Hi,
I've done research on the forum here and found that to unlock the full 576 RAM in HD2 you need two things from the TMOUS ROM. The Radio and nk.exe. I've managed to download the appropriate Radio to unlock the memory but cannot for the life of me understand how to get the nk.exe.
I am using osKitchen Kitchen v1.25 to cook my roms. It uses the following structure under the Sources folder:
EXT
MSXIPKernel
NK
OEM
Other
ROM
SYS
Replacing the NK folder in the TMOUK kitchen from the TMOUS ROM simply does not work the resultant ROM does not boot and just hangs the device.
Could one of our chefs please explain how to port the nk.exe from the US build to unlock the memory in the T-Mobile UK ROM 1.72.
Using the following 576-enabled Radio
RUU_Leo_Radio_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2
Many thanks in advance

For the 576MB patch you need only to replace these folders from an 2.07 or 2.02 Stock-Rom:
Rom\XIP\OEMXIPKernel\nk.exe
OEM\OEMDrivers
OEM\OEMDriversHigh
Then you need to replace again with this folder
OEM\OEMDrivers\ddi.dll
with an older Base than 2.07/2.02 (1.72 in your case is recommended)

Hi, I'm a newbie for ROM cooking, experienced cookers, please advise.
I'm using HD2/Leo phone, I learned how to use HSPL, flash a cooked ROM, so I'm start thinking of cooking the ROM my own, and what all I need is retain original 1.66 707.1 Asia WWE version of stock ROM, but only to enable 576MB RAM.
I found a kitchen, oskitchen zero 1.31, use the GUI and extracted the stock ROM, and stop here, because I don't know how to cook the ROM...
Experienced cookers, please advise, thanks in advance!!!
patensas posted like 2 posts up from yours which files you need to replace.
which means that i just copy all the folder need, then paste inside the osKitchen Zero folder, and finally click "Start building button" to cook my ROM...?
I also want to know why ddi.dll need to be remain old version?
OEM\OEMDrivers\ddi.dll
hello fellow chefs
i am trying to make a verry smooth rom in dutch for soem friends of mine
it is working out quite well but i want to enable the 576 ram tweak
in patensas his post he says i need to change things from a tmous rom
if i use the tmous 2.13.531.1 as base rom do i still need to change those folders?
thanks in advance
sorry to ask but coul some one upload the files to make the 576 mb tweak?
i have 2.13 tmous as base in the kitchen and it would save me a download and dump
thanks in advance
All you need is in the 2.13 TMOUS.

i installed Leo_RADIO_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08 on the phone but no 576 mb tweak:S
Using 2.13 base you should have 576 anyway.
What did you change?

to be honest i have no idea why it aint working
when you got the settings tab and scroll down to device info
there you choose hardware info it should also say 576?
the thing i did is dump the tmous 2.13 rom with ervius
then i took out the 0409 folder in oem and replaced it with the the one i use for blackstone(maybe the fault is here) then i replaced the ext packages with the ones i use i blackstone kitchen(compared wich are unnesacary and left those out) and then recooked the rom
i also decided today that i am gonna rebuild the entire kitchen from scratch without copy pasting the 0409 folder in oem and set everything up from there and remake the initflash.dat the way i want it
i havent changed the ddi.dll so that might be the trick why it aitn working
on side note:
wish i whasnt in the middle of moving and had the actual device for a few days
that would definetly make things easier for me
ps: what do you think is the best base to use to build the kitchen on with ervius kitchen
tmous 3.14? it would sound logical that newer is better although there are differences between the american and european leo's
Hi all !
I'm trying to cook a personal custom rom I just want to change the build from 6.5 to 6.5.X of the official htc 3.14 italian rom. I would also like to enable the 576 mb of ram. I have already installed on the phone the 2.15 radio, what files I need to change inside the kitchen ( I use oskitchen ) ? I have a t-mobile.uk hd2 ( I have bought it from england.
so I think that it's the european version )

Take the nk.exe(from oemxipkernel) from 2.13 tmous.I think also the nk.exe from 3.14 tmous should be ok but I havent try it.
Could someone just post an attachment with the modules needed to enable the extra RAM? I'm sure it would make it easier for everyone. I'd do it, but I don't have an hd2.

The way that the European Leo device gets the 576 ram enabled is the following:
Replace the nk.exe with the nk.exe from TMOUS rom (in Sources\Devices\HTC Leo\Profiles\default\OEMXIPKernel folder for oskitchen, or \ROM\LEO\build number\OEMXIPKERNEL for ervius kitchen).
I attach the 2.13 tmous and 3.14 tmous nk.exe modules.Both do the trick or enable the 576 ram (for those who believe it).
Personally in my Leo I didnt see any difference with the 576 ram enabled.

no
it's not possible either get used to flashing
or wait till HTC give you something you want.
It is impossible to cook a rom that is identical to the stock rom with the changes that increase the ram? I think not.
no flash, no extra memory.

Grats, but also missed the point.
If your goal is to keep ur ROM as stock as possible, you can DIY these steps:
1. dump a stock 1.66 nbh, preferably using EVK (Vistang also did a complete dump but may miss out some 0409 language files)
2. dump a Test 2.02 nbh.
3. dump a Test 2.01 nbh.
4. Use dumped 1.66 as base kitchen.
5. copy 2.02's OEM\OEMDrivers and OEM\OEMDriversHigh to replace the 1.66's.
6. Before you did (4), copy ddi.dll from 1.66 at some other folder, then later replace 2.02's by copying it back at OEM\OEMDrivers.
7. do the same replacement for ROM\OEMKernel\MSM_TIME.DLL file, but from 2.01's.
8. recook with 2.02's radio.nb you'll get a as-stock 1.66-as-possible ROM with 576MB RAM.
To save all the troubles, just grab the kitchen at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624672 They are quite raw and not modified.

I would also be very interested if someone could cook a stock 1.66 with 576 RAM and make that available for a simple download and flash. Has this been made available by someone, and I am just missing it? Thanks in advance for any help in developing or making this rom available.
bump. I am not a cooker. only am eater.
Why do you not just have a look into the ROM-section?? There ar lots of ROMs that are close to Stock but with the full amount of RAM enabled. I can suggest e.g. Dutty's ROMs. I mean, what should be the advantage of the stock ROM? Maybe the included ringtones, wallpapers, or BING?

try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621070 is the stock 1.66 without any unnecesary stuff from ms and with 576 ram. i have it and it is superb, runs smooth and stady.
So, how can one build a rom that will work both on a T-Mobile HD2 and on the WWE HD2?
Should I try to work with the WWE stock roms and hope it will work with the T-MO or is there any specifics needs to be done?

nice to point him in a ready to use kitchen but i think its handy if you type out what you have done to make it that way so other people can do it themselves as i think it are only a few files and its easier to change a few files then customize a entire kitchen to youre own liking
I take the OEMXIPKernel and OEMDrivers packages from a 2.1x ROM and use them as part of my ROM's base to make it 1024mb compatible. You could use the whole 2.1x OEM dir, but I find it unstable myself.

Basically, you work on a WWE rom as the base but you take OEMXIPKernel and OEMDrivers from a T-Mo rom and install them instead of the WWE ones?

The wording here can be a bit confusing - TMOUS ROMs are WWE anyway (2.13 being the last) but the latest 1024mb ROM is 2.14, which is CHS language.
You could use any base you like and just include the OEMXIP and OEMDrivers from a 2.1x ROM to make it fully compatible. I use a WWE 1.72 base (because I find it the most stable) and the OEMDrivers and OEMXIP from 2.14 (because it's the latest available). I then had to replace several bluetooth dll's and mui's in the OEMDrivers as they are in CHS and I want WWE - I just copied them over from the 1.72 WWE OEMDrivers package. If you used the 2.13 OEMDrivers they would already be WWE...
I also have the 2.10 touch.dll and touchgl.dll files copied to my OEMDrivers as these have better touch response.
The easiest way would be to just use the 2.13 base (it's 1024mb HD2 compatible and it's already WWE) and use x.xx.50.x series radios...
Hey, there, guys...
It's me, little old Bruno, the Iolite and Mega Chef...
I just bought a Leo and I'm cooking for it, but the most advanced base I can have is a 1.80 based Kitchen...
If I have any other than that, for some stupid reason, I can't boot after the RUNCC reboots my device...
It hangs at the welcomehead screen with the light a little dimmed IF I HAVE THE SD CARD INSERTED...
Otherwise it will boot fine...
Obviously I have read many threads and used search, but it appears no one else is having this issue... Only the FM Radio and Wireless issues that come from using the 2.14 / 3.04 Drivers bundle.
I know this is a driver issue and I was wondering if you have got a working 2.14 or 3.04 based kitchen that I can have so I can start my cooking...
On a quick note:
I am using the 3.04 EXT Packages + 3.04 OEMDrivers, OEMDriversHigh, OEMMisc folders + 2.14 nk.exe only
Best regards,

Hello.
Download that kitchen as base and add the 3.04 OEMDrivers, OEMDriversHigh, OEMMisc folders as is it.

For the fm radio the solution is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618787
For the MAC the solution is to replace the bcmsddhd.dll from 2.14 driver folder.

That's it. If you have problem's after that then look at your EXT package's or post here.

And my custom EXT package works both on Iolite and Mega, so that's not it...

Might be notification enhancment. Did you recmod it?
Not sure what kitchen you are using but I would dump the ship ROM in to your kitchen first Recmod NTConfig.dll then try to rebuild the ROM. When successful replace SYS and try again.
I'm personally using 2.14 as a base with EXT from 3.04. Some people have reported problems with the 3.04 base. You can get it to work but as mentioned you have to change out some drivers etc.
What device are the kitchen for ?
Ext packs 3.04 are made for HD2 WVGA basically
I had problem with 3.04 OEMs with "normal" HD2 but did not spend time to investigate further or attempted to fix it, perhaps some of you may help.
Here are a few as I remembered...
The WiFi driver broke the MAC address (which file is it?)
The RAM/device storage size became way smaller.
However, most fo the EXTs are working except very few...

if you use Leo S 3.04, you need to replace nk.exe from earlier rom, say 2.14. I had this prob where all the ram and storage is reduced, someone here pointed it out to me.

Hello guys,
I was building a rom for HD2 using 3.14 WWE base and 23699 WM build. I was having the problem with very low program memory - about 20 mb free. I searched the forum and what i found is to change the nk.exe with TMOUS one. I did and now the rom is stuck at the welcome screen. Then in oskitchen, i changed the rom from 3.14 WWE to tmous 3.14 and got the same problem.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Use nk.exe for your device. If your device is not tmous device, then dont use nk.exe for tmous.
Be sure to have Radio from 2.08.xx,old radios doesnt works with TMOUS nk.exe,my suggestion is to use new radio from WWE 3.14 the 2.15.xxx.

Is there a good set of FAQ's for cooking for the Leo? I don't own one, but all I ever read about are issues with getting the correct hard spl, radio, and builds. A link would be good for this thread, but even better would just be an FAQ thread on how to cook for the Leo properly.
In my honest opinion ,cooking for LEO is more simple then other old devices,steps are easy,here what i do for my rom:
_Dump newest shipped rom,in my case i have 3.14 Italian.
_Replace Nk.exe from TMOUS
_Change WM build ,in this case i have 23150
_Apply wm 6.5.x fixes
_Load my personal customizations
_ Be sure to have proper Radio for 576 mb enabled
Thats all.
When i cooked for Kaiser the list was double and more ,more ,more reg tweaks,lol

Hi,
I use oskitchen with leo 3.14 ROM as my base. If I use 1.66 ROM I have about 180mb free. If I use 3.14 as the base rom I only have about 50mb free. Basic rom built no addons.
Does any body know why this is eating up so much internal memory?
Solution
Fixed issue. I built a rom using RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2 and got 51mb free space. I then downloaded RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.13.531.1 and then used the nk.exe from this rom.
I rebuilt the exact same rom again but with the new nk.exe and got 171.42 free storage and 294.17 free program space.
Also with using this nk.exe from a tmous rom is this now compatable with users with a tmous device if they use the correct radio?

if you are using tmous 3.14.531.1 as base for your rom, make sure you use hspl2.08.
otherwise (with hspl3.03) you will face this memory issues.
if you are using a european rom as base, you can use hspl2.08 (memory issues) or 3.03.
but only with hspl2.08 and tmous 3.14.531.1 base you will have 576mb ram enabled.

Hi,
Im using Euro ROM as base, sorry should have mentioned that. I am also using HSLP 2.08 with radio 2.15, still only getting 51mb free. Bit random. My kitchen is in my sig below. If you wouldn't mind downlaoding a copy and having a look it would be much appreciated.
I think I am missing something obvious! As far as I can remember hslp 3 does not enable 576mb ram. Only 2.08 does.

if you want to use hspl2.08 (for android) you better use tmous base.
i can imagine that you also face memory issues this way around.
with "base" i mean not only oem but also rom (xip).
i also suggest you should download my osbuilder template kitchen for hd2 to have a look.
