Hello guys, i had requests to teach how-to cook successfully ROMs for the HTC Wizard, so i decided to start this thread and tell you guys how to cook using Video Tutorials

POST#2 Basic Terms
POST#3 Basic Things
POST#4 Cooking using Cornelha’s Kitchen
POST#5 Cooking using CRBuilder
POST#6 Porting ROMs (Coming Soon...)
POST#7 Extras (OEM Packs, Ported SYS and XIPs, etc.) (Coming Soon)
NOTE: I would keep on editing this thread as i remember of more things.... Cooking is a large complicated process
Basic Terms:
Basic Terms:
Base ROM:
Base ROM is a ROM used as a base of your Cooked (Customized) ROM, or the ROM to which you’ll be making changes while cooking.
Cooking & Cook:
Cooking means preparing or building a ROM (i.e. adding software, changing registries and settings, changing images/graphics, etc.), and the one who does it is known as the cook.
Extended ROM (ExtROM):
Wizard has a ExtROM of about 10MB, this ROM can also be utilized while cooking but must be kept in mind it is also a read only mind, well it can be used to store *.CAB or other files, for use after ur Customized ROM has been flashed
OEM:
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) is typically a company that uses a component made by a second company in its own product, or sells the product of the second company under its own brand. The specific meaning of the term varies in different contexts.
The OEMs used in ROM Kitchens are extracted form .CAB files. They are program files of software (i.e. .exe, .dll, .lnk, etc). They contain the information that where the files would be copied when a ROM is flashed and what are the registry keys of that software, some types of files you will find in OEMs are:
initflashfiles.txt – these files have the information that where the files are to be copied once the ROM has been flashed. They are not present in every OEM, but are in most of them.
*.rgu - these files have the registry keys of the OEM (Software), they must start with “REGEDIT4” and have a black line at the end, else they won’t work. They are not present in every OEM, but are in most of them.
*.dsm – just leave them, they aren’t of any use to us.
*.provxml - these files can do the work of both *.rgu and initflashfiles.txt files, they contain the information of files to be moved after flashing and registry keys to be enterd, but the diference between them and *.rgu and *.initflashfiles.txt is that .provxml files are executed when the ROM is ran first time, so they change any of the registry keys, applied by *.rgu files and remove/change any changes made by the initflashfiles.txt. They are not present in every OEM, but are in only some of them.
Program Files – these files are files of the software and are necessary to run it, these may include files of any of the following types e.g. .exe, .dll, .rar., .lnk, .brn, .swf, .html, etc.
Porting:
Porting means that, a ROM is designed for another device and you make it compatible for your device, so that it can run on your device, without any problems (except minor bugs caused during cooking).
ROM Kitchen:
ROM Kitchen is a kitchen used to cook ROMs for the Windows Mobile Device. They
are of different types by different cooks/programmers.
Basic Things:
Basic Things:
Creating a Shortcut (*.lnk file):
It’s very easy, create a New *.txt file. Open it in Notepad and write the following in it.
#”\source path\source file.exe”
And rename that file to *.lnk
EXAMPLE:
I have a file called ABC.lnk, it has the following written inside it:
#”\Windows\ABC.exe”
Editing Initflashfiles.txt:
This is very important file, when the Wizard gets a hard-rest or flashed it builds directory structures, copies files to (as example) the Program Files directory.
These are some examples from initflashfiles.txt:
Directory("\Program Files"):-Directory("ABC")
Directory("\Program Files\ABC"):-File("ABC.exe","\Windows\ABC.exe")
As you can see, not as tough as it looks, I am going to explain to you these two lines to tell you what do they mean.
-Directory("\Program Files"):-Directory("ABC")
(In this line “\Program Files” is the directory where a new directory "ABC")
-Directory("\Program Files\ABC"):-File("CBA.exe","\Windows\ABC.exe")
(In this line the file “ABC.exe” in the directory “\Windows” gets copied to directory “\Program Files\ABC” and gets renamed to “CBA.exe”
Very Easy, isn’t it?
So if u make a “initflashfiles.txt” file yourself or edit one, make sure that the last line of the files is empty.
Editing *.rgu files:
When editing *.rgu there are 4 things very important:
1. Turn off Word Wrap in Note Pad
2. On the first line should be REGEDIT4 and nothing else
3. The last line of the file should be blank
4. The files should be save in Unicode, not any other format.
The Windows Mobile Registry has 4 keys:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER]
[HKEY_USERS]
Make sure that every registry is in the *.rgu file or a *.provxml file else your respective program might not work!!
Making an OEM:
Making an OEM is easy, use this software to convert *.cab files into OEMs
Cooking using Cornelha’s Kitchen
Cooking using Cornelha’s KitchenHello, now I’ll show you how-to cook a Custom ROM for HTC Wizard using Cornelha's Kitchen. We’ll be using XIP and SYS from WM6.1 Build 20931(already ported for HTC Wizard). Please download this file.
1. Extract the “WM6.1 Build 20931 (cornelha's Kitchen).rar” file you downloaded and open the extracted folder.
2. Now you'll find here 4 folders of your use, OEM, Packages (sometimes needs to be manually created), ROM and SYS - OEM & Packages folders have the OEMs of the Software you want to add to your Cooked ROM, ROM folder has the XIP of your ROM and SYS has the basic Windows Mobile OS files.
3. Now let’s add OEMs to our Packages Folder, but b4 lets have a look in the OEM folder. The four folder you saw in the OEM folder are basic files/drivers needed for ever WM ROM to run, and can be used to cook any WM ROM.
4. Lets add OEMs to our Packages Folder.
5. Now go to the root of kitchen and run Kitchen.exe and go to Build OS tab and press on LOAD ROM button.
6. Under the title Packages to build into the ROM, check the apps you want in your ROM and uncheck those which you don’t want to.
7. Once done so, press “go” and wait...
8. The All packages into one option allows your ROM to be extraction protected, no one else can re-modify it after that
9. Now as it’s done, press the OK button in this newly opened window to convert the ROM into OS.nb file
10. Now as our OS.nb has been created to flash it we need it to be in nk.nbf format so let’s convert.
11. Go to Compile Tools folder and run the “Tools NK.nbf_wizard.exe” file.
12. Set language to WWE
13. In the first field select your OS.nb to be converted and in Image Name select OS and it’ll automatically fill in the text box on its left side.
14. Now you done, it’s time to flash let me show u how.
15. Cut/Copy the nk.nbf file to the TOOLs folder and then run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe and flash as you normally would
That’s it, your tutorials ends, you can enjoy cooking still if you have any problems, ask on the THREAD u found this video from and for more information on OEMs and etc search the thread

Cooking using CRBuilder
1.Download the Quick Setup Kitchen from my thread and extract the .rar file and open the folder created.
2.Here only 3 folder are usefull to you, OEM, ROM & SYS - OEM folder has all the OEM packages of the softwares u want to add to ur Custom ROM, ROM folder has the XIP of the ROM ur going to cook and SYS folder has the basic files of ROM u'll be cooking
3.Lets have a look inside the OEM folder. These three folder starting with OEM are the basic folders and your ROM without them wont function correctly, they have drivers, base application, etc.
4.Now add all the OEMs of the softwares you want to cook into our ROM.
5.Now goto the root of the CRBuilder and run Build_ROM.bat amd wait until it compeletes. (See now its cooking so just wait

Does anybody know how to view/browse/export in readable format WP7 registry hives, user.hv & system.hv?

This program doesn't works:

mRegEdit should work if I remember it's name correctly There are also guides on this section for changing the live id through registry without resetting the phone. That search on the top of this page works

Hmm... Seems like you should try that search first... I wrote that guide, first of all.
Second, mRegEdit (it's a link in my first post! you don't even tried to click!) is NOT working for WP7 hive files (and I don't have source code).
Before post useless "suggestions" and RTFM advises, next time try to understand and research issue first.
We do actually read Q&A, or at least I do, but yeah... I've never tried pulling apart the hive files directly. It would be nice if the Search feature in the TouchXperience registry editor would actually search the data like it claims to do... there's only one registry key, and no registry values, that have my live ID as their name.
There is a way to do a full registry dump of a mounted hive. It requires being able to read the output of provxml, though - not sure if that's possible on Samsung. I could try doing it on my (HTC) phone and then search it for my Live Id, however. Basically, do a characteristic-query on a root element, and enable recursion.
It's also worth noting that the Live ID may not be stored as an email address everywhere that matters. Some features might just store a GUID, for example. I don't know of anything that does, but if you manage to change all of the email strings but are still having problems, that might be why.
GoodDayToDie, I've copied hive files (system.hv and user.hv) using WP7 Root Tools (from the \Windows\Registry) to desktop (via ISF) I'm not sure, may be it's just a shadow copies but both files have my new LiveID inside. Also I found 2 entries of the old LiveId (and already found location of the first - it's \HCLM\Software\Microsoft\Zune\Usage\SignedInUser) but that value change to the new one, current LiveID + reboot don't help much.
Probably, previous LiveID's hash or token is stored somewhere in the registry I'm afraid, without tracing it will be very hard to find one...
Update: I found a way to decode (but partially, unfortunately) these registry hives
Unpack attached archive, copy system.hv and user.hv to that directory and run 1.bat.

if you want to use that program, you must first use in conjunction with WMDC/ActiveSync Launcher.
else, you can just use HVEdit.

Another "hmm"... I don't need drag&drop (you can see my status, I'm not a noob but experienced developer with ... he-he, le' me remember ... more than 20 years of development), I'm using Far Manager (and may recommend it to you). But HVEdit can't parse WP7 hive files (with or without drag&drop). If you don't believe me, try yourself, it's very easy.

oops, my mistake. i don't know about mRegEdit, haven't ever used or read of until now, for that matter. CeRegEditor can open *.hv, but not all registry are opened.

aren't you looking to do this? see below attachments.
I've tried on my hive files, copied from the working Focus (by using WP7 Root Tools + ISETool) and HVEdit can't parse these files. May be because I've copied already opened files or shadow copies (I'm not sure).
Your example is for default.hv (I believe, that file was extracted from ROM, not from the working phone, correct?)
P.S. By the way, I already "solved" parsing hives (see my posts above) but it didn't solve the "change LiveID" problem Looks like WP7 stored somewhere previous LiveID token or hash.

when i get home, i will extract the two *.hv files from my HD7 and give it a try.
i believe i had done that before and it worked, but can't be positive on whether i actually did or not.
OK, thanks. You may also try attached (in my post above) rgucomp.exe (it worked for me partially).

Hi mate,
If I understand correctly I believe sh4d0w86 is right, with HVedit you can view/browse/export in readable format WP7 registry hives like user.hv, system.hv and even default.hv.
I am doing that since I cook my first WP7 custom ROM.
Just drag the *.hv file on top of HVedit.exe and immediatly an *hvm file will be created that can easly be edited with any text editor.
Than you can do the same drag and drop process with the *.hvm and the file will be restored to *.hv again.
Hope it helps

hmm. well, sounds like you should try WMDC Launcher in conjunction with WMDC/ActiveSync and maybe WP7 Root Tools v0.9.
less, you want me to try it with your *.hv file(s). you can email them to me, if you want.

Try for what? As I said before, I already found places with the old LiveID (so I don't need parsing tool anymore), but changing to the new LiveID didn't solve the SkyDrive/Twitter access issue.

Try for what? As I said before, I already found places with the old LiveID (so I don't need parsing tool anymore), but changing to the new LiveID didn't solve the SkyDrive/Twitter access issue.

It's kinda stupid to ask this question, but it there alternative to regedit in android that can be edited?

There are many different property files as well as scripts that can be edited. Hope on over to the android dev and hacking forums on xda for more info. There is no equivalent of a single registry but the build.prop file is a good place to start. :fingers-crossed:

As sbdags pointed out, there is no regedit. Android is derived from GNU/Linux. Traditionally, all global configuration files are in /etc and all local configuration files are in your home directory as dot files. Unfortunately, android stores configuration files in a whole bunch of different places.
What are you looking to configure? I'm sure we can help.
Most Android apps store their settings in SQLite databases (use any SQLite client to edit .db files). Some system-wide settings are managed using the Android property system (use getprop and setprop from a command line).

Fortunately, app-specific settings are stored in app-specific files and not in a giant registry blob that keeps accumulating outdated stuff.
Anybody got it. Need it to upgrade to jb.
Sent link in PM.
donwload ruu or open up ruu..when it first starts go into your windows manager and in the link section delete what you have in that section like c:/program files and replace it with %temp% and it will find two encrypted folders with a big letter/digit name and they will show you what time they were opened . open them up and find rom.zip copy it to your desktop and then extract it somewhere safe .. in the folders in rom.zip you will see recovery_signed.img rename it recovery.img and flash it via hasoons tool kit provided in the development section..just in case you ever run into this again ..

hi
can someone upload S7562 Debrick Image please?
for who do not know how to do it:
in android terminal type:
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/debrick.img bs=1M count=128
or just flash this file from recovery.
It will create the debrick.img (128MB) on your sdcard then compress it is a .zip format and upload it here( size after compress is about 40 mb).
and
thanks for helping
your phone can save mine:fingers-crossed:

Why not try the pit file? I haven't tried this debrick method
I had uploaded all those files and guide to debrick it. and it's pretty much safe too.
