you just have to run on pc with the usb cable plugged in, and then a soft reset, and everything will be ok...
What boot screen are you looking for? Or do you want to creat your own one?

well i had read the forum instructions and for change boot and welcom screen.
but something is wrong with the typho5. its suppose to extract nb 9200000 files but the application starts without extracting nobthing.
i would like to change the welcome screen from the PDAMobiz to some thing personal. i follow instruction but they dont fit the results i get.
any idea?
thanks to all
specially to the guys in PDAMobiz, who made the best of the best Rom
I want too to make a personal bootscreen...if someone can help us with a little tutorial, we are waiting..thx
Try this
The pdf manual in this thread has a section on updating boot screen and all the tools required to do it are included too.
I do not suggest everybody trys to get into the ROM cooking that is also described, but the splash screen section is fairly straitforward
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297027
first, with this tool you can create your own ROM (customized)...and also splash screens...see the manual pdf
welcomehead.96.png
well to make it easy to understand where we stand this is the only file we must change. but there is a problem. the original file is read only and can not be replaced nor rename or moved. not with total comander , not even unlock extended rom. after a small research i found that the file is integrated with in the original ROM not the extended.
so i am looking for a tool to delete/install files into the ROM when present on the device.
it sims that that cannot be done. we must dump the present rom, sort of cook it on our PC than re- install it with changes done.
at the same time since most of us are very happy with the ROM as is , but want to personal it littel bit, its worth a dedicated tool.
i will look into it. if i find a way i will post it here.
thanks for the great job of the PDAMobize last version .
good tool and very stable
You do not need to look into it!!!!
Read the previous two posts and look at the pdf manual in the download - it describes the tools you need to change you images (without cooking a complete rom)
And it doesnt need a hard reset either!

I'm using alex's kitchen and am trying to create a cooked wm6.1 rom from the CE OS 5.2.19170 (BUILD 19170.1.0.0).
I've extracted the rom loads of times and can create a flashable RUU_signed.nbh with additional apps from packages (and some packages i made myself) but if i try to add the new polaris camera or anything that the rom may have a previous version of it errors out and can't create the default hives.
It says for a lot of the added packages they do not contain rgu's.
Anyone fancy trying to mentor me a bit?
read the wiki on how to make oem packages bro im in the midst of making my own custom rom right now based off of dcs1.1
Cheers for the reply.
I've done that and made some working packages but it seems thats not the problem. i think i need to remove all the older stuff from oemapps first but i don't know how to do that and can't find any pointers.
I know i could start deleting stuff but thats probably not wise.
ive been lerning myself the past 3 days non stop just testing n testing new stuff seeing what goes well, trying to take pkgs from roms and merge to other etc takes some time but ull get it if u keep at it, i really recommend the packages creator 5.4 util for making ur pkgs
i just wish i cood find the pkgs for dutties beautiful red phone dialer and call history etc. i tried removing it but its a bit too advanced for me atm
I've been using the package creator in the kitchen (ervius' one).
I'm on nightshifts at work and i think the sleep deprivation is making me miss the obvious.
I'll stick at it for a bit though and then have a proper go when i get a day off.
I'll have a bash with the rom your using as its got the camera in already but i'd still like to know how to do it myself.
Now where'd i put that cup of coffee?
oh and i find with the pkg tool i have to delete the rgu files to avoid the hv registry errors in buildos hope that helps
It says they are missing for most of them anyway.
Please watch this.
to get my pkgs to work i found that i had to uncheck prefix files and leave all others checked, then after creating the pkgs i delete the rgu files

Did you try searching for ROM dump and reconstructing a dumped ROM?? It's in the WIKI too...
Radio - you'll find download links for all of them either in the WIKI or on the forum...
thanks for the reply.. so i did finish dumping the rom into the baserom folder and put the nbh file in the same folder when i run kaiser kitchen everything looks like its working but when the pkgtool program tries to run i get an application error do u guys know what i might be doing wrong?

After many many tweaking and cooking ROMs for WinMo I want to do same with Android. The reason I cooked for WinMo was speed, but since it is not an issue with mine Desire(but it can be better I want to customize ROM a little bit, so remove some stuff and later maybe add few apps. If this want be a problem I will try to tweak too.
However in WinMo I have always have served kitchen, I just tweaked removed and add few things and job done but here there are no kitchens..yet(I hope somebody will sooner or later post it
So is there anybody who can help to set up kitchen so that I can cook few roms for me and this community?
So if I understanded correctly I need following to start cooking
android sdk
java jdk
signing tool
stock ROM
I have downloaded them all, extracted SDK in D:\HTC Desire\Android SDK, installed Java JDK in C:\Program Files (x86)\Java and I don't know what to do next?
Extract ROM, where(?), extract system.img which is in rom.zip if yes how and where?
Thanks for your help
Benko, you can extract the ROM anywhere you want. But, you don't want images. You should look at Pauls rootedupdate.zip as a starting point. Unzip that.

Ok extracted that rootedupdate.zip and found a lot of apks and obexes so after I delete those files that I dont want how to put that all back together to file that is flashable?
You'll have to resign the zip after removing stuff, otherwise it will give verification errors when trying to flash.
You need to remove the current certificates from the file, there are three files in the META-INF folder - delete those, but keep the update script (the COM folder inside), it's needed for flashing.
I use this little thingy for signatures: http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Generating_Keys
Hope this helps!
PS-beware of any dependencies between the various apk's and any framework modding that might be needed, otherwise you'll get more fc's than you can carry; I know I did
PS2- if you want a served kitchen, you'll find one over at Modaco, for a CyanogenMod port (a link is posted in a thread here) - see if that suits you're needs.
PS3- check out the Chef Central sticky here, too - it should be easier to get quicker/more accurate info from the seasoned cooks there

Rezip the folders: meta, system & boot.img.
Then resign them. You can then transfer it to sd and try to flash. If it doesn't boot, then you have to troubleshoot.
May I know that how to change layout of the home screen?
e.g. HTC sense has news/mail widget where first installed and booted.
Where can I change these settings?
Also , I want to know if I made my own rom, and updated to my desire.
If it doesn't boot or anything, can I updated the rootedupdate.zip from Paul to get the desire back working?
Thanks

Ok zipped those folders(META-INF, system, boot.img) in rootedupdate.zip, used autosign.bat to manually sign that .zip and now it should be flashable?
@Kevin-yes if it is not bootable you can flash Pauls rom again

Hopefully. After a few hundred times you'll get the hang of it. ;P
If it boot loops, it won't boot. Try again. Always remember what you're adding and subtracting. Maybe start out with only a couple things.

Any help would be most appreciated.

So for now I even don't need Android SDK?
I downloaded the rom kitchen from Chef Central...Does the rom need to be sign after I built them out in Linux?
Also there are some folders I not understand yet....
Inside system folder - customize, etc, framework, usr and xbin I dont understand yet.
Cause looking at eVil D:'s rom and paul's rom is very different in those. And even paul's rom doesnt have customize folder.
Would like to understand all and see if I can make a rom out.
Thanks
Anybody tried my ROM ?

the kitchen signs the rom automatically. run the menu from terminal ( using linux) and u will see all the what the kitchen is doing.
do not try to compare custom roms ... they are different. some have extrafiles & folders depending on their customisations.
best thing is to compare with an original rom for the desire. and u see what has been added to get X and Y. involves a lot of trials and errors.

after checking some useless apps and removing them, this happened to me .
I am wonder what did i choose by mistake, and what was that?
check attachments for screen shots please.
I am not sure about Fusion.apk
If yes that's the problem, may some one provide a copy for me.
Thanks.
Actually they are there, and i can use them, but not visible.
Desire S
ICS 4.0.4
Sense 3.6
fusion.apk is part of htc sense framework, just open rom zip and copy that file to /system/app and reboot

LooL Thank BTW.
Haven't played with RUU for a very long time. but if I remember correctly, when you run exe it extracts rom zip file to a temp folder somewhere on your c drive, keep it open and do a search you should be able to find the zip.
A good example of why it's a good idea to make a nandroid backup before playing with the system...

Yep, OP just needs to search and read. This is exactly the method we used to get the .zip originally when the ICS RUU was released by HTC.

IDC i always relock - install RUU - unlock - root.
THATS ALWAYS BETTER TO HAVE A CLEAR INSTALLATION OF SOME THING RATHER THAN PACK INSTALLATION.

That's really nice if it does some thing like that. i did search in %temp% and %user%/app/data
but no trace .
and i am not sure that you are able to use UniExtractor to extract this new type of protected EXE file.
by using CMD, n does command you would get a pack from that EXE file, included a CAB file which is included all data in,
Is there to open a protected CAB?
usualy windows Cabinet files may extract via Winrar, Cabex, Cabextractor, etc ...

No, there is no problem whether you are rooted or not as you said you need the Fusion.apk - which you just need to pull from the extracted .zip file after the first stage of running the RUU on your PC.
I don't have a problem with you - other than the fact that you seem to want to argue with anyone who gives you advice. You asked for a .apk file - you were suggested to extract it yourself from the RUU and then you decide to argue and find reasons why you can't do it. If you want help then read the answers from knowledgeable people and try what they suggest - otherwise what is the point in asking?
As for my 'Thanks' - who cares? I know less than many of the people on here, and you don't get 'Thanks' in Off-Topic, and I am almost never in OT, and it's none of your damn business why people have thanked me in the past.
You seem to have a real attitude of assuming you have a right to be supported. XDA is not, and never has been, a helpdesk for noobs - you need to get that into your head and deal with it.
Edit on this as I wanted to be sure of what I was saying. If you run the RUU then it will extract various info, including ROM.zip, into a temp folder, but this .zip is only useful as an image to flash from recovery, not to extract individual files from. On that basis, look for one of the ROMs that were based on the official RUU - there was a de-odexed, pre-rooted one released fairly shortly after the RUU - and pull fusion.apk from there.
And don't take your rookie mistake and frustration at yourself out on other members of XDA.
