In case other people have the problem: Update to the latest version of ppckitchen!
Hello,
I was not satisfied with the current available rom's and decided to cook my own, I used the ppcgeeks kitchen to cook a 21042 wm6.1 rom and included quite some OEM packages. After building and flashing the ROM my device started, and got in the SPL (where you can see the radio/rom version). But it would not get past there. I tried flashing again (without sim and or memory card), hard resetting after flashing, and upgrading the hardspl to 3.59. All to no avail.
I thought it might be an issue with one of the OEM packages, so I started a new project in the kitchen and left everything to default and directly build the bare ROM. The problem still persists. I noticed the only carrier available as a choice in the kitchen was AT&T, I live in europe so this might cause a problem? (absolutely not sure about this, just poking around).
Some more details:
R: 1.70.19.09
G: 25.83.40.02H
D: 3.14.00.00
Luckily I can get in the bootloader and flash whatever I want and just go back to the stock ROM, but I rather want my own, so I was wondering, can anyone help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance, peterrus
Does the backlight dim or does it stay on constantly? If it dims, then you have an issue with your SYS or OEM. If It doesn't dim, then you have an issue with your XIP. Was the kitchen already ported to run on a Kaiser? Which kitchen did you use from ppcgeeks? A little more information will help figure out your issue.
It does dim indeed, so it seems I have an issue with my SYS or OEM, tell me more.
I used the latest version but I am not aware of any versionnumbers, this is the announcement post: http://www.ppckitchen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=650
I could get the versionnumber from the kitchen, but I just uninstalled to try an older version, and updating it takes about 2 hours.
The kitchen is said to be kaiser compatible
I see however that there are others experiencing the same issues. I am gonna try an older version of the kitchen and see what happens.
Test the older kitchen like you are already doing. I suggest creating a base build without any packages included, so you can verify that the base ROM is OK. This will help with the process of elimination. Now, you should also read any documentation with that kitchen to verify that the OEM folder is exclusively for the kaiser. The OEM folder contains device specific settings and drivers. So using an Elfin or Polaris OEM with you kaiser will cause lots of issues (mainly the one you're experiencing now, stuck at splash screen). Again, give the older kitchen a try and post how that goes and we'll go from there.
Using the old kitchen () I can not succesfully produce a working 21042 ROM.
Using the old kitchen I can produce a working 20931 ROM.
I have not tested the new kitchen yet. But when I find time for that I will post results.
So, using the new kitchen I also can not produce a working 21042 ROM, a 20931 ROM works fine though, so I think i'll just leave it like this.
Unzip and add
This to your sys and see if it helps.
The ppckitchen authors have pushed an update which seems to fix the issue, so josh: I haven't tried your fix yet because I prefer the official update over other solutions, but thanks anyway it seems I can now succesfully boot the rom.
Will the bootscreens listed here
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=604446
work on the Sprint Hero?
Several roms have these already
use the Fresh Kitech at www.geekfor.me to push them to the phone (they are already in the kitchen)
Unless you are using a 2.1 rom, I think they do the boot animation differently. I haven't tried the kitchen in a while so I don't know if it supports 2.1 roms yet.
Hey All, I am rather adverse to running custom roms and kernels on my Skyrocket for stability reasons and was trying to figure out a couple of things:
1. Debranding/ removing the Rogers splash screen, There was a thread about overwriting the files in /system/media , but the impression I got was that I couldn't do that in stock.
2. CRT off animation,I was trying to do this manually but it doesn't seem to work properly, always have errors decompiling framework-res.apk, does the rom have to deodexed, should I decompile with dependencies or both?
Thanks
Uhhh, devs any help here?

Here is the script
I'm trying to make a SGS3 themed rom based on CM9, but i get error 6 In recovery.
I would be happy if some excperienced devs took a look at it
I've seen a few custom ROM's with bootscreens which are sort of persistent. What i mean is that they tend to stay even after flashing a new custom ROM.
The bootscreen is not in an rle file. I would like to create and customise my own ROM so i'm wondering how this is done.. Any idea anyone?
