Cooking with Ervius Kitchen,CMD batch files and Mortscript - Windows Mobile

Hi, I propose this new thread for two things:
- Share my cooking method and asking for help in order to bring it to the next level.
- Share other cooking techniques based on EVK, and Mortscript and Batch Files automation.
So let's start:
The second post covers cooking icons with mortscript. The attachment below has all the code.
The fifth post covers my Ervis Visual Kitchen extrabuttons: Lots of automation for helping upgrade the kitchen, help cooking the rom and customizing the ppc.
The zip is in 4shared since has exes inside and can not be posted here.
Hopefully, some people will share other code and other ways of cooking. I would appreciate if somebody could help me to integrate this code in the kitchen batch file so that the mortscript would run once the temp/dump files where created but before building the nbh file.
I cheer everibody to post links or code to other batch/cmd scripts that help automation when cooking.

Cooking icons with Mortscript at 1st boot (no files in windows folder)
I was looking for a way to cook shortcuts that:
1) did not overload windows directory
2) was "easy" to mantain (in terms of folders, rank & icons definition)
3) contributed to reduce errors
4) was simple to attach to any EVK kitchen
How I do it?
- On the pc side, I use mortscript to generate automatically a few provxml files that create shortcuts and asign icons, rank and group. Is a two-steps process: 1) I cook the rom, 2) run a ppc mortscript that inspects the dump directory and creates the code only for the exe and mscr files present in the temp\dump folder and zips and copies Icons to the appropiate kitchen EXT folders. It also zips and copies icons to be used on the ppc side 3) I re-cook the rom. Standard windows png are currently stored in the usual windows directory but bonus shortcuts (shortcuts to ext rom packages, to self made scripts, etc) are created in a specific directory out of the windows directory.
- On the ppc side, I use mortscript to generate automatically control panel shortcuts, mortscript shortcuts, shortcuts to main memory programs and shortcuts to sd programs that do not need reinstallation after flashing.
I publish my code as it is now. I start with the basic scripts but will keep adding material if interest is risen.

Please mods, move to another forum if this one is not the appropiate.
I will reserve 3 posts that I will update with contributions to the thread, if any.

Cruiserrr's EVK Extrabuttons
Hi, I have build a little scheleton where I keep on adding the different tools I use in my Roms cooking:
backup the kitchen or parts of it,
download/upload files to the ppc to test,
create build version and date provxml files,
optimize png
import sys (currently da_g structure)
play with the ppc: sync the time, show/kill processes, run programs, reboot
recmod, ...
create .erv file from the latest build cooked

You simply have to download the file and extract it to your extrabuttons folder (please be aware the zip has an extrabuttons ini file that should not be copied but adapted to yours)
Hope you find it useful, you discover tools you did not now of and of couse I post it hoping some other people will share their scripts so we can all benefit from it.

What this moertscripts code do??
And how to cook them??

Modify Cabs

Hi,
I have a cab file of Wm5torage which is asking about restart or not after installation, the problem is that i put this file in my extended rom, to make it installed after a hard reset.
The probleme is the question of restart or no, it hangs the installation.And I have to reboot it myself.
So i would like to know how to avoid this question by modifying the Cab.
Thanks for your futur answers

You can use MSCEInf (http://preview.pocketpcfreeware.com/en/index.php?soft=1519) to see what is inside a cab. Then you can repackage it yourself.
Cheers
Mark
Actually, it's not that simple in this case.
I was hoping the author of the program might see this post and answer you, but let me give it a shot for now.
The reset is done by the cabs setup.dll (it may have a different name inside the cab). Using MSCEInf markvan mentioned or CE Cab Manager (there is a demo version that will run 15 times) you can remove this dll from the cab. Trouble is it may contain other functionality (like reg settings) needed during the installation so the app won't install properly without it.
Sorry.
MSCEInf and SetupDLL.dll
Yes, i have omitted in the last version published of MSCEInf to extract the setup DLL, but the name of the setup DLL in the cab is always ".999". So, for now you can extract it by Winzip or Cabextract.
If there is no file with this extension, there is not setup DLL.
But in the tab : Generalities, you find the name of the setup DLL if it exists.
Future version of MSCEInf (vesion 1.4) will extract the setup DLL. This new version will also do these things :
- Drag and Drop from the Tab Files to the Explorer.
- Context Menu on Files in the Tab to open it with associated application or with Notepad.
- Use Names Folder for extracting.
- read also _setup.xml and do the same as for traditional INF and shows all things in the cab. It also rebuilds the traditional Inf from the XML.
Regards, Benoît
when i use cabs in ext rom which require feedback from the user
and it dont respond to touchscreen i found that
i can just use the action button to choose which answer it should be
Hi,
I extracted the dll and used reshack to edit it but i just see 2 messages in
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
And i don't think that just remove the restart message will solve my prob.
If you have any other idea...

Dll resources have nothing to do with its activities.
The only way to replace it is to know exactly what it does either by asking the author or by viewing the source code (if available).
My advice is this: try installing without the dll. If the app works, then you can dump the dll all together, if not try contacting the program author for help.

Post the cab - i will have a go at modifying it for you - i think its the setup.xml that needs changing.
EDIT managed what you asked (omitted setup.dll and modified setup.xml)- can get rid of the destination dialog as well if you like assuming like me you always install to \program files\wm5torage. Just need to know what version you use.
hi,
thanks for help.I'm using the 1.71 of wm5torage.How to post the file?
bye
herc. 8)
Hi - i use 1.7 - if you want 1.71 you add it as an attachment to your post. It works as you want - do you want no destination dialog as well? I am at work at the moment - will post the modified cab tonight
Modified cab attached - its most up to date version 1.72.
mods are:
1. No setup.dll so no request to restart device (not required anyhow)
2. Installs shortcut to start menu\program files rather than start menu\accessories
3. Installs straight to \program files\wm5torage rather than having a destination dialog.
Many thanks for your help

The Best Way to compare Old & New Registry?

Suggestions welcome!
Have you ever wonder, especially after you installed a new software, what are the registry that are modified?
1. Before install, study CAB file?
2. After install, check manually?
3. Have both Old and New Registry copied and use PC's FC.EXE?
4. Use text editor to open both Old & New Registry files in PC at window maximise mode, use ALT TAB and capture the difference with the Best Camera (your eyes) and Best Image processor (your brain)?
Here is my stupid way of doing it.
5. Have both Old and New Registry copied and use PC's M$ Winword, Document Compare feature.

Hey, Thanks.
Learn a new thing again today.
I also recommend, as far as desktop-based tools are concerned, windiff.
I've even written a tutorial on using it: http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=215073
Perl
This perl script will diff two textual registry files and show the differences.
(hmm no .pl allowed, rename from .txt)
Can't we just open the cab and see what it will add to the registry?
Lol, despite responding to this thread I've never read it
Yes, 100% agree with cellneuron. Decompile the cab, or ideally use WinCE Cab Manager to see what registry changes it will make.
V
hehe. What? Haven't you got time to read all of the threads each day?
anyway, yup, can't argue with that technique either. it never hurts to have too many tools at your disposal though.
Personally, I just found that reading the cab file registry entry format wasn't as clear as simply extracting the keys in .reg format. but that's just my preference.
The problem I've found with just looking in the cab is that sometime the exe files make registry and file changes too. So my vote goes with ssnap and idiff.
In the past I used regdiff and registry workshop.

but as the geeks point out, if I was making an installer I would probably hard code some of the registry entries, so won't be reflected in Cab manager etc. So use a standard registry dump and windiff them, or use ssnap.

Vox Rose Kitchen 2.0 [WM 6.1] + [WM 6.5] + NOW WITH INSTRUCTIONS

Vox Rose Kitchen v2.0
I present to you my new Vox Rose Kitchen v2.0.
​
It now supports the Vox and the Rose.
The downloads here will be Rose specific only.
For the Vox version go here!​
For all things you can do with the kitchen, please look at the thumbnail!
Requirements:
dotNET Framework (at least 2.0)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
Windows XP or higher is recommended (SplashMaker doesn't work under 64-bit operating systems)
Kitchen has to be located like this: %systemdrive%\Vox Rose Kitchen\... -- So in the "Vox Rose Kitchen"-folder should be the exe and all the folders (OEM,SYS,ROM,TOOLS)!
Downloads:
The download comes in two parts!
First is the TOOLS folder and the "Vox Kitchen.exe".
The second part are the ROM, SYS and OEM folders.
General Downloads (always needed):
Download exe, bat and TOOLS folder
just click on install and it will unpack it to your system drive\Vox Rose Kitchen
Downloads for WM 6.1 (20282.1.3.6):
Download OEM folder, SYS folder and the ROM folder.
Downloads for WM 6.5
Download OEM folder, SYS folder and the ROM folder. (please add this XIP.bin to the ROM folder)
The Building Process
Fire up "Vox Rose Kitchen.exe" in the normal kitchen folder ("C:\Vox Rose Kitchen") and go to the build tab. It'll look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The first step is to start G'Reloc and check if the values are right for the Rose (look at the picture) and click on "Do it"!
If you are cooking with WM 6.5 you might get errors, because G'Reloc isn't ready for Wm 6.5. In this case you click OK and then "Do it!" again and it'll tell you which module is producing the error. You can now either go to that folder and use Unlocker to unlock the "tmp"-file and delete it and then click "Do it!" again to keep going or you use recmod to make a file out of the module (better if you are cooking more then once). I recommend the recmod path it's easier and faster once you've eliminated all "bad" modules!
The WM 6.5 package I supply has all modules already fixed, so you don't need to worry (once it's done )!
When G'Rleoc is done (it might look like it hangs and then unexpectedly is done), you can close it and continue on with BuildOS. Here you can choose what to include and what not to include (only OEM packages, if you don't want certain languages (all the xxx_LANG_0XXX folders) or SYS packages you'll have to delete them manually! Please do not remove the package I have marked in the picture, unless you are re-integrating customer service (but why would you ).
Click on the green play button once you have selected everything you want! It'll say done at the bottom once it's done!
When it's done you can close it and click on "Create Rose ROM".
This will automatically insert a xip into the new ROM if there is one present in the ROM folder (xip.bin). You don't need a new XIP for 6.1 and I supply one with my WM 6.5 package (you know...once it's done ). So basically you don't have to worry about XIPs.
​
The cmd window will do everything on it's own and it's done when the window closes itself. You now have a OS-new.nb in the temp folder.
Now open then "Start HTC ROM Tool" and click on "Build!":
Under "Device" choose Diamond and change the "ModelID" to ROSE1000.
Change the "Version" to what ever you want and leave the rest alone.
Then select a OS and choose the OS-new.nb in the temp folder.
Then click on "Build" and save the ROM in TOOLS\RoseFLASH and you are done with cooking!
​

WM 6.1 is completely online. I'll update the thread with some instructions...
Thanks for the Kitchen. Waiting patiently for WM6.5.
Thanks for the Kitchen
ROM.exe for WM 6.1 not valid eror extracting pleas upload again
I'll check...
The upload is fine, please re-download!
Check the 2nd post for instructions on how to cook!
Downloads for WM 6.5 when you post them
I'll upload the files tomorrow!
Thanks for everyting from me
Downloads for WM 6.5 are you gona post them.
Looks good. Is it possible to get this to Norway as well?
WM 6.5 is up. It's the same as my v1.00 Official ROM!

[TOOL] "The Unbelievably Awesome Package Sorter!" (OEM To EXT) v1.1.5

I believe this screenshot is REALLY, REALLY self-explanatory (also notice how the words in package names are also splitted, like AdobePDF becoming "Adobe PDF" and aGPSConfirmation becoming "aGPS Confirmation", it's so awesome that it detects all the words!). This is also the first tool to do all the necessary initflashfiles.dat and config.txt files splitting.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How to use:
Put the EXE where the OEM folder is and then double-click on it, or drag&drop the OEM folder on the EXE (the EXT folder will be created where the EXE is located unless you specify another destination using command line parameters).
Command line syntax (All parameters are optional, including the paths that will default to "OEM" and "EXT" if missing):
Syntax: "The Awesome Package Sorter.exe" [/UseUnderscores] [/Quiet|/Q] [/WriteIndex] [/StripComments] [/OriginalName] [/InternalName] [/NoSplitting] [/SkipNeutralPackages] [/DeleteDSMFiles] [OEMFolderPath] [EXTFolderPath]
/UseUnderscores to have the tool rename all the packages with underscores instead of spaces at the end of the conversion
/Quiet or /Q to enable the quiet mode where only error messages will be shown
/WriteIndex to write a packages index in the EXT folder
/StripComments to save the initflashfiles.dat in OEM_Lang_XXXX with all the comment lines removed
/OriginalName uses the original package name with only the device part removed (like PACKAGE_ManilaCore_1_0_0_0)
/InternalName is like /OriginalName but without the "PACKAGE_" prefix and uses space instead of underscore to separate the name from the version (you can use /UseUnderscores to suppress this)
/NoSplitting turns the file initflashfiles.dat/config.txt splitting off
/SkipNeutralPackages leaves all the packages that don't start with PACKAGE_ in the OEM folder
/DeleteDSMFiles deletes all the DSM files from the packages
Note:
It doesn't have an user-interface, it only shows messageboxes however it will tell you when it starts and when it ends or if there is any issue. It's based on the osKitchen guaranteed file operations engine so nothing will break if the folders are locked.
This and more wonderful automatic package importing functions are now available in the latest osKitchen!
Interesting tool...will give a spin...thx...
Nice to know this thanks AirXtreme hope many ppl can see this.... will u post it in the repository kitchen tool by souchef? please
Here is the link... its a pleasure that you all are making this kind of tools and even better including them into the OSkitchen
Keep it up
Thanks Airxtreme, it´s a super fast tool.
Cheers.
Great tools....thank u doctor airxtreme
Thanks for this Bro
How about a tool like this that does OEM to OEM for chefs that use OEM format. What I mean is to combine the lang pack with the common pack and rename the package with the version info (like with EXT packages), but still retain OEM format?
I notice the 0409 folder does not have a "files" subfolder and the rgu stays a rgu file, but in one of my importing an official ROM to oskitchen created the files subfolder. Also, my kitchen run has the rgu converted to an app.reg in 0409 and it seems to work.
Are you in the process of changing the formats?

No, I forgot to apply the ext formatting to subfolders. I uploaded a fixed version in the first post.
New beta3 that fixes an issue where empty LCID folders were left behind. Thanks to OndraSter for reporting the issue!

Great tool! Is there anyway to have it use _ instead of spaces? I use some .cmd files and the spaces break it.

You can enclose the directory names in batch/cmd files with double quotes to avoid issues with spaces in the file/directory names.
Not I can't, because many of my scripts use for loops with %%a where I do some parsing. It's also cleaner naming in my opinion with _'s instead of spaces in my folder.

Hey, I've been thinking about this for a while, but I don't know the easiest way to do it. Would it be possible, with a given initflashfiles.dat, that it could create app.dat's for you in the EXT folders? All it would have to do is parse the initflashfile lines, find the file, and locate the file in whatever EXT package it was in.
It's not really a request (because it would be a GIANT pain in the ass), but if you wanted another cool tool to work on, it may have it's own interesting challanges... Just a thought.
