right now I have wiped my data again, cleared storage, and installed unrevoked again. It now says install from sdcard complete. What do I try from here??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimdog420:
Need to choose zip to install to sd card

Then navigate to the rom zip that you downloaded/choose

That should load you up, sounds like your rooted and now just need to flash your rom of choice. Good luck

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randyreed1971:
ok I wiped date, wiped dalvick, cleared storage. I then ran unrevoked. I then went to the sd card to unzip my ROM and it wasnt there! So I pulled the battery, I pulled the SD card and inserted another card which I installed the PC36img.zip on. I did a hard reset and it booted into HBoot. I then went into recovery and I then went to install zip from SD card. I choose the PC36img and then it did something really fast and I couldnt read what it said. I did see clockworkmod at the top. I then rebooted and now the phone goes to the HTC EVO 4G screen for about 1 minute then reboots and does it over and over. Im stuck and I dont know what to do.......
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goat78:
It sounds to me like you need to zip a rom to your phone.

Put a copy of the zip of your rom of choice onto your desktop and plug your phone into the computer.

Boot your phone into hboot. (volume down + power)

Choose recovery

When you are booted into recovery choose usb-toggle option.

Your phone should then show up as a storage device and you should then copy your zip to the sd card.

toggle usb off

Wipe data, cache, and dalvik-cache

Flash zip

Reboot

The initial boot might be a bit long, but your phone should be up and running. If so you should perform a backup, and then save that onto your computer to avoid loss if anything should go wrong.

*you don't need to keep flashing the pc36.img file, and you don't need to keep running unrevoked. you should already be in root with nand unlocked, so just flash a new rom like Myn's or Fresh or whatever you want

Can you help me find a program to control internet access??

I have no problems with wifi access, but when it's 3G, I have a limit of 100MB per month (my choice of course, but I want to keep it cheapest as possible :D)

I don't have wifi connected permanently, but I want to control the amount of traffic to know my limit.

I Know that for android are several programs... and for windows mobile??? Already made a fast search on google but nothing....

A little bit late, but.... Merry Xmas to all :)

I'm going to test now this datacontroller.

Thanks people for the sugestions.
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] Miguelpc:
hazhysalon, this app you posted is not what I need. Thanks, but it's not what I'm looking for.

I want a app to control the amount of traffic and not the access to internet.

At the moment, the spb is what is closer from what I want. It's not cheap, but we can not have everything.... Or can we? :)

Today I went to computer center and tested.

Finally,I got a full working custom rom.

Note:Now,I don't have computer at home.

My dad shifted the computer to his room(another house) due to my final year exam.

Now explaining all these steps with my remembered things at center.

Sorry,I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong.

Synopsis:

1.Making a Kitchen

2.Create a Stock Base Rom

3.Making Custom Rom

4.Finished

1.Making a Kitchen:

You must install a Kitchen properly.
To do,
Download a dsixda kitchen from Chef Central Forum.
Install it properly according to that post.

Short synopsis for windows:
1.Download all necessary things.
2.Install Java.
3.Then install cygwin.
4.Copy the kitchen to home folder.

Now your kitchen ready.

Test the kitchen by running it.
Type ''./menu'' in cygwin
It will show Main Menu.

Don't go to next step until you prepare Kitchen.

2.Create a Stock Base Rom:

From this stock base rom we can made a custom rom.

First reinstall a Android 2.1.
Then root it.
Install a XRecovery.
Then backup it.
Now you will get system.img in backup folder.

Then copy the system.img to your kitchen folder "original_update"

In new version of kitchen you don't have to create fake file.Skip next step.It will automatically created.
Make a fake file called "boot.img"(empty file).

Now Run a kitchen by typing in the cygwin

./menu

You will get a main menu.(if you installed properly)

Choose option 1 and press enter.
Again press Enter.(now your system.img will extract)

It will take above 5min to extract.

At last you will get a question asking ''you want see the rom details'' for that press n(No). Bcoz we don't have boot.img.

Then it return to main menu.

Now minimise the cygwin.
Then you will get working folder in your kitchen.

Stock base rom created successfully.
Backup this base rom.
It will useful for future Re-use.

3.Making custom rom

From Stock base rom modifiy what you want in your system folder like removing unwanted apps,add new theme,root option,etc...

4.Making update.zip

Maximise the cygwin and choose option 99.

Your rom will be created and signed in output_zip folder.

Installing Rom using Xrecovery.

1.Copy the zip to sdcard(rename it to update.zip)

2.Go to Xrecovery.

3.Factory reset(Full Wipe)

4.Then install update.zip

Hope this you can understand and work.

All the best.

Thanks for this great tutorial! Has anybody actually tried it yet? I'm not home atm and can't try it.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:
I think Surely this will work on mini also.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Biodegradable:
confirmed working?? anyone?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:
I have working rom but no computer to upload.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Amazing_Antony:
Nice one, I set up the kitchen and did the backup thing a couple of days ago but got stuck at the boot part... Now you have explained that part I will give it another go tonight... If it works ill upload the results and let you lot know tonight... Thanks!!!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Biodegradable:
ill wait for your working rom.. :D suddenly i got excited :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] galaningenieros:
I wonder what is the difference betwen this custom rom and those you get backing up your rom?? I understood that you need a rom to modify apps in /system...

Please explain the differnce.:confused:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:
We can't take system directly from the device.

So from backuping we can get system.

Then modify what you want in the system like removing unwanted apps,adding new theme,etc....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Biodegradable:
typo error on the first part making the kitchen in checking the menu of kitchen instead of "/.menu" type or use "./menu"..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:
Sorry,I made mistake.

It should "./menu".
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
Nice tutorial mate.

Confirmed to work properly, i made a small custom test rom and it is working flawlessly.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] AussieWolfie:
awesome i am going to try this out and see what i can create. lets see if we can get a x10 mini pro rom up and running
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Biodegradable:
can i skip this step here? can i use my old rom just want to add/edit something..??
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:
First time we want system.

Then we can use the previous one.

Now you can skip those steps.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Skaldinho:
Ok, i've got to step with removing apps... Problem is, that i have App2SD and those apps which are stored at card are not there (in working folder). Therefore it seems that if i will give that update.zip to someone, he will be missing some apps won't he? Or are they somewhere and i am just blind?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kurotany:
question on system.img

could i use a system.img file converted from system.sin decrypted from update files for this tutorial? :confused:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:
@kurotany

You can try that.

Bcoz I did not tried that.

I think it will work.

@Skaldinho

You can't get the installed app from app2sd.

You can install some app to your rom by adding apk to /system/app
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jonthe838:
Would it be possbile for a dev to create a Vanilla eclair / Vanilla Froyo rom with this guide? cheers
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:

Then we install it through custom.zip

What do you mean by customization? I meant customizing my system files a.k.a removed apps, different bootanimation, fonts etc. I haven't deal with update scripts yet.:)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dsixda:
Hi guys!

Good to know my kitchen is working with the 'fake' boot.img method ;-)

I'll try to update it this week so that it automatically adds a dummy boot.img if you only include a system.img but no boot.img. So when it builds the ROM it will remove the boot.img automatically for you.

No, it should work fine on C drive. To the guy with the issues running "./menu": do an "ls" on the current folder to ensure 'menu' file is there first.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] svprm:
Thanks dsixda for your update.

It will helpful for mini/pro user.

I don't know whether my guide is good or bad.

If you like it tell to mod to make it sticky.

It will helpful for new user.

hey when i create any update.zip by pressing 99 it adds 'symlink toolbox SYSTEM:bin/reboot' line to update-script! and as i m just making an addon update.. i don't have bin folder.. and no reboot too.. so when i update it says line no.: failed to symlink..!! so i can't create any update zip or i can't boot..!! any solution?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] owain94:
open the update-script file and just remove the line save it and flash your update
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dsixda:
I'll fix this in next update, if you are not including /system/bin/toolbox. However, the kitchen shouldn't really be used for making "add-on" updates. Things may go wrong.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] newtron_b1:
This thing didn't worked... I tried that also but it says install completed and does nothing... its stuck at SE logo...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dsixda:
What are you trying to flash? You are saying it's an add-on and not a ROM ... The kitchen is for building ROMs.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] newtron_b1:
I hav only app and framework in system folder.. I just want to flash those things...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dsixda:
So in that case you are not flashing an actual ROM. The update-script formats the system partition. You'll need to replace that command with a delete_recursive of the framework and app folder. However you may still have problems depending on the contents of the update-script. This task of yours shouldn't be relying on a kitchen.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] dsixda:
You mean " E:can't chown/mod /system"? That means your ROM doesn't have a system folder.

where did you install cygwin

when you installed it on C:

then is the home folder in

C:/cygwin/home

wenn you open cygwin

at first you have to change your direction

aslo wehn you cygwin folder is on c:

you type

cd C:/cygwin/home/(type here the name of the kitchen)

then you can start the script with

./menu

2.In anycase is it required for me to make a backup in xrecovery to get system.img or can i used to .zip file provided by the developers?
