Hi
First of all, I'm a newbie cook. I tried porting 23549 into the stock "RUU_Rhodium_S2_HTC_Europe_2.07.401.1_Radio_Rhodium _4.49.25.91_Signed_Ship" rom. It boots up and EVERYTHING seems to work fine (even the Select wi-fi network screen RIGHT BEFORE this one) except this strange bug.
When installing, the "Select wi-fi network" wizard thing moved a few pixels up. All other screens are fine, I've posted two photos to show this.
Any help would be much appreciated

I dont have all information but i think that is a part off the used XIP/SYS.
Thanks.. Well it WAS fine before i ported it so that might be true, however i don't see any complaints in the thread I downloaded that xip/sys from.
You dont use a new WiFi Settings OEM?
No I didn't change anything to do with OEM, i only changed MSXIPKernel and SYS.
Why not post this question in the chef's central forum, where it belongs ?
Looks like it is... now!
You're porting from WM 6.5 to WM 6.5.5 which has a relocated start menu button and resized bars.. this is probably the root cause for that behavior.
Da_G is right(as always), you have done nothing wrong and there is no bug with the sys/xip you are using. the original rom you are using for a base(rhodium 2.07) originally had build 21887 which is wm 6.5 with the start menu at the top, and the new build you ported is wm 6.5.5 which has the start menu on the bottom and buttons with a larger softkeybar. because the softkeybar is now taller, you will have a few issues with some things not fitting the screen correctly. im sure you noticed that your dialer now has a scrollbar on the right side? this is also because of the larger softkeybar. there are some fixes for dialer, menu enhancement, a few other things floating around the forum...if you want to pm me i will give you a link to my rhodium 2.07 kitchen which has most things fixed already
Thanks a lot guys I really didn't notice the Chef Central section That would've saved me A LOT of time.. lol.. Annnd that makes sense..
I'd like that link bro
Thanks again

Glad you liked it.
Indeed... it is quite colorful
MS is going quite bold with colors for win 6.5.. but I like it
I like the blue one, very similar to udK's R6.
just nice and cozy.
@arkavat
nice enhancements there
i have a note for you though
the topaz and rhodium use a different version of HTC menus
The one you posted is for the topaz
Here is my glossy black for the rhodium, you can use it as a base for the layout
Hi,
these should be in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3628390#post3628390

From what i understood it is Rhodium menu enhancements to compliment WM6.5 themes, and the title of the thread is "[THE] WM 6.5 Theme Colours..."
Also, regardless of whether people are going to use these on WM6.5 or WM6.1, the same files get replaced in both versions of windows therefore the thread should just be called "rhodium/topaz colour enhancements"
WM6.5 themes dont work on WM6.1 so why have the matching colour enhancements? which is why i asked!!
I can still post links to them in my thread though right?

The colour enhancement is a pack of files modified by an user for matching colours of WM6.5.
It'll work even on WM6.1 because it is only a file replacement for HTC Rhodium that works on 6.1!

sure. I did think of posting them in your thread, but as kholk pointed out.. these can be used in Win 6.1 as well.
However, I agree with you that they will be primaraily used for win 6.5. Please go ahead and post these in your thread also. I will continue to update them here and notify you, so you can update as well. and/or you can add a link to this thread.
@ Giannis86
Thanks! I will start working on them as well.

I havent seen a thread started with Compilation of WM.6.5 working applications cabs so thouhgt I'd start. If anyone has any to contribute please add.
Here's a few that work on Anryls WM6.5 & Josh's WM 6.5 Kaiser. I will add more as I find them. Hope you guys appreciate!
You should post screen shots as well or at least post the link to the original thread that has screenshots; just a little advice.
Cool point taken, but most of these don't have screenshots. Just thought I'd
share I with community. I can attest that they all work though. Thanks for your reply!
Nothing against your good work, but you have that here already: :/

Unless I'm suddenly becoming senile or blind I looked at your link you posted and don't see compilations of WM6.5 application cabs. I do however see themes tsk's or cabs for themes. Am I missing something? Why does it seem that when you post or try and share with community some always dispute or criticize it. Can you point me to the Post where these cabs are located in your link? Thanks!
i see your point...i didnt see them either
LOL, your right... I need my coffee... X[
Somehow I read QVGA THEMES compilation, not APPLICATIONS... My bad.
---edit---
But for what I tested, all software from wm6.1 works fine on WM6.5... :/
Except HTC driver-related stuff.
Theres are also a few tips here for WM6.5 on the nike (qvga) but its kept seprated from this main post not to be overrun by questions:

is rhodium menu and notification enhancemets somehow working on 6.5 ?
Hi all,
Just after some advice.
I am useing dcd 3.4.3 and am enjoying it.
However, I kinda want to try something new. What is the best wm 6.5 rom out and why?
Hey there. Best 6.5 ROM? That's a matter of opinion. As far as stability is concerned, builds 21501 and 23017 lead the way. 23025 was the most recent build that I tried and it was hard to use. Windows moved the start menu icon and the "X" to the bottom. The GUI was either not user friendly or the version that I used was not made for our native resolution. I was unable to scroll far enough down in the notifications interface to be able to disable vibrate.
Tbonebtone has a nice light 6.5rom posted here in the Titan forum. R.Mogul makes a couple also, but I have never tried them and he uses a very early build.
I have been looking forward to trying the newer builds. I'm sure you have seen the more complete looking graphics and reskinned keyboards that are available in builds 23036 and 37. I am actually trying to familiarize myself with Ervius Visual Kitchen and Porting Tools just so I can try some of these newest builds. Seems support for the Titan device has really died in the past few months.
Hi there,
Thanks for the tip. i will give those to builds a go and report back. If you have anymore info on the latest ones that would be great.

I should have more info on newer builds this weekend. The family is out of town and I have little better to do tomorrow.
In my search on how to accurately update my kitchen for unsupported builds, I came across this thread. It seems that this gentleman is updating us with new roms and providing us with the newest .nbh files. Of course, these are his ROMs, so he added his splash screens that say "WM7"... not sure why??, some games, etc. The buttons on the dialer are transparent with white font, so a darker bg is a must. Also he included the "honeycomb" start menu. Some people like it, but its not for me. Overall, despite the aforementioned, this rom seems stable and boots at a lovely 25.4 mb.
More here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=67673
Hey im sorry to bug the chefs and other members with this question, but i have found a rom that i really like. Only problem is that its for the Verizon Whitestone. It has the cool blue slider, the stock black and white tf3d icons, but it has the my location and weather clock, and it also uses the manila start menu instead of the joke that wm 6.5 uses. I am currently using josh's perfect black v 1.7 and it works great, but i want something a little faster and more stable... if someone knows how to get a rom to do all these things or can cook one like this then that would be amazing =]
Again, i am sorry for bugging ya'll, but i just want a little help =]
Most ROM's have screenshots in the thread. This will probably be closed soon.
Just check out the ROM Threads to get what you need
thats the problem... i check them almost everyday and there is nothing here that is like it =[
You'll just have to keep looking, or ask a chef if they would make a ROM with your preferences. Failing that, get a kitchen and give it a go
Or try and find CABs to change another ROM to match, I think most colours can be changed with CABs, and I'm pretty sure the start menu can too.
Moving to "Themes" sub forum.
Thanks =]
thanks that helps alot... if u dont mind me asking for a huge favor, i honestly dont know where to find a cab to change the slider or the icons for sense ui
You can also search the Topaz or Blackstone themes section. They almost share the same customizations..
My suggestion for a ROM would be deepshining by dotcompt..nice looking ROM and fairly stable... as far as the custom sliders give http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611441 these a look through
One more release for today. Topic subject says it all.
Take a look at readme.txt and terms of usage.
P.S. don't install it on stock roms. It won't work. You've been warned
thanks alot buddy. highly appreciated..
after long time of intense "motivation" by me.. sorry for nagging so much...
enjoy guys and girls

No, I don't have it. Only in 90x90.
This is awesome. I'm SO glad you're still developing stuff for COM2 as well as COM3. Do you think it's possible to bring the movable shortcut feature from COM3 to COM2? It's like the one thing I really long of other than threaded email, haha.
Very nice piece of work! BTW I really like you background your using. Would you mind uploading it?

I tried last night but only got a hardresset. I have 29022 cooked with GhostX 7.0.3 OSkitchen, then I installed NewSDKCerts.cab and do a softresset (OK) then copy shell32.exe from WM6.5.3 folder to windows folder of my HD2, then copy the .cpr files and did a softresset, but the device did not pass of second splash screen. Does it means I have WM6.5.5? Thanks in advance! and thanks for all the work you share!!!

Take a look at your kitchen files, and see if he has a bold font fix. It he does, then remove that, and use ultrashot fix for bold fonts...
looks great.....

Here is my cpr mod to change the layout to 4 grid (7 in landscape).

thanks for the advice ai6, i have unchecked the keyboard font fix with the gwes.exe, then added to the kitchen the utdrv from this link (importing the cab) and i have no bold problem in the keyboard so i understand is working ok.
Then try again the Square Start Menu 6.5.3, but again didnt pass the second splash I have 29022 ... am I missing some thing else? thanks in advance

No I cannot get it work I have cooked GhostX rom (29022) without the fix by gwes.es so get the bold issue in keyboard (and dialpad talk button), then I installed utdrv.cab (thx ultrashot for the fix!) and the bold issue is solved, then try again the Square Start Menu 6.5.3, but again didnt pass the second splash
I will keep trying

Yeah, the problem is the same for me... Don't know what is incompatible
Would it be ok for me to use the utdrv.cab in my future oskitchen releases? It looks much more stable than the gwes fix!
