EasyPortOven V2.2 [Updated May 11 2008]

This is a release for my ROM porting kitchen. It ports both XIP's and SYS folders. It currently supports the following:
Herald
Wizard
Prophet
Kaiser
Elf/Elfin
Hermes
Zinc
Athena
http://www.darthnet40.com/xda/ivanmmj/Kitchens/
(You will need 7-Zip to open the file.)
This is compatible with Bepe's extended kitchen, but I don't believe he ever released one for every device out there. It requires a ROM folder with an extracted XIP folder within it. Just download the Herald's and you'll see what I mean. The ONLY tested section has been the Herald section as that's the only device that I have.
If your device is compatible with Bepe's kitchen or my kitchen, it will automatically launch the kitchen right after.
Instructions:
Delete your old SYS folder
Place the SYS file you wish to port into Working_Folder
Place your xip.bin that you wish to port into the Prepare folder
*Note: Close the XIPPort program after pressing "Make Packages." The script will take over after that.
You should not have a Working_Folder with an OEM, SYS and XIP folder (and a Tools folder if you have Bepe's kitchen, even more if you have my kitchen.)
Double click on the RunMe file and choose your device.
For those who have a kitchen:
Place bepe's kitchen in the Working_Folder (so that OEM/SYS/ROM and other folders are right within Working_Folder.) Alternatively, you can place also place all the files into EasyBakeOven's folder. Allow the Working_Folder to override EasyBakeOven's Working_Folder. You will not loose any data but will bypass a few "info" scripts. This will not cause any problems.
Obligatory Warning Label:
Use this at your own RISK. I cannot be held liable for any damage caused to your device by your own mistakes or by my mistakes in the instructions.
If you wish to know how to do this manually, head over to my HowTo thread.

Noted. Thank you!

Has anyone found this even remotely useful? If not, I will not pursue adding more devices.

I have! I've ported a Kaiser XIP and a Touch one to the Prophet! Problem is I couldn't find the latest builds so they where slightly out of date...

Just for being nice to me, here you go!
That's the newest official build. Be careful of anything "newer," they're fakes.
It's the one labeled 19213.7z
You'll need 7Zip to open the file. In it as the xip.bin and the SYS folders.

Yay!!!
Porting time!

I have one feature request!
Would it be possible to build a feature in that cleans out the folders before porting?

I think I'll test later cause actually I'm in exam but I think it work, I'm on the same device as l3v5y so I'll make my test and maybe take to you Artemis files (my other phone)
Thank for your hard work

Great tool ivanmmj.... I have a few questions. I guess I don't fully understand the process.
I've been able to get the XIP folder, os.nb.payload and romhdr.bin files from a KAISER rom... plus I used the .VM and WinCENLS_WWE folders from a working HERMES rom, but I can't seem to get past the second boot screen. A question I had is... do we use the os.nb.payload and romhdr.bin we got from the KAISER? or do we use those from a working hermes rom? and the XIP directory, do we need to change anything in there? or is just extracting it out, enough to work?
Thanks in advance.

Awesome tool, looks like a dummy can me even port ROM's will try it out sometime. Thanks bunches!

Already ahead of you. Today I noticed that I tend to leave a mess behind. lol I'll have it remove the files before replacing them, then I'll have it delete the extra files created during the process when it's done. (This part is already ready but I just haven't uploaded it. The removing the files before replacing them, I haven't done so, yet. Although this might not really be needed. Only the cleaning after part.)
...Maybe I don't know what you're talking about. lol
Explain it to me.

You need the XIP folder, os.nb.payload and romhdr.bin of YOUR device and the xip.bin and SYS folder of the rom you want to port INTO your device. Which device do you have? Tell me and I'll "draw" a map of what goes where.

Thanks for replying ivanmmj... I have a hermes, and I've been doing exactly that... my problem is when I go to build it, I get "An unhandled win32 exception occurred in buildxip.exe [2276]"
If I put in my older XIP build, buildxip works fine... so I'm lost now. Oh, and I'm trying to port the 19213 official att kaiser rom XIP.

You'll need:
OEM: hermes
ROM folder: Hermes (uncluding the XIP folder and all the other files)
SYS folder from kaiser (look for and remove MSkernel from this folder... I'm not 100% on that folder yet and future versions may handle that folder automatically)
Place the xip.bin from the kaiser into the prepare folder.
Now run the RunMe

I really appreciate your help ivanmmj, same thing again. It chokes up on BuildXIP.exe ...I have BuildXIP version 0.53 if that makes any difference. I tried with two XIP versions... 19209 and 19900. I'm about to give up.
Oh and I have Visual Studio 2008 installed, so I don't think it would be the runtimes... would it?

It might be.... I'll have to do some research...

Ok, I even installed the vs2008 runtimes, same thing.. I found buildxip v.54, same thing... then i moved the whole ROM folder (new XIP) out and put in the old 19209 one and it ran... so maybe there's something wrong with 19213 with hermes? ok, I give up. Thanks for your help!!

19213 porting to elfin
i'm trying to port the 19213 to my elfin, and after porting when i use bepe's kitchen, it gets stuck at this screenshot. anybody help!!!

custom rom development

hi
i need help to customize my rom by adding few programs as default, like icontact, pointui, etc which i use routinely
i have tested few available roms, which all are wonderful, i was hoping if i can add and delete few programs from it. i am able to dump the rom and make few registry tweaks using available 6.1 kitchens.
i am still trying to delete few applications from dump folder and add new cab files.. i need someone to point me in the right direction,
thanking in anticipation

Check out the PPCKitchen, it's very easy to use! You can build your own ROM from scratch, give it a try.

ok sure i will check it out, didn't heard of this kitchen before, will it work for my himalaya also

Jirrah...if you are cooking for Htc Himalaya...try out my Kitchen (its in my signature)..

yes ather i have tried your kitchen and infact using your dark rom, amazing work, but in your kitchen when we dump the nbf file, there are lot of dll folders and files, which confuses me and i cant understand where and how to add new cab files. i read about oem packages, but how to put with your kitchen, cant understand...
what about this ppckitchen and tofclock kitchen, are these for himalaya also.
however ather kitchen is very userfriendly for a noob like me
maybe if you can point me in right direction....
thanks

Well..its very easy once u get the hang of it
After you dump it...u will have lots of folder..to make them into OEM and SYS you will need Package tool by Bepe..but remember not all ROMs work with this tool
as far the OEM pacages are concerned..its a lil bit hard..first download the required OEM then extract it in a seperate folder...then delete the option.xml from it..then copy the files,shortcuts,RGU's,DSM's and paste them into the dump folder..dnt touch the initflashfiles.txt file yet !
when you reach the step where you get the prompt to edit the initflashfiles open that OEM's and copy the lines form it and paste it in the prompted initflashfile and then save it
MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE THE TWO BYTES FROM IT AFTER SAVING IT...ELSE ROM WILL NOT START
to remove those two extra bytes..open the initflashfile(the prompted one ) with any hex editor and remove the First two bytes named FF and FE by pressing the "Delete" Button and then save it and then FLash...
Im here if u need any help
Enjoy Cooking !!

[nevermind..good luck, anyway..]

Why do u need the OEM and SYS folders..are you porting a XIP or something ?

searching the forum it seemed to me that oem and sys folders are essential for custom development...is there any other way??
for starter i would like to add e.g icontact in rom, it is available as cab, so how do i add in dump folder and then compile . if i convert it ot oem package then how that can be added to dump folder...
also what should be the error fail size or maximum size of the rom
thanks

*Request* 6.1 ESP (0C0A) Lang package

Hello there, im trying to make a 6.1 rom with ESP lang but i can't port the one posted by Da_G be cause the rom maker cab sends me problems with some files.
I hope some of you can help me with the lang porting or any pack I can use.
I'm using Old style kitchen made by aeroflyluby

Since you are speaking about WM 6.1 i suppose that you got the right build from the right Da_G thread....anyway ,here is the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547314

Actually I'm using that package that you mentioned but no luck, when i change the files from the SYS folder the program "my build os" sends me an error anywhere and if y solve it (by deleting the problematic file) the rom maker (the .cab that calls the pack of tools) sends me an error while is rebuilding the files so I dont know what I'm doing wrong.
Do I have to use the SYS files with or without the 0409(ENG) files or i have to replace them?
Is there any proble if I cant find any 0C0A(ESP) OEM folder files?
I hope you can help me.
Regards.

If you are cooking for 0c0a then every 0409 folders must be left from your kitchen.
With 0c0a SYS you need 0c0a OEM at least OEM_Lang_0c0a otherwise your rom will not work.

Oh i see. So i can extract 0c0a OEM files from any 6.0 dump folder? or I have to find a new oem folder files for 6.1?
BTW i'm cooking for a BenQ-e72 so I can't find any rom in spanish except for the one that came with my phone (WinMo 6.0)

a_GWM 6.0 OEM should be work with WM 6.1 at least you will need a WM 6.1 Initflashfile.dat (it is in OEM_Lang), sometimes Da_G shares his build within the Initflashfiles for every language,check in that thread to see otherwise try to cook it with your 6.0 initflashfile.dat and check if something is missing in StartMenu.

Thanks for the fast answer. I'm going to look for the WM from Da_G but I don't remember if i have seen that thread before, and btw I will take some time after I can post any advance be cause I'm not at home. for now I can only ask things if I have any question.

I have tried what you said but no luck. the phone wont start. it just stay in black screen, i don't know what i'm doing wrong

can you xplain exactly where does your rom stucks? maybe is not a SYS trouble maybe is a XIP trouble due to not pòrting ok or maybe is the wince. nls WWE or any SYS pkg missed

Well the rom wont give me any image, it just shows me a black screen and the normal screen lights for the rest it does nothing.
Once i got lucky but I had problems with the Start menu be cause i wasn't able to see the icons, i think it was caused by the initflashfiles.dat but now I can't do it again

[Q] [PROBLEM][HERMES-TYTN]Default.hv cooked ROM

Hi,
I have a really strange problem.
I have two HTC HERMES, one good that I use and a second that I use only fot test purposes because it's not in good conditions.
I cook ROMs with "ROMDonalds Kitchen" and I have neved had any problem.
Since yesterday, every new ROM I cook, I have this problem:
if I don't edit "default.hv" the cooked ROM goes well in both my HERMES, but if I edit it, the ROM can only be loaded on the second HERMES (the one not in good conditions).
In the other HERMES after flashing, when I make the reset or even the hard-reset, the ROM begins to boot but then stops after the first splash-screen and the screen becames white.
I always flash from SD (hermimg.nbh).
What can be the problem?
Can be a problem of the good HERMES of the two I have?
Can be a difference in hardware between the good HERMES, even if they are identical from outside?
Many thanks !

Hi,
I don't understand why you need to edit default.hv but probably you have your reason.
It's better to leave it untouched to my opinion.
To edit the registry you can edit the .rgu in the specific package or create
a new package with the new registry overwriting the first package registry.
The second suggestion you can keep your tweaks in every rom you cook and switch the stock packages more easy.
What you are writing is indeed weird but this way you avoid errors in the .hv files.
Edit; btw, because Hermes is a pretty old device I'm asuming the kitchen you use is still using .rgu instead of .reg in the packages, latest kitchens mostly use .reg
.rgu and .reg files are same and containing the registry.
Grtz,
Laurentius26

yeah its true, what do you change in the d.hv? maybe you can tell us, what about to use another kitchen? or do your changes in app.reg ext pkgs or in oem packages to void edit it

I edit .hv files when I add or remove programs from the ROM.
I've tried also Ervius kitchen but when I try to dump my ROMs It gives me some errors...the only kitchen I was able to use is RomDonald's..
Can You suggest me another good one?
Thanks

Airxtreme's Oskitchen or Barin's OSbuilder, they are both in Chef Central here.
You don't need to edit .hv files as when you remove the package all registry of that package will be gone too.

I dont think ROMDonalds processes rgu files. If I remember correct, you have edit the hive files to use that kitchen.

Wow, that's gotta be a huge pain in the butt.

Yes, It is correct.
But the strange thing is that only one of the two Hermes I have, accepts the ROM after I edit the .hv files...
The question is:
Is there a separate memory where the hive is stored, and can this memory be faulty in one of my Hermes?

If you mean the fixed address - the answer is No. *.hv are files and files do not have the fixed address.

I've tried also Ervius Visual Kichen, but when I dump my ROM It gives me these two errors:
1- "Xipkernel's DSM not found! I'll create new...Maybe protected XIP (not portable !!!)"
2- "Boo.rgu in xip not found!Create new...But maybe ROM will be NON BOOTABLE !!!)"
What's wrong?
Thanks for all the answers You provide !
XDA, really a great Community !!!

Hi,
I don't know what you are doing to setup Ervius?
Are you importing a new stock rom into the kitchen?
The errors you can check:
Ervius kitchen/Rom/Shared/'Sys build'/MSXipkernel/
boot.rgu and the .dsm should be there.
Without boot.rgu and the dsm the rom won't boot.
Are all your desktop system files unhidden and vissible?

The visualization of hidden files is active in my PC, and I am trying to import a NON STOCK ROM to add or remove packages.
Ervius kithchen gives me the errors I described, and also OSKitchen gives me errors..
Can these kitchens import only STOCK ROMs?
I used ROMDonald's kitchen because It was able to edit a ROM that was already cooked...but the editing of .hv files is wrong...

I advise you to use a stock rom as you can test if everything is working ok.
After this you can do your modifications.
I know it's a bit of work but the advantage is to use a new kitchen which is much more configurable.
Editing .hv files isn't that good, but we talked about that already.
Another tip, I always zip my kitchen after I know a configuration is working and I flashed the rom succsesvol, before I continue to the next step.

It doesnt make sense why one device would run it, and the other one dont! Are you sure the hive files do not have any errors?
Try to flash a stock ROM first, then flash the cooked one. I know hermes has ext storage, and that can through errors...

That's the point...It's a nonsense..
I've already tried to flash stock ROM on both devices before flashing the cooked ROM, but It's always the same nonsense, one loads the ROM, the other doesn't...
At this point only a malfunction or a difference in hardware between my two devices could explain this strange behaviour
Don't know how to solve...

are you trying to recook my roms? hahaha just kiddin
everybody knows that we don thave bootable and full dumped roms from customized ones, due to DSMsif you want to make a roms looks like or be something like a... i recommend to ask for the kitchen many retired chefs on Legacy devices can share it to you or just dump the rom and xtract the things you want

Upgrading from 6.1 to 6.5

I have cooked a few roms for my diamond using the HTC WM6.1 1.93 release as a base. But i'd like to try Titanium and I gather i'd need WM6.5.
I have downloaded OEM xip kernel, SYS_23563_192DPI_0409, SYS_23563_Common and SYS_23563_XIP.
Please could someone give me some idea of what to do with these folders.... I use EVK 12.5.8

first thing is port the SYS (common and DPI 192),unpack this two archives then useing the Packer.jar you will create a new SYS for youre build,next you will need some OEMDrivers(the touch.dll for WM 6.5) and a OEMXIPKernel (the nk.exe for WM 6.5) and last but not least the MSXIPKernel,in ROM/Shared (just create a new folder and copy the content of SYS_23563_XIP.

Thankyou so much for your reply.
I have just built my first wm6.5 rom and will attempt to flash in a minute.
The only thing i'm left slightly confused about is a few bits in the OEM folder.
OEM/DIAMOND/COMMON/OEMVERSION/mxipupdate_OEMVERSION_100.provxml
It reads "ROMVersion" value="1.93.401.2"" Surely I should have a second file for wm6.5?
Also in ROM/DIAMOND there were a load of files in the OEMXIPKernel I downloaded that wanted to overwrite some existing files.... namely info.txt, ROMHdr.bin, xip.bin, os.nb.payload.
I didn't let them overwrite but do I need to keep both sets of files?

the part with the rom version, you can modified as you wish ,yo can put you're name in there(PS: dont modify the phones ID or things like that)...then,you don't need the info.txt files anymore,delete them(PS: don't delete them if you are trying to build a new XIP.bin).If it says to overwrite.overwrite them with the new ones.Because the xip.bin,os.nb.payload,and the ROMHdr.bin are the old build files.so you need to replace them with the new ones,but you need to make a backup,just to be shure...or if you dont have the xip.bin and also the os.nb.payload for the new build you have to create the xip.bin with XIPport.exe and then we use again the XIPport app to inplant the new created xip.bin in the OS.nb.payload...that its a little tricky even i can do it properly
