Call me stupid.... what's XIP?
XIP is kernel of OS.
You can see a version of XIP: Start->Settings->System->About
OS CE 5.2.20721 is current XIP.
To build ROM with new XIP you must: put "MSXIPKernel" folder to "SYS" folder. Then build you new ROM with new XIP.
For Example you can use Polaris Kitchen v1.3 - WM6.1 (Build 19214.1.0.4)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379559
for build ROM.
thanks....
20721 seems have Microsoft touch function
and 20721 XIP seems good , too.
now trying ^^
Brilliant cooked in and working fine
I am a total n00b so took a risk flashing but it went in and reports as 5.2.20721
Shayder,
no more need for your imgfs.bin and os.nb.payload like in the
XIP 20296 you posted?

German ROM to dump available?
Anyone has a recent (202..) GERMAN Polaris ROM which
is able to recook (with dsm, rgu correct header etc)?
Unfortunately all ROMs I tried (Glass 0.4, UDK R7 GER, bepe) which
are available cannot be dumped and/or repackaged
It's a real pity! Seems the only way is using WWE for getting
the advantages of the new builds....
ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!!!

To build ROM:
1) Put "OEM" and "SYS" folders to "Build" folder. (dont delete any existing files)
2) Run Rom.bat Then put "1" then "8" then "0"
3) When running "BuildOS" Put 'Play' button.
To Extract ROM:
1) Put "RUU_Signed.nbh" to "Extract" Folder
2) Run Rom.bat Then put "2"
3) When running "Package Tool", File->Open and put way "...\Extract\dump"

I cant help you. ((Glass 0.4, UDK R7 GER, bepe) they Specially so have made) You must find needed files in internet.
Good work my friend. Indeed a good help.
kindly post the os.nb.payload as you have posted in the other XIP.

"imgfs.bin" and "os.nb.payload"
First off let me say thankyou for putting this package together.
I have cooked a rom and it boots up fine so I have started to customize it. Run into a few problems that I am hoping someone will be able to fix.
Here goes
I have used the package creator to insert some cabs into the installation. 3 of my cabs went in fine the rest create errors when building the registry.
So I am looking for a way to auto run the cabs. When the OS loads it seems to run a UC application from 2 places.
config_operator.txt
config_PT.txt
These point to cabs in the \windows directory and are installed upon first running of the rom. Brilliant I though. I copied the cabs i wanted into the OEMAPPS folder. Now when the rom is flashed my cabs are 100% copied OK into the windows folder as I can see them and run them.
So I edited the config_operator.txt
CAB: \WINDOWS\googlemaps.cab
CAB: \WINDOWS\coreplayer.cab
CAB: \WINDOWS\3iepatch.cab
CAB: \WINDOWS\opera1938.cab
CAB: \WINDOWS\advancedconfig.cab
CAB: \WINDOWS\keyboard.CAB
EXEC:\WINDOWS\cusTSK.exe \WINDOWS\Htc.tsk
XML: \WINDOWS\Menu_Operation.xml
CAB: \WINDOWS\PP_AKv33-Defau
Now when I re-flashed and the OS boots and I can see it in the install run my cabs and it looks like they are installing. The last one restorepie.cab then resets the device.
Upone reset my cabs have not been installed even though it looked like they were. Why is this?
Also is there a switch I can put to delete the cab after install? something like
CAB: \WINDOWS\opera1938.cab -d
Thanks in advance.
I dont know. I cant help you with this. But i can help you with errors when building the registry.
in "*.rgu"
Usually errors such:
@=""Windows\\cecmd.exe" "%1""
You must correct to
@="Windows\\cecmd.exe %1"
errors in ""
Good luck

Shayder,
Trying to use your kitchen but got stuck on how to change the automatically splash screen already setup in the BAT file? I was looking for NB file so I could just change the path but didn't understand those files named polarishtcrtproj.....
Thanks a lot and also for sharing this stuff!

I can help? Just whot do you do?
Hello,
I want to cook my own ROM. After I read many many sites at this forum, I found a 'polaris kitchen 1.3' that seems to be good for me.
I want to use the original WM6.1 O2-ROM as base for my 'new' ROM.
My target is the original ROM without some progs (O2 specific) an also without tomtom, 'Erste Schritte' (First Steps) and opera.
I want to add MyMobiler, and some other cabs. Also, I want to make some registry corrections.
These steps I made:
1. Extract the Updatefile with 7Zip and got the neccassary file 'RUU_signed.nbh' as I understand correctly.
2. Extract the 'RUU_signed.nbh' with this command
Code:
NBHextract.exe RUU_signed.nbh
Now, I have these files
- '00_Unknown.nb', <== Radiofile (Thanx to ianl8888)
- '01_SPL.nb', <== ???
- '02_MainSplash.bmp', <== O2 BootSplashScreen Bitmap
- '02_MainSplash.nb' <== ???
- '03_OS.nb' <== OS file which we need to split
Question1: Do I need only the '03_OS.nb'? What do i need the other files for?
3. I used this command to split the nb-File '03_OS.nb'
Code:
NBSplit.exe -kaiser 03_OS.nb
I got this:
- '03_OS.nb.payload'
- '03_OS.nb.extra'
Question2: Is it OK to use the parameter -kaiser? Remember, I will create a orbit2/polaris ROM
Question3: What are this files for?
4. now I used this command
Code:
imgfsfromnb 03_OS.nb.payload imgfs.bin
to build the 'imgfs.bin' file
5. with the following command I've created a 'dump' folder
Code:
imgfstodump imgfs.bin
This dump folder include many subfolders and files
6. I start the package tool 'PKGTool.exe' an selected the dump-Folder
The output:
Code:
[Selected Path]

Question4: Everything OK till now?
7. Now I've selected 'tool' - 'build packages'
Inside the dump folder, I've only two subfolder 'SYS' and 'OEM'
Maybe this is the next step ... (Thanx to ianl8888)
8. Now we must dump the 'xip.bin' with this command:
Code:
RomMaster.exe 03_OS.nb.payload -w 5 -b 0x00310000 -x -o xip.bin
[The syntax recorded in the how-to page had left out the suffix "payload" ]
So I have a XIP.BIN about 3.3Mb which XIPPort.exe has dumped into \Out\Files & \Out\Modules
Question5: What to do next?
Hi,
that is exactly the same I wanna do. After you have the SYS and OEM folder the next would be to re-create the ROM folder for your kitchen. We need a new XIP. That is the point where I don't know how to continue. I have already tested to replace the original SYS and OEM with those versions I build via dumping the new O2 Germany ROM. But after trying to rebuild and flashing the ROM with the kitchen the ROM won't boot.
Therefore I asked the chefs at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2657634 to help me.
Hopefully we can take a step further.
Tom
I have already managed to build a new german rom based on the
O2 GER 3.13 released some days ago and I used the XIP 20743 from
Shayders thread to build. Had no errors in cooking but I did not
flash yet because of maybe wrong location of XIP files in the ROM.
But I have another problem with HTC ROM Tool when trying to cook
the radio 1.59.42.15 (or any other) in the ROM. The tool always states:
"The size of this file is greater than default. Do you want to assign this file?"
I said yes and it builds the rom but now I don't know if it would work
because of the warning. I tried different radio.nb files and all of them
are 17MB and all of them give the error in HTC ROM Tool when assigning
them... Is this normal?

I don't know how to proceed yet with the "re-building stage", but I think you are still 3 steps short of this, anyway:
we need the XIP.BIN file to use the XIPPORT.exe tool on for XIP Files\Modules. The XIP build no. I have extracted is 19965, but we are already at 20753 for the device-independent MS files
I do NOT yet know how to extract the XIP.BIN file for this. I have successfully extracted it from an Eten temp.dat file (nbh equivalent) but not for HTC ROM files.
So I think we need to do steps 7,8,9 (xip.bin, xipport, \out) yet. How to extract xip.bin ??
Then re-build with edits (whole new ball game)
Some ROM chefs (eg. Ervius, swtos, cs) are generous enough to help, I hope, as they have in the past.

OK, later edit:
I've figured out how to dump xip.bin
RomMaster.exe OS.nb.payload -w 5 -b 0x00310000 -x -o xip.bin
[The syntax recorded in the how-to page had left out the suffix "payload" ]
So I have a XIP.BIN about 3.3Mb which XIPPort.exe has dumped into \Out\Files & \Out\Modules
But now, when attempting "make pkgs", XIPPort.exe falls over with "could not load file or assembly" errors these tools are so prone to. A path problem (I think) that continually drives me up the wall. We need the "packages" from XIP.BIN to know which files are the OEM drivers etc specific to the Polaris.
So I'm at steps 7, 8 and 8.5 ... it's like pulling teeth
BTW, 00_unknown.nb is the radio file.

Thanks, I see that you provided a new XIP in packages
20753 in your new thread. So I decided to use this one with your kitchen and I would breakdown the
steps now with which I built my ROM. Could you
please confirm if I have done right?

3. Put the extracted SYS and OEM folder from
dumped and packaged ROM of you choice into the Build folder
of the Shayder Kitchen.
4. Put the extracted MSXIPKernel and MSXIPKernelLTK
folder from Shayders XIP 20753 into the SYS folder which
was before copied into the Build Folder.
5. Start ROM.bat in the kitchen
6. Select "1 - Build"
7. Select "1+2+3+4+5" in the next screen
8. Select "0" to let it run
9. Click the green button in the Build tool
10. Close Build tool when run ready
11. Wait to finish the nbh and enjoy!
I did so and got the ruu_signed.nbh file
ready to flash... think no need to XIPport etc.
but in fact I don't know exactly as I didn't flash my rom

I also did it this way. You're right, there is a ruu_signed.nbh after all that staff has finished. But the after flashing this ROM image to the orbit it won't boot. The splash screen is shown but nothing else happens.
I think this is caused by the XIP part.

1) Of course I'm not yet sure that this is the right direction. But I do know that if we want to upgrade the XIP build we have to sort the \OEM and \SYS "packages" from xip.bin. These directories contain OEM drivers specific to the device (here, Polaris)
Still cannot get XIPPort.exe to "make pkgs" although it works with an Eten X500 ROM
2) rommaster.exe is found (from my memory only) in any one of the Polaris or Kaiser kitchen files. It is a very old file, though - Nov 25, 2005. You can also find it in Shayder's kitchen on the front page of this sub-forum
Perhaps there's a later version of a "rommaster.exe" somewhere ?

If you are too unsure to test with flashing (I thought that was what HardSPL was for !!) then try to extract your own RUU_signed.nbh in full and see what you get.

later edit: I have XIPPort.exe "making pkgs" now. XIPPort needs to be in its own folder ( ?? )with the support dll's etc.
So now I'm at Step 9 (the unknown) with \OEM and \SYS "packages" for editing.
The base ROM I'm trying to edit is the recent release of the official HTC WM6.1 Polaris ROM. This ROM is not protected by "all-commands-to-one" etc and so is fully extractable and editable if I can figure out how.
I think the next step (likely 10 or 12 sub-steps in there) is to understand the DSM's, RGU's, HV boot files etc. There is a tool XIPAddrTools available on this sub-forum that I have some hope for in helping here
I am trying to do two things with this ROM:
1) replace the XIP device-independent files with an upgraded set (build 1995 to build 2073)
2) remove all the crap that HTC and other ROM cooks put into it - like Cube, Home, Office etc etc
In other words, I'm trying for a WM6.1, recent XIP build, very clean ROM
Maybe ...

I just tested without any modifications of XIP. I used the original XIP (os.nb.payload, imgfs.bin) delivered within the Kitchen. Only copied the SYS and OEM from the O2 ROM to the kitchen and tried to build a ROM. Result is a non booting ruu_signed.nbh.

My version attached. If someone wants to try...
It's a german light version of O2 3.13.207.0 ROM
without Cube, TTN, Opera, useless stuff.
With XIP 20743 cooked in as os.nb.payload with
Polaris Kitchen V1.3
No radio included. You will most likely have to flash
1.59.42.15 manually after installation of the rom.

If been testing around with this thread and this one and made a successful rom, some how the xip files needs to be extracted, 3,4 MB is little low, cause the one i got was 3.8 MB.
I used buildos+package_tools-2.7.exe to build my package and htcrt.exe to build the rom. (i change model from KAIS***** to POLA***** to get working and flash able rom)
I will experiment more cause i need to convert raw dump to original rom for warranty

Yes, the various Registry addresses change as the XIP build changes so we need to understand RGU's, DSM's etc. The uDk sticky is helpful
Because the kitchens require a "template" to re-build a ROM, I still believe that the most thorough method is to use the just-released WWE WM6.1 HTC ROM as this template. Extract it all, replace the XIP device-independent filesystem with a newer build, remove all the stuff you don't want from \OEM "packages" and re-compile.
This is struggle street maybe, but this jigsaw is a challenge.
I've downloaded a newer version from Shayder's kitchen (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427962). There is another os.nb.payload template. With this version of the kitchen I was able to produce a working ruu_signed.nbh with the SYS and OEM folder from the new German O2 ROM. Encouraged by this result I then tried to change the Kernel parts from XIP 20753 and replace NETCF2 with NETCF3.5 - Result: working ROM with NetCF3.5. Many thanks to all guys helping me especially those who have developed Kitchen's, Tools etc.
At this point I have OS version CE OS 5.2.20753 but the Build is still 19965.1.2.3. Therefore the next step should be replacing the SYS parts with its equivalents from a newer Build.
Questions about this:
1. Can I use a SYS folder from another (newer) ROM without modifications?
2. How to build a ROM with German localization? Shall I only copy the language specific folders from the original ROM to the SYS-part of the new ROM?
3. Are there some other stuff? What about Registry settings for different languages?
....
I read so many threads but I'm still not sure what to do next.
Thanks.

Yes, that's real progress.
BUT - list step-by-step exactly how you did it, please
This is the problem - many posts about being successful, very few listing the detail.
Hello everyone, put my old kitchen, a little 'restored.
IMPORTANT: To build a good rom, you 1st have to dump an original rom for your preferred device, to have all files needed to build it after (header.xml, splash.xml ecc...)
List of Features:
Check rom version for exchange for new payloads (tested on hd2 rom 3.14 and it worked!), some minor adjustments, the editor, RGU, app.ref etc ..., now always starts as an administrator.
to test it, dump an original rom and then have fun customizing!
New style, new tricks at runtime, new tools for dumping and building !!!!! (Libnb.dll!)
Fixed bugs on inclusion radio.nb and splash.nb !!!!!
Import into .\ext, old-style packages, OEMpack, EXTPack (and also from Cab files
in the context menu is also remodule package (from files to module!) and re-file package (from modules to files!); other bugs solved!
Rapi connection problem solved with device in activesync and remove ring tones, images by default!:
Feature on delete files (ringtones, images (wallpapers) and other images (avatars) from a folder in oem \ langdevice \ .....)
Features to all feedback packages, from kitchen and easily editable text file (packages_usefull_infos.txt) in the root of the kitchen.
Can also import "rebuild dumped roms", from DFT dumped, OSkitchen kitchens and RAW Dumped roms!
Support to run the cabs charged by hands at 1st boot after flash!
Save & restore all tweaks in all the tabs when save/load a rom!
Added info exchange Rom language and Rom on the first use of header.xml libnb.dll nbh file to create!
Added new feature to force the run provxmls in Rom
Now when a dump .NBH, the new build is imported, in your EVK in use!
.\TOOLS folder
Inside the folder .\tools, you will find a new folder: registry_tweaks. The .\registry_tweaks folder includes some sample files. Replace and/or add .REG and .PROVXML files, name the files properly and the .REG files will be added as registry entries, the .PROVXML will be renamed as ****. ZZZZ_ provxml, as files are added. provxml, precisely in the rom and run when you first start to customize the rom as you like
The kitche includes two context menus for adding new .REG or .PROVXML files, edit them or delete if unused one!
Also includes new versions of DSM_editor and implantxip (no fake virus info about, someone in previous version, not me, inserted automatic "admin execution" with a kind of utility, into my implantxip.exe!, and maybe that "trick", was detect as fake virus, now, with my original updated version of implantxip.exe, my kaspersky doesn't find anything!!!!!)
Note
DSM_editor and implantxip (no fake virus info about, someone in previous version, not me, inserted automatic "admin execution" with a kind of utility, into my implnatxip.exe!, and maybe that "trick", was detect as fake virus, now, with my original updated version of implantxip.exe, my kaspersky doesn't find anything!!!!!)
System Requirements.
.NET FRAMEWORK 4.0 to execute new version of visualkitchen and new tools inside (dsm_editor and implantxip!)
Version History
12.2.9: compatible with x64 system machines, was libnb.dll,not was dll, was my exe, only I had to force x86 execution, also on x64 machines, that version was only for x86 machine, now at runtime, it is recreated, if is x64, compatible version is putted into .\tools folder, else a x86 compatible version will be copyed into .\tools folder!!!
12.3.7: package creator added as optiona choice when wanna import a cab into packages!
12.3.7: Added option to turn tricks "reg" to be placed in rom that will be in a good provxml 'forced to be the last to be executed, overriding any settings from other taxes proxml !!!!!
12.3.7: when forced execution provxml, reg cab, the sequence is .PROVXML in Rom, .PROVXML uploaded by you, proxml derived from the reg trick and finally the cabs
12.3.7: added possibility to add and execute a .tsk file into ROM!!!
12.3.9: bug solved on provxml creation when found "delete regkey" or "delete regvalues"
12.4.3: bug solved on save and load roms, new icon for exe!
12.4.3: "reloaded" update pagepool options on new implantxip.exe
12.4.4: solved problems with implantxip value as default
12.4.5: inserted possibility to load, edit and delete mortscript scripts into rom to run (config.txt will be populated with selected scripts) at 1st boot!
12.4.8: when you choice a bmp to became a splash screen, the kitchen automatically check if the format and size is good, if not, automatically modifyes the image, makeing before a backup of it, and adjusts it according to the file "splash.xml"
(I suggest to redump an original rom for your device, becouse there are a lot of libnb.dll, and I've changed in times, so maybe splash.xml, could be different in format!)
12.5.0: updated package_creator, see and edit into \tools folder user_folders.txt to add your own modded folders into start menu for lnk files extracted by cab files; now, all manila-language files will be stored automatically into relative 04XX subfolders, so only real lang-manila files needed will be stored into rom, and before build, cfc_gui.exe will be executed to compress and patch manila, if you want, only have to click on "tools<>patch manila", on cfc_gui.....
see U!
12.5.2: new built of implantxip, and some little little improvements on erviuskitchen.exe!
12.5.3: Added Visual advices for packages that have to be recmode or reversemode!
12.5.6: re-file or re-module packages that you insert into comments like "remodule, or re-file! (only id relative poackage is enabled while build rom!)
solved little bug on packages colouring (same color on "false/true" packages (enabled/disabled!))
12.5.8: solved some trubbles with LZX Compression!
12.6.0: more compatibility with new xipporterex to change rom version on nk.exe into 3.14 TMOUS ROMS! and now recontruct better alla lang files/folders for manila!!!!
12.6.2: Full compatibility with all Language codecs to recontruct well all lang files/folders for manila, and also all MUIS files will be stored in relative language SubFolders!!!
12.6.3: only exe, now remove also all *.cpr files with resolution different thankn used by your device, and store all of them into :\moved\cpr_moved\namepackage\resolution\...

OLD visual multilang/multidevice/multibuild kitchen for last bepe rom-tools!! V1.8.2
Hi, this is a visual multilang kitchen based on last bepe's tools to build a rom.
Last Version: 1.8.1 aka 10.8.1 (1.8.1)
Date: 28.07.2009
Download Links: 1.8.1, 1.8.2
new_visualkitchen_v_1_8_1_only_exe_+_Tools_folder.rar 7MB
erviuskitchen_1_8_2_fixed.rar 523 KB
Latest version of Ervius Visual Kitchen tools. New visualkitchen with all dsm/rgu recreations/updater to have complete old_style roms ready to use .pkg updater!!!!! The KITCHEN has been updated to include logging; (see build_log.txt into root of kitchen after built a rom!!!)
Note: Also attached to this post as <filename>.RAR.ZIP. After download, remove (.ZIP) before UnRAR'ing.
Changes In This Release:
XIPPORTEREX:
Added compatibility with new 2.09 kn.exe to r/w correctly date/version on ROM!
Added capability to find version/release_date on new wm 6.5 nk.exe!!!
DUMP Process:
Now if dump a stocked rom, in EXT packages it leave relative dsm/rgu, create a global packages.ini (with all dsms infos inside!) and for each EXT Package, create "package.ini" file, with all infos about relative dsm,
All shadows, depepndencies, certificate needed in .\tools folder, it populate "dependencies" and "certificates" folder with all dsms and certs files found during dump process, used to insert/edit all dsms into rom with dsm_editor
OTHER button:
Provides for selection of ULDR reduction, PagePool sizing, disable Certificate
Verification, etc. Settings are stored in: ERVIUSKITCHEN.INI.
Editor:
Addresses issues when using "editor".
Compilation:
Solved bug on 6.5 reak aku roms
Addresses issues when searching structures and duplicate files during compilation.
Added possibility to change max number of modules in an hybrid ROM (nk.exe from 6.1 kernel and XIP From 6.5 kernel) the value is saved on that rom configuration, so every rom loaded has his max-modules value setted
Extraction:
Addresses issues when extracting contents of some device .NBH/.NB files.
Compatibility:
Addresses unsupported Language code (ex: 040C).
Added compatibility with old style rom (IMGFS & XIP).
All modules can be reallocked.
DSM processing; all dsm and rgu are updated/created -only with old_style roms creation! (required for cab.pkg updater support.)
In old style ROM mode; all is executed automatically, XIP porting is automated:***
- Correct realtive device's .VM must be copied to .\OEM\<devicename>\.VM
- Correct XIP.BIN must be copied to .\ROM\SHARED\<buildnum>\
Post-Download Instructions:
Extract the contents of kitchen archive to the root of your hard drive (ex: C:\XDA) to avoid path length errors.
Backup existing kitchen files. Files/Folders to backup are:
- Files in root of kitchen (ex: C:\XDA\My_Visual_Kitchen)
- .\TOOLS folder
Remove (delete) ERVIUSPACKAGES from TOOLS folder (ex: C:\XDA\My_Visual_Kitchen\TOOLS\ERVIUSPACKAGES).
Copy the contents of the extracted archive to the kitchen (ex: C:\XDA\My_Visual_Kitchen\) folder.

Implantxip.exe (Pagepool Patcher/changer!)
Download Link: implantxip.rar 166 KB
implanxip can works with:
all kind of payload file, and more:
if a payload has ULDR removed (ULDR part not present!), it can work on it and reallign well some bytes into MBR
you can also remove completelly the uldr section (you could save some more space into payload in this way! (be attenction: in some payloads this operation causes non-booting roms!!! make a backkup of original
payload before use: "-uldr tryremove parameter!!!)
for help about: in prompt command write: implantxip /h )

Excellent work as always ervius.
Grazie mille.
^.^
That might come in handy for some ppl.
For my part, I'm used to command line as my primary WS is linux based. As a matter of fact, i prefer it.
@Ervius: Do you have any experience in coding for unix/linux?
At some point, pof coded a htc-flasher kitchen, but it was mostly wrappers for the windows programs.
Most of the tools we use for ROM building have their source code available, so...
Anyways, I'm off.
A.
GREAT!!
I'm testing it in my kitchen just today. I'm looks fantastic. Thanks!!.
If now you can integrate your XIP porting tool then.....

this is a alpha version, and stucks on platformrebuilder.exe execution, , but when I have some time more maybe insert all inside, xipporterex and other tools of mine!
can you post it on rapidshare please, megaupload is a menace. thanks.
In any case this is a great work!!.
I've been checking folders structure and adapte it to Spanish (or another language) is really easy. I'm preparing a new ROM, but as soon as I post it in a Spanish site, I'm going to 'play' with this application and l'll inform you about troubles. Thanks !!
On the other hand (I know this is not the best post to speak about), Your active sync killer is not working fine in 2.xx ROMs. Are you preparing a new one? Do you have a solution?. Thank a lot in advance.
Kind regards!!!

you can adapt, but add other languages, near 0409\ and 0410 folders you can add 04xx\ or o8xx\ all you want, the kitchen at start recognizes how many into, and show all into combobox, you only have to choice in witch language want build the rom
for activesync killer, what you refer to, mine or the original by eliasweb???
bye!
I've detected this trouble in both. I've test them in several ROMS based on 'oficial' v.2.xx. I'm going to look for your post and follow this trouble there. Thanks.

this looks better and better. I dearly hope that it will come with some kind of manual.. anything... just to know what to press and which button does what...
Thanks!

visual kitchen version beta1 released at 1st post, and see all ROM\ structures.....
Hi ervius, thanks for your tool.
I was trying beta1.
I have a couple of questions:
i've tried to import a package (generated with package creator) , I browse to the folder containing it, but after the right-click-> import package, it doesn't appear in the list of the applications.
I see it has been copied to the EXT folder but nothing more.
Also importing a package resets all the choices I made on what packages to include/exclude
If you need more details just ask
Thanks
A.
very nice, I will test this this week, and see if i notice anything. once again thank you

bye!!!
P.S.: at first post "beta 2" is ready (some bugs solved!)
I finally found a way to overcome space issue that cause BuildIMGFS throw error when you put too many files in the ROM using captaintrip's kitchen
The repack used imgfsfromdump instead of buildimgfs which avoid the size issue and in additon can reduce the final size of flash.dio
The usage are the same with captaintrip's kitchen, I only rename the bat to "iPAQ61x_91x flex kitchen" since this works for both 61x and 91x
You will need to rename flash.dio to TEMPLATE.ROM and put it under ROM folder, when you run iPAQ61x_91x flex kitchen.bat it will also prompt you,follow instruction
keep in mind if you use flex kitchen to build your rom won't be able to extract it properly, anyone want to edit your room will need your kitchen instead. If you don't have buildimgfs issue you may want to stick with the old way of building rom
use iPAQ614c Rom Kitchen.bat if you want to build your rom in old way
Updated July 7th: attached new cecompr_nt.dll that fixed memory leak, necessary for LZX compression, replace the one under TOOLS folder
Download (v0.3):

Updated: Dec 9th ,09
v4 Beta:

FCC Information for 610c
FCC information for 910c
----------------------------------
Structure Overview
XIP is the kernel, this is also what you see those 2xxxx build mean, the whole term is called "Execute in Place", i.e execute files in rom directly without copying to ram, this is for boot process, anything wrong mean you will stuck in clean boot
OEM is for device/manufacturer specific program/drivers
SYS is for Windows Mobile system files
A package is a folder with at least a dsm file,all other files are extra
-rgu file is just reg file which you can use notepad to edit
-default all files goto Windows directory (obviously exclude rgu file)
-initflashfiles.dat/txt is a text file with instruction to move files to different directory
Files vs Modules
Modules are folder with ".dll" in their names. Inside the folder there is imageinfo.bin, S00X where x is a digit. When they are cooked into ROM they will become dll with proper relocation (done by WMReloc/G'Reloc). Supposedly being modules would make them load faster(because no need to relocate at runtime?) and some dlls must be in modules or else some program will not work properly. However there are also cases that modules must be converted to files.
Technically you can put everything in SYS since at the end buildOS will merge everything together but it is easier to manage if you follow the OEM/SYS structure
Common Issues TroubleShooting
hang on 1st boot screen (HP Logo)
-XIP porting issue, .rom , .vm file not correct .etc
hang on 2nd boot screen (WM splash screen)
-module did not relocate properly (did you run WMReloc or GReloc?)
-XIP (lower possibility, i don't think it affect..just in case you should keep in mind)
hang/crash on today screen
-software conflict/missing .etc , check your SYS/OEM files
Endless HP update/customization engine
-happens because of different model uses different customization engine, using one from other model/region will cause it to rerun every boot time, the only solution seem to prevent it to run from start by removing it from initflashfiles.dat. Convert all the fix into packages and integrate to the rom instead
installed SIP(virtual keyboard) cannot be switched
-use recmod (under tools folder) to convert all modules into files in browsingie folder
cannot compose new sms/email .etc
-replace redist_lang_[lang_code] folder with one that worked before
wifi cannot turn off after boot
-set HKLM/Comm/SDIO86861/Wireless to 1
XIP
To insert ported xip, run this command: osnbtool -c TEMPLATE.ROM 1 xip_out.bin
where xip_out.bin is your new XIP file
xip porting tutorial can be found all over the place in xda/ppcgeek .etc
Also make sure in ROM folder, the boot.rgu is from your device xip (the kitchen I provided only contains 61x xip so to cook for 91x you need to put 91x boot.rgu instead)
Phone Radio
rilgsm.dll is needed but usually it is in OEM folder
PagePool
Overview: xda wiki
edit using pagepool_by_wlodixon under flash folder, copy your flash.dio and run the appropriate cmd
The only exception is if the rom set pagepool to 0 (Dynamic PagePool), it won't able to recognize and you have to hex edit
hex edit the xip.bin at 0x000A75E4, change all 4 bytes to your desired value (all 0 for dynamic pagepool)
Convert cab to OEM
get package creator here
use it to open cab, then wince cab analyzer opened, choose extract folder icon, after close wince cab analyzer, you will be present with shortcut screen, do you things and hit done, finally hit complete package unless you want to change some option
Create simple cab for file/reg changes
get QuickCab
Xt9
corresponding lang files in OEMApp/OEMLang_#### where #### is the 4 digits lang ID
-[2letter langs code]hpd.ldb
-[2letter langs code]lbUN_xt9s/lsUn/.etc].kdb
-et9.SQR.[Language].bmp [Optional, some language like Polish/Portuguese just point to english bmp in registry]
-[a bunch of number/digit known as GUID].rgu (if you open it up you will find there is registry on xt9)
also under OEM\OEM_Lang_[Lang number]
-initflashfiles.dat (actually you can use notepad to open it and seacrh for ldb/kbd/bmp to see which lang files )
cooking different language
-you will need your language OEM folders from original HP rom
-your language wince.nls
-replace all language mui (e.g 0409=English) with your language mui
-some languages may added extra folders, be sure to copy them into SYS too
-sometime the hp customization/update will end up endless run in every start, in this case you will need to prevent it from running and integrate all updates into the ROM
OptionXML Addon
I have written this small .Net 3.5 App to generate option.xml for SYS packages which will allow you to select the common package and different language more easily without moving folders all the time, just unzip the zip to kitchen which will overwrite the existing batch file and put the exe under TOOLS folder.
To select/UnSelect a category in BuildOS, you can click on the Category group (e.g click on 0409 will select all 0409 packages in SYS), then click on one of the packages will select/unselect the whole group
Reserved for extra space in case
-------------Step by Step guide for xip porting-----------------------
Make sure you read this tutorial first
1. copy(either get it from kitchen or dump it using osnbtool) the existing xip_out.bin and rename it to xip.bin, open xipport, click dump xip.bin and you will get a OUT folder
2. choose write map then make packages , now rename this out folder to some other name
3. dump the new xip(from other device) using osnbtool, rename it to xip.bin & do the same as step 2 with xipport
4. now copy MSXIPKernel & MSXIPKernelLTK under Modules and Files folders from OUT folder(from step3) and overwrite to corresponding 61x OUT folder(from step1)
4.5 as said in the xda tutorial, remove hd.dll, osaxst0.dll folders and their corresponding text files under modules to avoid physical address overlap
5. use xipport to undo and then realloc and write maps. Then you check map files to make sure there is no !!!(memory address overlap) I recommend using XIP address tools to check for overlap, sometime you will get error when you realloc (key already exist .etc), use xip address tool and set work folder to OUT then you will see error on first dll addr which you have to fix all highlighted red cell(overlapped address). Note that to fix first dll addr address you have to highlight the cell, enter the new start address on the V address cell in bottom, click modify, then use mouse to highlight the 1A cell above, and change the D address cell to the same as V then click modify button(on the right of V cell). You should see the change in table then. For virtual base overlap you only need to modify V cell only
Note: first dll addr overlap will result error when you click realloc in xipport.
The goal is have no overlap as shown in MAP.txt. When there is no more overlap, use xipport to build xip_out.bin and then insert the xip into the dio file using osnbtool
Commands:
extract xip: osnbtool -d flash.dio 1 xip.bin
insert xip: osnbtool -c flash.dio 1 xip.bin
also make sure your ROM\boot.rgu is from your device xip

LZX Compression:
The default compression algorithm for ROM is XPR, if you must include lots of files that causes your resulting rom >80mb under XPR(81920kb - ROM Size limit for 61x, bigger than this the device won't boot), you need to use LZX compression. It reduces rom size by ~13% but with ~1-3% performance hit(from other post I read, I never verify the performance hit).
To use LZX compression, you need to replace the cecompr.dll folder in XIP Modules with the one attached in this post. Re-port the xip (realloc + write map + build xip_out.bin) and then use osnbtool to inject the xip inot TEMPLATE.ROM.
Then hex edit the imgfs_raw_data.bin in the rom kitchen, replace the first string "XPR" without quote you found with "LZX" without quote.
Make sure you have replace the cecompr_nt.dll under tools folder of the kitchen with the one I attached in 1st post to avoid memory leak
Now just build normally, you will notice the time to inject file will take much longer because of the compression
Is there any ROM kitchen tools for hp iPAQ h6365 WM2003?
Wow great kitchen. Thanks for sharing.
here, here! keyx you da man
One thing though - when you say this:
Phone Radio
if you are using SYS from other device, make sure you replace ril.dll and phone.dll from a working rom in phoneRedist or you will get a phone radio not installed which disable phone function
rilgsm.dll is also needed but usually it is in OEM folder

I'm not sure that is actually correct. I've been using ril.dll and phone.dll from all kinds of donor SYS; these are OS files that should be generic. It is only rilgsm.dll that is manufacturer-specific.
you are right, I corrected the post
I think I do anything wrong...
If I extract your ROM(WM 6.5 Beta 3.81) and put it together to a ROM again, it is 10MB smaller.....After extracting this, its 1MB smaller...
Question is, why?
Greets
chucknican
actually for unknown reason if you use my kitchen to build rom, you won't able to extract it properly...i am not sure why. But currently it is the only solution for me to overcome buildimgfs error
so the solution is that I use captaintrip's kitchen to extract and yours to build it together again?
I can't get this kitchen to build my ROM. The after WMReloc does the modules rebase, I get the following feedback...
Code:
Injecting files ...
Input file imgfs_raw_data.bin cannot be opened. Exiting.
In fact, when I watch the temp folder during this process, I see no imgfs_raw_data.bin at all. In your new script, I can't see where this file would come from anyway.
Help?

no in fact i will need to upload a kitchen as the result rom using my flex kitchen will not be extracted properly

you have to run "prepare_imgfs flash.dio -nosplit" to get the imgfs_raw_data.bin first, this process is done when you extract a rom before but if you just directly use it to build a rom you need to manually run the command on a flash.dio first
Also keep in mind if you use flex kitchen your rom won't be able to extract properly, anyone want to edit your room will need your kitchen instead. If you don't have buildimgfs issue you may want to stick with the old way of building rom

So... these files go in the root folder? That's what works for me anyway. Hmm... I think this could be easily added to the script, if you ever have to release an update to the kitchen. Anyway, thanks.
21501 kitchen added on 1st post
EDITED: kitchen updated to detect missing of imgfs_raw_data.bin and extract it automatically, I also updated some tools versions
ADC and Ipaq Data Connect
Are both of these necessary? When both are installed the ADC seems to run first and configures a "Proxy Internet" Profile in the Connection Manager which lists all 3 possible connections for my data carrier, even though I can only use the internet2.voicestream.com with T-Mobile. Maybe I am not using this correctly, but once I removed the ADC, the ipaq data connection worked fine and I was able to connect to the internet without a problem. Is this all this app does, or is there another usage that I should leave it installed for?
Thank-you
you can remove ADC if you don't want it, i think it just help to setup data connections
Customization
Keyz
I have removed some of the OEMs from the kitchen, but am not sure that I modified the initflashfile.dat correctly,will you look at it for me and see (I highlighted what I have removed)? If I remove the entire last 3 lines that contain the Utility file the device does not reboot from sdlauncher when installing. When I leave the last line in it is very speedy to install and reboot, but I have the empty utility Folder in my programs folder! I also had tried to add the BSPropCab.cab to the OEM folder but cannot get it to install correctly. I saw that you had it installed in one of your previous roms along with the other 2 arc cabs. The arc cabs I can get to work, but I really dont want to put them in, just the bsprop. Is this possible?
In OEM I added Coreplayer, PdaNet, SKTools5, Live Search, Google Search and WM5torage1.9. I had to add Google Search in here because I could not get it to work by adding the original files back into the OEM App folder: In Systems I removed ADC, VOIP and One Note, replaced NETCF with NETCF3.5, and added Transcriber back in. I thought about removing WMWidgets, I use all SPB Software, but I dont understand all of its functions, I have Googled it and there really isnt alot out there about it. What I did find though makes me think Microsoft will add more function to it once the official 6.5 is officially released-So I will keep that. For me this is a very good ROM, you have done an excellent job with modifying the kitchen.
Thank-you

Where do you test the new roms? In the device or in somekind of emulator?

what do you mean by bsprop not installed correctly? if you convert it to OEM folder correctly it should work but if you leave the customization engine run on startup there is no point to preinstall bsprop since it will reinstall again from ipaq file store(unless you did not install the update before).
Also if you modify initflashfiles.dat i believe you should use hex editor to remove the FF FE header added by notepad.
Sometime when you flash a lot the device will act weird & does not reboot from flashing, you can try to clean boot it or reflash. I think you can remove all highlighted entries without issue. You may need to leave a blank line at the end of file though.
wmwidget is a widget engine that can run apps that use pie as a container/interface, for me it looks kinda like a shortcut to a webpage, msn weather/money .etc are the sample widget come with 6.5 for now. You can remove it if you don't use it.

Ok ppl as Badwolve1 (sorry bud, it was my bad '-_-) did for OSkitchen i will do it for EVK (remember that EVK is not fully updated for build ROMS for newer devices)
If you want to set the kitchen to build ROMS for newer device you must to search what you need to update the build info.
We need this things:
Go to your C:\ and select tools in the menu bar select folder options and enable to see the extensions of files.. see hiden files and see system files
Download this and install them:
Net Frameworks 3.5
MS visual 2008
Ervius visual kitchen 1.8.1
Upgrade EVK 1.8.2 (Just replace the exe)
once you get the folders of the kitchen and installed the net 3.5 and Visual redist 2008
you need to modify a lil your kitchen_build_rom.bat file that must be in the TOOLS folder.
but i will tell you how later.
!!Starting on!!
Your new Kitchen looks like this now!!!

Once you downloaded the EVK you must to put the My Tools, Tools, and the EXE into a folder with a short name ( I use XDA) and please dont use spaces in the names of the root folder
This is the kitchen root preview: as we can saw in c:\XDA
Yes unrar it on C: and call it XDA to avoid the large name issues at CMD!
Inspecting the Facility

DUMPING THE ORIGINAL ROM
We need to get any stock rom we have floating around (check the thread called shipped roms collection stickied
change the extension from exe to rar and we just need the RUU_Signed.nbh file put it somewhere in your PC
If you have a diferent language ROM than english i will suggest you to start with english lang code 0409 cause almost all the pkgs are easy to get in 0409... maybe i will make anothe rtutorial to translate that pkgs to your native lang
Here is a list of Language codes (thanks Da_G)

1.- Download the newest stock rom of your Device and save it in your destop... sometimes the file is an .EXE file so you must to rename it as .rar
2.- Open the rar file, and xtract the file called RUU_Signed.nbh the others we dont need them anymore,
*3.- Put your nbh file in a folder into your kitchen root direction.. a folder called STOCK
*4.- Sometimes the RUU signed nbh is inside another exe calle RUU inside.exe do the same operation xtract it and chege the name to rar... you will find the nbh now.
Xplain IMAGES
5.- Execute your Erviuskitchen.exe.... (its no problem if the kitchen tells you that there arent some folders... of course are missing say OK to all)
6.- We must to hit the DUMP button, Search in our STOCK folder for our nbh file
7.- the kitchen will dump the rom
** the kitchen will ask you to type the name of your device
Its a huge task so let it run.... it must say dump succesfully now you will have a new folder called DUMP inside you will find more folders like a fresh new kitchen, cut the OEM and ROM folder and paste them to our main kitchen.
The OEM folder must contains a folder with the name of our device and inside it will have three folders... .VM, COMMON and 0409.
The ROM folder will contains a folder with a build number and inside a folder called OEMXIPKERNEL (this is the device's kernel (The kernel version will be accordly to the dumped rom, if you dump a WM6 rom you will have native 6.0 kernel)
the rom folder will contains three files: romhdr.bin, xip.bin and the payload... you can delete the info.txt file
Then go to the folder SYS\<buildnumber>\SHARED\COMMON\ and cut the folder wincenls_WWE and paste it to OEM\<Device>\COMMON\ this file never change and is needed to boot, so if we add it into the oem we never forget it
Now you can move the STOCK folder out of the kitchen, and our kitchen looks like this
Now you need to go the 6.5 Initflashfiles.dat repository thread and download the PKG that contains all the langs... and choose the WWE iniflashfiles.dat check the main sticky thread to locate the repository thread.
The initflashfiles.dat is the file that will set the specific 6.5 file structure, so in WM6.5 it change a lot since 6.1 and 6, so we must to overwrite the one in our folder OEM\<device>\0409\OEM_lang_0409\
Continue...
!!!!!Setting up the ROM and SYS!!!!!
First of all:
As we most know there are NATIVE 6.5 NKs but the repository thread is updating , get them here
This is just the OEMXIPKERNEL and the bin files, this is the Device Kernel Part
As you can see in the image you must to put in the ((ROM\Devicename\Buildnumber\))
the folder OEMxipkernel that is included into the native kernel downloaded file
The "XIP.bin" "romhdr.bin" and the "payload" in ((ROM\Devicename\))
(so we have now to get the MSXIPKERNEL)
The MSXIPKERNEL is the build OS specific kernel part, so...
The kitchen will takes the OEMXIPKERNEL (the native 6.5 NK) and the MSXIPKERNEL for the build to be compiled, and we could have the kernel complete. the kitchen will port the xip.bin for us.
The MSXIPKERNELLTK folder (Logo Tool Kit) Is not needed, it has just a .DSM that allows the carrier to make important fixes and upgrades to their ROMs (But they didnt use it) so we dont need it anymore.
where to get the MSXIPkernel??? go to the Latest SYSs & OEMs thread and download any build you wish to cook... there are many other threads that offers the new builds, please check the Main sticky thread of chef central HERE.
If you download a new build Rollup pkg (200 MB), you will have all the SYS pkgs and the MSXIPKERNEL inside... in one folder!
If you download a stripped build pkg (from 50MB to 70MB), you will have (maybe) all the SYS pkgs already arranged in EVK format!
I invite you to read the Da_G guide to know all the pkgs inside a rollup rar file this way you can get more info about all the pkgs.
There are many tools to set the rollup pkgs into EVK format... I like to use THIS
Here I have a video to xplain how to use it (spanish only sorry i need a translator )
lets see graphically how the SYS rollup is and how this tool make the job for us
1.- I create a folder called New Build
2.- Donwloaded the packer.jar
3.- Downloaded the rollup pkg new build 23563
4.- Unrar the rollup pkg into a folder called SYS
Then RUN the packer.jar follow the instructions as the developer of Packer.jar says in his thread
and we will have all the sys in a folder called Build (rename this folder to 23563, cause is the name of the new build number we downloaded) and now is sorted into EVK format like this...
**Note: in the packer i set lang 0409, dpi 96, resh 240, resv 320, cause my device is QVGA and i want to cook in 0409 lang.
Now we must to open the shared\common folder in our new sys 23563 folder...
We must to locate some pkgs that we will not use whats the reason to delete this pkgs? the reason if you have red the Da_G sys rollups info, is beacuse we are cooking for 0409, most of this pkgs like EA and complexscripts and sipar , msim and others are for MiddleAsia ROMS.
1.- We are cooking for 0409 se just need the pkgs with the name NonEA, so we can delete the pkgs called EA and AH.
2.- If we have Native kernel 6.5 we will use Modules instead of files so we can erase the pkgs called Baseappsfiles, Osfiles and MediaOsFiles, so we kept osmodules, baseappsmodules and mediaosmodules.
3.- delete complexscript_fonts, gb18030, msxipkernelLTK, nonephone, riched20_CS, RIL710MUX, SIPAR, MSIMAR, Uniscribe, webviewCS, wincenls_WWE (cause we already have it in OEM folder) and the xip.bin cause we dont need it.
Well, its time to create in the root kitchen folder, a new folder called SYS, and move the entire 23563 folder into the SYS folder.
as you may see in the picture, there is the MSXIPKERNEL folder...
1.- Go to your ROM\SHARED folder and create a folder called 23563, cut that MSXIPKERNEL inside SYS\shared\common and paste it to the new ROM\SHARED\23563 folder, and we will have now the OS specific part of our ROM.
2.- If you downloaded the native 6.5 kernel you must to rename the folder XXXXX (build number) to "23563" into "ROM\<device>\" so now the Device Kernel match to the OS kernel and SYS build number... that three elements are now set as 23563
And the kitchen root looks like this now:
At this point we have:
6.5.X 23563 SYS
6.5.X 23563 OS Kernel
6.5 Native Device kernel
Old OEM drivers and Main apps (you can switch to newer drivers searching for them i actually have some OLD WM6 and some NEW WP6.5 HD2 Drivers)
But what about the EXT PKGS????
You can add more today plugins, other third party apps, and/or tweaks by making EXT PKGS you can read a lot of info about this new PKGS or you can add them into the OEM\Common folder if you have OEM PKGS.
How?
Well the structure is almost the same as all in the kitchen
C:\
-XDA
--EXT
----<Buildnumber>
------COM5 Tricks
--------Beta Expiry Watermark
------BUILD IMAGES
--------Welcomehead
----COMMON
------Multimedia
--------Camera 6.0
--------HTC leo album
------Tweaks
--------NewIcons
--------Performance
--------Registry fixes
------Addons
--------Coreplayer
--------Youtube player
--------Adobe reader
--------Cfacebook plugin
Etc etc etc....
And we are good to go!!!!
WHOOO HOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! we made it!!!!!!!!! its already set! so this is the kitchen UI, if everything was ok the kitchen launch without troubles if you saw an error check the folders it says (SVN folders don cause troubles at starting the build proces) SO just set the device, XIP, SYS EXT they must match, and select the apps to be installed or not by clickng double.
HAPPY COOKING GUYS!!!!
try it at your OWN risk IM not responsible for damages to your device
Any question about setting the kitchen please ask whatever!!! we will support you

even when i freshly insatll it it says nbhutility encounter a problem??
Unable to find wincenls_WWE
After I dump the stock .nbh, I'm unable to find the wincenls_WWE folder under the SYS_<buildnumber>_SHARED_COMMON folder. In alpha order in SYS folder it gives folders:
voice command, welcome center, windows live, WWAN
wincenls_WWE folder is not there?
I am building for Diamond(Victor) CDMA.
(Ervius Kitchen did say,
"Copying \Tools folder into new kitchen...
Kitchen builded successfull!!!
=====================================
All Done... Nbh/nb/payload Dumped and ''Kitchen'' created Successfull!!!")
edit:
I did a new dump from the stock .nbh from a Vogue(CDMA sprint touch) and found the winCENLS_WWE folder there. Can I copy that one to the CDMA Diamond one?
yes you can use that wincenls_wwe put it into oem\device\common
+ Que PPC said:
just remember, to have a booting rom, if the rom stucks at first splash screen... is XIP troubles... if the rom stucks at second or welcomehead spalsh screen is omething related to REGS
Keep in mind that you need FWupdate and wincenls_wwe in the rom! for fwupdate you can use the dummy pkg in OEM both, just to dont forget them
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
where should FWupdate and wincenls_wwe be found in the packages? I dont see them anywhere
wincenls_wwe is from your device's source(Device Specific) and FWUpdate could be either the dummy pack or an original pack from a rom's dump.
Regards!
Use the attached PKGS
The wincenls_wwe is notdevice specific... cause it contains the regional settings data.. you can use it in OEM common
The FWUpdate is EXT PKG you can disable the default fwupdate from every new SYS
If your Antivirus detects some threats in the donwload links for EVK, its not true... sometimes antivirus detects osnbtool as a virus... many ppl knows it.

Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. I'm a noob in cooking.
I have been following your step by step instructions, but I faced two issues:
1. On post#3, I have downloaded the 6.5 native kernel for Topaz, where should place the files? It's not indicated in your post. Do I replace the OEMXIPKERNEL the the stock ROM dump?
2. How do I get the contents of EXT folder? I have followed every step given carefully, but my EXT folder is still empty...
Please help. Thanks!
I add that part sorry for skip it
As you can see in the image you must to put in the ((ROM\Devicename\Buildnumber\))
the folder OEMxipkernel that is included into the native kernel downloaded file
The "XIP.bin" "romhdr.bin" and the "payload" in ((ROM\Devicename\))
(so we have now to get the MSXIPKERNEL)
The MSXIPKERNEL is the build OS specific kernel part, so...
