Make Your Own ROM's With OsKitchen, Illistrated Guide!

Hi All, this is my TUT with lots of pics and easy to use instructions!
So, first things first.
Contents:
1. Porting A Supported HTC Device That Has H-SPL
2. Updating SYS & XIP
3. Acknowledgments
THIS IS NOT COMPLETED YET!!!
OK, so, Porting a supported device!
So first you need a few ingredients to get yourself started! You need:
1. A copy of Ondrasters new GUI kitchen, You can download it from this thread
2. A Stock ROM for your device
3. A windows based PC with a big proccessor
1. So when you have downloaded the Kitchen and Stock ROM, you need to get the NBH and call it something memorable and put it on your desktop, in my case, Rhodium_Stock.NBH.
2. Extract the kitchen to the shortest path possible, something like C:\\Kitchen\, it should look like this!
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Run OSKitchen.EXE
4. You will see this screen
You need to select your device and stock ROM
5. Click Next
6. Grab a coffe and a Donut (My preference is cream & strawberry), this bit takes a while, it is dismantaling your ROM for the drivers, systemfiles and apps, the drivers are known as the OEM, systemfiles are known as the SYS and the other stuff is known as the EXT (this includes manila, if your on AT&T, tv apps ETC...)
7. Eat a Donut in a happy celabrationol manor, you have got a kitchen!!!
Your kitchen will only cook your stock ROM that you used in your port but we will add to your menu in the next post!

OK, so you want to build your menu up. Now you will have dumped a WM 6.1 or 6.5 ROM, these have given you your drivers. but you want to test out the latest 6.5.5 ROMS, but don't like them. So, Make your own
So, a new ingredients list!
1. A nice, pre packed ROM package, availible Here
2. Or, if you are a slightly more advanced user, you can get a newer build from DA_G or Tom_Codon, DA_G is on XDA and Tom_Codon is on HTC Pedia, you need to port this yourself and i am not going to show how in this TUT as i have done it once and don't know if it works yet
Ok so now you have downloaded your Pre packed OS, you need to put it into the correct folders, so SYS -> SYS, OEM -> OEM ETC...
Now lets start!
1. So launch your kitchen, The folder should now look like this:
2. Select your device and build:
3. Pick your SYS packages, if it is marked as essential, DO NOT DISSABLE IT!!!
As you can see i disable certian things, like ADC, i don't use it as i have no Data Connection
3. Don't touch OEM, these are your drivers
4. Choose your SYS, if you like certian apps that are in CAB form, in the tools menu, there is CAB2EXT, you can guess what it does, i used it to intergrate the Win7 Boot animations:
So click start cooking and your off, Please posst your ROMS as a public release, what goes around, comes around

Aknowledgements
I give my gratitude to the following people:
1. Af974 - General solution finder
2. OndraSter - Kitchen Author
3. AirXTreme - Updated GUI Author
4. You - That is if you posted some feedback, good or bad, just say how i could make this better!

OK, you can post now, but THIS ISN'T FINISHED YET!!!!!!!!!!!

Very Nice Indeed!

Bookmarked page and sitting in the front of the class.

Glad you like, just finished first bit and little bit more to do
Thnx for all your support

Ok since I also use this kitchen I will help out a little. Aside from what you have stated above there are a couple of important things you have to do or the ROM will not boot even the stock ROM.
Make sure you Recmod the NTConfig.dll module in Notification Enhancement EXT package.
Also the ConcurrenceMgr.dll module should be recmodded but leave the ConcurrenceMgr.dll file inside the module. This is done automatically in EVK but not in this one.
Ther is a really easy way to port the new sys with a couple of tools and using the import sys function in the kitchen. This way everything gets put in the right folders and is very easy. I will post about this later today when I have more time.

Thanks, Didn't know this as i havent flashd a cooked rom from this kitchen yet

Could you add this to the step by step instructions?
Cheers.

Importing a new WM build from OsKitchen :
Download one of the build posted from Da_g, it must be a roll-up,this doesnt work with build ready for Ervius Kitchen.
Extract the downloaded build.
Run osKitchen....click on tab Import......and Import a new build.
In the new windows select the folder where you extracted Da:G roll-up....click sort.
restart OsKitchen and cook your new build.
Sorry i dont have a lot of time to make screenshoots right now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I guess this is a HD2 and Touch Pro 2 bug only,doesnt happen on QVGA devices with Mega EXT apps....not on my Kaiser though.
EDIT: I did a test and you need to recmod NTConfig.dll for QVGA too.....i didnt test it yet with Native kernel.

Import an already cooked ROM
After I run osKitchen with stock ROM, is it possible to import an already cooked ROM? Or is it not at all possible because of the missing .dsm files?
Thankyou for the great tutorial. (I'm at the back of the class - THE Back-bencher)

Hi Badwolve1
I want to get OS 5.2.21897 or higher with Manila 2.5.2012 1429 or higher.
Pisca did a release couple days ago. The battery draining seems to have improved with this combination. I just wanted to remove some apps.
My device is Topaz.
Any help would be much appreciated.
BTW thanks very much for the TUT. A great help

**** Warning ****
Needs HSPL. Otherwise you may brick your device
Don't flash Radios other than TMOUS radios. Otherwise, you may brick your device.
Disclaimer: Iam in no way responsible for bricking of your device by installing my ROM or by improper installations.

You are not wasting your time
I noticed you uploaded a 23xxx, 21xxx and 28xxx. I'm a big 21xxx fan, but don't know anything about the 28xxx branch. Is it new or stock? I remember seeing the number on my phone but I don't remember which phone or which ROM, LOL!
Your introduction / information posts don't mention that this is using Max Manila. I had to find that by clicking through a link.
Are you also planning to release a version with CoOkie's Home Tab? It's my current fave
Are you planning to use Tom's AutoInstaller? It sure made things a lot easier for me lately For me, the perfect ROM would be empty with tons of CABs to download and autoinstall, but maybe I'm just dreaming there...
I can't flash right now, still beta testing for b16b, but as soon as I can, I'll swing back by and give you a shot.
Welcome to Tmo HD2!

?? I think that maybe your confused Ive been running agents ROMS for the better part of the year. for rhodium and now leo. I dont think that any of these builds use Max Manila at all. and Im pretty sure that ALL of them have Cookie mod cooked in. But definately come try after beta testing cuz Agents roms are amazing.Crazy fast and the best battery life ive experienced on any leo ROM.

loving this ROM, thank you. Fast and stable Preferred the 6.5 over the 6.5.X. Not really liking the big softkey buttons.
Using it with radio 2.10.50.08_2 on my tmous hd2.

you need to dl "custom ruu" as well. use search, but some chefs include it with their roms so you might already have it.

yes, it's normal for this rom. just go to the phone settings and change the bands to auto, that should fix your problem.

i have become a fan of your ROMs on my touch pro 2 i wil try out your hd 2 ROMs thanks for your good work agent47

I too have enjoyed your roms on my tilt 2!! I have now got my hands on two HD2for aboot a month now and saw you were here making roms for HD2s. But I havent seen any news aboot updates or anything. So, i guess im just asking if there is any plans in work for updates?

good job on the rom

Good Job. Any update on 21911 based COM2 ROMs. Look forward to a release now

*OUT NOW* DRIOD/EVO/HERO/MOMENT Android ROM Kitchen

HERE IT IS
INFO​
Now what does this do. Well people we all hate having to re install our apps when we do new roms. We hate having to using programs like astro it back up and restore well this does it all for us.
How to use is simple place the applications you want in the APPS folder
Place the un zipped rom you want to install the system folder
Run the batch file and it will add the apps where its needed.
If it asked to hit a key click D and A when needed.
Zip up the 2 folders in YOUR-ROM and flash the rom if you get errors try re-zipping the rom again and install.
Future updates i want is this.
GUI screen
Ways to get updated roms that will download for people so they dont need to do anything but select like the online rom maker.
I will be getting this a lot better once I get more free time it only took me about an hour to get everything set up. It will be better soon.
I want to thank jombeewoof for the updated kitchen.

Bare can add apps to a rom and be able to be uninstalled.
1.0.1
Added kernel folder for custom kernels.
Batch file checks for existence of a kernel in your rom.
Option to choose the kernel that comes with your rom or one you've loaded into the folder.
Folder structure can live anywhere.
7zip added to build the zip. 7zip application included.
1.0.3
BUG FIXED **It has come to my attention that this does not work on XP due to the removal of choice.exe"
You can download the exe and place it in the folder. I'm working on another way to display the choices.
proof of concept to be able to pull kernels, roms, apps, bootloaders etc...
1.0.5
Currently mostly working, and now fully compatible with windows xp.
Also and express version that does not download anything, this is if you have already downloaded your rom and kernel.
That should work flawlessly at this point.

HELP​
Ok android guys I am over at SDX since I'm a moment guy but I have been really wanting to have a Android Kitchen just like we have for windows BuildOS. Looking at a few roms for the hero, moment, evo, and droid to me its looking like its the same basic set up for all roms.
My friend and I have been making a CLI kitchen but we would like to have a GUI screen like BuildOS.
So Im asking for some help with coders to help make this.
How we have it set up right now is.
One folder for the ROM you want
Another folder for all the apps you want in it.
if you want a custom kernel.
then it will make all the required files and ZIP everything up.
then you can flash it in recovery.
I want people to select what device they have
what apps they want
if they like a rom all the roms to that phone. that are updated every week.
Im willing to go around looking for roms for the phones if people can help me get this program up and running.
Can some people help? I want this to be a great as Build OS for use android people.
I'd like to have the app coded in html so that as the roms update it is a super easy fix. I have a folder on my web site with a lot of APKs that I can get links to also free apps no paid. And Im willing to even download even more if needed. Please help I want this to be the greatest kitchen ever.

First of all thanks for your hard work, I'd really like to see a kitchen like the Ervius Visual Kitchen for Android.
I'm no programmer, but if you need any help testing our whatever just let me know.
Regards

That looks like a good start! Very similar to the EVKitchen for WM. I did notice though that in your how to section on the first post it says to place the ROM you want to flash into the system folder, but there is no system folder that I can see in version 0.1.5
I have APPS, OLD-ROM, KERNEL, and YOUR-ROM. No system folder in the kitchen.

if you extract your rom you want there will be a meta-inf folder and a system folder take the system folder and place it in the old-rom folder. I just added a new version of the kitchen to have my friend look at and if so then you should be able to select a droid with a few roms and a evo option also with some roms. i will be updating more as i find direct links to rom not on sites like rapid share or mediafire places.
DC13

At this time im going to just focus on samsung phones since im not getting a lot of help from any one but samsung people. Once i get done with the samsung part depending on what i have option wise ill do droid or htc.
If you can code it would help me a lot as there are only 2 people and we really want this.
hope i can get this set up

I can't code to save my life, but I have a samsung phone (captivate) and volunteer for a tester if needed. Would love to have this.

Evo people are very helpful and they just put up an online based kitchen this could be helpful to that cause

ya i saw joey's kitchen go up about 2days ago. im trying to get him to help with a few things.
we did get the moment all set up now its just time to work on other phones. so for the next little bit to day i will be getting download links for a few more phones and add then to it. if you can help post up download links to roms. mediafire type sites some times have issues so if the rom uses it some times the rom wont download.

Ok so I was able to get some EVO/Droid/HERO roms/radios in this kitchen still would like to have a GUI screen but for now this will work. Uping tonight should have it out for tomorrow reason it takes so long is because im in the middle of the ocean on deployment.

I'm getting this error:
Error:
7-Zip cannot find the code that works with archives.

dang, windows only......

Wish it worked for LG Devices

Does anyone have a how-to for using this? I'd like to play around with it and I don't know where to start...

[Tips & Tricks]Free up more space for xperia ics roms

hi
i need a list of useless files to free up some space and also speed up our phone
i see cyanogen framework & lib & usr folders and compare it with xperia stock custom roms
this is the size of them:
cyanogen mod rom : framework=13MB & lib=45MB & usr=9.5MB
stock custom roms : framework=23MB & lib=64MB & usr=32MB
so i decided to free up some space but i need help to remove just safe files
also i think removing useless jar files from framewok folder can help to speed up our phones
can someone help?

thanks

this will really help a lot
but i think so u should post in general section

i found something about system/usr to free up it about 19-35MB
The difference is system/usr/xt9 , for me it is 23MB , cyanogen mod don't have this folder
it contains xperia keyboard dictionaries
here it is how to reduce size of it to less than 1MB and also speed up xperia keyboard and free up more ram and rom
1. if you don't need chinese input then delete the /system/app/textinput-chn.apk from the zip
2. Now lets deal with /system/usr/xt9/ delete all the dictionary files you don't need,
I use 3 languages polish, english, german so i keep only this files in the zip :
/system/usr/xt9/SEMC_810_r1-4_PLlsUN_xt9.ldb <-- PL stays for polish
/system/usr/xt9/SEMC_810_r1-15_DEusUN_xt9_2.ldb <-- DE = german
/system/usr/xt9/SEMC_810_r1-28_ENubUN_xt9_2.ldb <-- EN = english
all the other *.ldb files can be deleted
Size reduction 19.5 Mib -> 2.8 Mib
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and also i have duplicate files for one language ,i think we can remove one of them ( devs please say me can i remove or not ? )
for example for english i have two files :
SEMC_621_ENubUN_xt9_2.ldb
SEMC_810_r1-28_ENubUN_xt9_2.ldb
i have 46 languages but i have 92 files
hope this can help , i will waiting for any way to free up more space

All questions must be posted in Q&A, not Development nor General section.

Thread moved to General. Keep in mind that some applications (walkman, radio etc.) need specific libs to work. You can delete few libs to make your ROM lighter but some apps might be borked because of that.

I suggest keeping both
I think the 810 is used by JB keyboards
And 621 by ICS keyboards
(not sure)
Btw get the new honami keyboard and u can delete the whole xt9 folder
Edit: the honami keyboard is useful for rom cooks as well, since each user is able to download their own dictionary, or just work with no dictionary, like i do, i have kept no dictionary, but every word that i use is saved, hence i still get many suggestions
Edit 2: also to free up more space u can delete all sounds from /system/media/audio/alarms,notifications,ringtones except the default ones (alarm.ogg,notification.ogg,xperia.ogg)
And also delete all wallpapers from /system/etc/customization.... Except 1 pair
*Do not delete whole folders as it may cause bootloop*
Edit 3; if u dont use face detection, and for another 30mb, u can delete /system/vendor/pittpatt
I havnt tried this tho

Update 5
Introduction
Maybe it's not too late for a Custom ROM for S5830, but I just want to share this ROM with you.
The name is SGA RAINBOW, and is for GT-S5830 model also known as “Cooper”. It’s based on Stock firmware – GB 2.3.6 XWKTM and is a stock Custom ROM.
There is nothing original added, but is stable, nice, no fake, no warez. I use it every day.
I know, were made some more Stock Custom ROM for S5830, some of them quite good. I have a list with them, but is not here the place to say that would be the best.
I hope it will find some users that will test it and like to use it on the phone, as I like.
This is not a Copyrighted ROM.
You can use any part of my ROM, but just list my name in your credits.
Warning
This ROM should be applied to witch having the model Ace GT-S5830, and is not for model GT-S5830i.
If you update in a GT-S5830i model, you will brick your device.
This ROM is not for very beginners. If you are a very beginner, please first to get comfortable to other Custom ROM's, backups, and "how to flash a firmware with Odin". You can also wait to appear some reviews here.
Disclaimer
If you do not know what you're doing, try to learn first.
If you understand something, you'll understand more. If you do not understand, try first to understand, search on Google, read, learn.
I just trying to expose something from my experience.
You do not have to follow my advice if you're not sure that what you want to do, is what you can or need to do.
Do it at your own risk.
I am not responsible for what you do with your phone.

Flashable zip Fonts
Because the font it is important for how it looks a ROM, I thought to post some fonts of which you can choose.
The fonts are:
GT-S5830 Default font - to return to the GT-S5830 original font.
Laconic font - to return to the Laconic font, in case that you changed.
Lastwaerk font
Rosemary font
How to install:
Download archive, it contains four CWM flashable zip fonts.
Unzip downloaded archive on PC.
Choose the flashable zip font you want.
Put flashable zip font on SDCard.
Go to CWM and install it.
Done.
Note:
Keep in mind that the new flashable zip font, will become the default font.
In order to avoid some errors, if the default font was changed in Settings -> Display -> Font style, you must first return to the default font, and then install a new flashable zip font.

Thank you.

For your information the launcher is Android:SMSAgent-AHY [Trj] and many know, the download is interrupted, it's not a false positive. Your theme looks interesting and can be a little translucent. This phone still exists ?
One a good job launcher : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-ace/themes-apps/cm7-touchwiz30launcher-t2883929
- mod and write false, repack, sign for a statusbar translucide (if you understand)

If someone finds a malware in launcher, I can change it.
Otherwise, I do not intend to put another, especially recommended.
And if I will change it, I will choose which will be.

I think he is trying to tell you that the included launcher has malware in it and look at the launcher link he has posted and modify it for transparent statustbar and repack it into the rom

Maybe it's just a bad translation, as he is not a native english speaker.
However, he is right, cooee launcher is infected with Android:SMSagent-ahy. That's why I stopped using cooee launcher and other mods

I have not tested cronmod on this ROM.
