The Rom Koch at the moment does not support .nb files that have been created with tadzio's ImgFsTools as of now.
I've been wondering if we can perform the following steps to rebuild the .nb file using mamaich's old ImgFsTools.
If we can repack the dump into a rom that still has the 8Mb space in it, it should be possible for Rom Koch to open the file without problems. We can, after modifying that rom, repack it with the new ImgFsTools to shrink the files again.
I have been trying a couple of ways to do this, but run into some problems along the way. I've been digging in the forums to find out what I'm missing here, but can't seem to figure it out. I might be doing something totally obsolete here, but I've seem numerous posts of people trying to customize one of the precooked rom's with the Rom Koch, and didn't get anywhere.
First Try: Just unpack the .nb and repack.
Using the old ImgFsTools, I immediately get errors that there are invalid headers in the file doing the prepare command.
Second Try: First use NbSplit, then unpack and repack the payload.
This one neatly packs the payload again using the old toolkit, but after NbMerge on the files, the file is still small. So apparently it's not just the image file that has lost some size, because that is packed using the old tools, and should include the 8Mb free space. Seems like I'm mixing things up here, so have to try this another way.
Third Try: Same as above, but when repacking, use a different template.
I follow the steps that give me a smaller .nb file from the second try, but when repacking, I provide a both the old and new toolkit a template file of a fixed size rom. This packs the smaller rom data in a 67 Mb .nb file, so looks promising. Rom Koch still throws a DivideByZeroException though, so while I got (my test rom) the Black V2.0 rom in a 67Mb .nb file, that's not the problem.
Am I trying something remotely possible here, or should we just wait for an updated version of the Rom Koch to customize the precooked roms? Obviously, the new ImgFsTools do a lot more than just creating a smaller .bin file.
wait for koch v2.
It can be done and I've done it before using Jasjamming method.
Steps:
1. Prepare a good untouched version of any WM6 rom version ( No free space tweak by Tadzio's Toolchain) - Will be used as shell rom
2. Dump the WM Black 2.0 rom using Tadzio's toolchain only ---> Dump folder will be created: Do not delete
3. Use aWaiter and make imgfs_raw from the rom taken from no. 1 : Do not delete
4. Use normal imgfs tools to compile the dump directory using the imgfs_raw from no. 3 (Shell)
5. Make a new .nb file with the size of 67.7 MB.
actually guys... it's simple.
take an NB, split it into the dev data and the payload.
take the payload, and dump it... play with it, whatever, but remember to re-merge after you're done.

Sounds great, but I am waiting for Koch 2 that is even easier
Thanks guys, I guess I've been thinking too hard on this one.
Just wanted to try this to conveniently experiment with the precooked roms, but I guess convenient is when Rom Koch is upgraded...
I'll give the above suggestions a shot.
This post has 2 questions.
Intro: I have a HTC HD flashed with Dutty's 3.7 XT ROM MSVC. I have used HD tweak as the tweak tool.(I am not sure this is relevant).
1) I downloaded Diamond tf3d config and installed it. I tried running it and get an error as soon as it starts. I tried the standard fixes including deleting the tweaks file as well as ensuring the "PressureThreshold" key is a DWORD. It makes no change, the program still gives an error. Could anyone suggest a fix.
2) I want to use tf3d config only for installation of .theme files. Is there an alternate app to do this? Also I know that i can just extract the .theme file as a zip file into the windows folder and restart touchflo for changes. However how do I remove the theme? I read somewhere that I can just delete the replaced files and the original files will be self re-generated. Is this true?
Please respond.
I Dont Believe That Diamond TF3D Config Functions Properly With New Manila Someone Feel Free To Correct Me If I Am Wrong
Well, now that you mention it I remember that tf3d config worked for the stock rom which has old manilla, and doesn't work with dutty's rom with new manilla which I am now using.
So if I cant use tf3d config does anyone know an alternate way of installing .theme files other than tf3d config.
Yeah I'm interested in alternative ways to install themes aswell, can't get TF3D Config to work at all
Yeah, I finally found out that tf3dconfig does not work with the new manilla. to install the theme, change the file extension of the theme file to zip, extract and replace the contents in the windows folder. Am not too sure how to uninstall.
All this information was found after 4 days of searches in xda. the search function on the site does seem to be strange as I ended up with the relevant result on the last page.

tried the same, didn`t work also for me. waiting for the working cab, would be very nice
Here: cab file

Net CF 3.7
the cab works fine on my Tytn II, but I don't know the differences with the previous version 3.5
Any official statements already? Don't want to add any beta crap in my ROMs ...
What's new in this release?
Files, Modules?
In this OEM package there is only a single module (netcfd3m3_5.dll). In the original .NetCF 2.0 and the updated .NetCF 3.5 OEM packages there are six modules. My understanding is that it is better for memory if files are module'd (?) so can any of the other files be converted?

Cooked into my ROM and fine so far also.
HERE you will have the current .NET Frameworks including v3.7
Cook into ROM that have v3.5 before, up to now running smoothly.
I have created a cab for HTC YouTube Application version 2.6.20111727.00 from latest Touch Pro 2 build but when i try to install it i get the message installation was unsuccessfull. Why is that? I created the cab using WinCE CAB Manager.

maybe it needs certs to be installed.
And how can i do that?
Got the same problem and i have certs installed.
I'm having the same problem creating a CAB for my WM6.1 ROM.
The main reason why I want this v2.6.x version to work is that it starts YouTube movies right after you hit a link inside Opera. The 2.5 version CAB does work on my TouchPro2 but does not open the YouTube link. Instead it opens the program and I have to search for a video to view it.
What did I find out so far?
The following file causes the install problem: ProtocolHandler.dll
After you remove this file from the CAB it installs just fine. But the program still doesn't run on my device.
I manually imported all retificates and when I try to start YouTube it shows: " 'YouTube' is not a valid Pocket PC application."
I copied the files myself to the phone memory and imported the registry entries but when i tried to open the *.exe i got the same message.
Where did you find the version 2.5 cab?
I created it myself as it is part of the User Customization of my Cosmik Debris ROM.
Could you upload it?
Here you go....
How can i sign the YouTube.exe with another certificate or none for that matter? Or how can i import HTC certificate?
On 2.6 I used the .CER files from a Kitchen I use. I justed put them on my device and opened them using TotalCommander.
For 2.5 this probably is not nescacary for me since the files are from the Kitchen I use for my ROM. I do have to say that I only use optimized CAB's that work with my Cosmik Derbis ROM. Reason is that my ROM is compressed and stript from a lot of stuff I never use. Therefore I can not guarantee that the CAB wil work on other WVGA devices.
Is this a right place for youtube application, XPERIA X1 ROM Development !!??
No it's not...
How can I open a special YouTube video (with url) with the original HTC YouTube Player 2.6? What is the url parameter? How can I add the "?v=xxx" parameter to the player?
I used a program called Unsigner (and batchUnsign) to remove the certificates from all files but i still get the message:
''The file 'YouTube' cannot be opened.
Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate,
or one of its components cannot be found.
If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.''
So i believe that something is missing from my ROM.
Are any other files needed?

Manilla 2.0 with weather fix added. You need goto [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Weather\0]
Edit the Following:
"LocationCode"="YOUR ZIP HERE"
"Location"="THE NAME OF YOUR TOWN"
So that you will have your local weather. You need to update your weather manually from your weather tab, and in about 15mins your home screen will update. If you want I can make a cab file with your weather information so u just need to install it and be good to go, just post your zip and city, or pm me your info and I'll post a cab for you. Here it is let me know what your all think. Special thanks to LMiller for the weather regedit information.
http://hotfile.com/dl/45643327/e89b8d3/23569_New_Manilla.rar.html
You will need your Carrier Cab. If anyone needs a link to these let me know.
You MUST have A Radio Version of 3.42.30+ for this ROM to work
Special thanks goes out to LMiller for his Manilla Oem and his help with getting me started, and to Justpctech from ppckitchens, and Wooptiewoous for some reg tweaks and internet boost.
**I'm Not Responsible for you Device**
Thanks for this new rom!
Can we have some description of what's included and excluded? and some screenshot if possible? (If it's any different from the others.. )
Nice ROM!
Clean, Fast, but a little more info needed from your install
1) Install Carrier Cab
2) Install MortScript 4.2-PPC
3) Install CDMA Weather Fix
4) Reboot
5) Install SMS Timestamp Fix
This is what I had to do for Sprint and I was getting an MSCR error on first boot until I installed Mort Script.
Otherwise, nice rom as far as speed.
Even though it is a 'Lite' rom - I'd definitely recommend adding
Mortscript 4.2
Advanced Config 3.3
PIM Backup - Latest
Please screenshot & info about Ur firmware!
I can give a general info on what's installed.
Office 2010 mobile
.Net framework 3.5
Total Commander
PHM Regedit
Manila 2d Configurator
Internet Sharing
Couple other minor utilities and I think Swype input is installed
Pretty basic Rom, no games included.
Sorry guys, been on travel and thought I'd have time to spend on the rom and everything, but had to work more than expected. This is a pretty basic rom. Some people don't like a loaded rom, and want to be able to customize it by adding what they want, so that's what this rom is for.
The rom includes:
sys 23569
Manilla 2.0.19191432.04
1 Calculator
Total Commander
PHM RegEdit
SpbScreenShot
Net Config
sms Date Fix
Rotating Clock instead of Flip Clock
Iphone type text message
ezinput keyboard
4 Column start menu
Swype keyboard
http://winbreak.com/winmo/voguegoodies/
--Carrier CABs.
I'm looking for an even "lighter" lite ROM - I want to find one with as few programs installed as possible. I can install MyPhone, Marketplace, MyPhone, etc... Total Commander is about all I'd want pre-installed, so I can edit registry settings if need be.
Perhaps I should try cooking one, myself? doubtful.
NuAngel
NuAngel, are u looking for the manilla with the weather on the home screen, or regular manilla, or no manilla?

I, myself, am a pure Titanium user, no manila. I keep it simple.

I'll make one that is completely stripped. The only thing that will be added is the what is needed to make the rom to run.
Here is the link

Sweet, thanks! I just started tinkering, kicking around the idea of my own build. Having a hard time with it though... I'll get there!

Need to send a thanks out to LMiller for his carrier provision program. It is awesome. It allows you to pick your carrier once the phone first boots up, very nice, and Thanks LMiller for your support of the vogue.

Not a problem! And Glad to help!
Make sure you have the newest version HERE!
Next step will be a full auto-installer program!
If you can get an auto installer that would be awesome. Thanks for the new version.
hello
I like the manila with analog clock the most.Can anybody give me a link to a cab file?
Yes this rom is fast and I like it.But am missing the analog clock.
One annoying problem I am facing though.Everytime I reboot the phone,the mscr error pops up although I have installed tmortscript 4.3 beta 15.Is there any way to get rid of this?
I upgraded to the TP2 now, so my vogue cooking days are over. I'm not sure why that keeps popping up on boot up. I thought it was a mortscript error, but maybe it isn't.
Hi
Ok,Thanks for your great work.But before you leave the vogue forum,will you please give me the link to the cab file of manila version with the analog cloc?
I would, but I only have it in OEM for cooking, not a cab file. Sorry.
I have bumped this because it is one of the best ROMs here, and my personal favorite.
Very stable and looks good. Give it a try.
Mike
Thanks, I appreciate the comment.
