Before you read on (since this is getting so much attention) please take your time to support our felow member ITXDA and his family
And also take some time to think about helping XDA out a bit in the Cost of Server Traffic.
I had to Hijack the thread thread as aaronsmckees been off for a few days and it's been pretty busy and the first post needed to be Updated because of it.
So Thanks for Aaronsmckees for asking the Question
"Can We Get This On Our Devices"
& UDK >> ERVIUS >> herg62123 >> P1Tater >> Laurentius26 >> VetVito >> Noonski >> GULLUM >> Fultoptop >> AlltheWay >> Twolf, and many many more, if your name's not up here Thanks to you to.
And also Stephen Murray for getting a tremendous amount of attention.
And A personal thanks to Ababrekar and the rest of the SPC crew for Testing and support.
I will take a break for the next 4 days.
version 0.07 is up now.

I can't wait. Somebody will have something similar, if not the exact same thing in a matter of days.
Just for curiousity's sake... how hard would it be to extract the package from his rom to put into a kaiser rom? Sounds like something I would be willing to do to my tilt if nobody can find a better way.

It can be done if you can read the OS.nb. For some reason I keep getting errors.

Hey guys,
dumped os.nb from the rom,
upload is running and approx. finish in 10 minutes.
Would love to see that on my kaiser.
Maybe it can be dumped with polaris kitchen

Doesn't work a few have already tried that and e few other methods.
At this moment What we need is a dump of the user.hv and default.hv as the available Dump of course has no RGU files thanks to Bepe's Kitchen
[Edit I found out later that i overlooked the hive files in L26 Dump from hism Polaris]

Dudes... why dont we just ask UDK to give us the OEM Package? I mean... he surely did some hard work... but xda-dev is about sharing, isnt it ?

Polaris chef's corner (POLA100)

As reg66 said the other day we are a few people cooking ROMs for the Polaris but there is not such a chef corner in the polaris forum. So I propose this thread to exchange techniques, tools, etc.
Anyway I will use this thread as my own cooking repository and share as I learn myself. Feel free to contribute but please keep the posts ontopic. Most of it will be about cooking with 6.1 kernel for QVGA devices.
this 1st post is updated with the relevant information up to post 39 (take me there)
the 2nd post is about non solved specific questions in case one cooker can help another 5 (take me there)
Radios:
Please feel free to report radios tested to run on the Polaris (or links to compendiums)
Which radio to use? depends on the drivers you use...
Kitchens:
Please feel free to report kitchens and sys tested to run on the Polaris (or links to compendiums). Kitchens available are basically three: Ervius Visual Kitchen, Ondraster kitchen (two versions: old and new UI) and traditional kitchens (simply cmd scripts and exe tools, maybe someone wants to share a polaris non visual kitchen). Most of the kitchens come with mega packages, some others come naked or with leo packages. Choose the one that best suits you.
Gullum EVK's Kitchen wm6.5 23016. My first kitchen, I love it. Mega based
Amenatis EVK's Kitchen wm6.5 21891/28008 040C and almost 0409 Very refined kitchen, not only cabs and packages but a very well implemented OEM and Registry. Leo Based
osKitchen NEW UI v1.25 - Easy Visual Kitchen I tested and has easy startup tweaks and splash integration and very good description of packates.
TranMinhMan EVK's Kitchen WM6.5 with MANILA 2.0 at PDAVIET Requires registration. File password: TranMinhMan. See post 7 for direct links to the 3 parts of the file
TomAngel Ondraster's Kitchen wm6.5 builds 23088, 23518, 28008 and 28205 Includes both 6.1 and 6.5 kernel and is Multilanguage (check the thread also to learn how to use the wm6.5 kernel and seems to be working. It works nicely in my ROMs that seem to work better (as if it had a higher PP). There is not consensus on the performance improvement however. The main advantage is to avoid recmoding, since performance it is not so much affected and depends more on drivers. I personally believe recmodded apps open slower but there is no big science behind this thought. Check TomAngel's post for details).
niax kitchen wm6.5.X (by Nikkito) Spanish kitchen at htcmania.com forum - the forum is in spanish, look for a mediafire link in the first post - does not require registration to access the kitchen.
vistang's kitchen (did not manage myself)
Cooking takes lots of time. Be sure you backup your kitchen whenever you have consolidated a bunch of improvements. Sometimes files may get corrupted or if you change many things at a time, it may be difficult to go back to previous situation and also to fix the errors. Therefore, even if it is a pain, I recommned to zip the whole kitchen from time to time.
Another good practice is to keep a second folder with your kitchen tools, in case you have to restore the whole kitchen from scratch.
Kitchen Tools and Scripts:
I have the pleasure to introduce my collection of tools, ready to use with Ervius Visual Kitchen (and I guess, easy to adapt for other kitchens). Please check this post
Batch Recmoding (please donate to xtep): With this tool you can recmod automatically only the modules you want to, since recmodding everything will deliver a slower/bigger ROM (working on windows vista, includes instructions on how to use)
Tools for importing SYS into VK and auto recmod (please donate to xtep)
Dump sorter for the rollup´s of eg Da_G new releases thread
Create a custom splashscreen (steps 1 to 4) and add it manually (rest of steps)...or...automatically when generating the ROM
Pagepool changer (external, do not know if it is the one used in EVK)
Edit hv files
NBHextract (by pof): Extract contents from NBH files
Itsme amazing tools There is a wiki explaining it. Here in this post you will find some hints on how to use
Kitchen tools collection at mobileunderground (requires registration) Apps that can be downloaded (I will delete the reference of those taken from xda as I replace by links):
Sqeezer (Compress .exe files to save space and speed up programs) / rgu-2-xml (Converts .rgu to .xml to create provxml files) / reshack (open .dll and .exe files to replace icons) / OEM version checker (check the version of your oems in kitchen on in device) / SYS version (find the sys version of your sys packages) / ThemeGenCE (use to create 6.1 themes, may work for 6.5 too -- not sure) / Manila Editor (Edit Manila Files) / CFC - (Chainfire's Manila tool to compress, decompress, and edit manila files) / MakeCAB (Window's free tool to make cab files) / NBH Tool - Dutty's tool for convertint to,from .nb,.nbh /
Dump Sorter - tehpenguin's tool for sorting and cleaning packages / Msigner - For signing your modified .dlls / ROM Editor - For dumping ROMs
SuperRecMod - JooJooBee666's tool for converting modules to files / Bepe's xidump attached -- info here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572673 / Alexx~'s tools to extract dio file attached / WinDiff - Compare 2 files or directories to find the differences (great for comparing reg files) / WinMerge - Compare 2 files or directories to find the differences (great for comparing reg files) / cab converter / createloc - It create the local language tree when you using the VisualKitchen.
Reviews of several kitchen tools (hilarieg's sticky at chef central) For each app you'll find download link, explanation and reference links. Apps reviewed so far (4 april 2010):
Device Side Manifest (.DSM) Editors (BuildDSM / DSM Analyzer / DSM Builder / DSM Dependency Dumper / DSM Editor)
Some Da_G reading about dependencies, certificates and shadow packages
Editors (EditPad / XML Notepad)
Graphics (.BMP, .JPG, .PNG, etc.) (IcoFX)
Process, Registry (FDC Task Manager / Registry Workshop)
Resource (.DLL, .EXE, etc.) ( Dependency Walker / Resource Hacker)
Search/Comparison/File Managers (Beyond Compare / Compare It / Directory Opus)
WM6.5 ROMs:
1. Flash SPL: This great tool basically makes safe to flash Custom Roms. Additionally, procedures are well known and available to restore original SPL and ROM in case you need to send your device to a technical service without loosing guaranty.
2. Flash Original ROM (recommended by most chefs, mandatory if you observe inestability issues when flashing a custom ROM
3. Install your favourite custom ROM (most chefs recommend hard reset after flashing)- Some people recommend to removed sd card. I have long been doing the opposite flashing from the SD Card.
Please feel free to report ROM's links or compendium of ROM Links. The only requirement is to add a description of the basic attributes (preferably by the author of the ROM). ROMs do not include radio unless specified, follow the link to see the author's original thread.

Please, post your reference wm6.5 ROM in other languages
You are an end user? Which rom is the best? This depends on your needs. There is some posts about user experiences in this thread and of course on the ROM threads themselves. My advice is to try a few ones, several days each. Then you will have no doubt and that won't kill your device (I did not dare at the beginning but I have flashed my device ... quite a few times...)
You are a cooker and want to be? Do not invent the wheel. Liason with the cooker that is working in the line you like and ask him what you want to do and what is the best starting point. You will be surprised how helpful people can be.

PPCKitchen sources can not be used directly. A script is needed to change fileattributes automatically, since ppckitchen handles files in a different way.
Do not overload your kitchen with lots of releases since the cooking time grows a lot.
SYS Fixes (sticky in chef central)
We use wm6.1 kernel which means it has a limit on the number of modules it can cope with. If you do not get a bootable Rom then recmod some more modules. No consensus on which ones, how many or in which slot. As pcarvalho says, it does not matter if it does the job.
How to update your kitchen to the latest builds?
Does your kitchen suffer S.O.D.? My experience is that is not a kitchen or sys problem, it has to do with oem/ext htc packages (specially htc notifications and volume control) or start menu cooking. However, other people are reporting other reasons such as the tools used to cook or corrupted modules.
Sys description
Best explanation I can give is:
COM1- Builds 217**:
COM2 - Builds 218**: GUI is 1st stage of finger friendly features implemented. This is the only official WM6.5 released to public. All other COM* Builds are leaked test builds (not even classified as alpha or beta). In this range, the GUI introduces softer corners to various dialogs, the new start menu (Very early builds had a honeycomb theme but although the hexagons have been removed, the icon alignments remain), and the taskbar and menubar have been slightly modified to allow for further skinning.
COM3 - Builds 230**: GUI from 23001 to 23021 looks the same as COM2. 23022+ introduced the new shorter/expanding taskbar and finger friendly text-based buttons on taller bottom menubar and ever since its been called wm6.5.1 rather than 6.5..
23047+ introduced icon-based buttons.. New checkboxes and scroll bars and recently (from 23069 i think) a magnifier in the taskbar are amongst the newer gui elements introduced in the latest builds..
At some point (im not sure when, kinetic scrolling was introduced..
It appears that COM4 elements are being introduced into this branch such as the new contact application, a slightly modified sms application, and possibly a slightly modified calender application..
COM4 - Builds 234**: Seems to have stopped at 23420. The newer contact application and possibly the modified sms and calender applications were first introduced in this branch but have since been incoorperated into latest builds of COM3
COM5 - Builds 235**: At the moment little is known of this branch. 23502 is the first build leaked that Im aware of. It seems to have been compiled at about the same time as 23060 but with superior stability, speed, memory management, Newer COM3 builds 23071 and above have been reported to be superior in terms of stability and speed. However the latest COM5 23506 compared to COM3 23088 (build date is identical) seem equally fast and stable. COM5 builds have the new Contact app and Magnifier, as in latest COM3 Builds, but lack kinetic scrolling.
Apparently, the new internet explorer has been modified as well (but Bikertibi Builds have the old internet explorer from wm6.1 because new one does not handle well on our device)
Other branches you might or might not come to see:
AKU1 - Builds 212**
SAM1 - Builds 215**
MD1 - Builds 219**
WMD - Builds 28***: The First Build leaked is 28002 (build date 17th November 2009). As of this branch Windows Mobile is at WM6.5.3. This branch is to continue from COM3 23090 and is believed to carry improvements to the New Internet Explorer Mobile as well as overall speed
Builds 216**: leaked builds that have been played with by the team over at HTC but not officially used on any handset as yet
Builds 236**: Recently came across these builds but have no further info on them

Here I reserve a space to post apps that are optimized for SD install.
There are three ways of doing it:
1. Use mortscript to install on the SD Card. Sashimi great tool does so. In the mortscript source compendium you can also find a script that does it more manually (may fail on some devices/cabs). I never have time to "steal" the code from sashimi's. It is as simple as leaving the cab file in a certain folder. the drawback is sashimi's is kinda slow to launch because it does a LOT of things. btw, great tool to backup emails, wifi and so on.
2. Use sktools: it lets you move files (including dll) to the sd card and is able to create a cab version that saves the installation configuration (sd installation, registry changes, dll moved, etc). Very easy but cabs created can not be opened by all other cab editing apps.
3. Use Wince cab manager. It is more tedious.
At the end I will post here some of these files/links for everybody to enjoy

Using mortscript to cook provxml files with shortcuts and icons
There are several ways to customize the ROM:
1- RunCC: nice looking, can not be interrupted (if so is like a hard reset). Sometimes is tricky while cooking.
2- XDA_UC: mortscript based, has full support for tradicional UC config files (no need to install SDconfig). Can run in combination with RunCC or standalone. Has lots of functionalities for the cooker to create shortcuts, load regkeys, etc. but also for the ROM user (install cabs, xml or reg files, etc while you are using the ppc).
3- SDConfig: You can change bmp displayed as the customization takes place. Can be aborted.
I use 1+2 combined. I basically use XDA_UC to do the customization and control the Radio after first boot and I use RunCC to ensure the customization is not aborted.

In this second post I will try to gather direct questions on how to do something specific. It can not be something like how do I install wm6.5 on my wm6,1 device or how can I cook a ROM. Answers should not be I have read that or that but rather I do it this way and it works. Let me put some examples:
- How can I make top bar / softkeybar transparent with wm6.5 (I am not talking about a top bar simulating the wallpaper, but a transparent one)
- How can I sync time automatically first time radio is connected without wifi or activesync? There are many apps out there that sync time through a data connection but can it be done automatically with cell tower information or gps?
- I have to blips (short sounds) when the welcome screen pops up. How can I avoid the second blip?
- How you cook the connectionsetup ? can the files be in sd card and tell connectionsetup with the corresponding reg key?
- Where and how are bt profiles stored?
- Can I use roms from other devices? and other devices can use polaris roms?
- How can I associate apps with file explorer and resco explorer (eg. txt file with notepad, mscr with notepad, etc).
- How can I bachup and restore my bt pairings (with xml or reg)
- Which splash tool to use so I do not get a black band in the bottom, where the red letters appear?

Where are those files suposed to be so I can check? I am not familiar since I have been using for a long time Jetware BT extension and it works great with my Parrot. It is great if you have thousands of records and many categories since you can tell which categories to sync so it does not take a long time. I always include it in my roms and its open code.

I checked your german's rom posts. In case it helps, I have BTBPP, BTSAP and BTFTP as EXT modules and they seem to work. However I have them disabled since my BT connects to the carkit without any popus (only 1st time when building the association). In bt profiles (settings) I jave a2dp, hsp, hpf 1.5 (hands free profile), pan, hid, opp, bpp, avrcp, pbab (phonebool access profile), spp, sdap profiles.

Some hints:
1. You can compress some EXE-files in the Kitchen with UPX
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6466637&postcount=15
I compressed i.e.:
AudioManager_Eng.exe
Camera.exe
CommManager.exe
HTCAlbum.exe
HTCPhotoPicker.exe
opera-wince5-armv4i.dll and Opera10-armv4i.exe
ppt.exe
pword.exe
pxl.exe
2. use older browsres.192.dll from WM 6.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6466637&postcount=15
3. Using older Office-version 2007 (for me more handy concerning text selection and smaller)
4. Delete Pictures & Wallpapers you are not using
Exchange some png with lighter versions pictures (OEM & SYS)
if you don't know how to edit the associated scripts,...
welcomehead.192.png
welcomehead.png
LEO_animated.gif
Grass.jpg
Leaf.jpg
Spring.jpg
Water.jpg
also the Classic-Theme png (deleted)
See also this great tip here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4504081&postcount=1
Another possibility is compressing all png-files (lossless!)
i.e. with PNGout
you gain a lot of space
5.Word mobile & WM6.5.X
For Pocket Word are these packages necessary:
-Riched20
-Webview
otherwise you get an Error when starting Word mobile (thanks for the hint to Akira99 !)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6470759&postcount=1276
Also I think the (new in comparison to WM6.5) SYS-package "System fonts" are necessary
6. Modify
initflashfiles.dat
config.txt
7. MSXIPKernel
Deleting
Hd.dll (for M$ debug)
Mencfilt.dl (is for storage card encryption)

Problem with cooking WM6.5 23XXX using osKitchen

Hello XDA-Members,
I'm kinda noob in cooking roms .
I have a problem with cooking a COM5 WM6.5 rom for blackstone. and I'm using osKitchen. hope someone can help .
I have downloaded WM6550-23563-Rollup-All-Pkgs.rar before and configured the kitchen as described in it's thread's How to use section:
1. On the osKitchen import wizard I used shipped BlackStone WM6.1 rom.
2. Then it said device requires some changes in order to work... and I answered Yes to this question.
3. I imported the Windows Mobile build and set the SYS Build. then it asked about automatic Module to File conversion. since I have WM6.5 Native kernel and it supports modules I answered No.
4. Selected 0409 in Localization Settings and checked Automatically disable unneeded/incompatible localized SYS packages...
5. Used LZX compression
6. Selected Essential packages in SYS Packages tab and RecModded Browsing, BrowsingCore and Browsing IE.
7. And finally on the Advanced Tweaks tab I used the WM6.5 Native kernel for BlackStone (found it in BlackStone ROM development section posted by Da_G) and Built the ROM. (also tried both normal and IMGFSToNB / ImplantXIP building method)
The problem is that when I flash this ROM, it wont pass smart mobility screen. however the 3 red R G D numbers appear. (I already installed HSPL 1.59 on my BlackStone and using native WM6.5 kernel on my rom)
Please help me with this to have a working WM6.5 rom .
Thanks in Advance.

@3 you should have answered yes... @7 You dont have to select anything... You have 6.5 Native... as you mentioned in 3. So no need to select custom XIP... i don't!
In OsKitchen Zero, if you import a shipped or stock rom,Port to newer SYS, and do what's suggested... and without any tweaks or whatever... build the ROM and flash, it should work and startup...

One crucial thing i learned in building ROM is - take baby steps, dont make many changes once: ie: straight update sys bulds etc.
make 1 significant change, compile, flash. If it boots, continue to next step. Tweaks can wait - get a your kitchen working and all the start menu stuffs ironed out before adding/updating to newer builds. IMHO, this is how we newbies should start.
If you are straight starting to learn cooking with 23xxx builds, its difficult. Start with 21xxx, trust me, once you are happy with your 21xxx build, you fill find building 23xxx is easier with knowledge you picked up with your earlier builds.

When the Kitchen ask you of you want to recmode some modules, click "yes"
It doesnt recmod all of them but only some that could make trouble as in your case..anyway:
Recmod :
Audiomanager or Audiobooster , i dont remember since im dont in front of my home PC.
Notification Enhancement.
If you dont recmod these 2 folders your phone wont boot.

If you are using the 23563 rollup package, omit the xip.bin included in the package. Do not forget to recmod Audio Booster, Concurrence Manager, Notification Enhancement; otherwise your ROM wont boot. Say YES after you dump the stock ROM, so you dont need to worry about forgetting to recmod later.
Hope this helps.
