Description
What does this kitchen do that others don't? You should ask yourself what the other kitchens do that this one doesn't because it literally does everything: importing the ROM directly from the EXE updater, detecting all the informations to rebuild the ROMs from the ROM file itself (no more messy BAT/CMD to edit to get things working), sorting the packages with the best EXT packages conversion engine available (no more EXT packages with weird names or out of place), building ROMs for different languages in the same pass picking all the correct windows mobile packages (EA/NonEA/AH/CS/Transcriber/Uniscribe/Fonts) to use, directly installing packages on the devices without having to flash each time (package installer), automatically recmodding of packages (without touching any of the original files) to allow cooking windows mobile 6.5 ROMs using older kernels, automatic manila CFC compression to save space and improve speed (and supporting latest manila builds where CFCGui has issues) and much, much more while keeping all the user interface well organized and being extremely easy to use. Start the kitchen, import a stock ROM and go! Give it a try and find out yourself how it lives up the hype or if still unconvinced scroll down to see how much simple yet complete the kitchen is by looking at the screenshots.
Features
The kitchen has the most streamlined and self-explanatory UI you can find, it can natively import and rebuild ROMs for all the devices in the supported list without having to mess with any batch/cmd files, it shows detailed informations about every Windows Mobile package and warn about conflicts and unmet dependencies, it can build multilanguage ROMs in the same pass by automatically choosing all the right localization packages required for each language, it can import windows mobile builds of any kind, convert OEM packages/CABS/HTC Hotfixes directly to EXT packages, can automatically recmod/UPX and natively compress/patch manila manila files with CFC, it automatically detects older kernels and suggests all the right packages to recmod to get the ROM working, it checks the ROM integrity while building to avoid many common user mistakes, has a lot of tweaks directly selectable with just a click from the kitchen interface, it has the most advanced search system available and much more.
Supported devices
HTC: Artemis, Athena, Blackstone, Diamond, Elf, Gene, HD Mini, Herald, Hermes, Iolite, Jade, Kaiser, Leo, Mega, Nike, Opal, Polaris, Pharos, Quartz, Raphael, Rhodium, Sedna, Titan, Topaz, Trinity, Vogue, Whitestone (CDMA variants of all phones are supported as well)
Palm: Treo Pro
Sony-Ericsson: Xperia X1 (HTC Kovsky)
Samsung: i900/i910 (Omnia) (delete the giisr.dll in the OEMXIPKernel folder or the ROM won't boot)
Asus: P565 (XDA Zest) (even thought not officially on the list the kitchen can import the NB0 ROM extracted from the ABI file with p835abisplit2)
Other devices, with caveats: as long as you have tools to convert between NB and your phone format the kitchen should work fine unless platformrebuilder doesn't support your device (I.E. it crashes). If platformrebuilder DOES NOT support your device you can still put a dummy NK.exe from another device to stop platformrebuilder from crashing (be sure the NK version (6.1/6.5) is the same) and insert your own crafted XIP.bin (there's a setting in Advanced Tweaks to use a custom xip file).

DISCLAIMER: This software is provided "as is" and I don't take any responsibility for any damage caused to phones or anything else. I added all sorts of integrity checks I could think of to prevent the generation of invalid ROM files and so far none of the thousands of users who downloaded the kitchen reported invalid ROM files but just like when flashing any cooked ROM don't forget that there is always the risk that the phone may end up bricked (due to defective usb controllers, defective cables, defective phone memory, wrong radio file, software interfering with the flashing tools, power outages, etc).
System requirements
Microsoft .NET 2.0 (.NET 3.0 and 3.5 are 2.0 based so those work as well), already preinstalled on most computers, the kitchen won't start without it so it's easy to find out if it's missing
The following three system requirements also are preinstalled on most computers; the kitchen will warn you if they are needed so don't worry installing them unless required:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 runtime, required by xidump during the importing process
Visual Studio 2003 (7.1) Runtime Libraries, required by platformrebuilder to solve the "cereg400.dll cannot be loaded" error message, required by XIDump to solve the "Failed to init decompression!" error message and required by IMGFSFromDump to solve the "Unable to load compression DLL!" error message. Copy those libraries in the Resources\Tools folder and if that still doesn't work in the system32 subfolder of your windows folder (the right subfolder for 64bit systems is syswow64)
XmlLite Update Package required to solve the "Unable to load LibNB.dll" errors (only for Windows XP SP2)

Using OsKitchen Zero
What you need to know first
The first thing you need to know is that Windows Mobile is not like a desktop operating system: you can't take a ROM from another phone and flash it on a different phone model because Windows Mobile relies on an extremely specific kernel and drivers that are compiled by the manufacturer for each device model. The Windows Mobile ROM contains only the Windows folder - yes, that's right, the ROM is just the plain Windows folder with NO subfolders - while every other folder (Windows\Start Menu, Program Files, My Documents and also Start Menu links etc.) is generated when the ROM boots the first time.
Every official Windows Mobile ROM is composed of packages. Microsoft and device makers create those packages to split windows mobile and the additional software into separated components. The real "Windows Mobile" code, interchangeable between phones, is stored in packages commonly called SYS packages, while everything the manufacturer added (the drivers and the additional applications for customization) are called the OEM packages. The EXT packages are "fake" packages that the kitchen uses to overcome the limitations of standard packages (for example EXT packages are often used to build multilanguage packages without having to create a single additional package for each language).
The Windows Mobile package structure is very simple. SYS and OEM packages are identical in structure and can only contain:
A DSM file (a file that contains some package informations, for example what other packages it require or what files it contains, most kitchens usually ignore this)
A RGU file (a registry file containing the registry entries associated with the packages)
Other files or modules that compose the package: the modules are folders that usually have file-like names (meaning they have an extension) and are a different way to store executable and DLL files on the ROM.
Note: A SYS/OEM package cannot have any subdirectory with the exception of modules directories.
EXT packages - that as already said are "fake" packages that are converted to the Windows Mobile package format by the kitchen - have a different layout: everything goes into a "files" folder except the registry files (app.reg), dsm files, initflashfiles entry files (.dat) and there can be subfolders with a LCID (language-ID) code as name (a LCID is a string composed of four HEXadecimal numbers identifying a language, e.g. 0409 for US English, 040C for Spanish, etc.) to store language-specific files in the same structure (.dsm and .reg in another "files" subfolder, like for the main folder).
EXT packages are the main way custom packages or packages from other devices are distributed on websites and forums. Recent HTC ROMs contains additional informations that allow kitchens to automatically convert OEM packages to the more user-friendly EXT packages: this allows to quickly remove applications just by disabling the package; other ROMs instead have everything stored in a single package (usually OEMMisc) and require more work to remove original applications.
The only important thing you still need to know is how the rest of the filesystem structure (Program Files, My Documents, Start Menu, etc.) is created during the first boot. All the system folders are generated and populated during the first boot because, as wrote before, the ROM contains only the Windows folder. Windows Mobile has two facilities for the first-boot (hard-reset) initialization: INITFLASHFILES.DAT, a text file that is usually in the OEM_Lang folder and that only allows creating folders and copying files (Documents folders, default pictures, and most start menu entries are usually added this way) and .PROVXML files that are some XML files that can do other advanced operations (like setting registry keys, certificates, phone settings).
Usually anything you can perform with PROVXML files, that unfortunately are difficult to edit and require a large knowledge of the format, can also be easily performed using initflashfiles and registry files. You can use the app.dat and app.reg files inside EXT packages (or initflashfiles.txt and RGU files in OEM packages) to add entries to both the initflashfiles file and to the registry: the kitchen will use them properly during the building process adding the app.dat entries to initflashfiles.txt and the reg entries to the final registry (the ROM boots with a precompiled registry HV file but you'll usually never have to mess with that when using a kitchen).
Manufacturers also use some advanced proprietary post-install tools to install custom cabs, apply themes and operator configurations (e.g. AutoRun, RunCC). Those rely on TXT configuration (*config.txt) files and can cause trouble (error messages about missing files during the first boot) when removing packages or files from packages that those config file point to if you don't update them.
When you want to upgrade a Windows Mobile Build the changes in the start menu are usually so many that it's REALLY recommended to start over with a new fresh initflashfiles.txt for that windows mobile build (you can find one for each language in the Da_G's rollup threads). Since in the official ROMs the start menu entries are all crammed into the initflashfiles.txt file (the app.dat exists only in the "fake" EXT packages) you will have to either take the time to create app.dat files for each package or to copy back all the initflashfiles entries for OEM/EXT applications back after you put the new initflashfiles for the windows mobile build you changed. The kitchen will try to move the config.txt and initflashfiles entries inside the correct packages while the ROM is imported to make SYS upgrades easier.
Now that you know the basics you can proceed to the first step...
Preparing the kitchen (Importing the Device ROM file)
1. Download osKitchen Zero and unpack the ZIP archive
2. Find a ROM update file for your device: the kitchen can import the EXE from all HTC and some Samsung updaters or alternatively the raw ROM file (the main used extensions: .NBH,.BIN and .NB are supported)
3. Open osKitchen Zero and the Import ROM Wizard will open
4. Select the device you want to work on from the drop-down list, you can actually write any device name because the list is just for reference to make sure people understand that the kitchen has been tested only with those devices
5. Select the ROM update file
6. Click NEXT
Building your first ROM to make sure everything works
At this point the main kitchen window will open. Since you imported a ROM all the "Project Settings" options will only have one choice, go on and select the only available choice for all the fields (device model, device profile, windows mobile build, language) and clicking Yes in case the kitchen asks you to automatically apply recommended changes should be enough to build a bootable and working ROM. The only setting that has more than one choice is the Compression setting that if you want to have the most available space to add your programs should be set to "LZX", if you want to use another compression first make sure that your phone will be able to flash a bigger ROM file.
Now you can go ahead and build your first ROM by clicking the "Start building button": the kitchen will work for a while, then tell you that the building process has been completed and ask you if you want to open the Output ROM folder; you can then answer yes, take the ROM file that has been generated and flash it, making sure it's the right format for your phone.
NOTE: don't try importing a ROM made for other phones different than the one you want to flash because the kitchen will rebuild the ROM for the device you imported and not any other. If you flash a ROM made for another device you risk bricking your device.
Once the ROM works (if it's a supported device it should work fine on the first try, if it doesn't please report the issue here so we can help fixing it) you can start working on the ROM. So that's it, you're ready to go. If you read the "What you need to know first" you will probably already have an idea of where to start for whatever change you want to do.
Moving from Ervius Visual Kitchen to osKitchen
Open osKitchen and import the latest ROM for your device
Replace the OEM packages
Locate the folder oskitchen created in your device (it's in the Sources folder) and delete all the packages in the "OEM Packages" folder
Open the OEM folder in the Ervius Kitchen folder, locate the folder of your device and copy&paste all the OEM packages that are inside the Common and the LCID folder (0409 for english, etc.) into a folder with any name you want inside the osKitchen "OEM Packages" folder (where you deleted them). The .VM folder can be ignored.
Replace the EXT packages
Locate the folder oskitchen created in your device (it's in the Sources folder) and delete all the packages in the "EXT Packages" folder
Open the EXT folder in the Ervius Kitchen folder, locate the folder of your device and copy&paste all the folders that are inside the Common (usually empty) and the Windows Mobile Build subfolder (it's a 5-digit number) in the osKitchen "EXT Packages" folder (where you deleted them).
Replace the OEMXIPKernel
Locate the folder oskitchen created in your device (it's in the Sources folder), go in the Profiles subfolder and then in its "default" subfolder, you'll find a folder named OEMXIPKernel, delete it.
Open the ROM folder in the Ervius Kitchen folder, locate the folder of your device, open the Windows Mobile Build subfolder (it's a 5-digit number) and then copy the OEMXIPKernel folder in the osKitchen "Profile\default" subfolder (where you deleted it).
Import the Windows Mobile Build
Locate the oskitchen Sources folder, open the "Windows Mobile Builds" subfolde and delete any folder in there.
Create a new folder with the number of the windows mobile build present in ervius kitchen (5-digit number) and create three subfolders inside: Common, All and a LCID one for each language (0409 for english, etc)
Open the ROM folder in the Ervius Kitchen folder, locate the folder named "Shared", open its Windows Mobile Build subfolder (it's a 5-digit number) and copy the MSXIPKernel folder in the osKitchen Windows Mobile Build "Common" folder you created earlier.
Open the SYS folder in the Ervius Kitchen folder, locate the Windows Mobile Build subfolder (it's a 5-digit number) and proceed as following:
Everything in the "Common" subfolders of the folders that start with DPI_ goes in the "All" folder you created in the osKitchen Windows Mobile Build folder.
Everything in the LCID (0409 for english, etc) subfolders of the folders that start with DPI_ and of the SHARED folder goes in the LCID (0409 for english, etc) folder you created in the osKitchen Windows Mobile Build folder.
Everything in the "Common" subfolder of the "SHARED" folder goes in the "Common" folder you created in the osKitchen Windows Mobile Build folder.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I share packages between devices?
Create a folder named "Common" inside the "Sources" folder and put your packages (grouped in folders like standard device packages) in the "EXT Packages" and "OEM Packages" folders
Why is the final ROM file bigger or the total and available storage space lower than when using another kitchen?
It shouldn't. The other kitchens probably come with LZX compression selected as default while instead you told osKitchen to use XPR or None compression. You can also save additional space by using the ImplantXIP building method that removes the ULDR and some other wasted space.
How do I speed up the ROM generation process?
The kitchen needs to copy a lot of data and this may be a problem on computers where the hard-drive performance is low (i.e. laptops); antiviruses, firewalls and other applications may also interfere with the process speed therefore it's suggested to keep them off while the building process to save time. The kitchen allows setting another drive as a temporary folder to speed up the ROM generation and you can use a RAM drive (if you have enough RAM) or another hard-drive to improve the process speed.
How do I translate the kitchen?
When you start the kitchen for the first time if a translation file isn't found it will be created in "Resources\Localization" with the name matching your locale code (en-US.lng for american english, fr-FR.lng for french, it-IT.lng for italian, etc.): open that file with a text editor and translate all the text that comes after the "|||" separator (the text on the left of the separator shouldn't be touched, it's used both for reference and to identify the lines by the kitchen). Remember to post on this thread the translated files if you want them included in the official releases.
How do I reduce the space used by "Temporary OS.nb"?
It's suggested not to because the file will be needed in the next kitchen versions with the internal libnb NB dumping engine that will analyze the file, generate a new OS Structure.xml and delete it for good. The kitchen creates its own reduced files and keeps them in the Cache folder: if you really want to reduce the space used by the kitchen you can take the reduced file and replace the Temporary OS.nb with it.
How do I upgrade from an older kitchen version?
Simply delete oskitchen.exe and the Resources folder from your previous kitchen folder and put the new ones included in the archive or just unpack the archive overwriting the files. If you were using a version previous to 1.26 you will have to reimport a ROM and replace the imported packages with old ones (SYS/OEM/EXT/OEMXIPKernel (with nk.exe added inside) and remember to look at how the packages are structured). If you upgrade from 1.30 or below to 1.31 you may have to move your OEM Packages in a group subfolder because now the OEM packages are grouped like the EXT packages.

Help wanted!
1. Kitchen translation
Translators for the kitchens are needed! The kitchen is now completely localizable and will generate a translation template in the Resources\Localization folder when it's started up the first time: that file can be easily edited to translate all the text of the kitchen (also include an about entry for credits) and the kitchen will validate it and keep it updated every time it's launched organizing the entries that are missing or not found. If somebody has some spare time to help me translate the kitchen in other languages please attach a translated lng file to a post so I can include it in the kitchen archive.
2. Informations about the WM6.5.X packages required for each language
In order to improve the automatic localized packages selection I need to know which of the following packages:
Code:
BronzeEA BronzeNonEA BronzeAH | CommonEA CommonNonEA | SYSTEM_DEFAULT_FONTS COMPLEXSCRIPT_FONTS | gb18030 | Riched20 Riched20_CS | SipAR | Transcriber UNISCRIBE | Webview Webview_CS
are needed for each of the following languages:
Code:
0402 BRG Bulgarian (Bulgary)
0404 CHT Chinese Traditional
0405 CSY Czech (Ceská republika)
0408 ELL Greek (Ellas)
0411 JPN Japanese
0412 KOR Korean
0415 PLK Polish (Polska)
0419 RUS Russian
041B SVK Slovak" (Slovensko)
041D SVD Swedish (Sverige)
041F TUR Turkish (Türkiye)
0424 SVN Slovenian (Slovenija)
0804 CHS Chinese Simplified
081A SPB Serbian (Latin)
If anybody knows the right packages needed for one (or hopefully more) of those languages please let me know.

I uploaded 28223 SYS/XIP files, if you want other builds tell me.
@AirXtreme The kitchen is great and I like it way better than Ervius' VK, but I do have some small questions though. Since the split from the original osKitchen things have been a little vague, this is what I understand of it.
OndraSter developed the kitchens core code and you developed the new gui. Both trees still exist and both trees are 'updated' to RC3, but the version number in the .exe still says RC2.7.
Second, what is the latest version? Would it be possible to include build date and changelog in the first post, so it's easy to follow the updates to the kitchen? I know it's a lot to ask, but it would help a lot.
For the rest, great kitchen!

It's because my sources are from 2.7 and didn't update the titlebar.

It was already up but with the wrong name (28223), now names are fixed.
Awesome, thank you that clears it I guess. Just forgive my stupidity... Downloading the ... latest ... version now (and updating my current version).

@Airxtreme
The version in 1st post supports Iolite?
I didn't see it in supported devices list.

Yes, I think I added its device file.
I'll download now and test, thanks.
EDIT
I just checked and I allready have this version(Os kitchen 1.4 RC2.7)
and I have successfully build an nbh with this version, I just not flash it yet.
So, it's supported.
Okay,
I just download the New ATT Shipped ROM from HTC and I was going to give this kitchen a try.
I extracted the files from the shipped ROM.
When I started the kitchen, it asked me to point to the RUU file. I selected the RUU_signed.nbh that I had just extracted and I get the message "There was no os.nb present i this file! Can't continue"
What am I doing wrong?

NEW XPH COMPRESSION METHOD FROM WP7 MANGO
Since 1.2.153 we have possibility to use xph compression from wp7 mango (patched by ultrashot).
only usable on armv7 devices!! don't use xph on older arm devices! it won't work.
if you have a armv7 device and want to try xph->ultrashot's patched mango cecompr.dll thread
If someone wants to donate and help the project, take a look at the original thread on asusmobile.ru and the thread on mobileunderground.info
Many thanks to those, who helped to test osbuilder:
Alexx~, AndrewSh, greench, Lost_Angel, Vladimir1973
Special thanks to yad for the important and necessary information on relocation.
ENORMOUS thanks to alexx~ for many ideas and concepts, for THAT NOT VALUED! aid during the testing, and it is simple for the human support from the beginning also to the end of writing program.

Basic purpose of osbuilder
-assembling flat dump from the packets
-assembling IMGFS
-assembling ROM-File (for supported devices)
-extract/dump ROM-File (for supported devices)
OSBuilder can build NB0, NB and NBH files and for supported devices it can change rom version, date and/or some other data.
Also many other functions are included (Manila other language exclusion for example), which can be useful during creation and assembling of dump and ROM.
Basic possibilities
1. The group of packets (4 types of groups, the level of the nesting of groups is theoretically not limited, packets they are grouped by simple haul) and mapping packets and groups in the form of the tree
2. Convenient contextual menu for the work with the packets.
3. Selection of language for the piercing (co-existence of packets for the different languages)
4. Possibility to introduce detailed description for the packets and the groups (with the selection of packet or group description it will be automatically mapped into specially [otvedennom] for this window)
5. Import of configuration from the files of option.xml and their subsequent removal.
6. Retention of the configuration on silence and of any quantity of the configurations
7. Editing of dsm, rgu, initflashfiles, provxml of packet directly from the program
8. Possibility of the connection of external editors for dsm, rgu, initflashfiles, provxml
9. The survey of the folder of packet directly from the program (on silence conductor is used, but the connection of another file- manager is also possible)
10. Editing of boot.rgu, packages.sof, packages.cif, defaultcerts.dat, oem.cer directly from the program.
11. Survey and the editing of the order of assembling the list (it edits packages.sof)
12. The preliminary survey of the list, which must come out after assembling with the indication as and how often changed each parameter, such as file of rgu made change and in what line of the file of rgu this parameter is contained.
13. The preliminary survey of the file of initflashfiles.dat, which must come out after assembling.
14. Removal of files from modules and imageinfo.txt
15. Sufficiently flexible tuning of the parameters of assembling.
16. Possibility of the call of external programs from the menu.
17. Automatic forming or correction .VM and .ROM according to the data from the template or the file XIP
18. Built-in mechanism of readdressing the modules (Reloc) of the received flat dump.
19. Assembling the file of division IMGFS 20. Assembling file ROM - size of nb0 (payload)
program-window:
Contextual menu of the packet Built-in editor OF DSM (title)
the built-in editor OF DSM (modules and files)
the built-in editor OF DSM (dependence) information about the module Menu of additional tools
the editor of packages.sof (cif) Preliminary survey of list cleaning the modules Readdressing modules (Reloc) Tuning (parameters of assembling)
Program (assembling the files of payload NBH) is successfully tested with following HTC-devices:
HTC blueAngel
HTC touch 2 (Mega)
HTC touch of 3450 & 3452 (Elf of & Elfin)
HTC touch Of diamond
HTC touch HD
HTC touch diamond 2
HTC max 4G HTC Of iolite
HTC HD2
HTC HD mini
HTC kovsky (SE X1)
HTC WhitestoneW
If you have precise information about the special features of a certain new device model (structure of divisions and FLASH of regions, the signs of the search for date and version into nk.exe, and also other special features, for example, necessary whether to prescribe somewhere into nk.exe the sizes of rom, region etc, then the support of this can be added into osbuilder.
As to gather the dump without the template i tried to make the process of editing and assembling far more convenient and more visual. the result is osbuilder.
If you have ideas for improvements, write them down here and barin will take a look at them.

TIPS & FUTURE CHANGELOG (web translation)
TIPS:
packages.sof/cif
i found it less complicated to re-build this lists myself than re-order the existing ones.
if you want to edit existing one:
-go to editor (packages.sof and cif same procedure)
-press "remove all missed" button
-mark all new packets you added on the right side
-place "cursor" on bottom of left side
-add packets from right side on bottom of left side with "move to packages.sof" button
if you want to re-order yourself, i am using this order currently (htc hd2 512mb):
-msxipkernel
-msxipkernelltk
-oemxipkernel
-langdb
-wincenls_xxx
-metadata (according sys version)
-oemdrivershigh
-os (according sys version)
-adobe flash (sys) (notice: make sure browsing is after browsingcore)
-....
-....(all sys packages)
-EXT/sys_fwupdate_mini (see tutorial videos)

OSBuilder V 1.4.234 (22.11.2012)
Code:
1. Internal processing algorithm of XIP packages is changed (NK, SLDR)
2. Configuration menu item "Group language packs" is added. In the packages view tree (for packages selecting) the package group LANG is created and language packs are grouped into subgroups by codes (eg 0419, 040C, etc.) and placed in the LANG group.

Code:
1. "Copy path to clipboard" item is added to Package context menu.
2. Files with nbh, nb, esco, nb0, payload, ffu extensions are associated with Dump Tool. Warning! Dump Tool works only with FFU WP7 files. All attempts to open FFU WP8 files will return error.
3. For WP7 second generation devices: logo file generator is added to Tools/Built-In.
4. Added ability (Additional tools) to view the policy.xml files (like provxml files - processing order and editing)
5. Added context menu of the kitchen root folder path (lower left corner of the main window) – possibility to open in a file manager or the command line, also possibility to copy the path to the clipboard
6. DSM Editor: added ability to set flags Boot hive and Allow Downgrade. Also added the opportunity to set the flags DIFF and DEL for FileEntry
7. In Tools/Built-In: added Cab Builder, allowing to create Cab file from the folder with files and to sign it with the certificate.
8. In Settings: changed an option to automatically include 0409 packages to rom. Now it's 0409/0809
9. A hell of internal changes in routines of processing and assembling
OSBuilder V 1.4.209 (19.05.2012)
Code:
1. Minor improvements in registry parser
2. Minor improvements in WMSTORE and NBH generators
OSBuilder V 1.4.206 (21.04.2012)
Code:
1. Dump tool supports esco files completely. You don't need to extract boot.img from esco files youself. Just open original esco file in Dump tool.
2. Minor improvements in Complex RGU
OS Builder V1.4.205 (16.04.2012)
Code:
1. New settings form
2. More responsive UI
3. WMSTORE rom format support.
4. Significantly updated D000FF support. Thanks, Andim! !!!Be VERY careful with maximum ROM size!!!
5. Automatic o32_dataptr fixing - important for system updates
6. WP7 DSM support improved. New module size calculation subroutine.
7. WP7 page pool changing support. (!) You have to keep original not patched NK, otherwise pool won't be changed during building.
8. Package file browser performance improved.
9. Simple algorithm against ROMs with hexed headers added. No need to use such protections anymore.
10. Language packages sorting function added to CIF/SOF editor.
11. RGU: Now OSB ignores most of errors OEMs and MS got used to.
12. SLDR certs edit button.
OS Builder V1.3.199 FULL (09.12.2011)
Code:
1. Removed NBH dialogue, which earlier could be called during the ROM building (correspondent checkbox and timer are removed from settings)
2. Context menus allowing moving packages are added to the Packages.sof / cif Editor.
3. The possibility to drop packets (drag and drop) is added to the Packages.sof / cif Editor. Drag and drop mode button switch is in the toolbar (see tips). In drug-n-drop mode packets multiple files selection is unavailable, you can drag and drop the package from the right side to the left or move the package to the left.
4. The ability to dump the IMGFS section file is added in Dump Tool (for example - one extracted from the ROM imgfs.bin)
5. HTC NBH Extractor tool is added to the built-in utilities. Use it to extract sections (nb files) from NBH file. See menu Utilities-> Built-in (Menu Tools-> Built-in)
6. The ability to display and handle package flags Reserved, Uldr / Sldr, Regular, etc. is added to DSM Editor.
7. The ability to extract SLDR1/SLDR2 packages from template to ROM \ SLDR folder is added (See additional. Tools-> Templates)
8. The ability to automatically rebuild SLDR and add custom certificate to its dat files is implemented. SLDR can be rebuilt either from template or from packages in your ROM \ SLDR folder.
9. The ability to save the module as a file MNGE is added in the ModuleInfo (see Toolbar ModuleInfo). You must specify the Vbase module address with which it is stored in MNGE in the dialog box before saving it.
10. The ability to apply a DIFFBIN patch is added to the ModuleInfo (see Toolbar ModuleInfo). Before patching you must specify the address of the module Vbase for applying the patch in the dialog box.
11. The ability to write a file in MNGE format is added in FileInfo (file is implicitly converted to a module and then stored in MNGE format). Original will stay unchanged, if you don’t specify Replace the original file in Save File dialogue.
12. Added the ability to build the file NB (D000FF) with sections written in the DIRECT_MAPPING form. This process uses only the template, so the base NB file is not needed. This method improves ROM performance. I want to warn you that updates (cab) in this case will setup slower, but thanks god – we don’t have them every day. The corresponding checkbox can be found in ROM files and Formats settings.
13. Added the ability to upgrade the kitchen packages directly from cab files (see Additional Tools). You can update all the packages except Reserved. While upgrading first packages versions will be verified the and in case of successful validation updates will be permitted. In any case, it is recommended to do kitchen Backup before upgrading. If the updates contain Canonical packages, which just added to the kitchen but do not replace existing packages, then after the update it is recommended to check packages .sof / cif
New tutorial video about pakages.sof/cif editing can be found in the first post
OS Builder V1.3.189 FULL (08.11.2011)
Code:
1. For WP7 devices: added the ability to build the LOGO partition from custom BMP, JPG or PNG files, and to substitute original LOGO partition of ROM (in the D000FF container ).
To enable Custom Logo - go Settings/Build Dump and ROM and toggle the appropriate checkbox. Also specify custom image file(s) you are going to use in LOGO. Pictures should have a resolution 480x800.
2. Fixed a bug that could occasionally appear when porting / rebuilding NK WP7 - post [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19149336&postcount=50"]http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...6&postcount=50[/URL]
OS Builder V1.3.187 FULL (03.11.2011) - supports WP7 ROM building
Code:
1. Fixed issue with deleting a parameter defined in boot.rgu, if the removing directive was stored in other packages - the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=564
The second step to full WP7 support
2. Relocation engine is totally redesigned. (Hats off to Ultrashot for valuable help with WP7 modules Z .reloc sections)
3. Added possibility of porting/rebuilding XIP (NK) and the assembling IMGFS partition file for Windows Phone 7 with real registry recompiling and relocations according to WP7memory model (tested on HTC HD2, HTC HD7 and HTC Mozart. Credit for tests goes to Feropont and HD2Owner)
I want to warn that the registry files have to be checked by registry preview, because there is a hell of syntax errors in the original registry. Frankly, it seems (IMHO) that first the registry was generated and then some comments for dumb and mistakes were added.
Registry Preview will define incorrect lines to help you to fix that. The most common errors are:
- Parameter name without the quotes
- The comments are not marked with a semicolon or marked with colon.
- HEX type values end with point (the last or the only parameter line)
- The value MULTI_SZ contains comments between the lines parameter
- Existence of Directives for conditional compilation IF ... END (it's not a mistake, but currently these directives are not processed, so you should label them as a comment)
4. The dsm-editor has now the feature to set/clear Z-flags for modules.
Warning! This flag is used for WP7 XIP modules only if the RW section of a module must be located within the boundaries of RAMStart-RAMFree (nk.exe, kernel.dll, kitl_noplat.dll and similar)
5. For WP7 - Added ability to edit the file MsDefaultcerts.dat (see Additional Tools)
6. For WP7- Added ability to edit files CoreOS.dat and initobj.dat (see Additional Tools)
7. Added ability to automatically insert a certificate which will sign files while assembling DefaultCerts.dat and MsDefaultCerts.dat (for WP7) - see the settings in Build Dump and ROM. The original files stay untouched.
8. XIP Port settings - added the list of additional MS packages (for WP7). When porting WP7 XIP, the packages specified in this list will be replaced with donor packages.
At the moment, we can safely add the following packages to this list:
BaseDrivers_NK
CCFGSVC
GFX_NK
KFPCRT
Watson_Core
WinCENLS
9. In Configuration and packages tab of Setting - added the option "Always include 0409packages." If your WP7kitchen allows the language selection, it is recommended to use this option enabled to include English-language packages by default to your ROM, otherwise there is risk to get non-bootable ROM.
10. Added - the ability to build NB files (! For the moment only D000FF container !, NB assembling for the new _wmstore structure devices is not supported yet) and NBH files for WP7
To build NB you should have the original NB and should define the way to it in Build ROM settings, for example ".\NB\OS.nb". Unfortunately, to get rid of the original NB is not yet possible, but the work is in process. Hats off to AnDim for help and information provided. NBH build configuration settings are similar to the previous version, except that the CID tab can contain multiple values (each value in a separate line)
Warning! If you plan to use for cooking WP7 dump obtained by earlier versions of OSBuilder, I would strongly recommend you to dump again, and to copy the new ROM template \ ROM.tpl to your kitchen. The new template will contain additional service information, which was not recorded in earlier versions of OSBuilder
11. OSBuilder is fully backward compatible with WM6.x kitchens, (it was a big deal btw, but it was implemented). When you open the kitchen OSBuilder automatically detects the required mode WM6/WP7.
This compatibility will remain for the future, but no new features for WM kitchens will be added. OSBuilder WM Kitchens Development is terminated due to the termination of WM6.5.x development from MS side.
Thanks again to the team (AndrewSh, Feropont, Vladimir1973) - for the support, for the tests, for your work!
Special thanks to HD2Owner for enthusiasm and his titanic work in testing WP7mode.
Thanks a lot to AnDim for his tenderness and important information provided.
Sincerely,
Barin and Ultrashot
OS Builder V1.3.163 FULL (29.09.2011) - supports WP7 ROM dumping
Code:
1. The first step to full WP7 rom assembling support - Added ability to dump HTC WP7 ROM (either with the FLPART structure, or with _wmstore structure - like Eternity or Omega roms).
Advanced Dump Tool also supports extracting sections, packages, modules and files from WP7 (HTC) ROM file.
WARNING! DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ASSEMBLE WP7 ROM WITH OSBuilder OR TO USE TPL Builder TO CREATE A WP7 TEMPLATE!!!
Special thanks to: AnDim, AndrewSh, Ultrashot, xb0xmod (xda)
CHANGELOG (web translation)
OS Builder V1.2.157 FULL (20.09.2011)
Code:
1. Added possibility to convert files to modules for WP7 files
2. To FileInfo menu - added possibility to convert file to module at a place (replacing file by the module or saving module to any folder/disk and leaving the file untouched).
3. Added possibility to select separate packages in XIP (drag and drop into the tree to select the package). This feature is recommended in case if XIP is assembled from packages in your ROM folder, or the packages from ROM folder are used as your OEM XIP
4. Added possibility to compress separate XIP objects. That feature reduces the amount of Physical Space and thus it can free-up some RAM. To specify that you want to compress an object, you must set up Flag C (full file or module compression) or Flag R (compression of all sections of module except those containing code) in DSM Rebuilder/Files and Modules tab.
Setting the Flag C for the filesys.exe module – works without any problems
Setting up C flag to the other modules can cause un-bootable ROM.
Example for LEO (tested on several devices):
Do not even touch dlls marked with Flag K
Code:
----------MSXIPKernel----------
For all files - Flag С
Modules:
coredll,dll - Flag R
device.exe - don’t touch
filesys.exe - Flag C
imgfs.dll - don’t touch
initvmmap.exe - don’t touch
regenum.dll - don’t touch
the rest of dll - Flag R
----------OEMXIPKernel----------
For all files - Flag С
Modules:
nk.exe - don’t you even think about touching it!!!!!!!!!!
cecompr.dll - don’t touch
QCBPM.dll - don’t touch
rpc_pmem_client.dll - don’t touch
wce_pmem.dll - don’t touch
the rest of dll - Flag R
----------WinCENLS_WWE----------
wince.nls - Flag С
With that above mentioned settings and squeezing nk RW sections in RAM – about 0,5 Mb of Program Memory (RAM) was added.
Changelog for OS Builder V1.2.153 FULL (15.09.2011) - now with XPH support
Code:
1. While registry preview or rom-cooking: if reg settings are not tied to a key (after removing the key directives), a comprehended syntax error indicating the line is displayed
2. Reloc engine is modified – now Reloc and Recmod is supported for WP7 Modules (REVERSMOD – still under development) for all new fixup types (3 - IMAGE_REL_BASED_HIGHLOW, 5 - IMAGE_REL_BASED_ARM_MOV32A and 7 - IMAGE_REL_BASED_ARM_MOV32T)
3. Added support for XPH compression - see the settings in Build Dump and ROM.
! ATTENTION!
To enable XPH compression – you would also replace cecompr.dll for that library in XIP.
It’s cecompr.dll ported from Mango WP7.1. Guy in charge – ultrashot (who doubts?) Thanx to him for fixing ordinals in the import table for WM6.5 compatibility.
Warning! This library contains the ARM v7 instructions, so it will only work on devices that support these instructions ( particularly on devices with a processor Snapdragon - like HTC HD2)
OS Builder V1.2.148 FULL (04.09.2011):
Code:
1. IMGFS assembling engine now supports paths and object names in UNICODE. (Hats off to ultrashot)
2. Several internal fixes (not visible from UI but important)
OS Builder V1.2.143 FULL (28.08.2011):
Code:
1. The item ZeroLength is added to UL partition drop-down menu (Settings\ Buid Dump and Rom) - ULDR partition is physically removed, but the record about it remains in the Partition Table (SectorsBefore = 0; SectorsCount = 0). In my opinion this is the most viable option for the removal of ULDR. (Here "my opinion" means the opinion of Barin but I would say that this feature removes a lot of bugs - especially if you build so called "empty" roms).
2. The option "Remove flag IMAGE_SCN_COMPRESSED" is added to Advanced IMGFS compression options. This option helps to avoid the idle invocation of the function CEDecompres and thus speeds up the loading of modules.
3. The check-box “Group modules at the beginning of IMGFS partition" is now available in Settings/Build Dump and Rom. Don’t use this option cooking for 6.0-6.1 nk devices and old devices. Good for Leo and other stuff like that. (feature is checked by Barin - for Asus P750, ultrashot - for X1, me - for Asus P525)
OS Builder V1.2.140 FULL (21.08.2011):
Code:
1. The random bug occurred sometimes while cleaning code from resource files - fixed
2. The code of several dlls and executables contains the useless invocation of CePerf.dll (module containing functions of monitoring and logging performance) - needed for debugging purposes only. This test fails to generate results if CEPerf.dll - dependent logging library - is missing. As far as we operate with ready MS Build - we don't need it. But this useless invocation spoils system time and resources. (The idea and cleaning algorithm - by ultrashot)
So now it's possible either to completely remove CEPerf.dll invocation from all files and modules containing it, or do it on the fly while assembling rom (leaving the original files untouched).
3. Earlier it was possible to manually add BuildImgfsGroupModules parameter to osb file to regularize modules and files in IMGFS. Now it's a default feature - while assembling IMGFS first all modules are processed, than all files...
4. When "Merge all Packages to one" option is toggled - registry assembling is highly optimized.
OS Builder V1.2.133 FULL (11.08.2011):
Code:
1. The ability to digitally sign cab and tsk files while assembling the rom (as it was for executable files in previous versions) is added. You can add cab or tsk files to the “sign files” list to sign files either manually or using the context menu of the package.
Not only target file itself is signed, but also all executable files inside it. The originals (source files) stay untouched.
2. The tool Cab/Tsk Signer is added to built-in utilities. With it you can sign cab and/or tsk files.
You can select either a single file or all files in a folder. It is possible to create a cab file to install the certificate, as well as the opportunity to add a certificate in _setup.xml of the cab file.
3. The item ‘Quick registry assembling” is removed from Settings/Build DUMP and Rom if packages are merged. Now this option is hidden but selected by default. If Merge All Packages to One checkbox is toggled - the rapid registry assembling algorithm will be executed. If this checkbox is cleared – registry assembling will be usual (old-fashioned).
4. The ability to sort / clean rgu files is added. Provides sorting/cleaning either the separate package rgu (via the package context menu), or all rgu files in the kitchen with a possibility to make a choice between EXT, OEM, ROM and SYS or all of them (Additional Tools-> Cleanup-> Sort / clean files rgu).
While sorting / cleaning process: double values will be removed from rgu (in case of different values of the same parameter the last value will be saved, as during the regular registry assembling), the removal directives for keys and values will be moved to the beginning of the file. Keys and values are sorted alphabetically.
If the key and value with OEM version (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ OEM \ MASD) is present, it will be moved to the end of the file.
IMO optimized by this option rgu files are much more readable.
Remember that when sorting/cleaning rgu all comments will be deleted!
5. While installation OSBuilder sets association with hv files. You can open it for viewing just double-clicking it in Windows Explorer.
6. Registry comparer is added to Tools/Built-in. It can compare the contents of rgu and hv files, export to rgu either separate keys, or the difference obtained when comparing files.
OS Builder V1.2.124 FULL (28.07.2011):
Code:
1. Fixed some minor issues in Complex RGU
2. Added new features in IMGFS assembling - completely redesigned (actually written from scratch) utility for IMGFS assembling (Hats off to ultrashot for that work) .
In the configuration menu: added item "Advanced IMGFS compression options" (with a list of files / modules and additional compression options for sections in modules). Modules / files included in the list – will appear non-compressed in IMGFS. There is also a possibility to search and add all graphic manila files to that list (with signature QTC1)
Building the list - it’s possible to use templates, such as *.png, *.jpg. If someone wants to build a fully uncompressed section, just type *.* in the list.
Additional options of the modules sections compressing allow you not to compress the separate module sections containing code and / or RW sections of all modules, regardless whether they are in the list or not.
It’s also possible to control the compression of files/ modules setting flags U, R and S.
R flag can be used only for the modules. Flags U and C can be used for both modules and files. Flags in dsm have a higher priority than the list of Advanced compression options.
If you set U flag for a file or module in dsm editor, that file or the module will not be compressed in IMGFS not depending upon whether it is in the list or not.
If you set R flag for a module in dsm editor, then only the resource section of this module will be compressed in IMGFS.
If you set C flag for a file or module in dsm editor, the file or module is fully compressed in IMGFS not depending upon whether it is in the list or not.
Setting all flags U, R and C for the same object is not allowed. The built-in dsm editor will return warning.
The flag C has the highest priority among the flags.
3. In the configuration menu: added item " ?????? Demand paging ??? ???????." – sorrowfully it’s not correctly translated into English – will be fixed later. That means: The prohibition of "Demand paging" feature for modules.
The flag IMAGE_SCN_MEM_NOT_PAGED will be set up to the headers of modules in that list and also it will be set up to the modules with M flag in dsm
Wildcards such as *. exe are allowed in the list.
4. The item "Compress XIP even if it is not compressed in the ROM template." is added to Settings/Build Dump and Rom (reduces rom size for 1,6 Mb)
OS Builder V1.2.116 FULL (27.06.2011):
Full version - to the masses
Code:
1. In the Personal Data Generator in Wi-Fi setup added WPA2 and WPA2-PSK
2. In add. configuration property added to the item "Remove the attribute R with non-executable files." Attribute is removed directly into the headlines IMGFS (the originals stay untouched). The idea belongs to the distinguished Ultrashot.
Those who are transferred from the LE version to the FULL, be sure to read the post http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=336183 # 336 183
OS Builder V1.2.111 (08.06.2011):
Code:
1. Added scroll bar of the window of exceptions (the settings dsm) - Post http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=332069 # 332069
2. In the Personal Data Generator element in the list is opened for editing, not only the context menu, but doubleclick - post http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=332069 # 332069
3. To Dr.Freezer icon_smile - In the section [PortEngine] option has been added XIPPortKeepMSXIPDsm (default = False). When set to True XIP'a assembly is similar to version 1.2.1981 and earlier.
FULL VERSION:
4. When you open the list to set the flag in the configuration menu SHARED warning is issued only once per session
OS Builder V1.2.107 (05.03.2011):
Code:
1. Fixed a glitch with the cleaning of temporary folders in the Temp - post http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=331389 # 331389
2. Improved Personal data generator. If any field in the tab "Owner" does not fill these fields in the registry is not set to zero - a post http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=331437 # 331437
3. The path to the configuration file is transferred into an environment variable _CFGFILE (if the file exists)
4. In the configuration file in section [OSBuilder] option has been added WriteLogsToLOGFolder. If it is set to True, the log files will be written in assembly LOG folder in the root of the kitchen. The folder will be created automatically.
At the beginning of the assembly, this folder will be automatically cleared to logic from different assemblies are not mixed together. I consider this feature useful if enabled Auto clear folder TEMP.
5. Accelerated preprocessing (in the case of rewriting a large number of modules / files)
6. Fixed a throwback to boot.rgu - post http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=331579 # 331579
IMHO at this point has long been unnecessary, because the packets from XIP'a be learned all at once.
7. In the setting of the assembly item is removed, "an error message in case of duplication of files and modules for rewriting. By paragraphs "Override automatic ..." and "Confirmation".
8. Hung on the F5 key update, but at the start of the assembly F7
FULL VERSION:
9. Improved Complex RGU. Now you can view the remote key (Screenshot)
By doubleclick file is opened or rgu provxml, which removes the key. By pressing a button at the end of the line will state the key at the time of removal.
Switch to normal or deleted keys is carried out in the menu "View -> Remote Keys"
10. Fixed problem with saving the list of modules unmovable.
11. In the package for recmod allowed any modules, regardless of the settings
12. In Module Info / File Info added ability to set / unset the flag for the SHARED section RW. Author of ideas - respectable Ultrashot. All actions at your own risk.
13. In the configuration menu added to the list to set the flag for RW SHARED sections and modules. In assembling all files in / modules list will be flagged for RW SHARED sections. The originals are not touched.
14. In setting the item was added to "sign the files from the list of SHARE RW". No comments.
During the test items 12-13 special thanks Alexx ~, AndrewSh, Ultrashot, Vladimir 1973

OS Builder V1.2.89 (31.12.2010):
Code:
1. From tuning of assembling XIP' and are removed the points of the removal of the files of dsm and other files of rgu. The files of dsm and rgu (besides boot_ms.rgu and boot_oem.rgu) are moved away depending on the state of the button of the association of packets into one in. If it is selected to unite packets into one, then with XIP' and dsm and rgu from it will be removed. You remember that if you will use XIP with completely [udalennymi] of dsm in other kitchens, which do not consider the absence of dsm in XIP' e, then in the window Of about (information about the system) in you can be absent version OS CE!
2. In the window with the list of modules L is added the contextual menu, which makes it possible to open module or file of dsm, in which is contained the record about the module. Also with the aid of the contextual menu it is possible directly to establish or to remove flag L into dsm for the selected module
3. On the request is added the possibility of cleaning the resource modules/of files directly in the kitchen, but not only during the assembling. You be attentive! Confirmation will be inquired only one time, the then selected originals will be purified.
4. Is corrected omission into DumpTool - post [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=325559#325559[/url]
5. In the form of cleaning the files of manila is added contextual menu (Select of all, Invert of selection)
6. In the form cleaning the files of manila is reflected only those languages, whose files are not located in the list of the exceptions of configuration.
7. In the form of the list of exceptions for the configuration is added the button of " To remove from the list the files of *manila"
8. In the self-correction of dsm it completed the correction of versions. Are corrected both the versions of packet and its interface and the versions of dependences. Are corrected all packets in SYS, ROM \ OF XIP, and also OEM_*, OEMDrivers*, LangDb. In the packets, which relate to OEM the number of [bilda] is set equalequal to zero. [Defoltnye] data for the version are formed in the dependence on the tuning DSM (on silence they are taken from the packet OS)
9. Now and into [pablik] of the version: Quotation: In Dump Of tool is added the additional tool, which makes it possible to extract divisions, packets, modules and files directly from the file ROM ([Skrinshot]1 Of [skrinshot]2 Of [skrinshot]3) COMPLETE VERSION:
10. In addition to point 3 is added the possibility of the signature of the purified files by certificate (point of contextual menu)
11. Is added the possibility of the auto-signature of the files of resources, purified during the assembling. See tuning the assembling dump and ROM
OS Builder V1.2.81 (06.12.2010):
Code:
Attention! Beginning from the current version Of oSBuilder it is re-aimed on .NET Of framework 4.0. See large [kra]c[nye] letters in the cap
1. the problem, connected with the list REVERSMOD - post [url]http://www.mobileunderground.info/showthread.php?t=12348&p=60619#post60619[/url]
2. the problem, connected with the record of the files of tuning the configuration Of oSBuilder' and into the dump - post [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=323581#323581[/url]
3. Is corrected omission into ComplexRGU (parameters Of default and @ they are processed as one parameter. Earlier in one key was possible mapping @ and Default as the different parameters). With the search for the parameter Of default in the line of search can be introduced both Default and @
4. The editing of dsm of packet is additionally hung to the key F3
5. Rewrote in its own way RECMOD (earlier it was used " classic"). Now modules analogous (SkyBox) [rekmodyatsya] without the problems.
6. The search for the lingual files of Manila (for the exception or the removal) is substantially accelerated
7. In ModuleInfo is added the information about the imported libraries (given they are taken on the basis ImportDirectoryTable) and a quantity of the exported functions
8. Is added the possibility of retrieval for line and binary data in the files and the modules . Binary data can be searched for including on the pattern - the insignificant byte is designated by two signs of a question. The window of search is caused from the panel of tools (window of log' a) for the search in all files/modules, or from the contextual menu of packet for the search only in the selected packet.
9. In Dump Of tool with the discovery of file ROM the information about the packets is read now without the preliminary extraction of flat dump, that healthily economizes the time. In the panel of tools it is possible to select, what precisely dump must be obtained, flat, or immediately decomposed on the packets.
10. In Dump Of tool is added the possibility of the extraction of sections NB from the file NBH, if for the dump was selected file NBH
11. All tuning Of dumpTool are written in the list, but not into the file of osb
12. It built in the library of msvcr71.dll [installyator] (it is established automatically in the same folder, as OSBuilder)
13. In the additional tools added the search for modules L modules search for in all packets. As results of search show the modules, which are located in slot 0 the modules, for which is established the flag L into dsm. [Dablklik] on the module causes ModuleInfo
14. Wrote the component PE Of file Of info it derives information about the usable file (Headers, Sections, DataImageDirectories, etc.)
15. In the menu of configuration is added the list of resource files and modules, which must be cleaned during the assembling (it will be left only the section of.rsrc). The principle of cleaning is examined respected Of ultrashot' ohm in the separate theme Files and modules can be added in the list both by hand and the aids of additional tools (cleaning -> To remove the code from the resource files). In this case will be automatically brought out the list of all mui of the modules/of files. Addition/allotment from the list is produced with the aid of the contextual menu. Certainly before adding module or file in the list, should be focused attention, does export functions the selected module or file and that this for the functions. On double-click it is opened BY PE Of file Of info or Module Of info (depending on object). Cleaning occurs in the process of assembling. The originals in this case remain unchanged
16. Everyone of " " functions (cleaning modules, cleaning Manila and cleaning resources) are now grouped in one point of the add. of tools - cleaning. COMPLETE VERSION:
17. In ModuleInfo is added the possibility of the reconstruction of file directly into the folder of module, or into the folder on the selection.
18. In ModuleInfo is added the possibility of the survey of the tables of import and of export
19. In PE Of file Of info there is a possibility of the survey of the tables of the import/of export by analogy from Module Of info
20. As results of search from the contextual menu it is possible to open the obtained file/module by analogy with the window of packet
21. In the contextual menu of packet is added the point of " To verify dependence on the files/of [moduley]". With its aid it is possible to verify the direct and inverse dependences of the usable files/modules of packet on the usable files/of the modules of other packets. In the left window the list of the usable files/of the modules of packet is shown. In the average window is shown the list of the files/of modules on which it depends the selected in the left window file/module. In right window showed the usable files/modules which they depend on the file/of the module, selected in the left window. 1 and 2 Dependences are built EXCLUSIVELY! on the basis the tables of import.
22. In Dump Of tool is added the additional tool, which makes it possible to extract divisions, packets, modules and files directly from the file ROM
23. In addition to mui (point 15) into the window of the files/of modules are derived dll, that import not more 2nd functions and exporting is not more than 1. if the import of [idet] from mscoree.dll (.NET CF), then this dll in the list is not derived.
24. To add/to remove file or module in the list for the cleaning is possible with the aid of the contextual menu in the window of packet ([Skrinshot]) Are added in the list or removed from the list they can be only dll and mui.
OS Builder V1.2.64 (26.10.2010):
Code:
1. Is corrected the problem, which appeared when the size of the logic unit of [ravern] to the size of sector - post [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=322363#322363[/url]
2. With the creation of template from the file ROM (including with the dump), in which is present initialized FAT32[b] now always they are considered tuning FAT32
OS Builder V1.2.62 (25.10.2010):
Code:
1. In cmd-file, which is carried out at the end of assembling XIP' and the variable environments are transferred
2. In the menu of configuration is added the point of " To rename packets on the names of [papok]" - in the configuration will be renamed the grouped packets (files of dsm they do not change) - post [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=321278#321278[/url]
3. In the contextual menu of packet is added the point of " To appropriate to packet the name of [papki]" - it works by analogy with point 2, only for the single packet. The dialogue of confirmation in this case is not derived - renaming occurs immediately.
4. Is added the support O2 Of xda Of zinc (theoretically)
5. Trifle, but… In the basic ravine after [reloka] is derived the information about the vacant place in slot 0
6. Are added several parameters into the file of osb, which are concerned forestalling reading of packets (possibly Scanning can someone strain, or to someone it is not simply necessary with the presence Of core i7 and OF RAID 0 of SCSI or SAS of disks). In the section [Of oSBuilder.Trees] Of nodesEnableStartupScan - it solves either forbids forestalling reading, NodesScanModules - it solves or it forbids forestalling reading of modules, NodesScanFiles - it solves or forbids forestalling reading of files.
7. Wrote its dumper IMGFS (at long last it got rid of ImgfsToDump). If in someone was the problem, described in the post [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=321427#321427[/url], then it must disappear (i have this problem it was not observed).
8. [Pofikseny] any trifles
9. [Izmenen] the cursor of assembling - files now in TEMP are not copied (with exception of those, which must be signed or reconstructed from the modules) Attributes are observed (about the attribute R now it is possible not to think generally), original files they do not change. Also [izmenen] the sequence of files and modules in IMGFS (for help the enormous thanks of airextreme)
OS Builder V1.2.50 (05.10.2010):
Code:
1. With preview of the list of rgu and provxml they are checked against the exceptions. If the file of rgu or provxml is present in the list of exceptions, then data from it will not be imported for [predprosmotra] - post [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=319740#319740[/url]
2. Is solved problem with UL in the assembled by hand template - posts [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=313397#313397[/url] [url]http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?p=313554#313554[/url]
3. Are removed the tuning, which relate to .VM and .ROM - now .VM and .ROM automatically are corrected or are created on the basis given XIP
4. Is [optimirovan] the algorithm of assembling the file of division IMGFS and files ROM NB0 (payload), nb and nbh
5. Is added the possibility ofredirection of folder TEMP - see tuning - > Packets and configuration ([Skrinshot]). For the folder TEMP are permitted ONLY absolute ways! [Perenapravlenie] of folder TEMP to RamDisk can substantially accelerate the process of assembling. For the optimization of the use Of ramdisk is added [chekboks]. If it is noted, then in the process of assembling temporary components ROM will be automatically moved away. Both these tuning are written in the list, but not into the file of osb!
6. For the use in [komandnikakh] is added the variable of the environment of _TEMPDIR (complete way to the folder TEMP)
7. Is added the possibility of " fast" assembling list - see tuning dump and ROM. Significant acceleration is perceptible with the large number of packets (but respectively the files of dsm and rgu). The parameter works only when selected the association of packets into one (in the tuning or in the panel of the tools of builder). If the rapid assembling of list is selected, then it is better to first ascertain that the files of list do not contain errors, for example to cause the preliminary survey of list.

Code:
the first Public version
HD2Owner, thank you very much for publishing and support.
Glad to see OSBuilder thread on XDA-DEVS
I have been using OSBuilder since its initial release and have successfully cooked ROMs for Topaz. This is a fantastic kitchen. Thanks to Barin and others who have supported him in the development.
This is, by far, the most advanced visual kitchen I have used
Great work indeed!
Has anyone tried this kitchen with Omnia II roms? There is one primitive kitchen only for this device on modaco forum.

i asked barin and this is what he told me:
it's the only way to try. OsBuilder can build NB0 for any device and then you need conversion tools to convert nb0 to omnia format.
if there is any old kitchen for omnia you can try to get conversion tools from it. i'm sure that every kitchen builds partitioned nb0 and then uses device specific tools to make special format rom file.
edit:
tutorial videos and more links from mobileunderground thread (by indiagroove) added.
edit2:
changelog added (old versions where missing). re-ordered changelog to save space for future changelogs.

Thank you for your response,
well, the Omnia II can be flashed with nb0 files, that isn't the problem. But OmniaII's stock rom file is a .MST with multilingual support, and you can only extract english part directly from this file. So for non-english roms there is a tool that can create a dump directly from device, but it creates a .BIN file. As you said, if I convert this .bin file to .nb0, will I be able to make the dump with OSBuilder?
I'm a newbie cooker, and Omnia II dump is different to dump of HTC devices(even Omnia I too), for this reason I make the first question to anybody who have an Omnia II and can help me with possible specific configurations of the kitchen with this device.
Sorry for my poor english!!
osbuilder should work with nb0, nb and nbh.
you should give it a try..

Well, finally I can make the dump, but when I try to open the build to work with it, I obtain this error and OSBuilder closes.
If os Builder create better rom from PlateformeRebuilder, i will test it
I'm waiting for EXT packages support

afaik, osbuilder does not support ext-format for various (good) reasons.
you have to convert ext to oem packages if you are adjusting a previous prb kitchen for osbuilder.
if you dump the rom with osbuilder it's not needed (osbuilder creates oem pkg's).
there are ext to oem conversion tools out there.
ultrashot is working on a nice tool to do this (i already used it to convert my evk based kitchen).
I had been using EVK for over a year before I switched to os builder. I had close to a hundred EXT's that I had put together, and making the switch was daunting. I first decide to play around with OS Kitchen (easy switch), and found that it created dsm's for all of my EXT. Once I had the dsm's, it was very easy to convert my EXT's to OEM's, so that's why I switched over to OS Builder.
I want to try this kitchen, but it seems like I can't dump a stock ROM RUU in the kitchen? How can I extract the NBH file out of the RUU and dump it in the kitchen?

first extract the content of ruu...exe with winrar.
then switch to "mode-dump tool" in osbuilder (upper right) and chose file->open file->open your nbh->create packages
a new "dump" folder will be created (this is your kitchen folder, time to move and rename it)
then switch to "mode-os builder" (upper right) and chose file->open folder->select kitchen folder (previously created "dump" folder)
