A Quick Question about osKitchen - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

When extracting a ROM does it matter what ROM it is? I tried to upload the GSM Energy GTX Cookie ROM from July 24, and it said that there was an error while importing the file.
"Can't extract files or build packages from IMGFS structure. Please make sure the ROM is not corrupted, that it's an original ROM updated released by the manufacturer and not an user-generated ROM."
I thought this might mean that I needed an actually stock ROM so I have looked for stock t-mobile ROMs and they are all in the .exe file type.
I'm a little confused, anyone care to help a noob out real quick? Thanks!

May be you will get mor luck with answer here? Dont you think?

hehe, I was frustrated because I wasn't getting an answer, I sent airextreme a PM and he never answered. I posted here so that people could help me with TP2 specific things (like if someone suggested a different kitchen for the tp2 or something like that). I know, it wasn't the right thing to do. I would delete this thread If i could.
For reference to other people airextreme replied with this: "You have to import the EXE file: the kitchen will unpack it as long as it's a recognized one"

EBO (Easy Bake Oven) On Hold - Update 11/26/07

11/26/07 update:
I've placed the project on hold for a while. I've been too busy to work on it and so instead, I'm working on an optimized ROM for my Wing. I might end up just using that ROM as the base ROM. It's based on the Touch-IT.
Update: Still working on release v0.4. So far, so good. No bugs found, yet.
Success! Tested AND Working flashed on my Wing!!!
Here it is! Version 0.3
All the passwords are: "ding"
Step one:
Download the Kitchen files:
Save them somewhere, say a folder called "Ivan's Kitchen."
Step two:
Download the OEM and SYS folders:
Dump them into the Working_Folder within the EasyBakeOven folder that you extracted on the first step.
Step three:
Download the ROM folder and follow the same instructions as step two.
Step four:
Download the Packages into the OEM folder.
Step five:
Run the RunMe file. Choose if you want the BioTouch. Choose if you want Office. Check what programs you want. Click on the little green "play" button. When it says "Done." at the bottom, close that window and follow the prompts.
This is a BuildOS kitchen. Download the packages and just double click on the batch file I made you.
Make sure you have enough harddrive space... I tried it on my laptop and I kept getting REALLY small os.nb files. lol
Now I just need someone to make me some good atwork... or I can make one myself.
BUGS Fixed:
V0.3
Camera Packages - Removed the camera packages and restored the original camera.
CommManager Packages - Updated their registry to reflect the Herald's wifi.
Removed Touchflo ghost icon. It was a mistake from my end. It's an icon pointing to nothing.
V0.2
Too many to fix... Just ignore the fact that V0.1 ever happened...
If upgrading from the previous version:
Download these files and the file attached and overwrite the current set. Delete the two camera folders under the OEM folder.
If not, download the whole thing again.
If you downloaded the original broken Alpha release: Trash it. Download the newest one. That one had more holes that swiss cheese.
Bugs found and how to fix them.
I missed an extra file when I updated the camera fix. I'll fix it on the next release. For now just delete the file "Camera.lnk" from the OEM\OEMAPPS folder.
11/19/07 - Nevermind, I completely broke the camera again. I'll have it fixed soon. I'll have to look through the original ROM and find the missing files.
V0.4 Coming Soon!
Changes so far:
Fix extra camera.lnk
Set packages needed for a basic working ROM to be selected by default.
More packages!!
Thank you's goes to:
God for giving me the patience to work on this.
ITJE for his base ROM
LordPhong for his Touch-IT fixes
mattk_r for inspiring me with his kitchen and for most of the packages
Warning:
Any damages caused by your ROM to your phone is solely your resposibility. The chances of you really bricking your phone are slim to none. As long as it's a WING. I haven't tested this on anything else.
Also, if you have a 64bit OS: Don't even try to use the flashing tool. It will not work.
Packages and Screenshots
This kitchen's base ROM builds a 12mb pagepool.
You'll have to use the pagepool changer to get it to your liking.
I'll be listing all packages in a few hours.
Here are a few screenshots.

good ish, looking forward to it. One question, for the programs and tweaks, are you just going to include the most popular, or can requests/suggestions be made?
oh yes. very anticipated. This has the ability to JUST add biotouch, that is, without the cube? If so, mad props to you.
Also, two questions
1. Will I be able to change the base rom?
2. Can I get it to spit out the .nbh file from the RUU? Just for us CID-unlocked people?

I'm still working on the possibility of seperating.... we'll see...
As far as your questions go:
1. Yes.... BUT, you will have to STRIP the ROM down in order to avoid errors from the kitchen. (Not as hard as it sounds, mostly just searching for the duplicate files that the kitchen throws an error out for. Just time consuming.)
The base ROM is just that. Basic as can possibly be. If you want a newer version of the OS and are up to stripping down that ROM for my kitchen, I'll add it here without a problem. This is more of a collection of works from all parts of this community, so if anyone wants to add packages to the lot, porting over newer versions of wm6 or whatever it may be (like art work,) they're more than welcomed to.
Does it go "ding" when it's done?

lol. I'll add that to my todo list. (j/k... maybe)
Great work! Can't wait till its online.
The perfect solution for "cooking" your own Rom without the diffult (but most of all time consuming) proces of getting into Hypercore kitchen. Finally within the reach of my limited sparetime.
You could try to contact Itje about the differences between Wing and Herald?
Keep us posted on the proceedings!
Good Work!
Just one question.
Does it allow us to change the language?

I've being trying to PM every herald cook that I know of for a few weeks now, to no avail. No one has responded.
This sounds like a very, very good thing. I've been wanting something like this since I started playing with different ROMs.
very nice. morphgear?
nice work cant wait. have a question i have morphgear(nes emulator) and i actually paid for it. i was wondering since its an execution file can that be converted into a oem package for my own use with this kitchen?

ROM Cooking First Time - I HAVE SEARCHED and searched...

Hi,
Please could someone point me in the right direction on a tutorial/guide on how to use KovskyKitchen? If there isnt one at the moment then please let me know.
Furthermore could someone let me know how to rip/extract the baseROM from a UK Vodafone X1. I am completely new to this game but would like to make my X1 as lean as possible (really how I see fit), do worry I HAVE SEARCHED THE FORUMS but cant seem to find a definitive guide.
Cheers,
Phil Rich

There isn't one for X1. But you could read the guide for kitchen for other device (Touch pro, kaiser ...etc) since all are basically the same.
Basically, you need to put the extracted nbh file in /baserom and run the command the to extract.
Or maybe you could try mine or itje's lite/clean rom to save yr time.
searched and searched but didn't bother reading a couple of threads down on here..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446382&page=2
to dump the rom you need itse rom tools and run pdocread.
if you type rom dump into the google search at the top it tells you how to do it.
I have dumped the vfuk rom, but the 4 raw files are even at maximum compression 250mb+ so I haven't had time to post them
When you have the 4 raw parts you stick one of the base ruu_signed.nbh roms that are already on this forum and put part2 & part3 raw files in the base rom folder of the kovsky kitchen, as said here.

Thanks for the advice, but...
Hi,
Thanks for the links fards.
Please could you describe to me what a nbh file is?
What does it do and where can I get one from?
Does this come from the ROM dump?
Thanks,
Phil

Just curious, but do you have any experience flashing ROMs yet? I have owned 3 XDA's and flashed many ROMs so I know a lot about the ROMs SPL's and such. Thats something you should be knowledgeable in. I am thinking about getting into cooking too now.
A nbh file is a ROM. The nbh is the product of your cooking, and the nbh is what you put into the RUU to flash to your device. You can get it from a ROM dump or you can download it from others.
It's always a good idea to just download the tools, start them up and take a look around. See what options are available and get familiar with them. From there start asking questions. It's a bit hard to answer if you're basically saying "tell me everything".

you're learning fast
all ive ever done is read the other device tutorials and had a play, although i did prefer the hypercore kitchen on the athena to the kovsky/kaiser based one.
but it does the job especially with the really neat options.xml generator
I am starting to learn to cook roms, does the HyperCore work for xperia? what kind of dump should i select? normal OS.bin (option 3)?

[SOLVED] .jar? can the extension be flashed?

well ive been downloading a couple of roms ending in "xxxxx.zip.jar" i was wondering if they can be simply flashed like regular update.zip files if i just renamed it update.zip.jar or what is the correct procedure i must take to safely flash my new rom or theme?

Those honestly sound like viruses to me. Like the stuff you find on the internet, "oh you want this pic? Download xxx.jpg.exe." DONT DO IT.
find the ROM links on this forum
I echo xsnipuhx. XDA is known for developer mods and ROMs and thus is a reputable source. Best to get it here if possible unless you trust the source you've downloaded it from. If you don't know where it came from to begin with then its not worth the risk.
i get them here, but they are links to 4share and when i download form there the zips turn into .jar files. which are some java type. but i just changed the extension from .zip.jar to just .zip and they functioned just fine. thank you guys though. btw i have a macbook so dunno if that has anything to do with the functioning working correct. Just flashed to Drizzy MyTouchFlo, real nice.
Ah, that could be why then having a mac. Well it works ^_^
Could you please edit your thread title to include [SOLVED] so mods and others know? Thanks

Cannot rebuild stock ROM

I am still a noob, searching already for days and not having a solution. I would be grateful if someone can guide me:
I try to teach myself to cook (a ROM). As an exercise I dumped the new S2 Europe stock rom with Ervius visual kitchen 1.82 in order to immediately recreate it back (with PP = 18 and "real wm6.5 AKA" checked). rebuilding and flashing is OK, but Rhodium is stuck on the logo screen. I also tried different radios - (91 original & 77) with no results.
By the way, i did this exercise with the previous stock rom ("S") and it worked.
Can someone give a hand?

you need to recmod(module to file) NTFconfig.dll, you will find it in the notification manager pkg
we now have a new forum section called Chef Central, you should go read some there and if you have any more cooking questions just ask there we will try to help you.
Wow, what a quick answer! thanks. I am just about to go through the "chef central". Please allow a quick question: I was under the impression that "opening" and "closing" the same stock ROM will require no modifications. Why am I wrong?

honestly im not sure why, maybe the dumping tools are dumping it as a module when its supposed to be a file all i know is that if you recmod that file it should boot
It's not problem with dumping tools, it is problem with platformrebuilder, it has problems handling this module, just as some others (try reversmodding phcanImages in dialer). Not sure why, without bepe we can't solve it any other way, than using it as file.

Request Stock unmodified framework-res.apk

Hy guys. I'm trying to create a theme for my phone and wondered could anyone upload the nexus 1's stock unmodified framework-res.apk?
Thanks in advance.
Tryed allready the search button and google to no avail.
How about starting with the fact that there is no "stock", you need to define the OS version / build? Specifically, it was originally shipped with ERD79, upgraded to ERE27, then Froyo came and it was FRF91, and now it's 2.2.1, FRG83. What is "stock"?
When you answer that question, why don't you visit my signature, download ROM of your choice from there, and extract the framework-res.apk out of it? It might take less time than waiting for someone to do it, especially that most people that are capable of doing it and have their phone rooted, run custom ROMs...
Alternatively, you could just get it from your phone.....
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Sent from my Nexus One

Touche
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
First off thank you for answering. Second why all the "attack".
I'll refrase my question:
I would like, if I don't disturb you, an unmodified froyo stock version framework-res.apk.
Any version would do.
The reason that I don't extract mine is that I don't own a nexus 1. As visible in my signature I own a galaxy S. And yes mine is rooted also, and yes it's modified mutch like yours, and I would like to modifie it some more, hense the request for framework-res.apk.
I'm sorry to say that I'm not sure how to extract it from a rom that is not flashed in a phone.
Yes I'm a little newbie in some things but I came here to learn and to try things. I didn't ask either of you to build me a rom or make me anything, thats what I'm trying to do myself, and not bother anyone whit my wishes.
A bit off topic. Sorry for that. If you can't or won't upload thats fine to.
PS You don't have to be mean.
I've uploaded for you framework-res.apk from old Enomther's build, which is somewhat resembling stock. I really don't want to download 80MB of a stock ROM only to extract a file from there and put it here. And as I said, most people that are rooted and run stock ROMs aren't able to help you, having no idea what to do because they rooted the phone without any understanding, and those that are, mostly run custom ROMs and don't have stock ROM available. My current framework-res won't help you either, because it's modified.
Nexus ROM is a simple ZIP file, packed with exactly the same directories as the ROM, and all the files in them. In the /system/app, you find framework-res. Extracting the file from there is as simple as extracting the file from any ZIP archive.
This wasn't an attack, but an explanation and suggestion to do something yourself. Obviously it didn't work.

Thank you. And your wrong it did work. It made my keep reading and managed to extract from a stock rom I downloaded. So I have to thank you because you made me work harder and now I know how to extract files from an .img.
PS I still think you were talking a little bit like you are superior to others.
No offense of course that is just my opinion and it might be very wrong.
Again thank you for your help and I mean that sincerely.
Well, I was maybe a bit sarcastic, but I didn't mean to offend you at all. Sorry if it sounded harsh.
P.S. I completely forgot that stock ROM doesn't look like custom ROMs, and contains complete IMGs. There is an easy way to extract them - using unyaffs - but you already know it, since you did it. I'm really sorry for forgetting that part, if I'd remember that - I'd point you to the relevant guide to begin with. My bad.
