Guide for Cooking !! - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development

My Dear Chefs,
I have been on the xda-developers for quite long time now..
I have been flashing my prophet with new ROM every now and than.But I have always wished tht I cud make my own ROM.
I did as much reading on the forum as i can ...bt I have not found any cook book with the tools which can Guide me step by step to make a ROM.
I have already installed the HYPERCORE and NEOKit bt i fail to even complete even 15%.
I am not a program writer nor a computer engineer by any means but yes I can assure you that I have passion for learning and will definetly b able to cook my own ROM all I need is some help and guidence.
Can my dear friends give me a guide with a good tool to start with..
PS.I know there are many more like me and making this thread sticky will just flow the thread by new ROM every 15mim by some rookie like me..lol

have you read this?

is there a rom with ie6 on it for my hermes 200
thanks and happy new year to all
Go to the wm06 part of the forum and look at the specs.... You should also do some research about flashing before you start, use the search function to look for "Hermes rom flashing". Anything from MRVanx is pretty good to read as he has a tutorial for all the things you need to know.
Before ALL else, INSTALL HARD SPL V7.........
Cheers...
thanks
thanks and wot a very cool site and very helpfull people on it must have flashed my about 20 times looking for the right rom to use mite have to start cooking myself thanks to all for the help
20 times, looks like you've just started...
Cheers...

using : sumits vanilamanila(for old gene) and loving it
What apears is that you have flashed your device without SPL-ing it, please try to reflash your Gene with the original ROM, which you will find in krazy's Stickey. Best of Luck. And by the way, why don't you ask first before flashing your Devices? I asked around 20 questions before first flashing my Vox!
Shaunak, its not worth your effort answering these kind of threads, enough is enough. We are not here to do the Kidwalking, let them search on their own.

post removed coz i realize that i had used harsh language,which shouldn't be used in the forum. But nevertheless, my feelings remain same
can u tell me is it old or new gene
Nobody in this world can tell you a phone is old or new gene. Its only become known when you follow the process given in tutorial actually. If you read the tutorial instead of wasting time here, you will get to know exactly what i mean. THis is a developers forum, for heavens sake, and you cant even read a 1 page tutorial?

Thanks for reply.
When I run gene_hspl_ht8x.exe I get error in a small diloug box is
"'Gene HSPL'
Unknown version of SPL.
HSPL FAIL."
btw, If I try to unlock spl with sumit's trick old hspl wont work for me for sure.and my gene will brick. But what if the new hspl is not even working on it? My phone will be bricked for ages....
someone please help....
I do not if it will work for you or not. There is a spl file in Zelalat's ROM thread by ankit360, the Hard SPL file or rather the Gene Bricker (LOL) worked for me from that post. But do it at your own risk.
read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2953612&postcount=2
BTW, right now krazy has an excellent tutorial, ramersonw has another, but you people just dont have enough time to read the forum. When I came to the Gene forum, what three or four months back there was nothing of this sort in the forum and everything was totally unorganized. Yet I was able to flash my Gene without asking much and reading a lot.
why wast ur time
hi
dear Krazy& addict why was ur time

@svrhari
I dont want to be harsh, but what the hell you think of me?
You have your gene unlocked by the easy tut. but I have bought it 2 days ago.
I have a low post count so this doesnt mean that Im a nub.Im reading this forum from 3 weeks ago. I have all the tools from the stickies, and i have followed them all.
So if you think you are wasting your time, please ignore thise thread. thread.

^^I flahshed my Gene on the same day I bought it without any tutorial, so your point is?
Have you tried the file in Zelalat's thread (ankit's Post not zelalat's, that did not work for me)
@Xmuit
hi
i flashed my Phone after 6 months of buying my phone i joined this forum few days since i got my phone but the day i decided to do HSPL i decided that it was my decision and at that time their was no tut here and just because u bought ur phone a few days back dose not mean people here have to jump to help u and buy the way this has nothing to do with post iv been here for a long time and my post count might be less than ur so
AND I DID MY HSPL THE HARD WAY THEIR WAS NO TUT AVAILABLE WHEN I DID IT
yes i got help but i did not put up a thread i asked individuals in the various threads and also by PM and after a long long time this great guy helped me whom i don't want to mention here but he too helped me when he as free and i waited for the same
EVEN today i dont put up threads for my personal self i put threads which are also useful to other
AND WHOS MISTAKE IS IT THAT U BRIKED UR PHONE NOT ANY ONE HERE
i gaurentee u that if u read Krazy stiky save it on ur comp and read it around 10 times and use the tools do wat it says word for word sucess is urs
don't u DARE show ur frustration & anger on me its ur mistake that u briked ur phone no ones else is responsible OK
still wishing u luck

Firstly Mind Your Manners Everyone.
(doesn't mean anyone's wrong)
imblfmstr, as you can see (check that big banner in my signature).
There are tips on creating a new Thread about YOUR problem.
It helps to go through the stickies, because after that you can mention which steps you have tried from those stickies.
(in case you then decide to start a new thread)
And try to imagine that your device does not get saved by the tips in the Stickies, but by something not mentioned in the sticky and that then only gets posted in this new thread.
Because most people would go through the stickies this (hypothetical) new information might get lost to those users.
That is why a lot of users try to make clear the importance of posting and using the stickies instead of opening a new thread that can easily disappear to page 147 (which no one ever reads)
Why r u writing it to me
thats fine but it was someone else who popped up this thread
my problem was solved with help of krazy
Thnx for the search bar addon...
We should keep forums clean!!man u ppl cant send ne private msg. to experts like krazy,svr( he is not a chef,but he still helps oder ppl a lot,Ankit,addicted.plz dont waste threads:l
i had flashed my mobile on next day of purchase.
A Request to all New Members please Read stickeys!! before posting ne new thread.95% of things are already there in stickeys.Still if u dont understand read 1nce again or send private msg.

complete package for a newbie

hey, im quite new to this, so im posting here to see if i might get som help in the matter.
im looking for a rom package with WM6.5 and sense 2.1 thats easy to install for a newbie. if it has a good instruction manual i would be greatful. thanks in forehand for all the help
Read the sticky's they will provide all info needed regards Hard-SPL \ flashing custom ROMs then check out ROM threads and flash away, till you find the ROM you wish to keep.
No easy way to it, good luck.
On that note thread closed.

[Q] should i do it?

first of all hello to everyone, I am new to this site.
i came across this site since i have been searching for ROM developments to my phone.
i see this is a very comprehensive site with ALOT of information and i dont even know where to begin.
So i hope someone nice here will answer a few questions
First of all, is it worth upgrading to another ROM (one of these sticky threads ROM)
I've been looking at the Artemis but again im not sure what to choose.
Also no idea how to upgrade it and if anything goes wrong is it possible to backup the original ROM?
I like to upgrade since im not very fond of the original ROM, also a bit slow from time to time.
I am not a computer noob just very new to this. Hope someone will help or point me in the right direction.
hi there.
I whole heartedly recommend flashing a custom rom to your phone. I only flashed my first rom earlier this year. there are plenty of tutorials here on xda. this really is a great community.
search in the threads for MSkip's guide to flashing your first HD2 rom. Just always remember to read instructions thoroughly.
Roms are down to personal taste but I personally like the Energy series.
good luck.
I was afraid to, but now I'm glad I did (flashed like 5 times now, till found the ROM for me) Just remember to read all the ROM info and instructions carefully and for the love of God, have the proper Radio version for the ROM OR ELSE YOU WILL BRICK IT!
