Rom Cooking

I'm quite the newbie when it comes to ROM cooking, quite lucky to have a P4350 so I can mess around a bit w/o worrying about bricking the phone. I was able to flash the t-mobile dump using this method:
xander803 said:
I'll try to detail out exactly what I did. The rom kitchen was used for every single step. The directions provided with the program are not comprehensive but done well enough that you can figure most of it out.
1). Use the extract tool and choose "dump from bin" and dump the wing os bin posted on the first page. This dumped the contents to a directory in xdump.
2). After this "pkgtool" will run to separate out the sys and oem folders.
3). Move the contents of "xdump" (which should be the sys and oem folders and maybe a couple other files) into the "kitchen" folder.
4). Place the XIP folder and Aserg's os.nb, both of which are found in this thread, into the "ROM" folder. Aserg's os.nb will have to be renamed, check for details in the rom kitchen help file.
5). This is the step where cooks can delete/add stuff but I wouldn't recommend it your first time through.
6). Run "Build" and it should automatically create your new os.nb. We don't need to do any of the conversion afterwards because we can just put this os.nb in place of Aserg's os.nb and use his method to flash.
Please read through the rom kitchen's help manual as well as Aserg's help file for flashing the herald and make sure you understand exactly what you have to do. If you don't have an unbranded Herald it may be difficult to recover from a bricked device. I bricked my device several times before getting it but luckily I have an unbranded Herald so I could just flash an official WM5 WWE back on. Lastly, do this at your own risk, this worked for me but may not work for others.

What I wanted to know is what I would have to do to switch the T-Mobile rom with the PdaViet rom in this process of cooking. I have tried various methods, but have had no luck right now. The ROM image I create hangs at the initial bootscreen.
Also on another note, not sure why this is but when I extract the PdaViet rom and then compile it back together using the Pro Kitchen, the new image is always a bit smaller (like I missed something.)

Question: How did you CID unlock your device?

I didn't have to CID Unlock to upgrade.

Well I found out that its normal for the rom size to shrink using the Core Pro Kitchen, this is because of Tadzio's program. What I can't seem to figure out is why I can't flash the new build of the PdaViet rom without it freezing at the first splash screen. At first I thought it was the missing .rgu files found by , but I have found out that those were taken out for a reason, so that cancels out one potential problem.

We just have to wait a little more. Anichillus is trying to creat the Kitchen for the herald as he promised it. But now after exams he is in holiday. But after that he will present a new kitchen. Just wait a little.
And yes - his kitchen compresses the files more than other.
Keep on working and cooking. The Heraldforum needs it really...
I never liked PDAViet roms - so let´s creat own ones...
Thanks

Thanks for the update, and only reason I wanted to use the PdaViet rom is cuz it has the newest build. Guess I'll just work with k0ster's release.

Yeah man, i'll beta test any roms you create, I just paid to have my Wing CID Unlocked and i'm trying out PDAVIET's rom's now.

Be careful. When it get bricked whiel falshing there is NO chance to unbrick with Herlad RUU!!!
Believe me and don´t try it
Hope you will allways have success while flashing with Asergs Method

I thought you couldn't CID unlock the Wing.

^^imei-check. It worked so far. No other wing user has tried, I don't believe, i'm the first guinea pig.

So I just started to cook ROMs for the herald and I have to say it is a long and enduring process, but simple enough that anyone who wants to learn is able to do so.
For anyone else who is interested I am using the Core Pro Kitchen to build the roms, using this rom as my base (very clean-also good rom to load to your phone directly. Doesnt have missing files unlike PdaViet rom when running PkgTool.)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319142
I also found a very useful selection of OEM cab packages that work with the herald for the most part. If they dont a simple edit will do the trick.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319970&highlight=rom+kitchen+guide
Even a newb can cook up a rom using this method so there ain't no excuses.\
Cheers
So by all means all P4350 users start experimenting and cooking up ROMS so that Terra and Wing users have something to look forward to when they have an RUU.

Which version of Core Pro Kitchen are you using? The one for Hermes?

anichillus told me that the artemis version should work.
BUT write an pm to him and he will give you a link to his "Hyper Core Kitchen" the complete new one!!!!!!!!!
Give it a try

im going to try this out again and see if I can cook something up. I tried and actually created a rom be4 but was too scared to try it out. ill see if I can have a release by the end of the week but my computers been acting up. imma try to get the touchFLO working also.
neptune, post your cooked rom up or post some pics. did u do a traditional rom or one with the Touch home plugin and stuff?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=323166
Would you be able to add that into your rom? It's a button free activation of the 3D Cube!

i'm currently cooking a rom using the Artemis kitchen, i'll post up how it goes, main issue for me is trying to make sure i'm putting packages in the right folder. I downloaded a .rar full of pre-mad packages so all I gotta do is drag and drop. i'm using k0ster's rom as a base but would love to use the official wm6 that was just released as a base as its newer and cleaner i'm guessing. we'll see, maybe we'll see some cooked roms from me soon!

It should be better to extract the REAL WM6 rom with nbhextract and then start cooking the rom with the kitchen for Artemis (anichillus Core Kitchen??).
ANd be sure - in about one week there will be a new kitchen from him
But please use the real OS. Not a ported one!!

^Alright, i'll try that tonight. What is the major files that people remove? (Transcriber, etc.)

Just a little light - Rom choices

I'm sure this was posted many times before - I'm ready to wipe my wing.. i know i know, RTFM - I'm an engineer ... I'm looking for a shortcut to the most appropriate ROM for my wing needs.. Please advise, many friggen posts to choose from... Need standard apps, exchange email a must - also need office apps.. any suggestions ? So sick of running outta mem!!!! any suggestions are appreciated.... can I keep outlook with any custom Roms?
"so give me, just a little light" band/song????...
-Oldie

my guess is: any rom will do, just pick one of the newer fully loaded ones, they come packed with office standard (or better) apps and with all roms exchange mail should work. i believe the latest is open touch 6.5 biggy (i use aserg 12, but it is for herald, so you'd need a keyboard fix)

Yes to all your questions. Roms support full functionality of the phone.
I reccommend either ASERG Rom or ITJE Roms.

That bring another question, what is ITJE's newest (most updated) rom? I found a thread that has all his old rom and it said not support anymore.

just use the one with the highest build number; they are generally the newest.
in this case, this is the one (i think)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407646

ITJE bought himself a Kaiser .. so he's been a little busy in that forum .. as well as having a "real life" ...
Aserg disappeared too ... but his v12 rom is fast, stable and bull**** free... and I've been using it for over a very long time now.

I know. Had been using his rom for awhile. No doubt one of the best, but I always want to try the newest and most updated roms Is there a way we can kind of recook Aserg's rom, just do the updates maybe?

itje has a polaris, too.
ttran has a...... 8525?

If you your unsure about flashing a new rom I found when I first got my wing that changing the page pool size and getting battery status helped a lot. Its very easy to do and you still have the standard Tmo rom. If you want to flash a rom I would go with ttran's OT 5 original. Its basically the stock rom but made a lot better. Hope this helps.

[ROM] Can anyone tell the difference(s) btw 1.19 & 1.56

i saw a few post for the 1.56, and i visited the official site and found that there was really a 1.56 hardware upgrade.
did anyone install it and feel it?
can tell the difference?
as the title~~ some screen shot will be great
have a nice one

No difference)))just numbers)))

WiFi conectivity improveents?
For those of us that have intermittent WiFi connectivity issues; has anyone noticed any improvements connecting to hotspots after installing the new ROM?

Not my credits, it was posted earlier by another user. But it's not all about the numbers. Drivers, xip, os as well as packages changed.

I told you)))just different numbers))))

Well, take a look at nk.exe and the other parts in the xip. Run a diff with an hexeditor. Change in offsets. Also the os changed. Run a diff on 1.19 and 1.56. Also the drivers changed. So I guess it's not only the numbers. But show me if I am wrong

OK)))XIP,SYS and OEM all cookers always change it doesn't matter which version is it)))
Only few different drivers...You cannot use it without new SPL or you have to flash through USPL...But again)))numbers)))(size is a numbers,versions are numbers too))))

im still arguing if i should flash to new ROM 1.56. onkolog said no diff. just number changed. and i read the rom_diff, it showed many new version in ROM. so im gonna test the new ROM 1.56 (miri's v7.2 standard without manila) and will report the feel IMO. i hope this new ROM is better

Why)))you not understand one thing)))All cookers change OEM,SYS and XIP to newest always)))In ROM 1.56 old OEM,SYS and XIP...They don't use it...That why no difference between these ROMs...
Miri use OEM,SYS and XIP from Topaz and Rhodium and me too...and where is new ROM 1.56)))it's gone)))
Or if you change few files to newest it means you have new ROM?)))I don't think so...

The original poster was comparing stock roms

Sorry I don't understand. I use the xip's OEMXIPKernel part from 1.56, some new drivers and packages from the 1.56 rom. Indeed not sure if hTC fixed some issues in these components but we will find out. Enlighten me

That what I told...You and other cookers just use few new things from new ROM 1.56, but users think you use all ROM 1.56...They don't understand you correctly...That why I told no difference...only numbers)))

GPS
GPS is indeed faster to find a fix, but something odd I have noticed is that TomTom 7 doesn't say I am connected to any satellites, yet it has found my location and works perfectly fine otherwise...
Opera (Internet Browser)
With the old ROM, opera would always be slow to load up and after quitting the application the phone would screw up somehow, either it becomming sluggish or crashing or getting a 'dont send' error. In this new ROM, it is much faster to load up and quit, however, it is still kind of buggy for me and sometimes crashes. Its still not stable (in my opinion).
Battery Life
Regarding battery life, I haven't seen much of a difference. If anything I would have to say this ROM has got a bit better battery life but nothing much, its negliable.
In General
The new ROM in general is slightly faster, but only by a small amount. Some people wouldn't probably even notice this speed difference because it is so small.
Worth Upgrading?
Depends. If you use GPS a lot then this could be for you. But soon people will probably start cooking with this as the base ROM so you will get these features and more anyway. Also it can be risky upgrading to this ROM, with it being HardSPL incompatible and having its own SPL embedded. If you have the time and patience, then theres no reason why not to upgrade.

Cool, thanks for telling that.
for my experience, TTom works well in my 1.19, so.....
i think i should let my device stay the same way she did

just numbers... well your right evan data is just numbers 1010111001001 but they can they can make a differance. 1.56 has updated os ect which a good **** can easaly better but theees also the updated spl with some firmware w for the new drivers ect now the divers and spl arnt gona b bettered by a cook only incorpirated only a proramer, developer, someone who knows the languages ect could mess with thouse. im hoping olinex will hack the new spl for us soon which whould make it esy to flash 1.56 coocked roms.
as i said new drivers and firmware which includes new drivers and firmware for the graphics. im hoping htc have given us heardware acceleration but time will tell. a better base to start from will always give you a better reault and sone of the guys here work wonders so lets hope and see what happens.

Cooking Windows Mobile 6.5 - Problems and Questions

I decided to start this Thread because every "new cook" here is trying to cook a good wm6.5 rom. But there are still Bugs and Mistakes.
I solved some Problems and i still got ones.
maybe we can all share Solutions we found so we can cook a Rom with as less bugs as possible
My Question here:
In the new 21501 build there is the runcc package. I didnt want it so i deleted all the related files and initflashfiles-entries and coked in the checkautorun, autorun and sdautorun (for UC).
In the initflashfile i created the shortcut of checkautorun for the startup folder. But after flash i got : "Theres no Application associated with checkautorun" (or sth. like that) i recognized that my autorun file was deleted due to it was cooked in windows directory.
So my Question: How can i get the normal Autorun thing work?
/edit. because none reacted i tried myself in imitating god. i took a ridge from adam and created eva out of it. i.e. i took some files from the older build and put them in the newer one.... exactly all the OEMdriver files and some OperatorPKG files... will see it it helps
/edit don't help.
i wonder... has noone of you the same errors? Has noone of you the solution for my problem...

Runcc is needed by quite a lot of HTCs apps, as a background process.
it's also how they are starting to do the initial customizations..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3613983#post3613983 have a read for some interesting stuff, there's also other threads on runcc to search for..
It's also one of the reasons why roms are getting quicker..
I'd leave it in..

argh no that i started to learn how things work (the autorun thing) there will be a new standard in customization
that sucks xD
But i thought runcc dont run bugless on our xperia.
I prefer a little slower rom without bugs =)

Runcc is also in the X1 roms...
as I said some software needs it to be able to run, it appears to be a file parser.

WM6.5 bugs ???
Good idea for a new thread
I've been struggling the whole year with it
But now it is working fine, hard to domesticate *****, but finally ported to the xperia: all working fine
PS: may I suggest you to stick to the previous 2500 build, no big difference in SYS-XIP filez

hm... would be an idea
.....
a good one ^^
yeah I think you're right

What a pitty. Looks like no one is interested in sharing Solutions and asking for them.
Seems like all the newbie cooks stopped cooking (haha expected that).

I'm still cooking my little roms I deleted the cc thingy too and had the same error at startup. I just ignored it. Would also like to know how to start the autoinstall at startup, still learning.
Did you manage to assign the right softkey when you're on the clock to htc comm.manager? I got the standard winmo comm.manager right now.
I looked up the regkeys and there's only the left softkey assigned...
This thread would be really nice if all the new cooks would chip in on the problems

I dont work with Runcc anymore ^^ Changed back to 21500 because of that.
As I dont include the HTC Comm Manager in my ROMs that wasnt a bug for me. But i managed to get the Bubble with the Comm Manager Link working like i want --> it refers to winmo comm manager (wrlsmgr.exe)
This Button isnt assigned in registry because its changeable (with new titanium tab there comes a new link)
I think we have to look for the solution in titanium itself.
I've searched through the titanium 800x480.cpr but there was nothin about this

Ha I've got the Fix for ya

How do I put the Sony Ericsson original animated splash screen into jerpelea's kitchen?

@kid_dc
Thanks, I found it last night too....took me a while...
I just checked out the new, updated Chome editor and it seems that you can change the softkeys with the app now.
Here is the link but I didnt try it yet since I'm at work.

You should also check out the new fave people panel. Pretty awesome stuff.
Personally I use wm 6.5 as my main os now and it just rocks. Just love the new and lite home/titanium. Great job from microsofts side.
There's also the known weather panel and an opera panel.
Also looking forward to see new panels coming.
And about the autoinstall stuff...
mobilevu posted a nice instruction in his rom thread in the 2nd post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505214

Yeah in my Full Rom (Medium id coming today ) I'll add all the Add-On's to Titanium so its get a very powerfull GUI
Oh so you dont need my fix anoymore ^^ sad to hear that but if you want to change it without any third party apps this is the place to look up

hehe, actually I fixed the softkey last night excatly the same way you wrote!
So I sensed your answer
Looking forward to your rom. Really curious

1- Copy SEMC*.gif (from R2A) into OEM/OperatorPkg or OEM/OEMDrivers
Write a provxml file to associate it with the starupanimation engine
2- Add the StatupAnimatonEngine PACKAGE to your OEM folder
Piece of cake
PS: If you dunno how to mke a xmp or provxml, get "fileoperations.xml" from R2A base ROM, edit it with NotePad, delete all the other shizzz (but preserving the xml structure !!) and drop it into OEM/OperatorPkg, then invoke your custom "fileoperations.xml" from config.txt (XML: /Windows/"fileoperations.xml")

[Q] Questions re: BuildOS, WM6.5 stock files etc,...

Hi!!
*i've spent hours browsing the web and xda searching for answers*
okay, here's the story, I used to have a HTC Titan / 6800 a couple of years ago. When i had it i learned all about flashing etc. Made a few OS's even posted one on here and amassed a 15gb collection of all things PPC ;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650368
I sold that pocket PC. bad decision as i really liked messing around with them. So here i am a few years later, i've bought myself a Tytn II /Kaiser.
Before when i made the OS for the other one i used BuildOS from PPCKitchen
I used the kitchen files included after updating, also the NZ carrier that was available in PPCK and i had a nifty file repository i found which got updated with the very latest Windows Mobile builds and i would just import those files into PPCK (If PPCK didn't have that build).
Alas,... I can't find PPCKitchen anymore... from what i read they were updating their servers a few years ago.. but am not sure if they'll be back..
*If you can let me know whether they're still around that would be great, i keep getting DNS error when going to their page*
So far i've SPL unlocked the TYTN II using Hardspl.
I've also downloaded another cooking app called OS Kitchen Zero - Nice appy.
But i have no idea where to find the windows files to import into it. I don't want to edit my original windows mobile 6.1 on it, I'd rather install a fresh copy of windows mobile 6.5 .
And i don't want to edit someone elses rom, Just pretty much start off how i did before with a blank slate (fresh WM6.5 files - god i cant even remember the file extension) so to speak - this way any bugs i know are a result of me.
I'm not sure what will happen to my original carrier with this program also as i'd still like it to work with the New Zealand networks.
Anywayyy.. to SUM it up;
If you can help with the following questions i'd be very grateful;
1. Where's PPCKitchen / BuildOS gone? will they be back? Is there any place i can download the app in the meantime?
2. Where can i find Stock Titan windows mobile 6.5 Kitchen files? (The same that were needed for buildos - that it got from the updater)
3. Radio is not the same as carrier right ?.. or is it? I vaguely remember them being separate... Should i just flash a NZ radio to the device .. or do i need to choose NZ as the carrier also?
4. Is there a program like PPCkitchen that is inclusive of the WM builds and carriers avail?
5. CID/SIM unlock - do i need it? as i've already SPL unlocked.
And anything else that you think i might need help with.
Thanks, I appreciate it.
Reaper

UPDATE : Amongst my PPC files i found the BuildOS Installer. Unfortunately without a server to contact there are no builds or app packages so cannot build a rom. I'm not fussed about the packages at present just need some build files if anyone knows where to get them. Thanks

Tried integrating files into PPCKitchen but the build wasn't coming up.
Flashed to WM6.5 21820 from there, All working fine, sim included.
I read a lot of that post too, good info, am going to start cooking without PPCKitchen now. Seems like a lot more things i can play around with.
Cheers, legendary.
