Hello all ,
I ran into the problem of liking a rom that was protected..
no problem , only thing i want to add was remote tracker.
the rest i do with uc.
So with the help of da_g i striped a kitchen to unpack and repack protected roms.
to add a package , just unpack..put your cab in the dump dir and add it to config????.txt
and repack.
that way i get the use the protected rom with my own package build in.
thought i would post it.

hi arnoldl,
i want to thank you and everyone have helped you to create and publish this. i was searching something like this since many time ago, finally i found your thread and i was able to add RT to the rom i use!
i think this will be useful to many other people
i have changed something and it works perfectly with my blackstone!
thank you thank you.
bye
What is the difference in extracting ngh file, adding cab file to dump folder, updataing config.txt and recooking compared to installing the cab file using UC?
Can we add visual kitchen packages to this dump folder? If we can add do we need to just copy all the files in all the folders of the package to dump folder?
eg: in the package there are some files in 0409 and some in files folder , _skip, app.reg, all these goes to dump folder?
Thanks
@DarkRenegade
No problem , happy that i helped...
@kk0813
If i would buy a phone of the street , i would do the folowing.
- check if there are funny things on it
- format the card
- hardreset the phone
and gone is your remote tracker protection..
If i cook rt in, with my personal settings for it.
after a hard-reset it's installed again , so i can still gps find my stolen phone after a complete format.
only next step i want to take is to re-hard spl , to prevent reflashing if posible.
but these days with new 6.5 images coming out so quick i flash so often i will wait with that one
but all other things i install by uc or later shashimi
Don't know if you can add kitchen files.
never tried it.....
btw attached a new version.
remade it to work with the new envirus kitchen the newer 6.5 roms are using..

You have a Trojan horse in first post!!!
All this to add a couple of cabs to a ROM ? Isn't it a whole of a lot easier to just... you know... install them after ? Or maybe even UC them to make it even lazier ?
Does this work with other roms from other devices? Or just Raphael roms?
I tried this but it extracts os.nb and os.nb.payload and also os.nb.extra but when it starts to create dump it fails
this is the log
ImgfsToDump 2.1rc2
Cannot map file imgfs.bin

Use the latest version of extractor, place the .nbh file in BaseROM, rename it to RUU_signed.nbh and run the extractor.
That worked for me.
A little late reading this, but I downloaded it to rip a rom from a little known site & guess what... Theres a trojan in that 1st post, virus software just riped it out of 2 kitchens recently downloaded as well as that 1st post file.
file namned Win32/Delfsnif.dx
I used your extractor but when i use old (1,2mb) i have problem with rom (sense 2.5 crash , windows menu crash), when i use new extractor (1,9mb) i don;t have a bootable rom (.nbh is very small 15mb-100mb) Is there any solution?
Sorry for my english I hope you can understand me.
I think there are more usefull tools that could help you.
Let's have a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=411915
And I believe that this tool is used by most roms makers.
Sorry but this tool is traying to rebuild protected rom into kitchen (with folders - ext, rom, sys etc.) but this is impossible.
Worked Great ! !
It worked great for me!
Moving to general section
You should just move this to the cooking forum. People are always asking if you can modify cooked roms. Then others are always answering that you can't dump and modify a protected rom, which clearly isn't true. So this would work ok in the Cooking forum (can't even remember the name of the forum, even though I'm a mod there, lol).
If this works, than this is pretty kick ass! I was recently trying to simplify the process as you did but your work looks flawless to me! I'll post as soon as I can confirm it works putting the rom back on an HTC rose (htc s743).
After the rom is dumped, what says what files go in what directories? In the dump directory ALL files are in the dump directory and not in the folder structure they would be after the ROM is flashed to the phone. Where would I find what determines the folder structure?

You never told anybody how to do it and then you complain of constant requests
I don't want to cook Wm6 I just want to change some files in my current WM5 Rom!
Could you please tell me how can I do it?
It does not need to be told how to do it, but told how to search ! A lot of people here know how to do it, just GOOGLE it !
sorry, I've already searched... Maybe I'm searching badly!
Could you please help me?
Basically you need to extract the ROM installer, you will find an nbf file in it, then get an NBF file converter, to convert it into some sort of editable format, then you start cooking the ROM, placing whatever you want, and in the end, convert it back into NBF

Need help too
Yea, Please..my probs are the reconverting my data into a .nb->nbf file...after flashing My phone hangs in First Bootscreen...please help!Only Reflashing helps...i really want to cook a rom by myself.
Ive used THIS kitchen...but it is for Wizard-devices only....but i think,it can be used for Tornado,too.
as far as we tried we could not make a proper dump of the wm5 tornado...
but i did manage to build a rom kitchen with wm6 for the tornado...this was a whileago and the base rom is the same as the current available...if ther is enougth request i may be inclined to update the RK and release it.
to get you started here is some pointers.... you can use the same tools from the wizard, imgfs tools.
When I use nb2nbf_wizard.exe, is this created nk.nbf flashable for my Tornado (german XDA Phone aka HTC Douton)?
There is an nb2nbf_Tornado File out there,too, but my Phone stuck in first BootScreen.If i use the Wizard-Tools here and use the nb2nbf_Tornado,(by retyping the Start Adress from 8004000(for Wizard) to 8204000 (for Tornado)) it works well fine, Flashing works well,too,but stuck in first Screen every time.Ive only delete the Solitaire-Folder,but it dont work for me..maybe you have more luck!Or...faria may Post a RomKitchen exclusive for our lovely Tornado..
Have you removed the first two bytes of the initflashes.dat? When not, it can't be booting correctly! That was my mistake when I started to cook my own ROM's for my HTC Prophet (XDA Neo)!
What?
really?I may think,it is only needed after a Registryedit....thank you.!
edit:did not work...

i have the same problem like you.
I've made a nk.nbf from the *.nb files with nb2nbf_tornado.exe.
I've also extracted *.nb (OS, IPL, SPL, etc) from nk.nbf from windows mobile 6 alpha and then 'translated' those nb files with nb2nbf_tornado.exe. Same result: succesfull flash, stuck in first screen every time..
so not the "initflashes.dat" file is guilty..
...and nobody out there may help us?
arpy, it seems that if I include only OS without IPL & SPL in nb2nbf, all are OK..
But still with my modified OS does not get over the first splash screen.. maybe i've done smth wrong. In dump folder, I've added some files (some overwritten), i've removed some files, modified initflashfiles.dat (last line blank, + removed the two first bytes with winex), modified the hv files (saved in unicode standard, first line REGEDIT4, last line blank.. complied: no errors). replaced carrier_splash and shutdown
that's all what I've modified ...
edit:
arpy, try to translate only the OS module with nb2nbf_tornado. and tell me the result. also, tell me what changes you've made
edit2: found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298327 . improved tools
edit3: i've dumped my modified OS module with tadzio's ImgfsTools and discovered that initflashfiles.dat had the two bytes that i've removed with win hex.. what the?!
i've removed again, and run the whole build rom process again , but this time with tadzio's ImgfsTools.
Same result.. (stuck in first screen)
Maybe i've modified something wrong.
edit4: i've repeated the whole process and OS module flash and work ok . I haven't tried yet with all modules, only OS. I think I've made some mistakes when trying to replace drivers.
@DSF
Can you post a Step-By-Step Solution?I want to figure out my prob...which tools do you use?And how?May you Post your ROM?
well, i will post summary. i hope to release a "tornado romcook kitchen" and more detailed steps these days.
here is my OS module:
http://rapidshare.com/files/45915194/RUU.rar.html
right now i'm trying to figure out how to make the sd driver from iphone/other roms to work on my custom rom. every time i try other sd driver, i cannot view the card.
i'm using the tadzio's ImgfsTools (see link in my previous post).
steps:
- download typho5.exe, ImgfsTools, nb2nbf_tornado (you can get them by searching via gogole)
- copy all those files in the same folder, eg: ROMDEV
- copy nk.nbf in ROMDEV
Commands:
1) typho5.exe -x nk.nbf
2) imgfsfromnb.exe 82040000-OS.nb imgfs_raw_data.bin
3) imgfstodump.exe imgfs_raw_data.bin
Now the OS files are dumped in dump folder. Do the changes (delete, copy, modify, etc). When editing registry and initflashfiles.dat file, perform the important steps describeb at http://www.molski.biz/romcooking.html (turn off word wrap and use UNICODE in notepad, etc). If you're dune with those things do next:
4) imgfsfromdump imgfs_raw_data.bin imgfs_new.bin
5) imgfstonb imgfs_new.bin 82040000-OS.nb 82040000-OS_final.nb
if no error occured in the whole process, run 6) nb2nb_tornado.
There, chose the nb files, OS will be 82040000-OS_final.nb and not 82040000-OS.nb. Don't forget to use the correct image name. (eg: for 82040000-OS_final.nb chose OS)
The language, oem, operator version, cid can be left blank.
When you're done, press translate.
Copy the generated nk.nbf file in the rom update folder (RUU), execute ROMUpdateUtility.exe and follow the normal flash steps..
That's all.
Thanks to all those ppl that made this possible
PS: if you flash only the OS module (without IPL & SPL), even if the update proces crashes, you will not 'brick' your phone . Mine happen to crash on 2%.. i transpired instantly

Hi all, I've been trying for quite some time to cook my first rom. I've now read a lot on the subjects here on these forums but it seems the vox is not the easiest device to start with I've successfully extracted all files from an .nbh rom upgrade. I've then extracted everything to /dump folder using prepare_imgfs.exe and imgfstodump.exe. Here I can delete/change/add files in the directory and rebuild the rom with buildimgfs.exe but it is not a very clean cooking... I'd like to be able to use Package tool. Actually I can use it and get the two folders /OEM and /SYS but then I really don't know how to rebuild the rom using Buildos.exe. Does anyone know how to do this ?
Tell me if my english is not very understandable..
I've finally been able to use these tools after a lot of trials and errors. But there is a lot of fixing to do in the building process. For exemple after running OEM and SYS folders through BuildOs a lot of files are missing in temp\dump
It seems every important file is missing in each of the subfolders. Missing dll's, missing exe's...
For example if I look in the zlib.dll\ directory I can see 5 files : imageinfo.bin, imageinfo.txt, S000, S001, S002, S003 BUT no zlib.dll ?! So I have to manually reimport those files... Is this a known issue with buildos and if so is there any solution to it ?
Thanks for any help
My bad, just realised reimporting the dlls is not at all needed
Still speaking alone ?
Perhaps this thread from the Kaiser forum helps you.
Dr Gonzo.... i would have lied to said something but my knowledge of cooking ROMs is zilch.... but i was hoping someones cooks a ROM for the Vox ... so wanted to ask u how its going?
I've been able to build an awkward "kitchen" for the Vox but I don't know yet if the roms built with it are really stable. Awkward because I don't really know how to write batch files and because I had to add a .dsm taken from Bepe's kitchen for Buildos.exe to work (but I delete it once the dump folder is rebuilt). But I have been able to add/remove packages and it seems to work.
I am currently building my rom from the Arabic one with smarttoolkit included, custom system screens, commanager and homescreen, office and HTC audio manager removed, windows live updated, Jbed instead of Jeodek etc... It seems to be stable but some things don't work yet (I still need to edit the registry)
But what I'd really like would be the possibility to add Bigstorage to the rom as it increases free memory from what I've read.
Maybe I can release this kitchen with some instructions and someone better than me could improve it ?
RE
Yeah that would be awesome to get some Vox Rom cooking happening when can you post your kitchen?
I'm in the process of writing a quick guide to go along my very dirty kitchen to show how to use it. For the moment only with HTC_Vox_ARA_1.27.415.4_4.1.13.47_02.98.90 as a base rom because I haven't tested anything else yet.
Ok I need a few opinions.
I am wanting to find out who has the easy and the best Kitchen.
I want to take a "nk.nbf" and edit it.
I want to remove packages that are in there and add others.
I have "TNT.1933_Professional___HTC_Home_Wizard" Rom I have tryed to use "HyperCore Kitchen" but could not get the rom to work.
I took the original ron, extracted it and then re made it (With out changing anything) to see if I was doing it the correct way, but after I loaded the rom it locks up after it posts the ver screen.
Is this the rom I am using or the way I am using it. Or is it the kitchen.
I really want to learn to make my own. So if some one has time to walk me though it I would be ever so greatfull.
I have searched and search the site and most walkthroughs apply to old vers of kitchens. I still tryed to follow them but cant get a rom to work. I know I must be missing something somewhere.

I don't think you have the .rgu's
If the chef deletes the .rgu files you can't rebuild his rom the easy way. You should either seek a rom that has all the files or ask the maker to share them.
Ok thank you
Yep, a lot of the roms have the .rgu files removed. You can use my cooking pack or I recall that there was a Lite version of TNT that was meant for cooking that would still ahve the .rgu files (but then you'll have to get the packages to put in it what you want). Then of course there is theloon's kitchen stuff which has tons of packages and all.
Hi all,
Perhaps it is a newbie question so please bear with me.
I have an i-mate K-Jam flashed with TNT rom (build 20273). It works perfect and nice, however (frankly speaking) I don't like or want some of the APPs installed with this ROM, but I can't uninstall them.
I've searched this forum to find a way to extract the OS (OS only) from TNT rom so that I can flash my wizard and then install all the APPs I want, with no luck. Perhaps my search skills are a little poor...
So would someone please explain if it is possible or not? and if yes, how?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
You cannot remove apps from a cooked rom. Search for Vanilla roms if you just want the base rom without any extras and then you can install you own apps.
well you can, but for that u'll have to dump the ROM first, remove the apps you dnt like and recook it
you can not dump the TNT roms. when you try, there are no RGU'S or DSM's.
You can dump my rom if you like, but you will get some missing files you will have to put back into the oem.
the missing files come from me not editing the rgu's when I cook.
try dumping Hornet5. for the most part you will get complete packages, but also some "missing files". just put them back into the oem/sys and recook.
Thanks for info. Saved me a lot of time.
I finally managed to cook my own rom. Everything works perfect except that:
1) I've used XIP, SYS and OEM files/folders of different builds. Am I going to have problem later?
2) "CommManager.exe" was missing. I've searched the files used in kitchen and the only thing I found is "commmanager.htm". Later I managed to download and install HTC CommManager but I can't assign in to its button (button 6). Is there any solution for that?
3) How may I extract the "splash screen" from one build, and upload it to my phone?
4) Bluetooth is not working. It says there is no bluetooth hardware on device. Also WLAN disconnects after a few seconds. How may I extract the drivers from original ROM and upload it?
I know the above questions are too much, but actually I'm so excited that my first attempt to cook a rom was successful (almost). I hope one of you experts be kind enough to help me solve the above issues and have a perfect phone.
Thanks in advance.
you will have some problems with the initflashfiles.dat in the oem, as well as the "oemtranslation.prvxml" or something which controls your icons for programs and control panel.
The best thing to do is use the same build OEM SYS & ROM folders.
If you dumped hornet 5, then your best bet ist to work with everything in it. I was working at this rom after Sleurhut for about a month or two.
mixing builds of those folders makes you start from scratch again fixing up your oem again.. and again.
as far as the missing files, try using the Xdump method; or use the searcher on your PC to find the missing files folder and the contents.
Dear S.V.I
Thank you so much for your ongoing support and help.
As I've mentioned before, I'm a total newbie trying to have a clean WM6.1 on Wizard. I've searched and read lots of tutorials here and there, but there are still lots of questions remained.
I tried to play with HyperCore (multi-device) today and I failed in the first step. I've extracted the "nk.nbf" from official i-mate KJam ROM using WinRAR. HyperCore is installed and I've a "C:\Core" folder as well as a "HyperCore" folder on my desktop.
The "DumpRom" is asking me to make sure the "nk.nbf" is in "HyperCore\Extract\Source" folder. Well it is there. Press Enter and the error message says: "There is no nk.nbf in Core\Extract\Source".
No it is not. First, it asked me to put it in "HyperCore\Extract\Source" not "Core\Extract\Source". Second, there is no "Extract" folder under "C:\Core". Even after creating Extract\Source under C:\Core and copying nk.nbf there, the same error message appears again.
So, what I'm missing here?
Same
I'm also scratching my head on this problem too. I've even tried creating extract\source folders in locations C:\core\ and desktop\hypercore\ but still no luck.
I'm wondering however that the issue could be caused by vista/7's change from Documents and Settings\user\desktop (2000, XP) to Users\user\desktop.
It may change the way the batch files are called but i'm really rusty on batch commands these days
I would start with the sticky "How to cook a ROM" thread, focusing on CRACING's kitchen, then move to Nekid Angel (Post #3)
where you will find a more updated ROM ready to cook. If you want to try WM6.5 a good ROM and kitchen is at [WM Kitchen] Wizard Kitchen or CRACING's RC6. I have been playing around with that.
You might move your discussion to one of the cooking or kitchen threads mentioned above, too, since that is where others will look.
Perfect
That's what i was looking for thanks for the heads up N2rjt!
I have been using many kitchens over the past year. Cooking horrible roms, decent ones and now a pretty good one. My problem was always the various tools lying all over my hard drive. Luckily I came across this litte gem by Ervius
Package Tools and BuildOS rolled into one. I also noticed that it handles rgu files much better than the previous BuildOS, it choked on an incorrect rgu file. Which in turn allowed me to get Video working in HTC Album 2
I have modified the batch files for our Wizards and have been cooking and im loving it
PackageTools+BuildOS (Latest combined version)
rgu-2-xml : Convert .rgu to provxml files
SYSVersion : Generates a version list of your SYS Folder
All the usual build tools :G'Reloc, M'Reloc, ImgFS Tools
AllPackagesToOne - Protect your rom from being ripped apart and the whole world being able to share in your utter cooking brilliance, via a tickbox ofcourse
Automatic Find and Fix duplicate file errors during BuildOS process
More features which I am either too lazy to list or dont use at all
Just add SYS,ROM and OEM folders. It also have a nice feature which allows you to select OEM Packages and save it as a preconfigured rom. Extra OEM packages can be placed in a Packages folder. BuildOS will load those files also (No more OEM's all over your hard drive).
BuildOS also runs G'Reloc during the dump process, but for good measure I also included it in the batch file.
Also added -conservative to the Imgfs Tools portion of the script to protect against overcook
BuildOS generates pretty log files which shows where stuff went wrong
Extract the zip file. Run Kitchen.exe and watch the magic at work.
Note
For some reason the output window text is black on a black background, but at the top is a nice running status. If not sure just hilight the output window.
If you start up and It complains about folders just create them

Hi,

Thanks for great kitchen.

It does, in the prettiest little tick box you have ever seen, just below the Output Window. One of the really cool features of this version of BuildOS is the ability to scan for and fix duplicate files
sounds really impressive! downloading...
I'll recook my rom with it and let you know how it went
where should I extract this kitchen?
Error: pkgdll is missing
Never mind. copied it to the same folder as the kitchen.exe
I cant cook... .net problems
Many problems with the kitchens... why I cant install .net frameworks more than 2.0 that i have why... cause It said on every reinstalation missing file the installer will be quit! GOD DAmn... I think I need to reformat my PC and almost backup 40 GB info or... does anybody has an utiliti that erase all of anay program that stucks on uninstall or repair or install? i need to kill those .Net frameworks.

What OS are you running on your pc ? .net 2.0 and higher really like XP Sp2. Do a google search for CCleaner and "Uninstall Utility" this might help before you format dude.
Errors I am facing:
can not find \ROM folder
Windows can not open this file: OS.NB.Payload
Windows can not open this file: OS.NB.extra
BuildOS: Error, can not find ROM Folder!!!
Where are these files supposed to go? can you provide a tree map?
Can you also tell me what exe opens what file?
I'm almost having to pour cold water over my self
The main issue is not knowing where the ROM folder is supposed to go.
Also, not being able to see what the thing is doing (black on black) is really frustrating me also.
When you get a chance, let me (us) know how to use this cooker. it looks like it can do a lot more than I'm used to... but at the moment I am finding it useless.

->Compile Tools (OS.nd encoding tools)
->Flash (Created by Batch file, your new OS.nd ends up here)
->OEM (I like to put the BASE OEM Folders in here OEMAPPS etc)
->Packages (This is where I drop my custom OEM folders)
->ROM (OS.nb XIP,romhdr.bin lives here)
->SYS (Yeah well we know this one)
The error you are getting is when you try and extract a rom with Package Tools in the kitchen. Here is the procedure:
Create a base folder, I normally use Base_Buildnumber_Device
Select your Dump Type in the bottom check boxes, either a folder where you have already dumped a rom or an *.nb,*.nbf type file
Start your kitchen and select Open on the Package Tools tab.
Browse to the folder you have just created select the folder of rom file based on the above selection
Package tools will now extract the rom and create OEM and SYS Folders if possible
In case of cooking which I believe you are after:
Create the above folder structure with all files in place
Select BuildOS tab
Click Load Rom
Edit OEM's etc and just press Go

Dude I battled to get the whole thing running as the tut's where for Kaiser and the tools were abandoned by the looks of it. But once i started using the cool right click and import package features I was sold.
Sorry. double post.

Yeah I realised now that when I zipped up the Kitchen I left pkgcommon.dll in the Tools folder, this should be copied to the same folder as Kitchen.exe.
Your error however comes from me not stating the .net Framework 2.0 or highers is required. I take these for granted since I have Visual Studio installed on my machine anyway
