Question for the Seniors about ROM building. - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

I'm new to posting on here although I've been a member for some time now. I watch, read, listen & learn as much as I can from ya'll. HUGE FAN of ya'll's work. I think I'd like to try building my own ROM just to see if I can, so here's what I have......HTC ROM TOOL from Dark Simpson, Radio v1.65.14.06 from Dutty, & lots of cabs. The ROM tool asks for .nb or .nb0 files. i.e.-OS, Radio, Splash, & SPL. I'm assuming those (.nb, .nb0) are partial ROM files. Where do ya'll get these partial files from? And if there is a ROM extractor out there, would it be ok to extract a couple of ya'll's ROMs for "parts" purposes? All the information ya'll could provide would greatly be appreciated. Thanks to all in advance.

the tool you talking about just rebuilds roms it doesnt dump them for cooking. read the Wiki about kaiser rom cooking you will find all the tools like kaiserkitchen there and everything else you need. honestly you have no need for part1.raw and so on you just need the RUU_signed.nbh of what ever rom you want to cook

And if you do extract a base from a Cooked ROM. Give the chefs the common courtesy of telling them you are using it and/or get permission.

Is there a WM6 Rom Kitchen for the Wizard?

I have seen a lot of releases of ROM Kitchen, but not for the wizard.
So, here's my question: is there a WM6 Kitchen of the wizard publicly released out there? I'm not talking about Molski's Dev Pack (which is a great collection of tools, but misses the package management stuff).
I'm talking about something like the ROM Kitchen released by bepe for the Hermes http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/298636/...
Over the past months, I have been building my very own WWE kitchen for the Wizard and fixing registry settings at the package level (rather than patching after it).
If there is interest, I could release it...
Let me know.
--eluth.
i would be intrested in your rom kitchen...

YES. Unleash the kitchen. Maybe we'll all learn to cook someday!
@all
It's very simple to cook your own kitchen.
I don't know wht are you waiting for? Try to cook it by yourself and take tytn's kitchen as example.
gd luck.

For the uninitiated, can you explain a bit more. Take my example, I am a noobie and have flashed plenty of times. But anything more and my mind registers a blank. But I would like to tread this "cooking rom" path as the next step.
Thanks for the information. "A step-by-step guide to forming your own kitchen and cooking roms for consuption" would be just great.
ya let it come, for now i use molski kitchen for rom cooking.
Just follow bepe's kitchen structure and analyze the package(s)

That's what I did originally.
Then I discovered the Scoter Kitchen, which is based on bepe's tools too.
Nice thing about the scoter kitchen are the dmp2pkg and pkg2dmp tools which I have not found in another kitchen so far (at least in the ones I looked at).
That kitchen it also great, because it comes with documentation in html included and plenny other tools to work on the XIP segments...
They are nice as you can re-build the packages from the DSM files (like DSMTool previously) and recreate your dump directory with pkg2dmp (like BuildOS).
At this point, I don't know what is better: pkg2dmp or BuildOS. I have yet to port the packages I extracted from Orwell and modified,
to the bepe Kitchen to compare (not too difficult, just that I was focusing on something else).
Regards,

Any WM5 Kitchen will work for WM6. I really dont see the build diffrence between the 2 as far as building. I use the files attached and they work fine for me. No walk through as I havent had time to write it down.
Basically it works like this though:
Step 1. Run dump.bat
Step 2. Modify the files in the working directory.
Step 3. Add files to dump folder (not what you find in working directory, thats automatic in Step 4.
Step 4. Run make.bat.
Pretty simple i think. All these are pulled together from other posts so if you have questions just read. LOL. You can also just PM me but remember I am kinda busy and might not reply very quickly.
Unable to upload to site so have to use rapidshare for this one. sorry guys.

i'd be interested in seeing it. I'm always up to learn new ways to accomplish something

I think the rom cookers should share their knowledge

if the rom cookers can teach us how to cook roms maybe we could help and port nice roms like new wm6 rom 5.2.1413.
pls respond: Faria, Mun, Anchillus, not too smart(very smart) etc.

Well, what would you like to know?
There are some brilliant walkthroughs and kitchen downloads in the forum, just gotta do research. But im willing to help out no matter what you need

I think someone is showing they haven't read very much of these forums...
Faria and Molski have numerous posts where they have shared lots of information. Molski even released a kitchen tool for beginners. Faria has provided docs on how to do a lot of this stuff. All of the info is in here, but if you want to learn it, then you need to do some digging.
There is a LOT more to XDA-Developers than the Wizard Mobile 6 forum. Take time to look at the other Wizard forums (especially Wizard Upgrading) as thats where some real meat is located. Then there is lots of information in some of the general forums and even in the forums of other devices (I can't keep up with all of it, so just stick to the Wizard ones mainly, but I do browse the Hermes periodically).
i extracted dutty's hermes rom OS 6.0 i was wondering what files do i remove and what do i put in and is there an easier way to edit the initflashfiles.dat

Settle down, I think you shoul try cooking a WM5 Wizard rom first. Your trying to run before you learn to walk.

need wm 6.1 base rom!

ive decided to try something new and try out hypercore kitchen but i needa base rom that isnt the stock T-Mobile ROM
can anyone give me a link to the newest version of 6.1?
thanks.
no one?
or is it just really late?
Your best bet is to use JustClean. If you really feel the need to use Hypercore, grab the SYS, OEM, and ROM folders from JustClean. Strip out the OEM packs you don't need and add the packs you want.
If you are feeling ambitious, try merging Hypercore with JustClean. Update the internals of Hypercore first though.
Use Hypercore for extraction and JustClean for builds.

There is no real wm6.1 for the herald. If your wanting to use hypercore, then port one over.
and how do i port one over?

You can search the forum on how to port or you can use bepe kitchen which already has a striped down version of wm6.1.
If you use bepe kitchen, you must have a good working oem folder of your own.
Cooking takes time and most of the time is reading, testing, debuging, and simply learning.
Most of the cooks will tell you that it takes a lot of time.
Thats why I spend at least a month on one rom before even beta testing it.
Anybody can use a kitchen to produce a rom, but will it be your rom?
Ivannmj is one of my best friends on this forum and has creaeted a very good kitchen, but I think his kitchen was intended for people to created their own roms for personal use.
You can use his kitchen to create roms for others, but you will miss out on learning all of the steps in creating your own rom.
Also, I'm not trying to made anybody feel bad or tell people not to use ivannmj kitchen, I'm just trying to tell people that want to become cooks to spend time learning the entire process.
Just my two cents,

Exactly! ^_^ That's why it was originally called EasyBakeOven. You're not really cooking. It's more like a customized version of my ROM.

extracting a rom

Hi all. i have the uk t-mobile wm6.0 reconstructed rom and it works great,i am looking to get the files extracted for cooking but i cant seem to do it anyway.
the reason i want to cook wm6.0 and not 6.1 is because i cannot get emails to send with whichever 6.1 rom i use even after applying all fixes.
rhe rom files are in nbh files,ive managed to extract them down to 0s.nb and everything i find on google references how to do this and not make it to a base rom.
thanks

No offense meant and in no way or intention of insulting your intelligence but, have you scan the thread that honcorrd gave 2 posts up? You will find there a working WM6.5 kitchen from trueg together with lots of precious advice on how to start cooking.
If I as a newbie and a wannabe cook may be allowed to give you an advice:
Learn first how to recover from a bricked device. Just in case you mess up cooking
Read, read, read specifically on kitchen threads & cooking. Learn the language of chefs: XIP, SYS, EXT, PRB, OEMXIPKernel, etc.
Check out the Development & Hacking thread and search for kitchen topics specifically for QVGA devices. There are lots of them available
Start cooking a WM6.1 ROM, play with it. You'll learn a lot & faster by trying out things yourself.
It will also be helpful to checkout [PICTORIAL] COOKING YOUR 6.1 ROMS USING ELF(in) HYBRID KITCHEN (kokotas) [ONLINE] by ayyu3m.
I see that you have a Gene as well, If I'm not mistaken I think BesFen has a good thread there about cooking.
Good luck!

yes as u said i had treidd ti make rom using by ayyu3m.but there were a dsm file error.
and about gene i had already uploaded 3 rom for new gene including 6.5.
and i had never found visual kitchen so much easy userface...
I don't know if other chefs have succeeded in using Ervius Visual Kitchen (EVK) to build Elf(in) ROMs. The only visual kitchen we have is as you mentioned - kokotas' Hybrid kitchen.
It works fine even on WM6.5.x but, the process to build ROM using this kitchen is tedious and the built ROM is buggy compared to the non visual B2 & trueg (both kokotas based) kitchens. Why not use those instead at the moment? Both works perfectly alright and quite easy to use.

Congratulations! That's great to know miky. I'm still trying to make EVK (v 1.8.x) built ROM bootable but has no luck yet. I wish you can share your secret!
I have requested help from other notable xda chefs to include Elf(in) in their VK's and I had some positive response. We will surely have a new EVK based kitchen soon!

For a newbie like me best thing to do is:
Follow ayyu3ms pictorial kitchen
Dump an original Elf(in) ROM, not a cooked one. Links are on the original ROM thread
Cook the dumped ROM. It should work
Start replacing the files with the new - target ROM.
Read trueg's post on the kitchen linked by me and honcorrd . I learned a lot from those
Ace your MBBS, no point in learning building ROMs if you don't pass it!
