Hey guys!
Iam allmost done with my first rom! But i have one last glitch that i would love to get sorted out..
I want to replace my start menu icon with one that i have made by myself.. However i can't make this work.. If i open the Shellres.192.dll file with Reshack and navigate to Icon -> 292 and replace the icon with my own one. Save the Shellres.192.dll file and sign it with msigner.. And then finally replace the one in my SYS\Base_DPI_192\Shellres.192.dll\shellres.192.dll file with the newly modified one.. it just shows my old ordinary start menu icon.. :S
What am i doing wrong here ?
Thanks for your support !!

Edit the file as you like then delete the folder "Shellres.192.dll" leaving only
the file into the top folder "SYS\Base_DPI_192\"
Quick question about this...
In my kitchen, the Shellres.192.dll is actually a module. Does this mean I have to convert it to a file, edit it, then convert it back to a module?
The reason I ask is because I've spent the last three or four days cooking a 28205 ROM and it's performing well, and I'm not too sure about how converting this particular file will effect performance - From what I understand, modules will load faster than their "file" counterparts.
Not to mention I've cooked a few "unbootable" ROM's by converting too many modules to files, don't wanna make another blunder just because Shellres.192.dll is meant to stay as a module....

What's the take-home message about VM?
Keep Slot 0 as free as possible. WM 6.5 NK allows you to use more modules without taking up SLOT 0 space, so allows more flexibility to use modules (which are faster to load)

First off, congrats on almost getting your first rom completed. We like to encourage all members to create their own roms!!
But we feel that by the time any new chef has the appropriate knowledge to do this, they should also know by now how the XDA forums work. We already have plenty of kitchen and 'how to cook' rom threads.....so why start a new thread for a query which could be posted in an existing one?

It is the visual multilang kitchen based on last bepe's tools to build a rom made by Ervius , the other is made by vistang.

If you want to dump an "unprotected" rom of your choice, put it in the folder/Tools/RomSaved/Ruu_signed.nbh
Click in the visual kitchen under left on the field "Dump nbh/nb/payload", there will be made a new folder in
/Tools/RomSaved/dump with the extracted rom of your choice in it.
Now use the content of this folder as the base of your new kitchen.
I'm a "USER" myself so don't think I can solve all your problems.
I started this kitchen thread to help everybody to build their own rom for the BlackStone.
The blackstone kernel can't handle many modules in the native kernel.
The WM 6.5 native kernel is patched for use with the BlackStone.
Now use the content of this folder as the base of your new kitchen.
Don't use spaces in your kitchen folder name like this "c:\My Kitchen" but use it like this "c:\My_Kitchen".
Don't blame me as you brick your device, you are using this tool at your own risk.
Don't thank me, say thank you to Bepe, Ervius, Da_G and "ALL WHO SHARES" for there nice work
thanks man will u update kitchen with new build and OEM
could some one give a guideline how to cooking from this kitchen ? tks
Follow the step by step guide and you are able to build your own rom
Hello and many thanks for posting this!
Just built a test rom using this kitchen. Not changed anything.
My rom boots fine and looks good and is nice and fast. But the SD card is not listed in file manager. It seems to be missing from the system all together.
Any idea?
Thanks
the kitchens oem seems to be messy when trying to make clean rom i get extra files like BBC player autovolume pls try to clean kitchen
I connected through active sync and can reach the SD card on my device,
I dumped and extrcted rom 156 wwe in the kitchen and then added the sys and xip from 21232 and 21232 to it .
So all the drivers and so on should be in the kitchen, and I didn't take anything out.
@vjsxda
The dump is from 156 rom and the xip and sys are 21231 and 21232 nothing more in it.
Load rom "premium.erv" and then double click on "true" in the first row, the whole way down and enable or disable anything you want to build your own rom.
Save rom under any name you like for futer use.

not sure whats going on then! I ripped a standard 1.57 rom into it and built that and my SD shows up. Yet when I build it from the kitchen you posted I get no SD card.
No idea whats going wrong! I will try extracting the kitchen again.
To make your own clean kitchen put any not protected ruu_signed.nbh in the folder /Tools/RomSaved.
Click in the kitchen on the button "Dump nbh/nb/payload" and a new dump of the kitchen will be created in the folder /dump with all the folders like /Ext, /Oem, /Sys, /Rom from the extracted ruu_signed.nbh in it.
Then add any build xip and sys in the /Rom and /Sys folder and make your own build rom with the OS you want

Use this as your base kitchen and copy the 21231 or 21232 folders /Rom and /Sys from the kitchen I posted, in your base kichen and start building your rom

When you do not check the xip,oem and sys fields Under Hide in the top left corner of the kitchen Ervius says you can rebuild your rom.
I tried but it didn't worked for me
Sorry wrong answer from my side
Ervius did made a version were you could check a field "unprotect" but it worked not out the wright way so he took it back.
The fields I mentioned above you can use when you build your own rom and you don't want to make any changes to this parts, you can hide them and so use this parts as they are before.

Ok that doesn't seem to work for me either
Any chance you would re-release this kitchen, with your sys, xip etc?

Problem...just did a test. Build rom using the "Real 6.5 AKU" option, my HD just stuck at smart mobility screen. While not choosing 6.5 AKU option, rom is good to boot, but the 1st boot screen is WM 6.1, then it comes a WM6.5 screen. Phone running a bit sluggish, and system settings like Device Information, G-Sensor, TouchFlo, cannot be launched. I am on HardSPL 1.56. Anyone having the same problem?

Hello
I had exactly the same problem.Everything was sluggish,no SD card was shown some apps didnt work like the ones you mentioned.
I had to use a tool called recmod on the browsing folders. As soon as I did this my next rom build was super fast and speedy with no sluggish performance at all.
My SD card was shown correctly and the apps that wouldnt work now work OK.
---
I then decided to make my own Kitchen using the 1.57 Base instead. Ported the new SYS and XIP in and my rom is working first go.
Sweet.

That's because your the XIP doesn't contain a "native 6.5" nk.exe (kernel) and it can't handle as many modules as a real 6.5 kernel would. Therefore, you can only check that box on a Touch Pro ROM for now.
As you can check in this thread from ervius http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469420 the man behind this kitchen many problems are solved here.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469420 post 839 you can read the whole story.
The blackstone kernel can't handle as many modules as the native kernel of the ralph (which is where I assume you got that latest 6.5 release).
So what you have to do is "flatten" some of these modules. In other words, you have to turn them back into regular files. You can do that with recmod.exe found in the \tools folder. I would start with all the files in browsing, browsingcore and browsing IE. You coudl also not include "myphone" or "skybxo" and "windows live" which has a crapload of modules. If it boots without including those, then you're good. Just turn them all into files

hey people.
I've rooted my wildfire with cyanogenrom 6.1 and i want to try some new themes.
The problem is that every theme i find for cyanogen dont work on 6.1 i have only found one, and its the prototype/pink theme. iIs there a thread for a list of themes or something?
Also, when i install the themes, should i do it in recovery with the theme renamed to update.zip? or should i use theme injector?
And i've downloaded theme injector but i dont really know how to use it because im supposed to get a new rom named "themed.romname.zip" right? i get 2 files one called rom and the other one theme
if i get all that working, do i have to wipe/restore to use the new theme?

Hi there,
till today, i used a DHD rom from rafpigna with revolution theme. Now, i flashed imilka RAM incredible (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=963521) with new sense version nad i am wondering now, if i can get the revolution theme here as well. I allready found it in the incredible section http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736487
but now, i dont know, how to convert it. I allready recognized, that the files in theme-zip-file are placed in a wrong folger hierarchy, but when i tried to use the same hierarchy as my actual rom (sd-ext) and pack it as zip (winrar), it wont install. Is it that simple just to change the hierarchy or do i need something else? How may i repack it to an installable zipfile after?
Thanks a lot,
cmoe
