Hi, everyone! Iīm still working on a Wizard (donīt want to touch my Hermes, yet). Iīm pretty advanced... but :confused:

I dump the [latest] original cingular WM5. I rebuilt it with office 2007 and realize that the original shortcuts are still there. Of course, they are both useless (as I have new names for the apps) and annoying (because I canīt remove them before compiling).

This is the whole point: Those shortcuts are not coming from neither an xml update for the XIP nor an initflashfiles.txt
HOW ON EARTH DO I REMOVE THEM. I canīt find what is creating and copying those shortcuts

Are they embedded in the OS.nb file? If so, how do I take that file apart?

Any help is very much appreciated!

*.mopvxml, etc had been checked.

But... what did you mean by m8?.

BTW: I will check inside os.nb now, but please give me fresh ideas :)

You may also want to check for a file called initflashfiles.dat. That contains a lot of shortcut information as well. Especially for apps that are default for that particular ROM. It should be found in the OEM\OEM_LANG_* folder in the kitchen. The (*) is the locale number. For example, a WWE ROM would have the folder as OEM_LANG_0409.

Hey, thanks! Youīre FAST!

I was about to post it. But thanks, you could have saved me hours :D

Anyways. If anyone ever reads this thread, remember: scavenging os.nb(a) isnīt that great. An automated kitchen does it all (Hypercore in this case).

I also found somebody claiming that certain shortcut came from a dll. Just keep as a sidenote.

Cheers!
