http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2364422&posted=1#post2364422
I built a rom recooker, Well "2"
One for Blue Angel, and one for HIMALAYA "yes" Hima That I'll B' on HIMA forum "Bye"
I have tested on both my BA,s and my HIMA bless IT, " been flashed some 50 or 60 times" both recooker's cook good rom's first time,
About the recooker's
A basic, Cooking from dump folder, it's all manual editing ! early wm5 style, Cooks WM 5.0 ' 6.0' 6.1 ROMs just like Ather90s kitchens it all runs from a single start.bat file, That has help text at every step' A walk through some TIPs, Comes with all required tools 'reg workshop' and 'HEX editors' that launch automaticaly at every step, File loaded and open ready to edit, Used tools and files are Backed UP and cleaned up at every step, keeping things nice and tidy, Full menu driven options, Once kitchen has been built to completion the kitchen will be ready !! And NOW ! You'll be making a coffee while the test rom flashes to your phone, 2 and milky for ME pls.
You can Make a COFFEE start this tool decompile your favorite ROM, Change "Say" desktop and splash screen's, of the Rom build and be flashing to your PHONE and your coffee's STILL too hot to Drink It's that simple
You can do moor advanced cooking than that i'm "no" programer and after reading about OEM_packages apply a bit of common sence ! your "COOKING"
I'v got HTC' calc, dialer, WMP, comm,s manager HTC today_*.TSK onscreen keyboard skin all cooked in now in the colors i want ! It took one evening for the BA, A bit of reading about editing ,*rgu ,*.reg and initflashfiles.dat the initflashfiles.dat is were you customize your program folders and move files to different folders Ie: WMP Skins need installing into wmp?? folder Download A WMP_oem and study IT u'll see
1 hr for the hima,
Please NOTE the test build is also part of the kitchen Setup process It takes 15 to 20 mins and if you do it "my way" it will work FIRST TIME Then you know your rom cooker works
Enjoy
Swampy395
iInstall reg editor first. Then "read" !! ReadMe First.txt in Kitchen_BA_0.1.0 folder Put in root of drive ie: c:\Kitchen_BA_0.1.0 for best results DO not rename any part or folders of this kitchen ! you can make your own Folders but not in the "dump" enjoy
P.S. If you don't see my custom images "set" windows default for today screen that should do it
Kitchen upgrade some new tools, and help files added it shows more files than the old one, There are some files that are still hidden
don't unhide them or your rom won't work !
If you want to see the changes you will have to reset your kitchen (1) enter then (R) uppercase R enter this will delete any work you have !!
Decompilers added
Download kitchen
Now ready for use, If you have 0.1.0 version then download upgade and install

Download the 3 zip files Step 1 unpack reg workshop and install IT
Step 2 unpack the other 2 zip files, In the kitchen folder there is an empty tools folder ? "JUST A PLACE MARKER" delete IT and copy the tools folder from zip file were it was,
Step 3 Copy the kitchen to the C drive !!. c:\Kitchen_HIMA_0.1.0 or c:\Kitchen_BA_0.1.0
Step 4 Now read carefully c:\Kitchen_HIMA_0.1.0\"ReadMe First" text IF you don't set reg workshop as default editor the kitchen "WILL NOT WORK"
Step 5 double click start.bat file in Swampy395_????_ROM_ReCooker_0.1.0 folder and read the screen, complete steps 1,2,3,4,5,__7,8, don't do 6, at this point. AT (3)Edit defaul.hv you "will" get an error if you have read the text then you'll fix the error and move on If you don't fix the error your rom will not work read the answer is there ?
Enjoy

I’m a bit to busy at the moment adding some new tools and improving some things for the Kitchen and preparing new guide text, So let me know what your after changing and I try to help. zip and upload the file’s and I’ll have a look Do make sure the files work on your device first I’m assuming there ether cab files or an OEM you downloaded from some ware
P.S. I am also preparing a lesson should be next week if all goes well
PP.S. ather90 has also announced on the himalaya forum he’s doing some cooking lessons for his kitchen 3 coded in “c” It uses the same tools as mine! So keep up on both of us and you should do well! and he’s more experienced than me to

There is a difference between all devices, they all have something diffenent hardware ie some have keyboards and some have gps built in etc. I may be wrong here But i the tools used in this kitchen were used to put wm5 on hima and ba in the first place, power full tools the only limit is your brain power!! you'll find if you read that most of the roms for these devices are from hermes an artimes etc. there is no wm5 or wm6xx roms for these devices and never was?
Please Please Note that Credit for WM5 & WM6.xx Goe's to the real chefs like helmi_c, bepe, and some other fine people hows names i can't remember
A big Thanks to all you guys how made these roms possible for us Thanks guys
We will not be cooking a rom from scratch here just changing some things a bit like skins, reg tweeks,adding and removeing apps, The hard ware drivers are best left to the real chefs
read all the cooking lessons you can find you will learn some thing from them ALL

Maybe cause the ROM, i've use the latest version from sun_dream 19949 with AKU 1.2 and pvdvh 19214 AKU 1.2, if i use "xplode 19209" success no problem.
Did u ever try it with that ROM (sun_dream and pvdvh)? not support with AKU 1.2?

great work anichillus, thankyou for sharing this with the community. I look forward to xploring your kitchen.
This looks great, I only have two questions, any issues in building the ROM or adding packages that have already had tadzio tools applied?
In your opening post you mentioned that you are able to use with any device with small modifications, what are these for a Hermes if any?
Thanks again for the new toy!
BTW, looks very professional and I love the web site, great explanations.
PLEASE NOTE THAT IT'S ORIGINALLY MADE FOR THE HTC WIZARD
I KNOW THAT IT WORKS ON OTHER TOO WITH LITTLE MODDIFICATIONS BUT I SUGGEST TO ASK ME FOR A VERSION SPECIFFICALLY.

None that i know of. It shouldn't have any problems.
But i strongly reccomend that if you don't have a HTC Wizard to ask before you try and do anything.
It's written also in the tutorial
I don't take credit for some of the applications that are included in this kitchen ... like bepe's package tool , tadzio's modified mamaich tools...and of course some of the 3rd party apps.
I take the credit only for the whole thing....i busted my ass of to gather all that and make them easy to use
The moddifications :
Almoust all programs are included already. I would only have to edit some batchfiles to use other programs or other commands for same.
If you know what you are doing, you could use it yourself
For Hermes there are some neat stuff in Tools\TTools - thx to tadzio of course
We use one RUU you use another....stuff like that
One friend of mine built an Terra ROM with this...it's not that hard

Hermes Please
First question, tried to dump ROM and I am getting an error
Error ! There is no nk.nbf in the core/extract/source
I place the ROM NBH in that folder, originally was name RUU_signed.nbh, I tried to rename to nk.nbh, didn't matter.
I am using a hermes.
See next post waiting for the Hermes modifications.

I will, give me little time to sleep lol
I will made moddifications for
HTC Herald / Terra/Wing
and I will do it for the Hermes too, but be litle patient.
You should use the "Dump nb and bin" and use the "Extra" way
The HTC Wizard uses a nk.nbf ..not a nbh. so...extract the .nb and run it thru the Dump nb and bin ... the extra option
You could extract the .nb with the little app in Tools\TTools\Tadzio\ ROMBaker.exe
You have to rename the *.nb into OS.nb and move it into Extract\ folder
It will split....but you won't be able to make it back unless you edit the
C:\Core\Tools\Batch\Create_ROM.bat according to your device....

The .nbh has to be extracted by nbhextract.exe in "tools" folder. then you will recieve os.nb, splash.nb, spl.nb etc
the os.nb can be placed in "extract" folder and then dump it by using "dump .nb and .bin" from extract panel.
lol

I cooked a terra rom with this - by using the wingdump imgf_raw.bin and the xip from terra rom. you dump the rum by using "dump .nb and .bin"
The only mistake i did - was editing the .hv files BUT i forgot to convert the boot.rgu back and that bricked my device.
But you can cook a rom. YOu only have to use PKT "manually". That´s all. Just follow the steps from the kitchen.
I cooked for example a terra rom without transcriber, autoupdate und included batterystatus and totalcommander - no problems with this, when using Aserg upgrade_rom.bat for falshing.
BTW - do you have an official WWE ROm for flashing - if something goes wrong? OK - it will be WM5 then but you can flash?
good luck.

I wouldn't test it on my phone because I don't have it CID Unlocked and couldn't risk it getting bricked as Tmobile hasn't released the official rom for download yet but i'll see what I can do as into building a rom. If you get a free chance this week, wanna walk me through it?
Glad to see you are providing my tiny initflashfiles generator. You added a great functionnality with the automated cab extraction. Well done !
So if I understand this correctly, if someone posted their dump from the Wing I could proceed to cook and flash to my unbranded P4350 using Aserg's method without the possibility of bricking since i have the official HTC WWE that I can re-flash?

For the wing dump you need the XIP from terra dump - but you find it in the Wing-dump thread from Herald forum.
And yes - you can cook - if you have an official rom. SO no worry to brick - you can go back to WM5. lol
Have a try. BUT you must use the "manual" way from PKT. Just follow all teh steps from kitchen. And use the "Dump .nb and .bin" from extract panel.

Building and Editing Polaris ROM's

Hi All
I see now we are getting quite a few custom ROM's from the likes of bepe, panosha and other.
Great Work Guys.
But i would also like to be able to build or a least edit a ROM to exactly meet my requirement. Like adding or removing certain CAB files and making reg edits.
Have been reading a lot of other threads on the site put none seem to deal directly with the Polaris.
So i was hoping some of you great cooks (grovel grovel grovel) would wight a description on how to take a nbh file and extract and edit the different nb parts and then rebuild back to a nbh file ready for flashing.
Thanks
polaris kitchen
sorry......wrong answer
I'd love that too! I want to mod an existing ROM and make it specific to my needs.
Will anyone be so kind and post a short guide how to do this? And make the topic sticky!
First, you can start with Kaiser's Kitchen...and at last, use Dark Simpson tool (htc room tool) to make nbh file (config add Polaris device in tool config)
Cheers,
ouioui
Good place to start is here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser ROM Kitchen Tutorial
Yep , good one, but everything is based on Kaiser.
I don't have a Polaris Radio, neither does the HTC Rom Tool allow to cook Polaris Rom's.
Any other ideas ? Or could someone help ?
Thanks a lot in advance
The Kaiser kitchen works fine and all you need to do with the Dark Simpson ROM tool is change the Model ID from KAIS***** to POLA*****
As always read the threads before you start cooking and make sure you have Hard SPL!!
Thanks
I've been reading all night ;-)
In the HTC Rom tool there is no Polar***** , strange, although I thought I downloaded the newest ini. I've read in another thread that I could use the Kaiser one as it was basically the same device, is that so ?
Other question though:
Talking about Hard-SPL- I've Hard-SPL'd mine , but do I need to include that one in the rom as well ? Like while using the HTC Rom Tool , in the SPL section ???
Second question, where can I find the radio.....nb ?
Thanks for your help, I appreciate that.
As I said set the ROM tool to Kaiser then change the Model ID to POLA***** and use as normal to create the nbh image.
As for Hard SPL... once you´ve flashed it that´s that, no need to flash it every time you change ROMs or radio...
id love to see the guide for polaris aswell.
and oem packages as well.
i did everything as it was sowen in kaiser guide, but i got an error on building system. have no idea why..
was saying that something is missing or path is icorrect smth like that
post here exact errr.U got.
here is htcrt.ini for polaris (only Polaris Option is active) simply rewrite htcrt.ini in folder with htcrt.EXE
It's not necessary to include Radio ROM when building? Right?
nope, its up 2 U what 2 include (SPL/Radio/OS/Splash)

Thanks for the guidance. The tutorial is great but fails to mention specifics if you are not cooking a Kaiser Rom. For example, does the baserom have to come from a shipped Rom? I was using the 3.02 Kaiser Rom as my baserom. Can you do that when cooking a Polaris rom? How do I get the RUU_signed.nbh out of any other Rom. I thought about using the WM6.1 19716 Rom but couldn't extract anything. (Probably stupid questions but cant find answers in the wiki). BTW, I was getting same errors about half-way through compiling process. If I try again today, I will record the errors and post. Again, thx for help.
sgreenwood99M me i have 19716 WM6.1 for cooking. U can Use some part of any ROM but U have to be sure exactly what. In general U can Use OEMpackages freely, but be aware with drivers, baseapps....(i have perfect CZECH 19199 WM6.1 but w/o working SMS)
Hi,
i've read through the Kaiser kitchen guide and it all seems to make sense however i'm not sure how much is relavent to the Polaris, for example the ingredients section talks about expanding the radio file and the rom files to folders, from the Kaiser files on rapidshare etc.
Do us Polaris users do these points too? or are there specific Polaris Radio and ROM files we use?
I have my base ROM file called RUU_signed.nbh and i've also managed to use pdocread to get the RAW files too, but just not sure where to go now?
All i want to do is remove a few cabs and add a few cabs and EXEs to my rom.
can anyone post comments on exactly which parts of the Kaiser kitchen guide need to be changed to use on a Polaris?
thanks.
dont need raw's. simply put *.NBH(polaris) to BaseRom folder. Run begin.cmd(or bat?) Choose option 1.
click......... then start cook.cmd(or bat)
Do we replace the KaiserCustomRUU and the BuildOS files with ones specific to Polaris? Thanks.
yes, take udK CustomRUU & replace kaiser one, u dont need to replace anything else(except htcrt.ini ||KAIS**** replace with POLA***). And of course Polaris' *nbh
Whenever I put a Polaris nbh in the BaseRom folder, the process gives me an error that it cannot find RUU_signed.nbh.

I know that these are boring questions and It may waste your time but forgive me I'm just a newbie .....
Just finished the 5th medicine year ,, so If you need my help in medicine I'll be here for you......
My device is Himalaya ( Qteck 2020 )...
please answer my questions in detailed fashion ....
the help files are html documents.
you can find it in the dump folder.
to cook a rom, you will need a kitchen or a decompiler
the registry settings are in the dump folder.
you can edit them by using the windows editor
It's a bit difficult
Thanx for replying ,,, but which kitchen or decomplier should I use ?!
what is a dump folder ?!
if someone can make a tutorial doc with sceen shots that helps me to Learn it will be surely appreciated......
but Even If I cook A new rom I need to add some cabs to it so how can I do that ?!!!
For a start, I think the Himalaya forum may have some helpful info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=243
This thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378987 has a link to the kitchens for the Himalaya.
thanx l3v5y
o.k. these are the kitchens but infact I'm not professional in using them in other words I need some on do demonistrate the steps to me ?
I need to create my own packages from the cab files I have ,,,, so plz can some one EXPLAIN it to me ?
by the way I think cooking roms or reprogramming is more difficult than studing Medicine ......
On the first point, I think trying things out is probably the fastest way to learn... Make small changes, see what happens, and then make bigger changes.
To create OEM packs, you need something like ervius' package tool. here
You need to load the cab file (press the button to do so), and then that will open "MSCEInf". In that program, you'll need to extract the files (It's a button on the top tool bar) to the default location, then close that program and follow the options through with the package creator.
Real progressing
o.k. let's say that I wanna use Avis 6.1 kitchen I'm downloading it but the problem is taht It comes with Chekhar's Rom ( 19199 ) but I wanna use PDAviet WM6.1 ( 19213 ) ?
So how can I replace the chekhar's rom ?
and how can I put the package in the rom ( just coping ) or by using a special too ?
and How can I delete some softs from the rom ?
Could you demonistrate an Example here with explanatory Pictures> I'm just a newbie

That doesn't apply well to the Himalaya, as there is a different ROM structure...

I'm sorry, but I have no idea about the details of Himalaya cooking... I can do Prophets, but not them...
I'd suggest asking in one of the Hima threads, or maybe a mod could move this?

I was hoping it would be beneficial and useful school
o.k.
no problem,,,, If any buddy can help me with avis kitchen how can I replace it's rom with the WM6.1 PDAviet ( 19213 ) and how can I put the package on it ??

If I could be more help, I would!
I think that kitchen may only be able to use that ROM... Try one of the other kitchens... You'll need to dump the ROM and then rebuild it...
My Brain is getting Fried
Plz at least , I need someone to help me to package my cabs...
I do have the Package Creator, I even Packaged a cab but the problem is I need to delete some files ,, such as help one and I need to replace / relocate some inks also when I'd packaged it I didn't find the resultant file although it was saying packaging completed successsfully.....
I've been reading the tutorial on wiki and some threads provided in the forum but, I did not understand anything although the manual method looks somehow easier than the automated method using the creator program but it takes a long time with someone impatient like me.....
what I need is an Example demonisterated thoroughly and precisely .
since I'm using the Quickmenu I had been sorting my softs into many folders , Multimedia , Utilities , readers , E-Books, etc but some of these softs are installed on my SD card because of shortage of Storage Memory ( Device one ). It's just a 30MB. So if there is any Expert in packaging issue to help me or and that's unfortionate I'm gonna give up the whole Idea of Cooking and baking....
Thanx brothers.

dump a rom and reconstruct it

hy all. i have a problem (wish): i want to install a clean rom ( i have it allready) and i want to customize it with the programs that i want to, and then, to save this rom (i supose that i have to dump it and reconstruct it) exactly with my settings/applications/etc. can i do that? if I can, how? thx alll.
When you customize your polaris on the device itself, it doesn't change the ROM on it. So dumping it will not give you a new ROM. You'll have to change the ROM on the desktop, and upload it afterwards. There are a lot of topics about ROM building.
ok. thx. i will go then to that topics. thx.
Yes but the problem is that all those posts are about porting a 6.1 rom from another device to polaris.
Now that we have a 6.1 rom how exactly do we cook it and flash it back?
Here's my problem: I have the PTG 6.1 rom, but I want to replace the CF2 with CF3.5 and replace TTN6 with TTN7, and flash it back.
I already have Kitchen 1.3, extracted the 'RUU_signed.nbh' and a dump of 03_OS.nb.payload.
Now, where do I go from here?. I want a rom that's exactly the same as the official one but with the changes I mentioned above.
I'm a complete noob at this cooking rom issue. I've read lots of threads but I've only gotten more confused about all the XIPs, SYSs, OEMs and stuff, and I think the same happens with other users.
I know that some of the actual cookers were once in the same place I'm now, so can someone point me out the rigth way and if possible post a detailed tutorial on how to extract, cook and flash back a rom on POLARIS, me and lots of users would apreciate it a LOT.
Second That Thought.
What would be nice to see (if possible) the following,
as an example:
1. Download Polaris ROM Kitchen v1.3
2. Extract to c:\Kitchen
3. Copy your ROM image (*.nbh) to X:\
4. Run command
...20. Install Package (M2D.cab) by doing the following ...
21. Recombine the ROM by doing the follow commands ...
22. Flash your ROM to your Polaris
23. Hard Reset and verify that the package you installed is in your ROM
Congrats
A step by step like that, which walks a user though the process of a demo ROM and a demo *.cab for learning would be FANTASTIC!!!
Thanks in advance to whoever can help us out!
Juxtyce
bump.
Any help from the professionals out there?
Look here:
1. .Net2.0 => .net3.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2685138&postcount=22
2. replace the ttn.cab file in the folder "\kitchen.work\Build\OEM\OEMAPPS" with the TomTom7 cab. If it don't have the same name, rename the new cab or edit the file 'config_AP.txt' in the same folder
hope it will help you I managed it this way.
P.S. I didn't change the XIP as mentioned in the given thread. See following posts
I will dump the wm6.1 rom for you guys, and provide you with a kitchen with some packages you can use.
I will do so for all available languages that is available with official wm6.1
But,that is gonna be quite time consuming, and I hope that you understand that I ask this in return:
Any small donation for the time I use on that will be of help.
I dont say that its required, not at all. I am not doing this for money.
But the number of hours I spend on this is getting pretty high.
I will do this project either you donate or not.
cheers
thank you a lot itje. can you make in romanian also?
dunno if it's the good topic to post but let's try.
I see many fantastic people cooking excellent roms (i wish i could do the same...), and, in those roms, a lot of softwares.
Isn't it possible to just have a rom with the bare minimum?
and seperate cabs to install what you want?
for example, manilla 2d is cool, but many people like spb mobile shell better, so it's wasted memory.
May be i'm just wrong, don't understanding how it all works, so plz explain to me !

There is a large choice of ROM's, some loaded with extra's, some very minimally equiped. There are so many that your favorite must be out there already. Just search for it.

[Release] [Kitchen] - SuperJustKitchen v0.7 - Shields up!

SuperJustKitchen v0.7 Released.
Go to my site: http://justkitchen.info to get the updates and the info. It takes to long to update every device's forum that is supported, and I plan to support all devices.
For more information on the kitchen, please read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4288668
Word of warning:
None of the new EXT's have been tested and fixed for the Herald, Opal, Hermes AND Artemis. Please test test and test and then let me know which packages don't work and what YOU've done to fix them. (I don't have time to fix ALL of them by myself.)
(I'm no longer updating each thread separately for each device but just updating my site and posting the release info here.)

Right now it has the following builds available to you:
21054 (wm6.1)
21864 (COM2 - old style gui - wm6.5)
23064 (COM4 - newer gui - wm6.5)
5.5 will only have 21054, 21864, and 23064 unless something new gets released.

Thanks for providing us a new kitchen for opal. Can u give me a tutorial on using this kitchen for opal. Full explaination plz
It works exactly the same as your other Ervius based kitchen. You can follow that tutorial as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4446173&postcount=3
The real difference is that I do the porting of new builds and the addition of new EXT packages for you.
(Granted, I've added more options under the Extra Buttons section, but you can go in there and figure out what most things are from their names and descriptions.)
Thanks BUT....
Thanks for your work man BUT: When i make my rom everything works Except the HOME settings and COMM manager,it is the same thing with BesFen kitchen,sometimes it works and then sometimes it does not.
I have tried and tried but nothing seems to help,i give up. I hope you guys can figure it out. Thanks.
What Home settings?
As far as the COMM Manager, don't choose the Comm manager in the EXT list. It's meant for older devices (like the Herald). Don't choose a Comm Manager at all. The OEM still has a comm manager built in. It will automatically insert a working comm manager.
Sorry i meant when you go to start/settings/Today does not work and i did not choose the comm manager, the one that comes with the oem does not work. Like i said sometimes they work and then it does not.

Weird... The Today works fine on the Herald and it's part of the SYS, not the OEM. Are adding or not adding the MyCPL?
So the Comm Manager, even the one that's made FOR the phone has problems?
No i left out MyCpl. What is that BTW. The same thing happens in BesFen kitchen but it works when you put the PP on 12,anything higher it will not work.But i tried it on 12 & 16 PP in your kitchen but it does not work at all.Also when using file explorer and when selecting a theme when Today is working i have to long press or hold down the stylus to select something.

So it happens with BesFen's kitchen as well? The Opal is so strange and different than the other devices when it comes to cooking, I wonder what other changes I must make to the kitchen to get it work properly. At the moment, without an Opal, I can only make a kitchen as good as BesFen can when it comes to proper NB creation. Does anyone have a current WORKING kitchen for the Opal that doesn't have these problems? If so, point me to it and I will study the differences.
As a side note: Doesn't the Opal use myCPL by default? If it does, then you MUST choose it.
If you know PhamQuang you can ask him what kitchen he uses,his roms are usually buggy but i think the last one he made was good and everything works smooth.
You can find more detailed info on the kitchen in the main thread.

Official Opal's ROM have MyCPL, it should be include in ROM.
The reason I made opal's kitchen because no one share working kitchen here, some one asked me to make kitchen for Opal.
PhamQuang is from PDAVIET, and as we all know they always don't want to share the kitchen and source. You can try to contact him, maybe they change their mind now.

Hey BesFen THANKS very much for making a kitchen for the Opal,I have made many roms with it and except for a few problems it works good.But i think you should try and get all the bugs and problems worked out so we don't have to rely or wait for PhamQuang or PDAVIET to get any roms.
Because of the problems i am using Opals original WM 6.1 until you guys can figure it out.

If your ROM can boot, it mean the kitchen work great.
The problem that you figure is not causes by the kitchen, it's pure something in the ext or OEM or SYS, try to read more reference from others device thread, I can't fix it since I don't have opal for test it, I am sorry about that.

Yea, if the Opal comes with the MyCPL and they don't choose it, then that's part of the problem.
I agree with you, though. Technically, the issue is not with the kitchen but with what you DO with the kitchen as a cook. Since I don't have an Opal either, I won't be able to look around and preemptively fix all the bugs by pre-packaging certain EXT's into the OEM.
I also appreciate you working on that Opal kitchen. It's what I used as an example to get the Opal compatibility on my own kitchen. I appreciate your advise about PDAVIET.
ob_izzy, now it's your turn to be a great cook. ^_^

Come on guys, what are you saying? Both of you are making a kitchen for a device that you don't have and can't test and you are saying it's not the kitchen! I beg to differ because believe me i have tried all sorts of ways to get the rom to work including reading alot, re-arranging files, adding, leaving out, different PP. Maybe it still has stuff to add or leave out that i don't know about, so that is where you guys come in. I need PLEH.

The kitchen only puts things together. What the stuff does depends on the OEM's and EXT's included. If you took all the EXT's that came with the official Opal ROM, you may not have any bugs because the manufacturer has worked out all those little bugs. If I had an Opal to play with, I'd probably find all the bugs myself and fix them (like I did with the Herald.) Unfortunately, we need the help of a very experienced Opal cook who HAS an Opal. (Or I need an Opal, which isn't happening since I have a G1 as my main phone and wouldn't buy an Opal to replace it (nothing wrong with the Opal, but I love android. )

You can make an experience, dump the official opal's ROM (ruusigned.nbh) with Visual kitchen from mine or ivanmmj, go to the official rom folder, there is a "dump" folder there with Ervius kitchen tools, then run that kitchen and build the rom, it will build ROM same as official that you dump. If it run well, no problem with the kitchen.

Great suggestion man. I tried it and it did build the 6.1 rom without problems but it builds 6.1 good but not 6.5. When it builds wm 6.5 there are problems.
