Expanding SuperJustKitchen to the Opal

I'm looking to expand SuperJustKitchen from the Herald to the Opal. Basically, it's based on Ervius's Visual Kitchen with batches to do other things. It currently supports 13 languages for the Herald and usually gets the newest 6.1 build, the newest old gui 6.5 and the newest new gui 6.5.
I figured since you guys have a QVGA phone, I'd start with you guys.
I need something from you guys, though:
I need the RUU for the Opal on EVERY language that it was released in.
Thanks guys!

Find another theme. There are some nice ones in the main development forums.
Let's get back on topic, I still need some RUU ROMs. ^_^

Ok, I ported the Opal to my kitchen in WWE(0409-English) and RUS(0419-Russian).
I need someone with an Opal here to test a ROM made with it to see if it works at all. If it does, then you guys can start using it when v0.5 comes out.

Ok, can someone try this out?
http://justkitchen.info/JustROMs/OpalTest.7z
It's very basic and stripped. I just want to see if it flashes and runs.

Well, I went ahead and merge Opal but only in English to the Herald kitchen. Actually, the switch brought upon many reforms. Can someone please test that nbh that I posted so I can know if the Opal builds work at all?
At the moment the kitchen can build the following:
21054 - WM6.1
23016 - WM6.5 with older GUI​ 23060 - WM6.5 with new redesigned GUI
23420 - WM6.5.1 with new internal code and redesigned GUI (But buggier)

Not Working

When flashing my phone it reached 100% and after the phone restarted it goes to the tri color screen with an error "upgrade ROM code error Please try again"

hmm... Does this ever happen with other ROMs for your device? If so, what causes it then? I'll research the error as well.

[Question] How to do this in the HD2 ???

First of all, Happy new year to everyone
I was wondering how can we allow the HD2 to preview a language other than english, such as sms, email, contacts without changing the GUI language.

Try in regional settings,
selecting your preferred language

Hi Zazu and happy new year to you.
You can download the manuals for the HD2 from HTC's website which should help you get to know your new toy better.

Well, yes, that works if one is using an alphabetic language. Unfortunately, such a simple solution is not possible if the required language is an Asian language. Under those circumstances, installing fonts is required, or flashing a ROM that supports the language so that you can also use a soft keyboard for input.

@Som30ne: Thank you for replying, but Arabic is not found in one of the languages
@wacky.banana: Thanks for the tip, I did that already and read through it, perhaps I missed it but i couldnt find anything that referred to adding an asian language.
@rlydiard: So where can I download an asian font for the phone ? And where should I install it.
I am skeptic about flashing the ROM because it voids the warranty, and can damage the phone if done incorrectly.
Thank you all for the help

I wish I could help you more on locating Arabic fonts, but as I am based on the island where HTC is headquartered, I am only familiar with installing traditional or simplified Chinese fonts in an English UI.
There are many talented Arabian members on XDA who can probably start you out in the right direction. Any fonts you acquire can be placed in the Windows folder on your device. This method will allow you to read the Arabic fonts on your device, but your keyboard would not allow you to write, so that is a whole other problem.
Perhaps doing a search of all the forums will come up with some leads on locating an Arabic font for you.

Maybe you should try this:
http://www.penreader.com/pocket-pc/...abic_Download_area_for_Language_Extender.html

What you need is an Arabizer and as far as I know one of the best solution is MOBiDIV (http://www.citglobal.com/mobidiv/home.jsp) It's shareware but really reliable and as far as i Know it has been testet successfully on HD2....

Unfortunately, not all answers can be found in HTC user manuals, but then, that is why XDA Developers exists in the first place, right? Getting unofficially supported languages to work on our beloved HTC devices is a good example of that.

@rlydiard: Thank you for the help anyway
@Som30ne: This program changes the language of the whole UI, I only want the phone to read another language, keyboard isnt as important now since its a hassle to fix.
@lee1980: Thank you for the link, ill read more into it
Guys I want to ask, if I copied an Arabic font from C:\Windows\Fonts in my computer to the HTC Windows folder, will that work ?
Thanks for the help Really appreciate it !!

Hmm I want to try sending some fonts to the phone, but should I send OpenType or TrueType ?
Can anyone please tell me if I can add fonts this way ?

Hey guys, how come there are many views and no new replies ((
I tried sending a font from C:\Windows\Fonts to HTC Windows\Fonts
But nothing really happened, I restarted the phone and nothing happened as well.
Any thoughts ?

You can try the attached file. It uses traditional Chinese though, not simplified characters. Unfortunately, at the moment I do not have a solution for simplified characters. Also, you can check this thread

If I find another solution I will let you know. In the meantime, you might post a request on the thread where the last solution was found. Maybe someone there knows how to change the order of words. It seems like a rather strange bug. You might also follow this thread, although I know you do not want to flash your LEO.

[SOLVED] Strange Problem With Email and Keyboard - Help Please

Ok, since updating my HD2 kitchen with some new stuff from the oboe ROM dump, whenever I use the email client, and I create a new message or reply to one, I can't get the keyboard to show. It is always stuck on the numpad, no matter which one I choose. Only Swype works as it's independant from the rest.
Can someone please explain where the keyboard is "chosen" for particular applications, and where I can start looking?
This one has me puzzled...
Thanks

[Q] open and Modify ROM

O.K. i have looked for the answer to this question and the closest i can get is from a post in 2006 using Hypercore. So with that said i am sorry if i am overlooking the the answer somewhere. i love the WhiteStone_WM6.5_D4C2_21905_COM2_PV built by "pdaviet".The problem is that I would like to open this rom and add a couple of thing to it wrap it back up and put it back on my phone. How do i do this. i have been trying to figure this out for 6 hours now and i am about to lose my mind not to mention my eyes. any direction somebody can point me is appreciated.

Try this method, and ignore posts that say you can't dump protected roms. You may need to change settings, depending on the device.

Depends on what device you use. Not an easy task if you have no idea how the cooking process work.

thanks for quick reply i would like to adjust it for hd2.

I got this kitchen customized only for TP2 devices. No time to adjust it for HD2.
BTW Anyway even if you would have such a kitchen for HD2, I don't think it will be any usage for you if you don't know how cooking works...

thanks again i only need this to add few apps in a custom rom.i dont know much about cooking but i am trying to learn with help ofnice people like you.

Just install them by using cab files. Much easier (and safer!).
Recooking roms is not something you are able to learn in a day or two.

i know it is not easy but can you please tell me how can i modify this to extract leo rom.thanks

You're gonna need to modify the ini files in the tools folder. I think you'll need to add the HD2 to the list in htcrt.ini and htcrt_devices.ini, and then get a Leo.htcrtproj file. The easiest thing would be to download a Leo-specific kitchen and get the files (or maybe the settings that you need.). I've never done it before, but it looks pretty easy. Just open the files with notepad, and you'll see what's missing.

thank for reply .i will give it a try,

Help me !!! Start Menu not open.

Dear,
Not found the solution. Could someone teach me how to solve my problem?
I'm a beginner cook to the i900 and then I made a new compilation of my Start Menu no longer open ? Can not see my application icons.
Any help or advise would be a good size.
Thank you all.
mureta.

Cook in all of the sys packages; you're leaving out something important. Make sure you get the right dpi/lang. I think most of the start menu stuff is in the Base packages. You probably left one out. Anyway, until you know really well what you need in your builds, it's best to cook in all of the sys packages for your device.

That usually happens when one of the .cpr files are missing, like Farmer said...

@Farmer Ted
Again thanks for your great help provided as always. I'll find out on their boards.
@NRGZ28
I will check on your help. Thanks. I am a great admirer of his work.
Note:Without the help of you could not imagine what could be.
Not wanting to bother, I put my attached SYS-Lang, only for a simple conference of you EXPERTS!
Tnks so very much. Sry my english.
mureta.

@Farmer Ted and NRGZ28
Well guys, apparently my SYS is good, I'm deducing that since there was no comment.
I've only had several builds and still the same thing, even all complete. Regarding the file (. cpr), really do not know where to find the solution which the file properly connected and how to change the file, what I did was copy and change all the (. cpr) that works in the kitchen and put in English in my kitchen in Portuguese, but without success.
If possible, I would like a teaching easier, if possible.
Grateful.

I am guessing your taskbar icon mod if you have any.
But best bet is to disable all mods, cook only stock pkgs and see what happens. Then add mods one by one.
