If u made changes to the system and have root, get a terminal emulator and use the following code:
Code:
 dd if=(system partition) of=(extraction place) BS=4096

So on my phone it would look like:

Code:
 dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14 of=/mnt/extSdCard/system.img BS=4096

The SYSTEM.IMG is all my system files, compressed into a .img file.

Now you're going to need something like Dsixda's kitchen. Open it and place the system image in the original zip folder. Now open the kitchen and choose MAKE WORKING FOLDER FROM ROM (or something along those lines; I don't have a reference in front of me). The kitchen should convert the system image into a normal ROM files and u can simply zip them up (don't forget the META-INF folder)

I'm using "apktool4.4 run on android" to create rom from my device's system

You can download here, and install it..
code*google*com/p/apktool/downloads/list

to create rom just tap menu button an choose "create ROM"

but you need to create your own updater-script to make your rom perfectly installed..
