***********additional information 2006-May-15**********
regarding to initflashfiiles.dat and initboji.dat
i tired to write initflashfiles.dat in Japanese chalachtor, but not in CODE,
seems to work.
*write initflashfiles.dat in Japanese to specify Japanese Localized shell folders and Japanese re-named Short cuts. then add into rom.
also deleate both of 2 old dat files from rom.
then flash it back to my Uni, the localized shell folders were created!
this can save a lot of time to create the Localized ROM :shock:
But,,, still testing that ROM can work correctry.......or not.
<some appurication buttons can not assained if without initboji.dat>

@ to edit the dll or exe from AKU2 rom, they have some difference.
Strings can be edited only with Platform Builder now.

Can I have your instructions?
Hi Asukal(sama):
I'm trying to localize my Universal to my local language.
I'm stuck now before boot set-up process after hard reset.
So, I would like to ask you several questions.
Could you show me your instructions / suggestions?
1) Certification Store (way 2-1)
You said I have to take out CertificationStore from registry file.
I could not find any key of "CertificationStore", so I compared my registry before and after SDK_Cert installation.
I found there are some differences in registry file, which are:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\SystemCertificates\SPC\Certificates\XXXXX] –- 3 keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\SystemCertificates\Privileged Execution Trust Authorities\Certificates\XXXXX] – 3 keys
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\SystemCertificates\Unprivileged Execution Trust Authorities\Certificates\XXXXX] – 2 keys
I removed "\" that locates on each line of hex data and write these keys on default.hv file.
However, the start-up process just after hard reset didn't start...
I also found some other differences on registry files, which seems certification file update time.
Do I have to put update time keys on default.hv file?
Or am I still missing something?
2) MUI (way 2-2)
I could sign *.mui files with SDK_Cert.
You said PE header must be corrected if I cannot sign *.mui.
In other words, you mean I don't have to correct PE headers because I can sign my *.mui?
As far as I checked my *.mui files, it seems OK.
3) iniboj.dat (way 3)
I could dump iniboj.dat and initflashfiles.dat and translated them to my language.
Of course I saved in Unicode (UTF-16) and removed the first 2 byte "ff fe".
When I run "delfile.exe", I noticed "delfile.exe" showed the error message that "delfile.exe" could not find iniboj.dat.
But I could add iniboj.dat with "addfile.exe".
Is this a normal message from "delfile.exe"? FYI, my base ROM is Qtek's AKU2; 1.30.77.
4) *.hv files (way 4)
I think the following is the keys that I must change.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"StartUp"="\\Windows\\StartUp"
"Recent"="\\Windows\\Recent"
"Programs"="\\Windows\\Programs"
"Favorites"="\\Windows\\Favorites"
"Desktop"="\\Windows\\Desktop"
Even I changed these keys, I cannot start my start-up process...
Are these keys enough to start start-up process?
I appreciate any suggestions / supports / instructions!!
Thank you.
hi! Camrade!
Re Qeuestions
1;certificate sotre. 3 entries are correct.
@But i am not sure what you removed???
i did not remove any thing and copy it to HV.
@yes update time must be in HV also.
like follows.
without this. no work as sertificate authentification.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\SystemCertificates\Privileged Execution Trust Authorities]
"UpdateTime"=hex:\
00,e0,46,50,1c,96,c5,01
2;if your mui can be signed, they should be workable.
but i am afraid your mui of core-dll Strings Table were broken.
PLS reffer this thread about that!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=49423&highlight=
if you are not sure, pls send me one of them to check it.
3:re-iniboj.dat, as you told me the eror message of delfile.exe will notice you, because i doesnt exisit in rom files. it was in XIP area.
But dont mind that. procceed it!
4;Shell folders; that is enough in hv, to just specify the loaction of Shell folder.<this also discribed in shellres.dll.
But no start up menu if there were localized Shell folders by failed initialized 2 dat files.
@the os can boot even the shellres.dll.xxxx.mui is not worked,
just missing Programs in StarMenu.
Now i am afraid your shellres____mui is read by OS, but it was incorrect.
@to change the Dr.Johnson screen to Japanes one, replace "stylus2.192.gif" and "stylus1.192.gif" with ones from JP os.
But the fisrt sentence before Stylus work for Dr.Johnson is from Shellres.mui, so your are failed in to read shellres_mui if it was still english.
Good luck!
Almost completed
Thank you, Asukal!
With your responses and instructions, I can finally boot my Universal with my language from boot screen!
I’ll make init*.dat file and try to make more localized ROM.
It seems a little difficult (complicated) to make initflashfiles.dat file translating to Unicode character code. But I’ll try!
Again, Thank you very much!!
shugoh
pls try to write iniflshfile.dat in Katakana, instead of Code,
i did try this some part of them just now.
Seems to be worked. But not sure .........didnt test all of in this dat,
just a part of it.
if the Katakana written dat was workable, it will be so easy to create
the Shell folders in Japanese................ :lol:
Hi Asukal,
I also want to join but I don't have the hex editor....the process is so complicated and the "key" is we have you on this website that do cook the ROM for us. Thanks a lot again.
If you have invented some easy installation files that want me to try, please let me know. I tried to edit the latest O2 ROM but unsuccessful....
Cheers,

Hi, Asukal:
This my be very stupid question...
I could translate html portion of shellres.dll with your instruction.
However, I still cannot do of tapres.sll and tshres.dll.......
Maybe this is because the type of resouce is different from shellres's.
So I tried to move html of tapres and tshres to another resources using PB because the other tools I have doesn't work...
When I wanted to save modified resource on PB, PB said I could not save the new resource because PB could not load resources from executable file...
I know this question is the basic one if I want to use PB.
But if you can show (a) hint(s) to me, I would appreciate your support very much.
Thank you!
shugoh
i guess PB can only save the files as "*****.exe" or "******.dll",
but not as a "******.dll.xxxxx.mui"
so you must save it as "anyname_you_want.dll" with out xxxx.mui to other folder.
then go to next step, because files edited with PB can not to be signed.
To enable to be signed, go following steps.
1;Open "any dll" or exe which havs correct PE header with Restorator.
2;Dlelete all of resources from this dll or exe.<make empty dll>
3:On another window of Resotrator ,
Open "anyname_you_want.dll" edited and save by PB
4rag and drop all resources exept "255" resource from
"anyname_you_want.dll" to "empty.dll"
5;save this empty.dll filled with resources of "anyname_you_want.dll",
as the name of your tagert xxxx.mui
6:Close all windows of resotrator.
7;try to sign on that mui, you may able to sign on that!
Good luck
Thank you for your instruction about PB and html.
however, I still cannot save modified file even though I put file name with *.exe or *.dll.
As my test, I opened x86 file and modified its file and I can save the modified. But still cannot tapres and tshres.......
I also tried some WM5 files, but not succeeded in saving it...orz
I installed all PB functions but for MIPS or SH4, which should not necessary for WM5.
The attaced is the error massage appreared when I wanted to save modifed WM file. (I installed Japanese PB, so error message is in Japanese)
"ta.dll" is only a temporary name for modified tapres.
I appresitate your any comments.
Thank you.
shugoh
I did it!!
Asukal:
I finally can make localized tapres and tsh with your recommended tools!!
Please see my blog at your convenience!
I'll try to localize folders with init*.dat files!!
Thank you very much!!
(If I have difficulties on making init*.dat files, I may ask you suggestions after I make every effort I can make,)
Thanks again
shugoh
Hi, Asukal
I can localize init*.dat file according to your post on May-15.
As you said, it seems OK that we can describe folder names on both *.dat file, not Unicode Code #.
So far I have no trouble with these *.dat files.
Thank you.
shugoh
Glad to here that!
You have done! you r a MAN!
Keep on going Dark Side!
Hello, Asukal
I'm back...
I have had a strange problem. As a matter of fact, I haven't solved this problem even though I could make Universal ROM in my language.
When I make my Universal hard & soft reset, I always see 2 white bold lines above and below "Windows Mobile" on 2nd splash screen.
I found these lines don't appear when I change mui regional setting. I mean no white lines on 2nd splash when I change:
1) shellres.dll.0411.mui to shellres.dll.0409.mui
2) shellresapps.dll.0411.mui to shellresapps.dll.0409.mui
(I'm trying to change English ROM to Japanese.)
0411 and 0409 have exactly same contents; I just change their name and place them on "windows" folder.
3) Change mui setting both of the following from 411 to 409.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\MUI]
"SysLang"=dword:00000411
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\MUI]
"CurLang"=dword:411
With these changes, I can boot my Universal without white lines and Uni seems working well. (Of course, all letters except for the ones in these 2 mui are in English. But I suppose I can see Japanese if I change all 0411.mui to 0409.mui. (Haven't tested)
I also noticed I didn't change the region code in init*.dat. (i.e. LOC_0409_DIRWINDOWSHELP, not LOC_0411_DIRWINDOWSHELP)
So I changed init*.dat files and made new ROM with 0411.mui (incl. shellres & shellresapps).
However, there were still 2 white bold lines on 2nd splash...
I haven't added:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ColdInit]
"Locale"=dword:00000411
"ColdInit2Done"=dword:00000001
"ColdInit1Done"=dword:00000001
Because my Uni has always stuck before the initial setup (screen alignment and Dr. Johnson etc.).
This time, I added these keys per your instruction, but I'm stuck again...
Do I have to add [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ColdInit] ?
This would not directly relate to my experience, but I think I can find where I made mistakes.
I appreciate your response.
Thank you.
on my rom, i changed
LOC_0409_DIRWINDOWSHELP, to LOC_0411_DIRWINDOWSHELP
also i added folows
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ColdInit]
but i dont think those are not reason of your problem,
did you tried to edit new one from versin nbf??
i guees the ROM was crashed,,, i never happend,
you think some reason of registry,,,
how about htis,,,
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Stylus\192DPI]
"FontArray"="500,600,900,1000,1200"
"CurFont"=dword:384
this is the for Screen resolution.
But in my case,,without this,, not happend problems like you,,,,
strange,,,,
Hi, Asukal:
I finally find the root cause of 2 bold lines on welcomehead screen!
the mui file taking charge of screen alignment on start-up set-up process causes this problem. I made the new one with PB and solved this problem!!
(I made the previous one with another tool...)
I'm very glad to inform you this and appreciate your supports very much!!!
P.S. However, I'm still stuck with Coldinit... But this is not an issue.
Maybe you guys can help me also figure out why this won't build.
I don't understand why RGUCOMP always throws a RANDOM fit on RGU files. It's like, sometimes just copying the same line to another line, and it works...
Anyhoo, no matter what I try. These aren't building. Maybe it's cause it's late and I'm tired...
Nevermind. I used CERegEditor to just save the file as a hv file.
Intro
Lately I've seen a lot of posts by people who are trying to replace WM internal or driver DLLs, either for hacking/testing or to release. Aside from the possibility they are just doing something that won't work in the first place, I've seen failure a lot of times because files aren't properly signed, or if they are, the certificate in question not being in the right certificate stores for it to have any effect. On some ROMs it will still work due to patched NK.EXE, on others it won't, its just not very reliable.
So, I present you with the correct way of doing this by means of a small tool that will do this for you: DriverWiz. It will take care of most of the stuff, and leave you room for additions. You will however still need some basic knowledge of the command line, if you don't have that, you have no business doing anything like this anyways.
Background
I use this technique myself all the time. When just hacking away, replacing system DLLs to trace calls, etc. It's also the same method used for the HTC-CA drivers and the ICS installer. This method works on most stock ROMs as well, though not on all of them (in rare cases some security policies are set that will prevent CAB installation)
Usage
It's fairly simple to use. Just extract the attached zip file somewhere, open the command promt, and change directory to where the zip was extracted. That's the installation part.
Now when you actually want to build a CAB file from a DLL, you use the DriverWiz.bat file.
DriverWiz v1.0 by Chainfire
Usage:
DriverWiz.bat "Description" "CAB-name" "DLL-name-1" ["DLL-name-2" ...]
Examples:
DriverWiz.bat "New DDI" "ddi.cab" "ddi.dll"
DriverWiz.bat "Two DDIs" "ddi.cab" "ddi.dll" "ddiaux.dll"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
DriverWiz will take care of signing the DLLs, inserting the certificate, etc, and you will end up with a proper CAB file for this kind of thing. Just copy it to your device and run it to install.
#1. You need to put the DLL files in the same folder as DriverWiz. Do NOT include paths in your DLL names
#2. Include the quotes in the command like in the examples!
#3. The first time you install a CAB made by DriverWiz, your phone may still give you a certificate warning. This is normal, don't worry about it.
Caveats
While this method has never failed me yet, it is possible that some files cannot be replaced this way. Just a disclaimer
Modifying
DriverWiz bases the inf file it will create to build a CAB from on DriverWiz.tpl. If you need to add registry entries to your CAB file, modify DriverWiz.tpl before you run the batch file. You can make other modifications too, add files, etc. Just take care that you don't break it
You can use your own certificates as well, instead of the supplied "Dummy" certificate that comes with DriverWiz. The files you will want to modify/replace are DriverWiz.pfx (used for signing) and DriverWiz.xml (used for injecting the certificate). I'll see about finding a reference for how to do that online and posting the URL here (someday). Creating a new certificate from scratch can be a frustrating effort - make sure you got openssl handy

Well if you replace the wrong files you're still going to need to hard-reset to boot. I advise KITL before you do

What exactly happened? Attach the files and such
It made the cab and all, but when I went to install it, the unsigned error message popped up just like when I tried it with WinCE cab manager.
That is perfectly normal behavior. The first time you install a CAB with this certificate it will not know the certificate. However, once you install it, the certificate will be injected in the right place, and the files signed with the certificate (the driver files in the CAB) will be allowed to be run.
It won't happen the second time you try it
So if I try to install it again, it'll work fine? is there aa soft reset required in between? I can replace these drivers manually by renaming the old ones and copying them over, the whole reason I want a cab in the first place is to facilitate the UC process when I flash a different rom

Actually it should just work the first time. Just click OK when the certificate error appears.
Nice nice nice work!
error message
I got error messages when creating a cab from a rilphone.dll. Does it mean anything, or are these errors okay? I guess I'm specifically wondering about the SignTool error. If its okay, then my cab should be good.
EDIT: I think I found the problem. I didn't have UAC disabled in Windows 7. I tried it again, after disabling it, and it works fine now. Thanks for the easy to use tool!
syntax for registry entries?
I was experimenting with creating a cab for the Rogers folks who need a specific rilphone for their Caller ID to work. There are some registry entries associated with this feature, so I was wondering what the correct syntax is for putting the registry entries into the .tpl file. I've tried a few different ways, and I've either a gotten a 'Registry section is empty' message, or a 'Registry has an unsupported registry root key' error. I'm sure its something really simple I'm missing, so any help you can offer is appreciated.
It just seems that since we now have this easy method to sign these dlls, so that they can be used in any ROM, that the Rogers people shouldn't have to jump through so many hoops to get it to work.
EDIT: Nevermind. I'm an idiot that didn't do a little bit of research. All is well now.
Excellent stuff, Microsoft may rant about this way of distributing signtool and cabwiz though.

Here's an intro to cert stores for WM:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa458010.aspx
pfx generation is a 2-liner with openssl:
# Generate a CA certificate
openssl req -new -nodes -x509 -days 9999 -newkey rsa:1024 -md5 -keyout cert.key -out cert.cer -subj "/CN=DriverWiz"
# Convert to pkcs12/PFX format
openssl pkcs12 -export -in cert.cer -out cert.pfx -inkey cert.key
got error messages under vista sp2, any ideas?
I also get an error saying that the latest version of CAPICOM.dll is missing. The ones I can find for download from the internet are version 2.0.0, and the tool requires 2.1.0.1 or later.
Does anyone have the needed version of the dll?
EDIT: Found it, 2.1.0.2 version of the dll is in the attachment.
Time Saver !
Many thanks; DriverWiz /w the CAPICOM.DLL saved me about an hour of troubleshooting.
Cheers,
Thanks for the capicom.dll Even after disabling UAC in W7Rc1 it wouldn't go, so great to have it posted to.
Chainfire, which format should the Reg's be added?
I tried the default .reg formating just under:
[Registry]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Profiles]
@=""
"ActiveProfile"="Normal"
?
Scrap that i found the .inf format
[AddRegistry]
HKCU,"New Key","",0x00010001,1
Many thanks for this, i'll try to Point Driver replacing Sinners from now on to here.
Well INF files are a regular female dog.
If you rather use WinCE CAB Manager, the trick is easily done as well. I do not have it handy right here (I'm not at dev box), but it goes like this.
Put the DLL's and EXE's that need to go in the CAB into the same folder as DriverWiz
Execute the following command from the command prompt in the DriverWiz folder: signtool sign /f DriverWiz.pfx *.exe *.dll
Open your WCM/CAB with CM
Somewhere is an option for "Pre XML" (main screen IIRC).. click to add/edit, and load the DriverWiz.xml file
Save
signtool sign /f DriverWiz.pfx *.cab
Et voila. I should really make an update to DriverWiz to include CAPICOM and write a proper guide on how to do all this manually (including making your own certificates and such). It's easy if you know how
If you could insert another empty post for me at the top, that'd be great.
Device flashes - Device boots - Device runs the Welcome.exe, but then no Customisation.
Iv recently added some EXT packages into my rom. i made them myself from .cab's with cab2ext. ive tested the .cab's before adding to my rom, they do work. but some programs that did work before adding the new EXT's now dont because of no customisation eg, Task Manager - the one on the today screen and also Windows Live. (iv only noticed these two at the moment but there will be more, to be honest i cant be arsed looking for programs that work or dont work when its quite obvious its because of no Customisation, if i fix that, they will work again.. simples )
Anyway...
I opened the new EXT packages ive added and checked all the files.. eg, .dat .reg and all "FILES" files, i even checked the .lnk's and all seems ok. i then checked them again.. yet everything still looks ok, but something is seriously f*cked!
Also another problem, a wierd one..
When i Soft-Reset/Restart the device, it boots up with the Welcome.exe again? (the Welcome.exe is meant to only run the once and then dissable )
Help? iv almost got my rom the way i want it - ive been working on this rom for 2months and i dont want to start building the rom from scratch...
..again! pmsl
Does anyone have any idea what is wrong, if this has happened to you, how did you fix it?
Thanks!
Rn
Check your runcc.lua, then the conf*.txt files you include in your rom, then all the commands you execute inside them.
One of these commands go wrong in your first boot and so you are stuck on customization.
If you use xda_uc or another user customization method, check those scripts as well.
It may happen, for example, if you try to install a cab and for some reason it fails.
If in your recent packages you overwrite one of your conf*.txt file, this could be the cause.
Ciao
...
cheers dude, thanks for your time and help, i think i understand what you meen..
[1)config*.txt <-- all config files are ok.]
[2)runcc <-- googled and i dont use]
[3)xda_uc <-- googled and i dont use]

i litteraly started again from scratch (a nice clean slate) ill just start my rom again like i did then which will solve my problem.lol ive got all my programs and setting backed up (*in a messy folder of messy folders )
my new kitchen will basicly be up and running again by the end of the day, its my birthday on wednesday so i may as well set it as the rom date.lol

This happened to me at least 20 times, or more
Let's check together what happen at first boot, if I'm wrong anybody else will correct me.
1) files are moved from \windows to other directory according to your app.dat / initflashfiles.dat.
2) .provxml files are parsed to change config values or filesystem
3) welcome is executed, but this command don't stop startup so:
3a) autorun.exe or runcc is executed too to customize rom: these package runs according to the commands inside various config*.txt files in oem packages or sometimes in ext packages
4) user configuration, usually included as a call inside one of conf*.txt files is executed. If you don't use xda_uc, user customization should follow the same syntax as autorun/runcc
5) Last conf*.txt file should include at least a
LOCK: Disabled and a reset
At this point you should have completed the welcome wizard. If not, and your calibration data is not in registry, your are prompted again with welcome wizard at second boot.
Common errors during boot sequence are:
- wince.nls is missing
- app.dat / initflashfiles.dat error, such as creating subfolders inside non existent folders or statements not in unicode format
- registry / provxml errors during setup of welcome.exe itself, for example you disable the whole welcome wizard but don't write calibration data into registry
- chain error inside conf*.txt files, such as config.txt calls config_operator.txt which call config.txt, generating a loop
- a cab or command inside a config*.txt files cannot be installed, for example for lack of space or a missing certificate
What I usually do in these cases is:
- check platformrebuild log file for errors
- save my last tmp/dump folder to check what is really inside the rom and what is really overwritten by what
- If you can connect by activesync to device before reboot, explore the device itself, it's processes and registry
- recompile the rom putting semaphores inside app.reg files, .provxml files, config*.txt file. I usually add an ext package to be included as the last one (ZZZ_Claros_Fix) where I put a special app.reg, a .provxml and a modified copy of config.txt, config_operator.txt, config_end.txt etc etc.. If you don't have a diamond, you can boot without sdcard to avoid any sd_config.txt error
Starting a new kitchen from scratch for me is at least 20 days of work, I'd spend a day more finding a solution

A Mortscript called Autorun.exe
V2 working again, Cheers!
*i started setting up a new kitchen then thought f*ck that!
Rn
Are you saying that you were cooking in mortscript, and the autorun.exe file from the mortscript package over-wrote the one from your OEM package? I think that happened to me once a while ago. I just left out the one from mortscript; I've never needed it before, anyway.
...
yeah a mortscript called Autorun.exe over-wrote my OEM Autorun.exe
i deleted it the mortscript, everythings sound now
While cooking my ROM for testing under emulator, i create a directory called "MyTweeks" and copy it under sys folder.
That directory includes the following files:
1- "mytones.mp3".
2- "initflashfiles.txt" --> empty.
3- "option.xml" --> contents are not necessary.
4- "7fd5181e-f7fc-4404-908a-7f71e2568c53.rgu"
The .RGU file includes:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]

After the ROM boots-up, i found the .MP3 file copied successfully to \windows directory, but the registry tweak is not there
can any one tell me what's wrong with this .RGU?
Also, any registry entry is missing....
You should post this to the respective kitchen thread to get an answer.
you better check for duplicated GUID(number) or post your whole rgu contents. do you have enter(empty line) at its end?
eventually - another guid has priority because of overall number rule(thus your tweak is overwritten by another rgu).
and ignore posts like above...it's typical here;/(you know +1 to posts count, but 0 help given).

Your comment sounds good for me.
I already post all the content of the .RGU file as above, nothing more in the file.
Yes, i entered a blank line just before the end of the file.
There is no other GUID with the same name in the whole project at all, it is actualy unique number like this:
7fd5181e-f7fc-4404-908a-7f71e2568c53.rgu
How can i give this .RGU a priority? or make the changes after all other changes?
if this question couldn't be answer here, where exactly should i post (whitch Threads)?
higher number has higher priority(at last in normal kitchens), so ffxxxxxx- will overwrite 7fxxxxxx-.
just do search for HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0 on whole kitchen(UNICODE search) to determine, if that reg entry is doubled/tripled etc...also, make another search(ascii search) for same reg entry regarding provxmls(as it's another way of reg import, and this is overwriting all rgu's eventually).
on the other hand i wonder about mp3 as ringtone, are you sure, if that file is ok(i mean, if it really work as ringtone on your actual rom)? sometimes system sets ringtone to default, if file set is let's say..bad.
btw, do not make guid by yourself, use tool for this:
www.guidgen.com
ahhh, another thought:
try to add
"DefaultSound"="\\windows\\xxx.xxx"
to your reg.

1- MP3 as a ringtone is working fine if i manually change it. why you're wondering about that?
2- I tried to do the registry manually after booting, it works great. but in kitchen it isn't.
3- I tried many time to Generate a UUID by the help of the site you sent me with no success.
4- I did a search in the project and found the following:

5- I tried "DefaultSound" with no success.
Thanks.
You didn't mention a .dsm. I suspect you need to create one with the same guid as the .rgu.

I used "totalfire" to create one but the same problem still there.
also, if i removed it from the folder, the BuildOS creates a dummy one with the same results.
really, i fed-up, but i'm thanking all of you whom tried to help
I just need any one of whom success to apply his own registry tweaks in his cooked ROM to tell me how he did it..
As Simple As this....
edit.. I attached the files that i need it to be installed...
ok, this may be weird what i am gonna write, but have you tried to place your ringtone in proper place designed for additional ringtones by initflashfiles?
here's catch - some things WONT work when not COPIED while first boot.
i have no time for explaining this, but try to edit initflashfiles to copy this ringtone to proper place, than edit reg to match.
and another interesting thing: try to rename Mytones to mytones.
before this - check one thing with rom that was not working earlier - make sr, and go into windows to see, if your file became..folder.
there's small chance of getting weirdness with files with capital letters in name, sometimes.
and finally - did you make softreset before checking, if ringtone is set after flash(do NOT check this before first softreset)?
and postfinally - convert your file to something native for WM(weak advice, but...).
btw, skip dsm for this, it is useless for such things.
@pupakota
I tried but still something wrong.
I have no problems with the file copy, the file copied successfully.
The problem with the registry entries... any registry entries within the .RGU file didn't applied after flashing the ROM or even First Softreset after first boot.......
There are nothing changed in the emulator registry for any of the registry entries.
one thing, you are making this for emulator(Oo)?
have you checked your pack on real device?
you shouldn't take emulator behaviour as sure mirror of real thing...
You should try putting another registry key into that .rgu; it could just be a dummy key (like hklm\software\test). Then see if it is parsed during cooking. It's starting to sound more like a provxml is over-writing your values during bootup.
