This is a windows based tool that I created to add things that I like to existing Gingerbread ROM's and to Hellraise I9100 Gingerbread ROM's (Samsung or CM7/MIUI/CM9 based) and I have decided to share it with you guys. One thing this is great for is flashing the updates of a ROM you use on a regular basis, I got sick of having to keep putting my custom init.d files (mostly that I would forget) and editing the Build.prop on the android was a pain in the butt so this tool helps me and hopefully you guys will find it useful too.
How it works:
1. First you select a ROM that you have downloaded using the button to the right of the "Selected ROM" textbox.
2. Select what options you want to do to the ROM (like adding systems apps, init.d files, and custom Build.prop parameters, or Hellraise it!)
3. Click "Build ROM" and the program then unzips the ROM, apply's the user selected options and rebuilds the zip file so it is ready for flashing.
4. Copy the zip file to your phone and flash away!
5. If your phone does not boot try these 3 things before giving up (one of these should get you going)
a. Flash the same zip again
b. Remake the ROM using a different kernel
c. Remake the ROM using a different modem (making sure you selected the modem from the right type)
6. Always remember to wipe cache and Dalvik, and factory reset if you are coming from a different ROM, just like always.
How to Hellraise:
1. First you select a ROM that you have downloaded using the button to the right of the "Selected ROM" textbox.
2. Check the "Hellraise the ROM" check box.
3. Select if it is an ICS ROM.
4. Select a kernel from the dropdown list of kernels (I have included the Kernel from CM7 and MIUI and also included latest Siyah)
5. Select a modem from the dropdown, being careful to select the modem type for the ROM you are Hellraising (You will see 2 lists in the above picture, 1 for Samsung based and one for CM7/MIUI.
6. Click "Build ROM" and the program then unzips the ROM, apply's the user selected options and rebuilds the zip file so it is ready for flashing.
7. Always remember to wipe cache and Dalvik, and factory reset if you are coming from a different ROM, just like always.
8. Copy the zip file to your phone and flash away!
How to remove device specific checks (this is what prevents some of the I9100 ROMS from installing on our phone:
1. Check the "Strip out device specific script calls" box
How to add Init.d files to the ROM:
1. Just click the one you want to add from the "Add Init.d Files" section so you see a check mark next to it, all files will be added to the ROM that have a check mark on them. WARNING: the loopy_smoothness init.d file contains some of my custom lines in it to work with MIUI, so if you are not using MIUI you will need to modify it!!!
2. To add your own Init.d items, navigate to the "Initd" sub directory for this program and copy your custom files to that folder (make sure there is no extention on the file name) and then restart the program and they will show up in the list.
How to add Build.prop items to the ROM:
1. Just click the one you want to add from the "Build.prop Mods" section so you see a check mark next to it, all files will be added to the ROM's build.prop file that have a check mark on them.
2. To add your own Build.prop items, navigate to the "BuildProp" sub directory for this program and copy your custom files to that folder (make sure you add ".build.prop" to the end of the file name) and then restart the program and they will show up in the list.
How to add System/App Files:
1. Just click the one you want to add from the "Add System/App Files" section so you see a check mark next to it, all files will be added to the ROM's System/App directory that have a check mark on them.
2. To add your own System apps, navigate to the "CustomSystemApps" sub directory for this program and copy your system apk's to that folder and then restart the program and they will show up in the list. I primarily use it for QuickOffice and CM7's camera.
How to append to the new zip file:
1. Just type something in the "Append This to New Zip" field. Make sure you don't use wierd characters that windows/phone wont understand.
Applying an MIUI theme:
1. Place your favorite MIUI theme (they are the files with .mtz extension in the "MIUI/Theme" directory on your internal sdcard) in the "MIUIThemes" subdirectory of my program to ge them to show in the list.
2. Select the one you want to apply to the ROM from the "MIUI Themes" selection dropdown and it will then be automatically applied to the ROM, its that easy!
Text Editor:
I have also included a text editor to edit scripts and Build.prop modifications so you can modify them anyway you want. Simply select a file from the list and then click the "Edit File" button to the right of the list (there is one for init.d files and one for Build.prop Mods).

2. Speed up zip/unzip process
3. The hang on building the zip file should be gone now too.
4. Added 2nd version of 3G tweeks for build.prop (got from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1510532)
5. ICS ROM's seem to be working now too for the purpose of removing the device specific checks to get them to install.
2.17.2012.0
1. Added text editor for any file (on top menu under "File")
2. Changed "Build ROM" button to "Execute" and gives you 4 options (to give you guys alot of flexibility).
2.16.2012.0

2.15.2012
1. Added check mark for removal of device specific checks
2. Fixed init.d file copy errors.
3. Added ICS support, only tested AdyScorpiusMIUI v4 and stopped there cus I liked it. Just a few warnings, you will get no sound if you make a call and the USB stuff seems to be messed up so you won't be able to transfer files using USB once the ROM is on there and the hard button issue of course. Other than that, everything else is working including the face-unlock, ENJOY!
4. To get AdyScorpiusMIUI v4 to work, check the Hellraise button, check "This is an ICS ROM", pick the ICS kernel, and check the "Strip out device...". Thats it.
5. Always make a backup before flashing!!!
