ROM is protected just so you don't wipe out all the functionality of a device without due care and attention. It is very dangerous to change ROM files if you don't know what you are doing and act recklessly. Do some studying on the topic of ROM cooking and search for device-specific ROMs and tools. Use the knowledge base and google for these.
Best regards and good luck!

ŃŐŐß questions for newbie rom cooking

Hi guys. I have flashed many great roms from xda to my Kaiser but I am keen to make my own...
I have done allot of reading through the rom cooking wikis and watched the screen casts for the Kaiser Kitchen program. But I have a few questions I hope someone can help me with.
The first relates to the latest roms that members of this forum are using to construct their latest builds. No one seems to be using the roms in Alex's Megaupload folder so should I disregard those roms, oem packages and seek the latest roms that are being used on xda If so are these roms available for download prior to customization on this forum? I have used the search function but cant find them.
Ive noticed that people are porting roms from other HTC devices for use with the Kaiser? Is this something I will need to do to make a latest os build?
Also is there one location for all the latest apps like opera 9 camera drivers ect for me to cook into a rom?
I have many more questions but ill save them for next time. I am sure questions like this get asked all the time so ill be greatly appreciative of anyone that can help.. Cheers..

you can use the newer builds that are available here at xda. plus you can download official builds from htc and than use the official build as your base and modify, tweak and improve it.

not necessarily the latest os build. Reasons roms are ported from other devices is to take advantage of the features available on those roms that don't exist on our official or standard rom. check out this tutorial on porting sys and xip:

depends on what you are looking for. Here are some of the opal cab/packages compiled by mbarvian:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=430354
I don't think they are all in one location but most of them are all available here at xda for you to cook in. You have to do a little bit of hunting and scavaging Just don't forget to credit whoever created the cab/package you use
Good luck.

Thanks for your help thesire

So by this you mean download a latest build I can find, flash it and then dump it from my phone and customise it in the kitchen? Or is there some tool that will extract the os from the rom without having to flash?
Thanks again

You need to download a cooking kit, not just a kitchen, unless you build your own. They usually include OEM Folde, SYS Folder, etc...
For a noobie migh I sugest PPCKitchen.org where you'll find the PPCGeeks KaiserKitchen.
There are also a few screen shot videos by DoctaJay. They are available in the wiki & in the start here thread.

Which ROM did you dump? Depending on the way it was cooked, you might not be able to get OEM and SYS files in tact. Find a ROM that was cooked with all dsm and rgu files, then you will be able to dump and create packages.

Kaiserchef is also a very good kitchen for beginner chefs. It runs each .bat in order automatically. All you have to do is download the kitchen, put the stock rom you want to dump in the base rom folder and run the runme.bat. Select use the rom in base rom folder as base and it will extract it. Packages are all over the forum. Just rember that camera and dialer packages are sometimes device specific so be sure to read up. I have some oems in my 4shared and starbase64 has almost any oem you could ever want in his 4 shared. just do a search for starbase64 and click on his 4share link in his sig.

Thanks for the suggestions so far guys. Downloaded Kaiserchef.. Looks like a cleaner or newer version of Kaiserkitchen?
Ok, downloaded Version5.9RRE20748manilla.rar rom from aruppenthal's 4shared folder as it seems like this is the latest build I can find and I want to build a rom based on the latest build.
Followed the steps in Kaiserchef and it extracts the SYS, ROM folders but the OEM folder remains empty I downloaded a rom package from Alex's megaupload folder, but if I use that ROM folder from Alex's rom it will be an older OS I'm building correct? Where would I find the latest?
And can someone kindly explain what the ROM, SYS and OEM actually folders do.
Thanks guys

If you want to cook it get the rom from my 4 shared that has this name
RUU_Kaiser_CINGULAR_WWE_3.57.502.2.rar
Mine (Version5.9RRE20748manilla.rar rom )has no oem folder because after v5 i started combining dsms which makes it lose the oem.

[Q] How to create a new Windows Mobile ROM?

Hi all!
I am a new man to develop ROM. Now I had been assigned a job to create a Windows Mobile ROM. But I know nothing about it. I have many questions:
1. What work cycle I should follow for this job?
2. I had ever compiled Windows CE 6.0. And I had NK.bin after compilation. Can I use this as a kernel in Windows Mobile?
3. What tools I should use to build ROM?
4. Suppose I had already create a ROM, hwo to depoly it into Mobile Phone?
I hope some expert with experience about this can help me, and told me how to do. Thank you very much!

First, we need to know which device the ROM is for. Each Windows Mobile ROM is device specific.
Then you need to decide which version of WM you want to include.
Also, there are several tools (called "kitchens" for cooking the ROM) available on these forums. OSKitchen and Ervius Visual Kitchen are the two that most people use.
And you need to have some kind of understanding of the ROM structure of a Windows Mobile ROM and which files are responsible for which part of the OS.

Thanks for your reply!
I had downloaded these two applications. Now I can use erviusKitchen to dump a ROM downloaded from HTC offical web-site. But I don't know how to change the DEVICE, Language and so on. All those are read only.
I hope the_scotsman can help me more.
Thx again!

Why no answer?

Perhaps because you are not in the right section?

[SOLVED] Trying to port 4.4 Stock ROM to J Butterfly, ext_sd still not working

Using kernel based on Zarboz's source and sbryan12144's portROM.
My port booted though external sdcard and sensors are not working. How can I make this work?
To make sensors work, I put sensors.dlx.so in /system/lib/hw/, but it still didn't work.
Did I use wrong version? Or problems in kernel or ramdisk? I took this file from tako's ROM convert tool. This file has Android 4.4 version, and I'm not sure where it came from.
I also edited fstab.dlxj, init.target.rc in ramdisk, then storage_list.xml in /system/framework/framework-res.apk, vold.fstab in /system/etc/.
I'd like to release this ROM as a beta version. I think ROM should be approved to release by original developer before releasing it.
When I can release complete port ROM? Or other person may release complete port ROM first? I don't know...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2626050

Sensor problem finally solved. sensor.dlx.so from port ROM also can be used in dlxj.
I have tried that yesterday, but it didn't look like working.
Maybe because I have enabled IOEXTENDER in kernel build config?

How to extract apks and files from a Android ROM

Hello Everyone, I am not very good at android software development, and I was wondering if anyone knows how to extract files and apks from an android ROM.
The ROM in question is the Nvidia Shield Portable (P2450) stock OS. I have uploaded it in case anybody wanted it.
I am hoping to get the software and files from it so I can customize the Android 10 GSI ROM, and make it look like the original OS (same app launcher, apps, sounds, and wallpapers)
