ROM Factory

What is ROM Factory?
Its a tool that will allow the user to create a picture perfect .img from your boot and system partition. It will then create an update.zip from it.
What is a "Fruit Cake"?
A fruit cake is the finish product, a self contain rom, already ready for installation, already inside an update.zip.
So really what does it do?
It allows a bootloader unlocked user to create a full copy of their boot and system partition. All of it, including mods and changes done to either one of those partitions.
Can this be use for easier rom development?
Yes! Beyond just its normal capabilities! After installing the resources you can modify the script and add things to it in *sdcard* /fcm/workdir! Once you are done adding and changing things in there, press "Create ROM".

Am I right to understand that this is an alternative to taking Nandroid backup?.

no 10 xchar

So it will create an update.zip which is CWM flashable? How about generating a .tar.md5 for Odin?

Anyways, great work! Looking forward to this!

Afaik a nandroid backup is everything including data folder. This one i think is a little less than that. As op said it copies the rom so devs can pass them to their beta testers etc. A nandoid backup is including ur personal settings like bookmarks or last viewed webpages and contacts etc. And a nandroid backup is recovery dependant. Afaik a nandroid from a cwm v4 base wont be suitable for a phone with a cwm v5 phone.

Hello Guys

Is anyone experiencing issues, someone msg me about some installation issues, but did not really offer any info. If you are an user and you are suffering from install issues, let me know!

1.6 - The update that took a month. Will be release today. This will be amazing. I'm just waiting on testers.

Advance Mode
Apps Mode
Back Up Mode

New look

Open Source components

New site, new forums, new devices.

The update will be made available late tonight or early tomorrow. Depends on how tire I am after i get off work.

We are alive and kicking. Since release, Fruit Cake Maker has been downloaded 1,956 times. We are 556 active developers. A total of 12 bugs have been crushed. We currently work on 20+ devices and devices variants.

Nightlys and experimental.

Starting Feb 1st or 2nd. My build bot will begin auto compiling nightlys for those who want to experiment with the latest changes. Nightlys will be compile each night and made available no later than midnight.

An experimental build will begin to be compile mid Feb. the build will be compile every friday at 6pm. The experimental build will feture a different preference screen, and will require the user to specify all the variables. ie: boot location, system location, storage, mode. so on. This build aims at enthusiast who wish to use the tool on a non supported device.

FCM now has requirements. Busybox must be installed to use the back up mode.

Thank guys for your support.

I think it's great personally, used it on DHD also with ease.

I'm surprised this project doesn't receive more attention.
It certainly deserves it.

Many thanks

Paradoxxx · Jan 31, 2012

Wow. If I get it well, it create a flashable zip image of your current installation, with apps etc?
Wow. That will be a lot easier to share beta ROMs in the future.
Many many thanks.

I'm currently waiting on Google.

I submitted the new version into the market, but somehow i ended up with an older version being available for download. hopefully this issue will be solved soon. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

samcripp · Feb 2, 2012

1.6 finally!

Some of the testers are reporting errors with the new modes, but changing storage location seem to be working quit good. I will be writing a tutorial on how to properly use all the new modes. Regardless, this new version requires Busybox for app mode, and back up mode. It must be installed on /system/xbin << same location used by cm7 and cm9. I will be releasing a new version tomorrow or Thursday, to fix some of the new mode woes.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience.

Sounds Great

Hello,

The ROM Factory sounds like a great Idea, im not a developer but i can see why its great for devs,

Question is, will it be useful for just a user like I am?

if i am to use it to back up, how does it differ from Titanium and CWM NAND backup?

Thanks
