TPC-Joshkoss WM 6.1 21046 complete kitchen with instructions

Part One---COOKING YOUR BASIC ROM

1--Download TPC-Joshkoss 6.1 21046 kitchen HERE

2--extract kitchen to your root drive(ex. C:/kitchen)

3--inside you will see some folders and some .bat files...will look like this

notice the folders highlighted in yellow...those are where all your ROM files are located

SYS= all your main system files, microsolft office, welcome center, etc.

ROM= your xip structure

OEM= some apps inside but mostly device specific drivers ect.

EXT= folder where pretty much all of your applications, utilities, games, manilla, etc. will be stored in ext rom pkgs

4--some advice on editing these folders....leave your SYS and ROM folder alone unless you are an advance user(noobs do not touch). you may add packages to your OEM folder(not this time later) but do not delete any of the files that are in there now. you may also add or delete packages in EXT folder as well, but in both cases files must be in correct format(another lesson)

5--notice the file build_rom.bat in kitchen folder....this is the file you will run to create you rom :) this is a batch file that tells the other tools in kitchen what to do. if you are using windows vista(maybe even xp) you need to run this file from command line. the easiest way to do this is to go to main kitchen folder in room kitchen(ex. c:/kitchen), hold down the "shift" key and right click on it....you will see the option "open command window here". click on that and a black box will pop up with this text in it... C:/TPC_KITCHEN_6.120146. after this you need to enter this text build_rom.bat this tells windows to open your kitchen(see pic)

6--so whatta ya say we go ahead and cook our first rom :D so you have completed the above steps, now press enter...kitchen screen will pop up and will say press any key continue, do that and you will see this

for now we will just worry about one of two options....LZX or XPR compression. we will save UPX for a later lesson as all base files in EXT folder are already compressed. if you press option "1" your ROM will be compressed with LZX algorithm, which will give you 10-15% more free storage :) but takes longer to cook and is optional. if you press option "2" your rom will be compressed with XPR compression, this is the default compression most ROMS are cooked with. choose whichever option you want and press enter.....YOUR ROM IS NOW COOKING :D

7--let kitchen cook untill all steps are completed then open your kitchen folder and go to the FLASH folder and open it up.....you will see this

CONGRATULATIONS.....YOU HAVE JUST COOKED YOUR FIRST ROM! :)

hopefully you have flashed a rom before you are trying to cook one so you know what to do from here....click on KaiserCustomRUU.exe and follow instructions to flash your new rom.

Part Two--CUSTOMIZING YOUR BASIC ROM WITH EXT PKGS

note--there are two ways you can add pkgs to your rom, either use some that are already made or you can create your own with tools...this section is for using EXT pkgs that have already been made.

1--go to THIS link and you will see some files i have uploaded for the EXT packages, download both packages and save on your pc/extract where ever is convient for you. we will use iolite ext packages folder for example in this lesson.

2--open iolite_external_packages folder and you will see another folder inside named the same thing, click on that folder and you will see a huge list of files...these are all EXT packages from iolite dump will look like this

3--now go to your kitchen folder and click on EXT folder....you will see one folder inside...BASE, open this folder and it will look like this(see pic)....this is where your new EXT pkgs from iolite dump will be placed

note--i like to set folders side by side on my desktop and compare what packages i have in my current kitchen folder with new packages in iolite folder and decide which ones i want to replace/delete(see pic)

4--now for the fun part :D after you have decided which packages you want to add to your rom from the iolite folder, right click on one and click on "copy". now go to your kitchen "base" folder and right click and then click "paste"....its that simple! you have now added a new pkg to your ROM

5--THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT...if you try this and your kitchen crashes when trying to cook, then the structures of your files are wrong. ALL FILES IN EXT FOLDER MUST HAVE THIS STRUCTURE.....EXT/BASE/YOUREXTPKGS ....OR YOUR KITCHEN WILL CRASH.

6--now cook your rom again and experiment with different pkgs/configurations till you find the one that fits you the best....then start enjoying your new ROM!
