complete noob (at cooking)
followed various guides/how-to's etc to set up ervius kitchen with a view to cooking my own roms. Just to check, took a stock rom into the kitchen and then rebuilt it back into an nbh file, there is now about a 40Mb difference between the two files so now I'm not game to say I've done things right. looked through the forum for answers and the only one i can find that might explain this is maybe the new nbh file is optimised. Is this safe to assume? how can I test the rom without bricking my leo?
happened to me the same thing and I gave up Like you, I want to dump a official rom to add some programs and customization but everytime the generated image file (.nbh) was smaller than before. Flashing it left my phone without sense and all programs that came by default with official rom, not mention about those I added myself.
its normal
official roms are not compressed, built roms are compressed, hence the size difference
It seems a little confusing to begin with, this ROM Cooking. But it gets better as you struggle through it. I use the OsKitchen and have cooked sys 23659 successfully. Go ahead and give it a try. I can help you with what little I know.
what i really don't understand is how u port to 23569... been reading for a while... too much info man..
Depends on the Kitchen you use. I use OsKitchen of Airxtreme and it works for me! Once you decide the Kitchen you want to use, then it becomes less tedious. Only one path to follow and learn.

yeh OsKitchen from Airxtreme... just read your post on that thread..haha great! See that u first tried out 6.5... then 6.5.5.. which base did u use??? 2.13 TMO ROM???
Yes sir. That was what I used. A lot of packages were from Chucky's kitchen. Some were converted to Ext's. Like I said, I am no expert, but things seem to be working fine till now. No major battery drain either. So i guess i have been lucky so far!
I have recently started to build my own rom for the HD2. I have spent a lot of time getting a stable osKitchen build working with windows 6.5.5. I had some problems getting sense to work properly with the newer versions of windows.
I now believe that I have a stable build and am in the process of buildiing my first rom which I will post shortly.
I have seen that a lot of people have been having problems doing this as well. Now that I have got kitchen working I thought I would share it with people. You can download it from here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UR5N4M4R
It contains the following
Base ROM: HTC HD2 default HTC stock rom version 1.66
OS: 24619
Sense: 2.5.2014 - I have tried using 2016 but can not get this working yet
osKitchen: 1.30v3
This rom compiles and builds correctly. I have flashed my HD2 and it seems to run properly. In a previous thread I stated that I could not get Internet Explorer to work correctly, I have now corrected this error.
This is a completly un-modified kitchen build, which I am happy for you to download and use. If you do upload your ROMS to XDA please just mention that you used my kitchen build.
The one limitation is that it is built for English, WWE only. I hae not been able to build any other languages into the rom.
If you want to use another phone other than the HD2 with this build, simply download your stock rom and extract using the wizzard, Go into your ext folder and delete all manila folders and the start icon folder and then copy the manila and start icon folders in from the leo ext folder.
I can see people have started to download and use this. I would be keen to know how you get on!
Giving it a go with a different device - will let you know how I get on
Ready to Cook Stock OEM Kitchens​
It seems there is a bit of interest in Stock OEM ROM Kitchens all ready for cooking using osKitchen Zero, so I thought I'd offer up a few that I have working currently. I'm using the latest osKitchen Zero v1.33.5 found HERE because it's the BEST Kitchen out there IMHO.
I also want to take requests for Kitchens. I will do my best to make them work, but I cannot promise they will. I don't have all the devices, so I cannot test them, but I will post both the Kitchen and a ROM cooked from it for testing. At this time, I only know how to work with Windows Mobile Devices, so lets stay with that until further notice.
These will be Completely Stock and Unchanged. You can make your own modifications to them. I just wanted to give a jumping off point to those who are having trouble getting a working Kitchen.
For questions about cooking and modifying your ROMs, please refer to the thread for your device. This Thread is only to take requests for Kitchens and Posting the final results for your use. I will not go into how to Hard SPL each device, again, check your device thread for more info on that.
I'm going to start off with 4 Kitchens and we will build from there. - ATT Tilt, HTC Trinity P3600, HTC T-Mobile HD2, and HTC MEGA.
If requesting a Pre Built Kitchen, Please give me a link to the Stock OEM ROM and any extra info you think might help. I suggest finding the Latest OEM ROM.
All my ROMs and Kitchens are Custom Packaged for easy use.
The Kitchens are Self Extracting. Just Run the EXE file with my SuperMan (SuperSport) icon to extract the kitchen to the current directory.
The ROMs will be AutoFlash files. Again, simply Run the EXE file with my SuperMan (SuperSport) icon to Automatically Extract and run the RUU Updater.

This one is larger because I've included 23504 and 23569
I'm interested but i have a question. Would you be prepared to to a HD2 rom with XDA_UC included and configure it in such a way that XDA_UC is launched on first boot? I've played with oskitchen before and got good results but this little trick is something that always evaded me.
As for links. You could use the tmous version you have already as a base as that would work with all Leo's
Just wondering, if my device has no HSPL, will this work too? Or if there's only SSPL? Or really nothing?
I mean, it can't work with a not-HSPL'd device, unless you was able to crack ALL SPL's out there?

You want XDA_UC with default settings? I can do that for a custom Kitchen. Will post when it's ready.

I don't believe you can flash a ROM to any phone that does not have HSPL flashed to it. I can pull out the SSPL, but I don't think that will be all you need. What device are you trying to cook for?

I cook for HTC Photon (HD Mini), but don't worry, I'm using OSBuilder now. However, I used OsKitchen before and I liked the CFC thingy. In OSBuilder I had to patch Manila manually
How do you mean "pull out the SSPL". Isn't that stealing of the work that DFT did? And SSPL is diffirent for each device, I can't imagine you want to look for all devices if they have HSPL or SSPL and implement that?

Yeah that would do i could probably work it out from there but if you fancy setting it up so it looks for stuff to run from \storage card\xda_uc that would save me some time.
Thanks dude.

If you can send me a link to the Latest ROM, I will convert it to osKitchen Zero if you like. Sounds like your phone is all ready for flashing, so it should work fine.

Will do exactly that. I will place the download link in this post to keep the number of posts down.
EDIT: Instead of posting a complete Kitchen with XDA_UC included, I've attached the XDA_UC EXT Package that will do what you are wanting. This package will work with ALL of the Kitchens I will be posting. Unzip the file and copy the folder "SuperSport Base XDA_UC" to the following Folder in the Kitchen:
"HD2 T-Mobile osKitchen Zero v1.33.5\Sources\Devices\HTC Leo\EXT Packages\HTC Leo Packages"
Once copied over, restart the Kitchen and find the new EXT package in the EXT Packages Tab. I hope that made sense, my mind is tired today.

My phone can flash custom ROMs thanks to SSPL. But it looks like you don't get my point I meant that if you give us a kitchen made for our phone, you should eiter include a manual how to flash HSPL or flash custom ROM with SSPL. Or you should edit every kitchen you make for each phone that SSPL or HSPL is included in the RUU your kitchen has included (or generates).

I think I understand, and I'm sorry for being dense. My mind is tired today, as I mentioned above.
If you cook a ROM using this Kitchen, after it completes building the ROM, it will ask if you want to open the ROM folder. If you say "Yes", then inside that folder, I will have the RUU Updater included so you can flash the ROM. Everything needed to flash will be there, except for HSPL. Each Kitchen will have the correct SSPL RUU Updater included for that device.
I figure people will already have HSPL taken care of at this point. Consider this an advanced thread, not for complete beginners. If someone does not have their phone HardSPL'd, or does not know how to do that, then please check the threads for your phone model to find out how to accomplish that. This thread will be solely about releasing Working Complete Stock OEM Kitchens that can be modified any way you like.
Is there any chance you can make one for the Topaz?

I'd be happy to try if you get me a link to the Latest Stock ROM.

UPDATE: Found a ROM from Europe WWE. RUU_Topaz_S2_HTC_WWE_2.53.405.5_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.44etc.25.35_4.49.25.91_Ship.exe Downloading Now!

Thank you for this, I think? Looking at that list is a little overwhelming. I'll slowly work through it, but I'd like to do requests first since I know they will be used first.

First of all I have to say that I like your idea.
But do you really think is useful to a have a kitchen based on a stock rom wm 5.0 or 6.0 now? There is a very long road to drive to achieve a wm 6.1/6.5 cooked rom since that...
You could also post an almost updated profile (oem/xip/sys) to integrate the stock rom.
Surely I could also post my old trinity rom, 6.1 sys/nk 19965 based on ervius kitchen 1st version, with opal manila2d, but it is 0410. Probably a wwe edition here would be better...
Ciao
P.S. I'm curios to try to import my old trinity kitchen into Oskitchen. I haven't trinity any more but would be nice to test the same 3 years old release made today with these new and a lot more advanced kitchens
OsKitchen converted for Omnia 2 (i920)?
Well, I use to cook with OsKitchen for the Omnia 1 and now having issues adapting to the new kitchen. On OsKitchen's thread it says it can be adapted for other devices with some processes I'm not sure how to do...
Here's a link for the latest update for the Omnia i920:
http://ars.samsung.com/customer/usa...ID=2&PROD_SUB_ID=557&PROD_ID=561&AT_ID=226255
As far as I know, we only need to cook the PDA part, not CSC otherwise it won't load, and I'd be happy to test anything out that you may need. I know there are a few others interested in this type of kitchen for the Omnia 2 (i920 CDMA-not sure about the i8000 GSM)
Thanks and I hope to hear back from you!
Sorry if I misunderstood your post too, it's late and I'm tired, but my take is you can make OSK fit an OEM ROM basically no matter the device?! If you need more information, please PM me!
ONE last thing, if you build this kitchen, will I be able to edit it with new SYS/XIP, etc? can I build it off of the kitchen you create?

I will try to get a chance to build a ROM from the kitchen tomorrow and let you test it. If it works, I will post the kitchen. And yes, you will be able to use the kitchen and modify it any way you like.

I have question for you. Do you know if there is an nbh or NB file inside that update program? I tried to extract the contents, but was unsuccessful. Is it possible to start the update, then grab the NB or nbh from your temp directory? Since I don't have the same phone, it won't start the extraction process for me.
To start with, I couldn't post a reply in the topic forum because I am still new apparently.
I am wondering if there has been any news regarding the bugs on this rom? The only bug that I am aware of that is stopping me from putting on my phone is the camera bug. I need my camera.
Question 2: Is there any other Roms that share a basic Gingerbread OS with something similar to sense? I don't want a rom that tweaks everything from looking like the standard gingerbread w/sense. What I really want is a rom that is close to the look of the evo and gingerbread. But something that clocks speed. Any recommendations?
Sorry for the stupid questions, I have been reading and reading and reading and I can't find a single post that talks about definitions and recommendations for users. Its hard for the normal noobs to grasp the lingo in place
Thanks again
hi,
gingerbread with sense is still a work in progress,and no the camera does not work properly yet.....
otherwise,please check here:

Hello there!
I have been trying to cook a ROM for my LG Fathom. I am using ervius visual kitchen aka LG Kitchen 2.3 First of all, I have general computer skills. I have updated firmware and stuff. But to be honest, I am new into "cooking ROM."
Well, my problem is;
When I use, latest Ervius kitchen (12.6.3), I click dump nbh,nb payload and I select payload file that I have created by OSNBTOOL from original rom.bin file. It works some then gives me an error;
h t t p ://img13.imageshack.us/img13/9453/1263bo.jpg
It tells me I should have a ruu signed nbh. But unfortunately I dont have it. And I have no idea how to obtain it. I have original .bin ROM file (Actually it is decrypted)
When I try to use an older version of the kitchen which is prepared for direct cooking, (here everything needed for cooking is prepared according to author) I am getting another message;
h t t p://img249.imageshack.us/img249/2095/1082n.jpg
So, my questions can be idiotic since I have no real experience. What is wrong here?
I am using a windows 7 64bit machine. Visual C 2008 and other stuff is installed. I tried with windows xp by virtual machine, but no success.
Any help would be appreciated!
Lg roms are a bit special, and can't be extracted like it's done on htc phones. Try using my kitchen (link in my signature).
