vivi Kitchen for ASUS P525 : A simple Kitchen ever , modified from Scoter Kitchen.

vivi ROM Kitchen for ASUS P525
Mainly modified from Scoter Kitchen​
Introduction
I've made this ASUS P525 ROM Kitchen for ASUS P525 because I think someone can make it,but no one makes it till now. So I made it myself and share.
Though it is not the best and complex Kitchen with many features but I'm sure it is the good first step for us.
The main aim of this ROM Kitchen is easy using, so this ROM Kitchen is only one click and follow the screen.
You will have a new ROM for ASUS P525 at ease.
Aims
1.For easy modifying private ROM.
2.For helping new user to easy start cooking ROM.
3.For sharing OEM Packages.
4.For someone makes it better.
Let's see
Before using it just let us understand in the same way as follows.
1.This ROM Kitchen is made for using with ASUS P525 only,but it can be used with any other device if modified a little.
2.This ROM Kitchen is modified mainly from Scoter Kitchen.
3.The commands modified from DoubleOFour ROM Kitchen , edhaas ROM Packer Kitchen and some parts from Excel @AsusMobile.ru
Credits should give to them , not me.
Tools use
1.Tools in Scoter Kitchen included bepe package tools and mamaich tools.
2.P525ROMTool from Ingvarr.
Ingredients
There are 3 parts.
1.Program Part : The Kitchen itself.
vivi.exe
2.ROM Part.
3.OEM Part.
Download
You have to download all 2 of these and Base ROM supplied in Packages.
1. The Kitchen in executable file vivi.exe
http://www.zshare.net/download/398685039d2949/
2. OEM Packages
http://www.zshare.net/download/397176124ce74d/
You can find other OEM Packages or create your OEM Packages by looking at this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303195
Base ROMs
1.OLD :
Alex UltraLite 2
SYS and OEM from Alex
{This is Alex ROM (added Powerpoint and WLM files) in packages not ROMGalaxy.NB0.}
http://www.zshare.net/download/3987487fd85cf9/
2.NEW : Add 10 Oct 2007 :
SYS and OEM from Alex,plus settings pages from official ROM. !!!NEW!!!
Add files and settings from official back into Packages.
This packages of Base ROM will create official like unofficial WM6 ROM for your ASUS P525,since I add back official 3 settings pages from official ROM,include official system tray icons.
http://www.zshare.net/download/41190946d9bc4b/
How to cook
1. Place vivi.exe from download 1 in Root of C: and execute it.
You will see a new folder named vivi , this is your Kitchen.
2. Enter Kitchen , replace OEM and SYS folders with OEM and SYS folders from Base ROM provided from download 2.
3. In ROM folder , replace ROMGalaxy.NB0 (0 KB) with any ROMGalaxy.NB0 you want its size.
eg. if you want to build a new ROM with a huge size, place official CHS or Russian ROMGalaxy.NB0 here.
Or if you want small size ROM , place Alex UltraLite ROMGalaxy.NB0 here.
I think you guys already have ROMGalaxy.NB0 so no need to support this file.
4. Place OEM Packages you choose from download 3 in OEM folder.
5. Click Start.cmd.
6. Follow on screen.
That's all.

woowww...cooool

Vivi,
Congrats! Finally I can see ROM Kitchen for P525 and now everybody can cook their own ROM
Btw, what do you mean by putting base ROM into OEM and SYS folder? Did you mean Romgalaxy.nb0?
I've put romgalaxy.nb0 into ROM folders and BOS failed to execute.
Cheers,
vibranze

No, Vibranze.
You have to download Base ROM I provided here.
http://www.zshare.net/download/3987487fd85cf9/
It is not NB0 but splitted in 3 Package folders.
ROM , SYS and OEM.
Place them in the corresponding place in Kitchen.
Images attached.

And you have to place your old ROMGalaxy.NB0 in ROM folder.
This is to use as template for new ROM only.

Vibranze,
Check your PM.

Hi Vivi,
Thanks for all your work. Is it possible for you to make a similar ROM kitchen for the HP iPAQ HX4700?
bub

Thanks for your work ... once again

Vivi, congrate. Glad to see someone finally take this job over.

Great work vivi.
Now maybe it's possible to bulid TouchFlo in P525? If anyone could help me with the OEM version of this, please help me.
Thanks
EDIT:
I would like to make my own OEM packages, but I don't know how. Anyone can help me with this too? I saw that I need the files from the program, and I saw some files like .DSM, .RGU. That is it do? How can I make this files, to my programs?
Thanks fot helping me

Jack,
This is why I want your rgu.files.
The ROM with no rgu can't be dumped and Packed as Base ROM.
I try to use P526 Modules from your ROM,but I can't use it since no rgu files.
Could you please give me all files and tell me how to replace Phone Module as your ROM?

Thank you so much vivi, I saw you posting in kozhura's topics a few times so I thought you must have a HX4700 too. I've been trying to modify kozhura's ROM for a long time, but all I have managed to do so far is add some themes and a few programs which don't need any registry entries. It will be great to be able to add full packages.

bub,
I have a look.
It's not hard.
Just modify some command line from vivi Kitchen for P525.
And create Base ROM.
I will make it for you.Not too long.
But I wonder how many users want it?

Thanks vivi, I think there are at least 3-4 people that have posted in the HX4700 thread asking for a ROM kitchen, and I think many more people will start using it once it is made available. The HX4700 seems to have a set amount of reserved space for the base ROM and the user space always has 82.59 MB free regardless of how much you put in the base ROM, so it's a good idea to fill the space in the base ROM, which leaves more space available to install applications in the user space.
Will the ROM kitchen you make work with kozhura's latest WM5 build? I'm still using his WM5 build because it's more stable than his WM6 build and it's almost as fast as WM6.
Thanks for all you work, I really appreciate it.

Samsung SGH-i780 (and any other WM device for that matter!): Learn how to cook ROMS

Hi guys,
I decided to open a blog which explains how to cook roms for the i780. There are very few chefs, and cooking is a really hard science to learn without help! So, I decided that I take the time and write posts so that everyone could learn the process in a methodical manner and cook roms in the future!
I'd slowly write posts explaining each step of the process in detail, so that we can have more people learning how to cook and make the i780 community more happening
Head over to this URL to check out the first few posts -
http://i780romdev.blogspot.com
Update:
Attached core kitchen tools that you'll need to use! Enjoy!
cheers
San

I never was a fan of this forum, not sure why, maybe because I use a ASUS P527 and there are not proper instructions on how to create a custom ROM, I appreciate your taking the initiative

I think its good fun to try and figure out things on your own
Non-HTC devices do have a very small fan base unfortunately....and ironically, HTC makes the crappiest devices imo (highly crash prone, buggy, lousy drivers, useless qualcomm processor)!
You can apply the same tools and techniques even to cook asus roms....its not all that different
cheers

wooooooow thanks a lot buddy finally we have it also !!!

when will u release part 3? and also can u give the links of programs? like pkgtools_? coz i tried to download it from somewhere else and it had virus

You guy thanks for sharing your experience at cook ROMS,I whink I need this for my SmartPhone.

Hey guys, just dropped the next part of the series on the blog. Check out http://i780romdev.blogspot.com
Of course, the same theory, tools and understanding goes to cook for any other device too

To remove a package, you can get rid of the corresponding folders in your SYS folder. But its not recommended that you knock off office/ie as they might be referenced within other apps. You can always take it off, build a rom and see if everything works fine
For example, to remove IE, just delete your Browsing, Browsing_DPI_xx and Browsing_Lang_XXXX, BROWSINGCORE, browsingie, browsingie_LANG_XXXX folders. That should get rid of IE for you! Then you need to recreate your bin!

thanks a lot for kitchen tools and ur explanations! i read ur blog all the time great work!!

i have two problems while i am using ervius pkgtools
1. when i open dumo folder it shows

are these important dsm files?
2. when i press build packages it gives this error:

and i extract xip file using osbntool as xip.bin
any solutions for both of these?

trojan reported in the attachment
Win32/TrojanDownloader.Zlob.NBP
false alarm?

well last night i finished my own wm6.1 build 20270 128dpi pdxib1 according to your guide i wanna tell what i did to complete it ;
1.i exctracted my rom using i780 kitchen and i got dump folder and i also added some extra tools like ervius buildos,osnbtool etc...then i used pkgbuildos to seperate folders into oem and sys
2. i used oem part from krizky82's kitchen and i add some extra packages using ervius package creator 2.7 and add them with oem_blahblah to oem folder.
3. i deleted windows live and msn messenger from sys folder and copied netcf 3.5 and flashlite v3.1 from krizky82 kitchen. i also used his initflash and rgu file coz i had same structure almost(oem totally same and sys programs also)
4.i looked at both efn's kitchen and krizky82 kitchen and i saw that they have this structure oem,sys and rom and in rom there is xip folder. when i looked at inside xip folder i saw that there is only coredll.dll folder and others are dsm rgu and boot files so my next step
5. i used osbn tool to exract xip.bin and after i got that xipkitchen_beta6 and i choosed the same donor and original and after extracting i got original xip files and i ordered in same structure like efn's kitchen
6.then i used pgkbuildos and let the process starti had some dsm duplicate errors and i delete duplicated ones and later i didnt start xip extract bat and flashable bin bat so after process again i had temp/dump folder
7. during buildos there wasnt any error and i was happy about it
8. using inputTXTFileMaker ( thanks to u dreamtheather93) i got input text and after that using these commands;
mgfsfromdump imgfs_raw_data.bin new_imgfs.bin
del imgfs_raw_data.bin
ren new_imgfs.bin imgfs_raw_data.bin
make_imgfs i780.nb0.payload.body -nosplit
merge i780.nb0.payload.header i780.nb0.payload.body i780.nb0.payload
nbmerge -data 2048 -extra 8 i780.nb0 -conservative
and conv3 input.txt > conv3_output.txt
ren i780.nb0.b000ff !!i780_flashable_bin.bin
i got my flashable bin file yupiiiii i controlled the size of flashable bin and it is 86.2 mb and the size of dump folder almost 125 mb i hope it is ok
now i will flash my phone but is there any possibility that my phone can be bricked ?
thanks a lot for ur guide again!!!
note: i already used i780.bin as 12mb page pool size i did it before kitchen using osbn tool

good job m8
You cant really brick your i780 because of this I've done way crazier stuff....like trying out omnia's xip, drivers of omnia on i780....and nothing's given way
However, i'm hoping you've ported your XIP accurately, and i'm unsure how've you've built your SYS folder.
but, go ahead and flash and see if it boots nothing to be paranoid if it doesnt boot/hangs at startup/throws an error and fails etc. etc. If any of this happens, then we could troubleshoot it together
cheers & good luck

Great job!
Nice start San!
Not even some days left from your first successful cooking and you already best gid on it!
Keep on do it. And we wait for new mods for our best touchphone!
I think now anyone is able to break Eagles wings =P

Test this for me

I'm working on making my SuperJustKitchen the support the Hermes and I need someone to test this sample ROM. It's not perfect, yet, or anywhere near it, but I want to know if it at least boots.
http://justkitchen.info/JustROMs/HermesTest.7z

Today is "my flashing day"! .... tested quickly .... it boots!

Woot! That's two boots so far. I just have to clean the OEM a little more and I will be releasing SuperJustKitchen v0.7 with official Hermes support.

jejeje thanks Ivanmmj! will be waiting for it... you have here another betatester.
Keep it up!

I can only give you guys a native 6.5 kernel if you guys already have one.
Do you?

Yes we already have Native! 6.5 nk

Give me a link and I will include it (although most of the kitchen files have already been converted to files to work with the other devices.)

I can get it to you when I get off work if you don't have it already. What do you need just the OEM*** folder that has nk.exe?

The NK should be in the XIP, so I need your OEMKernelXIP, although having your OEMDrivers probably won't hurt, either since it has newer drivers. (IF the OEM is new... I don't know if it is or if only the XIP is new.)

I had a problem with that one since its set to 15pp. The one I use is still by utak3r but has the correct pp set.

It's ok. By default the PP will always be set to 6mb on the kitchen and you can change it with a simple option.
Mind you, from now on, you will have to click on the "native 5.6 kernel" option from here on in the kitchen.

just in case
http://www.4shared.com/file/144724764/f441f2f/drivers_kernel.html

I haven't download the second link, yet, but here's a test made with the first link. It's just random programs put together. (I'm still working on stripping the OEM's of the Hermes, the Artemis and the Opal for the next kitchen release.)
http://justkitchen.info/JustROMs/HermesTest2.7z
EDIT: Forgot the link. lol

Just as Info....
The kernel that Da_G posted has PP in 15mb and the EVK xiporterexe cant change the PP, but utak3r stripp even more the native kernel... and makes it change with the nbtools.exe.. so our .bat in EVK change in the line to allow nbtools change the pp.

Help For updating wm6 XIP to wm6.1

First thx for helping me
I was trying to port a XIP from Touch Cruise
Yet it cant even boot in the system [only suck at the screen with the red words at the bottom]
Any clear tutorial for me. Thank you

You cannot just use the XIP from another phone.
You must get the XIP split into OEMXIPKernel and MSXIPKernel so that you can combine the new MSXIP with your existing Trinity OEMXIP.
And most of the time you would need to use the new build's SYS packages that go along with that new MSXIP.
What kitchen are using? Ervius Visual Kitchen?

Yes i am using Ervius Visual Kitchen
What i do is using the xipporterex to port the xip.
I even tried to follow the bepe tutorial from darkforceteam with bepe kitchen.
Yet same error occured.
Would u mind giving me a clear step for making it workable?
thx

Sorry but I have always used pre-extracted XIP/SYS bundles from people like Da_G that I then put into my kitchen. So I am not sure I can give you a full step through for porting the TC xip/sys from scratch.
One thing about the OEMXIP though, whenever I have used xipporterex I usually discard the generated ROM\Trinity\NEWBUILD# and replace it with a copy of my existing ROM\Trinity\OLDBUILD# (I just rename the folder to the new build number). It is just the ported ROM\Shared\NEWBUILD# folder that you want.
Again, you are also using the SYS\NEWBUILD# folder aren't you?

Oh man! You are genius!!!
My rom comes bootable after renaming the folder!
That's so fantastic
Yet the xip of the system seems hasn't update [still the old build ]

Update
I used the old Build.. therefore, my device is bootable....
Yet when i choose back the new build, ext xip and sys as the neew version,
it suck again at the screen...
Thx man i know u have tried a lot to figure out my problem.
Is it possible or better, if i upload my kitchen for u to check?

Oh thats easy. The "Rom Version" (that shows on boot) just needs to be patched (it is reading it from the copied OEMXIP).
Just go back into the Porting window then click the button "Find Date/Version on \ROM\Xip\"
That will populate the Rom Date and Rom Version fields.
You can then edit those fields and click each of the "Change" buttons to patch the newer Date/Version into the OEMXIP
You can also set the PagePool value using the "Change PP to Mb" function (it is not possible to query the current PP value however it does tell you what it previously was when you change it). You could always set it to something sensible like 4 or 6 and see what it was before that.
EDIT: If you were actually talking about the CE OS build number that shows in "About Device" then that is much harder to change. It is embedded somewhere within the MSXIP (requires hex editing I am not familiar with - and that is effectively make a "fake" build anyway).

Oh, sorry just saw this ... yeah probably better to just do that.
Just curious but why on earth do you want to port some old TC 6.1 rom anyway?
There a plenty of functional WM6.5 xip/sys bundles that we can/have ported to Trinity. Even if it has be WM6.1 there are surely newer releases of 6.1 xip/sys to choose from?
EDIT: Just a heads up but I am about to go offline for the night (end of the work day in my timezone) so if you do upload I will not reply until tomorrow.

You could extract the 23102 wm6.5 build from my last kitchen release:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5547181#post5547181
I have modified EVK slightly to allow it to build either p3600i or Trinity ROMs from the same kitchen but still there is a full QVGA xip/sys bundle there for 23102 (give or take a few sys packages).
Got to go, will try and be more helpful tomorrow

Go and find SuperSport's Tutorial Video for using Ervius Kitchen.
I have broken up the EXT packages into categories to make it simpler for new chefs but the basic concept is the same.
I have included pre-built ROM profiles to make it very simple to build ROMs out-of-the-box.
Just got to "Load ROM", choose one for your phone (P3600i or Trinity) and the click "Create ROM" to build it.
Load a few different profiles and look at what changes in the settings. That should help you see what is going on.

1 more question
I downloaded a XIP SYS Pack from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650783
However there are 5 Folders
How can i port them into the kitchen?
Thx for that

OK, this technically requires more time than I can spare to explain thoroughly ... but maybe if I just outline the steps you can do some google searching to work out exactly how to do it:
- First you need to clean up the SYS for you needs. For Trinity you need to have QVGA sys structure so that means only 96DPI and 320x240
- That means sorting the SYS package folders into an EVK SYS structure and removing the other DPI and resolution folder structures.
- Go get XIPDumpSoter (or whatever it is called now) by teh penguin so that you can use it to automatically sort the folders. Then delete any that are for other DPI or RES (eg: 192DPI or 640x480, etc). You _only_ want 96DPI and 320x240 (and of course any that are non-res specific)
- That should give you the folder structure to put into \SYS\NEWBUILD#\
- You will need to copy over the WINCENLS sys package from your existing SYS as that will not be in the new SYS (there are other replacement folders like SQM_DUMMY, and also some that we often just delete but you can learn that stuff later)
- We have already discussed what you need to do with the MSXIP
- Lastly, (and this is really very much the "art vs sicence" part), you will need to go through and "recmod" a certain number of "modules" within certain sys packages.
I simply don't have the time right now to get into recmod but if you google you will find plenty of helpful posts explaining it. I think there is even a basic recipe of what to recmod for 64M users done by JooJooBee ... that would get you going.
Put simply, at this stage you need to read read read read read lots of chef threads to pick up the finer details. Sorry I am too busy at work to be any more help than this.
Good luck.

Thank you for spending time on me
I know it is rather annoying to explain a few things
Really Really Thank you for helping me
I hope that my post could be a guide for others
Update:
The rom is still unbootable after a day of trying.
Does the OEM section be edit before updating the build?
Such as initflashfiles.dat [I read the in the tutorial that it should change to the native 6.5]
May be i started from the wrong step?
What i concern is that wm6 may not suitable to update directly to wm6.1 or wm6.5
Thank you for spending much time on helping me
If it can be google, simply give me the keyword,
I will finish the entiry
And finally, thank you!!

I'm actually going to bed before 3am tonight, so I will not be long here, but I just had a thought. When you cook the ROM, are you checking "Real WM 6.5 AKU" in the Kitchen? Don't do that. You cannot actually use a Native 6.5 Kernel on the Trinity as one does not exist. Also, as mentioned by the.Decoy before, you MUST have 'wince.nls' in your Kitchen somewhere or it will not boot. Thirdly, try cooking a version without ANY Extended packages. Only the original XIP and SYS and see if that boots. When you get that going smoothly, start adding EXT packages. Good Luck!
I'll check back in a couple days to see if you've made any progress. If you'd like to send your kitchen to me also, I'd be happy to look it over and see if I can find anything wrong in there.

Again and Again
I keep remind myself that Native 6.5 Kernel should be checked
OMG The Bug is here
And Thanks Decoy
Thank You
Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!
================================
Update:
I saw a folder called 0_ROM_Version in EXT Shared
What is it and what function does it have?
Thx

Ummm are you trying to use a freshly extracted OEM from an official ROM?
If so then yes, there is a massive amount of conversion that must be done to it before you an cook it into a rom. Even before you break it up in to components and edit all the reg and dat files ... you first need re-sign everything with an SDK cert because you won't have the official cert that HTC built them with.
Seriously. If you are just starting out then use an existing chef's OEM (use mine or anyone else who has posted a kitchen).
Even I have not yet ever had the time to complete build an OEM from scratch (not that I don't want to one day). I was always just adapting the OEM that Chanvi had provided us in his kitchen, primarily because he had already done all the work to make it mesh with WM6.5

I am bit confused by what you said there
As Supersport explained, we do not have a Native 6.5 kernel for Trinity.
So that option should not be checked.

Again, this is why I said to try "Load ROM" and see what happened
Those are just simply EXT packages which contain 1 single provxml. Each one sets the registry value for "ROM Version" (the info that comes up in "About Device" in Settings). There is one for every type of "Saved ROM" you can build from that kitchen.
I created them so that people could build each of the several types of rom from my kitchen but never need to edit the provxml files to change what the version info was.
If you are going to try cooking your own roms, the best advice I can give you is find a text editor you like and just start opening up ALL of the REG DAT RGU and PROVXML files you can find and see what they are doing.
You can even do it from within EVK. Select the type of file on the left panel called "Editors" (or just select "All") then click "Show Editor". You can open the files it finds by double clicking them in the panel on the right.
Anything custom that ever happens in the setup of a rom is controlled by these files.
If you want to see how something works (or what it does), just open up the files and read them

Sorry, wt i mean is that my rom become bootable after unchecking it
~~ That is so amazing ~~
Now i am Reading the horrible, endless.....etc tutorial, [I can finally have my own rom ]
1 Question, I am trying to put a new wince.nls which content much more countries in the rom. Yet it comes unbootable after i have repalced it.
I googled around and found several solutions.
1 is that i should put it in OEM rather than SYS [I havn't ried it yet i think it won't work]
2 is that i should mod the size of the xip.bin
Therefore it is big enough to store it.
3 Adding in some registry with my selected country code
Thanks for helping me ~~

Sorry can't help you there.
I have never ventured beyond WWE lang for my kitchens.
