Hi,

Thank you for this new version....

But I have a problem, I've compiled with OS 23691 HD2 and everything is OK. But COM2 OS 21916 HTC the nitialiasation freez! What can be the reason?

Thank you in advance if you can help me ....

@+ Pyrana
[Windows Mobile] af974:
I guess this has nothing to do with the kitchen,i cook for HD2 21916 and it works fine.......did you recmode NTConfig.dll in NotificationEnhancement?
[Windows Mobile] sc00basteve:
If anyone swings by this thread... could you mirror 12.3.7 for me cause 4shared seems to be down.

(EDIT - Just a Chrome issue... wierd)

Thanks for the updates ervius. I'm really enjoying the new features.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
thanks all you too, btw version 12.3.8 (only exe) solved bug on provxml creation when find on reg files "delete regkeys ([-)" and "delete regvalues (-)"
[Windows Mobile] NIKOSXRI:
File system cache - gdi cache

Ervious thanks again for your wonderfull kitchen.

About these values, does anyone has any proposal for leo?

Thanks!!!

don't work under xp

Hi ervius,

I already read several thread about your kitchen, but i don't find

why i can't start it under windows xp sp3 32 bits

i have net framework 4, c++ 2005 redist and c++ 2008 redist.

note : your kitchen work well under windows 7 32 bits

Hi,

Thank you I had not thought that, I am going to test

just tested on my netbook, xp sp3 (32bits) and all work well!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
go on kitchen_build_rom.bat and delete relative strings (del temp\dump\erviuspackages.zip)

and company, they are old files anymore made, so bat when try to delete gives error!

bye!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
yes, if you find them (somewhere around here, I've found!), you can build your preferred reg files or provxml files (with rgu-to-xml-v3 (new)), and insert into \tools\reg_tweaks\ folder and load before build your rom!

bye!
[Windows Mobile] vrgolin:
hi to all. im trying to dump the stock rom 1.66 with new ervius bepe¨s kitchen ver. 12.3.9 but i have more than 2 hrs trying to dump it and the proces is hang up. i dont know if iam doing something wrong , if some can tell me wy is happing this, thaxs in advance.

see pic.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
rename your os.nb into os.nb.payload and place that into rom\wizard\ folder,

into info.txt into \rom\wizard\ folder, create a new line and write:

"NOSPLIT" (without quotes!)

like this:

Wizard

DPI_96

dpi_96_resh_240_resv_320

NOSPLIT

(for infos, use nbhutil.exe and try to dump an nbh "wizard" rom, into left size, when you load the nbh, you can read and so, set right values ;) )

and buid your rom.

P.S.: into nbhutil.xml there are some devices not present, like "Wizard", or Blackstone....

has someone an updated nbhutil.xml, so, reading info into "info.txt", visualkitchen can insert good infos, like "chunksize?!?!?!

thanks a lot ;)
[Windows Mobile] CRACING:
OK, I done this but don't know what to write deviceid and chunksize box.

It say :

OS value on: "NBHUtil.xml" for WIZARDNot found...
Set 0X400 as default!!!

when I reselect my device ( wizard ). I opened NBHUtil.xml file and there is no info/settins about my wizard device. Should I write my device info/settings in NBHUtil.xml?

Thanks and regards
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
read my last post, I was editing it while you're posting yours!!!
[Windows Mobile] CRACING:
NBHUtil.exe don't work because wizard uses nb.nbf file but not nb.nbh.

I know that deviceid is wizard but don't found chunksize.:(

Edit:

Ok I found something; I opened my cooked ROM ( nb.nbf ) in typhoonnbftool.exe. I have attached the screenshot.

But I'm unable to understand this. Can I simply write this into chunksize box?

Size : 0x03850000

thanks and regards
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
no, I don't know if nbhutil is good for wizard, but theese arent the right values.

[Windows Mobile] ervius:
most folders are wrong.....

dump an original diamond rom and see the exact structure into, after dumping!
[Windows Mobile] hilaireg:
Probably a silly question to ask ...

Who in their right mind would timebomb a cooked ROM? What happens if someone is using the device for productivity purposes; or is it assumed that most folks change their ROM on a daily/weekly basis? Or is this an OEM BETA thing?

Just curious to understand the reasoning ...

BTW - Ervius/udK; very much appreciate your contributions.

Cheers,
[Windows Mobile] DaveShaw:
It's just an M$ beta ROM thing. Some of the beta ROM's released have a Timebomb to stop us using them :)

Ta

Dave
[Windows Mobile] hilaireg:
Hi Dave,

Thank you for the clarification.

I've been running into posts of late about cooked ROM's being protected and was wondering if this was the same thing.

Cheers,
[Windows Mobile] DaveShaw:
The protection you'll have been reading about is a method to prevent ROMs from been dumped and rebuild by anyone. It's normally done by removing some files from the ROM that are not needed for running. That's one way, but I'm sure ervius can list a fair few other ways to protect ROMs :)

Dave
[Windows Mobile] hilaireg:
Cheers again,

That's a shame :( I suppose a Chef who does this must have a good reason for it.

... releasing the HiJacked thread now :)
[Windows Mobile] Röchelhilpert:
Nice work ... i love this kitchen. But i have one problem --- pp changer seems not working. I must manually edit my os-new.nb file with a hex editor to change the pagepool. Hope this is fixable
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
tell me what search in bytes!!!) and replace on payload, and post me the nk.exe modules, so I can check on it and insert new algo if needed!!!

bye!!!
[Windows Mobile] chavonbravo:
Would be nice if there were an extra option to add the SYS/XIP version you want to use so you can have different builds ready, and not have to delete or overwrite all the work it took to prepare a certain build. Example: SYS/%build%/SHARED/Common/* and ROM/%device%/%build%/XIP/*, where %build% can be 20764,21009,21109, etc. Or possibly even different variables for SYS and XIP, like %sysbuild% and %xipbuild% in case you want to mix and match sys and xip versions.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
seems to work, only have to wait, I can see no "error messages" on attached file!
[Windows Mobile] vrgolin:
thanx for the answer , yes tou are rigth no erros messages, but now i have being waiting for amost 5 hrs and still in the same point. or how many hrs does this process last? and sorry i am a noob on this and i just want to remove some apps that i never use and flashing again, i still dont wana go to deep on this is a nake pain :D:D
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
process, 2 minutes, then appear dump nb, then dump imgfs ecc.....

I don't know what appen and why it stucks there.
[Windows Mobile] vrgolin:
HI AGAIN, well another day and still i dont see any RUU file on Release_leo folder of my kitchen , iam sending you the build_log maybe i miss somthing i dont know, i am going to start again.
[Windows Mobile] vrgolin:
ok i did again and i got this notification that i dont know what is, see the pic
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
the kitchen didn't find the "header.xml" for LEO, first you have to dump an original rom for the leo to retrieve this file!, or if someone has, give it (posting here), you have to put it on:\kitchenfolder\rom\devicename\header.xml, but is better if you dump an original rom to have also, romhdr.bin, splash.nb and splash.xml, and info.txt.....

bye!
[Windows Mobile] sc00basteve:
Hi ervius, I have some questions...

I was (trying to) play with OsBuilder before you started rolling out these awesome updates, and there are just too many details in that for me to get a bootable ROM.

- I was just wondering how VK (or is it platformrebuilder?) handles modules with the "L" flag. Does it really matter?

- What is platform rebuilder reporting here when it says 76MB free RAM?

Finalizing and optimizing ROM structure...

Is that Rom-side or User-side? And how would I increase active user memory?

Any tips appreciated...
[Windows Mobile] vrgolin:
this rom is original is from HTC WEB , HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2 I just donwloaded and xtract the exe. from that i got THE RUU_SIGNED AND THE ROM UPDATE UTILITY , and after that i open the ervius kitchen and dump the RUU and thats creat a ,EXT,OEM,RELEASE_LEO,ROM and SYS Folders and im cheking on the \kitchen\rom\devicename\ and i dont see any HEADER.xml file
[Windows Mobile] pkoper:
It is in the folder where the *.nbh is that you are dumping.

Attached is one from a 3.14 GER HD2 stock rom.

Just rename to *.xml
[Windows Mobile] Alan-B:
Hi,

.bat is ok in the last V12.3.8 and 9 ...

Thanks
[Windows Mobile] vrgolin:
hi, maybe some helpe, a just donwload the rom into the kitchen but i see that the OS id on main menu of the kitchen it dosnt appear . it that normal?

because when i want to creat the rom , the program is telling me that taht the OS id, is missing, then i guess is not normal :D:D:o

so what do i need to do or how do i put the OS id ?

see doc.

thanx in advance
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
you have to dump at 1st time an original rom of your device to have all files needed to rebuild all roms you want then, ever for your device!

bye!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
in some minutes at 1st post it will be version 12.4.3 full kitchen! (added some lost dll into tools\ folder and added new icon for the kitchen, (thanks to dev-fam users!)
[Windows Mobile] miniterror:
gracias mate:D
[Windows Mobile] NIKOSXRI:
Thanks!!!

Keep on walking...
[Windows Mobile] ervius:

i have header.xml in ROM\LEO

... and second problem in dump nbh file

[Windows Mobile] af974:
If you didnt already, try the latest 12.4.5 kitchen, some of previous versions were missing a dll in tools folder.
[Windows Mobile] elMInStER:
sorry i don't write it but it was on 12.4.5
[Windows Mobile] af974:
Are you cooking for some new builds? I guess that your error is a missing xip.bin.
[Windows Mobile] elMInStER:
I cooking on 23145. Xip.bin file is in temp directory and os.nb file was created
[Windows Mobile] af974:
Ok, im just trying to help you and trying to understand the problem:

Do you have problems with dump and cook a simple Shipped rom without modifications?
[Windows Mobile] af974:
LOL..ok i just downloaded new version and trying in my notebook and im getting the same error...ill try to investigate .
[Windows Mobile] af974:
Ok, after the error now i dumped succesfully a Leo Rom in my Notebook with W7,what i did:

In the Extracted Shipped rom folder i leave only the .nbh.

Then i replaced the implantxip.exe with an older version(attached here).
[Windows Mobile] NIKOSXRI:
xip bin is needed?

I built succesfully a rom with the msxipkernel in rom folder without xip.bin.

Is the xip bin needed?
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
no, not needed, only uou need romhdr into rom\nomedevice\romhdr.bin. PRB, only needs it! ;)
[Windows Mobile] utak3r:
Hello mate :)

You ain't trying to dump some cooked rom, don't you? It won't succeed, unfortunately. xidump plays well only with shipped roms. (btw, I was dumping Leo shipped roms several times with EVK - and every time it was ok).
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
maybe he tryed to dump 2.10 TMOUS for hd2, libnb.dll, fails to dump imgfs.bin form nb file, at 1st post new version, only exe: 12.4.6, instead of libnb.dll to dump nb, now uses xidump.exe to dump it, and seems to dump correctly also 2.10 tmous for hd2.

bye!
[Windows Mobile] Alan-B:
Hello Ervirus,

I use your Kitchen since 1 month is perfect great thank you for your work.

It possible to have some info for the best optimization for HD2 set ?

BN: Not yet possible to decompile WM7 ?

@+ Pyrana
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
for hd2, there are some checkboxes, yet presents, but you can also insert reg and provxmls to have the best values, but I cannot help about, btw, if you search into xda, maybe you'll find a lot of infos about.

for wp7, nope, if someone don't post (I don't know also if someone made them!), some new tools, is not possible yet!

and remember, I only created the way, the tools are from other people, like the best, the one, unforgettable "bepe"!!!!!
[Windows Mobile] Alan-B:
Ok thanks, And continue your great work .
[Windows Mobile] elMInStER:
Hi ;)

I try new 12.4.6 to dump 2.10, 3.14 T-Mobile, 3.14 HTC and always have "error on xidump executing.....Exit!!!"

for me it did not help :(

PS.1. (with Leo_S_3.14)

Situation after "error on xidump executing.....Exit!!!" in dump folder:

if i make manual xidump -b os.nb in IMGFS is SYS and OEM folders with packages

PS.2. (with Leo_3.14 from T-Mobile US)

Dump working :D

PS.3. NBHImageTool still not working :(
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
never had problems with dumping.

btw, at 1st post new version 12.4.8, what's new?

when you choice a bmp to became a splash screen, the kitchen automatically check if the format and size is good, if not, automatically modifyes the image, makeing before a backup of it, and adjusts it according to the file "splash.xml"

(I suggest to redump an original rom for your device, becouse there are a lot of libnb.dll, and I've changed in times, so maybe splash.xml, could be different in format!)

bye!
[Windows Mobile] elMInStER:
Dump is working for me for 3.14 from T-Mobile, but i had to change NBHImageTools and libraries to the original 1.2 and add IncludedInNBH = "1" to header.xml, now signing nb file works.

BTW. very good job :D
[Windows Mobile] Nokser:
Hi Ervius

Do you know, how to use nk.exe from Toshiba TG01 in your kitchen.

All working good, but if I try my nk.exe to ROM directory, then platformrebuilder not supported this kernel...

BR

Nokser
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
what's mean??? you have to select if is an original nk.exe from wm 6.5 or 6.1 (deflag real wm 6.5 nk.exe!)

but if the problem is other, I cannot help, you should ask to bepe about!
[Windows Mobile] Nokser:
OK... Thanks

Best Regards
[Windows Mobile] freddx:
maybe this is a silly question but how i can write a created rom with ervius kitchen into a nbh file.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
I don't understand, what you mean, you want sign into nbh file "this rom is created with erviuskitchen"??? is that???
[Windows Mobile] freddx:
Sorry, I have the ervius kitchen 1.8.2 with the freya rom for the touch diamond.

Then I removed the manila packages in the rom. I pressed "Create Rom" and your kitchen created it, but where is the rom?

Sorry, when you didn´t understand me, maybe it was my silly question or my english.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
usually rom created (.nbh file) are stored into release_devicename\ folder, so into release_diamond folder in root folder of kitchen!
[Windows Mobile] HTC_FUZE:
I use 1.8.2 version in the past. Now I tried new one. Download 12.4.8 and unzipped. Delete old MyTools and Tools, delete old erviuskitchen.exe, Rom_infos.ini and www.txt. Then I copy new MyTool, Tools, erviuskitchen.exe and OpenNETCF.Desktop.Communication.dll to ROM directory. However it always ask for Device ID, Chunk and OS id. Device is auto detected as "Raphael". I am not able to key in manually. What is wrong?

I compared old "Tools" with new "Tools", I found a few files are missing in new Tools folder. For example:

htcrt.exe

htcrt_config.ini

htcrt_devices.ini

NBHUtil.exe

NBHUtil.xml

beperom_enabler.exe

........

Are those files needed for Device ID/Chunk/OS ID detecion? If needed, why they are not included in the 12.4.8 zip?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
above of all you need to dump an original ROM of Your device to obtain all infos needed!
[Windows Mobile] + Que PPC:
Ervius!!! you back to revive your Kitchen???? :O

so, hows your marriage? hope everything ok ;)

i will try your new kitchen i never change it, cause it works perfect for my old Hermes ;) thanks a lot and welcome back ;)
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
yes, thanks, all is ok, with my wife!!!! (for now ;) )... heheheh!!!!!

I came back only for some updates, and all seems to works property with restructured kitchen; waiting someone for new tools for wp7..........

see U!
[Windows Mobile] greg17477:
best kitchen

hi ervius,

i have to say i tried some kitchens, but yours never let me down. It produces always good results, where other "eye-candy" kitchens gives me often rubbish results :/ so thank you very much for this :)

now the BUT is coming :D on an older (non-hd2) kitchen the option "xipporterex and rom tools" -> "rom date" worked well, but on this new kitchen the date wont change in the rom, it keeps the old date. Is it working for you? or am i doing something wrong?

I should add, i cook for Leo (HD2).

Today i noticed, the rom date is right in the systeminformation dialog on the Leo, but on the first boot some old date is set. With the old kitchen the first time the device booted, the date, also calendar, was set to the new rom date.

greetz

greg
[Windows Mobile] + Que PPC:
xtrange but nice :p

after doing some tests i can say this:

1.- the kitchen 12.4.8 is almost 2X faster than 1.8.2 its great!!! :D

2.- I made a rom with 1.8.2 and i have 24MB Ram free at fresh cook but with the 12.4.8 it gives me 11 MB free Ram at fresh cook, but something is truth... the rom is awsome... is fats and stabler, what happend? i dont know

Hermes Legacy device

I dont have troubles with the date or Rom version changing it from the XIP using implantxip porterexe or using the TAB ROM info, BTW import builds option ROCKS!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
for less memory, I don't know, platformrebuilder.exe is same (made by bepe!), maybe could depend of your sets on xip "tab" or maybe are utilities used to build roms, like new libnb.dll.....
[Windows Mobile] + Que PPC:
mmmmmmm :rolleyes:

maybe, i will make some more tests for old devices with 64MB ram its hard to have just 13 MB ram

Edit:

WHat is this new PROVXML thing in the new kitchen? i can see that my boot time is really awsome... do you think that all my provxml wont works? that is the thing im experimenting?
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
you can insert and execute provxmls, and if for an unknown problem, all provxml didn't run at 1st boot, you can force theyr execution, inserting all of them (automaticlly) into "config.txt"!

(but force executions of provxml, only if you see that they don't run after flash!)
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
hey, I had an idea.....

you make a rom with old kitchen and make same rom with new kitchen, then zip both "dump" folders, and upload somewhere, and send ,e the links, so I can check and compare the 2 dumps made with ols a nd new kitchen, so I can try to find differences, if exists and maybe verify why in old you have 22 mb free, while in new only 11 mb free ;)

bye!
[Windows Mobile] HD2Owner:
@ervius:

thanks alot for your kitchen updates. highly appreciated. my hd2o roms are based on your kitchen and i really like it.

can you please implement "delete other manila lang files (not permanently - only leave them out during build process)" and "cfc compression"?
[Windows Mobile] miniterror:
hmmm leave out langauge files:-o

wonder how to see what are language files and what arent:p

does it give a speed boost in the rom?
[Windows Mobile] alesscam:
in this mode you can save 5\6 mb in rom ;)
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
cfc compression: open editor and search for manila files, click on one of folders found, it will run cfc-gui, with it you can work (so, compress!!!) on manila files in that folder.....

for exclude manila, I don't know what are them, if someone can suggest.....
[Windows Mobile] HD2Owner:
@ervius:

i already have a small tool (developed by a german dev) from rtt.

the detection method:

search for this strings in all *_manila files (unicode):

"pl-pl"

"pt-br"

"fr-fr"

"fi-fl"

"el-gr"

"pt-pt"

"tr-tr"

"it-it"

"sk-sk"

"es-es"

"es-es_tradnl"

"en-us"

"en-gb"

"cs-cz"

"hu-hu"

"ru-ru"

"sv-se"

"nb-no"

"nl-nl"

"de-de"

"ro-ro"

"da-dk"

"ca-es"

"ar-sa"

"ko-kr"

"zh-cn"

"ja-jp"

"zh-tw"

basically (example en_us):

string search (unicode) for all lang-codes except "en_us" in all *_manila-files (no other filenames/types because some dlls in sense contains some of those strings too).

a temporary filelist should be used to create a list of *_manila files containing any of the above codes except the current language.

this list can be used to exclude the listed files during re-build.

around 1300 files can be removed this way.... this will speed up every rom (i already remove other langs manually and cfc-compress since my x1 days).

before i got this tool from rtt (not very long ago) i manually deleted all other langs with total commander.

i had a conversation with andrewsh. he told me, barin is working on string search engine for his kitchen.

oskitchen already supports both features (cfc and exclude other lang).

in oskitchen, all manila files are collected (copys in temp-dir), cfc-compressed and langs removed before re-building the rom (afaik original ext stays untouched).

afaik if nothing is changed (used/selected manila packages) the kitchen is re-using the compressed ones from temp dir.
