Other ROM Kitchens? - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Greetings From Ireland,
Just wondering are there any other public ROM Kitchens floating around?
After reading a couple of interesting discussions on ROM Kitchen, I'd like to see what some people have done with it. Maybe adding some config options, other software, ability to add Boot Up Image, new ring tones in ROM etc...
Regards

i love you developer guys :)

hi ppl!
i just passed by to say a BIG THANK YOU.
now i have something else to play around with. *gg*
but to stay serious:
i just flashed my T-Mobile MDA from austria, and am now looking for a way to include auto config for GPRS ect for T-Mobile Austria.
any ideas? sorry i didn't read ALL the topics in every forum so maybe i missed it.
kind regards,
izeman
Download the 'mkrom' set of files and look in the operator directory. Create a working setup, extract the registry keys listed in the file for one of the other operators and put those in a file in the same way.
Adapt the (binary) operator index file and recompile the ROM.
We hope to make this easier in future, and we're working on some mass-import from a list of providers and settings we've got.
thanks for the speedy reply....
can i send my changes somewhere so they can be included in future versions? (to make things easier for those who might follow)

Yes please. This goes for everyone: If you make AutoConfig work for your operator, we'll include the provider registry settings in our next ROM.

ROM Cooking and User Customization (UC)

I came across this interesting and very usefull thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366337
Thanks to Sleuth255
User Customization (UC) extends initial customization to your SD card so you can load cabs and install XML files after a hard reset. This is very relevant to all of us who like to flash new ROMs at frequent intervals.
I was wondering if some of our chefs could look into adding the UC feature to their ROMs please.
I posted a similar request just hours before you. I am not a rom cooker so I don't know what kind of effort this entails on their part, but it would certainly be great for those of us that like to keep up with the latest roms but want to avoid the endless customizations that follow.
Hope your message is heard.

[Q] Been at this a week now and need some assistance - Cooking in latest Manila

I have been trying all week to get the latest (or any v2.5) Manila integrated into my ROM. I am using the latest osKitchen. There has been a lot of trial & error but here's what I have done so far:
Import latest HTC WWE ROM - 1.56
Rebuild this ROM just to prove it works
Replace 6.1 Kernel with 6.5 Kernel found on here
Import a newer Windows Mobile Build
Build ROM to test it works with stock OEM drivers/apps etc
Add my own preferred applications & settings etc and rebuild
At this point I now have a working ROM with the apps & settings I need, however it has the stock Manila (TouchFLO 3?) that I would like to replace. I have downloaded LOTS of manila packages and tried including them in the build whilst excluding the stock 'Manila v1.3.37395.2' but each time there is a problem. Typically the device boots OK but locks up during the first boot customisation sequence.
I am assuming (hoping?) other people have followed a similar procedure and hit the same issues? I was hoping for some pointers as to how I get past this hurdle
Thanks, Andy
Maybe you should ask in Chef Central forum?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=612

Been trawling through the Chef Central forum for a week...
There are lots of Manila threads but I can't find anything that matches my issue. Thought I'd try on the Native Blackstone forum
Only got the Blackstone last week - still have the Kaiser until I can get the ROM just as I want it. I'll update my signature
I can't believe that nobody has hit the same issues as me
The stock ROM that I imported simply doesn't have the correct packages or simplu cannot support the latest Manila so needs updating/replacing etc. I have searched and searched (and searched and searched...) but I am really struggling to find out what I need to add/remove/update from the stock ROM packages to get the latest Manila in my 6.5 ROM.
Anyone? Please?
i think you didnt search enough.
if you look to sticky thread there you can see a fully working kitchens.
i would say take a look at there.
Based to this kitchen you will learn more about the packs what you need to use manila 2.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=515824
and take a look at this thread You will learn more about manila
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584978
If you really cant find anything
I can upload mine kitchen which is working great
I did go to the dark side (iphone 4)
I have 42 memory usage after soft reset and it very stable
Its up to you do you want a kitchen which is made by yourself ( which is the best way to learn cooking) or...
cheers
Rambo
Thanks for that link Rambo. I honestly tried searching using different word combinations and could not find that thread
It has helped me somewhat however I am still struggling getting Manila 2.5 to work with osKitchen.
I have now resorted to using the whole of the HTC Leo EXT packages and then replacing/grafting in EXT packages from the original Blackstone dump. This is working but has various issues that need fixing.
I'll plod on....
Andy
it isnt that easy ha
if you need any help let us know.
or you can always ask questions in the chef central thread.
good luck

[Q] how to recook a cooked rom? Maybe its a stupid question...

Is it possible to take a cooked rom (Energy, Mozart etc. a.e. for htc topaz), load in a kitchen, remove apps that don't work, themes and so on and export as a new custom rom? Is there a specific kitchen to do that?
I'm a newbie with a legacy device (HTC Topaz) and see that the roms with updated packages and kernel are made by chefs that do not have the device for testing so there are a few bugs and old apps that have to be removed but these chefs are mass cookers, they have there lives and don't have time to stand behing theyr dishes, especially for those that differ from theyr native language.
My intentio was to load a Energy Rom in Italian with cht, remove all themes, unworking and useless apps (or to solve some bugs) etc.
Thanks
sb
This has been asked a billion times; you can dump a cooked rom with micro-kitchen, and re-cook it somewhat. You'll need to figure out how to set the kitchen up for your device, if you decide to use it. Da_G says that the kitchen will re-base modules without the reloc sections; others disagree-I've never done it myself. If you're just removing stuff, the kitchen should work fine, but you'll have to know what to remove. Someone will post shortly and say that you can't re-cook cooked roms. It isn't true. Gsleon3 has re-cooked roms, I guess mostly to lighten them up. Here's one of his threads.
hi
can any one help me with this?
