Hey guys, I really need some help here. I've posted this question in the original Kitchen forum , and on the individual ROM forums over at PPCgeeks, but there so crowded now that no ones helped. But I know one of you geniuses can answer this with no problem. So here goes.
I've tried to use PPCgeeks Vogue Kitchen for the past week. I've tried three different, I guess there the ROM selections, from three different people, plus the one that's with the kitchen. I've run the updater every time I start it up, so I know it's not that.
As soon as it loads up, I pick which ROM selection txt file I want to use for my selections. Then I go thru and pick the stuff I want on my ROM. When done, I click on the icon in the toolbar that says "BUILD ROM". It brings up another window that says it's scanning the files and creating a bunch of things. This all works just fine.
When It gets to the end, it pops up a error message and says that it cant find a file. Then it goes back to the Kitchen part. Thats as far as I can get. I have no clue what the file is, or where to get it or make it. The file it says is missing is located in ,
C drive/ Document and Settings/ "my user name"/ Application Data/ hIq INC
It wont let me upload the ROM straight from the Kitchen to the phone either. I guess that the ROM has to be built first huh? But anyway, Someone please help me here. Tell me what I'm missing or doing wrong. I may be leaving out a step, but if so I dont know. PLEASE guys , someone, anyone, help me out here.
I tried installing one theme (transferred files to /windows) and didn't like it then I couldn't get back to my original sprint theme and so I installed another one (cab).
How can I clear all this crap out and just go back to my original factory theme? I shouldn't have messed with this stuff in the first place!
Help would be greatly appreciated!!
hard reset will bring youre phone back to original manilla.
but you will also loose al youre contacts and other apps and tweaks.
That's fine as long as I can get outta this mess!
It won't make me reprogram my phone will it? (i mean program my phone number esn crap?)
how do i do this hard reset?
for Angelko2k8
Look at this link
1) you may tray with tf3d config, there is an item "restore theme" which worked for me. remember to disable tf3d from today first or
2) you may download original black theme and install it. remember to disable tf3d from todat first
hope this help

You can use TF3D config or hard reset.
hard reset: Start > Settings > System > clear storage, enter 1234 and it will hard reset your system.
Thanks, I managed to the hard reset via settings control panel.
Someone who is knowledgeable in adding themes and changing TF3D skins should really make a tutorial and have it stickied. It takes way too much time to read and then downloading countless programs that you come to find out you don't even need. It's really a mess. I'm surprised this forum doesn't already have a sticky for that, we have everything else you could ask for.

Its not that hard dude.
All members in the forum went through the testing and failure method.
I myself reseted my device at least 20 times, in the quest for the perfect jewel.
Im guessing you havent flashed ROMS??
Well if you start flashing start getting used to reseting the device very often.
Greetings.

Nah man, haven't flashed my rom yet...I don't even know how to see what rom I have. The funny thing is that I'm not some noob who doesn't know how to do stuff like this, usually I catch onto this stuff easily but with so much info and downloads on this forum it's easy to get confused.
Once I figure out everything hopefully I'll be able to make a thread for others!
Hello,
I just installed my frist ROM on my Tmobile Wing. I'm pretty new to all of this and haven't done it before. There are a few things that I need to tinker with, but one of them I havne't been able to figure out. I assume that there is something I need to do to get the Data/Edge/Radio working, but I can't seem to figure it out. I have searched as much as I could, but still couldn't locate what needs to be done. When I try to connect to something that needs the edge, it give me a message from the top that says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your settings, tap Settings."
Can anyone let me know what might need to be done?
Thanks for your help!!!
Oh and "ROM_HERALD_WWE_6.1_BUILD_20764.1.4.3" is the rom I installed
Nevermind. After finding it, i'm sure it would have frustrated you to tell another Noob. But after searching enough I found out the info
Run the network wizard if it has one on the rom. If not you can find a network wizard cab on this website somewhere. Its a easy fix.
I am new to this forum, and i have been desperately trying to figure out how to get the htc keyboard on the generic cupcacke build that comes with the mytouch 3G. I know there is a method that involves rooting the phone, but i don't want to take a chance. I have come across another method that seems much easier:
download htc_ime.apk, put it on your sd card, download an app manager or file explorer from android market, use the app to doanload the apk on to your phone, go to local and text in settings and select touch input.
Does this method really work?
I had doubts because everyone seems to be using the more complicated method.
Yes any .apk file will work, does with me and I use Astro
Cheers
R.
Do you have to unzip the apk file before you put it on your sd card?

this method was discussed on the other thread, but the one person who ended up trying it out had problems getting it to work. that is why i made a separate thread to check if the process was valid and if would actually work.

its valid & works fine.. Jsut like the instructions in the other thread say.. I can personally vouch for that as I am using the HTC Compact Keyboard on my myTouch3g
Edit: also the 1 person who hasn't gotten it to work likely is just doing something wrong..
yeah pointless why start a new thread if you could have just gone to the other one and confirmed that it is working....
thanks for all the help. i guess i am kind of new to this stuff. i figured it would be easier to just start a new thread. by the way, why does everybody use the more complicated method(adb)?

Naw I'm positive I did it correctly I did it exactly like the OP in the other thread said he did it... I've rooted g1s and flashed roms so I think I have the bbasic knoledge needed to install an .apk, especially since I did the same thing two days before when I had to install the sherpa .apk

after you have the file on the card run the appmanager program.. when it comes up I had to choose menu & then Something that was obvious.. I dont remember what it was, but it was there.. & then simply install the apk file as listed.. Also make sure you have checked the bock to allow non marketplace apps..

well its installed on my mt3g i had to go to the phone settings then locale & text, then select touch input from there, then go back to a new message long click and select touch input there as well... but it work now and i like on the mt3g just as much as i do on my G1... and sorry im new here and im sure yall are pissed at me already lol
@c-phresh
i think i know what your problem is. when you download and extract the htc_ime.apk, it branches into two files. one is a .so file, and one is a .apk file.
The only file that you should use is the .apk. if you also put the .so file on your sd card, the whole process will go wrong at one point.
when i try to install the keyboard it keeps failing, also. when i try to install it at the top of the screen it says "abc non-word vibrate times" then asks me to confirm that i want to change a system setting, then fails after i try to install. i have a changed the settings to allow 3rd party apps to be installed. any thoughts? non-rooted phone.....

From your information on your post profile I would say your not working with a MyTouch3g since you have a Canadian flag & the rogers logo..
you would be correct. i was hoping that my version would be pretty similar to the mytouch3g, minus the horrible name
@hondaguy
the keyboard that we are all trying to obtain already comes standard on the rogers magic that you have. Look at images on first page.

that is strange. in that case, i can only recomend that you make sure not to install the .so file that came in the keyboard zip
Edit: your right, i did mean the first page of the other thread!
im not sure if anyone has used this program, but i found here, in the G1 section. I tried it out, and it worked great. then im not really sure wat happened, but i had to re install it, and when i tried to open it, it gave me an error saying out of memory. im not sure if its talking about my phone or my laptop. anyone have any solution to this?
