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
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1364931&postcount=1
or
i prefer bepe's Extended Hermes Kitchen for WM6.1
http://rapidshare.com/files/88850555/HERMES_DEV_v2.1_Build_19199.rar
G'Reloc.exe as usual
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1524413&postcount=1
[roms]
bepe's kitchen (thanks to him!) for simple and working oem folder and xip (OEMXIPKernel only)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1177762&postcount=1
x04ht (japanese softbank diamond) rom for most of the sys part
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2998164&postcount=1
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
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441689
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
sys: 21014
xip: 21014
oem: basically based on htc oem
http://www.mediafire.com/?3almqggzvgy (OS.NB.payload is not included. place one in rom folder.)
sys: 20931
xip: 20931
oem: basically based on bepe's oem
others: commmanager and calc replaced for the touch looks
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)
link
http://www.mediafire.com/?2gfymtframj
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,
Joshua
Very big thank for you...

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.
心から感謝を申し上げます。(kokoro kara kansha wo moushiagemasu)
Once again thank You very much, qtotter-san. I really appreciate your hardwork.

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!
Problem solved by deleting temporary internet files
updated japanese wm6.1 base to 21014
i will update msg #3 shortly.

bepe, you can use my kitchen to easily extract files/ replace files/ edit registry/ edit initflash ... i hope youll make a good translation
Gimme some work to do
Hi !
Great Idea, give me some work to do, maybe translating / checking translation, or stuff like this.
PM me
soniX
hey bepe
this is great!
same goes for me. just let me know if i can help.
help wanted
same for me...
Thanks for the offering, but I'm mostly fighting with the configuration of that ROM. The translation was the easy part, cos I was able to use things from existing German ROMs...
I think there will be a beta the next days and I would need you all to check that for bugs
You've got a guinea pig right now
If it does not brick my phone, I will help you testing out...

can you fix swedish rom
can you fix swedish rom Wm6

That’s the problem...
I don’t have a Hermes, so I cannot try it myself.
Bad thing is that I cannot guaranty that the ROMs I need tested would not brick a device.
I do my best, but no one is perfect and it is easy to brick a Hermes
asukal is testing the ROMs for me... he is a really good friend and I'm sure we will find a solution in case of bricking his device.
BTW, he will test the beta too... so it should not brick your devices

no, sorry... I can only make a German rom at the moment
1) If you substitute some files, reg values etc.. why you have to rebuild the Os and don't make a cab file installer??
2) Can you add to the first post ALL the registry keys changed & all the files substituted (and other things done)?
..also i want to start an italian translation project... but for now i'm searching spellcheck & words dictionary... and fixing keyboard issues..

the cab would be to big... about 6MB... also I think that it is better to have a clean rom

you should try my package tool
use it to build packages of your rom and you will see that there are localized packages like: Base_Lang_0409
all files inside this localized packages should be replaced
Bepe's tool is great, give it a try.
are there any news?

3.I hope you will develop this Kitchen better and share.Or share your OEM Packages or knowledges.
4.All feedbacks are welcome.
Thanksss
Vivi,
THANK YOUUUUU!!! I'd been trying to modify your ASUS kitchen with no success. The 4700 community will truly appreciate this. I agree, kozhura's rom is great.
Regards.
Thanks so much vivi! I'm so happy!
Is it possible for me to use kozhura's latest WM5 ROM as the base rom? What should I do to make that into packages and modules? Also, is there any way to calculate how much free space is left in the ROM for adding OEM packages?
Thanks again!
Thanks. This is giong to be my first "cooking" experience. A nice new way of playing around and improving the hx4700 at the same time!!
Been doing some late night cooking... tastes great. Thanks vivi for bringing this out.
Thanks for the WM5 kitchen!

Don't downplay your part here!
I'd had a tinker with decompiling the ROM but never quite got it to work right so I too am very grateful of your assistance here.
I had a quick play last night and the largest file I saw was Powerpoint, my old favourite for the largest waste of space on previous ROMs so first to go to make space for the useful stuff!
And just how can you remove Powerpoint?

Well simply deleting the 2.59MB ppt.exe executable from the SYS\Office folder will get rid of it, but how do you get rid of all the traces (registry settings, links, extensions) that are tied to it in a clean and efficient manner. I know I can manually remove associated files and such, but what happens to settings in the .dsm file? I can manually edit the .rgu files, but how do you edit existing settings in the .dsm files without breaking something?
Can I remove the "HP Protect Tools" OEM folder (15836286-5263-4a11-8b33-5087ced93124) safely, or is it required by other applications in the ROM?

And then, deleting ppt.exe will cause no harm, even if you leave there all the debris? 2.6MB gives quite a lot of room for small apps!

I delete the ppt.exe as suggested, but I go through every file also to be honest and remove anything that refers to powerpoint, the link file, registry values for 'pps' or 'ppt'.
Whilst doing this I remove other things I don't use (though to be fair this is from when I used the Universal which had a lot of extra crap in it) and tweak the registry value to those I want (though again I can't see that I need to change a lot here).
Easier and quicker is to do a search of all files for the contents of ppt and pps and delete from there.
Vivi many thanks to you,great work for users!
kozhura,
Appreciated your works so much.
You are genius and so kind.
Thanksssssssssss,

Hi,
I have looked a litlle in your kitchen and this is a very useful tooll, thanks !!
Here are my first questions :
1.
I have seen this folder in the OEM :
vivi\Enter Kitchen\OEM\b693f6e6-e6cd-4091-b8f3-40f2b988b169
It seems to regroup every phone manager. As I never used it and I don't inted to use it, can I delet this 2.38 Mo folder without any risk ?
2.
Does someone have information about changing keyboard or adding a new one ?
(I need an azerty one)
3. (harder)
Does someone have information about changing language of the rom ???
4.
How much space do we realy have left to add OEM packages ? (I have searched but I didn't find an information about it)
albertorrent, I can't help you specifically but when I play with ROMs I tend to keep the last working version and then tweak.
If it works fine, that is the new last saved version, otherwise I go back to the previous and tweak differently.
thanks, I think I 'm gonna do a lot of try.
I have an other question, (may be the last for today ;-))
How to add a font in the font folder in windows ?
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
Pre-Built ROM (NBH) can be downloaded from here:

Pre-Built ROM (NBH) can be downloaded from here:

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...
More screen shots....

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.

These files in the zip should replace the existing ones in the kitchen on rapidsahre.

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?
set of programms, etc...
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!

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:
http://rapidshare.com/files/130210385/Artemis_Diamondish_6.1_Build_19965.1.2.3.zip
I hope that it will be useful to some of you.
Matt.
UPDATE: 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:

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.
@all,
one may think of wm6.5 what one wants, comparing them roms to wm6.1 they are not my choice, though some nice effects of wm6.5 are rather nice!
I am mainly using my p3300 for tomtom navigation and phone-function in between!
wm6.5 makes tomtom runs by far more zippy, startup is reduced, recalculating an alternative route or correcting an error is done more speedily. In addition i find the graphics somehow to be far more crisp within wm6.5!
..and thats about all i really find more positive, for my usage!
wm6.5 is terrible within changing from tomtom to an incoming call, never mind trying to start an outgoing call...
the worst though is the start menue: absolutely useless to use in any way with your fingers; you always end up opening various other porgrams trying to scroll down the list
In other words:
I would be highly appreciative if someone would cook a wm6.5 alike yues extralight: speedy, stripped, light yet functional in its basics phone and gps!

I'm wanting a clean 6.5 too, but the latest builds are too buggy. I think we M$ is in the process of altering the GUI altogether and the current builds are 'passages'. Maybe we should let M$ do its thing and come out with a build which has proper finger friendly popups rather than horrible enlarged ones of the old 6.1 popups
Other than that, I'd love to cook a clean 6.5, but the ones I cooked (23034 and 23037) are extremely slow to release! If somebody tells me what files I can delete to make it faster......
WM 6.5 clean

Great, this is just the right track!
This rom is really faaassst!
Unfortunately its fully russian - anything in WWE?

p.s. its "mother" Pham Quang - build 21502.5.0.7 is just the usual "snake" again!
chances of getting some help along the way?
trying to change the language via:
"use ervius VK
1- dump a swedish ROM
2- use the swedish OEM and EXT folders
3- use the swedish ROM/Kovsky/"build no."/ folder (OEMXIPKernel), just change the old build numbers to the new build ones
4- use the new ROM/Shared/"new build no."/ folder (MSXIPKernel)
4- use the new build SYS folder, but replace all 0409 folders with swedish ones from the same SYS build or similar build (eg. you can add 23022 swedish files into a 23028 build)
5- cook"

p.s.: so you can easily access the russian wm6.5 light rom from the above post by iggord, i have uplaoded it here:

as far as i know kovsky is name of device(xperia)
so you shouldnt copy OEMXIPKERNEL of that
keep the files same from older builds just change the numbers

thats what i cant say for sure.
i tried to dump it with the latest ervius kitchen, i get a whole lot of output...but the kitchen seems to freeze at the end!
so to say, for me to do it quickly is the way, as i aint sure of what it is supposed to look like, never mind how i am supposed to go about it!
is there a small-stepped howto?
greetz
i have the knowhow but if the kitchen froze at "adding packages" the rom isn't dumpable....so you'll have to find another one...if you can find a rom that you want (doesn't matter if it's dumpabe) i can try to dump and cook it
do you want it with titanium or you want an extremely light rom

SuperJustKitchen v0.9 Released.
Go to my site: http://justkitchen.info to get the updates and the info. It takes to long to update every device's forum that is supported, and I plan to support all devices, eventually.
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.
**Disclaimer**
I am not responsible for any damage that may be done to your phone with a ROM created in this kitchen.
I am not responsible for any damage done to your computer.
I am not responsible for anything... at all.
Introducing SuperJustKitchen!
SuperJustKitchen is based on [http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=843218"]airxtreme[/URL]'s osKitchen Zero. All credit on for the kitchen backend goes to him.
Features
A completely stripped ROM. (Work in progress for some devices.)
LZX and XPR compression (Also option for No compression.)
Auto clean files that are language specific or DPI specific that your ROM does not need
Auto port missing language MUI files
Automatic rec'loc'ing for devices without native 6.5 nk's
6.1 and 6.5 support
Auto XIP and SYS porting
Auto NBH packing
Tool to convert OEM packages to EXT packages
Auto file conflict fix (don't have to removing older file that conflict (not that there are any. )
Save custom ROM settings (for cooks for multiple ROMs)
Cook multiple languages at the same time with the same ROM settings (Have to add language support yourself. I removed the required MUI's a while back because they made updating the kitchen and adding devices a nightmare.)
MUCH better organization of EXT packages
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
23658 - WM6.5 with new redesigned GUI
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.

You have have accidently downloaded v0.7 of the EXT which is a COMPLETELY different kitchen.

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.

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).
