[Q]How to make my own ROM? - Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development

I'm trying to change my language, and make some customizations, and wanna know if somebody have a step-by-step tutorial to make it.
Can I use some other tutorial, from another mobile, to make it?

The Raph is generally considered to be alot similar to the diamond when developing ROMs and changing stuff, take a look in the diamond forum. Not alot of devices around to test the Raph stuff yet sir.

since diamond, raphael and kaiser are from the same breed - try reading here:

and info is normaly collected in wiki

I need help to learn to cook a ROM

Hello everybody, I tried a lot of roms from all the developers from this forum.
Now I would create my own ROM, but I don't understand how to start.
Could someone help me in this adventure?
here is a good way to start
try using my nanoscopic kitchen then you'll see what is needed to coock a rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327225
then you can start to use the hyper core kitchen and start dumping roms to rebuild
The BIG Gullum!!!
Thx so much for all of your job. I will try to read your instruction.
Gullum, how can I get the OS.nb file? I mean, with Nanoscopic I will able to add/remove some apps from the ROM, but the OS will be still the same, isn't it?

yes you will need to use hyper core for dumping new roms but most new roms the rgu files(registry settings) have been removed... so it's verry hard to make roms out of the never roms.
but you can use my kitchen to learn and you can also find lots of oem packs on this forum that you can include in the oem folder of the kitchen
It means that I can only add or remove some cabs file?
But how you can create a ROM from the beginnings?
I think that is not possible for me to change the ROM in the deep
An easy question: how can I change the ROM theme, or dialpad?
My friend Gullum i´m portuguese can you help me because i would like to learn about to change ROM for portuguese language is ti very dificult?

ROM Cooking for beginners - manual attached

Hi all,
I made this manual in order to help people like myself to better understand ROM cooking basics.
It was ment to be used for Prophet ROMs, but since it uses HyperCore Kitchen, it can be practicaly used for any WM6 ROM.
Please be free to post your comments and/or suggestions.
NOTE: This manual reffers only to "old" way of ROM cooking (first downgrading to WM5, and then flashing to WM6)
If you find it useful, please vote.
Thanks to:
Gullum (for great ROMs)
Anichillus (for great Kitchen)
Cloudyfa (for Step1 ROM)

No, thank you!! I will look into it.
me too
i like this
Thanks for your effort, this is a really good guide.
I just wanted to ask is there a difference between ROMs built this way and ROMs that we flash using new Hard/SoftSPL method.
I saw nb2nbf tool, so is it possible to just convert OS.nb file and flash it using new method or is there some more work that needs to be done?
thank you
I really need it !
Ill check it out this weekend! Seems like fun to me
I have red this guide and it is very clear, very thourough and a big help to anyone starting to cook! THANKS!!
(@ allothers that are missing some extra's: it is NOT an advanced course! So, don't complain but take an example and publish your own knowledge and experience this way. Then everyone can benefit)
Initiatives like these are giving back the original gaoal of this website, it isn't called "xda-developers" for nothing.
Perhaps someone can make a tutorial for skinning standard OS-parts (commanager, dialer, calculator, etc...) Or how to translate your favorite ROM to your own language?
you can't use this way to create XIP from Shadow's ROM, Crystal V5. ROM or from Korand's ROM.
If someone can make this XIP.. Could anyone share the file...
with that file. I can make a new ROM based on new OS..

Never flashed any of these ROMs you specified - so if their XIPs can't be dumped using Dump XIP tool from the HyperCore Kitchen, than I won't bother with them. Let me add that ROM cooker can also remove RGU files from ROM before posting, making it very difficult for someone to modify it. Then I'll skip such ROM too.
But...
FACTS
- This manual was intended for beginners.
- When you are a beginner in ROM cooking you don't like to be confused, but want it all to be clear to you before you do anything to your expensive device.
- I see that you are using modified Touch ROM, which can be dumped with this method.
- I also use modified Touch ROM, but I will not post it - there is enough good ROMs out there already
Cheers!
Hi All - my first post
Thanks for this Phnikola, I'm brand new to all this (smartphone) stuff and need a place to start. Looks good so far.
My TC500 never was in the shops, has no support and no official upgrade path (hmmm...) but there are a few cunning points concerning SIP and home landline "awareness" in the original ROM I'd like to take with me up into WM6.1 (got Cloudyfa's Shadow 2.0 TE ready to go).
Any1 have any good advice for me?
Thanks again

Yes it does, but you don't have to cook your own ROM. Just wonder around a bit on this forum and pick a ROM that suits you.

Think Dev_Id and Chunk are correct, but don't know about OS_Id (shouldn't it be 0x400)?
Were can you find this info? Anybody?

edit:I tryed to upload a visual kitchen you can create a kitchenfor iolite with it, but it wouldn´t upload. Lay in hospital - use UMTS surfstick
Me utilities interest to disassemble build... How xip to get?
When I´m back from hospital, I´ll give some files for cooking, but not the entire kitchen. Will be 1,03 GB!
I can is wrong I am expressed! I translate from the translator. I have a native assembly, it is necessary to disassemble on SYS, OEM and XIP. What program can be made it?
Ervius visual kitchen works.
I shall go to search. Thanks!
P.S. What devices are assorted by this kitchen?

Simple guide to translate an existing rom??

Hi guys,
I've installed the tael standard rom and it's very very nice, stable and all other good things, but I'm wondering if there's a way to translate it to my language.
I've no much time to read all threads for cooking and kitchen...and make myself a good overview of all that need to be done!
Is it possible to simply translate existing wwe roms without re-cooking them? Is there anyone able to write a simple guide to do that??
Thanks to all.

Cooking Help

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.
