortunately.)

I am cooking a 23529 native build now and will know here soon

Well, I have built 6.5.x ROM with native kernel and 16MB pagepool. I didn't add anything in the ROM and I'm missing Camera, CommManager, ClearStorage and stuff like this in the ROM. Suppose I have to add them externally.
Now I'm gonna try adding some things and changing pagepool etc.

You have to actually add them in the EXT packages. They are not built in so that you can choose your own. I stripped the OEM and created packages of all required programs and made them into EXT packages.

Ooops, my bad. I've just extracted EXT, SYS, SJK, HERMES archives and didn't check the wrong paths. Because everything puts itself in Sources and the EXT has got Working_Folder/EXT instead of Sources/EXT.
I was wondering why I can't see any EXT things in the osKichten.exe

I must be doing something wrong then cause mine won't go past the boot screen using native. I used everything default. Will try again.

This has happened to me the first time i tried this Kitchen ... then I've tried it again and it worked.
But I'm havning problem with the EXT. I can't select packages from the folders. I can just select folders. :\
EDIT: Ok, I surreder - where are the C_cingular, C_xyz.cab things? I can't find them anywhere to get rid of them.

Well, the first issue (not showing apps) was cause by the 0.7 version instead of 0.8 ... i really should give more attention to what I'm downloading.
The EDIT line, about C_Cingular_GoodEmail*.cab, PT_Cingular_Whitelist* etc. - those are apps which are automatically installed after first boot. I suppose it's cause by the line "EXEC:\Extended_ROM\autorun.exe" in PreConfig.txt in OEMOPERATORS. But - where does that autorun.exe has it's config? and where's Extended_ROM in the Kitchen? Because afaik it isn't the same as EXT?
EDIT: I got an idea - aren't those cabs just remains of the ExtROM from AT&T ROM? Then, howto delete them? By making my ROM BigStorage? :|

For now, just remove the preconfig.txt file.
Please report any future bugs to the bug tracker. (There are way too many threads to keep track of all of them.)

I activated you manually. I'm not sure why it's not sending out the emails. I'll look at the code of the site.

I take it this isn't bigstorage? If not do you plan to have one bigstorage? I'd like to be able to do bigstorage in 6.1 and 6.5 and this looks like my best option..
thanks

Since the bugtracker is broken:
These things are buggy:
any Connection Wizard - I can't get it to work
Dialer - Every dialer is buggy and if I try to cook there else OEM Dialer (found by google), it doesn't work too
ClearStorage - doesn't do hardreset
Then I'd appreciate battery.dll which is by 1% and not 10%.
Making the ROM BigStorage would be a big plus too. And AFAIK I shouldn't have 39MB RAM with 6MB PagePool? 39MB is for 16MB PP, right?
MrDSL, are you experiencing anything of these issues too?

Strange. I'll have to test the connection wizards on the wing.
The dialers work fine on the wing. Does the dialer named Hermes work? (It's directly from the Hermes.)
ClearStorage - Your device might require an older clearstorage. I'll have to look for one.
That sounds like the native 6.5 nk isn't getting its pagepool changed.
I'll see about that. The Hermes 6.5 nk is notorious for most pagepool tools not working on it.
As far as the bigstorage. Give me a link to it and I will see about including it.

well, i'll try the not-native kernel (what disadvantages it has anyways?)
about bigstorage & clearstorage & dialer - i'll do some searching and testing and send you working links (since you don't have testing device).

Help For updating wm6 XIP to wm6.1

First thx for helping me
I was trying to port a XIP from Touch Cruise
Yet it cant even boot in the system [only suck at the screen with the red words at the bottom]
Any clear tutorial for me. Thank you

You cannot just use the XIP from another phone.
You must get the XIP split into OEMXIPKernel and MSXIPKernel so that you can combine the new MSXIP with your existing Trinity OEMXIP.
And most of the time you would need to use the new build's SYS packages that go along with that new MSXIP.
What kitchen are using? Ervius Visual Kitchen?

Yes i am using Ervius Visual Kitchen
What i do is using the xipporterex to port the xip.
I even tried to follow the bepe tutorial from darkforceteam with bepe kitchen.
Yet same error occured.
Would u mind giving me a clear step for making it workable?
thx

Sorry but I have always used pre-extracted XIP/SYS bundles from people like Da_G that I then put into my kitchen. So I am not sure I can give you a full step through for porting the TC xip/sys from scratch.
One thing about the OEMXIP though, whenever I have used xipporterex I usually discard the generated ROM\Trinity\NEWBUILD# and replace it with a copy of my existing ROM\Trinity\OLDBUILD# (I just rename the folder to the new build number). It is just the ported ROM\Shared\NEWBUILD# folder that you want.
Again, you are also using the SYS\NEWBUILD# folder aren't you?

Sorry but I have always used pre-extracted XIP/SYS bundles from people like Da_G that I then put into my kitchen. So I am not sure I can give you a full step through for porting the TC xip/sys from scratch.
One thing about the OEMXIP though, whenever I have used xipporterex I usually discard the generated ROM\Trinity\NEWBUILD# and replace it with a copy of my existing ROM\Trinity\OLDBUILD# (I just rename the folder to the new build number). It is just the ported ROM\Shared\NEWBUILD# folder that you want.
Again, you are also using the SYS\NEWBUILD# folder aren't you?

Oh man! You are genius!!!
My rom comes bootable after renaming the folder!
That's so fantastic
Yet the xip of the system seems hasn't update [still the old build ]

Update
I used the old Build.. therefore, my device is bootable....
Yet when i choose back the new build, ext xip and sys as the neew version,
it suck again at the screen...
Thx man i know u have tried a lot to figure out my problem.
Is it possible or better, if i upload my kitchen for u to check?

Oh thats easy. The "Rom Version" (that shows on boot) just needs to be patched (it is reading it from the copied OEMXIP).
Just go back into the Porting window then click the button "Find Date/Version on \ROM\Xip\"
That will populate the Rom Date and Rom Version fields.
You can then edit those fields and click each of the "Change" buttons to patch the newer Date/Version into the OEMXIP
You can also set the PagePool value using the "Change PP to Mb" function (it is not possible to query the current PP value however it does tell you what it previously was when you change it). You could always set it to something sensible like 4 or 6 and see what it was before that.
EDIT: If you were actually talking about the CE OS build number that shows in "About Device" then that is much harder to change. It is embedded somewhere within the MSXIP (requires hex editing I am not familiar with - and that is effectively make a "fake" build anyway).

Oh, sorry just saw this ... yeah probably better to just do that.
Just curious but why on earth do you want to port some old TC 6.1 rom anyway?
There a plenty of functional WM6.5 xip/sys bundles that we can/have ported to Trinity. Even if it has be WM6.1 there are surely newer releases of 6.1 xip/sys to choose from?
EDIT: Just a heads up but I am about to go offline for the night (end of the work day in my timezone) so if you do upload I will not reply until tomorrow.

It's ok, would u mind pm or post some link which release those stuff?
Thank you very much!

Check it when u hav time
really really thx

You could extract the 23102 wm6.5 build from my last kitchen release:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5547181#post5547181
I have modified EVK slightly to allow it to build either p3600i or Trinity ROMs from the same kitchen but still there is a full QVGA xip/sys bundle there for 23102 (give or take a few sys packages).
Got to go, will try and be more helpful tomorrow

Yes I got it~ Thx
it is great
OK and now i am going to mod it~~
Yet just before i start, would u like suggesting me some post that is most updated and clear enough for me such a newbie to work around it?
Thx

Go and find SuperSport's Tutorial Video for using Ervius Kitchen.
I have broken up the EXT packages into categories to make it simpler for new chefs but the basic concept is the same.
I have included pre-built ROM profiles to make it very simple to build ROMs out-of-the-box.
Just got to "Load ROM", choose one for your phone (P3600i or Trinity) and the click "Create ROM" to build it.
Load a few different profiles and look at what changes in the settings. That should help you see what is going on.

1 more question
I downloaded a XIP SYS Pack from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650783
However there are 5 Folders
How can i port them into the kitchen?
Thx for that

OK, this technically requires more time than I can spare to explain thoroughly ... but maybe if I just outline the steps you can do some google searching to work out exactly how to do it:
- First you need to clean up the SYS for you needs. For Trinity you need to have QVGA sys structure so that means only 96DPI and 320x240
- That means sorting the SYS package folders into an EVK SYS structure and removing the other DPI and resolution folder structures.
- Go get XIPDumpSoter (or whatever it is called now) by teh penguin so that you can use it to automatically sort the folders. Then delete any that are for other DPI or RES (eg: 192DPI or 640x480, etc). You _only_ want 96DPI and 320x240 (and of course any that are non-res specific)
- That should give you the folder structure to put into \SYS\NEWBUILD#\
- You will need to copy over the WINCENLS sys package from your existing SYS as that will not be in the new SYS (there are other replacement folders like SQM_DUMMY, and also some that we often just delete but you can learn that stuff later)
- We have already discussed what you need to do with the MSXIP
- Lastly, (and this is really very much the "art vs sicence" part), you will need to go through and "recmod" a certain number of "modules" within certain sys packages.
I simply don't have the time right now to get into recmod but if you google you will find plenty of helpful posts explaining it. I think there is even a basic recipe of what to recmod for 64M users done by JooJooBee ... that would get you going.
Put simply, at this stage you need to read read read read read lots of chef threads to pick up the finer details. Sorry I am too busy at work to be any more help than this.
Good luck.

Thank you for spending time on me
I know it is rather annoying to explain a few things
Really Really Thank you for helping me
I hope that my post could be a guide for others
Update:
The rom is still unbootable after a day of trying.
Does the OEM section be edit before updating the build?
Such as initflashfiles.dat [I read the in the tutorial that it should change to the native 6.5]
May be i started from the wrong step?
What i concern is that wm6 may not suitable to update directly to wm6.1 or wm6.5
Thank you for spending much time on helping me
If it can be google, simply give me the keyword,
I will finish the entiry
And finally, thank you!!

I'm actually going to bed before 3am tonight, so I will not be long here, but I just had a thought. When you cook the ROM, are you checking "Real WM 6.5 AKU" in the Kitchen? Don't do that. You cannot actually use a Native 6.5 Kernel on the Trinity as one does not exist. Also, as mentioned by the.Decoy before, you MUST have 'wince.nls' in your Kitchen somewhere or it will not boot. Thirdly, try cooking a version without ANY Extended packages. Only the original XIP and SYS and see if that boots. When you get that going smoothly, start adding EXT packages. Good Luck!
I'll check back in a couple days to see if you've made any progress. If you'd like to send your kitchen to me also, I'd be happy to look it over and see if I can find anything wrong in there.

Again and Again
I keep remind myself that Native 6.5 Kernel should be checked
OMG The Bug is here
And Thanks Decoy
Thank You
Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!
================================
Update:
I saw a folder called 0_ROM_Version in EXT Shared
What is it and what function does it have?
Thx

Ummm are you trying to use a freshly extracted OEM from an official ROM?
If so then yes, there is a massive amount of conversion that must be done to it before you an cook it into a rom. Even before you break it up in to components and edit all the reg and dat files ... you first need re-sign everything with an SDK cert because you won't have the official cert that HTC built them with.
Seriously. If you are just starting out then use an existing chef's OEM (use mine or anyone else who has posted a kitchen).
Even I have not yet ever had the time to complete build an OEM from scratch (not that I don't want to one day). I was always just adapting the OEM that Chanvi had provided us in his kitchen, primarily because he had already done all the work to make it mesh with WM6.5

I am bit confused by what you said there
As Supersport explained, we do not have a Native 6.5 kernel for Trinity.
So that option should not be checked.

Again, this is why I said to try "Load ROM" and see what happened
Those are just simply EXT packages which contain 1 single provxml. Each one sets the registry value for "ROM Version" (the info that comes up in "About Device" in Settings). There is one for every type of "Saved ROM" you can build from that kitchen.
I created them so that people could build each of the several types of rom from my kitchen but never need to edit the provxml files to change what the version info was.
If you are going to try cooking your own roms, the best advice I can give you is find a text editor you like and just start opening up ALL of the REG DAT RGU and PROVXML files you can find and see what they are doing.
You can even do it from within EVK. Select the type of file on the left panel called "Editors" (or just select "All") then click "Show Editor". You can open the files it finds by double clicking them in the panel on the right.
Anything custom that ever happens in the setup of a rom is controlled by these files.
If you want to see how something works (or what it does), just open up the files and read them

Sorry, wt i mean is that my rom become bootable after unchecking it
~~ That is so amazing ~~
Now i am Reading the horrible, endless.....etc tutorial, [I can finally have my own rom ]
1 Question, I am trying to put a new wince.nls which content much more countries in the rom. Yet it comes unbootable after i have repalced it.
I googled around and found several solutions.
1 is that i should put it in OEM rather than SYS [I havn't ried it yet i think it won't work]
2 is that i should mod the size of the xip.bin
Therefore it is big enough to store it.
3 Adding in some registry with my selected country code
Thanks for helping me ~~

Sorry can't help you there.
I have never ventured beyond WWE lang for my kitchens.
