[SOLVED]How to cook end key replacement - Windows Mobile

Hello to all.
I'm wondering if you can help me to cook end key replacement by jochos.
Thanks a lot

Which kind of help do you need?
Just grab the cab and convert it in EXT then cook it after the stock Htc endkey.
EDIT: LongEndPress key stock can be deselected from your kitchen.

I've done it but with no success.
I've deselected the stock one but nothing happens.
While installing it i have to select from two skins and then some other questions that i don't remember exactly.How can i choose the skin?

Did you cook in the skins? (it's necessary) If I remember me correctly; the default place of the skins (zip file) is "\Program Files\EndKeySkins\
the other files (.exe and .mcr) are located into \Windows.
Don't forget to build in all the needed Reg-Keys.
Ps; if you will build it in; you need to also to build in one theme into \Windows together with his Reg_key's. Normally the setup of the cab will do this. but now you need to build it in manually.

Do i have to add something special in my reg file?(i have it attached).
How can i choose one skin by default?

Thanks for the [Solved] indication

So Kurt, I see what you did with your package and yes, it does work so that Quick Endkey is up and running at boot up. The only problem is that with your package and even my own when I mimic yours is that when I tap the top left corner of the screen to change the theme I get these errors for every .brn file that you have already unzipped in your 0409 files.
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The only that does not give this error is the "wifi" option. I'm assuming it's because the wifi.brn file is not already unzipped with the rest.
It sort of seems like the problem is that it's not able to overwrite those files. Or that it thinks it cannot. Even though I get an error for every .brn file it's trying to use, the theme will change correctly.
Any thoughts on how to fix these error messages?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Okay, I will take a look on it tomorrow.
But some questions;
1) did you change anything on the zip file?
2) are the zip file present?

Edit; on the first look I don't see directly the problem.

Hello.
Is there something special that i have to do in order to cook it in different languages except by changing the file "strings"?
Thanks a lot

just make a folder from your language (ex 0413 = NLD, don't know how it is for Greek) and set the zip files for that language, also the needed .brn files and put the translated strings file also in these folder.
Ow, just forget to mention, the strings file need to be saved as Unicode (probably you know that.)

Hi,
Make sure you are installing the cab to the Device, not Storage Card.

Thx for answer.
Since I have Elfin with appr. 160MB free storage on device I install almost all progz to device, not to Storage.
Do you have any other idea?
FYI: I use PdaViet latest cooked WM6.1 ROM from Xperia.

There's something disagreeing with the application then. Since the only thing I implemented was the graphic files I can't really help you with that, sorry. I just included the cab for convenience.
Try finding another download for the app, and then once you get it installed just replace the files with the one in the zip.
BTW do you actually have a previous skin installed? If so try removing that first.
Sorry I can't be more help
Try searching in your windows folder for the file name. I'm using dcd rom, and it has SpbCalc_L.gif instead of .png. I just renamed it and it works fine. It is on the ROM, so you may need something like Resco Explorer to overright it.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for your help with this issue. I didn't realise the app was included in some ROMs.
If people could post what ROMs and/or devices installation was successful on it would be great.

Hi steb0ne
Indeed I have SpbCalc_L.gif and SpbCalc_P.gif already but... even Totalcommander is not able to rename them... tried to change the Read Only attribute but failed... it says these files are on ROM.
Do not know what to do.
Hi oseven!
I am cooking a ROM with blue theme. I have made a blue Diamond Keyboard skin.
Now I want a blue Diamond calc skin. I edited you png files but I don't know why the calculator doesn't work properly with the edited files. Am I missing something?
Thank you.
Regards,
Jaime.
hi,
is it possible to use this skin for the standard calculator? To rename the files and copy it to the windows folder?
Or does the cab file overrites the original calculator?
very nice

The images will be applied to the original calculator. Just follow the install instructions and then open the calculator as normal.

Here you go. The photo editor you used must have changed the colours of the multi-coloured image on the right, so I've changed them back to what they should be. Should work now (they do on my Elf)

Game tab for our Diamond!

Could someone create a cab with a game tab for Diamond.

A game tab would be nice or perhaps just a way to link to your games folder via one of the application shortcuts.
I tried creating one to the Games folder and also to a shortcut to the Games folder but neither work.
Hi ..
Here you will find a shortcut to the Games folder ..

Hello @all!!
The shourtcut to the games folder is realy nice!
But at time it only works for the WWE Roms no other language is supported.......
I have tried it on the 1.93 german rom... don´t work!
I have renamed the Spiele folder in (C:/windows/startmenü/spiele) to games but even doesn´t work (Think because the path name is different in GER and WWE Roms..)!
Can somebody make a version for the german rom??
If you tell me what the path names are I will do it.
I need this path as it is in the german rom
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games
I also need this path, as it is in the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
Surur
Why not a Start-> "Programs" Link?

Hey Surur,
Thanks for making a Dutch version but i can't get it to work unfortunatly
The 3rd slot in Programs tab stays empty =(
maybe i need to look at the reg. and see what i come up with ..
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher
This path seems the same but there was no space between ProgramLaun AND cher but
maybe thats something the forum does i dunno..
Hope this helps =)

PS Error msg says that: The file canot be opened, it is not signed or one of its components is missing, it then asks to reinstall the cab.

Its probably related to the apostrophe in Programma's . Can you edit the _Gamesfolder.lnk file in \windows and add quotation marks around "#\Windows\Startmenu\Programma's\Spelletjes\?shellres.dll,-8229" ?
btw, the forum is inserting spaces, so watch out for that.
Surur
Hi there, i can't find such a file in windows =(
I only found \Windows\gamesico.lnk

Are you sure? Remember it starts with an underscore _Gamesfolder.lnk .
If its really not there that would also explain your problem.
Surur
Hey there,
i did find the _Gamefolder.lnk and tried to edit it. It was originaly saying:
92#"\Windows\_folderview.exe" \Windows\Startmenu\Programma's\Spelletjes\?shell res.dll,-8229
so to what do i edit this ....
Putting quotation marks between the seccond "/Windows and -8229"
doesn't make the cab work either..
Caved
Ive done some testing, and WM does not have a problem with the apostrophe.
Can you give me the path to
Windows\Startmenu\Programma's\Spelletjes
and make sure its exactly right?

need help on GouBi Chinese Input (v.2.1.2) - A very handy Chinese Input

Hi all,
I found a very handy Chinese Input - GouBi Chinese Input v.2.1.2.
However, it just said "cannot be installed" when ran the cab file in my i908 ( with Traditional Chinese ROM).
Then, I found that it is caused by the Simplified Chinese characters inside the cab file.
I tried to re-cab it and it can be installed!
But after soft reset, the input panel just show the default MS keyboard, instead of GouBi.
Is there any expert can help me to re-cab the file so we can share it with all the Traditional Chinese ROM users?
Please find the original cab file for re-cabbing.
Million Thanks~~ ^^

Questions & Problems:
1. How do I change the start menu to the grid type? (solved)
2. What file do I edit to add information on this page? (see screenshot "screen02")
3. How do I organize my applications so they are in folders? Like I want the "google mobile app" in the "internet" folder. (solved)
4. When I first boot my device the first screen I see is a black screen with the words "smart mobility" across the middle of the screen, How do I edit that text? Because when I first flashed it the text before was "udk Diamond" or something on them lines. (see screen03, second row, second image) (solved)
5. Where is the image located to change the background image. i have changed the touchflo background but cannot find the actual background image, can anyone help? (see screen03, 1st row, second image) (solved)
P.S If anyone else wants to add questions/problems reply to this thread and I will add it to the list.
Many Thanks, James.

If you want and themes for Manila this thread might help..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425974

I don't know why you would want my ROM, It will probably have loads of bugs but if you wish to flash your device with my ROM you may do.
HERE is a earlier release of my ROM. This is my first ROM, The 1 in my screenshots is the same ROM with just some of the images changed and a few tweaks/changes here and there.
USE AT OWN RISK!

[TOOL][29/Nov/10]Provxml<-->Reg Converter|XrMeLg v1.2.1.0[ONLINE]

XrMeLg is a tool to convert provxml files to reg files and reverse:
{
"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"
}
Prerequisites:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 (Windows Vista / Windows 7 have it pre-installed)
Usage:
Really simple to use as a GUI:
Code:
Click the button [...] - Select file to convert - Click the relevant button [-->%new_file_type%] - Done!
It also works without even launching it. Just drag n' drop a file on the XrMeLg.exe and have it converted!
<=>
In cli you can have a file converted by typing :
Code:
XrMeLg.exe %file%
Command line usage to convert all provxml files at a given path to reg files:
Code:
XrMeLg.exe r:%path_to_look_for_provxml_files%
The application automatically does a backup of the processed file(s) inside a folder named "Files" in the directory where it is located.
Change Log:
16/Nov/10 - Initial release
16/Nov/10 - v.1.1.0.0
Added drag n' drop support (Just drag n' drop a file on the EXE and have it converted)
Removed unnecessary creation of *_mui_sz.reg
19/Nov/10 - v.1.2.0.0
Fixed reg-->provxml bug regarding registry key removal
29/Nov/10 - v.1.2.1.0
Fixed provxml --> reg bug (the reg file was not created in some cases)
If you test it please report any suggestions or any bugs found
Regards!
Thanks for sharing, this is really a helpful app for chefs
Subscribed.
Great Tools, Thank you for sharing.
hey,
very nice tool, thx for sharing.
Now the BUT part or maybe just a hint..
I have converted regkeys to provxml where some registry keys should be removed. But your converter wont translate it to provxml. The reg entries will be just skipped.
Example: [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\Kamera.lnk]
Usually this would remove the key, but the converter skipps this part.
greetz,
greg
Thanks guys for testing this.
I made a typo in the string that the application searches and instead of
[-HKEY_...
I had
-[HKEY_...
Thank you Greg for noticing it
v.1.2.0.0 attached at 1st post is a revised version of the app to fix this issue.
Regards!
Thanks for the update!
Haven't tried yet, but I cook a lot so it will be useful later for sure
thanx for the update. Now this is working great!
Ye typos, the first place i take a look on if something goes wrong with my stuff
Hey,
When I use your tool in command line, it does not work...
I type XrMeLg.exe :rC:/BlaBlaBla/someFolder/
And this does not work...

Hi,
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
The switch is r: NOT :r.
I will correct the 1st post.
So if you type:
Code:
XrMeLg.exe r:C:\BlaBlaBla\someFolder
it will work but don't expect any console output!
Just check the Files folder and you should find the reg files there.
Regards!
Thanks for sharing this tool

I'm glad to give something back (even this small).
I've found a little bug regarding provxml --> reg usage, so there is an updated version @ 1st post.
Regards!
Thanks, I will try this.
Great work, as usual from you! I don't think I would have learned to cook roms without your kitchen either!
I think I was using CeRegEditor to do the conversions before, but this looks way more convenient to use. You may want to compare.
Very useful tool, thanks for sharing!
Hi,
Many thanks for the soft, using it all evening to prepare a new xda_uc and working nicely and simply.
Bravo Kokota!
Thank you Kokotas

Hi,
for some reasons I often need to convert a bulk of REG-files to PROVXML-files. Hence my question: Can you provide a version of your tool that offers a related command line parameter, ex. '"p" instead of "r"?
