Cooking My 1st Rom (Experts plzzzz have a look :o)

hey everyone
i'm trying to build my first rom, not sure what i am doing but still trying
i would like to list what i've done, and i would love if Dev's could confirm/correct what i've done.
So this is my status :
** Env: winxp & VMware (linux ubuntu 10.11)
1- Kitchen : dsixda-Android-Kitchen-0.188-0-ge5d2a45
url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
2- Rom : Pre-rooted Stock Gingerbread (3.14.405.1)
url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200261
3- using Kernel Gingercakes0.9cfs_2way_HAVS
url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254272
- extracted current Rom's Kernel (using kitchen), replaced zImage, then re-packed boot.img,
also replaced bcm4329.ko at /system/lib/modules with the one in the Kernel's update zip file.
4- added ext4 support (the Mod was at the rom thread)
- by adding the lib/modules files & the init.d/00ext4 file
5- deodexed both /system/app & /system/framework : using the kitchen menu.
6- added NANO editor : using the kitchen menu.
7- custom bootanimation functionality (/data/local) : using kitchen menu.
8- zipaligned apk files under /system/app : using kitchen menu.
i will continue adding mods and so, but i need someone -please- to confirm or correct my steps
one major thing i am not sure about is that i can use the gingercackes kernel with a bravo rom?
i mean not a ported Rom from Ace.
also there was more than one update package for kernel to use, i picked cfs_2way_HAVS as a test
there were more like SVS and so.. what is the diferences -short words will be good -
any help will be gratfuly appreciated.
thanks.

This isn't building a Rom, this is taking someone else's rooted stock and adding options using dsixda kitchen. There isn't really anything that can go wrong. Children can do it. In fact they do...

OMG that was OUCH
ok i said i am new , don't know if words are really critical this way
build , customize , or adding options ...
i am not claiming it for me, as i mentioned all URLs i used
so i am not stealing anyone's hard work ... right?
i was really happy when i saw a reply to my thread, but really got surprised when i red it.
just like a pull-back
even you did not answer any question ...
thanks .

Sorry, not meant to be a dig. You just select what options you want and select build. If you can press buttons on a keyboard, you're doing it right. It can't be simpler. There is literally no advice to give.

going to bookmark for tonight...finally get some time away to get this puppy going

Thanks PaulOBrien

Thanks Mate...! Will try it out.

I think MCR stands for Modaco Custom Rom, Paul's system on his website.
Should be real close to stock, just a basis for future improvement and kitchen at Modaco

Waiting for some feedbacks. Nice to see you here Paul.

Copying text is not working...if i longpress on text to bring up the clipboard, app force closes. This is happening on all apps. Anyone else facing this? I wiped everything before flashing.

The official 1.29 OTA has arrived in UK finally in in Newcastle, if that helps.

Yeah I'm getting the force close on text copying too.

Updated to 1.29.401.11, also includes copy / paste fix!
P

1.29.401.11 kitchen is now online with a bunch of vanilla options also... i'll be creating a vanilla style prebake shortly together with the MCR.

Thanks for the wonderful kitchen Paul!

[Q] ROM Toolbox Pro Issues

Hello Everyone,
I recently downloaded the "ROM Toolbox Pro" app onto my HTC One V. At first I wasnt sure of all the things you can modify your phone with, but after looking and playing around for a few hours I got the idea. I noticed that you can change your [3G] icon to different colors and so forth for other icons on your phone. When I reboot the phone after applying a new boot logo, and Icon it didnt work at all. My first thought was that maybe you cannot modify anything with the Stock ROM? If anyone can tell me any information about this, that would be wonderful!
Also if I need to switch my ROM to something else, can someone please send me a link to a good ROM for the HTC One V that doesnt have any issues, and the full setup on how to do it? That would be wonderful!
Thanks alot,
WizzyCreator

Boot Animation - Install
I've had problems with getting new fonts on my Samsung Player 5 (ROM: Chip1.5).
Worse, the Boot Animation and Randomizer won't let me change the boot animation any longer. It was working (especially when I had the standalone Boot Animation app). Not sure what happened?
Thanks.

btw, Never use rom toolbox; it does more harm

Try installing Sphongle ROM or Omega ROM. They are quite perfect for everyday use. I've been using sphongle from last 8-9 months. Rom toolbox works perfectly in it.

Same case with me I have deodexed my rom and still cannot change the notification background.
Do you know where the original notification bar background file is located?

s6 and rom toolbox pro
Can't get the galaxy s6 edge to custom reboot with rom tool box pro~
I was able to change the font~
So it does work~

HTC ONE X: Cyanogenmod 10.1 - Tweaks Tricks and Hidden menus

Hey everyone if u are on this forum then you have upgraded to the new cyanogenmod 10.1 custom ROM and you are looking for the best way to improve your experience. :thumbup:
If you are however, you are not a cm 10.1 user here links and instructions on how to do so.
If you want to install cm 10.1 from a stock ROM( Phone fresh out of the box) there are a few things you need to do....
1) Unlock your bootloader.
2) Install custom recovery. (TWRP is highly recommended for HTC one x)
3) Root your device.
Steps 1-3 can be done following this instuctional https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9b-BReM6HF8&feature=youtube_gdata_player
3) And last but not least install cm10.1
Cm 10.1 is only supported best on hboot 1.39 and upwards ahere's an instructional on how to do that http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156686
First of all many of you are wondering what will happen to my beats audio if I update to cm 10.1. There is good news and bad news. Bad news first, beats audio is NOT part of the cm 10.1 firmware. But, the good news is that an alternative to beats audio is available.
To get the new awesome beats v5 simply visit the link below on your android and download. Open up goomanager and click flash ROM search for AwesomeBEATS_v5_Aroma.zip then click order and flash selected and wait for the magic to happen. This may take close to ten minutes so be patient. ( TIP: remember to wipe your caches and when asked for ROM base choose cyanogen mod base )
Awesome beats download - http://db.tt/3iJRQ2KO
NOW FOR THE HIDDEN MENUS AND TRICKS!
Many of you want to access developer options after upgrading but can't find the option. Don't worry because its there.
Simply go to Settings>About Phone> Scroll down to Build Number and tap it repeatedly until u get a count down and then a message saying that your have enabled developer options.
View attachment 2177566
Next are some cool game like features in the settings menu.
In the about phone menu tap Android Version repeatedly until you see this awesome screen.
View attachment 2177578
Then tap and hold the bean and u will be taken to a screen with floating BEANS!! how awesome is that? You can also play around with the beans using your touch screen.
View attachment 2177579
Next, in d same about phone menu, tap CyanogenMod Version repeatedly and you will see the same screen as before but with cm heads. Tap and hold for the same animations.

View attachment 2177597
That's all for now but stay tuned for more Tips and Tweaks added. Post here for any questions and help or add a Tip you would like to share.
This is in no way any of my work. The information was just pieced together and brought to you for knowledge
Thanks for your time and enjoy. :thumbup::thumbup:

Although I feel every young flasher will already know all of this, still a nice effort for a thread

Thanks but I didn't know these things when I started off so I'm just trying to bring more information forward.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app

You are linking to a thread that's about downgrading the hboot of the AT&T version of the HTC One X. In that thread they say: 'S-Off required to proceed.'
Since we aren't able to S-Off the international version of the HTC One X yet, I think the link to that thread is pointless That thread btw also links to files compatible with the AT&T version of the One X, not with the international version.

I'm sorry but I had the Evita in mind. The info will be updated soon. btw I used the same method to upgrade my Evita's boot without s-off

Yes it possible if u have an app which supports a custom boot menu like boot menu or too manager. Or if u have cm 10.1 go to settings>system>power menu and check reboot menu.

Sense 5 Landscape

Landscape for Sense 5
I was really missing landscape mode since Sense 5 came out.
so I started to look around in the launcher to see if I could get landscape working.
After getting it more or less working HTC released Sense 5.6 where I borrowed much of the new landscape code.
This apk is based on the latest sense 5 release (5.4) for the One X with backported code from Sense 5.6 and my own additions.
The latest release for the One has a Prism build with SenseSDK 5.65 and contains the same landscape code as the build I used.
If anyone wants to test, here is the link to the prism.apk and flashable zip
<new release 5/14/2014>
http://db.orangedox.com/cHHxnqIgWVvdmd4Ky1/Prism.apk

To revert to stock you can flash this base version

Still no viperX version.

Very nice. Breaks a lot of ViperX stuff though (as was to be expected), I hope they decide to incorporate this 'tweak' in their ROM. I really miss landscape home screen/lockscreen.
Good job, thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
I had already PM'd Rich but no reply yet.
Since I am on ViperX also I will merge the viperX stuff.
If it is ok with them I will publish this version also.

Fixed one small bug preventing the addition of apps to the home screen.

If you need a tester (for the viperx stuff) i'd be happy to volunteer

Same with me on ARHD 31.3
I have lyapota's modpack 7.7 and Sense Toolbox 2.3 installed. Upon restart HTC Sense stops working.

I am at home now, I have become I'll and my laptop is at work. So no access to my project...
I have just replaced the apk file with the last one I build.
But the flashable zip is not replaced.
Only thing that is changed is that I finalized the enable rotation code to make it easier to implement it in a custom menu.
I have no problem that this mod is included in other Rom,s or modpacks.
I'll be happy for the credits.

You can use it, that is why I shared it here.
I know that laptoya also modifies the underlying framework, so I think that some changes he did in his prism must be ported.
I have used the latest official sense build from HTC with the fixes for disappearing icons.
Does logcat show where prism crashes?
