hai ather
i am a newbie too
can u explain it to me,first step to cooking rom need ather cooker v4.thank very much n sory for my bad english
hi
i am interested to learn about rom cooking, have used the kitchen 4 for dumping.
need help to figure out what are the necessary files in dump folder and what are addons, how to put more addon (availabe as cab files) and how to delete unwanted programs before rebuilding the nk file
any detail help with some simple example will really help
many thanks in advance
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
See Attachment.
You have to load the provxml at User Costumization at first Start or you can include it in the OEM Folder (dont know if possible..)
Key was at HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome
thanks kid_DC for opening up this thread. I do hope the chef masters could visit this thread and answer some of our questions.
I do have a question:
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.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=481379
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

BETTER (and easy) SOLUTION FOR COMM MANAGER NOT BEING LAUNCHED FROM THE TASKBAR ICONS:
Drop this tweaked commmanagerlink.exe file into the OEM/OEMDrivers folder
That's all
How I did it ??
I noticed all REGs and DLLs were pointing to "commmanagerlink.exe" instead of "wrlsmgr.exe"
I rebuilded the wrlsmgr.exe file and renamed it to commmanagerlink.exe
WORK A TREAT

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")

I have downloaded and tried your ROM, it's a great ROM, almost exactly what I wanted in my mind.
I would really appreciate if you could share your kitchen and let me experiment.

Which version of wm6.5 do you use ?
Sorry for the n00b question, but is it possible to use this kitchen to re-build a ROM from extracted .raw files?

yes
you can use it
Further noob question: How do I create a useable .exe file from a directory in this kitchen (e.g. sqmevent.exe). Is there a compiler of some sort included in the kitchen?
My ROM has lost this file and I am getting annoying errors, so I want to regenerate and replace it...
Cheers,
Jim.
nice to see you here Jerpelea!

Aha. But how do you do that? I've been looking at this thread but I don't get it. There is no guide on the wiki and I cannot figure out what to de when I see the stuff inside the RAR. Care to help? Thanks

I rebuilt a Kaiser ROM in the past (which took me ages), and spent a while trying to do this for my Rhodium ROM with no luck.
I was attempting to reconstruct a Vodafone ROM, which can now be downloaded from Vodafone, so I don't have much need to continue with it.
However I can see that a simple step by step tutorial would be very useful, and possibly a 'rebuilding' kitchen set up specifically for this task, ideally with a folder to put in the part.raws + base ROM, and then a script that did the rest would be marvellous!
Sadly I'm not clever enough to do this, but if you're reading this and it'd be easy for you to do, please share it
I was too deconstucting the vodafone rom that i downloaded, its quite lightweight compared to some other OEM roms but theres still room to strip some stuff out of it, i did try and use the packages i.e. OEM SYS and ROM with the Visual Kitchen along side the EXT folder from my extracted voda rom but that didnt work, all i want to do is get rid of packages haha,
That said i think i managed to get rid of goodle maps, deleted the folder in EXP for the package and used visual kitchen, searched all modules for google and removed any entries for google maps, it doesnt show up anymore, whether or not this means its is not installed im not sure but i cut 2MB off the rom size by getting rid of it...
Little by little (=
How cook with this rom????
i have copy SYS ROM and OEM on root of kitchen
and after that running 2_Create_ROM.bat
when finish open the htctool but the new os.nb have already deleted from the kitchen :S
any idea?
I dont use this kitchen as im not proficient with the whole scrypting/cooking thing yet
Id say if your learning then go for the Visual Kitchen, thats what i use as im just trying to understand how the file system etc works
please delete this post is obsolete
Hello guys, i have question.
For example i can`t find a Explanations for new persons who wana cook a ROM.
I found some Kitchens but its not writen anything, and is very hard for peoples who are new in the cooking to understand anything.
For example.. some Short Thread and usefl explanation like.. You need to download a Kitchen then you need to find and download OEM, SYS etc etc the elements for cooking new ROM and then you begin start cooking.
Its so confused that i even can`t find the latest packages to use for the Blackstone.
So all the things are not so hard.. and if we have Thread with good exmplantation.. we can read it several times and to know what we doing exactly, not everybody is born like a cooker and i think that everyone who wana cook ROM`s in the future i mean NEW Cookers will be awesome we to have from where to read ALL IN ONE post.
If Some Cooker can make a STEP BY STEP Guide in one Thread this will be very usefull for all.
For example now i wana Cook a ROM but i don`t know How, because its full with Thread and how much you read them is more and more confused.
Thanks in advance
OK, will give some ideas how to start. I am a beginner, so here I will tell you, how I started.
Before you start cooking:
- download this kitchen, which already have all needed packages in(Windows Mobile [6.5.5][23529] Manila 2.5 and other stuff). If you want kitchen with no packages go in this thread and for different SYS packeges look at this thread
This kitchen is best choice for new cookers, because it contains explanation for each system package.
- Then, read this thread - it was really useful for me, at least in general terms.
- Also, in process of cooking you will want to change some registry, so, keep in ming, that you should look mainly at these two files, they are for general registry settings
user.hv & default.hv
I am using WinCE Registry Editor to open them.
Cooking in Process
1) Beginning
When you will open kitchen in the first time you will see something like this
Then you should choose all main options such as Device Model, SYS build and so on...(if you downloaded kitchen without packages, you should add them manually - look at the "Folders in the root of kitchen" part to find, where you should place all packages)
When you will finish it, go to System Packeges(core components in WM)
Also, you need to choose, which OEM and EXT packages you want in your ROM
If you want clean ROM, just uncheck EXT packages, which you don't need. But remember, unlike EXT many of the SYS and OEM packages are crucial and specific for each device.
Please also explain how to REMOVE things from the pakacke that i don`t like for example programs if i want to remove mp3 trimmer and will be the same for all other apps that we wana remove
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well, as I said, in order to remove any program from ROM(for example MP3 Trimmer), you shoul remove its package from kitchen(simply uncheck it)
2) Folders in the root of kitchen
This is how base folder of my kitchen looks like.
CABs folder were created by manually(Oprional - you don't need to create it if you don't want). I am using this folder for all cabs, which I will convert in EXT packages in the future.
Flash folder is "the folder where cooked ROMs will be saved when the build process is complete" and also it have all necessary file for flashing.
Projects folder is folder where all your projects will be saved.
Resources folder contain "files and tools necessary for the kitchen to work, don't touch it!"
Sources folder contains all SYS, Kernels, etc. This is main folder, where you can change everything related to WM and its programs.
So, there is Sources subfolders:
-> EXT - there you can create folders and put your ext packages
-> MSXIPKernel - always create folder named as version and inside it place all MSXIPKernel files
-> NK - native kernels, create there folder for your device (names in first post). Learn more about this folder in the kitchen tutorial.
-> OEM - Here create just as with NK your device-named folder and place in it OEM files
-> ROM - There also create device-named folder and place in it romhdr.bin, os.nb.payload and folder XIP with MSXIPKernelLtk and OEMXIPKernel without nk.exe!!
-> Stuff - just some stuff for devices, you can't do anything there, don't touch it
-> SYS - There create version-named directories. In them are supposed to be few more directories:
->-> All - There goes DPI and RES related stuff, but NO LANGS!
->-> Common - There place all nonDPI, nonRES, nonLANG related files, just main binaries etc
->-> <lang code> - here goes all langs, like 0405, 0409, 0C0A etc
This was partly copied from kitchen manual, so if you want, you can read more about structure of these folders in this manual.
3) Import CABs, OEM and SYS packages to EXT
One of the main part of cooking process is adding programs in the kitchen.
You can do it in two ways - using program tools or copying in the EXT folder whatever you want.
Here, I will explain easiest way of how to do it by using program tools.
First of all, go to "Convert"
then choose option, for example "From CAB to EXT", fill all blank spaces
and you will see, that your packages will be added in the ROM
That's all! Then, when you will finish, just press "Start cooking" and waiting for results
I hope it was clear enough. If you have any question - post it in this thread or PM, I will try to answer.
Thanks for the Help, now i will explain you what i want exactly!!!
Why i want to cook a ROM
So i already have few Favorite ROM`s they are cool but they can be even more better, and clear.
For example i can`t dupm the ROM`s i love because they are protected etc.
So i like the Builds from Branch COM 2 now the latest one is 21893 i like them most because they are Fast and Stable, I just want to Have one Clear WM 6.5 Build ROM with Manila 2.1.19.21
What i mean by clear is ... all the ROM`s have alot of apps and things that im not using and never will use on the future, so this apps that are coocked just eat from my device memory. Also i want the default stock Task bar icons.. because if i want to costumize them i can do all this with Theme just to install a cab.
This is only the reason why i wana cook a ROM if you have any idea also HOW i can edit a ROM for example this my FAVORITE ROM witch is NBH file just to OPen it extract is somewhay and to remove all apps i want and to do some minorr changes and again to make it a nbh file will be awesome i mean that in this way i will not have need to cook a brand new ROM.

SYS_21895_XIP.rar

Aliff this will be a GREAT TUT MAN I LOVE YOU.. if you do all the things like this after this THREAD is finished almost everyone will be able to cook a ROM
Thank you i will wait when you finish with the TUT and will Start READ step by step to don`t miss anything.
Please also explain how to REMOVE things from the pakacke that i don`t like for example programs if i want to remove mp3 trimmer and will be the same for all other apps that we wana remove
Okay if I understand you right the SYS Package is that for the Build and if i want diferent Build i just need to change the SYS the OEM is the Base and i can use now this OEM that is inclused in the Kitchen or i can Update this too? For example i download now the latest I download
SYS_21895_192DPI_0409 --- I understand that 192DPI is for our Blackstones 0409 mean WWE
SYS_21895_Common.rar
SYS_21895_XIP.rar
So i only need this components tocreate a new 21895 based rom and i can use the OEM that is on the Kitchen or i must change it too?
Testing method
thanks for the tutorial, i myself has been wanting to create my own ROM but dont really know where to begin...
1 thing that i would like to ask, is there a way to test the ROM without actually flashing it to the device? well, you know a newbie in cooking, can result in undesirable result if not properly done, and dont really want to brick my device (touchwood)...

Nothing like that exists that I am aware off. BTW you will have to make it really terrible to brick your device with a bad ROM.
Cooking means, altering stuff, cooking, flashing, f'ing up, alter some more stuff, cook, flash and so on.. There is no easier way to test unfortunally.
Yeah, thanks.
It's not probable that I'd cook my own ROM, but you never know...
This thread is Awesome!!
I had the same problem just like anyone else.....
You just don't know where to start and where to get the sys builds etc.
Is there a moderator who thinks this is usefull? please make it sticky

Can anyone give me the sources from where to download the Packages i need? I google few hours and don`t find this things that im looking for.
I download SYS 21895 but i need EXT packages that include the latest 2.1.19.21 Sense Manila
Also from where can download this Manila CFC Compressed etc?
ALso if someone point me from where to get the latest Upto Date OEM packs will be cool.
I want to try to cook Blackstone WWE WM 6.5 ROM build 21895 with Manila 2.1.19.21 also with the latest Up To Date APPS etc

I download SYS 21895 but i need EXT packages that include the latest 2.1.19.21 Sense Manila
Also from where can download this Manila CFC Compressed etc?
ALso if someone point me from where to get the latest Upto Date OEM packs will be cool.
I want to try to cook Blackstone WWE WM 6.5 ROM build 21895 with Manila 2.1.19.21 also with the latest Up To Date APPS etc

You can find the latest Manila here:

The CFC application:

latest Up to Date apps can be found in sparkies thread, Tmob Leo 2.10 ext packages
Does anyone know if it's possible to cook using Linux via WINE? I'm thinking it should be as there is no actual activesync required.
Wouldn't mind 'trying' to put together a 6.1 ROM
Excellent tutorial stuff
Question time:
I made myself a 23544 rom and cooked it with no ext packages at all. It flashed and booted fine, so I added all of the Leo 2.10 packages - nothing else. Now it boots to a white screen. I'm guessing there are some incompatible packages for the HD2, or I'm missing some dependencies for the HD. Anybody know what these are?
I have decided rather than keeping two threads open for the same build, I am going to concentrate on my thread in the HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development thred which is here: The direct link thread is here:
Change Logs

GhostXSeries, I think I sent you (quite time ago) a PM, asking you if you like to develope a private rom for me.
Interesting?

There is no need to now, simply download my oskitchen, click the applications you want and press build, it is really that easy
To be or not to be
Nice work. I am totally novice in this addiction of being a ROM chef. I have tried many custom ROMs but I am not totally satisfied. To cook a Spanish version of a ROM for a US T-mobile, which base ROM do you recommend? Thanks.

I would downlaod a standard spanish rom from the HTC site and create a new oskitchen, then import the rom. Once you have done that copy accross the nk.exe from my kitchen, that should then make it tmous compatable.
You could then copy accross all my customisations accross on to your kitchen and start from there! If you copy sense accross remember to remove it from the HTC leo packages folder!
re
hello GhostXSeries
which pack in the kitchen is responsible for the in Rome under SETTINGS -> TEXT LOCAL for local en-gb stands. I want to change the en-us. but I do not know where that is stored?
thank you

Thanks for your advise. Well, I will tell you what I have done:
Kitchen downloaded... easy
Spanish standard ROM downloaded (hard to find but finally done)
Create a new oskitchen (that means to open osKitchen and press the "new project" button, doesn't it?)
Import the ROM (the programs asks me always if I want to create a new folder, default_2 for example. What should I choose?)
Trying to make compatible with TMoUS... I can't find the NK.EXE application. Could you help me?
Finally, what does "copy across" mean? I suppose to use the applications that are included in your kitchen.
Thanks for your patience and your work. We all appreciate it.

Easiest way to do it, is to create a new folder and from my oskitchen copy accross oskitchen.exe and resources folder. Then open kitchen and import your rom.
Next go to oskitchen\sources\devices\htc leo\profiles\default\
delete folder nk.exe and copy the one from my kitchen into yours. This will make it tmous compatable.
Finally copy all the extra packages I created in to your kitchen and you should then be able to start building your own rom good luck man!

Are you talking about changing the default location from en-gb to en-us?
re
Yes. If I install the rom I have a site but I en-gb en-us site-one wants to have locally. but can not find where I need to change this.
many thanks

This is working for me: HKCU\MUI\CurLang=1034 (Spanish)
*Leo Hints, Tips and Registry Tweaks*
9. Change the Language of HTC Sense
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\MUI\CurLang and change the value 409 to 408 (Hex) (for example Greek) or try another value for your language. You can find all Windows Locale Codes here: http://www.science.co.il/Language/Locale-Codes.asp
Please read this thread before changing language: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583878
Also this
HKCU\Software\HTC\manila\Locale=en-GB (maybe changing to en-US)
