Im liking the new layout during build, and the inclusion of a cancel build button :)

I just have one question:

I Am starting to build 3 different ROMs, AYCE, LITE, LITE_Manila. I know I can use _skip_ and _only_ files, but how would I go about acually using them without having to manually edit the kitchen_build_rom.bat and editing the BUILD field? Is it possible using an auto bat file such as:

erviuskitchen -loadrom tools\romsaved\b4pjs.erv -AYCE

erviuskitchen -loadrom tools\romsaved\b4pjs.erv -LITE
[Windows Mobile] B4PJS:
Got a bug to report with 1.7:

Whenever I build my AYCE ROM using the new 1.7 kitchen, platformrebuilder.exe crashes (specifically imgfsfromdump). I then reverted back to 1.6 whilst keeping the 1.7 tools folder and all was fine. I think it may be the new build display not having enough memory to cope with such a big rom with so many files (my dump folder has 4,593 objects totalling 191 mb!).

Hope you can figure this out as I really like the new display :)
[Windows Mobile] jwzg:
Still waiting for an answer on this one.

I've been getting a few errors in Platform rebuilder too, but I just haven't played with the kitchen too much to know for sure what is causing it.
[Windows Mobile] nhathoa:
Maybe you can look in the file nbhutils.xml in tools folder.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
I don't know, see into nbhutil.xml.....

here:<device name="Hermes" chunksize="64">
<ModelID>HERM***</ModelID>
<CID>11111111</CID>
<Ver>1.00.Hermes</Ver>
<Lang>WWE</Lang>
<Item value="0x100">IPL</Item>
<Item value="0x200">SPL</Item>
<Item value="0x300">Radio</Item>
here:	<Item value="0x400">OS</Item>
<Item value="0x600">Splash</Item>
<Item value="0x601">SubSplash</Item>
<Item value="0x700">ExtROM</Item>
</device>

same values for hermes, and for maybe quite all devices, but if you dump an nbh with nbhutil.exe you can see the values!

bye!

P.S.: strange you have problem with theese values, visualkitchen reads infos into nbhutil.xml (from hermes retrieve other values, 64 for chunksize and 0x400 for imgfs OS start offset!)

bye!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
at 1st post version 1.7 REV 2, maybe solved problem that process contiinues also if platformrebuilder.exe crashes, and have to be close on debug window.

try it and report ;)

bye!!!
[Windows Mobile] jwzg:
Thanks, Ervius. It's quite a treat to see people like you on the board who are taking over. Good work!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
thanks,m but rev 2 is incorrect, stops process after platformrebuilder finish, and doesn't continue with bat execution.....

maybe soon REV 3 with this iusse solved....

bye!
[Windows Mobile] hellonasty:
Same problem here!!!!!

Thanks Ervius
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
no solutions for now.....

use 1.7 and, remember.....

if platformrebuilder give error all is ok, peocesses terminate and you can read real error (failed to copy, failed to write ecc.....), if platformrebuilder crashes.... some problems yet and processes (bat execution) continue until imgfsfromdump.exe crash.....

hopeing to find a good solution also for that! ;)

so, at 1st post back to 1.7 version a little more fixed!!!!!

bye!!!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
could appen strange error on copyng some files....

prefer to redownload fixed 1.7 version at 1st post!!!

(Version updated and bug solved!)
[Windows Mobile] makeveral:
ervius you simply ROX! btw in 1.7Rev2 i tryet the cancel build rom button and it gave an error but nothing important!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
depends ogf when you use it..... but usually it kills the current process, exe or bat.....

btw version 1.7 "revisioned" seems works well, except for , I repeat, platformrebuilder debug error window, in that case, imgfs starts and give error, but the real error depends of platformrebuilder. ;)
[Windows Mobile] anryl:
dont know vista 64 sometimes it crashes prb sometimes its OK somethink with the bat modify as the prb line get changed as well ? :confused:

REM **************** TOOLS\platformrebuilder.exe

if not "%errorlevel%"=="0" goto error
[Windows Mobile] killer8nl:
The new 1.7 isn't working for me. I was using 1.6 for a long time now and never had any problems. I'm cooking fror an sony ericsson xperia (kovsky) with a nativa wm 6.5 aku and the new 23007 sys everything was working fine on 1.6 but I tried updating to 1.7 and every time I cooked a rom it didn't continue after the very first screen. So it was like a bad xip or something but after downgrading to 1.6 everything was fine again. Think there is something wrong with 1.7.
[Windows Mobile] jwzg:
"romhdr not found" error keeps popping up. What am I doing wrong?
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
check if file exsists this file into:

rom\%device%\ folder.

if not copy romhdr.bin into, near os.nb.payload file!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
strange, I've built 23004 rom with 1.7 version, and all worked well...

while 21925 doesn't boot, don't know if depends of 1.7 version, but platformrebuilder.exe is same, and same execution of it in both 1.6 and 1.7 version.....

someone else advises this iusse in 1.7 version???
[Windows Mobile] mondilv:
Thanks ervius!

Just try 1.6 - already 1.7.:)

Could anybody to upload fixed version of 1.7 to normal file-hosting?

To rapidshare, megaupload?
[Windows Mobile] uhery:
that's what happens to me:

tried only 1.7 visualkitchen version ...

1. build: sys 21928 xip 21928

0409 ... works well !

0410 ... does not boot!

2. build: sys 23001 xip 21928

0410 ... works well!

:confused: could be .... lang problem because of the new screens in the 21928/5 build? :confused: ...... but I'll test it again ! :)
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
well.....

can U retry all with 1.6 version, only to confermate, but maybe you are true, lang problems on last builds....

thanks!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
can U upload and post to me in mp your intere kitchen so I can check better???

Here's the log from my build after the dump. Basically, I dumped my Hermes build, changed the dates on the XIP, and built it as an "old style ROM".

I've got another small issue with the kitchen and Add2config.txt. I've tried by myself and with the sample package you suppied a few days ago but can't get it to work : in dump folder, generated config.txt is empty and there's a add2config.txt that obviously shouldn't be there. Anything I'm doing wrong ?

same problem here..vista related??

edit:

Im running windows 7 now, working faster, darn much faster then on vista..but remains to see if it runs well :)
[Windows Mobile] itje:
I just noticed what has caused me to pound my head against the wall :)

When I dump a blackstone/diamond etc rom, I get all structures correct with oem/lang oem/common etc etc

but when I dump a Xperia rom, I dont get structures in neither oem or sys folder. But EXT apps get setup with structures

would be great with any hint on what cause this :)

cheers
[Windows Mobile] Ameet:
Experienced this error long back but then the latest kitchen helped..
[Windows Mobile] itje:
I downloaded the latest files I could find

but...still it dumps blackstone correct, but not x1 roms

Nope same problem as already mentioned before ...

Crashes everytime I use the date picker in xiporterex (till Rev37).

Hi ervius!

i've found a little bug in the last version.

Searching strings with provxml files is not working but checking all files it works.

Also a couple of suggestions:

- It would be nice to add a contextmenu in the listbox with the files that contains a string so for example, if i want to delete language SWE from manila files i search for lang=SWE -> and in the contextmenu there would be an option to delete selected file or all.

- Another suggestion is that i dont want to flash the ROM to my phone everytime i make a new one cos i use the internal flashing method (DIAMIMG.nbh)so i deleted the diamondCustomRUU from the release folder and now it works but at the end it always popup an error. Would be nice to be able to choose if you want to flash directly or saved it as DIAMIMG.nbh

Thanks for all really!
[Windows Mobile] elparra72:
Hi Ervius,

I'tried but nb0 or nbf dont work in NB_Dump. Are you planning to include those kind of ROMs in your tool. I'm trying to adapt some diamond kitchen to HTC Roadster but no luck ;-)

Thanks a lot!

[Windows Mobile] ervius:
hi,

1) solved;

2) inserted suggestion;

3) only have to edit kitchen_build_rom.bat file into \tools folder, and change:

from:

to:

Dear Man, what kind of configurations I have to make before I could use this kitchen tool for Wizard?

I tried to edit the NbhUtil.xml, but seems there's no items for Wizard, what and how should I add configurations that could make this tool works for Wizard.

thanks a lot for your kindly help.
[Windows Mobile] jwzg:
I'm also getting an xip.bin not found error as well. I'll post up my log in a few minutes.
[Windows Mobile] jwzg:
Here are my exact steps to this point:

1) Dump working RUU_Signed.nbh made in Bepe's Hermes kitchen with dark-simpson's ROM tool and -conservative switch on the .nb.

2) The ROM is automatically put into the dump folder in the same folder as the kitchen and a new erviuskitchen.exe and tools are put into the dump folder.

3) I clicked the Save ROM and saved the configuration file as 329.erv

4) I clicked on Create ROM. Below is the result:

All I'm trying to do is rebuild my original ROM.
[Windows Mobile] mac_es:
Hi,

My problem whith 1.7 is in imgsfromdump, I allways get executed prb but when in imgsfromdump it usually crashes whith an error level 255, twice no.

I'm in Vista, I have tried to delete temp to recreate everything and the result is the same.

If I run the command (whith the same temp) manually it works. Also If I use the 1.6 colored version it works ok all the times...
[Windows Mobile] uhery:
... i lose track of the kitchens for a little while :( ... so i can not try 1.6 version!

but ... i solved the lang trouble :) .... i changed "initflashfiles.dat" inside oem folder ... and now the 21928/0410 rom goes on using 1.7 version !!! :cool::cool::cool:
[Windows Mobile] ivanmmj:
You should add a manifest so that the kitchen will automatically ask for vista and 7 users for admin access before running. (As it stands, in 7, I have to manually tell it to run as administrator before it will do it automatically.)
[Windows Mobile] jwzg:
x2

Just inconvenient.
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
ok, try only exe 1.7 rev 3 if works well... added also compatibility with old_style roms....

bye!
[Windows Mobile] jwzg:
Tried the exact same process as before (dump and simply rebuild) and the xip is still not being found and imgfsfromdump is still crashing. However, I'm now getting no platformrebuilder.exe error before that, which is good. I have a feeling this is in the .bat files that the xip is not being copied either from or to the right location.

Ervius, if possible, download my ROM from here and dump it, then immediately try to rebuild it and see if you get the same errors.

Hi Mr Ervius,

I am newbie. Can you guide me with a simple step by step to cook new ROM 6.1 and 6.5 with your new kitchen.

1) How to dump shipped ROM using your kitchen.

2) How to used RAW (00, 01 02 & 03) file inside your kitchen.

3) How to put CAB file into into your kitchen.

4) How to remove 1 package from shipped ROM (lite version)

Did you remove files/modules? Bepe's kitchen allowed me to leave the Kernel debuggers for some reason and the xipporterex does not. I'm trying to get this ROM as close to a factory release as I can (don't ask why). I'll give this folder a whirl and see what happens. Thanks for the troubleshooting, and I'll report a little later.

Edit; BTW, it worked. I'm going to try the -conservative switch and a few other things with ULDR and see where I come out.

HTC Notification Enhancement package wont work when cooked into my rom...

Hello, i am starting play with cooking ROMS. I want cook my second rom righ now. First what i want to is add only some packages for shipped rom for blackstone (version 1.56).

This package what i want add into my rom is called HTC Notification Enhancement. I have this package from Rhodium laster shipped ROM. The thing is that when cook rom with this package when click on title bar then nothing is happen (i removed HTC Large Titlebar from my rom beacuse it is working in very similar way like HTC Notification Enhancement). As i thing i missed some other package which should be added to ROM. My question is which one it is?

I am using last version of Ervius kitchen.

For now i have cooked stock ROM with HTC Menu Enhancement and replaced gwes.exe file/module into from in newer version from Rhoidum ROM and it works fine. But i cant figured out how to make to working HTC Notification Enhancement.

EDIT:

I triend also package from TOPAZ shipped ROM but it does not work too...

Please for help.

EDIT:

I even tried this package with SYS version 21048 from rhodium. What i am doing wrong what HTC Notification wont work in my Blackstone?

EDIT:

Also i tried on Topaz SYS build 21042. Still wont work. I dont have any other ideas how get it to work.

Anybody can help me?

Thank you.

Ok, here you have 1.6 colored version and 1.7 rev3 whith the manifest added
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
visualkitchen 1.7 revision 5 I believe in it ;)

try it at 1st post!!!

bye!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
could appen that too many modules in rom, for old 6.1 NK.EXE on new 6.5 roms, causes non-bootable roms (allways for me, hehehe!!)

so, visualkitchen 1.7revision 6 with modules present on rom counter, and if they are too many, and aku is not real 6.5, it advise you and stop buildig rom, delete or convert some modules into files and retry to build rom ;)

if real aku 6.5, only counts modules into rom!!!

download here:

try it!!!
[Windows Mobile] makeveral:
wow! very nice ervius!
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
U wanna do many things in few time...

imgfs cannot be used, becouse you stop build, and in bat the imgfstonb.exe is still in execution.

for me all works well, waiting the right time from an operation to another, but maybe new style visualkitchen has to have some other modification (like disable "build rom" button until processes are really ended!)
[Windows Mobile] ervius:
ok, revision 7 of version 1.7:

added process killer to kill imgfsfromdump.exe ecc..... if in execution while "cancel "build" ;)

but, see into bat included....

all command (referred to exes) have to be with ".exe"

ie: ..\tools\imgfsfromdump became: ..\tools\imgfsfromdump.exe (add extenctions, so visualkitchen can recognize all them and add to a list to kill eventually ;) )

only romupdateutility have to be without ".exe" extenction.... or could be killed while in progress, IMPORTANT, but if you use my "kitchen_build_rom.bat" included into rar, all goes fine!!!

so, qt 1st post: version 1.7 revision 7, hopeing all will be ok now! ;)

bye!

EDITED:

I think works well now, so: stop to develop it, I'm tired..... really..... :)

bye friend!

Pls. help...

First things first, many thanks for this great piece of tool. It minimizes a lot of manual activity. I used your kitchen and it works fine until the rebuild of ROM os.nb file . ( I don't need the .nbh as I own an Asus device which works on ABIs).

But the issue is that the final 'dump' folder before imgfs creation does not contain '.VM' folder and hence, the imgfs too doesn't have it. Just for your info., the '.VM' folder is present in OEM\%DeviceName%/.VM.... ( It was extracted automatically while dumping a stock rom). I am using the latest verson of your kitchen.

Any suggestions to resolve this issue ?

cheers,
