As I'm new to the whole Leo and Check collaboration, was wondering if someone can explain this 'Kitchen' thing to me being included in the ROM - my thoughts on a Kitchen were they were used to MAKE ROMs, do I download, flash and then use some sort of Wizard to custom the ROM that is then installed?

Cheers!

Thanks! I use AppZorter to sort my app but it doesn't sort properly. It only sorts 16 apps per screen. Guess I need to email AppZorter's dev to see if he can add 4x5 20 app sorting. Or, do you know of a TW sorter that can do 4x5 20 apps on a screen?

Here guys, use this. Its the TouchWiz launcher from the 4G. Got it on xda here some weeks back.

Allows alphabetical sorting of app drawer

u need BLN app and disable it thats it. bit it's not enabled by default cause your kernel needs to support it as well which is not the case with cf-root kernel. u will need to change to syah for example to be able to use it.

thanks. i dun want it enabled because i read that it wont let the phone into deep sleep which chews a lot of battery.

thats a whole utter rubbish..sorry for that...on my experience i have been using BLN since the word get go and i never had any problems with it chewing up my battery..even overnight when i get messages while sleeping and BLN is enabled i still get only 3% drop in battery overnight...so if i was you feel free to use it...and if you tested it and chews your battery, then feel free to have a go at me and i will chew your battery for you:D

Chios
Goodmorning and greetings from Greece....
One question,I am doing backup my user data with kitchen app and I don't see any progress bar when I press "Backup now", why? Is this the way it's working?
There is a file userdata_backup in /download/Revolution, this means that it is ok? Thanks all of you....

    So as all of you know me and CheckROM Team teamed to form one massive task force to deliver to you the best!
    We have been working on the ROM for some time and now its time for you to enjoy it.
    Thanks to Our Server Admin geistteufel (He hosts all our work on his server)

    The Rom is built to be Fast, Stable and to Save Battery




    The ROM will come as a Base
    i.e
    It will have the Stock Samsung Look to it and will have all major tweaks to it, The Kitchen app from now on will come built into the ROM itself and it will be Locked to only our ROM.The Kitchen will now Auto Update itself when ever i publish a Update, So you will always be using the updated app.

    All the Mod's,Themes and other Stuff that you can customize will be aired by the KitchenPro.

    NOTE
    • Make sure you have the latest Revolution Rom kitchen running in your phone
    • It may happen that after a package has been installed from the Revolution Kitchen Pro app, on the first boot you phone hangs at the Boot logo, just long press power button and restart your phone!
    • I'd like to point out that i am not responsible for any issue with your phone! Also it's highly recommended to backup efs folder before to start playing with your phone!
    • For those people who is coming from LeoMar75 Revolution ROM 2.7.1 and has installed Kitchen Pro app v1.1
      -Backup user data with the kicthen v1.1
      -Titanium backup
      -cwm backup
      -full wipe and download the new rom

      Hopefully with the kitchen app v1.2 that comes with the new ROM you will be able to restore you user data backup but you need to copy files from /sdcard/download/Revolution/userdata_backup/ to /sdcard/download/CheckROM_REVO/userdata_backup/

    Kitchen Pro Application - Build your Rom as you wish!

    The kitchen Pro App comes with the ROM, however you will find the apk attached


    If You Support our ROM Put this in your Signature.

    Just Copy and Paste the code in your signature
    HTML:
    [URL=www.checkrom.com][IMG]http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/8413/sigcs.png[/IMG][/URL]

    The Kitchen pro app only work's with our ROM, it will not work on any other ROM neither do we plan to make it work on any other ROM.
    I have developed this app/sources from scratch and it is copyrite protected and any illegal reproduction of our work/Apk Tooling is a offence.



    CheckROM Kitchen Pro V2 Post:http://bit.ly/KitchenProV2

    When The KitchenPro App gets an Update it means that the .apk it self is update this dosent mean that the Kitchen Content is updated, Content update in the app is done manually either by Me or GC who ever gets time to do it! So Dont Rate the app on the Content it Hosts, Give it 5Stats for the Revolutionary app it is

    We have nearly 100000 Regular users for 2 devices.Buy us a couple of beer (and use the "Thanks" button!).
    Imagine if every KitchenPro User had to purchace the app & also the amount of time we have spent in making the App and the ROM
    But we love sharing so we will always remain free, But our Servers Dont Come Cheap​

    Q:What is odex/deodex?

    A:

    Odex:
    Every android application comes with the extention '.apk'. Packaged with every apk is a .odex file which contains parts of the application which helps speed up the boot process and preloads it.

    an odex file is an optimized version of a classes.dex file that has optimizations that are device specific. In particular, an odex file has dependencies on every "BOOTCLASSPATH" file that is loaded when it is generated. The odex file is only valid when used with these exact BOOTCLASSPATH files. dalvik enforces this by storing a checksum of each file that the odex file is dependent on, and ensuring that the checksum for each file matches when the odex file is loaded.

    Deodex:
    Deodexing is a way of repackaging the apk such that it is reassembled into the classes.dex file. Everything is put together in one place, and this is helpful because it eliminates any chances of a modified apk conflicting with other odexed parts.

    to deodex a file using baksmali, it has to load every BOOTCLASSPATH file that the odex depends on. By default, baksmali will try to find the 5 "core" BOOTCLASSPATH files in the current directory. It can use either a jar/apk (with a classes.dex inside), or an odex file

    So to sum up everything, a .dex file contains the cache used by Dalvik VM during boot and this .dex file is located inside the application. On the other hand, .odex file is an optimized version of the same .dex file but it is located outside the application.

    What do I lose/gain using odex/deodexed ROM?

    The upper hand deodexed rom has over odexed is integration. Every ROM maker loves deodexing the rom because of two main reasons:
    Modification of apk becomes easier
    ROM is open to theme modifications
    So, as an end used, you would most likely want to have a deodexed version of a ROM to take full advantage of android freedom. However, note that you won't lose out on performance in an odexed ROM.

    Q: After falshing siyah kernel kitchen Pro app does not works anymore
    A: CWM5 comes with siyah kernel, this custom recovery has a bug related to mount point for sdcard (internal/external). Two possibility:
    -You can still use the kitchen app for downloading packages but in order to flash packages you should reboot manually your phone in recovery mode and install packages located in /sdcard/download/CheckROM_REVO/
    -If you remove your external sdcard the kitchen will work fine!

    Q: Which Theme to flash or will this theme work
    A: Any theme that is built for XXKH3 Deodexed is flashable with the ROM.
    But the only Downfall to this is that you will end up loosing a few features like Jkay Themes app!!
    Now the Themes that dev the Themes at Checkrom.com or our official themes dev's who make themes for us make there respective themes over CheckROM so when u flash there themes you don't lose any features :D

    Q: How this ROM is different from others ?
    A: This ROM is heavily modded with a custom theme, features, apps etc and also has my personal tweaks and improvements.

    Q: I'm coming from a different ROM so which version should i choose wipe or non-wipe ?
    A: Choose the Wipe Version.

    Q: What is the difference between wipe and non-wipe version ?
    A: Wipe version will delete all your apps and settings whereas non-wipe version will not delete your app or settings.

    Q: I'm getting bootloops what should i do now ?
    A: Follow the steps below:
    Get into the CWM recovery
    Wipe Data/factory reset
    Wipe Cache
    Wipe Dalvik-Cache
    Wipe Battery Stats
    Format Internal SDCard
    Install the wipe version of my ROM

    Q: I'm coming from a different ROM how can i install this ROM ?
    A: Follow the steps below

    Wipe Cache
    Wipe Dalvik-Cache
    Wipe Battery Stats
    Wipe Data/factory reset

    Q: I'm currently on a previous version of this ROM how do i upgrade to latest version without loosing my apps and data ?
    A: Follow the steps below
    Remove Android related stuff from the internal SD Card
    Get into CWM Recovery
    Wipe Dalvik-Cache
    Wipe Battery Stats
    Install the non-wipe version of the ROM

    Q: I want to make sure nothing of my previous ROM interferes with my new ROM what should i do
    A: Completely wipe your internal SD Card or delete any Android related stuff from it and disable any lagfix. Then do a full wipe from ClockworkMod recovery then install the wipe version of my ROM.

    Q: After Installing your ROM I'm getting bootloops/boot issues?
    A: Do the following steps:
    Take out the battery
    Put the battery back in
    Get into Recovery
    Wipe Everything
    Flash my ROM
    Done!

    Q: Screen Capture doesn't work what should I do???
    A:It has been removed from the Base Rom due to problems with CRT Screen Off.
    Install it from the Kitchen if you need it.

    Q: I have Kernel X, my Boot animations don't work, help...
    A:Some Kernels don't support Bootanimations or need special files (Speedmod, Lulz etc.). Install a Kernel which supports it, like Rage, Nimphitamine, Siyah etc.

    Q: How can I sort my Apps alphabetically?
    A:Use the App "Appzorter" from the market.
    Or install Touchwiz 4.5/ modded Touchwiz/ 4G Touchwiz/ Use another launcher.

    Q: I have high Android OS drain, what can I do?
    A:First read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1290020
    Second: Try the things mentioned in the Thread.
    Third: You can try to change Kernels, but it isn't a Rom issue.

    Q: How can I get more Functions in the Dropdown Quickpanel?
    A:Use JKay Deluxe Settings app. Then swype them.

    Q: How can I add "Reboot" to the phone options dialog?
    A:Use JKay Deluxe Settings app.

    Q: When is theme xyz coming to the Kitchen???
    A:If the Team said that a new theme will be added to the Kitchen, then it will be available as soon as its done.
    Enable Notifications in the Kitchen App if you can't wait.

    Q: I am not able to flash via Kitchen???
    A:Delete Clockworkmod folder
    Reason:
    Previously to make the kitchen flash in older version of CWM5 we need to use a salte hash file that was placed in the Clockworkmod folder, Now with the updated CWM5 the actually problem with CWM5 was fixed by the respective creator!

    So now what happens is that all you people have that salted hash file remaining in ur sd card that doesn't allow to flash stuff in the newer better CWM5, thats why when u delete the Folder it stats working coz the salted hash file gets deleted!

    Now you may ask why delete the folder, when u can delete the file only!!
    LOL answer is simle the Android os never recognizes the file there so when u open myfiles you never find the salted hash file inside the clockworkmod folder! You can use other apps and methods to delete the file but then there is the obvious questions from noobs!!

    So Moral the problem is only with that one salted hash file and not ur backup

    Dark-Knight Kernel

    [KERNEL] DarkKnight V2.5.2
    has all the features of Siyah-v2.5.2b with the following exceptions:
    pm_max to pm_fast
    wifi range should be increased.
    If a feature cause instability it is disabled or limited. Battery optimizations are included as long as they do not decrease the performance or cause instability.
    default cpu governor is conservative
    default i/o scheduler is deadline
    sleep frequency is 800MHz
    stock lowest brightness value

    [KERNEL] DarkKnight V2.4.3
    hd playback is fixed.
    touch lights fixed.
    sleep freq is set to 500MHz and it should be stable this time.
    it should be near perfect, even the best release made till now.
    fixed USB OTG
    Added intellidemand governor. this is a modified ondemand governor and very battery friendly.
    default lowest freq is set to 200MHz. default governor is still (tweaked)conservative.
    some other tweaks & fixes
    tweaked ondemand, conservative and ondemandx governors. I think stuck-to-800MHz problem is fixed.
    Enabled some tweaks in tweaks.sh. video playback on external sd should be better now.
    disabled hidden ssid in wireless driver to fix wifi tethering problems (thanks to Entropy512)
    back to SLAB
    fixed usb keyboard&mouse problems

    [KERNEL] DarkKnight V2.3
    Changed auto-brightness levels.
    fixed auto-rooting problem
    reverted back to old workqueue implementation
    reverted memory allocator to SLAB
    enabled cleancache
    default i/o scheduler: sop
    slub as in stock kernel.
