{Solved} Kaiser ROM Kitchen - working!

[JugglerLKR]

Kitchen is done and working. I'm still testing it, but for now we can build ROMs in WWE, RUS, SPA and possibly any other languages.
Thanks goes to bepe, jcespi2005, mamaich, tadzio, darksimpson, trinca, itsme, pof, vasil and all others who helped me!
Files and guide will be here soon.

I would also like to get to know what tools are needed for coocking a kaiser rom as I will be getting a kaiser in the near future and would like to continue my prophet touch series as Kaiser Touch or something like that.

[JugglerLKR]

I've dumped ROM from working device like in POF's post. Then trying to rebuild ROM using dumped files and WWE rom as base.
No I'm stuck at the point, where Bepe's BuildOS tool ask for missing xip files like this:

[Missing Files]

Can not wait to see your work with Kaiser ;)

[JugglerLKR]

it seems nobody wants to share knowledge how to cook custom rom, and tadzio's tools don't dump XIP correctly, many files are missing (see my upper post). but since helmi and duttythroy already cooked some roms there is a way to do it...

[jeffreycentex]

I've tried the hermes XIP extraction, but it fails on me when I try to run the "dumprom" command.. I think ROMMaster is the ultimate culprit, but I am still investigating...

[JugglerLKR]

I've finally managed to reconstruct russian rom from device dump, xip section also has been successfully extracted - thanks goes to bepe for his help and tools! so it is like i have some sort of rom kitchen, but at least now we can play with roms a little :)

Can you share the XIP extraction process? or are you planning to make a little kitchen guide?

Thanks.

[JugglerLKR]

actually i made it only for my very own purpose - to rebuid russian rom, i don't know if it will work in general case for any rom. everything is done manually, so i can't call it full featured rom kitchen. and many questions still left unanswered, but it magically works on friend's device Tytn II (i don't have my own kaiser yet :))
and I still don't know how to extract XIP from htc downloadable rom, only from device dump. so to extract XIP from some rom first you have to flash it to device, then dump it with pdocread, then extract XIP and rebuild ROM. tools I used provided me bepe, so he is who deserves donations for that. i've only figured out the trick with xip... if somebody wants to make a rom kitchen there are two things have to be done:
a) figure out how to extract xip from .nbh (helmi_c and duttythroy probably knows that)
b) ask bepe for permission to use his tools and make them publicly available

[duttythroy]

I have been busy for the last few days so this is my first post on this site for a couple of days.

Regarding XIP extraction i still figuring a way to do it. I think helmi_c might know how to do this but I can guess he does it with a hex editor.

My way of cooking is similar to you dumping an manual using a custom kitchen which is sometimes tedious but If I can get to dump the xip also from .nbh I could release a kitchen for beta testing.

so, we are waitng! :)

[gullum]

now I start have my kaiser and I want to coocking :D but I need more info on how to do so with kaiser.

When you get everything together start a new thread and PM some of the Mods, we'll sticky it for you.

[le_cactus]

Congrats dude. Looking forward to using your manual/kitchen.

Thanks!

I still owe tadzio some info. My Tilt has been working overtime for me lately however & I just haven't had time to reload a bad ROM & send him the info. So far, I've been unable to obtain a second Kaiser for this purpose as well. Hopefully I can get him what he needs to get his tools up and running for the Kaiser itnf. I'm running a modified ROM from his tools currently and it appears that as long as you don't increase imgfs size, the XIP info stays. Consequently, I've been able to cook in reg mods and the PIE scrollfix but have been unable to add any utilities.

Still Waiting!!
