Itjes Guide on how to cook your own rom, fast and dirty J Part 1

First of all, this guide will not tell you everything you need, I cant show you where to find reg entries, where all files are located. It’s a guide that will show you the basics. I will tell you how to extract a official nbh to os.no, how to dump it to respective oem and sys folders where you will do your “cooking”

First of all download Hypercore Kitchen here, then run the install file.

You will now have a folder called hypercore on your desktop, and a folder called core, located on c:\core

After install, download this fixed batch folder: batch or from mirror here: Batch

Delete the batch folder in c:\

Extract it to c:\core, and replace the original one.

The reason for doing this, is that there had to be some changes in the batch files for it to work.

Now you have a functional hypercore kitchen and you can start working.

I am gonna release a OEM, SYS and ROM folder for you, but not yet. I want you to understand how mutch work it takes to build a rom, and you need to go through some of the steps that all the other chefs must when they build roms. Why not just make it simple and give you everything? There is a answer to that, and you might not like it: Because I don’t want to….

Download your official RUU from here

Use winrar or similar to extract the files in the installer, choose extract to a folder.

Open the folder you extracted the files to, and find the RUU_signed.nbh

Copy it to c:\core\tools

Open your command-promt (dos editor)

Go to c:\core\tools

Your command promt should now look something like this:

When this is done, you must enter this: nbhextract ruu_signed.nbh

The nbh will now be extracted and in the core\tools folder you now have all the files dumped from the nbh

The screen should now look something like this:

See the second last line Extracting: 06_OS.nb

That is the file you will need.

Rename the 06_OS.nb to OS.nb

Copy the OS.nb, then close the core\tools folder

Move to your desktop, and open the hypercore folder

Then enter the extract folder, and paste your OS.nb there

Go back to hypercore main folder, open the Panel folder, then open the Extract folder.

Inside the extract folder you will find a file/shortcut called Dump .nb and .bin

Now a panel will open and give you 4 options:

Now you are dumping the OS.nb into a xdump folder located in panel\extract

Your answer here is 1 since im doing this guide for heralds

Now a new window is gonna pop up and tell you that in that windows your OS.nb should be placed, and if you did what I told you correctly, then the OS.nb is located there already. So close that window, and then another option in the command promt will ask you to hit enter when ready, witch I now suppose you are.

The OS.nb is now being extracted into the xdump folder located in the extract folder. This takes aprox a minute or so.

When the OS.nb is finished extracting, you will get a option to start pkg.tools. just close that option,its not working for some reason, I never really looked into it, I just did a “workaround”

In panel\extract you will find pkg tool

Start the pkg tool, and you get a command promt window, read it, and then press enter.

Now you should see this:

Choose option 3

Pkg tools will now open.

Go to the file menu in upper left corner, chose open, then browse to hypercore\extract\xdump\

Highlight the dump folder and press ok.
