How to build:

Step-1: Download and unrar the ROM_DEV_2.rar. It should look like "C:\ROM_DEV" after the unrar.

You will find two cmd files (1. BuildKitchen.cmd and 2. CreateROM.cmd) inside the ROM_DEV folder after the unrar.

Step-2: Download the desired OEM's and the empty ExtROM (if you need it)

Step-3: Run the BuildKitchen.cmd (first time only), it will dump the rom and prepare the kitchen for you.

Step-4: Copy the OEM's to OEM folder (i.e. C:\ROM_DEV\OEM\) and empty ExtROM to ExtROM folder (i.e. C:\ROM_DEV\ExtROM\)

Step-5: Run the CreateROM.cmd to build the rom

Step-5.1: Click on Start in "BuildOS" and close the dialog when done.

Step-5.2: Encode the rom, click on Encode, select the project file, Encode and exit the dialog. It may complain you that the file is too large....just ignore it.

Step-5.3: Set your device to bootloader mode, connect the USB cable and start burning...

You can use BuildKitchen.cmd to dump other WM6 rom and prepare the kitchen. In that case, decode the rom, copy (or overwrite) the nk.nba file to the ROM folder and run this cmdfile to build your own kitchen.
