Hi There,
You can take a sample from the existing Cooked ROM for WM6, usually there is ExtROM folder inside it and the application should be place inside it and also the command to run this application for the first time boot ( the file name is config.txt). you have to put some command inside the config.txt
hope it can help u

I'm interested to see if there is an updated version of HTC Network Wizard? the TMobile t-web settings requires a proxy server now, wondering if someone re-programmed it into the wizard.
Is BT FTP for the smartphone a taboo argument??
I can't seem to find a working cab that shows the FTP settings page (in system settings) and that lets others connect to your phone, yet I saw it on a HTC Vox, so it must exists for the smartphone!!
Can you find it? (no, the ones floating in the forum won't work... already tested them all!)
Also, BT on the startrek (erofich's latest rom) is subject to long slowdowns before operations begin ... i.e. copy a file... stay "connecting" on the PC side for 15 secs.... then transfer a file in half a second... that's not normal!
thanks for the help
I would recommend you build your own ROM and transfer the stuff you want from other ROMs, such as the Diamond, Shadow.
I have done this my self and find I am much better off.
No need to wait for someone to build what you want.

Posting a CAB isn't that difficult, if it exists... and it must exist... any pointers are also appreciate (i.e. the files you want are in the rom "A" for the phone "B", go and extract them)...
Building my own ROM, i think it's a task too difficult for me .....

The files you want are in the Diamond.
I haven’t used them myself so I don’t know if they work.

Good news, I made the bluetooth FTP server work!
But still I can't make the client work correctly! Rename, delete are ok... but when I try to copy files to or from the remote device, nothing happens! This problem doesn't exist on the PPC version...
Keep fighting the good fight thenext1. Im on the edge of my seat in anticipation of a working bt FTP client that will work on my 3125. I have been wanting to use my old Strtrek as a bluetooth ftp server for my work computer and a blu million other devices I have with ftp functionality. No luck to date however. If you need someone to test your rom let me know because unfortunately without this functionality a perfectly good device will be collecting dust. I have read in some other forums that the difficulty with this upgrade stems from the fact that the Bluetooth stack on the Qtek does not allow for this functionality. I have also seen posts related to replacing the existing bt stack with one that will work(ie easy to brick phone). Thanks for the work that you have done to date.

I didn't make a rom for testing that, any WM5.0 or WM6.x rom will do. No Qtek stack is holding anyone from implementing that function, in fact the stack is Microsoft's extensible one.
The FTP server works already as I said.. the FTP client doesn't work and I don't know why, and in the meanwhile I've switched to a motorola Q9h which has the broadcom stack.

Hey can anybody confirm the status of windows live on this ROM? Or is it not there?
That will be the best thing coz then i hope one of the cabs from this forum will work on it or atleast the official cab without the messenger will run atleast.
That ways we can have hotmail access and can use IM+ or Mundu IM for MSN messenger.
Anyways, heres the alternative link on 4 shared:
[Mirror Deleted as the ROM was russian and no longer needed]
UPDATE: A quick inspection of the dump of this ROM reveals that Windows Live is not there Somebody please try this ROM and install and test Windows Live on it. I have just installed my current ROM yesterday so dont want to mess up my phone right now for testing purpose :|
Also Some of the files are in Russian!! :| why so?
@Ankit360: buddy i guess you would like to try it out, you haven't used any rom other than fusion i think just asking, no offence.

NO Thanks for a quick reply
Can we convert this rom to english ?????
Are yaar first we need the english version of kitchen then only we can covert or create anything. No body has shared it yet with us, dont know why. Why everybody wants the kitchen to be secret :|
Since this ROM isn't useful as it is, i am deleting the mirror :|
PS: If anybody wants the Zuma game included in this ROM or the HTC Diamond Ringtones, i have extracted those, tell me and i'll upload.
Closed as per OP Request.

Hi there.
I'm trying to install the SGREGORY HTCHome plugin, but get an error installing it, looks like my S740 needs to be "application unlocked" ??
Any tips on how to get that fixed ?

Not really
Found the solution for the application unlock here : http://www.mobilejaw.com/articles/2009/01/removing-the-application-lock-on-htc-s740-smartphone/
But that doesn't solve the problem when installing the Gregory_HTCHomeN.cab installation. Still getting an installation error (translated from dutch: Installation unsuccesfull, program can't be installed or a setting can't be processed because of not the correct systemauthorisation is available)

I think both do the same thing - I couldn't remember the registry settings when I needed to do it, so went the easy way.
Does the homescreen need any separate plugins - smartmonitor for example?
The Greogry_HTCHomeN.cab is a standalone plugin, is doesn't need anythinh else.
It seems to be running on the "vox" an those type of Smartphones with WM6.0 and WM6.1 Standard Editions.
Can't find a specific reason why it will not run on my (dutch) htc-s740.
can you post the cab file on here - I'll take a look.

Here it is...
Hope there is al solution..
Hi. I think its because of the totally new concept of the homescreen on the WM 6.1 standard edition devices. Its different to the WM 6 edition. In my opinion, any today plugin from a WM 6 device will not run on a WM 6.1 device.
P.S. why dont you like the original homescreen HTC plugin delivered with the Rose. I think, its great and has everything from your Gregory plugin. If you like to configure the plugin on the rose, use the homescreen configurator CHome http://smartphonenutsandbolts.wordpress.com/2008/05/17/chome-configurator-for-wm-61/ Works very well on my Rose.
The gregory_htchome doesn't seem to run on my dutch S740.
Too bad, but i just doesn't work. Don't know why.
Switch back to the Standard HTC Home pugin, and play a little more with the home screen configurator.
Thanks..
it works ! it is just a little tricky . i have refresh my notebook and must mod the plugin again, ok!
tomorrow i´ll upload it for you in this thread
Where is the up ?
sorry, i have forgotten !
install the cab and restart , then sda-app-unlock and finally file-explorer over active-sync and putt the contend of the windows/htc in to the main windows folder ... to overwrite the original one. finish
I also have a problem installing the normal HTC Home plugin on my Dutch S740 phone. I'm a newbie so please be gentle.
It gives an error when I want to install a random version of the HTC Home Plugin. Something that the installation file isn't suitable for my device. Where can I download the correct version of the HTC Home Plugin for my dutch version?
do you work with the htc-home-plugin or the gregory-home-plugin ?
Aaah. we meet gain
Well I'm now working with the Gregory version you supplied and it seems to work... I'm getting better at this .
Now I have to see how to tweak this plugin. Well I will continue my search...
have fun ! there is something to mod , on this plugin!

Thanks for the plugin, it installs fine now.
Only thing not working is the WeatherApp ?
I saw a \windows\htc folder with 2 different files, should those be copied to the \windows folder ? The \htc Files are older than the original ones.
yes yes i know that ! they are much older, but there is no way out , these are very diverent versions of the weather-app , the original for the chome and the gregory for home plugin. you have to backup the original (if you want) and overwrite the files to get an working weather on gregorys-htc-home
new cab file ?? please

Hello xda,
This is my first public ROM (ONLY FOR NEW GENE), which I have been using for last few days without any issues. This ROM has been possible for two great persons of the Gene forum Sumit Bharadwaj aka krazy_about_technology and ramersonw. They have practically lead me by hand in cooking the ROM.
Thank you ramersonw for the GREAT Tutorial.[COLOR]
Thank you Sumit, for publishing your ROMs without protection , so that less mortals like us can use your ROMs as base to cook our own ROMs. As a matter of fact this ROM is based on Sumit’s latest Pro User 2 r 1 ROM. So if you like this ROM, the entire credit goes to Sumit. However if there is some problem, then sorry – I must have deleted something I shouldn’t have. Also please keep the Carrier splash screen, its my way to thank these two wonderful persons. I have deleted a lot of applications which I believe most people do not use, the list of packages that are not there:
1. Cyberon Voice Commander.
2. Voice Recorder.
3. Arcsoft MMS (MMS is pretty expensive, so I am not sure how many pple use it)
4. Windows TaskManager (WK Task is there)
5. Opal Phone Canvas.
6. Connection Setup.
7. Adobe Reader
8. Flash Player
Additional Applications in the ROM:
1. TCPM Player 0.72RC1
2. Dr. Gonzo’s Clean Fonts Cab (Modified), Thank a million Dr. G for getting me hooked to xda.
3. PointUI 2.0
This is my first ROM, so it may have some bugs which I have missed out. So please report the same. I will try to sort them out in the next release.
I am not posting screen shots as they are same as Sumit’s Pro User’s ROM.
Thanks again ramersonw and Sumit, you are the people with the greatest heart in this community (atleast to me ).
Vital Statistics:
Free Storage: 57.5 MB approx
Available RAM: >= 22 MB
If you have the guts to flash your device , please give feedback.
Thanks
Download instructions:
visit http://www.4shared.com/dir/13501030/be68af87/PointUI2.html
and download all the four files. Copy them in a folder and use Winrar to open the first file and extract it.
Great going Shaunak, Kudos to you! I may not download and use it right now, but i am curious about feedback and i'll try to support the rom by answering people's questions here, if thats ok with you BTW, can you send me the clear fonts cab and the carrier splash you are using, i want to see these but i am on mobile internet connection right now so i cannot download big stuff, comfortably. Will be returning to Delhi by 16th morning so would be glad if i get these before that.

@Krazy : Please port the lite rom for OLD GENE. Also PointUI may be stripped from the current ROM ( I don't think it is really needed in stripped down version).

BTW Lite ROM doesn't mean a Gene just for making calls . Otherwise I wouldn't have included TCPMP either .
To me Lite means stuffs that are not usually required.
me downloading the ROM....
Thanks a ton to all the chefs who r cooking ROM for general people
@addictedtoxda Congratulations for ur first ROM...hope u will make more gud ROM...eager to check it out
@addicted2xda: Yes, please port it with the help of Krazy for OLD Gene. BTW you are absolutely right in stating the stripped down/lite version is just not a dumb mobileOS. I agree you have stripped the softwares/utilities which we do not usually require and retained the important and useful softwares. Just a suggestion PointUI may also be made optional.

U can Add Acrobat,
song stop when Suspend ( think U can add reg edit with this rom by default)
why not add ur Black theme?
still I not find any bug....
anyway connection sating is necessary soft for all. Please add it,
I appreciate ur ROM building.

Although which apps are useful and which are useless is a subjective thing and depends from person to person, My personal view is that a lite ROM should contain utilities that doesn't cripples the original funtionality of ROM.
The highly unused parts should be removed, the parts that can be updated should either be updated or if they are frequently updated one, should be provided as recommended downloads and those software that can be easily installed on the storage card should be avoided to be included on ROM (but make sure they are not the one which just show that they are installing on mem card but have hardcoded paths.). Today plugins and dialer are the most important candidates to be included in ROM as they have to be installed on phone mem anyway. .NET framework and others should also be included. Flash plugin is controvertial, it works with some apps, but doesn't works with others.
Plus, initflashfiles.txt should also be checked for unnecessary file copy installations like i was having problem with Audio Manager in previous ROMS.
So as far as this ROM is concerned, i think shaunak should not have included TCPMP and PointUI2 is something that is currently under heavy development so it is up to him to include it or not, as including it provides improved speed of point ui, but it hampers updating of it.

Yeah, you are absolutely right. But we are so fond of flashing our devices (well most of us, as you can see from frequently changing signatures ), I think by the time TCPMP will be updated, all us would have already migrated to a new ROM .
@amolji & nipu_cse thanks for you encouraging words. Actually my ROM may appear faster than Sumit's is because a lot of stuff has been removed from his ROM. But then its a personal opinion. Like I have seen some pple who believe WM 6.5 with honeycomb menu has a faster response than Pro User 2 r1 . I couldn't handle its slowness for 1 hour even and immediately reflashed. Eye candy is good, but not that good . I will definitely keep your suggestions in mind. BTW I tried to integrate the black theme (its not mine, its of P1Tater - one of the Mods, so I wouldn't even dream to call it mine), but did not work .
@krazy: I hope you don't have any issues with the welcomehead file, its just my way of showing gratitude to you two guys
No man, i was a bit overwhelmed in the way you have written my name everywhere, highlighted Thanks. The file is ok and your doing a great job. Very nice
