How-To build ur own OEM Package - help!!

Hi, I am starting to get a bit more ambitious and decided i would like to put together my own collection of apps to go in bepe's ROM kitchen. I have a collection of about 30 .cabs that I want to have as part of my ROM.
I went to the wiki, and here are the instructions:
Code:
How-To build ur own OEM Package:
An OEM Package is just a simple folder containing files and registry settings for the ROM
First of all you'll need a GUID number for your Package.
Go to http://www.famkruithof.net/uuid/uuidgen to get one.
In my case:
283b9db7-cb03-4c1b-820e-ca49b2c3b5db
Necessary steps:
1. Create a new folder:
Dev/OEM/(Your package name)/
2. Create a empty text file:
Dev/OEM/(Your package name)/283b9db7-cb03-4c1b-820e-ca49b2c3b5db.dsm
(CreateOS.exe will finish this file for you)
If needed:
# Create an UNICODE text file:
Dev/OEM/(Your package name)/283b9db7-cb03-4c1b-820e-ca49b2c3b5db.rgu
This file could be used to add registry entries to the ROM
First line is:
REGEDIT4
...
and there MUST be a empty line at the end!!
# Create an UNICODE text file:
Dev/OEM/(Your package name)/initflashfiles.txt
This file could be used to create folders or copy files on the ROM.
Example: Open Dev/LOC/initflashfiles.dat using a text editor
So from the directory with BuildOS in it, I created a folder Dev, then OEM.
Now how do I integrate my cabs into the rom? (Everything before was so I don't get flamed for not reading the wiki because I did!)
Thanks,

How-To build your own OEM Package:
An OEM Package is just a simple folder containing files and registry settings for the ROM
First of all you'll need a GUID number for your Package. Go to http://www.famkruithof.net/uuid/uuidgen to get one. For example: 283b9db7-cb03-4c1b-820e-ca49b2c3b5db
Necessary steps:
1. Create a new folder: Dev/Helmi_UNI_WM6_Kitchen_R0/OEM/Your package name/
2. Create a empty text file: Dev/Helmi_UNI_WM6_Kitchen_R0/OEM/Your package name/283b9db7-cb03-4c1b-820e-ca49b2c3b5db.dsm (?CreateOS.exe will finish this file for you)
3.
(Optional) Create an UNICODE text file: Dev/Helmi_UNI_WM6_Kitchen_R0/OEM/Your package name/283b9db7-cb03-4c1b-820e-ca49b2c3b5db.rgu
This file could be used to add registry entries to the ROM First line is: REGEDIT4 ... and there MUST be a empty line at the end!!
4.
Create an UNICODE text file: Dev/Helmi_UNI_WM6_Kitchen_R0/OEM/Your package name/initflashfiles.txt
This file could be used to create folders or copy files, shortcut on the ROM. For Example/Ilustration: Open or read Dev/Helmi_UNI_WM6_Kitchen_R0/LOC/initflashfiles.dat using a text editor or any premake initflashfiles.txt at one of the OEM folder.
and there MUST be a empty line at the end of iniflashfiles.txt also!!
Copy all files you need to Dev/Helmi_UNI_WM6_Kitchen_R0/OEM/Your package name/
The next time you build your ROM (as described above), the OEM package will be included in the ROM.

3. Download these trial icon files

4. Download a free tool Paint.net (google...its free for windows).
5. Patience is required only once then onceu r done..u'll remember all on fingertips
- Make two separate folders and copy icon files in one.
- Open the downloaded zip file with winrar and extract the contents to another folder (do not mess around with original zip always make a backup copy)
- In extracted files you will have three folders
data
meta-inf
system
- open system then app u will find htclockscreen.apk ..Extract this file in different place so that u can view it separately.
- when you have extracted htclockscreen.apk (winrar can do it) go to folder htclockscreen.apk>res>drawable-hdpi folder.
6. Now you will see all the icon files used by lockscreen.. And you will easily identify the icons used by me in my lock screen.(screenshots)
7. Now either use your own collection or the demo icons provided by me open each file you want to edit with paint.net and edit the file as per your
requirement and play around with icons as you like.
8. Now u have a new set of icons in drawable-hdpi folder.

Edit SystemUI for Galaxy Grand Duos

Hello everyone in this thread I will show you how to edit your systemUI.apk without using NinjaMorph or apktool.
This is specially for those who have problem working with the above mentioned tools.
Required things:
1. ROM with custom recovery.
2. Custom MOD package like remove dual sim icon or translucent multi window mod for SGG Duos i.e. GT-I9082.
3. Battery Charge at least above 5%...
4. WinRar or 7-Zip.
5. Stock / Original SystemUI.apk
Procedure:
After you have all the required things lets begin....
1. Open the SystemUI.apk using Archive Tools.
2. Locate the directory of the file you wish to mod.
Example:
I wanted to modify toggle switches so the directory for me would be "SystemUI.apk: \res\drawable-hdpi\(All toggle switches)".
Now since I wanted to replace toggle switches so I got stylish toggle switches and renamed them as it is present in my SystemUI.apk.
3. Get the mods or extract the file, modify it and create folders to store modified file.
Example:
I modified toggle switches so to store modified toggles I should create folder and sub directories like:
"system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/(Store toggles here)".
Note:
"SystemUI.apk" is the folder name..
4. After storing your mods now open any of the UI mods for SGG GT-I9082 inside this archive you will find few files such as data, system, boot.img, vrthemes etc..
5. Open vrtheme folder.
6. Inside this you will find another system folder.
7. Open system/app/SystemUI.apk/.
8. In this SystemUI.apk add your "res" which you created earlier with mods.
Note:
In case you don't find SystemUI.apk folder inside the vrtheme archive then drag'n drop the entire SystemUI.apk folder you created into the archive and note that it should be in store only mode do not compress it.
9. Now copy the archive to your sdcard or extsdcard..
10. Do not reset your device in the recovery.
11. Just go to flash zip part and flash the mod file you have created.
And that's all you got your modified SystemUI....
