im trying to add manually a program. i tried with mkrom. add the files to the files2 directory, some changes in default.reg

then this in the initobj.txt:

Code:

Directory("\Program Files\CEEJ Virtual Machine\Swing"):-File("SimpleSwing.jar","\windows\files\SimpleSwing.jar")
Directory("\Program Files\CEEJ Virtual Machine\Swing"):-File("ReadMe.txt","\windows\files\ReadMe.txt")
Directory("\Windows\CEEJ"):-File("CEEJ.exe","\windows\files\CEEJ.exe")
Directory("\Windows\CEEJ\Libraries"):-File("swingall.jar","\windows\files\swingall.jar")
Directory("\Windows\CEEJ\Libraries"):-File("font.properties","\\windows\files\font.properties")
Directory("\Windows\CEEJ\Libraries\security"):-File("java.security","\windows\files\java.security")
Directory("\Windows\AppMgr"):-File("Skelmir CEEJ Virtual Machine.DAT","\windows\files\Skelmir CEEJ Virtual Machine.DAT")

But after the boot the map's are there in the windows direcyory, but the files are empty. i just deleted a bunch of files out of the files2 directory because this program is about 4 meg. but then i had serveral errors. the kitchten can remove programs. but can it add also one? because with mkrom i haven't got success.

XDA ROM Kitchen Upgrade

Guys
Terrific kitchen - makes us hungry for more !!! This is simply phenomenal. Thank you xda-developers and jeff summers. Upgraded successfully and no issues so far (about 4 minutes). Used an older version of Programme A and hence took an hour to flash the ROM. Next time I'll use the O2 version which seems so much faster.
PS: You may want to include Converter in the list of options - very useful if you happen to travel around and have to deal with different units in different places...
If only the XDA could mix cocktails, cook dinner and clean up afterwards..
Cheers
Sand

I'll add CEEJ to the kitchen menu as soon as I find some time.

Hi all,

Has somebody worked out how to include wmodem into the MW2003 rom?

This is what I really wait for.

Besides this the kitchen is really really cool.

Thanks to all involved of cause special thanks to Jeff Summers.

regards,

Silver

As you can see in the Showroom Kitchen, we added the option to make installer EXE files. Kitchen operators need 'Programme A' as well as WinRAR and do a little work because we cannot distribute Programme A. The instructions are in the readme file in the How-would-you-like-your-ROM dir in the data tree.

I must say I am very impressed with the skills and knowledge of Jeff and the xda-developers on this forum.

However I have a problem that applies to ALL PPC 2003/ WME2003 ROMs and that is I cannot recieve sms messages! Sending them is fine, and making/recieving phone calls is good also but I cannot recieve the messages!! Surely if there was something wrong with the radio stack (4.21) then the xda wouldnt work at all??

I look forward to replys!! Has anybody else had these experiences??

Regards,
Max

When using ROM Kitchen with WM2003 the system wide clear type is now disabled...Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this bug???

BTW...Thank you XDA Dev and Jeff for everything!!!

Thanks in advance...

Hi,
When choosing Wm2003, can we also add the EVB support file that microsoft left out?

I think those files are really big 1mb+ it would be a better idea to add them into the rom so we don't have to be bothered when adding programs that uses EVB support files like the chat program inside the developers kitchen.

To re-enable cleartype, just go to settings|system|screen. It's right there. No panic.

Now, can you guys include AIM in this release? AIM is actually free from here, because T-Mobile has a deal with AOL to have IM on their devices, including the pocket pc.

Now, even though it's free, I can understand if you can't include it, but then is there a way we can upload a file ourselves and put it in? (I know, complicated

)

xda-developers,

I just saw that u have posted the self extracting option on the webiste.

I created the archive but i have a questions.

name the resulting self-extractor _rom.exe

should i save it as self-extractor _rom.exe file? did i understand correctly?

nd place in the _
directories under the ROM files.

I'm not sure where it goes under? can u guys provide a path?

one more thing:

When i build a rom and try to click on the button that says download now, i get a pop that says "unable to find rom file to download. i looked at the code and looks like script is looking for /download/download.php file, which is not present. i fixed it by changing the reference to a button to an actual link to download the rom. DO u have a fix for this?

thanks

alex

call it "_rom.exe".

.../data/00_Base Rom/3.17.03 ENG O2-Euro/_/_rom.exe

or likewise for the other ROM.

Oops, the download directory got excluded on a file copy here. I put the download.php where it belongs. It's nicer with the script because it turns off any and all caching to make sure you never get a cached copy.

Congratulations and thank you to all the chefs of this delicacy from xda-dev's kitchen

Couple kinks that might need a touch-up:

When using the WM 2003 ROM adding iChat or D9 as options, although the VB Runtime gets in the ROMCode, when you try to run them the system still prompts for the eVB Runtime downloiad. It appears that the eVB runtime download for WM2003 is different than the files the ROM loads for the apps

Also, for WM2003, on a US xda, the Bandswitch app returns error in its config screen and doesn't seem to allow any modifications.

You guys rock, and thank you all

kalex · Jul 29, 2003

Xda-developers. thanks for helping me fix the problems. everything now works perfectly and i get 3 outputs of roms.

Now its time to spicy things up on my end. :twisted:

Jeff Summers · Jul 29, 2003

I broke my kitchen, so any ROMs baked over the last four hours were broken. Now all is well again.

Sorry

Bootloader?

I noticed those lines in the generation log:
this bootloader seems to be V5.22 2003-05-15 17:46:55
80000000 - 80040000 -- bootloader 0 files 1 modules

the bootloader is part of ROM? I still have my old 5.15 (I think

, why is it here?

kalex · Jul 29, 2003

Don't worry about the bootloader. ur not loading it

pdazealot · Jul 29, 2003

Where is WModem?

I know it's not there, but in Jeff's ROMKitchen it says it is moved to a subfolder. Waaaaahhhh!!! OK, I'll just have to wait for an updated ROM, or quit my *****ing and crank up my own unix box. What to do? What to do?
