Kovsky Kitchen - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

This the WM6.1 Xperia ROM Kitchen by originally developed by jcespi2005 and jugglerlkr. I have adapted it to work with the Xperia! Please search XDA for the full tutorial which is pretty much the same for other phones.
http://rapidshare.com/files/166098346/KovskyKitchen.rar.html
Can someone please upload this to a premium or FTP account please? This link has a 10 download limit.
Note: XP SP2 or Vista with MS .NET Framework required to use it.
Remember to backup your phone and use HardSPL before you flash ANY rom!!
Download the BaseRom you wish to use here on XDA and extract your RUU_signed.nbh. Download the kitchen and read the included instructions to install and start cooking!
Unrar Kovsky kitchen to the root of c: so you have c:\kovskykitchen
The Kovsky ROM Kitchen has been created using the tools and knowledge of many people (not limited to those who are mentioned below)
bepe
dark simpson
itsme
jcespi2005
jugglerlkr

Enjoy & go cook!

YES, please - I support

I was gonna release mine, but you can release yours
just give credits to the makers.
The kitchen is a collaboration of many developers/chefs at xda
cheers

I started this thread because I could not see one for an Xperia rom kitchen.
I have modified a Raphael Kitchen so it will cook X1 roms. Is anyone interested? If so, I think I will have to get someone's permission to release it.
Any ideas / does anyone want the kitchen?

Yeah, I'd be interested in learning how to cook ROMS. How hard is it to learn how to do it? I've been a developer for many years so have a good level of technical skill.
Cheers

Pretty much the same except I have removed everything that is Raphael and replaced with X1. There is also some config updates in Dark Simpson's tool so it signs the rom properly.

Cheers itje, I will release it this weekend with credits. Everyone else, standby - just need to test it a bit more.
Anyone hoping to use the kitchen should look for the tutorials for using it as there is no point in me writing another one when there are already plenty of good ones at XDA.

Mirror here. Enjoy Zipped for better compatibility

change pagepool size
how do we change the pagepool size and rom date?
thanks in advance.

required to use HardSPL prior per any uprom or up radio ?

Hi,
Please could someone do a guide/tutorial for this kitchen.
I am aware that there is a guide for the Kaiser, but is this really the same?
It would be nice if there was a step by step and 'what you need' list so that people can start dumping/cooking roms for themselves.
If there already is a guide/tutorial then I apologise, could someone please link?
Thanks,
Phil Rich

I agree, since there aren't many cooked rom's available at the moment for the X1

I'm having a huge problem with this kitchen.. well all kitchens. IMGFSFROMDUMP keeps crashing. All i do is extract a stock rom and it fails everytime. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Question
Is there any other mirror for this kitchen? The current mirror keeps failing me at 10%.
I'm not sure why though.

is it possible to re-up the ZIP please? because it is offline... thanks in advance!!

File isn't available anymore. Any other links?

someone please upload kovskykitchen.zip i wanted to backup my rom...

[KITCHEN]TOUCH HD ROM Kitchen (From JugglerLKR and JCEspi2005)

From the creators of Kaiser ROM Kitchen, Diamond ROM Kitchen, Raphael ROM Kitchen comes new blockbuster:
Touch HD ROM Kitchen with exclusive large ROM file support!
Like in the Kaiser and Raphael forums, this is a team work with JCEspi2005.
First of all, give thanks to all ppl that contribute to this kitchen, and all of you that help to make better with your feedback and suggestions...
This is a adaptation from KaiserKitchen to Diamond, Raphael and now to BlackStone. So don't wait an spectacular GUI, is as simple as the first version, a script with the tools needed in a folder. This way we can upgrade individual tool when needed...
This is the v0.7 (first version for BlackStone). I have adapted the script in a single file starting with the Alex's modification over the original batch files from version v0.3 for Kaiser. (many thanks Alex's for his works over the original script...)
Links to the Kitchen:
http://rapidshare.com/files/165037755/BlackStoneKitchen_v07.rar
Read the TXT file inside the RAR to get the pass.
ADVICE: HardSPL for BlackStone needed to flash any non-official ROM, so take care of this
Waiting your feedback, guys.... many thanks all...
Cheers.
Is there any speculation at this point whether 850/1900 HSDPA (UMTS) can be enabled on the HD?
my kitchen is ok..

Since the Surface Kitchen roms seem to be loadable only with HardSPL, isn't it normal for your cooked rom not to load considering there is no HardSPL for the Blackstone yet?
I'm gonna try M-Amine's kitchen for Polaris. Let's see how far we get with the WM 6 emulator before bricking my Blackstone, lol.
LOL... yes U use a kitchen, and you stay on 0%
but u use HARD SPL?

Help creating a WM 6.5 ROM

Hi All,
I'm trying to cook my first ROM and would like it to be on WM 6.5
I tried the Blackstone kitchen posted here but unfortunately all the WM6.5 ROMs are not extractable - I tried ALL of them.
Would any of the ROM cookers be kind enough to make his ROM extractable by the kitchen or perhaps point me to a tutorial explaining how to create a WM6.5 ROM for the Touch HD (i.e. import from a ROM cooked for another device).
I did search the forum before asking but couldn't find anything.
Your help is much appreciated and thanks for your help in advance.
I guess starting with a WM6.5 rom isn't that clever, as you must know a lot of xip porting. I haven't tried it myself, but as far as I know there were also some issues with the drivers.
Have you already tried davideuck's version? "Rom-source" sounds good, doesn't it?

I've always wondered what the [ROM-SOURCE] means but now I noticed that davideuck has included the SYS and XIP. Although I still have no idea what these are, it's food for thought and I'll do some digging to get more information.
In the meantime, if anyone can help with any information, it will be much appreciated.
I appreciate your reply john, thanks very much.

Some information is given here:
ivanmmj said:
Q: What is the XIP?
A: It's the kernel of the ROM.
Q: What is the SYS folder?
A: It's where all the new apps included in each Windows Mobile release are stored. PM me asking me where to find them.

My problem, as I said in the first post, is that all the WM6.5 ROMs are not extractable - I tried ALL of them.
I am now playing with ROM/Kitchen posted in this thread - exactly what I need.
I have already cooked a ROM using the thread above and will be adding my apps and registry tweaks possibly this weekend when I have some spare time.
Thanks for your help John.

Rom Development bare OS 6.5 and TF

I would like to build my own bare 6.5 windows OS with TF. How can I get started? Where to begin, what ROMS do I need. What kitchen software should I use..etc. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=560519
Good place to start.
need additional info..
I have read that post previoulsy. My confusion lies if my device came with OS 6.1 with TF and what to update to new 6.5 with TF. I just down want the fluff that are included in the other ROMS (sorry if I insult your build of the roms) I have already dumped the raw files and have the factory ROM that I was able to find here.

Manila 2.5 Kitchen

Hi all, Does anyone know of a kitchen for the tp that has Manila 2.5 included in it (or is anyone kind enough to share theirs?). I know chefs don't like sharing their kitchens cos then others take credit for the ROMs but this is ONLY for my personal ROMs for my tp - i won't be uploading any as i think there are many talented chefs already for our device.
I have download the 23518 kitchen from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580429
and then downloaded the Manila 2.5 files from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4956649#2
And added them to the kitchen following the instructions exactly. The ROM boots (strangely there is no settings icon in the start menu????) but Titanium is loaded by default. I try enabling Manila and it just gets stuck on 'tap here to launch HTC sense' then when i tap it says 'launching HTC sense' then back to 'tap here etc etc'?
Basically i want to build a ROM for myself like EnergyROMs (which is what i use normally) but would like to remove some stuff i don't use.
Thanks in advance
can't answer your exact question here..but you are in the wrong forum mate - ask away in the TP2 forums

hi doomboyu
one of the problems is the "imgfs_raw_data.bin" we need to find a way to convert it to "OS.NB.Payload" this will not be easy, and also the Hima XIP start address is not supported by "platformrebuilder" or "implantxip" it's nice to be able to use VK layout and the ease of makeing packages i'v been trying to use it on 6.1 builds but it's not working for 6.1 build's
But it did work on BlueAngel 6.5 builds
regards
swampy395
Swampy
thanks for replying me. i want to ask you which kitchen you use for cooking 6.5.3 builds for himalaya and do you intend to post tutorial for noobs like me
osKichen should work. I didn't dumped my rom in ervius, I built it manually (yea hard manual work).
Xip porting is ON THE WAY )
As blueangel history have been written some time ago, as we are writing Himalaya history right now, right here.
