Hello Guyz...this is my 4th Release....This Version of the Kitchen is coded in C# VS 2008 Professional..

ALL THE PATHS ARE HARD-CODED TO "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen"

I have included a help file also which explains all the instructions in detail..but even if u dont understand any thing or are facing a problem..just post it here or email me at

ather90@gmail.xom (replace "x" with "c")

Requirments :

1. .NET Framework 3.5 (many computer now has this)
2. Windows XP / Windows Vista
3. A Himalaya Device
4. Brain POWER :p

Instructions :

Welcome and thank you for choosing Himalaya Kitchen V4

This Help file will guide you through all the steps required to Cook your own ROM

The Kitchen Is Available in the Following Languages

English, Arabic, German and Italian

ALL THE PATHS ARE HARD-CODED TO "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen"



Once you start the Kitchen you will see that you have a bunch of buttons and Few Tabs....let's discuss each of them

Language Selection:

The Kitchen is Multi-Language Supported From Version 4...Once you Fire up the Kitchen you will see the Available Languages. Choose your suitable language and Continue towards the next Step

Embedded Help :

The Second Tab is the Help tab. from this version the help file is set to display from the "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen "...So it does not require any Internet Connection

Dump My Chosen ROM for Me:

Once you press this button a Dialog will open and start dissembling your ROM...BUT before you that make sure you have placed the rom file you want to edit in the directory named "Tools" ...after the dissembling is complete you will get a folder called dump in C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen\ folder…analyze it and select which files & modules to delete or to add and then press "Process My ROM's HKCU"

ONE MORE IMPORTANT THING. Whatever you do make sure the ROM has at least 0001 bytes of free space or it will never work

Process My ROM's HKCU:

After you press this button. A file by the name "HKCU.reg" will be created in the folder "Tools". Open it with Registry Workshop (a software from Torch Soft)...Once the registry is opened edit it and then save it.....even if you don't want to change any thing in the registry Open it and then save it

Now proceed to next step

Process My ROM's HKLM:

After you press this button. A file by the name "HKLM.reg" will be created in the folder "Tools". Open it with Registry Workshop (a software from Torch Soft) ...Once the registry is opened edit it and then save it ....even if you don't want to change any thing in the registry Open it and then save it

Now proceed to the next step

Re-assemble My New ROM:

When you press this button a file will be created by the name "initflashfiles.dat.txt" in the tools folder and you will be asked to edit it...Now this is the MOST tricky and sensitive part of the kitchen...if you edit this file incorrectly the ROM wont work correctly...some times when you haven't added any thing in the ROM just removed then there is no use of editing it. Leave it as it is and continue. After this step completes a file by the name NK.NBA is created...

BUT IF YOU EDIT IT MAKE SURE YOU RENAME IT FIRST TO "initflashfiles.txt" AND THEN GOTO "Misc Tools" Tab and SELECT IBE 2…AFTER THAT SELECT "Edit" AND PLACE THE RENAMED "initflashfiles.txt" IN THE OPENED FOLDER AND PRESS SPACE TO CONTINUE also do read the Help file of the IBE 2

PS. IF YOU CREATE YOUR "initflashfiles.txt" WITH MY BUILDER...IT WON'T ADD THE 2 EXTRA BYTES...SO NO NEED TO EDIT

Edit new NK.NBA:


If you have changed the ram disk size in the registry, you would need to make the following changes as well in nk.nba:

Once you press this button the NK.NBA will be automatically opened in the Hex Editor

For changing RAM Disk sizes find the following byte sequence, or Go to Address

· 0x004032e8 for WM 5

· 0x0040c2e8 for WM6,

· 0x00456250 for WM6.1

And modify as follows:

FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 00 00 08 --> 128MB Program, Memory: RAM Disk= 0MB
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 00 00 06 --> 96 MB program, memory: RAM disk= 32MB
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 00 80 05 --> 88 MB program, memory: RAM disk= 40MB
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 00 00 05 --> 80MB program, memory: RAM disk= 48MB
FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 00 00 04 --> 64 MB program, memory: RAM disk= 64MB

· If you want to change the ROM Date (shown in Start - Settings - Device Information), Open nk.nba in hex editor and go to Address 001c4ab4 and edit it…it looks like "Nov 11 2006" ( In Some ROM's these Values are stored in the HKLM registry )

· To change the ROM name shown in Start - settings - device info , Open nk.nba with a Hex editor and go to address 1C1C18 , line 36

· If you want to change the image/rom version (show on first splash screen bottom right corner), Go to address: 82CDF
search for old version and replace it with exact number of digits.

· If you want to change the rom version shown in the upgrade utility go to address 19 and replace it

Save your file and press build nk.nbf

Building nk.nbf from nk.nba:

After you have edited the nk.nba run this step and a file will be created in the "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen\Upgrade" folder * and the upgrade utility will be started automatically

Enjoy cooking and Flash away...

* In case you want to distribute your ROM

Cleanup:

Once you run this step. All the un-necessary files will be deleted from the Tools Directory and once again you will have a clean kitchen J…

Miscellaneous Tools:

Once you select this tab...You will see two options…

1. IBE 2

2. Splash Changer

IBE2 was previously known as "initflashfiles editor + builder"...it lets you build your "initflashfiles.txt" for your OEM packages and also edit previously created "initflashfiles.txt" file to remove the two Extra Bytes

Splash Changer lets you change your "welcomehead.96.png" file...Read the Help of Splash Changer for More Info

MAKE SURE THE IMAGE SIZE IS 240X320....THE TYPE OF THE IMAGE DOES NOT MATTERS

Here is a screeny :

ather90,

Can i suggest that the last stage, cleaning stage, deletes all files that are generated inclusive of the nk.nbf file and leave behind the created rom on your next upgrade.

:)

Ather
25th March 2008, 01:47 PM
i think you havent read the readme..the ROM image is moved automatically to Upgrade folder for the upgrade utility to find it..you can copy it from there

27th March 2008, 12:50 PM
i was successful in using your rom kitchen Ather90 using C_ShekharWM6.1.1cR16.P32_public image as the base nk.nbf on my
Qtek 2020 WM6.1 AKU 1.0 (32MB pagepool+ 16MB RAMDisk)
I am a newbie to this and have only had my device for a few weeks.I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction regarding adding/removing files from the image.For example say i wanted to add some program that was in cab format like Poorlyduck's Vista Dialer from his Vista suite,using a cab extractor to extract the files and the reg settings of the cabnet,this leaves me with a windows folder with the needed files and a reg file to import,mabey into both the hkcu and/or hklm, or link me to a good tutorial to read over mabey regarding adding the OEM files posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1549211&postcount=1
Mabey you could also add ms_.nbf editing for ExtROM within the kitchen
On i different note i have an idea i hope could be implamented regarding the nk.nba/nk.nbf in step 4-5 , would it be possible to use a checkbox or slider to input changing RAMDisk size and coresponding reg entry into your kitchen?

Ather
27th March 2008, 02:15 PM
hello hagis..im glad you were sucessfull..the addition and deletion of files is a complicated method...you ll have to manually search for files that you want to remove and add..for example

lets say you want to remove pShut XP
delete these icons

pShut xp.exe
pshutxp.lnk
Shutxp.lnk
if its an old version there will be also skin files of it

now if you want to add S2p for example :

copy all the files from the OEM package in to the dump folder (if they are in a folder take them out of it)
then if they have registery settings open the specific registery area and import the RGU file..now comes the HARD path...you will want windows to create shortcuts for you...when you get the option to edit the "initflashfiles" look at a line and copy it..now paste it in the second line and change the shortcuts to the name of the software ( in this case S2P.lnk)..but make sure that a .LNK file exists there..

if your ROM doesent starts up or when u press start you only get threee things this means that you have corrupted the initflashsiles file..you will have to re-cook again

regarding your second query..its not possible because you also have to HEX edit the file at the second last step..and regarding the extended rom..there is a utily called ER2003Edit..but as far as i remember they were last seen with WM 2003..this is WM 6.1


PM me or email me at ather90@gmail.xom ( replace X with O ) for furthur details

Thanks for clearing things up for me,is there a very basic rom image you guys work from ?

Ather
27th March 2008, 04:19 PM
I use my own Clean ROMS as Base rom..try to create your own or you can use the rom provided with Avis 6.1 kitchen...to create your own Base rom..just dnt add any files when cooking ..just delete files like speeddialer.pshutxp and etc....save the rom and try to flash it..if it works then enjoy...

How about Poorlyduck's Full Vista Suit as an option in your next kitchen ?
A minimal rom with this would rock :cool:
Mabey you could also include a good minimal nk.nbf to build upon also

With a kitchen you can cook a ROM to your own taste, put some programs in, leave other programs out. In general using a kitchen is less flexible than creating a ROM from bits and pieces using a selection of the many utilities that are around for the many steps involved, but kitchens are a lot easier to master than such collections of utilities.

I re-cooked my first ROM last night. I had to flash my device 3 times (I made some mistakes in the initflashfiles.dat file in 1st two ROMs) to get everything as I wanted.
-
Now I have two questions....
-
Question #1
-
How can I estimate the Free space left for me to add files in the DUMP folder...? At the end of creating the .nba file it says,
-
Total sectors 6678
Used sectors 6597
Free sectors 81
-

I know that the ROM is 32MB, so does that means I have 32/6678 x 81 = 397kB free? Or is it in hex or something that I dont understand? Is it possible to get an idea of the space left before creating the NBA?
-
-
Question #2
-
I tried to change the ROM details as you are described with the hex-editor. I changed all three locations you have described. On the Splash screen & on the Upgrade tool it worked well. But in the Device Information app it still shows the one of the base ROM I used (CS_19209). Where have I gone wrong?

But is it possible to estimate the total side of the files & the space left to add files fron the DUMP folder? When I check the size of dump folder directly, it is over 64MB even before addition of files...

I should be studying for my Comptia A+ test, but instead I have decided to try cook my first ROM using your kitchen.

I will let you know if anything explodes! :)

Cheers

EDIT: Lol, I failed miserably. Actually, I think I did most of it right. My error was when I tried to get rid of the last two bytes. For some reason it said it couldn't get rid of the end of the code or something, and then gave me two identical choices. I assumed the last two bytes weren't there and pressed cancel, then saved it. It then said it installed everything correctly but it wouldn't get past the very first bootscreen. I'll need to play with it more me thinks.

PS Something funny happens on my old 15inch widescreen LCD when updating the ROM. It doesn't affect the install at all, just thought you would like to see :)

first of all...its not the problem of your 15" old LCD.. :D its the problem with the RUU..i dnt know what happened but beore it was fine..suddenly one day i too got this same weird image

as for the stucking at boot screen..its surely the initflashfiles file

you can manually open it after saving it in hex editor..and look for the bytes FF FE in the top left and press delete key to remove them an then save and continue flashing :)

Can I change the wm 6.5 language with your kitchen?How?

Ather
27th December 2009, 01:31 PM
you can by editing the MUI files but the title of the kitchen means that the user interface is Multi Language
