I am trying to get the AT&T WM2003 final rom to work minus the audio clipping, I have got the latest Tmobile rom and compared all the sound related registry settings, and nothing appears to differ. However looking at the audio driver (wavedev.dll) the one from the AT&T rom is larger, which suggests this might be where the changes were made, as the Waveapi.dll is exactly the same size..
But my problem is that I don't run linux (and i'm not that familiar with it) so I can't build the Tmobile wavedev.dll into the AT&T rom.
I have tried editing the registry to point to a copy of the tmo driver (which obviously I had to rename) but it didn't work (I'm guessing becuase everything else is looking for the other file)
Could anyone build the Tmobile dll into the AT&T rom if I sent them the file ??
Cheers

I have tried having a go at creating a rom myself using a bootable Knoppix cd, but I can't get it to work correctly as all the settings in mkrom are for the special edition rom. And I'm not really sure what I'm doing :lol:
Could any of you guys that run the rom kitchens or anything hook me up ??
Cheers

Does anyone know how to cook own ROM? I've got Universal and there it's not so hard, mainly if U need only 2 add or remove several files (I'm not speaking about adding AKUs ....)
THX
btw. there must be a way (see pdamobiz) but i dont speak or read thai
For the trinity there is a HEX pack which unpacks the ROM, then you change the device id and country id and you rebuild the rom again. Anyone has additional info in this method?? Maybe is works for the Orbit/Artemis?
i found on buzzdev scooter's rom kitchen i'm gonna try that.
think we are in the right direction.
Scoter rom kitchen can extract the rom on an Orbit I believe...

Hi All
I see now we are getting quite a few custom ROM's from the likes of bepe, panosha and other.
Great Work Guys.
But i would also like to be able to build or a least edit a ROM to exactly meet my requirement. Like adding or removing certain CAB files and making reg edits.
Have been reading a lot of other threads on the site put none seem to deal directly with the Polaris.
So i was hoping some of you great cooks (grovel grovel grovel) would wight a description on how to take a nbh file and extract and edit the different nb parts and then rebuild back to a nbh file ready for flashing.
Thanks
polaris kitchen
sorry......wrong answer
I'd love that too! I want to mod an existing ROM and make it specific to my needs.
Will anyone be so kind and post a short guide how to do this? And make the topic sticky!
First, you can start with Kaiser's Kitchen...and at last, use Dark Simpson tool (htc room tool) to make nbh file (config add Polaris device in tool config)
Cheers,
ouioui
Good place to start is here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser ROM Kitchen Tutorial
Yep , good one, but everything is based on Kaiser.
I don't have a Polaris Radio, neither does the HTC Rom Tool allow to cook Polaris Rom's.
Any other ideas ? Or could someone help ?
Thanks a lot in advance
The Kaiser kitchen works fine and all you need to do with the Dark Simpson ROM tool is change the Model ID from KAIS***** to POLA*****
As always read the threads before you start cooking and make sure you have Hard SPL!!
Thanks
I've been reading all night ;-)
In the HTC Rom tool there is no Polar***** , strange, although I thought I downloaded the newest ini. I've read in another thread that I could use the Kaiser one as it was basically the same device, is that so ?
Other question though:
Talking about Hard-SPL- I've Hard-SPL'd mine , but do I need to include that one in the rom as well ? Like while using the HTC Rom Tool , in the SPL section ???
Second question, where can I find the radio.....nb ?
Thanks for your help, I appreciate that.
As I said set the ROM tool to Kaiser then change the Model ID to POLA***** and use as normal to create the nbh image.
As for Hard SPL... once you´ve flashed it that´s that, no need to flash it every time you change ROMs or radio...
id love to see the guide for polaris aswell.
and oem packages as well.
i did everything as it was sowen in kaiser guide, but i got an error on building system. have no idea why..
was saying that something is missing or path is icorrect smth like that
post here exact errr.U got.
here is htcrt.ini for polaris (only Polaris Option is active) simply rewrite htcrt.ini in folder with htcrt.EXE
It's not necessary to include Radio ROM when building? Right?
nope, its up 2 U what 2 include (SPL/Radio/OS/Splash)

Thanks for the guidance. The tutorial is great but fails to mention specifics if you are not cooking a Kaiser Rom. For example, does the baserom have to come from a shipped Rom? I was using the 3.02 Kaiser Rom as my baserom. Can you do that when cooking a Polaris rom? How do I get the RUU_signed.nbh out of any other Rom. I thought about using the WM6.1 19716 Rom but couldn't extract anything. (Probably stupid questions but cant find answers in the wiki). BTW, I was getting same errors about half-way through compiling process. If I try again today, I will record the errors and post. Again, thx for help.
sgreenwood99M me i have 19716 WM6.1 for cooking. U can Use some part of any ROM but U have to be sure exactly what. In general U can Use OEMpackages freely, but be aware with drivers, baseapps....(i have perfect CZECH 19199 WM6.1 but w/o working SMS)
Hi,
i've read through the Kaiser kitchen guide and it all seems to make sense however i'm not sure how much is relavent to the Polaris, for example the ingredients section talks about expanding the radio file and the rom files to folders, from the Kaiser files on rapidshare etc.
Do us Polaris users do these points too? or are there specific Polaris Radio and ROM files we use?
I have my base ROM file called RUU_signed.nbh and i've also managed to use pdocread to get the RAW files too, but just not sure where to go now?
All i want to do is remove a few cabs and add a few cabs and EXEs to my rom.
can anyone post comments on exactly which parts of the Kaiser kitchen guide need to be changed to use on a Polaris?
thanks.
dont need raw's. simply put *.NBH(polaris) to BaseRom folder. Run begin.cmd(or bat?) Choose option 1.
click......... then start cook.cmd(or bat)
Do we replace the KaiserCustomRUU and the BuildOS files with ones specific to Polaris? Thanks.
yes, take udK CustomRUU & replace kaiser one, u dont need to replace anything else(except htcrt.ini ||KAIS**** replace with POLA***). And of course Polaris' *nbh
Whenever I put a Polaris nbh in the BaseRom folder, the process gives me an error that it cannot find RUU_signed.nbh.
Hello!I`m a user of HTC S740 (ROSE) and i want to coock a new ROM for this device but need some help because I`m new in such stuff.So far I managed to extract the XIP and SYS from emulator image for WM6.5 provided by Microsoft,what I need now it`s to disassemble the ROM image of Excalibur ROM coocked by ookba and extract the additional tweaks and software that he used in his ROM but the problem is that I do know how..
After this I want to coock a new ROM using the SDK of the WM6.5.3 and add the extracted tweaks and software to the image but another problem is that ROSE uses bought portrait and landscape and the image is only portrait?How to add also the landscape to the image?So if its somewhere there that knows and could help me do this..I would quite appreciate this
Probably not the right place for this.
I try to cook a WM 6.5.x rom for my Mega. But When I try to install I've noticed that(picture). So Am I did something wrong? I used ROM_Mega_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1-28-479-4 for this as base and this
29007_XIP_HVGA_QVGA_VGA_WWQVGA_WWVGA_0409 for 6.5.x
Is this normal? Or What?
Whatever. I'm installing rom.
Well, It's sure now there is a problem with that. It stucks at 18% and don't installs.
Well, I guess this:
ROM_Mega_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1-28-479-4
is a keyword. You have the ROM version in the file name and it's actually lower than you currently have in device.
I think this number is stored in nk.exe (it's a part of XIP -> OEMXipKernel). I have no idea if this file should be changed when porting ROM to 6.5.x. Someone else must answer it.
Normally MSXIPKernel is included in build, so perhaps nk.exe must match it. I don't know.
I figure it out. When installing it says base builds version but when installed its becomes the name I put like Fattur's Rom v1.0
