hiho,
i made an easy to use romcooking tool (i use it for moding my favorit roms )
its still alpha but if someone like to test it. ON YOUR OWN RISK !!!
because its written in C# and you can easyliy work with diffrent roms @ same time
just select an *nbf and this tool dumps it into a folder beside this file
i.e. no need for winhex(initflashfiles.dat) and default.rgu are save in the correct format automaticly
for simply add/remove files and/or regtweaks everthing is included
the scripts based on Molski's kitchen updated with bigstorage imagetools
the main app is the neokit.exe
have fun
inteks
you like it ? let me know ;-) --->>> DONATE
update version a087:
http://rapidshare.com/files/139239824/NeoKitSetup_A087RC4_.msi.html
PKGTool.exe isnt needed anymore "refreshPackageInfos" works much faster now
Setup is fixed , you dont need to uninstall old vers of NeoKit before installing the new one (after this version!!)
update version a084:
http://rapidshare.com/files/138975571/NeoKitSetup_A084RC3_.msi.html

update version a080:
the buid process is more automated now
the new build nbf file is copied together with RUU into "ROMDUMP\UpdateFiles"
G'Reloc is back
it has a setup now
a 'small' UC Config tool is included (path is fixed to \Storage Card\Cabs)
on the UC Config tab the files in "\Storage Card\Cabs" are listed (if you prophet is connected)
you can check which ones to install. sdconfig.txt is written directly to your storagecard.
you can also clear the autorun flag in registry and run checkautorun.exe directly to test your setup.
have fun
inteks
ps:
ist finally fixed that neokit can run from "long" pathnames. it can now run from i.e. "c:\program files\.... .....\neokit"
the setup will add the filetyp ".nbf" to registry. you can edit rom bei dubbleclick now ;-)
update version a070:
ok. beside some other fixes and optimations the most interesting new feature is the "comparer" button on the 'Files' tab!
you can select an other rom and neotab hides all files included in both roms!!!
in other words.
select a "reference" rom i.e. micro V3 as smallest but working rom and neokit hides all files that are "needed" !!!
you can edit/remove the files that are not really needed ;-)
update version a061:
Fileinfos(comments) are included in fulltextsearch now ;-)
update version a060:
1. i removed package import because it dont work as it should !! i dont dont why. . .
2. i fixed many bugs and put proper errorhandling in most functions.
update version a050:
biggest new feature is automated dumping and building of extension.rom
on the filestab you can select "remove" OR "moveto extRom"
if you move *.dll to extrom, then neokit ask you to include extRom in SystemPath! ;-)
update version a035:
added a treeview for packages
update version a034:
fixed a bug when option.xml is not unicode.
and i've added a ceipui.exe for WM6.1
if you remove this file you get an error messsage on boot. so i compiled a replacement that does absolutly nothing
update version a033:
added a fulltextsearch on the "files" tab ;-)
update version a032:
fixed some bugs when importing OEM Packs. pls copy the exefile into neokit folder.
update version a030:
add's OEM packeage import support
update version a021:
this is an hotfix only! pls replace the neokit.exe from version a020!!!
this version brings a big new feature ->
neokit creates a folder in its apppath called Fileinfo
on the filetab in the contextmenu you can "add comments" for everyfile
this comments saved as Filename+txt AND they are shown as tooltip AND they are on every dump you work on AND they are shareable !!!
I.E. -> if you know a file cant be removed because your neo dont boot without that file, add comment and share your comments here ;-)
update version a020:
new pic preview with thumbs
on the fly UPX compresion
removing with contextmenu now to prevent removing by mistake / removed items are red
screen -> http://m8z.de/screen.a020.PNG
update version a010:
ok. here is a new version with some really nize features ;-)
->winimage is included and there is a new button to edit extrom
->reshacker is included, on the fileTab in contextmenu you can open every file directly with reshacker !!!
if you edit resources with reshacker click "save" in reshacker then close reshacker.
neokit will "wait" till you exit reshacker and then it moves the *_original.* file to "ReshackerBackups" .
i also added "reversmode.exe" to edit the resources of "moduls" BUT NOT ALL DLL/EXE WORK AFTER CONVERSION MODUL->DLL->MODUL
if such a Modul not work try using the DLL file instead.
btw. its a multipart rar renamed to .zip
update version a006:
found and fixed this bug:
"Could not open input file '80040000-OS.nb'. Aborting."
it occurs on "long" filenames in path to nk.nbf. sorry for the circumstances
update version a005:
if you use an extendedRom you can put your tools into the extrom folder. on the initflashfiles tab click createstartmenuentry to create a linkfile to your tool
neokit reads the name of your "should be unlocked" extrom out of default.rgu ;-)
sample:
i put my neotab.exe in my extrom called "xFlash"
then neokit create a linkfile like 20#"\xFlash\neotab.exe" and an entry like Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-File("neotab","\Windows\neotab")
(you still have to build and translate the extension.nb for yourself !!!)
some bugfixes
update version a004:
runtimeerror on filestab fixed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=66063&d=1200406481
update version a003:
-"search" now search over default.rgu+user.rgu
-you can filter out packages in the filestab
-a new button to recreate packageinfos (if you copy the content of an OEM package to the dump dir)
-a contextmenu on filestab to edit i.e. bitmaps (it open the standart edit progy for that file)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=65915&d=1200321831
EDIT:

you can manually add file to the dump directory BUT
since bigstorage is possible it doesnt make sense to ADD files then to REMOVE files !!!
everything in ROM cant be deinstalled later !!!!!!
i for myself do the following -> i remove files, flash, if it doesnt work i put them back and try again ;-)
Okay this looks brilliant.
I've got as far as dumping a rom, building it.
When I come to the nb2nbf dialog box I get stuck. I have no idea what values to enter in the boxes! Please help, thanks.
I saved this from another thread, if this is what you need:
ModelID - PM300
Lang - WWE
OEM v. - any
operator v. - any
CID- clear
StartAddres - 80040000
ImageName - OS

Thanks. If I don't include anything for the Extension rom, is that just wasted space on the device? Can I build a rom with no Extension?

i use korands 2.5 superclean as base rom and i removed sql mobile and wmplayer app and the kamera app (coolcamera works great and is only 52kb )
i am near 70mb on a G4 neo ;-)
i just want to make some minor adjustments in the korand 2.5 rom. it is already bigstorage.
is there anything i need to pay attention to?
and how can i modify/delete/add any registry key before i create the new rom?

PROPHET DIAMOND
===== Core 5.2.20226 Build 20226.1.3.0 Clean and UC =====
Base on Sonblack ROM (PDAViet) and a bit of modification:
- CE OS 5.2.20226 Build 20226.1.3.0 PV
- .NET Compact Framework 2.0.7045.0
- HTC Home
- Office Mobile 6.1
- Office Note
- Windows Media Player 10.3 Build 19214
- HTC Sim Manager for Pocket PC v6.47
- WM5torage v1.8 by V. Bozhko
- Esmertec Java Build ID: 20080222.3.1
- Mode SMS (change message display on PPC)
- Network Wizard for PocketPC v1.0 (Build 29982.1.0.1.7) (support Indonesian GSM for setting GPRS configuration)
- Added HTC Diamond Green (as seen in attachment)
Download link:
http://www.mediafire.com/?pogm4xzyimg
Fix: download link:
http://www.mediafire.com/?jotctzw0nej
Clean version 2:
1. Remove HTC Home
2. Remove onenote
3. Net compact framework v3.5
4. fixed calendar.lnk
Download link:
http://www.mediafire.com/?dg5nl9bimmm
The different between this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406074
is just about UC and HTC Home, right? Or anythings else.
HTC Home is exist on Sonblack ROM.
Added UC and cleaning some soft such as:
- AdvancedConfig
- ClearTemp
- Task Manager
- PIMBackup
- SynchroTime
- Total Commander
- WKTask
- BatteryStatus
Added HTC Diamond Green.tsk and modify operatorname for Indonesian GSM ops
Some of the soft can be installed on Extended_ROM (I installed Cloudyfa unhide ROM and now can see and even can install on those Extended_ROM)
The Storage Memory become 52MB plus 9.93MB Extended_ROM.
Disadvantage are; not as fast as Dioxda2 ROM and netcf still version 2 (can be upgrade to 3.5 also)
Actually the modif is for muy purpose, but I am sharing if somebody interested or want to remodif again.
Thank's to Sonblack (PDAViet) for the ROM
Upps:
Forget to notify that this base ROM is complete on term of setting from the beginning ops (Stylus operation, Time, Password, and email setting)
What is the difference between PDAViet version (Sonblack) and yours. I am already using Sonblack's rom. There is a problem with the Windows Live and Messenger in Sonblack's rom. You can't set "Sign in as" in Messenger. Also default camera application gives an error "Unable to enter the Picture Theme mode" when you try to use Picture Theme mode. Another bug is, there is a little black bar just above 2 on the keypad.
What did you remove or add to this rom? Did you repair any bugs?
Very fast rom indeed... I'am not sure if it's faster than 19214
Thanks for your contribution !!
As a matter of fact, I did tried this rom (Sinblack's 20226) from the very beginning......
its performance is a bit weired ( lag.... I felt that),
Is it very fast and stable now since you had cleaned it?
Yep,
Picture theme is missing and the little black bar just above 2 on the keypad still exist.
I install on Dopod 818Pro (G3), for speed, still below dioxda2 ROM, but for stability still okay (I put almost 50 additional softs)
Will inform you next morning (now is night in my City) and I am ready to go home.
Ps:
Could anybody help for solving 2 kind of bug mention above?

I was cleaning Windows Live in this ROM, for picture theme mode, you just need to copy this file (Birthday.gif, attached) on /My Documents/Templates folder.
Still working the other.
Do you want to use network wizard optimally?
Put new on the registry:
\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\RIL\OperatorNames
new key such as:
xxxyy and the value of the Brand of your GSM operator
where xxx is MCC and yy is MNC (Five digit number)
The operator code can be found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code
It will customize your GPRS setting (and may be more??)

I am using "[POWER_Button_FIX + U.C.] ~V.1b and V.1c ~ Very Fast WM6.1(19214-PV)...(No Hardspl ?)" 1c version now. It has the same Picture Theme problem.
The attachment you've sent is a jpg file and copying it to My Documents\Templates does not solve the problem. But... if you copy Birthday.gif (which is a system file and most probably it will be invisible as far as I know) from \Windows folder to \My Documents\Templates the problem will be solved.
Thanks for the advice...
p.s. You can also copy other .gif template pictures.

What do you mean?
You mean you can change the left and right side (below) with softkey?
I can change almost anything with softkey, but for opening program you should go to today screen left and right side below.
Or did you install any calendar soft such as thumbcal, because sometime it replace original calendar.
o if you try to configure softkey with calendar - it was not there.
if you try to copy calendar from \windows to \windows\start menue\programs it`s not possible.
i need on the left softkey calendar - like other roms.
all other thinks work perfekt
stupsi
Your calendar is on Start menu, Move to start program
1. Open Start, Settings, Personal, click Menu
2. Uncheck calendar there
3. Close (click OK)
Go to softkey, its there now.
Hi all,
This is my first Rom. I managed to create this after trial and a lot of error.
Tried a few cooking kitchens.
Finaly I managed to tweak and create one with Da_G's Kitchen
If you are reading this post Da_G, thnx for sharing the kitchen
My rom has a few minor flaws, this is because my noledge of cooking is not that big at this moment but I will learn how to, (possible with help of more experienced cook's) soon.
Ok, but what's in it. . . .

TomTom Black 915 9196 VGA (No Maps, and dont ask about it, you'll have to buy them)
And more. . . .
After installing you have to change the following to get the shortcuts of Tom Tom and Teeter into the right place:
Go to "/windows" there you fine the folders "start menu" and "startmenu"
Open "/windows/startmenu", then open the folder "programma's" and cut the folders inside "programma's" and past them into "/windows/start menu/ programs.
After that you can delete the folder "startmenu"
The Rom looks stable, I didn't had any problems with it after using it two days. And It's really fast.
Some screenshots will follow.
You can download it at: RapidShare
MD5: 48C128DAB1563E6C4D2F412429FD9E64
If someone can help me with tweaking the rom so the shortcuts will come into the right folder I will appreciate it.
Added some screenshots
good to see another chef in the kitchen
Welcome to the chef team, Nemesco Don't heshitate to PM any of us for tips or help
Hi Nemesco. Good on you for jumping into the kitchen!
How are you adding TomTom and Teeter into your ROM - are they included as cabs that run during the first boot, set up as separate OEM packages or included in the main bulk of the kitchen? Depending what the answer is depends on how we're going to sort it out.
If it's a cab, then we're going to have to edit the Shortcuts within the tab (using WinCE cab manager). Stick the cabs on Rapidshare and drop me the link and I'll change them for you.
If they're installed as separate OEM packages, then we'll need to amend the Initflashes.dat file within that OEM (probably). Again, I'm happy helping with that if you want.
If they're included in the main bulk of the kitchen, then it'll probably still be a Initflashes file that needs amending, but it could be harder to find it. Hopefully it'll be one of the last two options.
Good luck mate, and I'm happy to help if I can.
Thnx for your reply's and your offers to help a beginning chef.
@ NRGZ28, I'd send you a PM.
@ Confused Stu, Thnx, I managed to change the initflashfiles.txt with pathinfo.
Anybody installed the rom and have feedback?
2009-08-25 UPDATE: It has been brought to my attention that sending MMS does not work. Fix is written ... See attachments. Just extract the EXE from dj13241_MMS_Fix.zip, copy to device and run. No message will be displayed, but MMS should work. This fix should work for ANY carrier.
2009-08-17 UPDATE: MSVC_Announce_Fix_v0.3 Released. See this thread.
2009-08-03 UPDATE: Version 1.3 Released. Changes: Removed "Microsoft VoIP" (seemed to be causing issues) and Adobe Flash (slow) packages
2009-07-31 UPDATE: Version 1.2 Released. Changes: Added "Microsoft VoIP" and "no2chem_nueTools_nueCPL-Kernel" packages to USER_OEM
2009-07-17 UPDATE: Version 1.0 (originally posted) has a bug. My BuildInitFlashFiles.exe put HEX FF FE at the beginning of the file (just like notepad). It is now corrected, and the download link has been redirected to version 1.1. I have also attached the correct BuildInitFlashFiles.exe in a zip.
Some packages copied from PPCKitchen.org.
Some links goto dcd1182.n715dp.com (dcd's file site).
Thank you to nosedive for his radio power off help.
Please post any bugs/issues you may find. Also, please let me know if everything is working properly. Thanks in advance.
ANY ROM BUILT WITH THIS KITCHEN REQUIRES:
-RADIO VERSION 3.35 OR NEWER. I use 3.42.30. GPS does not seem to work with 3.42.50!!!
-HardSPL. I use nueSPL ... Requires SD card for flash.
DOWNLOAD THE KITCHEN HERE! (v1.3)
Known Issues:
-Data connection settings need to be manually entered (I think this is corrected by installing carrier CAB)
-ArcSoft MMS application not included. Install from CAB. Can be installed manually or via SD Autorun (see below). DCD Carrier CAB must be installed first.
-A DCD Carrier CAB is required for proper functionality.
-Voice Command does not announce caller ID info properly "out of the box" ... I wrote a little app to correct this (MSVC_Announce_Fix ... See this thread). I have this installed from SD Autorun.
-Comm Manager button shortcut is not correct. It will work until you go to Start->Settings->Buttons and click ok; after that you will get an invalid shortcut error. I have a CAB to correct this ... See post #9.
What makes this kitchen different then any other? As is (no user modifications), once flashed, the OS starts up with the radio off! I did this to make flashing and restoring a cleaner process. I use SBP Backup for my backups. PPCPimBackup can also be used, but it does not backup/restore MMS messages.
The cooked ROM will have SD Autorun. I have created a folder and SDConfig.txt on my storage card to install all of the software I want from CAB files on first boot. I am going to write an application to build an SDConfig.txt ... More details later. SD Autorun also runs my SPB restore process (manual intervention required to complete restore). SDConfig can NOT run (EXEC) from the storage card. I wrote a small launcher that can be used to run an EXE from the storage card (WM_BackupLauncher.exe ... needs to be cooked into ROM ... Currently in USER_OEM package dj13241_settings_basic ... This program will run ONE specified in "\Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt".).
Here is my full SD Autorun config and files. See ReadMe.txt in ZIP.
To build your own SDConfig.txt:
-Create a folder on your storage card for the CABs (I use SDConfig_Files)
-Copy all CABs to be auto-installed to this folder
-Create SDConfig.txt in the root storage card ... Should look like this:
Code:

WM_BackupLauncher.exe will just exit if "\Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt" doesn't exist or the EXE referenced in the TXT file doesn't exist. If you wish to use the auto-restore functionality, create the file, and put the full path (without quotes) to the exe used to restore your backup.
SPB Backup WM_BackupLauncher Instructions:
-Copy your latest backup file to \Storage Card\SDConfig_Files\LatestBackup.exe
-Create \Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt with (no quotes):
"\Storage Card\SDConfig_Files\LatestBackup.exe"
-Follow normal restore procedure. I always click Customize Restore, uncheck System Data, click Next twice, click Options, check Force ROM upgrade mode, click Done, click Next, Select ROM Upgrade Mode on the dropdown, and uncheck Overwrite existing items, keep clicking Next until restore process starts.
PPCPimBackup WM_BackupLauncher Instructions:
-Copy PPCPimBackup.exe to \Storage Card\SDConfig_Files
-Create \Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt with (no quotes):
"\Storage Card\SDConfig_Files\PPCPimBackup.exe"
-Follow normal restore procedure
I am going to write a registry customization tool for stuff like ClearType, Owner Info, Email Accounts, Change Button Names/Functions, etc. for use before cooking ... More details later. For now, I have hard coded some registry updates in dj13241_settings_basic.
To build a ROM:
-Run 00_CleanKitchen.bat
-Add (or remove) any additional packages to the USER_OEM folder.
-Run 01_BuildOS.bat
-Check BuildLog.txt for registry errors. Search for "(RGUComp) done!" ... Indicates success
-Run 02_CreateROM.bat
Your new cooked ROM will be in a folder called "Cooked_ROMs". All build files will be named with WM OS Build (21042), AKU (1.6.1), and Date/Time Stamp. Most registry build errors are because of either a key that RGUCOMP doesn't like, or the RGU file is not setup properly.
To flash using RUU (USB):
-Copy the NBH file from the Cooked_ROMs folder to the RUU folder
-Run ROMUpdateUtility.exe
The whole process:
-Build a ROM
-Flash the ROM
-Allow "User Customizations" to execute (this is Autorun and SD Autorun)
-Restore backups (My SDConfig.txt takes care of this)
-Reset phone
-Turn radio on (Manually or add "EXEC:\Windows\PhoneRadioOn.exe" to SDConfig.txt before LOCKisabled and RST:Reset)
-Install DCD Carrier CAB (unless it has been added to SDConfig.txt)
-Install ArcSoft MMS CAB (unless it has been added to SDConfig.txt)
Done!

I found a bug ... The word completion and auto-correct do not seem to work. I'll take a look at it. If anyone has any info on this, please let me know what to check.
Thanks.

How much free RAM on boot?
Will Windows Media Player play .3gp or .3g2 files in this build?
About 20MB free on boot ... Includes nueKernel (Start->Settings->Kernel) which allows you to re-boot the ROM without Camera drivers to allow for more free memory (about 25 MB free total).
Media Player does play 3GP files. I can't seem to find a 3G2 file (and don't feel like converting an existing video) ... Can you send me one (just reply and attach)?
Sure. Here is some crappy one I found on my phone. I had to zip it because I kept getting an "Invalid file type" message.
When turning phone back on I get
The file CommManager cannot be opened.

It looks like I screwed up the shortcut for the comm manager. The problem starts after you goto Start->Settings->Buttons, and the comm manager item is missing from the selection box. This should only effect ROMs built with my version 1.3 and older kitchens ... It will be fixed in the 1.4 release (soon).
I put together a CAB file to install the "Comm Manager" shortcut into Start->Programs and then set the button to use the new shortcut (see attached).

Your 3g2 video played in Media Player with no problems.
Just to let you know, that fix did not work.

Is there a Comm Manager shortcut in Start->Programs after installing the CAB? If so, you can set the button to run Comm Manager.
PS - You can always browse to \Windows and execute WrlsMgr.exe

You should post in the tutorial, no need to opened a new thread. Chef Central is a good resource.
On that note, thread closed
