LG Monaco - Cooking Questions [Ask Questions Here]

---

I've noticed that a fair number of people have downloaded the source files for my ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1025113) and figured that maybe we should start a Cooking question thread.

It's possible that those folks creating their own ROMs have been able to find answers to all of their questions already, but if not, feel free to ask those questions here.

can you give us the OEM Packages
of gw825v and the language is simple chinese thanks

Well the answer to your request is not that simple.

First, LG doesn't break their OEM section into packages. In comparison, HTC is very good about separating their OEM section into packages (separate folders containing all of the files and registry settings for the one application/service). This is necessary for them because they have dozens of devices and they are fairly good about releasing updates.

On the other hand, LG has very few devices and they are not very good about releasing updates. Instead, LG simply dumps all of their OEM software into a single folder labelled OEMMisc.

If you are asking for a copy of the OEMMisc folder for the GW825V, then you can download it from here.

If you are planning to cook your own ROM and you follow the instructions here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=671136
You will end up dumping the ROM anyway and you will have your own copy.

If you plan on cooking, I suggest you work on doing the dump yourself. I should be able to help you with any files you need.

Hi trueg,

2. How to repackage the dump files to a bin file successfully. i failed to repackage for many many times. may be i make a wrong BuildVersion Folder?

Before you can properly build a GW825V or GW820G ROM with Spocky's kitchen you need to make the following modification.....


\[LG] kitchen_2.2\TOOLS\DZCreate.ini

Change

[GW820]
Chipset=QSD8650
SubFiles=0x0BF80084
SubFileType03=amss.mbn
SubFileType08=partition.mbn
SubFileType14=appsboot.mbn
SubFileType15=flash.bin
SubFileType16=apps.mbn
SubFileType17=dbl.mbn
SubFileType18=fsbl.mbn
SubFileType19=osbl.mbn
SubFileType1A=dsp1.mbn

to

[GW820]
Chipset=QSD8650
DZVersion=0x03
SplitSize=0x01000000
SubFiles=0x03F80084
SubFileType03=amss.mbn
SubFileType08=partition.mbn
SubFileType14=appsboot.mbn
SubFileType15=flash.bin
SubFileType16=apps.mbn
SubFileType17=dbl.mbn
SubFileType18=fsbl.mbn
SubFileType19=osbl.mbn
SubFileType1A=dsp1.mbn

If you are adventurous, you could modify the whole kitchen to support all four models. (You would also need to modify \[LG] kitchen_2.2\start.bat)

This is what my DZCreate.ini looks like.....

[main]
workmem=280
[GW820]
Chipset=QSD8650
DZVersion=0x03
SubFiles=0x0BF80084

SubFileType14=appsboot.mbn
SubFileType15=flash.bin
SubFileType16=apps.mbn
SubFileType17=dbl.mbn
SubFileType18=fsbl.mbn
SubFileType19=osbl.mbn
SubFileType1A=dsp1.mbn
SubFileType1C=fwua.mbn
[GW820G]

Here are the build versions for the official ROMs.
GW820 v10d - 21749
GW820 v10g - 21749
GW825 v10c - 21868
GW825V v10d - 21891

1.
We can worry about changing the language once you can successfully build a working ROM.

2.
See post above. If that doesn't work, let me know what the problem is.
