WM6.1 ROM WWE Version build 20270 Diamond stile for new gene

this is rom for new gene ie ht8xxxxx
nothing new just port xip sys for new gene
original rom
here is kitchen only work for new gene
part1 part2
extract all file in same folder
Thank you for the same. Just for the sake of curiosity, how much RAM is available free, on startup, in this ROM?
Hey Ankit, you did it yourself? have you found out the kitchen?
After reading the original thread, i guess there are many unsolved issues with this ROM. Calculator doesn't works, calender gives problem, powerpoint gives some certificate error, No java etc. And i think this also does not include Windows Live.
So i dont think its worth an upgrade. This ROM needs some serious tweaking before i can use it. I haven't installed this ROM but i got all this conclusion from the original thread. Is anybody's experience better with this ROM?

because my exam is there i not be able to Cook rom
can u post some screen shots plzzz..if u hav any
thnx
@ankit360: I would really appreciate it buddy if you share with me the details of the process of XIP porting you gone through. I want to learn the whole process as its quiet an important information to cook a ROM successfully. After knowing all this, i would be able to create ROMs and share them with our friends here.
Its really great man! you learned the process so quickly. Hats off to you!
Hey Ankit,
I tried this ROM. Its clean and ultra fast and very little problems. I am sure if they are ironed out, this could be an ultimate ROM for Gene. i have written about the problems in my previous post. In addition to those here is another one.
I tried installing windows live on this rom too but it didn't worked. Since this is a quiet clean ROM with no Windows Live in ROM, there is no possibility of any conflict. I think the problem is related to some certificates.
I examined my original WM 6 ROM and found that All the ROMs in this forum contains all the other certificates except these two from HTC on the top of the list, see the attached files.
I think this could be the cause of all the Windows Live problems as may be since these certificates are not present, windows live is unable to communicate with the server over an encrypted ssl connection.
What do you think?
I will try to extract these out of the ROM. You try yourself too and PM me if there is any success.
can u list out all bug so i will try to fix it
Just trying out your ROM, its lightning fast!
Thanks for the ROM
60 MB free after restoration of around 300 contacts! Wow, Gr8 Word
@ankit360: OK, here is the list of bugs:
1. Calculator is not working. Reports a missing file "\windows\spbcalc_p.gif".
2. Calender not working.
3. Java runtime is not included (if you correct this error and insert a java runtime, use the latest JBed version, it is the only runtime that can run opera mini fullscreen)
4. Powerpoint shortcut not working. It needs a change in registry. If you click the shortcut it will say some certificate thing but thats not true. The shortcut points to the shortname :MSPOWERPINT. These shortnames are created in registry and the path to powerpoint exe is not correctly given there. either correcting the path in registry or making the shortcut directly point to the powerpoint executable will correct this error.
5. Small bug but there is no option to set the device lock (password when the phone is restarted)
6. No Transcriber (Not really a bug but i need it)
7. Clock canot be set to 12 hour format. it always returns to 24 hour format.
8. Search feature that comes with default windows mobile has been removed.
9. Tabs in HTC home show up even when they are removed from settings>today>htc home setting. It happens sometimes only i think.
10. Windows Live not working at all even after installing the official cab. I tried about 10 cabs from this forum. Nothing worked. It confirms that the issue is not due to conflict with older version of live on ROM coz this ROM doesn't have windows live on it.
Thats all i can think of right now. Will post more if i find some.
man i don't have time to fix this issue bcoz my exam is there
i make kitchen for this rom work only for new gene
try to fix bug and release some nice rom
happy rom cooking
part1 part2
extract all file in same folder
Hey ankit,
I have succeeded in porting the XIP of the default kitchen given by Ramersonw by using my original Wm 6 XIP as base. I have created a ROM based on that kitchen which i will post tomorrow as i am currently uploading both of these.
The kitchen is working perfectly for new GENE and i am 90% sure that i'll be able to port most of the ROMs using this kitchen. Will post kitchen on the Ramersonw's thread also.
that's grate news plz post only xip or changes u made is default kitchens i will not able to download whole because i don;t have enough bandwidth
Hi Ankit,
I am uploading the zip file with changes only. Here is the link for it. And dont forget to read the Readme.txt i have included in it. I am also uploading the ROM i created. Wait for the new ROM thread. Here is the address for the zip file:
http://cid-988261b694475a67.skydriv...gesOnly|_for|_NewGene|_Kitchen|_Ramersonw.zip
thanks for sharing file i will test it
i want to know is ur xip porting procedure is work on different gene rom ?
my xip port procedure work on only this rom
My XIP will work on any ROM which has the same version of WM 6.1. Actually buddy, as you might already know, what happens is that XIP contains a portion of the main files of the WIndows Mobile operating system which are executed without loading into main ram. That is why this part is called XIP (eXecute In Place). So These files have to be the exact same version as the rest of the OS. My XIP is from CE OS 5.2.20931 (Build 20931.1.5.0) so all the ROMs that use this version of WM 6.1 can use this XIP as base.
And this is true for your ROM too. You can use the XIP with any ROM with same version and build no.
I hope i have made myself clear but feel free to ask more.
thanks for info man i really don't known this
Sorry for bumping this.
I have installed this ROM, And I really liked this. It has fastest responce times, and the most Available RAM, from all the ROM's for Gene(More than 25% using even after 2 Hrs of use.)
So Ankit or Sumit, if you have time, will you please modify this rom (I still need to learn cooking.)
Download Java - JBed
Attached the spbcalc_p.gif. Placing it in windows dir, works.
Thanks
Sumit
brother Sumit / Ankit: Please cook and release for Old Gene also.

It will involve a lot of reading, i believe Dutty provides a kitchen in his roms so thats a start.
heres a great starter, lots of info about the kitchen structure in post 1, great starter guide in post 2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=628948
There's a lot involved when it comes to building a fast, stable, well-working ROM.
To get you started, I would recommend you download Ervius's Visual Kitchen based on Bepe's latest tools from HERE.
Second, download the latest stock ROM for your specific device. Mine is the T-Mobile HD2 so the stock ROM for that was where I started.
Extract the RUU_LEO_......exe using WinRAR. It can be found HERE. The free version will serve you well. Now open the Kitchen executable and use the option on the left to "extract" or dump the stock ROM that you just extracted from the exe. This will create the Kitchen for you. Or rather.. It will create a solid base foundation in which you can begin your modifications.
Before you'll be able to re-cook the ROM however, you will have to "recmod" the NTFConfig.dll module in Notification Enhancement. Failure to do this will result in a non-booting ROM. Don't ask why... I just know that this has to be done.
Once you do all of this, rebuild the ROM as stock and flash it to your phone(YOU MUST HAVE HARDSPL FIRST!!!!). If all goes well and the ROM boots, runs, and works like you expect a stock ROM to work, then you're free to start making all the changes you want.
TIP>> NEVER delete any package just because you are now using an updated version. Always keep the original just in case something doesn't work and always remember, keep 2 save files. One that you know for a fact will work if you re-cook and one that you experiment with.
As you get more comfortable with cooking ROMS, then you'll be able to update the SYS/XIP components more easily and so I suggest you stay away from that right off the get go. Get a good solid ROM first then play with those "extras".
One last thing - Familiarize yourself with the initflashfiles.dat file(open it with notepad) located in \OEM\"Device name"\0409\OEM_Lang_0409(I used 0409 as an example as this is WWE - you can use whatever language you like). This file controls all files and directories. Trust me, if you don't understand what I mean by that then open the file and you will.
If you have any other questions I'm sure there are many other chefs here who can offer you help and assistance.
Finally, be persistent! Don't let a buggy or non-booting ROM get you down. It can always be fixed! Just have confidence in your "techy side" and have patience. Know that the more you do it, the better at it you will get.
Good luck and happy building!!!

Newbie wants to start making my own custom roms.

Im want to start making my own custom roms just need a jump start from people who knows how to do it, any programs out there that you can add/remove apps from original vibrant rom and creat your own rom?
i have a windows 7 64 box and ubuntu.
thank you
I have no real experience with creating a ROM, however, if you are serious about learning how to create a ROM and/or customizing the Android system, you should first and foremost go here:
http://developer.android.com/index.html
It will contain all the information and files you will need to get started. Hope this helps.
I have the SDK installed but i heard something about Android Kitchen on Ubuntu cant find anything useful on it on google.
I would start smaller by building themes or apps to get more familiar with building with android before jumping in elbows deep...

HD2 ROM finished?

HD2 new rom finished? Any new ROM will build?
Window Mobile is no longer being worked on.
If you are a keen user of this OS I would just install one of the great custom WM ROMs & just enjoy it while you have hardware to support it.
Hopefully given time Windows Phone or Android will get down to making serious user innovation of a OS rather than usual hassle with minimal configuration, lacking obvious simple functions & constant UI changes that benefit no one ...
Moved to proper forum.

[guide] [kitchen] [cygwin] setting up and modding your very own rom from base

Hey everybody thanks for coming to this guide. Feel free to ask questions in case you don't get it. But let's get this straight, ok?
So some of you must be using a custom ROM. And if you're not a developer, you might be wandering that how did they make the ROM. If you want your OWN product without taking the long way, I have the solution right here.
For me it's almost impossible building up my OWN ROM from nothing like other devs did themselves, either. But i CAN make one from ANOTHER rom. Adjusting it a little, modding a bit there, fixing a LOT here... and ta-da! The Something-Based rom was born. The ultimate tool that you're going to need is the ANDROID KITCHEN.
The one and only kitchen that actually "cooks" Android. One note that this guide i'm doing is for Windows. If you can figure out how to use it with Linux or Mac please be a nice person and share it will you?
Ok, first thing you need is a base ROM(make sure it's the rom that works on the device you're trying to build the ROM for)(Can be CyanogenMod, AOKP, Resurrection Remix,...)
Then comes the other requirements/files:
-A stable internet connection
-Your Windows PC
-Cygwin Packages
-Kitchen
-Java JDK(either x86 or x64(depends on your PC)
So for a reminder, that before you kick off make sure that java jdk was installed. Just go through the setups and install it.
Now comes the GUIDE:

Sorry if it wasn't so detail. But if you miss anything I can make it up for you. Just simply report it back, OK?
Have Fun Modding!
Special Thanks
dsixda for the kitchen
Roman Ablivia for inspiring me to make the guide and presenting me to the kitchen
Farrell Tech Crew for fixing out my buggy video(no longer)
Laguire Sien Tiamat for supporting and helping me all the time
If you find this thread useful, don't forget to thanks or subscribe me. If you love my works and previous threads, donate me.(Still didn't figure out how you can)

/home/Lalit & kumar (whatever the name is ) has spaces try something like this /home/lalit&kumar as the kitchens functionality depends on the correct naming of the files as well
