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.

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..)

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.
Where is the ROM?

Does the OEM Packages provided contain the Packages you use to cook your ROMs?
I love the work you and your team do.

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 there
For the moment I haven't found a french 6.1 rom that suits my needs.
So I was wondering about starting cooking. But in fact there are WWE very good roms and I was wondering if it is possible to translate a ROM that way
1. extract the OEM_Lang_*** folder from the official HTC french ROM
2. extract a WWE ROM (of course with the authorization of the cooker !)
3. replace the OEM_Lang folder
4. re-cook the ROM & flash
Thank you for your help
Greg
PS : I found the thread dealing with translating with emulator files but for now there are no localized emulator files for wm 6.1

maybe with kaiser kitchen or install then dump a french rom...
that is the question
i'm no expert being that i only got in the kitchen a month ago, but from what i can see your steps make sense. i'm not one hundred percent sure that it will work but i would say try it, dump the WWE rom, so long as you are not releasing it as a new rom the chef will have no problem, and then do as you said. replace OEM_lang_*** with the folder from your french ROM. whether it works or not post the results, i kinda want to see what happens. you might also be able to ask the chef of the WWE rom that you want to use if he knows how to do it.
you also need to replace the *.mui in the sys folder.

Your problems are:
1. you must looking for a chef that shares with you own cook (very very difficult)
2. you must looking for packages (very difficult)
3. you have to change also *.mui in \Sys dir (as have told you xtreme_g)
4. you have to modify also RGU in some \OEM dir
Then you can rebuild and cook. You can use the ervius+bepe's package tool.
Good luck
DIY: The ROM Kitchen for Pharos
base on Pharos Official ROM 1.11.707.1
(Click to enlarge)
I have released a ROM Kitchen for Pharos at PDA Mobiz month ago.
Since there is somebody asking for a kitchen, I think it may be useful to post it here too.
This kitchen was created from the Pharos Official ROM 1.11.707.1 which I have already posted here.
(Click to enlarge)
DIY was created to be a clean and very flexible kitchen; it has not been optimized for speed.
By the way, I haven't said that it is not fast.
What do you need?
An Official ROM; you need to extract OS.nb to be used with DIY.
I haven't included it in DIY because I want to reduce size of file needed to be downloaded.
You also need an Official ROM if you had trouble flashing your device, just in case.
To download: Visit Pharos Official ROM 1.11.707.1 Thread.
pof's NBHExtract; you need it for extracting above Official ROM.
To download: Visit NBHextract: Extract contents from NBH files Thread.
DIY; Download: DIY-1.11-1.0.rar from RapidShare (55MB).
Setup the DIY
The DIY can be extracted and placed any where on your computer, no matter it is XP or Vista.
You just need .Net 2 ...
After that, use NBHExtract to extract the RUU_Signed.nbh from the Official ROM.
You will get a file call 04_OS.nb along with few others.
Rename the 04_OS.nb to OS.nb and place it under ~\DIY\Build\ROM folder.
(Click to enlarge)
How to build ROM?
Well, there are three batch files;
1.BuildOS.bat, you can choose OEM(s) you would like to include in your build.
2.CreateOS.bat.
3.htcROMTool.bat.
And it is as easy as 1-2-3.
Credit
Special thanks to bepe, pof, esteve and many other developers who started the game we are playing.
Special thanks to Ru Chonburi (ruchonburi) who create the SPL for unlocking our Pharos.
Special thanks to vivi, hong1201 and many other friends at PDAMobiz.
I hope this DIY inspire you as Noonski's did to me.
Reserved
Allow me to reserve this for future use ...
another Reserved
just in case ...
great work, suracha!
thank you a lot!
thanks!
and I have a question, how can I translate the ROM in another language (chinese)?
I would like to get a english rom and translate it in chinese.
China ROM
Well, I have never worked with any ROM other than WWE.
If I were you, I would extract ROM again from Official Chinese ROM. I think I saw some of them in this Pharos forum.
yeah, but the CE OS and the build versions of chinese official rom is so old, I don't like it
Seems that Chinese rom is different form wwe...
but i just wanna ask how can i make a "start pic" rom only
Why there is not so much guys use pharos
How can I add other Tools to be cooked straight into the ROMs, like Advanced Configuration 3.1?
Also, how can it be translated to German?
must be very difficult
but i also think i saw same german roms in this forum

Ok, I can give you my kitchen with various sys in WM 6.5, but i need to upload and send you a link by mp, maybe on monday ok? Do you need the OEM instead? I work in 0C0A and just have a basic OEM in 0409
It's very nice to you !
I work in 040C ( french) but it's not a problem
Thanks a lot !!!
hello humrod,
Thanks a lot for your kitchen.
Unfortunately i have an runtime error, it appear there is an error in a folder
Have you try to run the .bat with the 0409 file ?
Thanks a lot
Yes, in fact i cooked a 0409 rom and flash it in my touch, and flash well.
ok
So i don't understand why i have this error, according to the serahc engin on xda, this error is here because of an error in SYS or oem, or PKG, or ROm
Let's resume:
I give you Sys/OEM/ROM/ext folders, right?
You download the kitchen from Bepe's (dark forces team), rigth?
You actualize the Platformrebuilder.exe, right?
as i said, the runtime error becomes a xip error (rom folder), or maybe a payload error. Discharge others, because before send you the files, i probe to build a rom (0409 of course) and flash it on my elfin.
Did you change anything? did you use your old kitchen?
If you did all this, i suggest you ask bepe's directly.
Now i remember, just in case, if you edit wrong the BuildRom.bat cuold have this error.
Hello
I have use the plateforme rebuilder downloaded from the darforceteam website.
I don't have mae changes in the kitchen. Just run the.bat !
That's why i think there is a problem in the rom folder.

Ok nixeus, maybe the problem is there. I sent you an edited bat with the patches to the folders in the structure i use. this bat is prepared too to work with the platformrebuilder.exe update
Humm ok, but,why i want to do ?
Sorry nixeus, i don't understand your question. Can you explain a little more?
oups, sorry, my question was : what i want to do ? ( I repeat thaht i didn't jave modify the .bat )
Thanks a lot
Ok, i'll upload the hole kitchen and send you the link. Then you can compare the files.
Well friend, here is it. You have to put all the files (the ones i send you before) and this ones in a nwe folder in C:
With this you obtain a basic 21806 wm 6.5 rom in 0409
I sugest you to keep this original, and copy the same with other name, it will work Ok, like other kitchen, and meka your changes there.
