About MEGA Porting

[d_train]

Hi

I have cooked a ROM (Actually, recooked an exisitng one) and threaded SMS doesn't work - when active you can't open the SMS conversation at all - disable Threaded SMS and and all is fine.

I recreated my kitchen thinking that it may have a corrupt file, but I have replaced the SYS, ROM and OEM and it still is the same - what am I missing?

Thanks

DT

[thyogo]

It happened my the same but when I changed manually after having already sms in the inbox.
Then I cooked it in the ROM and now its working.

PS - I also noticed some strange behaviours depending on the order or they way we apply the reg changes. Right now for this tweek i'm using a normal reg file and I forced to be the last one by changing the name of the package to Zxxxx (i was not sure about this but i confirm that after changing the name some tweeks started to work properly). Other solution is always the provxml.

[d_train]

Thanks for the reply - It was registry changes that were not being applied in the correct order (somehow it changed :rolleyes:)

Anyway, got it all going again now.

Thanks for your help.

I ve the same problem with Mega port
also problem whith album, sms/mms from camera, and the dialer 3G doesn't works
I've a old style kitchen

I ve the same problem with Mega port
also problem with album, SMS/mms from camera, and the dialer 3G doesn't works
I've a old style kitchen

I think it was items from the Mega Port that caused it for me too.

the only packages I am using at the moment (as I know they work 100%) are the Power_Off, Power, DeviceInfo, TaskbarIconMgr, HTCScroll,HTCFontLink and the Redial. The 2G dialer I had from someone else's release, same dialer but different colour - so I use that one.

The rest of the OEM/EXT Packages are a mix from IOLITE, JADE and TOPAZ.


Album 3 - I couldn't get the menu to accept finger touch.
Camera from Mega didn't work, so I still Use the Nike one -I did notice that the new Ervius kitchen that I created fixed the mms/email thing for the camera - I hadn't had that working using the jerpelea kitchen.
3G dialer I use the std Nike one
M2D from Mega wouldn't launch, sure I was missing something, but haven't had time to revisit it yet.
Other items from the Mega I will test as I go - the dump all in there and hope method failed miserably :)


Hope this helps

I've tried a full Mega port too, with my french translation of all MUIs : that's catastrophic... It seems ResHack can't be used to do that properly. Maybe I'll learn english for a while ? :D

About RAM, I noticed about 35% only in use, so I think therea are packages that are not loaded (even if I think they're cooked since ROM size has not decreased at cooking).

[salvy.c.83]

new Notification_Enhancement works only if cooked in WM6.5 with HTCScroll2, HTCFramework and MEGA_Boot_Launcher, yuo need only to edit 2 mui files, work in my italian 6.5

(in 6.5 My phone console works only if yuo change dll and exe in sys with official microsoft cab one)

this is my work for the moment...

and about new keyboard? in NemanjaLO rom seems to work (only 16 key???)


(d_train change the thread name "About mega porting" or similar ;))

@salvy.c.83

done

[Antubis]

Has anyone tried jerpelea's kitchen with Mega packages ? If it works fine (it's jerpelea's work so it should work...), it could be a good starting point.

About EZinput 2, I've made it work once, when I "savagely" port Mega stuff only renaming 0409 MUIs to 040C to match my ROM language.

By my side I'll try to port packages one by one to see what ones are really needed (and most of all, who need to be fited...).

[salvy.c.83]

I use a old style kitchen (newest than jerpelea)
EZinput 2 works fine, but some problem with hardware keyboards? my 20 key doesn't work fine... :(

[thyogo]

I think i'm missing anything when i try to add notifications and menu pkgs i simple can not boot... i've added htcscroll2 and also htc framework.

Actualy right now i've added everything and is not booting... what is strange is that i already manage to put everything from mega and booting.
I will try now with 23009 maybe it will work... now i was with 23016

any hints?

[Antubis]

Sincerely no hints... For my first try I put everything like a barbarian, only renaming 0409 MUIs to 040C to make them work with my ROM and almost everything worked almost fine, then when I began to translate them the problems came...

I really think we'll have to make a full port since packages look to be original (not only by the 96DPI res, but in their structure : even MUIs content doesn't match to corresponding VGA packages versions). Maybe the problem come from an old package we use ? Since they were made for 6.1 kernel maybe they interfer with new Mega stuff ?

The porting has just began my friends, we'll have to work to get the solution...

[animelover]

For me nearly all Packages are working, both in english and german! :D

But I have two extremely annoying problems:
- RAM usage is about 85% all the way, even without M2D 2.0 there's no big difference :confused:
- my Kitchen (the Ervius one) doesn't work anymore!!! :(



By the way: my last cooking status was with Build 23004! 23009 gave me image glitches like hell! :eek:

[salvy.c.83]

I've the same problem with ram!!! I'm using 23016 buid and without manila v2 works fine! also after customization do not restart...
I've translate some mui in italian (0410) and works without problems...

[thyogo]

I've selected again the pckg from scratch and now its working (i dont what was missing :P)

I didn't use to much the phone but till now Opera is behaving strange... exiting sometimes with error msg and it is not related with flash.

About the HW Keyboards... I read somewhere that some people manage to put ezinput2 and HW working, anyone knows how?

Thanks

If anyone knows, it would be great to use the ezinput 2.1 from the Mega

似乎99%正常工作在NIKI，除了GPSTools以及我们需要一个完整的Widcomm OEM，以使用HTCMEGA CommManager，
PACKAGE_MEGA_Album与PACKAGE_MEGA_Camera运行OK!
需要几个小时去测试他们的兼容

[salvy.c.83]

In your 21827 ROM there are:
"VideoTelephony"="2_5_33904_0"
"Phone_Canvas_Enhancement_2G"="3_0_1917_1620"
if it works with video calls, can I ask you what you did please?
have yuo edit something?
Thank you

"VideoTelephony"="2_5_33904_0"是一个3G通话的dll而已，Phone_Canvas_Enhancement_2G本身就是2G面板， 它不支持3G通话，这不是我们的问题，而是它本身不支持，我们可以更换另外的3G面板

[d_train]

If I read the google translate correctly :) - it still is only 2G, so why the 3G telephony in your ROM?

I was hoping you had a solution so we could use a new 3G canvas :(.

Thanks sun_dream

What's the Widcomm OEM?

GPSTools - do you have a link - what does it actually do?

What was the 1% that hasn't worked?

Thanks for sharing - downloading now :)

Is this a full ROM or just a package?

Edit: Size tells me it is a full ROM :) - do you have a package we can download to cook in?

Okay, I have a working MEGA rom, but the memory usage is 70+% :eek:

Anyone able to advise what I need to change?

Also I have the following issues...

CommManager -

can't enable/disable bluetooth
can't enable/disable 3G - I have to click on the 3G slider, then whilst it thinls about it, toggle flightmode, which then turns back on with the correct setting.


Program Launcher -

I want to remove the button description from underneath the icon


So have I missed something??

Thanks

the ram problem is probable because you included the Resource Proxy pack

if you in the rgu delete this


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\P reLoadRes]
"Order"=dword:00000000
"Sleep"=dword:00000000
"Module"="\\Windows\\PreLoadRes.exe"
But keep the rest of the regs as they are stil needed


By doing this you free up upto 20MB of ram
it's the PreLoadRes.exe that is using all the memorie

the newer HTC devices have much more ram then our soon getting old devices so they have lots of stuff pre loaded to make them run faster.

this was making me go insane almost before I figured out what was doing this at first I tought it was Bootloader, because when no bootloader in rom there was no big ram usage... but if Bootloader was not in my roms many apps didn't work. ofcause the ram would go down without bootlauncher because without bootlauncher PreLoadRes wasing loading :D

so by removing that from the rgu you can free 20 or more MB ram

@gullum : thanks for the tweak, I'll test it too (and thanks for the kitchen, so I'll compare our packages to see how bad I worked for the port :D)

@d_train : for 3G in CommManager, try to put all PNG from older version with 3G (since I can't exactly remember what ones are needed do that, but don't replace files when copying) and modify the REG this way :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\3]
@="3G"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\UMTS]
"PrefRAT"=dword:00000001
"PrefDomain"=dword:00000002
"OpMode"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\UMTS\BandSelection]
"Band"=dword:00000000



Seems it works for me

Hi are you refering to the program tab in manila? if so try changing this line in HTCHomeSettings.xml in <LauncherWidget>
from:

<Property name="IDLAUNCHERWG_BTNTEXT_RECT" id="21" value="-4, 57, 67, 26" />To:
<Property name="IDLAUNCHERWG_BTNTEXT_RECT" id="21" value="0, 0, 0,0" />
then you would probable want to change this line to

I havn't tried it but that should remove the text
and you might want to change this line to

<Property name="IDLAUNCHERWG_Y_INTERVAL" id="1" value="24" /> set 24 to a lower value to get the launch icons closer togeter

[d_train]

Thanks gullum will give it a go.

Checked the old manila and it didn't have a IDLAUNCHERWG_BTNTEXT_RECT, so that is probably why it never had the text.

Hi all,

Hi DT and thanks...
I already have this key set but no way to have Bluetooth working from CommManager.

Note that if I remove from my ROM build 23016 these SYS folder: InternetSharing, IPSecVPN and RemoteDesktop, bluetooth from comm manager works fine !!

Any ideas ??

[d_train]

Have you added these back in one at a time to see at what point it breaks?

I have all these in my 23017 and it works fine...maybe redownload 23017 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3521994&postcount=2

and replace these packages in your SYS
