Stock firmware :
In this guide JVP 2.3.4


How to :
* Get the modem and kernel (zImage) you want to use
* Un tar PDA.tar and CSC.tar
* Use Magic iso to extract factoryfs.rfs, Got to File, Open,
choose show all files and browse to the facoryfs and open, when open right click the NO NAME, up to your left and extract it.
* So now make a folder called system
* Put the extracted factoryfs in the system folder and zip it. (I use no compression as its faster)
* Now u have a zip called system.zip with a system folder in it.
* Put the system.zip in the dsi kitchen folder /original_update
* Start the kitchen and use option 1, go with default options.
* Use option 0 advanced, then 11 and then option b to deodex system apk and framework, and w8 ;)
* Now save the system folder from working folder in the Kitchen
* Get my template
* Dont extract the Template just open it in winrar or similar.
* Copy your modem and zImage (kernel) to the update folder
* Now copy your system to the template /system
* Use Magic iso to extract cache.rfs, Got to File, Open,
choose show all files and browse to the cache.rfs and open, when open right click the NO NAME, up to your left and extract it.
* Unzip the sec_csc.zip and copy the files to system, (1 csc folder and 2 files)
* Now u should have a working stock ROM to flash in CWM (rooted)
* After testing the ROM you can optimize and zipalign it.
* In apk manager folder /place-apk-here-to-batch-optimize you put
framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk and all system apks but not these:
AxT9IME, Camera, Email, MMS, Phone, Screen Capture, Settings, Swype, Thinkdroid, Voice search
* Choose option 15
* Then choose both(zp)
* Let it run and done.
* Now put back the apks where they belong in the ROM.
* Flash your optimized ROM and feel the difference!

Hey Perka!

From the Captivate forums, I would like to say this guide is a fantastic base for creating ROMs, I have created my own ROM using this guide by coldflid:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1142104

But this is yet another fantastic guide, and now putting them side by side on and reading both would have saved me a couple hours of reading on google.

Hahah but great guide!

Well did u open it?

When its open in magic iso, there's a window to your left with the file structure, right click and extract to a folder of your choice.

If u need it I can make some screens.

Post if u want them.

and pls ask if anything.

Ps. maybe u can just copy all to a folder?

Hey, thanks for the quick answer.'ve opened the magic iso serched for the file and pressed the option to extract, and it extracted in the location file i choosed, bu the extracted content its just the same as the original file, same size, same name, same rfs extention. What was i suposed to get with the extraction, several files? I'll try to make it again and try to extract it before anoying you to post some captures, if it doesn't works, i'll be back to be a pain in the ass again :D

OK, manage to do it. but now i have other question:

in system file do i put together the extracted content of factoryfs.rfs and cache.rfs withouth any other files ?
What about CSC extracted file? it contains also a cache.rfs.should I extract it too with magic iso? and shall i put all the CSC and PDA files toguether?? I ´m a bit messed up here, but just need you to clarify me better the whole PDA and CSC part, ...well I know that CSC goes on system but i don't really have clear if i need to extract the cache.rfs from CSC too. I hope you can understand me right, because I´m a bit confused too :eek:

    Maybe u could answer a quite simple question :)
    I made a ROM which is full functional etc..
    But I did many build prop edits and when I release I want to provide 2 versions :)
    One with buildprop edits and one without :)
    Uploading a ROM is always very slow so I just want to create an update zip,which replaces only the buildprop file.
    I tried to do that but i failed :(
    Can you help me ?:)
    Would be awesome ,thanks :)

    Look in the zip I provided, put build.prop in /system (remove the file I put in there.)

    Dont forget the thx button ;)
