Kaiser ROM Kitchen Tutorial
Here are some user testimonials:
tkalli said:
I want to thank you for the tutorial and the other members of xda-developers that contributed to the Kitchen.
Following the Tutorial, I cooked several ROM's today. It was a great learning experience. I flash all the ROM's and they worked.
Know I have to put together everything I want in them and cook some more. I have both a Tilt and a Kaiser. Looking forward to more learning.

_Alex_ and jcespi2005,
Thank you both SO VERY MUCH for all of your time and contributions.
I've been hesitant thus far to cook my own ROM but with the noob friendly screenshots added to the wiki, I finally had the courage to cook up my own ROM, flash it and what do you know...it WORKED!
Being a professional chef, I am now inspired to work towards virtual chefdom in the ROM realm.
Thanks again!

So just to check I under stand this..
I went thorugh the the install instructions OK but the bit that confused me was...
Extract the OEM Package folder included within the ROM thread to \kaiserkitchen\packages
I assume you have to manually create a sub-folder called packages under
\kaiserkitchen\ ??
But then what is the use of the OEM_HTCxxx folder?? What if anything goes in there??
So then, if I unzip all the OEM cab files into the \kaiserkitch\packages folder (OR any other OEM packages I can find , especially HTC packages) then when Ervius runs - I should see all the packages I copied to the \kaiserkitch\packages folder???
Many Thanks for your tutorials - it's really nice to see people sharing their knowledge!!
Cheers

Not really good at reconstructing ROMs, but the errors you're receiving about duplicate DSMs, you'll need to find the duplicate folder and/or file and delete it.
You might be able to get more help in the reconstructing ROMs thread stickied at the top of the forums.
Hope this helps.

It seems like you haven't downloaded the OEM packages yet. It should be alot clearer with the files in front of you. Download them first and see if that helps...

Hi Alex,
My mistake I though I had got these files..
Just one more question. I have deconstructed Dutty's latest ROM. There are a few 'OEM' packages in the SYS folder that I would like to add to your base ROM one being a folder called HTC Touchflo Cube.
I have set up another kitchen folder with your Alex base ROM, now where would I put the additional Dutty extracted folders eg HTC Touchflo Cube folder?
Do I simply add the additional Dutty extracted OEM packages to the SYS (Alex) folder? or do I add it under (Alex) packages??
Many Thanks for your patience

Extracting OEM packages from other people's cooked ROMs isn't that easy which is why it's not covered in this tutorial. I also don't like doing it because it's somewhat stealing...
You may have better luck following my steps in my OEM Package Tutorial, and convert the htc touch cube cabs to OEM packages.
Here are some links for HTC touch cube cabs:

Hi Alex - I didn't think of that, I didn't realise that the ROM author had made their own OEM packages..
Anyway, in that case, I will have a go at generating a OEM package for coreplayer, I assume that I will add this package in the kaiserkitchen\packages folder? (Not SYS etc..)
Cheers

First: Sorry for my bad english
This is the first time for me to cooking roms.
i use the HTC German recunstructed ROM as Base-Rom...
after klicking the GO Button, i have many line´s of:
package "XXXXXXX" does not contain .rgu file "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx.rgu"
not all, but a few... is this normal??
EDIT On:
All is great... my first GER cooked ROM run I´m so happy
and now i musst learn how i create/delete (GERman) OEM Pakages, to create a good German ROM...
@ ALex
very big thx!!!

Yup, it all goes in packages.
FWIW, The Core Player Media Player (TCPMP) exists as a OEM package for the freeware version and can be found as 'Pocket Media Player' within the OEM packages included within the Kaiser ROM Kitchen by jcespi2005.

Hi,
at the begin, i want to give all credits to _Alex_ for his kitchen and i want to tell you all that "This kitchen is _Alex_ kitchen with integrating All packages to one by bepe"
if you are beginner, just visit this
if you tried kaiser kitchen before, just read the edit directly and download.
What i did:
- Fully supports all_packages_to_one.exe by bepe (which give the ability to combine all dsm files into one dsm file, so Windows directory contains just one dsm file).
- All packages arranged to be easily updaeted.
- Useful registries included.
- SYS and ROM based on 19202 by nothrills.
i hope you will find something in this small thing .
you can download it from: http://rapidshare.com/files/108164052/TNT.19202_Full_Kitchen.rar
The kitchen is missing Rom Folder, Download it from the link: http://rapidshare.com/files/114997569/19202_Kaiser_Rom_folder_for_TNT.kitchen.rar
Credits:
_Alex_ for his kitchen.
Bepe for his all_packages_to_one tool (and ofcourse for every thing he did in the forums).
Nothirills for the base rom.
Thanks for sharing !
Does it include XIP porting too ?

Kaiser still needs manually xip porting, as bepe reported that his tools can't work in kaiser and polaris.
while kaiser always has the latest builds which come already ported, all you need is to extract XIP, ROM and SYS folders and then use the same OEM you want (ofcourse you need relocate modules tool which is in development forum)
in general, you need to have a look into OEM folders in this kitchen to rearrange any new release as the arrangment in this kitchen, so it is easier.
good luck.

Hello all
Its Right.
Does the OEM Packages provided contain the Packages you use to cook your ROMs?
I love the work you and your team do.
God bless you all.

Hi,
I'm starting cooking and learning.
I have read and search but this step is really not clear in my head
So excuse me in advance for this question.
So I would like to add some modules (made with resersmode) in an Original OEM Kaiser Rom (eg the NoThrills WM 6.1 WWE) that has been extracted into OEM and SYS folder and XIP using the Kitchen and then rebuild and flash.
- does I need to port something or modify the XIP as this is an original Kaiser XIP ?
- does I need to only copy my new modules to the SYS folder and reallocate all modules using G'Reloc ?
- does is it needed to make something particular with the original XIP (reallocating, ...) when adding modules ?
Thanks in advance.

for kaiser, you have to learn how to port XIP manually.
but if there is a ready kitchen (as linked here) you don't need to do anything, just add and remove the packages in OEM folder.
in case of adding other modules in OEMDrivers, you need to use GReloc which is in development forum and read the comments mentioned there.
I hope that i gave you some of useful informations.
good luck

please give us the ROM folder. Thanks
The ROM folder is uploaded
The 1st try with this kitchen worked perfectly. I cooked a rom that supports Chinese R/W, adding a lot more OEM packages. The ROM is fast and almost flawless, thanks.
Got the rom folder and did g'relocate and cooked the rom and flashed it, got to the second splash screen and the touch screen froze on "tap to set up your device". However, activesync connected to the phone and i was able to flash a known rom to recover. Any idea what i did wrong? I made no changes to OEM or anything else. Could it have something to do with the touch.dll or such, or maybe i got the slot addresses wrong?

Hi guys,
Well, I know it's been a while since I asked how to port the SYS and XIP. I can do those both great now, but I was wondering how you can change the OS build?

What do you mean build number here?
the CE OS 5.2.20273 or the Build 20273 ??
For the CE OS you need to port and update XIP part to make it changed,.
Well, you cant only change the .dsm, it wont change anything,.
You could always make a fake build, just like CE OS 5.2.66666 BUILD 66666 ,.
all you need just learning to use IDA and HEX Calculator !
Hope it help,.
CE OS version is stored in XIP/coredll.dll and OS build is stored in SYS/Base_Lang_xxxx/shellres.xxxx.mui. not in dsm. DSM files are merely package information files and OS can run without them.
hi guys. thanks for the input. im not going to hex edit anything, but thanks for that info anyway lol
the thing is, i AM porting the XIP AND SYS and the ce os build is not changing. how does everyone port the xip?

You have to do full port XIP,.
Export ALL XIP from the new build, and re insert it to your NEW XIP,.

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had a tutorial to do a full XIP Port for the kaiser. I found a few, but none of them changed my CE OS Build #, which supposedly a full port would do. Can someone point me in the right direction? I've read Garmin's, but I need to know all the XIP addresses for the kaiser...

build No. is in 723fb954-d931-4348-b672-82a188e587b5.dsm, for full xip port u need replace all files and modules in MSXIPKernel and MSXIPKernelLTK.
txt files needn't
Here's the method...
Here's the method I'm using. It's works perfectly but sometimes, you can't doing a FULL xip port because some modules are very hard to port.

how to create registry and by which program?
how to cook it in rom?
i have read mr. makk tut.. but its just highlight..
i want step by step proced.. or something near to it..plz help..
no one?.......
Software you place in the kitchen will have a app.reg to which can just be edited, if it's system changes you want to make or if you just don't want to dig in the kitchen you can export reg & make .cab with all reg edits and add to customization "OperatorPkg\ExtendedPKG"
i get some idea but still need some more info..
Your first question answered. Or you use SK-Tools it exports registry and can create a cab!
To get it into rom you need a kitchen.
Simple isn't it?
