Sorry if this question sound stupid to you, but I'm a newbie trying to play with my Mini.
I'd like to add some cab file from another ext ROM.
How do I install the extended ROM, which I got from ftp.
If I just click it on my mini, it always says something like the file is in ROM !
Should I put it in a MMC & how do run it ?
Can't we install all the extended ROM files in other version to another ?
Or just specific files ?
Hey guys,
I just switched to a new ROM for my Kaiser and unfortunately some of the sounds I was accustomed to are gone. Notably the alarm, which is something I must have since I am used to waking up to that.
Does anyone have any idea to get the sounds from a ROM?
I used Raphael for Kaiser
switched to Garmin
You might be able to dump the ROM to a kitchen and sniff through there, but really, if you haven't customized the new ROM too much, it'd just be simpler to flash your old ROM back, grab the sounds you want from the Windows Folder, flash back, and replace files as needed.
i would go with what travito said, you would need to dump the rom and use a kitchen to extract the sounds......
i completely agree with above 2 posts
but heres one alternate way if you dont want to flash again
1 extract the old ROM which you were using
2 now in the dump folder search *.wav
3 you will get all the sounds in the old ROM
4 now sekect the 1s you want and put them in your new ROMs windows directory
5 alarm sonds are generally named alarm1,2,3 etc.....
I just used winrar to open up the rom archive.
I found the sound files in /system/media/.../
Kind Regards
I want to do a simple job: backup my actual kaiser rom, modify my rom adding/removing some application, then cook the new modified rom.
I was looking for a lot of time inside the forums for a guide/tutorial how to dump my actual KAISER rom , then modify it adding/removing some applications, then cook the new ROM to be flashed.
After a look around I was able to dump correctly part000.raw,part001.raw,part002.raw and part003.raw.
After I downloaded kaiserkitchen_01_20_08 and installed it.
Then I downloaded Alex 5.1 OEM packages and copied into c:\kaiserkitchen\packages.
Then I downloaded Alex 5 HT ROM 3.03 and copied into c:\kaiserkitchen\sys and c:\kaiserkitchen\sys
I moved .raw files in c:\kaiserkitchen\BaseROM
Then I started kaiserkitchen.cmd. I followed instructions to extract a dumped rom and cook it. The black window worked for some minutes and finished with message : Ignore any error while deleting files ! followed by 10 lines with message Impossible to find specified file...
All seems to be ok here. Yes ?
From here I can not go on, because when I launch BuldOS+PackageTools I can see only some applications that I imagine are from Alex oem, but I want to work only with my applications and I can not find them ! Where are applications installed in my actual ROM. How can I use them to rebuild my own ROM ?
Please, help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey all,
I have been around here for some days now and got almost every Info I was looking for but now there is something...
I downloaded a Rom (Shipped and rebuild I think) and opened it with the HTC Image Editor. There I took the "os" and there the "imgfs"
There I found all the files, some where already known (the weather xml i.e.) and some I just messed around with after I extracted the files.
My Question now is : If I modify any file in this "imgfs" will it still be possible to flash this Rom ? And, is there a file that tells the Rom what to install ? Like a Autostart File or something ?
The Point is that I downloaded many very nice Roms from here and so on but every Time I find things I don´t need or I don´t want. So it would be nice to build my very own, small Rom just for me
I am 100% sure those Questions were asked already but I searched and searched... I really hope that someone here will grab his time and help me poor dummy out
Nice, very nice Forum !!
Thanks for any constructive Answer
Hey everyone!
On the rom I currently use there are about 20 apk's I have no need for. What I do is download the rom, and individually delete the apk's before flashing the rom. The thing is I flash quite often (cheeky, I know ) and this is getting quite frustrating.
Ideally I want a script that does this all for me. I found one but it seems be for running on the phone, after the apk's have been installed. Does anyone know how I can create a script for the PC that does this before I even install the rom?
Thank you for any suggestions.
Oh and here's the thread I found that looked relevant...

Over what OS?
If in Windows (or any M$ OS, incl. DOS) you can make a batch file.
My file is adjunted as example (modify as you like, put in the root dir -obviously to the unzipped ROM- and run. Rezip and maybe re-sign)

Thank you. This is exactly the kind of thing I am after. If I had of been born just a few years earlier I would probably know all about batch scripts. Fortunately, I just missed the DOS days!
Anyway, I puzzled out / looked up the commands in the script you posted. Based on that I extracted the rom, then placed the batch file within it, so that the cd (current directory) command runs correctly.
Unfortunately this mucks up the signing on the rom. Do you re-sign your CM7 roms every time you do this or is there an easier way?
Edit: My PC is Win 7, 64bit, soon to be Win 8 Consumer Preview.
Edit: The roms do not need resigning.
I don't re-sign the ROM, simply flash again over Clockworkmod Recovery.. and work.
But, you can:
1) sign using Auto-Sign....
2) Click [Thanks]...

Big thank you. That's solved that one nicely for me!
You're welcome.
Updated zip in my first Post.

Hey again. I was hoping to build on the script you kindly provided. At the moment I am using various alpha roms where the exact apk's present changes fairly often. It would be great if I could see the outcome of each action. This way I would know if the apk has had it's name changed or been removed. How would I enable this?
