[SOLVED]How to change OEM version in SplashScreen on BootUp - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

hi guys.
am building my own roms these days. not totally noob but not an expert as yet.
actually i have seen many roms which have the initials of the person who cooked the rom in the splash screen on the bootup.
like you get RGD
where R is radio
G is something and
D is the OEM or ROM version.
like swtos roms have swtos written on there, aztor and IOR Morna as well.
how to do the same?
i've attached a picture though its not clear but just gives an idea.

help me someone please..

Just open the file and look for the string you want to change

well am not sure if what am gonna ask is really dumb or not but have no choice.
1st of all am not able to find hex editor and xipportex.
and even if i do then what file do i need to open to change that version?
how to use hex editor and all??

actually am using bepe's kitchen and for that there needs to be a proper XIP folder which i could only find in MORNA's XIP.
now i've added the 21038 build files to this xip but do not know what to edit to change that oem version.
my complete rom build 21038 is done and am just left with this.
Am attaching the xip folder so if anyone could change the version to " 2AHEN MAKK", i'll be really thankful to you.
Eagerly waiting for your response as i need to release the rom asap.

you need to edit the s000 file from nk.exe folder whic is located in the oemxipkernel with a HEX EDITOR.
The version number can be found at values around 3500.

here it is . i've noticed it's from xor morna. be sure to give credit to carburano when u release you rom.
good luck.

problem during cooking lvsw 0320

i have cooked successfully more than 10 roms, WWE vesion to CHS vesion, they all work fine.
but when i want to cook a new rom based on LVSW 0320 vesion, i failed. i found that the default.hv can't be transfered to txt file, once i edit this file, os can't boot and stick on the SubSplash screen. but user.hv can do that.
sorry for post this new thread but i have posted under lvsw's thread and no one answer me.
can anyone help me plz, i really like this ROM.
thanks in advance.
i had the same problem... then i came up with a briliant solutiion
you know the user.hv and initdata can be edited without any probs..also this version of the rom deploys the ext rom aswell.. so what i did was i edited config.txt and added a cab with the HKLM etc regs that go into default.hv into the dump folder and generated a rom with that cab inside..
and VOILA... now i have a custom rom with all my settings... i figured this way out after hours of frustratingly trying to edit the default.hv
hope this helps

thank u, i have tried ur solution, but there is a big problem, .cab file doesn't support chinese caracter, so edit default.hv is the only way.
dont know if this would help you but take a lot here :
www.asukal.jp/hv_rom/hive2.txt
or simply use Make_HV, found it in the development & hacking thread.
First covert the hv file to rgu (which is simply REGEDIT4 Format) then make changes and convert it back.

You don't need a .cab for this. The program that goes through Config.txt can handle XML files with registry settings directly. So, grab any of the .xml files listed in Config.txt as a template for your own .xml file. Then just add your new .xml file plus a line in Config.txt referencing this new file, and you're all set.
There's another solution which I found much more convenient: use bepe's Rom Kitchen, and import whatever ROM you want. If I'm not mistaken, it's even available bundled with a Chinese ROM already. There you can edit the .rgu files from which the Registry will be created. This eliminates the need to read any of the .hv files. Worked very well for me! Also, since bepe's kitchen recreates the packet structure of the ROM, it's so much easier to understand which files and registry entries have a dependency or belong together. Highly recommended!
Cheers

Any Unicode-capable editor will do. Personally, I use UltraEdit.

Daniel
Please don't take offense, but I'm starting to think you got the ROM as it is..."protected" that's why all the customizations are done via AutoRun.exe and xml files.
i found that lvsw 0325 edition can be edit.
qooqoo said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, 0320 can't be edited. But 0325 could. But you can't use the regular tools..you have to use the "more Storage" tool, then just manually copy the "default.hv" and "user.hv" from the "dump" folder, use the regular tool and covert it to .reg. Then you make modifications to the registry file, convert it back to .hv and copy them back to the "dump" folder..you can add files by just copying files into the "dump" folder..after you are all done with it, just continue with the "more storage" tool to make your new-os.nb

You need to use nbhextract to get the OS.nb file from the nbh... then open the OS.nb file in a HEX editor... Search for the appropriate version string and change it in HEX....
ok this is how to do this.
you need to first extract the kernel from the OS.nb
The kernel is in the XIP section, not IMGFS of the rom.
To obtain the XIP section, use rommaster.exe and dumpromx.exe
once you have obtained coredll.dll (the kernel) then Open that up with a HEX editor and search for the current KERNEL (CE) number.
Onc eyou have obtained the current CE number you then have to replace that HEX string with the 5.1.195 HEX string by editing the OS.nb.
Done.
P.S: dont ask me for the 5.2.1236 HEX string as I dont know it, my roms are based on a newer kernel than those in custel and LVSW's roms.

i am using hexedit and sorry for being litte confused but how do i do all that.
jj i would like to use your rom which works with BB but for some reason my power button stops working and i have to reset all the time and i dont want to bother you.
I used black 2.0 work good with bbc 2.1 and bbc 4.0 that is the best for my.
I'm not use black 3.01 because I have problems with my BT ( parrot ck3100) I am waiting for the new version with new drivers to BT.
Another Rom I liked is XDA 0.20, also work good with BBC, anybody know more ROMS work wiht BBC, I think the new ROMS only work good with BBC is Black 2.0, 3.0,3.01. Thanks.

I think you better wait for someone else will do this.
Black 3.5 is coming up within next few days and JJ is searching for the string night and day as we speak. Right JJ ? And then again, even thought lvsw and Sleuth255 refused to disassemble for one reason or another, I see other people on this forum, who have SDK and IDA as wallpaper and speak assembler natively, have added this task to their TODO list.
Besides, HTC shall release an official version veeeery soon.
thanks for everything sorry to bother you guys i thought it was easy to do but i am not to talented in this type of things. so i thank you all who tried to help.

Merging all the RGU to Default.hv ??

Hello there.
well, i'm trying to cook a new version of my ROM, but i have sawn on Fanman release that there's no RGU files...
Because he seems to have merged all of them in the default.hv.
I've tried, but many keys disappear when flashing it to phone...
Have you got any ideas ?
Thanks
Best regards
What kitchen are you using to cook the rom? I've been using the Core Pro kitchen but noticed that none of the changes I made to the .hv files were being included in the cooked rom so this would explain why none of yours are either. For now stick all the changes into 1 rgu file, will be much easier to insert into the hives once it is working again that way I'd imagine.
one or more .rgu, each one under a OEM subfolder, will do the trick...
do not forget their corresponding empty .dsm file !
HTH

Is that not what he already has tho? I thought the point of his post was how to get all the rgu files into the hives but since this is not currently possible (as far as I am aware, kitchen dependant of course) he may as well place them all into one rgu file.
yep, all changes are not tooked in the hv files, i wanna have only the hives to gain more spaces...
I'll try again

No more RGU = More space on ROM
This evening, i tried to copy HV after buildos and before createrom, but nothing more....
And when i looked on the temp folder of kitchen, the hv files are really small and doesn't include the hv files in sys\metadata...
Really strange, it seems that modifications in the hives of sys\metadata are not included in final rom ?!

small benefit however !
why not to stay with markquinton's recommendation : place all you updates into one rgu file.
So, i finally make it work but strangely i have more memory but software couldn't start and claim an memory error...
I can't even access to program folder
Anybody don't know why ?!
Thanks
aje_fr this is file FRE mui in Faman Rom and RGU file..!

Has anyone managed to successfully edit the hive files and have the changes included in their built rom? As I've been playing around with this for a while but have as yet still not managed it. I'm getting annoyed with having to set a lot of default settings in rgu files when they could easily be included in the hives from the start.

Test this for me

I'm working on making my SuperJustKitchen the support the Hermes and I need someone to test this sample ROM. It's not perfect, yet, or anywhere near it, but I want to know if it at least boots.
http://justkitchen.info/JustROMs/HermesTest.7z
Today is "my flashing day"! .... tested quickly .... it boots!
Woot! That's two boots so far. I just have to clean the OEM a little more and I will be releasing SuperJustKitchen v0.7 with official Hermes support.

I can only give you guys a native 6.5 kernel if you guys already have one.

I can get it to you when I get off work if you don't have it already. What do you need just the OEM*** folder that has nk.exe?
The NK should be in the XIP, so I need your OEMKernelXIP, although having your OEMDrivers probably won't hurt, either since it has newer drivers. (IF the OEM is new... I don't know if it is or if only the XIP is new.)

I had a problem with that one since its set to 15pp. The one I use is still by utak3r but has the correct pp set.
It's ok. By default the PP will always be set to 6mb on the kitchen and you can change it with a simple option.
Mind you, from now on, you will have to click on the "native 5.6 kernel" option from here on in the kitchen.
just in case
http://www.4shared.com/file/144724764/f441f2f/drivers_kernel.html
I haven't download the second link, yet, but here's a test made with the first link. It's just random programs put together. (I'm still working on stripping the OEM's of the Hermes, the Artemis and the Opal for the next kitchen release.)
http://justkitchen.info/JustROMs/HermesTest2.7z
EDIT: Forgot the link. lol
Just as Info....
The kernel that Da_G posted has PP in 15mb and the EVK xiporterexe cant change the PP, but utak3r stripp even more the native kernel... and makes it change with the nbtools.exe.. so our .bat in EVK change in the line to allow nbtools change the pp.

It's not going to be ported to the HD2. I believe the rules say HD2 users should keep to the appropriate forum. And you'll get Mango eventually. There was a thread on the changes to updates that might make things easier, check it out.

its because you don't speak about xip, and to make a working kitchen/rom you would also need the xip from a dump.
