[Q] cooking my personal rom - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

Hi,
I use android from 2 years and now I'd want to start to understand how to cook rom.
In beginning I'd want to try to start from a stock rom and apply to it some personal apps changes.
I have a galaxy gio and galaxy s2.
Could someone tell me if exist a guide or tell me what software needs for cook my rom?
Sorry foe my bad english

there are no guides
but if you use like cm7 as base then its simple
but if you extract the odin official firmware .tar
find the system.rfs
extract it
make an meta inf
a
dd boot.img
done

Before any rom cooking i personally think is best to learn how to backup you're installed rom. I gues adb program will help ore a nice nandroid backup from cwrecovery.

[Nandroid backup] Deodexed 2.3.6 only for all 2.3.6... Also Italian added...

I've done a deodexed rom of you original 2.3.6, I've added also italian language and removed a lot of stuff...
I think that it is more fast than original and it will be a starter rom...
Now you can edit all motorola files inside...
Do you want?
It's a nandroid backup... I really don't know how convert a nandroid backup into a zip file flashable in clockworkmod...

is there any reason for you to enhance verizon 2.3.4 if we have working 2.3.6 made for european devices [why bother with android 2.3.4 if same effort could be put in 2.3.6? -> then we'd enjoy german 2.3.6. for example =) ]
do you plan to do such an update for 2.3.6? especially becuase of having root for 2.3.6 instead of 2.3.4! [or are your custom roms prerooted?]
best regards li8w8
We have a lot of battery issues with your rom...
I can't extract correctly you kernel and so we have this issue...
I'm sorry...

[GUIDE] dsixda's Android Kitchen - Now supports GS3 SGH-I747 (Windows/Linux/Mac)

dsixda's Android Kitchen - Now for Samsung Galaxy SIII SGH-I747
Compatible with Windows (Cygwin) / Linux / Mac OS X
The following is a guide to assist you with creating your own Samsung Galaxy SIII SGH-I747(M) (AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus) custom ROMs with the kitchen. This is NOT a guide to help you become Cyanogen or do fancy things with AOSP, but it may be your springboard to bigger things in the future.
Some of you already know about the Android Kitchen. It is a project I started on back in February 2010 to help newbies create their own custom ROMs and learn more about Android. As of the latest versions, you can now create your own Galaxy S3 I747 ROMs with the kitchen.
I have already posted an equivalent thread for the T-Mobile SGH-T999 Galaxy SIII, so no need for redundancy. The same steps will work for your device:

Since the above link is for SGH-T999 discussion only, please post all SGH-I747 talk in the thread right here. Enjoy!

Nice, will check this out

I've been waiting for something like this for our phones. Thanks for your hard work, the time and effort in creating something like this is very much appreciated. :good:
Yea this android kitchen is awesome!!! I wasted no time trying it out, and its really straight forward too. Thanks again dsixda!
Oh yea!? Thems fightin words....
Thanks dsixda. Will be looking into your kitchen!
White Hot! GS3.
Nice! I have been using older versions of the kitchen on my GS3 to deodex with minimal issues. Going to update right away. Thanks Dsixda!
Thanks dsixda I have been using kitchen since the note even though it wasn't supported with 0 problems glad to see you are supporting the s3 even though I never had problems with it

dsixda: Thank you for such a great tool. I've written my share of scripts so I can definitely appreciate how much work something of this size has in it. I've used your kitchen for de-odexing pretty much every ROM I've built.
About that, does API 16 work with the kitchen now? Just curious.

Hmm not sure, since the latest smali tools were released in September
your the Man Dsixda!!
Sorry of being off topic
Hi Dsixda
I'm a big fan of your work and I'm using your kitchen in my own custom roms
I don't whether you heard about this or not Qube 2 and me managed to port HTC one X rom to international S III. we still struggling with some stability issues along with ril issues as well.
Now I've got At&t variant of S III which has exact similar hardware of At&t HTC one XL. intially I thought porting would be easier as both has the same hardware but the rom won't boot and I frankly don't know why !!
I'm wondering if such a thing gets you interested to help me ?!
Now I'm really sorry to post this here and to use this thread for off topic subject.
Thanks and really glad to have you here.
This is awesome!! Thanks so much for all you do.

Thanks for the comments. Na, I don't know anything about porting, and I'd rather not spend more time sitting at a computer, especially considering my health.
BIG thanks. Now to remember how to use the kitchen again…
Hi !
Great works !! Thanks !
I try it with a Stock ROM (Last Bell), and when I make the option 9 (Checkup), I have this error in the list:
>> ERROR: wiperiface_v02.so not found in working folder
Can I skip this error or how to fix it ?
Thanks !!
??
Also, someone have a good place to start to add MOD, THEMES, SOUND, etc.. to our custom ROM we make with this kitchen ?
Thanks !
Ok, it’s been a while since I used the kitchen. For my project, I’m using a stock rooted rom (UCALG1). I was hoping to use a nandroid backup from CWM. I use to do this quite often for the Nexus One. On the SG3, the nandroid backup files for the system are –
system.ext4.tar
system.ext4.tar.a
system.ext4.tar.b
The “a” & “b” have file size (different sizes) and the system.ext4.tar is empty.
There is only one boot.img file.
Looks like I can rename system.ext4.tar.a file and drop “a” and that will be the valid file to use. I’ve gone thru most of the steps, just wondering if anyone done this on a nandroid backup?

Status 0 error flashing.
So when I use the G1 ODIN rom base with the only changes being deodexing and rooting, I get a status 0 error on the flash.
I'm using the updater-script that the kitchen is making, to no avail.
Has anyone else come across this? If so - how did you fix it?
I am convinced that the updater script is the issue, there is some symatical issue in there - mounting something wrong I am not sure, though I could be wrong - often am.
I will try this weekend with a captivate stock rom and my cappy, but the target is the AT&T GS3.
dsixda - great work I love it.
Hi dsixda,
I’m using att’s new JB rom from mrRobinson in your kitchen. I mainly added some items in the /data/app section. When I flash the rom, I receive the following error message -
Status 0 – Installation aborted. Can’t partition non-vfat: datamedia. Can’t partition unsafe device: /dev/blockmmcblkpl. Can’t format unknown volume: /emmc
This has actually has been happening on all the stock ICS roms I have attempted to create in the kitchen. Must be something simple I’m doing wrong in the SG3. Never had an issue creating roms for the SG2.

[Q] How to make a "starter stock 2.3.6 rom"

hello all,
I want to make my own custom rom based on the stock 2.3.6.
I've read some tutorials about that but I don't get any informations on how to get a base to work with (a flashable zip with all the rom's files?).
So do I have to flash a original rom to my gio and then backup all the files with some software or something else?
I can try to compile it if it's really necessary but I would be glad if I can avoid it.
I don't want to start with a existing all customised rom like enhanced236, I would like to start from a fresh and clean rom and then share it with the gio communty.
Thanks a lot for your help.
I found something about dsixda.
I'm on the right track?
thanks.
on the right track, but just a note: dsixdsa kitchen is made for HTC, and its a tool, you wont really learn much from it, and it may not be fully compitable

If you don't want to build from source your gonna have to know how to edit apks n Smali. Your gonna need apktool, smali, & baksmali.
If you want base it off the stock rom just flash the stock rom n make a backup in recovery. You'll need the system folder from that backup.

Can some one explain me clearely how to get a flashable stock rom zip or give me a link to some good tutorial working for the Gio?
sorry but I can't find something clear about all that.
I've spent a day trying to figure out how to do that but I was not able to make a single working zip
dsixda clearly doesn't work for the gio or I'm missing something.
I only need someone to put me on good track to start. I'm only loosing time trying and testing a lot of not so complete tutorial.
thanks a lot

[Q] Bloatware Remove with Rom Cleaner or TrulyClean Script

Hello,
I can't find it by search but perhaps someone can give me a link to a one of the above mentiones scripts with files for the Samsung Galaxy Ace II (mine is i8160p). I use stock rom but want to delete the bloatware. This seem to be very simple especially with Rom Cleaner.
I hope that Rom Cleaner can run with temporarly CWM that I use?
Also helpfull will be a list of bloatware from our Rom (version 4.1.2, XXMG2) with explanations for what use the things are.
Sorry for my english. It's forty years ago I learned it.
You can try minimal by judas77 but follow guide to use any rom on GT-I8160P. Something to do with tee folder(sorry i dont know where it is, hopefully i8160p users view this thread)

Thanks, very interesting page and it will help a bit. But i don't want another rom (or flash again the next time) because I've needed a whole day to bring all apps, widgets and so on back to my phone. Also I've backed up the system (and also the TEE dir) with CWM so I can bring back everything easily. But a script with all bloatware (and even Backup like Rom Cleaner) will be helpfull now and in future.
