I love all you chefs but I can see who is using what kitchens based off the packages and the outcome of the Rom. Nothing against you guys or the guys who made the kitchens possible. Here is my dilema, I want to make a clean rom. To me a clean rom is one that has the apps I want without extra files, or extra reg keys. To do this I need actual cabs. Anyone know where i can get the actual cabs for such applications as ArcSoft 3.x or 4.x? Maybe even the latest intent MIDlet manager?

here you are
if there is anything missed on mms tell me, because i extracted it as quick as i can
java tested and worked (unless the registries, you have to apply them after flashing the rom, otherwise you can edit default.hv)
oh oh many wait for them, ok if you use them don't forget to write extracter name
NTS, there are no factory cabs for MMS, camera, etc. HTC jumbled the packages up so that the DRM registry settings are in the camera package and the streaming media registry settings are in the MMS package. Getting rid of extra reg. entries is a pain, but it's best done by analyzing the OEM packages and removing them. Also, installing these apps as cabs would eat up so much storage memory, it's really impractical to install them as such. Hence, the kitchen craze.

Hi NTS
I Honestly admire your work and here is some info you requested. I took this MMS 4.0 out of trinity rom and without making any change I just copied these two folder in SYS folder during rom cooking using pandora ROM Kitchen. .....And results were superb......and now we got working MMS 4.0 in 5.2.318 and 5.2.1413.

if you tried, did you open mms confg.??
See, you all use kitchens, but im old school. nothing like hardwork to make it right. So, I use my own tools. Thats why I want just the needed files. I have what I like to call the perfect rom, but MMS was the issue. Now with these Java and MMS will correct the issues I have been having. Thanks.

just dumping everything into windows, I suppose. I'm curious if there's any file size / overall space savings / or performance gain using this vs what's already in the kitchen. (I'm not on my lt so I can't see my schtuff)

Cool. I like to try and keep all of the latest fixes and patches in one place and publically available. It's a pain in the arse to do, but I'd like to think it's helping the big picture...
Ok, the only issue i have with 4.x version of mms is that it replaces the Text Messages box and merges sms and mms into one folder. then you have to select new and select either sms or mms. Any way to fix this? Also, when you choose the option to try and setup the mms server it does not come up unless you are in a blank mms. hmm, more fun configs to figure out.

Can you share your perfect rom with us. I'm using Pandora 3.1 which is the best rom for me so far, but I'd love to try yours.
I have taken the tile to make an illustrated cook book that should make anyone a junior cook. It is based on a modified version of Wizard rom packer kitchen by Ed Haas using the tools created by BEPE and MAIMAICH.
This document is in the form of a word doc.

Very helpful...thanks
dziekuje!
Thanks for putting this together! I could have used it last night at 3am! This is great stuff for a rookie cooker (like myself).
I just used it to cook up a rom from your Version 8.1 318 WM6. Flawless!

I didn't see any tools for if someone wants to take an already cooked ROM (the nk.nbf) and then cook from that. Just a heads up you might want to add something telling everyone how to do that.

57MB is the final compressed size of the OS (aka nk.nbf). As long as your Dump folder is under 80MB (81MB if you really push it), you're safe. If you don't mind some trial and error, you can just keep on adding packages until the *.nb builder gets an error.

I am right there with you. There are some amazing roms that I just love beyond words, but would love to take out a few things like Windows Live, and instead add the few apps I consider essential...and being a pain in the @ss to the original rom developer just to cater to my needs is not what I am into.
Thanks to theloon for this tutorial...if at some point you feel bored and would care to release an updated tutorial describing how to do this using an already cooked rom that we'd like to tweak a bit...well I'd sure appreciate it.
EDIT**
Found this thread...however, if someone who knows what the hell they are talking about could create a pictured tutorial supplementing these steps, I would be so happy, I'd name a soon to be born kitten after you (and give you the cat too...hint hint...really I mean it, I got kittens for a good home)...I am still stuck on stupid when it comes to making OEM packages and stuff though.

Good day all
while I am surfing the internet I have found this software called "Open Market", it is similar to Microsoft Market but this market is only for free softwares. also, it has one advantage over microsoft market, you have the option to install the downloaded softwares in your storage card (not limited to your device memory only).
there are alots of free softwares there. Its really nice, try it.
Instructions:
1- install .net framework (download it from here http://justpctech.com/PPC/NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab for those who dont have it in thier mobiles)
2-install the program (cab file attached)
3-run "Open Market", click on register and make your account
4-Login and enjoy 100's of free softwares
Cool
Thanks, nice Job!

It is a tool for reengineering 3rd party, closed, binary Android apps. It can decode resources to nearly original form and rebuild them after making some modifications; it makes possible to debug smali code step by step. Also it makes working with app easier because of project-like files structure and automation of some repetitive tasks like building apk, etc.
It is NOT intended for piracy and other non-legal uses. It could be used for localizing, adding some features or support for custom platforms and other GOOD purposes. Just try to be fair with authors of an app, that you use and probably like.
Features:
decoding resources to nearly original form

Why not? It just builds apps, not run them, so it's a question like: "Do smali can also work with Android 1.5?" ;-)
That "Android SDK installed with 2.1 platform" requirement doesn't mean, that it will build apps for 2.1 . It will just use 2.1 resources, but these are (must be) backward compatible.

Maybe much later :-/
Even if we will be able to decode it and rebuild, we'll have FC after FC. The point is: framework resources must have constant resName<->resID mappings (eg. @android:string/day must be a 0x01040298), because they are referenced by all apps and unfortunately aapt doesn't give us control over resIDs mappings. I think framework-res.apk and other system files are built using some Google's private tools.
We need to create aapt-like tool, that will use custom resIDs mappings - it should be possible and maybe not so hard, but currently I have other things to do.

Just a bit of handy info if your wanting to test all the different features of your custom rom. HTC have a self diagnostic tool built in to all of they're android handsets. You can access this by simply dialling *#*#3424#*#*. It can test everything from data connections to the hardware of the device. It can be used to help work out if you have hardware issue with the handset or even help pinpoint issues caused by 3rd party apps or customisations you have made.
Nice, any idea what's the exact .apk for this? Maybe there's a way of importing it into other custom ROMs for fun.

There isn't any need. It's included in every HTC android rom although it would be interesting to see if it worked on another manufacturers handset. Unfortunately I don't have one to try because I've only used HTC's since 2003.

Just so you know you don't install it like a normal .apk. You'll need to put the files in /system/app. the only way to access it is with the code on the first post.
Darn. I pushed both files to the /system/app folder and typed in the command. No dice.
I was hoping to get this thing to work, I think my good-old desire is starting to go! I need to verify.
