[TG01 General] drkdeath5000:
Sorry i know im a pain but this is driving me insane lol !! so lets say im using the miro5 rom as my base and i want to install ONLY the sense packages to this what are the basic steps ?

Heres what im doing:

1. copy miro5 rom to BASE folder, rename and dump with dump.bat found in root of kitchen

2. copy all sense packages (im using these ones here but have also tried directly copying the sense packages from lee's rom) to the SYS folder. Im wondering do i even have all the sense files, which files should i need as a bare minimum for sense - what about the LEO package files are these needed (i've tried with and without) ?

3. edit initflashfiles.dat to include sense programs locations, this is what im adding

4. run build no XIP port_no auto.bat found in the kitchen root, once buildos pops up click green arrow and wait for it to process. Once it says done in bottom left close build os and wait for rom to be made

5. finally flash rom to my phone

Seems odd that i've flashed so many times and havent got sense working once, i must have flashed 30 times to my phone this weekend !! So if you guys could atleast confirm the above is correct.

Will look on ppcgeek, mobileunderground, etc tomorrow but really i dont even know what im looking for which is my main problem. I've searched xda but havent found any guide related to cooking sense packages. Surely even the mighty miro used a tutorial to learn this stuff ? I mean at the rate im going with this guess work its going to be years before i manage to cook sense. With the right info eventually i will learn this stuff just like i do everything and i never give up :-).

Thanks again miro and lee for the help, i feel blessed to have two both excellent cooks giving me advice :D.

p.s. im using lvy's kitchen with leestons .bat mod
