[release] Linux ROM Kitchen

Linux ROM kitchen is a tool that allows you to cook your own Windows Mobile ROMs for HTC Windows Mobile devices. This means you can extract the contents of a Shipped or Dumped ROM, and add/remove files or Packages into the ROM.
It consists of several tools, most of them can be run separately from command line, altough they are all nicely put together in a GUI.
Basic knowledge of ROM cooking is expected, it helps if you have played with similar kitchens available for windows before, and know a bit of the internals of WinCE OS.
Use it with CARE. If you don't know what you're doing you can brick your device. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

thanks pof!
i have one question:
does this have as much functionality as, for example, _alex_'s?
now all i need to do is figure out how to sync my kaiser with evolution...

Help me pof:
i have installed ubuntu 8.04 for install the linux kitchen but i have a problem because when i try to do that return me an error:
is impossible to install one component because not exist and that is a "wine".
why pof
thank and great for a good job

If you are using Ubuntu, you can now install Wine by clicking this link. Alternatively, you can install by going to Applications->Add/Remove and searching for Wine.

yes, almost the same functionality as other windows kitchens. It's compatible with exisiting OEM packages from other kitchens too.

Ubuntu 64bit
FYI this does work on Ubuntu 8.04 64bit.
Just install with sudo dpkg -i --force-all name.of.deb
It gripes about some dependencys but they can all be found with apt-get.
Great job pof, you have made my day. No more more borrowing my gf laptop top just to flash my phone.

Drag and Drop doesn't work on Windows Vista / Windows 7 if you elevate a program to ADMIN , ran into this problem with my program.

hmm, I've been able to get it to work just fine with and without admin. UAC should still be off for that to work.
Looks pretty useful. I was thinking of a way to get an APK install over a network/internet IP rather than locally. This looks more practical

Windows 10 Technical Preview / Onda V975W tablet

Decided to try the latest Windows 10 preview on Onda V975W. Works pretty well with old Windows 8.1 drivers.
I think new Windows 10 UI is way better than 8.1. A pleasure to use with new window manager and notifications area.

Microsoft promised to support ARM devices for Windows 10, but as of now, support isn't there yet.
Also, Devices that will support Windows 10 must have their bootloader written to support Windows 10.

I doubt that is going to be happening. They said that there will be no Windows 10 upgrade for Surface Windows RT users - so if they wont even support their own products, then there is no chance they will support other ARM based devices. If you bought a Surface RT, you're stuck with that OS unfortunately.

As far as official statements go, Microsoft never reported to kill support for the Windows RT line... They however stated that they are working on an update to the Surface which will have some of the features that Windows 10 has and will have.
I don't think they will ever kill the support for the RT line.. If they do, the that is just pure BAD Marketting. They will however do something that will make the new RT line OS still exist but in the Different name that doesn't outcast it from the rest of the Windows 10 line.
Maybe they would develop a Windows 10 variant that would be usable on the surface and the Windows phones.. And still call it Windows 10 <variant/edition>. It's good Marketting.
I cannot, however prove anything yet seeing as the Windows 10 for Phone technical preview hasn't come out yet.

Thanks for the responses,
Did you hear about ChangeMySoftware which is allowing users to convert their any android to Windows 8 ?
I got the feedback from them that said they will be adding win10 soon .
My question is it gonna be worthy if so what are the differences between real Win 10 and other Win10 (ChangeMySoftware)
Thanks again !

If it uses Intel Atom CPU, there shouldn't be any problems.
Though keep in mind, that you may need Windows drivers for wifi ar other chips.

Wow, that is nice. I think in your blog you are right, it is still somewhat half baked.
Why would the mod remove the link? That is so weird...Windows 10 is preview... There is no pirating involved... it is free to download.

Just reverted back to Win 8.1

Found how to install English Windows 8.1 with Bing using original OEM key from Chinese version in the process too.

Thanks Originals, Do you have any guide / post / link which will explain what are the things we have to keep to make sure for the win10 / 8.1 successful installation on Tablet ?

Please let us know how you did that. What image did you use and how did you extract the key and use it for the new install? I suppose its good to have a recovery partition but since these tablets don't have them, reinstallation is a hassle.

I haven't made Win 8.1 key backup, because officially you can't get or install Windows with bing anyway. I was planning to use recovery partition.
Though as I have found out later there are leaked Windows with Bing builds on torrents. It will install and activate automatically on all devices, that originally came with Win 8.1 with Bing, you don't even need to enter a key. I checked SHA1 match on MSDN, though I can't provide exact link to image here.

No, everything works fine, even better after fresh install.
I'm using Windows 8.1 with Bing x86. and Onda V975W drivers pack. You can find all info and links in my Win 10 thread.

Is there any bugs on onda tablet?

Only Win 10 bugs like on all PCs.. There are no Metro IE, some Metro apps runs really slow or lag.

Slow & 128Gb MicroSDcard isn't recognised
I've just installed Windows 10 B10074 on my Onda, but it's terribly slow. Also the 128Gb SDcard isn't recognised. Too bad, I've expected the SDcard to work properly. Anyone else with the same issue?
Edit: I've just noticed that the battery indicator isn't working as well.

Hi thanks for using the app, but i need info so i may fix the issue in the next builds:
- On which Windows were you trying?
- Do you get an error? or just not activated?
--- If you get error please provide a screenshot for the error (with expanding "More details" section / copy and paste here "More Details" section so i could know where is the error coming from)

Sorry, I'm using Windows 10 Pro. No error, it actually tells me that activation was successful with product key blah blah blah. Going into to settings I'm not activated, even after a reboot. Trying the program again nets the same results same product key listed.

thanks for feedback.. i'll add the solution to the app in the next build
(the solution was tested by me and i have an activated windows 10 pro)
by the way, same product key: yes it's the same, it works on any windows 10 of any machine but it needs an add-on then you will have a life-time activated windows 10 with a secure activator
the missing 3rd PARTY add-on in v1.0-Build1 is the problem, so i'll add it in the next build

Hi,
probably OneDrive found KMS-Pico inside my app and saying it's a virus, while here on my computer i'm using the whole app and nothing is a virus
to use KMS-Pico you have to disable security programs, (as KMS-Pico makers say)
and Virus is not always damaging, KMS-Pico is installed on my computer... nothing is damaged, i activated windows using KMS-Pico + using my app, 3 times, as screenshot shows "Windows is Activated"
Mirror downloads are coming soon

for you, activator doesn't activate? or download is not working? if downloads are still not working.. please wait till tomorrow and check them again, they probably will be working as soon as possible.

i used my activator to activate my windows 10 because i was not able to upgrade by an error

UBports is a team of developers and a meeting place for developers that wish to port Ubuntu Touch to as many devices as possible, this is a place where developers can talk to other developers, learn from each other and help push Ubuntu to more devices as a team, or by yourself but with community support if you wish.
If you’re a user of a device without much developer knowledge this is also a place you can help out, you could try to link developers together if you think they could help, you could send a link, or help by throwing a bone, donate devices or money for things such as OTA (Over The Air) servers, web server, CI (Continuous Intergration) servers and other money costing services and items!
A user can also help out if they spot a bug or have any issues with their Ubuntu Touch Device, there are many developers and users that would love to help you with any problem you have! This is a place for users and developers to Play, I mean Port nicely!
