I'm quite the newbie when it comes to ROM cooking, quite lucky to have a P4350 so I can mess around a bit w/o worrying about bricking the phone. I was able to flash the t-mobile dump using this method:
xander803 said:
I'll try to detail out exactly what I did. The rom kitchen was used for every single step. The directions provided with the program are not comprehensive but done well enough that you can figure most of it out.
1). Use the extract tool and choose "dump from bin" and dump the wing os bin posted on the first page. This dumped the contents to a directory in xdump.
2). After this "pkgtool" will run to separate out the sys and oem folders.
3). Move the contents of "xdump" (which should be the sys and oem folders and maybe a couple other files) into the "kitchen" folder.
4). Place the XIP folder and Aserg's os.nb, both of which are found in this thread, into the "ROM" folder. Aserg's os.nb will have to be renamed, check for details in the rom kitchen help file.
5). This is the step where cooks can delete/add stuff but I wouldn't recommend it your first time through.
6). Run "Build" and it should automatically create your new os.nb. We don't need to do any of the conversion afterwards because we can just put this os.nb in place of Aserg's os.nb and use his method to flash.
Please read through the rom kitchen's help manual as well as Aserg's help file for flashing the herald and make sure you understand exactly what you have to do. If you don't have an unbranded Herald it may be difficult to recover from a bricked device. I bricked my device several times before getting it but luckily I have an unbranded Herald so I could just flash an official WM5 WWE back on. Lastly, do this at your own risk, this worked for me but may not work for others.

What I wanted to know is what I would have to do to switch the T-Mobile rom with the PdaViet rom in this process of cooking. I have tried various methods, but have had no luck right now. The ROM image I create hangs at the initial bootscreen.
Also on another note, not sure why this is but when I extract the PdaViet rom and then compile it back together using the Pro Kitchen, the new image is always a bit smaller (like I missed something.)
Question: How did you CID unlock your device?
I didn't have to CID Unlock to upgrade.
Well I found out that its normal for the rom size to shrink using the Core Pro Kitchen, this is because of Tadzio's program. What I can't seem to figure out is why I can't flash the new build of the PdaViet rom without it freezing at the first splash screen. At first I thought it was the missing .rgu files found by , but I have found out that those were taken out for a reason, so that cancels out one potential problem.
We just have to wait a little more. Anichillus is trying to creat the Kitchen for the herald as he promised it. But now after exams he is in holiday. But after that he will present a new kitchen. Just wait a little.
And yes - his kitchen compresses the files more than other.
Keep on working and cooking. The Heraldforum needs it really...
I never liked PDAViet roms - so let´s creat own ones...
Thanks
Thanks for the update, and only reason I wanted to use the PdaViet rom is cuz it has the newest build. Guess I'll just work with k0ster's release.
Yeah man, i'll beta test any roms you create, I just paid to have my Wing CID Unlocked and i'm trying out PDAVIET's rom's now.

Be careful. When it get bricked whiel falshing there is NO chance to unbrick with Herlad RUU!!!

I thought you couldn't CID unlock the Wing.
^^imei-check. It worked so far. No other wing user has tried, I don't believe, i'm the first guinea pig.
So I just started to cook ROMs for the herald and I have to say it is a long and enduring process, but simple enough that anyone who wants to learn is able to do so.
For anyone else who is interested I am using the Core Pro Kitchen to build the roms, using this rom as my base (very clean-also good rom to load to your phone directly. Doesnt have missing files unlike PdaViet rom when running PkgTool.)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319142
I also found a very useful selection of OEM cab packages that work with the herald for the most part. If they dont a simple edit will do the trick.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319970&highlight=rom+kitchen+guide
Even a newb can cook up a rom using this method so there ain't no excuses.\
Cheers
So by all means all P4350 users start experimenting and cooking up ROMS so that Terra and Wing users have something to look forward to when they have an RUU.
Which version of Core Pro Kitchen are you using? The one for Hermes?

anichillus told me that the artemis version should work.
BUT write an pm to him and he will give you a link to his "Hyper Core Kitchen" the complete new one!!!!!!!!!
Give it a try
im going to try this out again and see if I can cook something up. I tried and actually created a rom be4 but was too scared to try it out. ill see if I can have a release by the end of the week but my computers been acting up. imma try to get the touchFLO working also.
neptune, post your cooked rom up or post some pics. did u do a traditional rom or one with the Touch home plugin and stuff?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=323166
Would you be able to add that into your rom? It's a button free activation of the 3D Cube!
i'm currently cooking a rom using the Artemis kitchen, i'll post up how it goes, main issue for me is trying to make sure i'm putting packages in the right folder. I downloaded a .rar full of pre-mad packages so all I gotta do is drag and drop. i'm using k0ster's rom as a base but would love to use the official wm6 that was just released as a base as its newer and cleaner i'm guessing. we'll see, maybe we'll see some cooked roms from me soon!

It should be better to extract the REAL WM6 rom with nbhextract and then start cooking the rom with the kitchen for Artemis (anichillus Core Kitchen??).
ANd be sure - in about one week there will be a new kitchen from him
But please use the real OS. Not a ported one!!
^Alright, i'll try that tonight. What is the major files that people remove? (Transcriber, etc.)

Will you please test out my rom when it is released
Hi, been looking through the various sections of ROM development forum, and have a couple of questions. I am new to this Windows based phones.
1) When I dump the ROM, does this Backup the ROM, radio and Protocol, or do you have to do them individually? Basically can I put the MDA Compact V back into its complete original state if I dont like the new ROMS?
2) Has anyone tried Flashing the Compact V, if so, any improvements?
Hoping some of you experts can help out a noob!
2) You need HARDSPL installed. Then you can flash any topaz rom on it. Trust me, you don't want to go back to the t-mobile rom.
Let us know how you get on, i'm thinking of doing the same thing
I dumped my rom from the mda compact v but I havent put it back together as nbh yet. Downloading the topaz kitchen to do so.
It is always a good idea to dump your rom before flashing a new one. If your phone develops a fault t-mobile will not accept responsibility if there is a custom rom on there and they will likely tell you that your warranty has been invalidated. Although the t-mobile rom is awful is always good to have it backup up just in case of the worst.
Saying that I didnt backup the radio though and I updated that to the latest last week
EDIT: To answer the question yes there are improvements with running custom roms. I have not moved to 6.5 yet as I have a heavily customised uDK 6.1 rom and cannot be bothered to move to 6.5 and do all the customisations again. There 6.5 rom appear to be slightly buggier from what I read but it does have its advantages over 6.1.
Backup the t-mobile rom and move to the custom roms just make sure you follow the instructions carefully
Thanks for the replys.
Pauloke: I have backed up the ROM (parts.raw) and I have also got the kitchen, but I really have no idea what I'm doing. Worst case, I have a copy anyway. The kitchen instructions get quite techy very quickly and they soon lose me. Is there any way of getting a copy of the shipped ROM online?
Cheers

One way is to check the website of your provider. Sometimes you find the ROM (as an update) there.
Another way is to check the WIKI TOPAZ cooked ROMs page. By chance you find your ROM there.
Ohh man i must be rly stupid, why i cant figure out how the @#% i can dump my rom :S This dumprom tool is supposed to extract an already backed up rom right? i'm really confused :/
Has anyone tried flashing using JumpSPL. I suppose in thoery you should be able to use it on any device, and was wondering if it working for Imagio.
PS: Dump your orginal ROM before you flash a cooked one.
What are they chances it could brick my phone?
we would need a cooked rom first no?
It wont brick your device, as long as you dont flash not compatible SPL, Radio or OS. Need to cook an OS for Whitestone first and then flash. I can try it in my Rhodium, but it has HSPL already.
I am guessing it should work, as I do remember using this to flash HSPL on Kaiser.
It doesnt need to be cooked it. Just put in the device using activesync or file explorer after connecting to PC. Then u run JSPL. Flash the cooked ROM.
Once I've made sure I have insurence on my phone I'll cook up a rom and try this. If it works it would be a great hold off till a HSPL is made.

Yup thats what I am thinking. HSPL would be great, but until then we all need a good cooked ROM. If JSPL works it will be awesome. Maybe Cmonex would be able to tell us if it will work...
I realized after googling a little. That I have no idea how to cook a rom. If someone can give me a stock WinMo 6.5 with Leo SenseUI rom, preferably with the compatible SPL and Radio. I'll be happy to try the JumpSPL. Or at least point me in the right direction.
if only more cdma windows 6.5 roms were out there. could you the tp2 rom be used as a starter?

You cant interchange ROM between devices. It might cause to brick. So NEVER flash anything other Whitestone cooked ROM.
As a first step, you need to learn how to dump your phone and reconstruct it to a ROM just in case.
I am assuming VZW does not have an official ROM out yet!
The above link is for Rhodium, but not sure what will be different for Whitestone.
Then you take that reconstructed ROM, create your own kitchen with EV kitchen, and then start cooking!
But if VZW has released an official ROM, then cooking is real easy. Just get that ROM, dump and create a kitchen. Start cooking.
If you dont know what you are doing, then dont attempt this at all!

Well that makes it real easy...here is the Kitchen tool that I use for TP2. Use that and dump the official ROM. Then, cook it again with your flavor, and try to flash using JSPL.
exciting times
I'll try building a rom tonight/tomorrow. I'll let you know. PS. Can you shot me a like to the Leo SenseUI. So I can add it to the rom. I just wanna change something so I know it's my rom not the OEM.

can you get what you need out of here?
No I don't think I can use it. It's a rom not a dump. I also download the stock Leo dump and don't know how to take the Manila files from that dump and use it on the Whitestone dump. Is there a wiki for this kitchen or something? ai6908 you seem to be on top of this any help?
Imagio(whitestone) rom dump here..http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=89422
Yeah, thats the dump I have. But sadly I don't know enought to make that dump into a rom. Adding Leo's Manila to it is simply to know its the new rom and not the stock one.

It has to be an official ROM. I know there was a link for official ROM posted before. Download that, dump it with Ervius Kitchen, then cook it again. Flash that and see if it can be flashed. I will see if I can do that when I get time.
Hello guys, i have question.
For example i can`t find a Explanations for new persons who wana cook a ROM.
I found some Kitchens but its not writen anything, and is very hard for peoples who are new in the cooking to understand anything.
For example.. some Short Thread and usefl explanation like.. You need to download a Kitchen then you need to find and download OEM, SYS etc etc the elements for cooking new ROM and then you begin start cooking.
Its so confused that i even can`t find the latest packages to use for the Blackstone.
So all the things are not so hard.. and if we have Thread with good exmplantation.. we can read it several times and to know what we doing exactly, not everybody is born like a cooker and i think that everyone who wana cook ROM`s in the future i mean NEW Cookers will be awesome we to have from where to read ALL IN ONE post.
If Some Cooker can make a STEP BY STEP Guide in one Thread this will be very usefull for all.
For example now i wana Cook a ROM but i don`t know How, because its full with Thread and how much you read them is more and more confused.
Thanks in advance
OK, will give some ideas how to start. I am a beginner, so here I will tell you, how I started.
Before you start cooking:
- download this kitchen, which already have all needed packages in(Windows Mobile [6.5.5][23529] Manila 2.5 and other stuff). If you want kitchen with no packages go in this thread and for different SYS packeges look at this thread
This kitchen is best choice for new cookers, because it contains explanation for each system package.
- Then, read this thread - it was really useful for me, at least in general terms.
- Also, in process of cooking you will want to change some registry, so, keep in ming, that you should look mainly at these two files, they are for general registry settings
user.hv & default.hv
I am using WinCE Registry Editor to open them.
Cooking in Process
1) Beginning
When you will open kitchen in the first time you will see something like this
Then you should choose all main options such as Device Model, SYS build and so on...(if you downloaded kitchen without packages, you should add them manually - look at the "Folders in the root of kitchen" part to find, where you should place all packages)
When you will finish it, go to System Packeges(core components in WM)
Also, you need to choose, which OEM and EXT packages you want in your ROM
If you want clean ROM, just uncheck EXT packages, which you don't need. But remember, unlike EXT many of the SYS and OEM packages are crucial and specific for each device.
Please also explain how to REMOVE things from the pakacke that i don`t like for example programs if i want to remove mp3 trimmer and will be the same for all other apps that we wana remove
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well, as I said, in order to remove any program from ROM(for example MP3 Trimmer), you shoul remove its package from kitchen(simply uncheck it)
2) Folders in the root of kitchen
This is how base folder of my kitchen looks like.
CABs folder were created by manually(Oprional - you don't need to create it if you don't want). I am using this folder for all cabs, which I will convert in EXT packages in the future.
Flash folder is "the folder where cooked ROMs will be saved when the build process is complete" and also it have all necessary file for flashing.
Projects folder is folder where all your projects will be saved.
Resources folder contain "files and tools necessary for the kitchen to work, don't touch it!"
Sources folder contains all SYS, Kernels, etc. This is main folder, where you can change everything related to WM and its programs.
So, there is Sources subfolders:
-> EXT - there you can create folders and put your ext packages
-> MSXIPKernel - always create folder named as version and inside it place all MSXIPKernel files
-> NK - native kernels, create there folder for your device (names in first post). Learn more about this folder in the kitchen tutorial.
-> OEM - Here create just as with NK your device-named folder and place in it OEM files
-> ROM - There also create device-named folder and place in it romhdr.bin, os.nb.payload and folder XIP with MSXIPKernelLtk and OEMXIPKernel without nk.exe!!
-> Stuff - just some stuff for devices, you can't do anything there, don't touch it
-> SYS - There create version-named directories. In them are supposed to be few more directories:
->-> All - There goes DPI and RES related stuff, but NO LANGS!
->-> Common - There place all nonDPI, nonRES, nonLANG related files, just main binaries etc
->-> <lang code> - here goes all langs, like 0405, 0409, 0C0A etc
This was partly copied from kitchen manual, so if you want, you can read more about structure of these folders in this manual.
3) Import CABs, OEM and SYS packages to EXT
One of the main part of cooking process is adding programs in the kitchen.
You can do it in two ways - using program tools or copying in the EXT folder whatever you want.
Here, I will explain easiest way of how to do it by using program tools.
First of all, go to "Convert"
then choose option, for example "From CAB to EXT", fill all blank spaces
and you will see, that your packages will be added in the ROM
That's all! Then, when you will finish, just press "Start cooking" and waiting for results
I hope it was clear enough. If you have any question - post it in this thread or PM, I will try to answer.
Thanks for the Help, now i will explain you what i want exactly!!!
Why i want to cook a ROM
So i already have few Favorite ROM`s they are cool but they can be even more better, and clear.
For example i can`t dupm the ROM`s i love because they are protected etc.
So i like the Builds from Branch COM 2 now the latest one is 21893 i like them most because they are Fast and Stable, I just want to Have one Clear WM 6.5 Build ROM with Manila 2.1.19.21
What i mean by clear is ... all the ROM`s have alot of apps and things that im not using and never will use on the future, so this apps that are coocked just eat from my device memory. Also i want the default stock Task bar icons.. because if i want to costumize them i can do all this with Theme just to install a cab.
This is only the reason why i wana cook a ROM if you have any idea also HOW i can edit a ROM for example this my FAVORITE ROM witch is NBH file just to OPen it extract is somewhay and to remove all apps i want and to do some minorr changes and again to make it a nbh file will be awesome i mean that in this way i will not have need to cook a brand new ROM.

Okay if I understand you right the SYS Package is that for the Build and if i want diferent Build i just need to change the SYS the OEM is the Base and i can use now this OEM that is inclused in the Kitchen or i can Update this too? For example i download now the latest I download
SYS_21895_192DPI_0409 --- I understand that 192DPI is for our Blackstones 0409 mean WWE
SYS_21895_Common.rar
SYS_21895_XIP.rar
So i only need this components tocreate a new 21895 based rom and i can use the OEM that is on the Kitchen or i must change it too?
Testing method
thanks for the tutorial, i myself has been wanting to create my own ROM but dont really know where to begin...
1 thing that i would like to ask, is there a way to test the ROM without actually flashing it to the device? well, you know a newbie in cooking, can result in undesirable result if not properly done, and dont really want to brick my device (touchwood)...

Nothing like that exists that I am aware off. BTW you will have to make it really terrible to brick your device with a bad ROM.
Cooking means, altering stuff, cooking, flashing, f'ing up, alter some more stuff, cook, flash and so on.. There is no easier way to test unfortunally.
Yeah, thanks.
It's not probable that I'd cook my own ROM, but you never know...

I made myself a 23544 rom and cooked it with no ext packages at all. It flashed and booted fine, so I added all of the Leo 2.10 packages - nothing else. Now it boots to a white screen. I'm guessing there are some incompatible packages for the HD2, or I'm missing some dependencies for the HD. Anybody know what these are?
I'm interested in starting to cook, but as far as I know I need to have a stock ROM. Is this true, and if it is, why cant I cook on already cooked ROMs?
Where do I find stock ROMs? I want a swedish one, any 6.5-version and an english one, 6.5.5.
I have downloaded a swedish stock ROM from htc.com but that one is a .exe and I assume I need .nbh. Can I convert it?

You don't have to have a stock ROM but in some cases, it does help make it easier if you have one for your device.
You can open the .exe file with winrar and extract the files. The .nbh file should be in there.
Also, one of the new Kitchens I think will open up the .exe file and extract what it needs. Look through this Kitchen thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=628948

I'm using that kitchen and when I try to open the few cooked ROMs I already have I get this message: "Can't extract files or build packages from IMGFS structure. Please make sure the ROM is not corrupted and that it's an original ROM update released by the manufacturer."
WinRAR worked. Thanks. Now I need to find an english 6.5.5 whick can be opened in osKitchen.
You will not be able to dump most cooked ROM because of the way that the Kitchen put them together originally.
You should be able to download a source from the first post of that thread, and they have some updated system packages as well like 23541. You can also find the EXT packages there as well.
Found it now, thanks
Ok, I dont know if this cooking stuff really is for me. I dont understand what I'm doing. I managed to strip all HTC stuff from the stock ROM (a bit too much, a few things doesnt work) but that's pretty much it.
Maybe I'm trying to do stuff that cant be done.
My main goal is to get a clean WM 6.5.3/6.5.5 swedish ROM.
Should I get an english 6.5.3/6.5.5 ROM and change the language to swedish or get a swedish 6.5 ROM and upgrade it to 6.5.3/6.5.5 or do I have to find a swedish ROM which already is 6.5.3/6.5.5?

After you have dumped the Stock, you have the drivers, then go to the link and download a build, copy this into the folder sources, so OEM into OEM, sys into sys ETC... then launch the kitchen, select build and language. DO NOT DISABLE ANYTHING IN OEM AND BE CAREFUL WITH SYS!!! disable everything in EXT and you have a clean ROM
It worked! Not a very good ROM yet, but it starts at least
I've tried to change the welcome screen in the tweak settings but I cant see any difference. Where is that supposed to show?
And what is the difference between splash screen and welcome screen?
