Hai everyone,
I would like to go and build a rom myself.
I've been reading the forum a lot, but still have no clue where to start.
I want to make a dutch rom based on the official HTC WM6.1 rom.
I would like to recieve some tips and tric on how to start making a rom.
I know how to dump a rom and how to reconstruct it.
Now i want to know what tools and programs i can use to modify the rom.
For example how to remove programs and how to add them..
So i able to make a start and go my way from there.
Needless to say i will release the rom on the forum as a return of favor
Hope someone will give me some tips on how to start.
哈哈.看不懂.你想做说什么啊?
Hi I'm not that new to cooking ROMS, but I'm by no means an expert when it comes to making one myself.
I have been reading and reading and searching but I can't find a nice clean easy to use kitchen for the GSM Touch Pro anywhere.
My Touch Pro(actually, it's an AT&T Fuze) will be arriving this Thursday(Jan 15th) and I would really love to be able to build my own custom ROM and possibly release it to the community but the community seems to be somewhat lacking in the "Kitchen Department".
I took a good look at NotATreoFan's kitchen. Every OEM is lacking an option.xml file and there are no tools included to actually build the ROM.
I looked at jcespi2005 and JugglerLKR's kitchen and that kitchen seems very non-user friendly.
Coming back to GSM from a CDMA Community, may I ask why there are no complete, user-friendly kitchens here in the GSM world? CDMA has the PPCKitchen, they have tobeychris&Ghettofreeryder's Diamond Kitchen, and they have electronicrice's kitchen for the Touch Pro(CDMA).
I just don't understand why no kitchen like that exists for the GSM Touch Pro. I think it's a really good idea to have a user-friendly kitchen because then anyone can make their own custom ROMs and then you have more variety because everyone has their own style.
Just my 2 cents...
Dan.
i prefer using jcespi's kitchen it is very userfriendly.
On xda you can find the simple steps.
Or do you want a kitchen that does everything on command at it own
just kidding here's a link http://rapidshare.com/files/151114881/Raphael_ROM_Kitchen_v0.62.rar
hmm, the raph kitchens buildos looks almost exactly like ppckitchens buildos, but instead of holding your hand it gives you freedom..
if you prefer the easy to use gui with pre assembled packages, why not use ppckitchen?

I agree, it's too automatic-- no offense, but I want the chef shaping the ROM and not the kitchen Always nice to have personal touch

Yeah I gotta agree with that. Ive tried ppckitchen and i couldnt handle the lack of control over my files.
If you comfortable with splitting out the payload give Da_Gs kitchen a look. It is fast and has the newest build OS which i think is more efficient. Its posted in the raphael kitchen thread on one of the last pages.
If it helps ive got a small tool which will make the option.xml files in batch form?
Simple process:
get your packages into a common folder
make sure they all have a dsm inside with a valid guid
drag the common folder onto the program
type in the group name you want
the tool creates the option.xml for each package with its name being the folder name and the group being that which you entered at the start.
it defaults the checked values to "true" aswell.
Am at work at the mo so cant post it but will do when i get home if thats any help to anyone?

Guys
I'm all about getting into this stuff forehead deep so I grabbed jcespi's kitchen tossed my nbh from the stock cingular rom for the fuze just to get started to see if I could figure this out. Am reading through his docu's but I'm a conceptual techie I can talk it but in the onset rely on advice and coaching that being said none of you are baby sitter. Where would you suggest someone in dilemma start; I'd like to contribute more can pick up stuff pretty quickly just need a good starting place to get the hang of this so I too can where maybe a chef's bandana lol. Any advice is as always much appreciated!
While I'm primarily a conceptual techie; I do get my hands dirty once they are dirty enough I won't ask the redundant and sometimes dumbe questions... I promise ... going to download that other kitchen referenced above as I am more of a visual learner and don't mind microwaving some ROMs before I actually pan fry or bake anything.
Thanks again!

This is exactly why I posted this. I'm not looking for a GUI kitchen or anything like that but I am looking for a base kitchen that doesn't involve extensive modification before it can be used.
I will have my Touch Pro by tomorrow afternoon and I want to be able to contribute to the GSM community just like I did for the CDMA community.
i read this thread so here you go:

(oem rom sys in my thread will work with this, ill make an easier to use one later)
Obviously you didn't read my idiots guide for rom ccoking & use the easybake kitchen, which makes roms with five easy steps involving only deleting or adding packages & 4 mouse clicks.

Actually I did read that and I'm not a fan of that method. I prefer a clean base and not a decompiled carrier ROM. Decomped carrier ROMS can become very messy very fast...
I searched in the forum, but it seems to be no present a tutorial forcooking a custom ROM.
I've got a GalaxyS, i flash many ROM and i've to install apps everytime...boring! So I wonder if is it possible to modify a custom ROM to add/remove apps for instance.
I'm a java developer, but I've got no experience with Linux... Is it a problem?
Could someone post a kind of guide to learn how to moify a ROM?
+1
its because we have touchwiz.
if we had stock android, it would be much easier developing
Well I have an evo and I too am looking for a tutorial to cook roms. I have no developing experience and just want to learn.
count me in too! I already have ubuntu just need some direction to get started on the vibrant.
Here it is a video guide for Samsung GalaxyS (i9000)...thank you Nokia7Vista!
Edit: nevermind, thought I was in a different section
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Read read and read.
Go through the entire Android section of the Chef Central (The section you posted this in).
Check all the threads taht look promising and talk about tutorials or info or what not... Just sift through the data here and they'll have tons of links, threads, tutorials for you that you can read and learn how to do everything at...

You can modify:
framework-res.apk
All the apps, you can unpack the .apk's, located in /system/app/ and replace the icons, or even the whole app.
You can add/remove/replace .apk's, located in /system/app
services.jar
Much, much more.
If you're on Linux, you can unpack the .apk's out of the box. Otherwise, install 7zip.
Once you're done modifying them.
I was thinking of teaching myself how to cook WP7 for Leo. Ive looked through the HD2 section and the WP7 section. I got myself the kitchen and some basic instuructions, but i have a few questions.
1) where are the langugage files and how can i add/delete language abilities?
2) I can make the default.hvm file and user.hvm file, but how do i open them to edit things?
3) If i screw up cooking my ROM and test it on my HD2, will it brick the phone?
I really dont want to release something, that doesnt work, so if anyone could help me, that would be great!

Just for starters, have a look at Yuki's Great tut on cooking WP7, which i believe you already have.
now the questions,
1) i dont know much about this, but usually on x86 platform microsoft has ttf fonts for languages which are linked to system language preference using registry database.
2) they are registry hives, use any registry hive editor from google (works for me)
3) Nope, HSPL protects user from bad flashes in bootloader, MAGLDR protects HSPL by doing flash work in userspace. so if you flash a bad image, power goes off during flash using MAGLDR and DWI, only the data on NAND will be corrupt, you can still boot into HSPL bootloader and MAGLDR and next time you flash a good image, that will boot as well. (you will have to format/clean the partitions ofc if using Android)
Although this is a dev section its not for asking questions, do that in the Q&A forum.
The only posts here should be dev releases/projects/reference etc.
What do you think this section would look like if everybody was allowed to just post questions?? Thats the whole reason the Q&A forums were created in first place.
sorry TheATHEiST, my bad. ill remember that from now on.
@Rick_1995. Thanks for that! should get me started!

The .hvm files are actually editable in any text editor, as I found out. Just don't forget to convert them back to .hv files like I did.
Well seeing many developers at my age (15) It makes me want to be a developer myself .. One thing ; I don't know jack about android coding .. So I'm wondering where do I starT? What are the Minimum requirements to be a Dev? What tools Do I use ? I know that I might need a linux partition and I'm actually downloading UBUNTU Right now.. So If any Dev can point me into a direction of 'how to code for android' or something like that, that'd be awesome!

To properly develop a rom you will need A linux box (but a partition will work for some of it) Need to know c+ and java coding as well as being good with using linux.
What's a Kitchen Though?
I remember Using a online kitchen for my Galaxy Spica to make a Samdroid mod ... Is it like a easy making rom thingy?

The android kitchen is a way to make simple mods to a custom rom. IT will not do all the work for you to make a custom rom that is not just another modded rom. Do a search for android kitchen on XDA and read up on it. There is not simple way to make a rom. You can make a customized rom or translate a rom (MIUI) but neither of these is making a rom. If you trully want to make your own rom you will need to learn java and C+ coding
