Extended rom - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development

Hi guys,
Maybe it is not the right place for this question, but I got the feeling that only few people are reading other places of the Prophet forum.
So here is my problem and question:
Instead of installing all my apps one by one after a new rom or a hard reset, I am thinking of including the apps into the extended rom folder. My question is "what may be the size of the extended rom folder?"
thx, all answers will be appreciated

Read the Wm6 Update guide. It can't be bigger than the base extrom image provided in the update package.
Edit : Gullum was faster

question
Hi Gullum and HMA4
Thanks for your quick answer. May I ask you another question, since you are maybe the most experienced guys on this forum. When you have typed texts for some time, some of you own words are added somewhere and these words are also suggested while typing. However, when you update your rom or simply hard reset your device, these added words are gone from the word suggestion list. When I restore a backup the list is back. My question is where can I find my personal added words? Maybe you can save them and restore them to use with a new rom.
thx again guys

Cheers

Is there no complete file to download for the rom update?
@ JoseftheBest
You are right, there is one, and I should know it. I am one one these guys telling the others to read the wiki first and don´t do it for myself, sorry for that post here.
greetings
Michael
can't find it... looking for about 2 hours for the complete file... but can't find it
and using the procedure like the link you were posting me before i get everytime the same error:
I get this error after opening the RaphealHardSPL:
To run this application, you first must install one of the following versions of the .NET Framework:
v.2.0.50727
Contact your application publisher for instructions about obtaining the appropriate version of the .NET Framework.
Josef
looking for this?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Raphael_WM6.1_ROMs
yeah exactly i found that one before i was downloading it, and i get a rar file.
I downloaded the file from OS ONLY. Is that correct?
After extracting it, i have three raw files. What I should do with them?
Any Idea? Still searching...

i wanted to make a dump of the dutch rom but is already on the site
so i thiought a dump wassnt nesecary any more
Hi, i got a dutch Iolite and right now i am trying to find out how to swap to an english ROM. But somehow it is quite difficult to find kind of a step-by-step explanation in this board.
I guess before trying any kind of flashing action i should first dump the ROM I have installed, to go back in any case.
So i downloaded those ITSutils but procread just crashes with a 'RAPI.dll was not found" error. Well, i will check for that later in the board, but in general... What should i do to dump the ROM?
I am supposed to plug it to a pc via usb? If so, using which drivers? Do i need to open that windows mobile cd i got with the phone?
Because if i would not need it, i would keep it closed until I decided wether to keep the phone (in english) or to sell it again when it has to stay in dutch.
Thanks for any help, because I really did not find what i was looking for within the wiki or that board so far. thanks
I find this topic very confusung too! :-/
For maybe being of help for other people:
- the RAPI.dll not found error is gone, when Active Sync 4.5 is installed at the host-computer, then there are also no further drivers needed
- smartphone has to be attached via usb in the activesync mode
The thing is this:
Nobody explains that right!!!!!!
Sorry maybe i'm a fool!!!!
I think is more easy wait a original ROM upgrade from HTC......
Eduardo
The real interresting question here must be; how to backup / dump my existing ROM to .nbh?
That way it wouldent be so scary to try the different custom roms here, and allso it would be very easy to share our ROM's.
Dump it to RAW, then use "Visual EviusKitchen" - ExtraButtons - Raw2NBH
Dumping programm: HERE
Kitchen U find in forum too, must use sefu

To All,
Let me be the first one to post something usefull in this thread...
rite now i have flased the New wm 6.5 ROM build 21202 shared by helgee...First of all thanks to Helgee for uploading the ROM
This is more like a final product in WM 6.5 version but as usual got a few bugs in it....let me just summarise a few of them below...
1)There are multiple task manager icons ...almost 4 to 5 icons...
2)When you open contacts and scroll through the contacts its appears everything is overlapped ..ie contacts are overlapped and you cannot read them out...
I have not played with it enough to find anymore bugs in it...
the good thing is that this rom is quite fast for the last 40 mins i have been using...good that it has a better dialer which looks good...it doesnt have the honey comb ...
and in my opinion i have tried all the wm 6.5 ROM released here ...i feel ankit's 6.5 build 21l76 is the best that i have used so far.....no offense to anyone ...its just my point of view..
And ppl please stop reserving threads...start posting issues with WM 6.5 you face....Just a request...
@hari
hey buddy chill out..leave this thread open asking you as a request and hope there will be serious talks only in this thread from now....lets see....
SORRY ALL FOR THE DOUBLE POST
lets close this thread
Hi guys! will it not be better to post issues about specific rom in the thread itself.? Bcoz mixing here talking about all wm6.5 roms will b quite a mess. Like the Russian helgis rom.If he has to find some feedback he will visit this thread. Isnt that a waste of time.Also if I find a feedback or issue or request I will post in his thread.So openning another thread would mean paralysing the original thread.No excitement for rom makers.Also if they have to communicate , will they post here?.I dont think so.
Im surely agree with you.

Hi htc3400, I think that this bug is related to BackUp. I use PimBackup or Outlook using ActiveSync. I have this bug no.
Hi, my fren ,I wont pull ur legs .ok.Anyway keep the good work. But why is that u always flash from ur sd card, how is it actually, I mean is it more easy than flashing with active sync.?Someday u must share how to flash from sd. But I think u always find trouble flashing that way.Am I right?Thanks.have a gud day.
Warning, Keep it on topic.
@fellow Xda peeps.
Keep it on topic or temp bans will be issued
Closing thread as requested. Post rom issues in their own threads
Peace everyone,

Removing Apps From Custom Roms?

Hi All,
This may be an incredibly stupid question...
I have installed both the Gingerbread Rom and Iridium Rom and like both of them. However, there are some apps added that I have no use for.
Can I just take the apk's for these apps out of the update.zip or is that going to cause it to fail the flash?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Jonathan
if you mean themes I asked the same and was told i can delete all apps from custom rom without any problems (or even delete all system/app folder)
I guess apps in custom rom are just skinned, so there's no real need to install them
Please post question in the general section.
Ahh, apologies for posting in the wrong place.
Thanks for the info, I'll take out the ones I don't need.

Cooking Help

I was thinking of teaching myself how to cook WP7 for Leo. Ive looked through the HD2 section and the WP7 section. I got myself the kitchen and some basic instuructions, but i have a few questions.
1) where are the langugage files and how can i add/delete language abilities?
2) I can make the default.hvm file and user.hvm file, but how do i open them to edit things?
3) If i screw up cooking my ROM and test it on my HD2, will it brick the phone?
I really dont want to release something, that doesnt work, so if anyone could help me, that would be great!

Just for starters, have a look at Yuki's Great tut on cooking WP7, which i believe you already have.
now the questions,
1) i dont know much about this, but usually on x86 platform microsoft has ttf fonts for languages which are linked to system language preference using registry database.
2) they are registry hives, use any registry hive editor from google (works for me)
3) Nope, HSPL protects user from bad flashes in bootloader, MAGLDR protects HSPL by doing flash work in userspace. so if you flash a bad image, power goes off during flash using MAGLDR and DWI, only the data on NAND will be corrupt, you can still boot into HSPL bootloader and MAGLDR and next time you flash a good image, that will boot as well. (you will have to format/clean the partitions ofc if using Android)
Although this is a dev section its not for asking questions, do that in the Q&A forum.
The only posts here should be dev releases/projects/reference etc.
What do you think this section would look like if everybody was allowed to just post questions?? Thats the whole reason the Q&A forums were created in first place.
sorry TheATHEiST, my bad. ill remember that from now on.
@Rick_1995. Thanks for that! should get me started!

The .hvm files are actually editable in any text editor, as I found out. Just don't forget to convert them back to .hv files like I did.
