So far i copied all the files into the appropriate folder but what do i do with the boot image. I tried flashing with the files in place but it did not take. Any advice?

You probably should ask this in the EVO Android Development forum. However, since I'm here, I'll do my best.
The boot.img should be at the root of the folder structure.
../NewFolder/system
../NewFolder/META-INF
../NewFolder/boot.img
You then have to zip the CONTENTS of ../NewFolder and sign the resulting zip with something like EasySign (http://android.grdlock.net/index.php?&direction=0&order=&directory=Extras).
Or you can just load the original ROM into dsixda's kitchen in the original_update folder (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246), select '1' to create a work folder, copy the files into the correct locations, and then select '99' to zip and sign the ROM. It will then be in the OUTPUT_ZIP folder. The kitchen walks you through these steps really well, if you read the prompts.
Then flash the ROM.
I want to take a custom rom, extract it, then port it, and then zip it again to install in CWM.
How to do it?
When I try to extract a custom rom, there are several files that get error.. (like files without extension in folder bin/) how to extract them too?
When I am ready porting the rom, how do I zip it again to install in CWM?
Hey guys,
I just started the long journey of android rom development/cooking using an app called Android Kitchen, and I'm looking for some help from the more experienced. I extracted a custom rom folders (for personal use), and started to edit some of the extracted files (replacing and deleting), but I'm quite lost when it comes to merging flashable .zip folders (like lockscreens and mods) with the extracted rom file.Should I copy and paste whats inside the flashable zip into the rom file? Or should I use note editor to copy what's inside the mod file itself, copy the text, and add it to the original one? I really want to add these mods through this app rather than recovery mode. And can I emulate edited roms on my computer rather than risking my phone?
Thnx...
I'm a new developer and have applied all my tweaks and edits via root explorer so far. is there a way to change a CWM backup into a flashable rom file for other users to flash? I searched around a bit, but couldn't seem to find anything about it.
Goto this thread here
follow all the setup to install cygwin & kitchen
once it's all setup you can plug your phone in and create a rom
follow the guide (second method) for creating the rom system files by extracting the system folders from your phone (rom you are using)
you can then turn it into a flashable rom zip
I think you just basically extract the CWM backup, then repackage them in 1 zip file (except for the androidsecure backup).

YOU CAN USE THE CWM BACKUP IN KITCHEN YO MAKE A CUSTOM ROM.BUT YOU CAN'T ABLE TO USE THE BACKUP FILE DIRECTLY AS A CUSTOM ROM.
OTHER HAND YOU CAN MAKE ALSO THIS BACKUP AS A DEODEXED STOCK ROM BY DEODEXING THIS BACKUP FILES.

PRESS THANKS IF I HAVE A BIT SUCCESS TO HELPING YOU.....:thumbsup:
Hmm thats how i make roms that i dont post here though....
In tthe cwm backup u have system.rfs.tar
Extract it using 7zip
U get system.img or u might get a system folder....
Extract the img file using Magic Iso
Open magic iso
In menu..
File>open
Select ur system.img
On the left side pane right click on the disk icon and click extract.select ur destination
Once the files are all extracted copy all of them in a folder named "system"
Now get a meta-inf folder from a custom rom and zip
Meta-Inf and system folder together
U have ur rom...
Ill create a video tutorial for this tomorrow as many people ask this question in different threads of devices....

Hey,
I am having trouble getting my rom to flash.. Here are the steps I've taken:
1: Downloaded Beans base and extracted it.
2: Fired up Archikitchen and started new project (create rom zip from rom zip)
3: Copied extracted rom (Beans base) into project folder created by Archikitchen.
4: Added mods and removed bloat from app and priv-app in project folder.
5: Went into Archikitchen and pressed bb to build rom zip.
6: Went in to OUTPUT folder and extracted rom zip I just created.
7: Copied META-INF folder from Beans base into rom I extracted from OUTPUT folder and replaced what was built with Archikitchen.
8: Compressed my rom back into a zip and moved it to my external sd card.
Depending on what I try, Ive gotten an updater script error, updater binary error, as well as just error flashing in safestrap on rom slot 1.
I have successfuly flashed Ricks rom and Beans base rom so I know its not my safestrap.
Ive tried Beans base meta folder as well as using Ricks base meta folder etc. and always get some errors. Please help by letting me know if Ive missed a step or what I could try out.
Mister has been a ton of help but we cant seem to figure out why it wont flash.
I have a rom under 700mb currently id like to upload after I can get it to flash. I havent messed with anything that would affect the flashing of the rom and all changes have been in app folder and priv-app folders only.
Thanks in advance for any help you could provide!
