Yes, everyone wont succeed in installing android kitchen for the first time but its not a hard thing ,
If you have installed Android kitchen head over to the next step
STEPS TO CREATE WORKING FOLDER
This is the way that i usually use while making a custom rom
Things needed
-System folder of your stock rom :- Copy and paste to your sd card through root explorer
-boot.img :- Get it from your nandroid backup
Now just zip both system folder and boot.img(as a single zip file) and move it to C/Cygwin/home/username(varies according to your system)/kitchen/original_update/here
After that click on cygwin desktop shortcut and type "cd kitchen" and hit enter now type "./menu" and hit enter
You will see the kitchen's main menu here
Type "1" and hit enter to setup your working folder Select the zip you placed in the above step and hit enter now kitchen will automatically make a update script and extracts the rom from the zip file you can find it in C/cygwin/home/username/kitchen/WORKING_xxxx
You are now ready to modify your stock rom

Hello, i'm a new member from indonesia so my post still fewer than 10. so i can't post in developer's area.
NOTE : THIS TUTORIAL ONLY TESTED BY QUALCOMM DEVICES!
I'm a noob, and i wanna share you how to PORT ROMS with 30 easy steps!
This is 100% working, incase the device you wanna port have a same hardware Processor, GPU, RAM, Chipset, etc and screen resolution (THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT)
this is veryy easy... you don't need copy paste system files, this is very EASY..
in this method we will use port boot.img to new rom.
What you need :
- Boot Recovery Image RePacker : http://boot-repacker.blogspot.com/
- NotePad++ : http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.6.7.html
- Stock ROM for your device
- Rom your wanna port
- Open mind and never give up to trying !!
OK, NOW WE START
1. Create 2 folder in place you can easily find it. example : "D: DATA/"
2. name it "BASE" and "PORT"
3. Extract your stock rom to "BASE" and Port ROM to "PORT".
4. Open Base And Port folder
5. Open Boot repacker. drag your stock boot.img to that program and click "unpack". now you see "boot.img-unpacked" folder.
6. Do it that again on Port Boot.img
7. Go to boot.img-unpacked folder on port. delete the Zimage.
8. copy stock Zimage on "boot.img-unpacked" folder at BASE folder.
9. paste it on boot.img-unpacked folder at PORT folder
10. go to ramdisk. find a file with a "fstab" name
11. in my case, it has 3 files.
12. open it all on Notepad++
13. Replace PORT partition with Stock (BASE) in all 3 fstab files (recovery partition, boot partition, system partition,etc)
14. drag boot.img in port to boot repacker. click "Pack". now you see new boot.img with numbers. (boot.img-Numbers.img)
15. delete boot.img without numbers. and rename the new boot.img (with numbers). delete the numbers. and the name should be (boot.img)
16. go to meta-inf/com/google/android in port and base folder. open updater-script file with notepad++
17. Replace PORT block partition with stock(BASE) again. example : boot.img extract to block p.., format system block p.., etc
18. save it.
19. pack port with .zip type
20. copy to your hand phone storage
21. go to cwm
22. wipe dalvik cache
23. wipe data/factory reset
25. wipe cache partition
26. install your rom
27. wait... finish!
28. reboot your system
29. waittt.. booted!
30. enjoy your new ROM!

Hi XDA! I am a mtk6592 developer, and a key developer of the Micromax canvas gold A300 & Canvas knight A350. People have often asked me for the method i use to port roms. So, I've finally decided to share my method. It is so easy, U can port roms using your phone!
PROS:
1. Works for most devices with any mediatek chipset (may also work for qcomm i don't know)
2. Can be used to port firmwares of same SDK (eg. porting 4.4.4 to 4.4.2)
3. Every feature of port rom is present
4. Takes no more than 5 mins to port
CONS:
1. Ported rom usually has several bugs
2. Problems related to boot.img need a computer
3. Ported rom size may be much larger if you are running a non-aosp based rom (sense, touchwiz etc.)
So lets begin!!
1. Download and extract the rom to be ported.
2. (Assuming you are using your phone\tab) Go to /system/bin and copy everything. Paste it in the port rom's /system/bin BUT DON'T OVERWRITE ANYTHING!
3. Repeat step 2 for /system/lib
4. Now copy file "vold" from /system/bin to /system/bin of port rom folder. Overwrite.
5. Do the same for libMali.so from /system/lib.
6. Form /system/etc/permissions, copy handheld_core_hardware.xml and platform.xml to port rom's /system/etc/permissions. Overwrite.
7. Do the same for everything in /system/etc/firmware and /system/usr/keylayout/generic.kl
8. You can keep build.prop of port rom as it is, or edit according to your convinience. (dosen't matter much)
9. Get your device's mount points from any other rom made for your device. Replace these in port's updater-script.
10. Replace port's boot.img with your stock boot.img.
11. Zip and Flash!!
12. If there is a bootloop, you have to unpack boot.img and make necessary changes. Please follow other guides on XDA for that.
13. For bug fixes, refer to Different guides present .
Please hit the THANKS button if I helped you!!
I have ported over 10 roms using this method for my device alone.
Link for bug fixes......
This is simply repackaging the work of others and redistributing it on another device.
And step one should be, Ask rom owners permission.
Step two....Credit them appropriately.

HOW TO PORT ROMS TO YOUR MTK WITH ANDROID DEVICE
Most of us have always wanted to use custom roms but there just no custom roms for our devices so we just use different app launchers and uninstall some bloatware to make our stock rom feel good.
Rom porting makes it possible to use a custom rom on your mtk device provided in this tutorial they have the same chipset (example: mtk 6582 ported to mtk6582).
THINGS NEEDED :
1. B1 archiver / ES FILE EXPLORER
2. Root Browser.
4. A rooted device is also needed but not much important if you have CWM INSTALLED WITHOUT ROOT.
PROCEDURE :
1. Make a backup of your current rom, preferably CWM backup. You can either use MTK DROID TOOLS or ROM MANAGER...
The location of the backup will be at clockwork/backup/"date and time of the backup ". This is very important since we will need stuff from the back up and we will also use the backup to recover the phone should the ported rom give any problems.
2. At this point I presume you have already downloaded the apps needed and the custom rom you want to use which is in a zip format( this was not important but I had to bring it up cause I know zombies could be reading this.
3. Now extract the custom Rom with Root Browser. if you extracted with Root Browser then the location will be "speedsoftware/extracted/"folder with the name of the custom rom "".
4. Now open Root Browser and open the folders side by side "custom rom which will be ported at one side and other side will be used for searching for the location of the things needed for the custom rom.
5. Delete the following from the Custom rom:
Boot.img
logo.bin (You do this only when you like the Your current logo.bin)
system/vendor
system/usr
system/lib/hw
system/lib/modules
system/lib/libncurses.so
system/etc/firmware
system/etc/vold.fstab
system/etc/vold.fstab.nand
system/etc/bluetooth
6. Now that you have deleted them from the custom rom replace them. You will find the boot.img at clockworkmod/back/"folder with date and time"/boot.img. The rest of the files and folders will br located in the Root /system. Just copy and paste
7. Now at the custom Rom panel go back to where you find the "META-INF" folder,open /google/android will now long press on "updater script" and tap on open with then select text editor.
8. Check The mount & format point check something like this mmcblk0p. A number is always written after the "P" replace the number of your BASE to PORT.
9. Check multi select in B1 archiver Select ( do not archive the folder the files are in but the individual files in the folder containing the extracts)
10. Compress to ZIP file wait till the process finished. Now boot to recovery and flash your ROM
Good luck in porting Your Rom... I have used this method to port 5 roms including AROMA ROMS. and I have never ported a Rom with a pc before
MAYBE U NEED TO EXTRACT THE BOOT IMG TOO IF THIS DIDNT WORKED
DO IT AS FOLLOWS
Requirements:
-- BusyBox (cpio, gunzip and gzip is mandatory)
-- /System Write Permissions (Does not need to be a modified kernel)
-- Terminal Emulator
-- ES File Explorer (or similar)
-- Hex Editor (or use of DD)
-- Open up your android terminal emulator.
-- Now go ahead and pull your boot.img from your device (or use another one if you wish)
-- Open up your boot.img with the Hex Editor and look for: ANDROID!. Remove everything before it so that the ANDROID! header is the first to be read then save it over top of the boot.img. NOTE: This is only required if you are using a stock boot.img.
OR USE THIS IF U DIDNT UNDERSTOOD THIS
