INSTRUCTIONS:
Before you begin, make sure your device is supported, and the device is rooted.

1. Download and install the application.

2. To create the ROM press the "Create a ROM" button on the main tab of the application.

3. To install the ROM created, simply go into CWM and install it like any other.
F.A.Q.
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".​

Check the changelog, CM is not supported yet. You can only make fruit cakes of Blur-based ROMS with this version of the app.

AHA!! So that's what it does...rofl

sam, awesome awesome job man, what a bloody great idea. This will not only contribute to the rom's available for photon and atrix but also every other android out there...in theory im assuming...=)

I also have a question. Once you have "created" your fruit cake, does it "bake" the custom kernel into it as well?

    Yes, some minor technical issues. I'm hoping to have it all corrected in the coming days. As well with an update. Man, 1 step forward, 10 backwards.

    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.
