Hi,
unfortunately I am not able to implement a new *provxml to a new ROM.
I know http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398025
and some other threads, but all my entries (Mailaccounts, WiFi informations - which I got with rapiconfig) are not in my new ROM.
I am doing somewhere a mistake. It does not work:
I have done the following:
1. created an acconts.provxml
2. renamed to _setup.xml
3. Created an OEM package with Ervius Package Creator.
Have now 5 files in the OEM folder: _setup.xml, *.rgu, *.dsm (size 0k), option.xml and initflashfiles.txt
4. Moved option.xml out of the OEM folder
5. Drag and drop OEM folder over BuildDSM.exe. This creates a new *dsm (size 1k)
6. place back option.xml in OEM folder
7. copy OEM folder under \Packages - i have tested also the OEM folder
8. cooked and burned ROM
Does someone has a OEM package with a *.provxml (including email2 and wi-fi infos). All imported emai-addresses and wifi info van be deleted of course. ?
If I use "rapiconfig.exe /p _setup.xml" all my infos are ok.
Any help is welcome.
Regards

this is what works for me...
you have to name it:
mxipupdate_zz_oemoperators_100_PPC+All_filename.provxml
you can replace 'filename' with whatever you wish.
(there should be no space in provxml, this editor isn't working right for some reason)
let us know if this works for you...

Hello,
what do you really mean ?
I have renamed my _setup.xml to mxipupdate_zz_oemoperators_100_PPC+All_filename.provxml and put this file \OEM\OperatorPKG. After cooking and burning my Kaiser does not boot any longer - I have to reverted to my old ROM.

have you tried creating a cab file with your _setup.xml?
see if that works, maybe your xml has errors.
as far as creating a dsm, all I did was drop the file into another oem folder that already had some provxml files.
the fact that your phone won't boot now would indicate to me that after the filename change the file is indeed being processed, but the xml has errors.
download the 'tmobileforromcooks.zip' file in the following post and compare the provxml files with yours.

hint hint: Try adding these settings to an already existing prov.
as i read somwhere you cannot add any provxml file in a dumped rom! but u can change and add reg edits in an existing provxml file. and theres another thing i think you should know: provxml files are the last reg based files that will get written in the cooked rom SO they have the ability to change and overwrite rgu files that you created if they both have the same reg path but diff values.

Hi,
I was trying to sort out contents for my ROM. I made 3 folders for media contents - music/photo/video - which i put in the EXT folder.
Now, the contents, the song and its album art, in the music folder were processed okay. They showed up fine after I flashed the ROM. But not for the contents in the other two folders. I checked the build log and while the folders were included in the ROM, none of the files in those folders were processed.
I then put back some of the files to the original folder to see what happens and worked fine.
I searched around the forum but couldn't find anything or maybe I just didn't do it right. But please enlighten me on why this happens.
Thanks.
you should edit the regs in your camera EXT PKGS that way you will be able to create those folders and of course make some directories by app.dat check your initflashfiles.dat to know how

Thanks for the reply.
This is my first time cooking a ROM so please be patient. Still learning here.
I think I wasn't being clear. What I was saying was that the files weren't included in the cooking process, even though I enabled the folders in EVK already.
Usually, whatever folders I enable in the EVK, the files inside those folders will be in the Windows directory after I flash the ROM. And when I check the build log, they're there.
I still don't get why. I did download another kitchen and check and the owner just added a provxml file to copy those files to My Pictures/My Videos folder. I also tried that and nothing happened. I guess that's because the files didn't get processed during ROM creation and weren't in the Windows directory to begin with.
The ones in the SampleMusic was okay and I did use a provxml to copy it to My Music folder. I took out the provxml and worked fine. The files were found in the Windows directory. So I put some files back into the original folder in the SYS and they showed up. Very puzzling.
Oh i understand now
Well, if you want to move the files you can use the provxml... cause the EVK will add all files first in windows "ALL" then it will makes a copy of that files where you want them... Using the app.dat file inside every EXT PKG check them
I just cooked with a different set of SYS and will leave those sample multimedia files where they are. Not a big deal anyway.
As for those EXT packages/folders I made, I just moved the files from my stock OEM over only. Most of them don't have app.dat/app.reg/provxml as I want to make sure the cooked ROM work without trouble first before I mess around with those registry files.
Got a question though. If I make app.dat/app.reg/provxml for these packages, do I leave the stock registry files alone or modify them or even delete them?
well if you went from OEM to EXT the rgu should be converted into app.reg if not... "do it" cause RGU is not a file that will be registered and imported by the rom and app.reg is the file you must to use for import regs into the cooking process
The thing is that many rgu files I see, they have settings for multiple apps. I have to separate them into different files before I convert them right? And some apps have settings on multiple rgu/provxml files. What a pain.
And I just found out there's a program that converts OEM to EXT. And there I was, doing it manually the other day.
When I'm cooking multiple applications in to my ROM, I have an issue where different applications have the same file name and over-write each other.
For instance,
when cooking in G-Alarm and Opera Mobile they both have image files called something like "nextbutton.png."
So it seems that one of them over writes the image file of the other, which results in one using the image file of the other.
Is there an easy way to fix this?
found the answer!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530710
I don't know if anyone finds this interesting.. But if you are cooking in a lot of EXT packages, chances are you're going to over write several files with common names.. (they all get put in the \Windows\ directory..).
Heres a simple little solution:
(make a batch file and paste this in it)
::for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /b /a-d') do rename "%%a" "ab0_%%a"
for %%a in (*) do rename "%%a" "ab0_%%a"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Paste this in the files directory of your EXT package. It will add a prefix to your files.
Then simply edit the app.dat file in your EXT package with any text editor that has "search and replace" and search for "\Windows\" and replace with "\Windows\ab0_" where ab0 - is the prefix you added to your files.
You'll need to manually edit any lines where \Windows\ was in the destination path, and not the source path. Generally these are a couple lines at the end of your app.dat file.
Hope this helps someone else!
Hi all!
I searched a lot on that topic an coocked loads of roms (for XPERIA/Kovsky/Venus) for testing purpose...But I cannot find a solution for that.
All my recently cooked ROMS (several Builds) are missing root certificates, I only have each two from HTC and Sony Ericsson in Setings. What went Wrong? where to find them? I thought to have found them in the following provxml's which actually is not the case I found out... (see below)
<old> Here is my problem. Build 23541 is seemingly (at least for me) missing root certificates. I managed to figure out they are included in a provxml called mxip_wpc_3.provxml. So I copied that one from a official LEO ROM (Build 21***) and did not change anything. After flash I can find it located in \Windows\ but the certificates are not appearing in Settings.
Now I now that provxmls need to be in UTF-8 format and set to read only, hidden and system. That ist tha case with this specific file. So what's wrong? </old>
I hope that someone can help me with that topic cause I have no other idea now.
Thanks A lot guys!
Hilaireg put together a really good tutorial om provxml's. Look it up, it may help. And make sure NET CF is cooked in (just a guess).
I guess you don't have that provxml added to any of dsm files . Just use this tool and add it to any of dsm files.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523139
You can also use xml parser to check if file is good, for example Serna Editor.

Do you happen to know if that is needed too with platformrebuilder?
I've never worked with it but my guess is that you won't have to manually add provxml to dsm files.

Thnkas as well, Layout is probably good, as the are woring in that LEO ROM.
I will look a bit deeper in your link, this sounds like the right way.
Are there other sugestions?

Tryed that now...But it did not help! Considering the xml is good (as it is working in a leo ROM) what else opportunities are there?
EDIT: Tried to import the provxml's (mxip_wpc_2.provxml and mxip_wpc_3.provxml) using AdvancedConfig but with no luck. Wondering...
Rename the file ZZZmxip_wpc_3.provxml and try again. EVK processes .provxml files in alphabetical order. If a directory referenced in the above .provxml is not created by a previously processed .provxml, then the modifications will not be applied.
I guess you are referring to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=707717
From what I understand (probably very little) your provxml got executet too early as one shortcut was not yet present in the startmenu, so it stopped, right? With my files they do not depend on other files / reg values as these are just certificates...anyway, lets see
I will do so now, but I also tried to build a clean (no EXT) ROM from 23563 Rollup thread by Da_G and had the same problem! This is starting to get starnge...Will report in about 30 mins.
EDIT: Renaming did not help. Starting to get frustrated...
EDIT2: Even converting that provxml to a cab did not work. Am I looking in the wrong place?
Yes that thread, some ppl said that you need to edit the OEMs dsm where you add the provxml and add the provxml into it, dunno if it works... another one is... when a provxml fails in a corrupted line the next lines dont be executed but the before lines were set... so maybe the dirty way can works for you... if not works... your provxml is wrong in that thread many ppl said something about using a tool to see if the provxml is ok try them too
the dirty way to make it is... ad the provxml lines in your provxml to any other provxm... remember to keep the same attributes in that provxml.

trying the dirty way now.
I checked the provxml using a provxml2cab converter which usualy gives an error on bad files. And I am using Notepad++ which makes chacking quite easy. Than again, it comes from a official ROM and was not modified...
EDIT: Nope, not included!
what does that provxml has inside? some icons arrangement? or shortcuts?
Root certificates. both are attached below.
Are you using oskitchen alpha? There have been some problems with provxml not running (hence the alpha) but alpha5 should be fine.
Not sure? Its the NewUI Version and one of the last ones with the old folder structure (I think 1.27 or so)

It was a problem specific only to the 1.31 alphas. Make sure the provxml files have the three attributes set (hidden, read-only and system), that could be the cause of the issue.
I am pretty sure the attributes are stet as you say.
If dirty way doesn't work, then I'm pretty sure it's something wrong with provxml file.

The only real way to find out is to set oskitchen to stop before imgfs generation or setting LZX and going quickly in the platformrebuilder temp\dump folder while it's generating IMGFS and using the ATTRIB command on the files in the dump folder to see what attributes those end up with. If all those three attributes aren't set the files won't run.
I'm pretty sure I've had provxml file with no attributes and it worked perfectly, but maybe I'm wrong .
Sorry for being dumb once again.
I know how to create an XML and convert reg files to PROVXML etc but :
I flashed my cooked rom and did snapshot with kheb made all my changes and got a difference .reg file.
I converted that to PROVXML cause i believe its the best way of doing it.
What I dont know is what to do with it and where to put it in order to flash it.
Ive put it under custom settings\files but iot needs to be named something specifically according to 0Kitchen . Also i have an xml file that has my exchange settings in that which i want to cook in as well but dont know how.
I do use XDA uc but id prefer to let it be done with runcc or something?
Please advise whats better and whats the difference between the differentx PROVXML file naming.
Thanx
I would preffer using reg instead Provxml because they take a lot of time for 1st boot....anyway you need to name them mxip_xxxx.provxml if im not wrong.

There's various file names, mxip, mxipinit and mxipupdate. In my experience I've never needed to add anything to a .dsm file, as long as the extension is .provxml they execute ok.
What I do though, is put my post-boot provxml's into the very last folder that my kitchen picks up so it's named ZZZ_postboot_provxml or something similar and I also name the file to mxipupdate_zzzPostBoot.provxml but I'm not sure if this helps. I do this because:
If you use total commander and search for *.provxml files in your windows folder you might find that none of them have the original name you gave in your packages, but if you step through the files you find there, you can see the execution order.
Hope this helps a bit.

ok so postboot is also one of the names like mxipinit and mxipupdate. Why are there so many different ones and which ones are executed in what order?

I think the order is all to do with the way the kitchen picks them up. e.g. I use OSKitchen and it seems SYS, then OEM, then EXT packages are picked up, alphabetically-so my provxml's get the same order, which is why I put them in a package of their own with the ZZZ_postboot name. It just makes it the last one to be picked up of the EXT packages-ensuring everything is in place when the script runs

Welcome to my tutorial in cooking for the TG01.
I shall no longer be updating this thread, so please feel free to post and make any contribution you see fit.
This is meant to be a very simple, plain English guide to cooking.
With this in mind i will not be showing you how to port a new sys/xip or any of the more advanced features like sense
lets just see if we can dump, modify, build then flash a working, booting ROM for now.
This tutorial is only what i have learnt whilst beginning to cook my own ROM, so if you find a mistake or have something to offer feel free to post
If you have a question that your going to post, please please search the forum first, i learnt a lot of what i know from threads that have nothing to do with the TG01 or even the type of kitchen we're using. So as the rules state - Search before posting, Thank you.
Modifying the ROM of a Windows Mobile is dangerous to your devices health. If you mess it up it can be fatal.
The information contained in this tutorial is only as far as i am aware. Don't blame me if you brick it.
Having said that, i have never had a problem the short pin method couldn't fix.
You will need the attached .zip file, it contains the kitchen and associated applications.
In this tutorial i am using L3V5Ys kitchen, cab converter by Jason8, Package converter by Total Fire and Package Creator by Ervius.
So thanks to them and everyone in the XDA community for making this kind of thing possible.
1. Dump a ROM
1.1. Download the ROM you wish to modify. I suggest Miros miROM4, its clean and fast without any clutter.
1.2. Extract the ROM and place the resulting .tsw file in the BASE folder in the kitchen. Then rename it "TG01WP_5005000176.tsw"
1.3. Run dump.bat and wait for it to finish, this could take a little time depending on you PC, it may be worth making a tea as it seems to take longer if you watch it.
1.4. You should now have some new folders in your kitchen, for now the only one were interested in is SYS.
2. Modify a ROM (Removal of packages)
2.1 Open your kitchen folder then open the SYS folder,
2.2 You should now be faced with a window with lots of folders in it. The folders are called packages.
2.3 Delete the package Entertainment and its associated packages (Entertainment, Entertainment_DPI_192, Entertainment_Lang_0409 and Entertainment_Lang_0409_DPI_192)
2.4 This has effectively deleted the games that ship with your chosen ROM,
2. Modify a ROM (Adding packages)
2.1 Open your kitchen folder then open the SYS folder.
2.2 Copy the package from its source to the SYS folder. Remember that for this kitchen it must be an OEM\old type package (see post #4)
2.3 Thats it, you added software to your custom ROM.
2. Modify a ROM (modify existing package)
2.1 Open your kitchen folder then open the SYS folder.
2.2 Open the folder titled "Redist_dpi_192_resh_480_resv_800"
2.3 Replace welcomehead.192.png with the one in the downloaded zip.
2.4 That's it, when you boot your new ROM it should show the new welcome screen.
3. Building and flashing a ROM
3.1 Run "2. build no XIP port_no auto.bat" (this is the original build.bat, modified by myself to skip the port xip and BuildOS/auto parts)
3.2 When the cmd prompt opens press any key
3.3 When BuildOS opens check the packages you wish to install then click the green arrow in the top left.
3.4 When BuildOS has finished, close it and the cmd window will carry on opening and closing other programs as it goes. You do not need to touch any thing till it has finished and it asks you to hit enter.
3.5 Assuming you pressed enter when it asked, the cmd window will have now closed.
3.6 Go into your kitchen folder and you should have a new file called "TG01WP_00.tsw" This is your ROM.
3.7 Copy "TG01WP_00.tsw" to a folder called PRG on your storage card (if its not there then create it) and then run SDDL+ or use the short pin method to flash it.
3.8 That should be it, you should now have the rom you started with but minus solitaire.
The Kitchen:
In your "Kitchen" you will find some folders and some files. They all relate to either the ROM ityself,
or the tools used to edit/dump/create the ROM.
BASE - This is the folder in which you put the rom you are dumping
OEM - This is the folder where the Toshiba part of the ROM would be if it was an official Rom that was being dumped,
however when dumping a cooked ROM this folder will be empty as a cooked ROM cannot be dumped correctly by the tools available
and all packages are put in the SYS folder. This will not affect the output, and the OEM packages can be left in the sys folder.
If you dump a cooked ROM you will need to create the OEM folder as BuildOS panics without it, even if its empty it needs to be there.
SYS - This folder contains the dumped ROM separated into packages
ROM - This folder contains the xip, boot.rgu and boot.hv. For this tutorial we won't be working with anything here.
TOOLS - This is where the exe's are that make up the kitchen, you don't need to touch these, the .bat files do it all for you.
Temp - This is the kitchens working folder, you don't need to go here unless there are problems building the ROM but that is beyond the scope of this tutorial.
Packages: (there are 2 types, EXT and OEM, our kitchen can only handle OEM so thats what i'll be discusing)
Each package contains an element of the ROM. For example the BROWSING package contains the parts of the ROM required for internet browsing.
For a package to be usable it requires certain things
Required:
.dsm file - This is to complicated for the scope of this tut so for now just accept that this file is necessary and should never be deleted. All dsms must have a unique name.
That is all a package needs to be a package, though without any files in it won't actually do anything.
Optional:
.rgu file - This file contains the reg entries for the package in question and its name will be the same as the .dsm file in your package.
initflashfiles.txt / initflashfiles.dat - This file tells the PPC where to put the files that are within the package, ie. a short cut to a program in the start menu.
NOTE without an initflashfiles.txt all items within the package will go to the Windows folder.
option.xml - Holds information relevant to the package
The files you wish to install, without them its pretty pointless.
Packages often have other packages associated to them, for example the Entertainment package also has Entertainment_DPI192, Entertainment_Lang_0409 and Entertainment_Lang_0409_DPI_192.
Where Entertainment is the package, Entertainment_DPI_192 has the files specifically for our screen size, Entertainment_Lang_0409 has the files for our language (0409 is WWE)
and Entertainment_Lang_0409_DPI_192 has files that are for our lang and our screen size.
Modifying a .rgu file:
.rgu files contain registry information for the package they are in. If you wish to modify this data then you can do so with notepad, though i recommend downloading Notepad2. If you open a .rgu file and don't understand what's in it then you need to go learn about windows registry editing first. I am assuming that if you are looking at building a custom ROM you already know about reg editing.
CAB Converter:
This program is used to convert a .cab file into a package to be cooked into a ROM
1.Open CAB_Converter.exe
2.Click "add a cab" and browse to your cab or drag and drop your cab into the window
3.Click on the text representing your cab at the top of the window so its selected.
4.Click CAB->OEM, and wait till its finished. Should only be a few seconds.
5.Your package will be in the CAB Converter folder in the converted OEM folder
Package Converter:
Our kitchen only supports OEM\Old type packages, so what if we want to use an EXT\Visual type package? Well Total Fire kindly made and distributed a tool that converts from one to another.
The program is fairly self explanatory but i'll quickly cover converting from a visual to an old package.
1.Open the converter, then click "select" where the greyed text say package,
2.Browse to and open your visual package.
3.click "Convert VTO", now wait till you see "Conversion Complete".
4.Your now usable package will be in the same directory as the visual package with the text "PACKAGE TF" added to the title.
Package Builder:
If you wish to create your own packages, this is the tool to do it.
1.Create a folder named whatever you want your package to be named
2.Add to it the files you want
3.Add to it a .reg file if required
4.Open package Creator, in the bottom right you can choose ITA or ENG.
5.Click open package and browse to the folder you created.
6.Now the initflashes.txt options page appears, here you can select the .exes in your package and choose where to create short cuts. You will need to click apply on each one.
7.Now click complete package.
8.The creator will now create a .dsm file, a .rgu file with your .reg file settings in, an initflases.txt file and an option.xml file within the folder turning it into a package.
9.This package can now be used in your kitchen.

5.Your package will be in the CAB Converter folder in the converted OEM folder

Its better to grab hold of one of the existing opera packages on the forum, I never successfully converted it to a working package. Just seemed to be the opera cab as i have no problems with any other. I think ninjaduck does a nice version with flash and the like already in.
I never saw that particular error myself though. Sorry I can't be more help.
So long and thanks for all the fish.
I will no longer be updating this or any of my ROM threads as its upgrade time and I've got a shiny new Desire HD, my trusty TG01 has been retired and i'm off to have a bodge with Android.
The TG01 forum is a nice little place with only a hand full of regular contributors/posters but its always friendly and development seems to move along at a steady pace, so thanks to all its members for that.
To those who PM me, feel free to continue as i will still be around here somewhere and will help in anyway i can.
See you later.

Hi Lee!
TG01 community will miss your contributions! In case your retired TG01 lures you back to development, I will keep my eyes peeled. I hope you like your new android, but in case, Winmo is missed (I wish!), do come back!
Hi.
Leeston2379 will not be doing any changes here any more so I allow myself to upload my version of his kitchen here without creating new thread.
What has been changed ?
"Virgin" kitchen was only for packages modification without any pagepool changes or xip porting. Leeston2379 was basing on l3v5y kitchen which have certain bug. Interestingly this bug was "not active" as far as old ( original ) xip.bin was taken in .tsw file creation.
There are 4 batch files for new system building:
a) 2. build_without_xip_port.bat - the same as original leeston2379 batch but with fixed bug although here it is not "active"
b) 2. build_without_xip_port_pagepool_set.bat - allows to set pagepool size
c) 2. build_with_xip_port.bat - like original but allows to port new xip
d) 2. build_with_xip_port_pagepool_set.bat - like original but allows to set pagepool size and port new xip
I did not utilize automatic execution via for example
AutoExecAndClick.exe /launch "xipport.exe" /clickbutton "dump xip.bin" /clickbutton "write maps" /clickbutton "make pkgs" /kill
In my oppinion it is buggy . There are any timing races or something other causing any strange errors from time to time. User has to like in original l3v5y kitchen press different buttons in xipport software.
Thanks Mangasora for his post concerning porting xip
