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\...

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.

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.

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...

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

P.S.: at first post "beta 2" is ready (some bugs solved!)
I try to create a program which consists of
.asx files (to show online tv channels),
.lnk files (shorcuts to the .asx files) and
a .dll file which contains only some .ico files (icons of the tv channels).
I added all these files to a cab using WinCE Cab Manager and tried to install it on my ppc. So far so good. The problem occurred when the message “The program can not be installed. Choose another location” appeared during installation, just after the process bar was filled.
Although I have no idea about computer programming, I have created many cab’s with WinCE Cab Manager for skins I have created for several programs. Anyway, I realized that the problem occurred due to the .dll file, since this is the first time I add such a file in a .cab.
I created my .dll file using a .dll from another program which had only icons in it, as well. I deleted them using Restorator 2007 and I had an “empty” .dll sized 4KB. Then I added my icon files using XN Resource Editor.
I searched the Internet to see what might be the problem with the .dll and I found out that I have to “register” my .dll file. I really have no idea what this means but it needs to be done. I also found an option in WinCE Cab Manager for “self-registering” file, but it didn’t work either.
So, the question to you dev guys is how can I register my .dll file, or should I create it from the beginning with another way?
Please help! Thanks in advance!
sorry to repost but it seems that posts keep coming in this forum and this thread is already in the second page and I'm afraid that noone will see it and reply to it. By the way, is there any special sub-forum for such questions?
This may help. I use his instructions to edit existing DLL's
http://www.modaco.com/content/i9x0-...88904/lisbian-taskbars-for-i910/#entry1023568
It will unsign the dll which will probably fail on your custom dll but it should sign it when you are done editing.
NilsP
Many thanks for your suggestion but unfortunately it didn't work for me.
As you said, this is mainly for resigning already signed .dll files.
Any other help will be appreciated. I can attach it here if anypne is willing to help. Or just tell me the way. Thanks!
I deploy a few dll's with my app, without any problem. If the installer complains about the location, what did you specify where it should go?
There are 2 approaches to solve this problem:
1.) If you have a private key to match a certificate in the device's certificate store, sign the .dll and .cab with this private key and it will be installed with elevated privledges, and be successful. To facilitate this you can install the "SDK Certificates" - and sign with the matching private key (you should be able to find these on a search, term "SDKCerts" or similar)
2.) Look for an "Application Unlocker" or other security reduction tool, run it, and you should be able to install the cab. On this note, if you check here, it will give you a more technical overview of the security policies. You want to change 4101 / 0x1005 to "SECROLE_MANAGER" (8) - which tells the system to install it with elevated privledges. Also make sure 4102 / 0x1006 is set to 1 to allow unsigned applications.
6Fg8
I don't believe that is the location I specified that causes the problem because when I deleted the .dll file from the .cab, it was installed properly. How do you create your dll files? With programming or you just edit existing files? If I send you my .ico files, will you be able to create the .dll file for me?
Da_G
Thanks but both approaches seem very complicated for me!
So, will I need Visual Basic in order to do this or is there any easier way? Can anyone sign the dll for me?

Yes with programming, C++ or .net. Never had any issue with signing. I can try to make a dll if you send me the icons (or post them here if they aren't too secret ).

I have sent them to you by pm. They are not secret at all but I will create a "program" (wannabe ) with that dll and I want that program to be a surprise for users of the forum where I'll post it. I may post it on xda too, but it's nothing important.
Many thanks!

This happens because you've changed resources in signed file, which changed file checksum and invalidated it's signature, and Windows installer refuses to install file with invalid signature. But it won't refuse to install this file WITHOUT signature at all - so use unsigner (search for it on XDA) to remove signature completely; if you encounter error, try to remove signature from original (unmodified) file, and then change resources in it...
6Fg8
the_ozyrys
Thanks to both of you!
6Fg8 has created and signed the dll for me and it finally worked, but I also tried the_ozyrys' method and it also worked.
So thanks to baniaczek too, since he created the unsigner.exe.
Everything worked fine with the dll. Now the cab is installed properly.
However, I have another problem. Just after the installation of the cab on my ppc, it seems that the device freezes for about a minute. This is propably because my cab contains a lot of shortcuts (.lnk files) that go under Programs folder.
So, I would like to ask for another favour, if it's possible. As I said I intend to give this cab to others too. Since this delay can make them believe that my program has freezed their device, I would like to make the cab restart the device just after installation and after uninstallation as well. I think this is made with the "Setup.dll" which I don't know how to create.
If anyone knows how to do this and has the time for it, could you please create this setup.dll for me. If the cab is needed to do this, just tell me to send it to you.
Thanks in advance!
Anyone? Plzzzzzzz!
If you want to sign .dll or .exe u can use the apps posted in the two posts below

Thanks for your answer but 6Fg8 and the_ozyrys already helped me on that.
My question now is how to create a setup.dll in order to make my .cab to prompt the user to restart the device after installation and uninstallation. If anyone can do it for me, I can send you the .cab which I alreday created and you can add the setup.dll with those functions.
The attached .provxml will not execute. It's supposed to associate icons with folders in the start menu, but it's just not working. It is totally unmodified from the Rhodium S2 ROM. The directories are there as the initflashfiles.dat file is unmodified and the folders are in the start menu. Anyone care to help?
Your file is fine so I guess that you have the same issue I had .
I guess you don't have that provxml added to any of dsm files . Just use this tool and add it to any of dsm files.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523139
You can also use xml parser to check if file is good, for example Serna Editor.
Click to expand...

Maybe I'm wrong, so if you already have this provxml added to any of dsm files, we'll look for more reasons. One more question, do you try to cook this into ROM or execute from Advanced Configuration Tool?
It's cooked in. The package is directly from the Rhodium S2 ROM, so I don't quite understand why it's not executing. I'm thinking about putting it in another OEM folder and seeing if that will help. Heck I'm lost, and about to turn it in for the night.
As I wrote, try adding it manually to dsm file in that OEM folder, this should help you, if this won't help, then I'm out of ideas.
Anyway, you can just add content of that provxml to another provxml, it's dirty way but probably the easiest one.
This happens because the messenger.lnk have not been created when this provxml is executed and it fails.
So just rename the provxml to mxipupdate_zprojectdefault_a_000.provxml
Notice the "z" ahead of the project.
This trick will put the provxml after the mxipupdate_windowsliveim_1.provxml, so the messenger.lnk will have been created and the provxml will run just fine.
But he said that provxml isn't excuted at all, I'm out of ideas . Anyway, it's worth to give your idea a try.

the provxml isn´t executed on my rhodium as well. but renaming to mxipupdate_zzzzprojectdefault_a_000.provxml
does work for me.
as the posters above me wrote:
the problem seems to be the messenger package which includes another *provxml file which should be prozessed BEFORE mxipupdate_projectdefault_a_000.provxml but it isn´t! also *.provxml aren´t prozessed if there´s a failure inside. when you remove a program and you don´t clear the line in the *.provxml the file would not me prozessed.
this problem is related to platformrebuilder breaking something, you can pm airxtreme for info, it seems that he solved this problem in his wonderful kitchen
steph
Provxml can be launched but they stops at the line it find a problem so it seems that it doesnt works.
Platform rebuilder can reads DSM in EVK? or just in OsK? or none?
Renaming the .provxml solved the issue. Man, the start menu looks good now! Thanks!
Great, I wouldn't think about renaming on my own . Anyway, it seems that those provxml files are processed in alphabetical order, right?
everything is alphabetical order processed in platform rebuilder based kitchens ¬¬

@kurniawan77 - Did it work for you?
Same prob here, using osKitchen Zero for HTC LEO. Already tried renaming by adding zzz in name and also tried adding the provxml in dsm. Any other suggestions? This is drving me nuts, please help.
p/s: also tried opening the provxml in internet explorer/XML notepad 2007 - no errors. Made sure there are no "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>" in the headers.
Try to replace platformrebuilder.exe with another version, that did the trick for me.
Before you ask, sorry but I'm using a private edition of platformbuilder so I can't share.

Hi Airxtreme - Thanks for developing the kitchen! Its really great. But i just recently moved to osK Zero from ervius. Previously in ervius i didnt even bother to add provxmls in any dsm. I dont quite understand DSM management fully, but i did add the provxmls in DSM of my ext package (ext package contains my custom icons for start menu and the provxml to add reg entries).
When i get back home, i will try to rebuild the ROM with older version of kitchen and report back. Currently im using v1.31Beta3.
p/s: i had trouble with theme provxmls as well, finally i had to put all the theme files in Operatorpkg, and put the xml entries in HTC's provxmls (the one named HTC_100) for it to work.

I dont quite understand DSM management fully, but i did add the provxmls in DSM of my ext package (ext package contains my custom icons for start menu and the provxml to add reg entries).
When i get back home, i will try to rebuild the ROM with older version of kitchen and report back. Currently im using v1.31Beta3.
p/s: i had trouble with theme provxmls as well, finally i had to put all the theme files in Operatorpkg, and put the xml entries in HTC's provxmls (the one named HTC_100) for it to work.

Those having problem with provxmls where it is used to overwrite other provxmls in sys (ie: for theme settings), please try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7038082&postcount=2477
This version of your kitchen solved all my probs. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I only tried to help make the provxml load
Bepe created the kitchen tool and knows everything about it.
Edit; a bit late but the version I use is 2.1.0.0 indeed.

Hi.
Going to thread:
I build my own kitchen which uses platform rebuilder (far called PRB), it's for Universal and contain 21884 build (my favourite ).
Everything goes okay, registry, modules, files is okay but the problem is known .provxml issue.
I use PRB 2.1 (displays mmap)
All provxml and dsm are readonly, system and hidden
I tried to put all provxml to external dsm, also add all files into one dsm, updating existing dsm, renaming provxml's to mxip_zzzz << you know the 'zzzz' makes it process at last.
No success.
Fail effect is:
No Office (which installs via provxml), no start menu icons, no theme loaded, classicblue failed. etc.
Any ideas?
bump, without any ideas?
try to leave the Hidden attribute.
FDCTask Manager (aka DotFRED) can import *.*XML file; it's handy for testing and ensuring that the XML file is properly formed. Have a look at this post and the reference link at the end:

It is an issue with setting the attributes correct when building OS.

I've searched forums and I found tomcug WM6.1 for this pda. I wanted to make my own ROM, but cannot find any helpful tips regarding cooking for this device. The most important thing I wanted to add is new OS build and language. I've dumped it, but cannot sort with PKGTool for use with EVK and I got just Dump with all files, but I added and replaced mui, registry to get my language on this Dump folder without sorting out xip and sys. When I choose to build with tools included in latest tomcug release, no files are created. I should get WMUPDAT.DIP file, but Dump folder is deleted instead and none files are created. I tried on Win7 and WinXP and same problem persists.
WMUPDAT.DIP is 1kb file+OS.NB converted to BIN then dumped.
I also wanted to try HyperCore kitchen but I don't know how to configure ACK for JAQ3
