ROM Building for Dummies (i900) using SYOK

[Guest Broda]

Hi guys, it´s me one more time :)

1 - Using syakr, I removed the Samsung Sample and Ringtones

I have add one personal MP3 file inside the \OEM\OEMApp, but the file did not appers to me to set as ringtone in \settings\personal\sounds & notifications\notifications -> event: Phone Incoming call

My personal Mp3 file appears to all other events, like Messaging: New Text Message, Reminders, MMS Message etc...why ? Just does not appear in Phone Incoming call

Tell me if I am right

Inside the \OEM\OEMApp I need to open in my computer with Notepad the file 1aa5aeea-3129-45d1-94a6-0b3df2ee511b.rgu and edit this step here...

"Category"="InCall"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds]

"Ringtones"=multi_sz:"Samsung Tune .mp3","Classic Bell .mp3",

"Serene tone2 .mp3","Millenium .mp3",

"Gliter tone .mp3",

"Charming Intro tone .mp3","Tumble Tone .mp3",

"Chiming tone .mp3","Spanish Guitar .mp3",

"Sunny day .mp3","Techno dance .mp3",

"Vivid street .mp3","Maze of city .mp3",

"Highway 101 .mp3","City light .mp3",

"Bugs' song .mp3","All Techie .mp3",

"1960's .mp3","Look Back .mp3","Wind tone .mp3"

So, remove everything and add only my personal mp3 ?

2- Using syakr I removed the TV Out, and the link on Start Menu\Programs desapear, but still/remains a TV Out icon in \settings\System

How to remove this TV Out ícon or this icon have the same problem with DiVx Registration icon ?

@ ringtones...

you can have them stored on your storage card and then just copy them after the flash...

I personally didn't try to put them into my cooked ROM but I've read somewhere that they must be in some specific folder...

take a look around the forum...probably in this thread...or 6.5 kitchen thread...

@ TV out...

check the tasks from Syakr (XML files for each task)...then try to locate all the files manually...maybe the location changed since the Syakr was updated...in these tasks you can find folders and files needed for removal of an app...

[Guest Krazy Radd]

Hi again,

I took the time to download all the Apps from the "Original Samsung Application Thread"...

(the ones that were still available for download)

Then I unpacked them all with Package Creator 2.7 in their folders so that I can make a list

of all the files that Apps have in the ROM so that they could be removed manually...

The result is the following list I made in .PDF and .DOC format and it is intended for all of

you who would like to cook a ROM and have trouble locating all the files that need to be

removed before cooking a nice ROM...

I hope you'll find it useful and may it help you to cook better ROMs...

A list in .PDF format

A list in .DOC format

Thanx mario.omnia & for your time to make that list.

This will help me a lot, bro. :)

1. For Q1: Try to use RecMod.exe located inside the tools folder in your kitchen directory by dragging the modules in it to create the origenal file of the module name (Ex: you have ****.dll, ****.exe, ****.cpl, ****.rgu or ****.mui folders, these folders with the mentioned extesions should be exist in the PHM folder, then you have to drag & drop the module (folder with extesion) each one separateley to the RecMode.exe file & then you'll find the origenal file created inside the modue it self to be placed in the PHM folder at the same location it's module was.
   
2. For Q2: i don't know actually.
   
3. For Q3: Tow options: either to use the RecMod.exe way or to replace the files you have as the old files related to the wm file explorer.

Dear laden: Try to assemble the exe file using I900Executer.exe (Pakko's tool) which will do the job instead of the CMD pronpt.

Assemble the exe file using the PDA.Bin. Eboot.NB0, Customer.CSC & Phone.Bin, if you don't want to incluye the phone part don't add the phone.Bin file.

Dear Broda: Please download the below it will help you to create your rom with the resco explorer & photo viewer. (Packages already created just copy them into the oem folder & enjoy.

Hi everyone!

First I want to say thanks for this great guide, second my issue is that when I run SYAKR to remove what i need I tick the apps that I want to remove, but what I don't understan is what do I do when I am finshed with ticking the apps that I want too remove? I tried once and the Rom flashed my phone and everything is working but those apps that I ticked are still there.

Thanks!

You need to click run scripts... Another window will open and you'll get an error log at the end (in the base of the kitchen).

Good luck

[Guest azoo]

Thanks for your reply!

I did that and I think it worked, will flash later with the new Rom.

Thanks again!

No problems!!!

Lycka till :)

[Guest mazeli]

is the .net framework 2.0 really necessary? because i tried to install it on my fresh installed windows 7 but it failed because of an error during installation???

[Guest azoo]

No problems!!!

Lycka till :)

Tack!

It worked perfect!

Another question, I builded my Rom from an official Nordic Rom, my question is Can I somehow choose the language for my Rom? Because the Nordic Rom should include Swedish and I would like to have Swedish as the Rom language.

And I tried to convert a cab file to pkg using cab2kpg, I got a folder with some files in...How do I use this to integrate with my Rom?

I didn't try it before but you can give it a try, as long as the eboot..nbo is working you can revert back to any rom

If you read here: http://www.modaco.com/content-page/288531/...tchen/page/340/

There are quite a few discusssions about changing Languages on roms.. (give or take 1-2 pages)... Never done it myself though...

Would you be able to upload the Nordic rom?? Been looking for one of those but can't find one anywhere.. Would appreciate it!!

Thanks

[Guest DeLiBoRaN]

sector once many many thanks

please your presentation atached video expression. very important for me.

thank you soo much and sorry for my bad english...

[Guest wynaut]

Firstly, thanks to all the helpful cooks here who are willing to share their knowledge.

I've been reading the guides here, and feel I'm ready to cook something. I downloaded an official update rom, extracted the update.exe out, and dragged it to ExtractROM_exe. However, I got some error and was unable to proceed.

Hope someone can help me out on this.

Many Thanks!

EDIT: I've tried and succeeded in building a rom using Vistang's Visual Kitchen. Tks anyway. BTW, when building the updater exe (last step) do you all usually include all the parts? e.g. phone.bin?

Edited November 27, 2009 by wynaut

[Guest holdz]

Thanks Shokka for the great guide!

Not sure if this is a issue, but every time I seem to extract the OEMApps folder from DXID1, I only seem to be left with about 135 files extracted and around 500 after showing hidden files. Is this normal, as the folder before extraction has over 1300 files inside.

[Guest Julian1984]

Is any update to files in the rar ? (Just the mercurial update still don't work...)

Thanks!

[Guest aguditu]

it works also whit a coocked rom ???
