I see that the different cooks are using different builds of WM 6.1 when creating their ROMs. What are the differences? Why are there so many different builds available? Is WM 6.1 not "done" yet by Microsoft? If there anything as a WM 6.1 RTM?
Bepe is using build 19199
ASerg is using build 19209
swtos has build 19400
Pdaviet has build 19701
If build numbers on CE ROMS mean the same as build numbers in normal Windows and other software there should be lots of differences (bug fixes ect) between Bepe's 19199 and Pdaviet's 19701, but I cannot see any.
What gives?
I have Universal and got a question.
Can I use WM5 stock ROM to cook WM6.1 or 6.5?
Are there any dfferences between cooking from stock/base WM5 and from base WM6.1 to newer versions?
Yes it is, cause the core is different...
but you can go to the HTC Universal forum and download a 6.5 or 6.1 kitchen by any chef and get the OEM and ROM folders you will need the native 6.5 kernel too read the tutorials here to set or port a new device into OSkitchen or EVK
I am using ervius to build a rom, Everything works according to the kitchen except that it could not find the ppchanger. But that shouldn't be an issue. However, whenever I load it to the phone. It becomes stuck at boot. What am I doing wrong? Here's the build log.
Update: I moved the wincenls_wwe to my oem to no avail. still stuck at touch pro screen. Here's the latest build log after recmodding some files:
Everything seems to be ok and if it stucks in the first splash screen is issues related to XIP check your OEMxipkernel all the modules.... same format! check the MSXIPkernel all the modules same format!
i see you are addin manila but i couldn saw any manila pkg in OEM or EXT cause you dont have nothing in EXT and you just have OEM and SYS.. where did you get all of this OEm SYS and addons?
Thanks for your reply. All I did was dump a shipped rom. Then I tried to add a 6.5 build. The shipped rom had manila within the oem.
ok... first of all... wich device is it? wich rom was the original rom? 6.1 or 6.5? did you checked 6.5 real aku on the kitchen?
and yes dont forget to check the thread of how to make rom bootable..

Well I tried the Verizon XV6850_MR1_Upgrade_v2.0 for the Touch Pro. I am trying to create the rom for CDMA device (herman correct?) The original rom is 6.1 and I am trying to put the 21903 build. Yes I checked the aku 6.5. I've read the threads from others with the similiar issues. I've tried the recmod.exe in the Ervius tools folder, and I've also tried the recmod auto zip. I've downloaded and went through the list of sys files that can be recmodded with no luck. What steps exactly do I take to make sure that the oemxipkernel and msxipkernel are the same format?
Hi well it seems that you need to know this, if your dumped rom was 6.1 your kernel is not real aku 6.5 so you dont check that box in the kitchen

oh... so even if I am using 6.5 sys & xip.bin if I am bringing over the oem kernel from the base rom then I should NOT check it... Is that what you are saying?
Exactly!
If you dump the 6.1 STOCK ROM you will have xip.bin payload rromhdr.bin and OEMXIPKERNEL V6.1 and you will not check the the real aku6.5 on the kitchen
If you dump a 6.5 STOCK rom you will have everything in 6.5Version so you can check that checkbox... Why you dont take a look into the main stickie in repositories maybe you can find your Native 6.5 OEMXIPKERNEL and send to the hell the 6.1 version

So it doesn't matter if the 6.5 stock rom is not for cdma touch pros? As long as I choose the right dpi and of course remove gsm stufff then I can create a build for it? Am I right in my thinking?
yes the thing that makes the GSM or CDMA rom is in your OEMXIPKERNEL things and in your OEM folders
Wow!! This is some amazing stuff. Ok one more question, of late most builds do not include the oemxipkernels, and I've learned that you can generate this with xipport button in ervius. If i was to use this, and i port the os.payload & the build's xip.bin, should I check the box that this is a native 6.5 kernel?
Touch pro is the FUZE isnt it?
Why you dont ask in Da_G thread for the Native 6.5 TOUCH P kernel
i cant remember well but i guess i saw it
you dont need to do that the kitchen ports the xip.bin payload bal bla bla autopmatically for you
Just want to say thanks for your help. I find your insight very helpful. I will start from scratch and see what happens. Thanks again.
I have developed an OSKitchen that is available to download and use. This build is fully Android compatable and has the 576mb ram available as well.
The work the guys have done on Android is nothing short of brilliant. There are a lot of minimal roms out there as well, but this means that you can build your own to suit yourself!
It will allow you to customise your rom as you like if you want minimal rom fine, if you want a rom with sense fine In my build I have also included sense 2018 which I have also got working.
The kitchen build is 576mb ram and android compatable when used with a .50 radio.
See my thread here for full info!

I have now uploaded my kitchen that I use for my builds. These are now available fo you to download and use.
Kitchen includes os: 21869 and 23569 - I have now reverted back to the sense 2016 package as it seems much more stable than sense 2018. However you can download Sense 2018 package here! - This version is also Android Compatable and has the XDA_UC patch built in
Download kitchen Here:
The details of the kitchen are as follows:
Kitchen Details
OSKitchen Zero: 1.31
Base Image: Different bases mixed see below
OS: 21869 and 23569
Sense: 2016 and 2018
RAM: 576MB enabled when used with a .50 Radio!
In this version of osKitchen I have also included two example projects that are ready for you to simply build to test the kitchen. Simpy go to Open Project, double click on HTC Leo folder and select the OS you want to use.
The base has been made from TMOUS 2.10, nk.exe has now been updated and taken from TMOUS 3.14 and the extra packages have been taken from LEO 1.66 I have tweaked this kitchen build a lot and reduced the temporary os.nb file from 250mb to 8mb.
I have also tweaked other settings in the kitchen build as well.
I have updated OS: 21869 with Office 2010 and OneNote 2010 and .net 3.5. This kitchen build also comes with the latest MS MY Phone and Facebook applications as well.
This kitchen is WWE only - To enable the 576mb ram use a .50 radio. I suggest radio 2.14 as I have been getting the best results from it.
Kitchen Addons available!
Sense 2018 packages
I have created a sense 2018 addon for the rom. Simply download the RAR file and delete the existing Manila and StartIcon loader packages and reaplace them with the 2018 versions. There have been issues with the weather tab in sense 2018 not giving the correct location. I suggest keeping the 2016 version.
Download here:
XDA_UC Package
I have now added the XDA_UC package as part of the main kitchen build.

Please feal free to use this kitchen build to make your own ROMS. If you do descide to post them on XDA I would appreciate you mentioning that you used my build. I will continue to work on the oskitchen builds and updating them for use. If you want to see anything else in the kitchen builds please update the post with your requests!
I would like to thank V-B-N for providing me a share on vbnfiles.com all my roms and osKitchen builds are going to be stored here from now on
Thank you for your kitchen Ghost, i will use it to check against my own.
I just started out with ROM development today and needing the nk.exe to enable more RAM, also i am keen to see how you setup XDA_UC.
Appreciate the share mate, hopefully i will have something worth sharing one day too.
