if i want to keep a certain rom but change its (as in trinity from 20273 to 22222) then how to do it.
Simple, you don't!
You have to port the ROM over. If you're refering to just changing the ROM number without actually changing the ROM itself, why would you do that? (Well, to be fair, my LZX ROMs report the wrong number, so this might be something I'd be interested in knowing, too.

of course not, Why would i just change the number??
I mean when rom cookers release new roms with new build, then the whole rom is extracted from another phone (e.g. samsung omnia)??. so what are the base files that represent this built ?? those files which i will then add new programs upon to cook my rom??
In other words "WHAT IS THE BUILT?? WHICH FILES??"
thanks for your help

The 22222 build isn't real. As far as porting, you grab the sys folder and the part of the XIP corresponding to WM without the device specific items. It really depends on the phone you have.
this is what i use and it works all the time:

Hi, This link which wrote few post ago is dead. Can some explain here how to change build of windows mobile in rom?
Here is a very very n0000000000000000b question for Chef Central, sorry if I annoy the masters .
I have Installed EVK 1.8.2 as well as osKithcen 1.25 and also dumped HTC Asia ROM (official) for my Touch2 T3320 its 21854 Build.
Now I want to make a ROM with a new build, so I have downloaded
SYS_23638_XIP.rar

I guess they are not compatible with OSKitchen, I tried one of them using Import Sys option, and it said that it is not a valid dump to parse.
Any idea ?
OsKitchen? are you in oskitchen or ervius?
.dio file needs to be dumped with Xidump tool search there on the Da_G thread there are so many tools to dump .dio files

i think the OS kitchen import build feature is designed for the "rollup" builds...all pkgs inside a single folder. the ones you tried are divided into language, dpi, ect for ervius visual kitchen. all you have to do is open each of those folders and copy/paste all of them into one single folder, then run the import on OS kitchen i think it should work.

Well I have downloaded both, since I am new to this stuff.. want to check out both. And will ultimately adapt to the one which I am more comfortable with (i.e. get more help on )
Now I have downloaded these three files
21898_Rollup_All_Packages.7z
21898_XIP.BIN_MSXIPKernel_SYS_QVGA_WQVGA_VGA_WVGA_0409_041D_0414.7z

from Da_G's thread
Now here is what I did:
1. Unzipped all the files in a single folder named 21898 , it had two folders SYS and XIP.
2. Copied the SYS folder under EVK and renamed it to 21898.
3. Copied the content of the XIP folder to "C:\Ervius\Tools\xip.bin_new"
Now the problem is when I am trying to cook a ROM with this (Oh that kitchen is based on WM 6.5 Stock ROM (WWE ASIA) for Mega, it stops saying that I am using 6.1 NK.exe with 6.5 XIP and since the number of modules are too many, it will make an unbootable ROM. But I guess WM 6.5 have 6.5 nk.exe?
Where did I do wrong?
EDIT:
Even after deleting the existing kitchen and re dumping the stock wwe asia ROM, it is still saying that nk.exe is of 6.1!

1.- Unzipped all files and put them togheter is just for oskitchen import sys feature... if you want it in EVK style you must to use the packer.jar... is floating arround is friendly to use and easy.
you dont need to modify nothing in Tools folder... dont touch it
From the pkgs you extract you just need to msxipkernel folder... that must be in C:\Ervius\ROM\shared\21898\

I have Touch2/ Mega T3320 (Not T3333), which have native 6.5 Kernel (it came preloaded with 6.5). The problem is I am constantly travelling ... So I have to use GPRS / Edge for surfing and browsing and ...... Bugging . so you can understand - I won't be able to upload the kitchen. Even to download the SYS etc, it takes me around 5-6 hours! But ... what to do??
EDIT:
I have even deleted the Existing EVK folder and redumped the HTC WWE Asia ROM for Touch2 / Mega but still EVK is telling me that nk is of 6.1!
But osKitchen says its 6.5 (which I guess is right)

welcome to real XDA and late night and prepared to drink so much coffee
Finally finished your great tutorial... but the thing is even with the stock ROM of Mega as base, EVK says that nk.exe 6.1 and not 6.5.
I simply dumped the Stock ROM and recooked it, no changes nothing. BTW I did got the nbhutil.xml with mega settings though...
Is there any other setting that needs to be changed So that EVK recognizes the nk as a native 6.5???
P.S. clicking on the Native check box does have no effect
i guess it isnt another settings the kitchen reads what you have in the nk.exe
wich build is your Original rom?
is 6.5?

[I asked this in the wrong forum previously -- sorry for the repeat topic]
I would like to understand where the Model No string comes from. This value is shown in device info and apparently checked by some software to determine if it's running on "known" or "supported" phones (e.g., Bing).
For example this is "T-Mobile_LEO" on a US HD2.
How does a chef influence this value, and more importantly, is it possible for me to change it without needing a new ROM image or having to reflash (e.g., via the registry, or updating a file, etc)?
Some pieces of software simply check model.txt (in the windows folder).

Just do a search for the model number shown in device info in total commander (do a search in the registry section), and see what comes up.

User-Agent is possible, but I don't think he's referring to the others. He said "T-Mobile_LEO", but HTC won't show out code names in these places except User-Agent. Maybe the OP can specific this question?
On an HD2, Settings tab -> "About Phone" -> Phone Identity
Bing picks this up:
NOTE: the above is on a cooked ROM where the chef has gratuitously changed the Model No (on a stock ROM, it's something like T-Mobile_LEO). Unfortunately this causes Bing to think it's in beta mode because it doesn't recognize the phone it's running on. I want to know if I can change it back without reflashing.
Thanks for the tips, folks. Both registry settings mentioned above have "T-Mobile_LEO" in them.
However \windows\ModelName.txt contains the value the chef changed it to ("HTC HD2").
Is it possible for me to change ModelName.txt even though it's a ROM file?
Secondarily I'm also curious about how the registry values got initialized to T-Mobile_LEO -- where specifically did *that* string come from, given that ModelName.txt contains a different string?
I created a cab with the WM6.1 SDK and it worked. My phone identifies as a T-Mobile_LEO and Bing (after being uninstalled and reinstalled) stops identifying itself as beta.
Thanks for the tips folks.
Ok happy ending lets change the name as OP didnt do it

Yes, you can. Copy it out and edit it, then use 3rd-party file explorers such as Resco or Total Commander to overwrite the ROM file. The identity string is also a registry:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Ident]
"Name"="T-Mobile_LEO"

May I know for my knowledge what does this [OP] indicate?
I have searched my kitchen endlessly for the T-Mobile_LEO string that shows up as per picture one in the earlier post, and cannot find it. The ModelName.txt file contains the correct text (as I have a Touch Pro 2).
The reg key that seems to set this is HKLM\system\platform\OEMString but I cannot find the source of this in the kitchen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone have any further sugegstions? I am at a loss with this as to where this is being set. My best guess is Manila and that is why the search is not picking it up? I am no good with manila so am seeking guidance.

It depends which kitchen or tools you are using.
In Oskitchen you can find it in 'NBH Structure.xml'
It contains the rom version and settings to create the nbh.
The kitchen uses nbImageTool.exe made by Da_G which reads this file to create the nbh.

Thank you for the reply.
The nbh structure.xml correctly identifies my device as a RHOD 300. The T-Mobile_LEO must be coming from somewhere else.
I use OsKItchen and the source dumped rom was from a Rhodium and so my OEM and device profile comes from that. The erroneous model no must be coming from an EXT package as far as I can see.
If you are looking for a package I would say Oemversion.

If you have swype, it would probably be coming from there.
Aaaahhhhh - now that would explain why I cannot find any reference to it in my kitchen. I could never get swype to work as an EXT package the way I wanted so it installs within XDA-UC.
Time to pull that cab apart I think.

If you do change the Model name, Swype probably won't work. It looks at the model name.

Greetings!
First off, I have little idea what I'm doing, this is my first attempt to create a custom ROM. I've searched around and can't seem to find a solution.
I've got an Xperia X1 and am using osKitchen.
The ultimate goal is to have a Japanese ROM with WM build 25369 with no additional UIs, i never use sense or whatever anyway, just the old today screen with cal, messaging, and time/date items.
I have:
Latest stock ROM for X1 (GENERIC_NAM_R3AA011)
23569_MSXIPKernel_SYS_QVGA_WQVGA_VGA_WVGA_0409 (Just Eng)
initflashfiles-dat-all-langs-updated-feb-24-2010.zip
RUU_Diamond_eMobile_JPN_1.81.881.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.48.25.26_1.09.25.07_Ship.exe (6.1 JPN ROM)
Kovsky-xip-bin-oemxipkernel-nk-exe-native-WM65.zip
WM6550-23563-Rollup-All-Pkgs.rar (This has all languages)
Here's what I'm doing, anyone of them (or all) could be very wrong, hopefully I've done at least one thing right:
Imported X1 ROM for OEMDrivers, OEMApps, OEMOperators, oemversion, oem_dpi
Imported 6.1 JPN ROM for OEM Lang 411
-What i did here is i copied everything over from the JPN rom's oem 411 folder into the X1 OEM Lang folder, overwrote any conflicts, deleted any 0409 muis, and copied over the file from initflashfiles zip for 0411.
Replaced OEMXipKernel with the one from Kovsky-xip-bin-oemxipkernel-nk-exe-native-WM65.zip and selected custom XIP when making the rom with the one also found in that zip. Put the rest of the files (os.nb.payload, xip.bin, uldr.nb0, romhdr.bin) into the ROM Parts folder.
Then, I Used OS, OSFiles, MSXIPKernel, MSXIPKernelLTK from the 23569_MSXIPKernel_SYS_QVGA_WQVGA_VGA_WVGA_0409 zip, and the rest of the packages i used from the WM6550-23563-Rollup-All-Pkgs rar (because it had 0411 files).
I deleted dpi and lang folders that my device doesn't use (it uses 192dpi 480x800 and 0411) and built the ROM, flashed, and it shows the Sony Ericsson splash screen, and then goes black forever.
I know I must be doing something very wrong, any hints as to what?
Thanks
Pfff, what a big list,
Okay I did it this way, and I make my rom in 12 languages and they are all working.
1. Install oskitchen and import xperia rom
2. After finishing import 23563 build
3. Install another oskitchen and import diamond jpn rom
4. Copy the oem_lang 0411 and the ext packages to your kovsky kitchen be aware you put them in the right place.
5. Open the kovsky kitchen and select the Japanese language and select the packages you wanna use in your rom and you're done.
Regards,
Cool thanks!
That would be for 23563 though right? What if i wanted to use 23569 with 23563 packages? ....No real reason, higher number, figure it's better somehow....that even possible?

If you extract the 23569 build, you only have to change the All and Common folder, but in your first post you where talking about a 25369 build and I didn't know what kind off build that was.
Succes buddy,
Make sure you have the proper wince.nls in your build. If you leave it out, the rom won't boot.

No I have them also, never take a look at it, only checked the file when I cooked my rom's never changed anything or replaced it with another version or from another build.
I try to cook a WM 6.5.x rom for my Mega. But When I try to install I've noticed that(picture). So Am I did something wrong? I used ROM_Mega_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1-28-479-4 for this as base and this
29007_XIP_HVGA_QVGA_VGA_WWQVGA_WWVGA_0409 for 6.5.x
Is this normal? Or What?
Whatever. I'm installing rom.
Well, It's sure now there is a problem with that. It stucks at 18% and don't installs.
Well, I guess this:
ROM_Mega_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1-28-479-4
is a keyword. You have the ROM version in the file name and it's actually lower than you currently have in device.
I think this number is stored in nk.exe (it's a part of XIP -> OEMXipKernel). I have no idea if this file should be changed when porting ROM to 6.5.x. Someone else must answer it.
Normally MSXIPKernel is included in build, so perhaps nk.exe must match it. I don't know.
I figure it out. When installing it says base builds version but when installed its becomes the name I put like Fattur's Rom v1.0
