I was successfuly able to build a ROM using the XIP ans SYS you provided. Thank you so much. One question, is there somewhere I can download all the missing wav sounds? IE loudest.wav, infbeg.wav, ect? I did search the forum and google but could not find. Thanks!

Very nice guide! Definately going to check it out when it's done.

May I suggest adding a post completely dedicated to tips & tricks from experienced cooks, like Itje's post. Can really help the novices out!

Vote for sticky!

this is what i was looking for some time ago, i've tried diferent stuff, but this is all together i want to cook roms in spanish latam, but that stuff gets very late, but i can try with this, and when the right roms get out i can start cooking in spanish when the stuff arrives maybe 2010 =D hehehe. thanx and keep the good work for all Xperinced cookers. i just made me a r2 cleaned latam rom, its plain and bored XD, but it works good,i included some R3 stuff, like the camera and panel manager, but i fell like i'm missing something.

I cooked my own latinamerian ROM 3 months ago, but as you said before, translations always come later ... :(

It was called "LATIN SEX1" :D :D (really) :p but I never released since the first WM6.5 ROMs started to leak @ PPCgeeks, o I jumped to english cookin'

You bet I will do someting when I put my hands on a spanish version

;)

I just want to say a huge THANKS for your excelent job and, the big effort, the possitive atitude and the sharing spirit.
I wish we had more of you!

I have tested both your released ROMs and they rock.
I really hope you share your Frankestain kitchen with us. If you do so, I will mess a bit with it, using my non-existing cooking/developing skill, in order to try removing panel-namager and panels.

WinRAR will only "show" the guts of the CAB

You need a CAB editor (wince CAB manager 30 day free trial is a good one)
to add - remove files, modifiy / manage the CAB

Feel free to use it as a base for your own custom CABs, but If you add YOUR content, remove my name from there

I think you better give up cooking if you don't dare to spend a little time to search for answer, since you will encounter a lot more questions and no one will hold your hands and tell you how to do one by one. Your question are simply the first few hit if you google "remove customer feedback xda"

change

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]
"Script"="av0pw3r"
"Sound"="\\Windows\\Rings\\Sony Ericsson.mp3"
"Category"="Ring"

to

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]
"Script"="av1pw3r"
"Sound"="\\Windows\\Rings\\Sony Ericsson.mp3"
"Category"="Ring"

otherwise the vibration will not stop. the 0 (zero) means vibration for infinite.
