Default Iolite ROM porting

Just had a few questions to the cooks out there maybe can help me solve why porting the Iolite rom to the tilt is becoming an epic failure for me. I have tried xip porting three different ways with all the same results. First two i get a double beep than tap screen, but i can not tap the screen to get it to go on. Third way got single beep than tap screen and once again no response from the screen. I copied the sys over and g'relocd it. I have tried this with the 3.34 base. Do i need anything else? Is it necesarry to have the manila 2d included? Also on another note I tried with the AT&T rom as a base which works fine except the folders are empty and I can not make any data connections.

I copied the SYS from the Iolite rom and ran g'reloc to the proper values. Unless im doing something wrong there. I have done the same when porting the blackstone roms minus the dpi192 folders. For this I just copied it all. Must i keep the dpi96 folders from the original rom for it to work. If so I feel noobish lol. on another note I also did try just copying the gwes.exe and the other per your sys porting guide (Thanks Mbarvian) and had the same results. Unless my XIP porting is not happening correctly.

Well, I can confirm this issue. See my post here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478647
I thought it was a SYS issue as well. However, I re-ported the SYS, didn't change anything in it. Just g'relocd, and went on. There is just one difference, I only had the touch screen not respond once. Every other time, no problems. Just still receiving that stupid double beep before the tap screen message. I can up a zip of my kitchen for anyone that wants to take a look at it. :/

Hey KMFM$

Yeah the double beep thing is weird. The only time I did not get the double beep was when I used the XipportEx thats posted on the forums, but every single time im getting no response from the touchscreen Really want to get a rom going. I want to develope a nice rom for the community to use, but I have much learning to do before I release something out. Currently I want to do release something with both a HTC and an AT&T base rom.

Yeah, that double beep is just driving me nuts. Off hand, do you know if you're using the XIP porting utility from ervius' (from the XIP Porting Tutorial in Dev&Hacking) or the similar one posted by lennysh? Also, are you using the SYS supplied in anryl's kitchen thread?
Hopefully, we can find an answer for this soon. I would like to release this ROM, but this is just one bug that I cannot deal with.

The three i have used are lenny's which produces the double beep
The manual from post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438676 also has the double beep.
Finally the one from ervius does not do the double beeping.
I extracted the iolite rom using htrcie than the packagebuilder. It has worked for me many times.
Still can't figure out why with the HTC rom no touchscreen, but the AT&T rom base works, but is seriously crippled.

Interesting. I'm using the XIPPorterEX from Ervius' and I'm receiving the double beep. I'm currently using the XIP and SYS supplied from anryl's kitchen thread. I'm having the hardest time finding the original files for porting. I don't know if I'm just searching the wrong thing or what. Oh well.

I downloaded it from this post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476828

Unless I extracted the XIP incorrectly or the rom itself. Not sure. Could go with the AT&T base and have no data connection and empty folders

alright,

I just manually ported the XIP and the SYS from the same ROM that you mentioned, and posted them here:

good luck cooking
