Guest PaSSoA Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yup, took out alot of apps I personally don't use, including samsung widget, built the Rom and it's at about 115MB. Just the moment of truth left... the flashing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kaer Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Can't find Pkgtool. Gone through all unzipped folders many times. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Text Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 The process! - Download P535 kitchen linked above - Download DXHJ1 update (for example) and add .bin to filename - Run NB0_Kitchen.exe, select BIN file, and NB0 will be extracted - Click button to create IMGFS, this will give you your dump directory - Use Pkgtool to change dump to packages - Modify as desired - Use BuildOS to change packages back to dump - Use the Build NB0 button to build your NB0 and BIN files - Flash BIN using PDA button in GrandPrix In a nutshell, simple as that! :lol: P I've downloaded the asus kitchen from Catmat's link but i don't find pkgtool,only packimg.exe...where is it?

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hmmm, wonder where I got it from then? Google it... :lol: Just built a ROM... IN: - .net CF3.5 - Batti - AppToDate - Remote Desktop OUT: - .net CF 2.0 - Some un-used big files - Shozu - Windows Update - Some sample music files - Welcome Center UPDATED: - UPX'd the stupidly large tclock.exe - UPX'd the MS Office executables (PPT is particularly bad) Will be interesting to compare free space with someone on a base HJ1? Need to know how to change the version string (e.g. from DXHJ1 to PAUL1 or something)... P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Stats after boot (no CSC): Storage: Total 95.06MB, In Use 29.52 MB, Free 65.54 MB Program: Total 96.70MB, In Use 36.25 MB, Free 60.45 Hmmm, these numbers don't really sound any higher, can someone on base HJ1 verify?

Guest PaSSoA Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 How are you flashing it? I've got my own cooked rom.bin, so in grandprix this will go under PDA, how bout the files for loader and phone? Without CSC, what are the limitations? And for those looking for pkgtool, here's the file.PKGTool.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 With the blank CSC, Streaming Player is broken, not sure about anything else...? I do wonder if we're really getting back the space we're 'freeing' now... P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PaSSoA Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 First try... same problem as you Paul, was stuck at the Samsung bootloader. Reflashed with normal updater and everything's fine again. *whew* Did you find out the cause? Was it the rebuilding or maybe some apps I took out?

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I was using the packaging tools from Scoter's Kitchen and it seemed to not like it for some reason! Switching to BuildOS seemed to fix it. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
