Hi, I'm preparing all you need to kook a italian rom by yourself...
in some minutes 1st part, with programs that you need to extract .nb files from .nbh, and reassemble .nbh as you like, how to dump a rom and how recompile it..
bye!!!
ok, the utilityes you need are:
*** all utilities are ready to download in the end of this post!!! ***
1) nbhtool_trin.rar
2) package_tool.rar
3) nbdumper.rar
4) bepe_kichen_trinity_ita_WM-6.1.rar
Code:
6.1 bepe_kitchen.rar
5) Flash_nbh.rar (included into kitchen!)
6) rgu to xml transform an rgu or a reg file into a provxml file!!
7) dsm patcher to update also the dsms files to respect the rom's os and build version
1) nbtool from dutty is usefull to decompile/recompile nbh , decompil enbh, choose nbh to decompile, you have 1 or more .nb files, windows.nb is that you need, the rom, you should find also:
radio.nb (radio)
first/second_splash.nb (the 2 images shown as splashscreens!!!)
ipl.nb (boot of trinity...)
spl.nb
and other that now I not remember...
................
to recompile the nbh file, just select that you need (os.nb, first.nb second.nb)
for my experiences, try first times only with os.nb, choose the file and compile the nbh files,your rom is ready to be flashed into device...
2) package tools analize the dumped os windows.nb and tell about sys and oem versions, more it creates packages of dumped rom, and insert all files into the 2 system directory "oem" and "sys" with button (menu) "build packages"
3) nbdumper from tadzio, it is the important tool togheter bepe kichen, with it you are able to dump "windows.nb"
put windows.nb into the folder, dos prompt and write:
nbdump windows.nb (then press enter...)
in few minutes you have inside also the directory named: windows.nb.dump, iside you can find all files that will be in rom on your device...
4) now open package tools by bepe, search this directory, and analize, after analizing, click on build packages...
after some time, you in "windows.nb.dump" directory have: sys and oem folders...
this is the real os...
now you neeedd xip directory...
copy windows.nb into the directory named:XIP_extract (that you can find in "bepe_kichen_trinity_ita" tool...
copy it into the directory, rename from windows.nb into "os.nb"
click on "Make_XIP.bat" and then you have "xip" folder...
copy xip folder into "rom" folder in of "bepe_kichen_trinity_ita", copy os.nb too into "rom" folder, so you have rom folder and inside:xip fiìolder and os.nb...
ok...
now, oem and sys folder obtained with package tools, copy them into "bepe_kichen_trinity_ita" tools, and you have:
oem, sys, tools, xip_extract and rom folders, and the exes...
now is ready...
you have to click on "buildos.exe" and the rom will be build, ok, now there is a new folder, "temp", now you have finished, only click on createrom.bat and in few seconds you can find into \temp\ folder a file named os-new.nb, this is the new rom, build .nbh with dutty nbtools, and can flash it on your device!!!
5) to flash put nbh created into folder:Flash_nbh, flash....
next, tools and howto: create extended_roms;create own splashscreens, adding own packages (the packages are additional programs... into I left yet 3/4 packages from mine!!).....
*******************************************************************
I must make all credits also to udK, that discovered with me the right way to kook roms...
and invite all people to make some dotations to him, for the hard work that he made to have a good italian rom to mount on our devices!!!
thanks friend...
*******************************************************************
I think is better to try with udk or lasagna roms to start, they are perfext and logically structured as bepe kichen wants!!!
bye!!!
****************************************************************************************
*
* P.S.: and finally I think that if you decide to use udk rom to make experiments, you have to donate him,
* and if uou want to use lasagna rom to learn to use bepe kichen, also you have to make donations to guybrush.
* they worked hard to translate the rom, you must donete to use theyr roms I think is the only think to do
* to tell them "thanks!!!", really...
*
****************************************************************************************
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
lesson 2:
how make own splashscreen!!!
just open an image or create one, with also paint;
make it 240x320 pixels, 240 in width, 320 in height...
save it as bmp, with 24 bits...
open it with nb_image_converter
convert to "nb"
save it as first and second.nb...
now, if you don't have windows.nb use dutty's nbtools to extract from rom, reuse nbtools to compile nbh, add
in os: windows.nb
in "first splash" the file first.nb
in "second splash" the file second.nb...
compile nbh file and flash into ppc, when you finish, you can see you freferred splash screens!!
next:
create a package and/or translate the exe/mui files in your language with resource hacker!!!
try to open an exe, or first a mui files if there is into the package!!
you can see:
icon (you are able to change it , but is not important for us!!)
dialog, you can move the object inside them, rename or translate strings and other...
string table, here you can change, translate in your language tje strings of mui/exe!!!
and other, but for modify translate this basts!!
see later!!! bye!!!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
lesson 3:
for mui:
if you have traslated them, you have also to rename: exaple, if therer is amui xxx_409.mui, in english of couse, and you stranslated it into italian, you hace also to rename it by xxx_409.mui to xxx_410.mui!!!
and for italians mui you can use the ones from tynh wm6 Italian rom!!!
and also initflashfiles.dat must be traslate...:
and also rgu files:example:
string: "programs" must became "programmi"
string: "my pictures" must became "immagini"
etc.etc.
howto: CREATE A PACKAGE!!!
ok, download theese utility:
wince cab manager from here:
http://www.ocpsoftware.com/
(full funcional trial for 15 days!!!)
and my utility: packages creator (a little tools of mine!! )
from here:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPPED:
(new version... bugs solved... option improved!!!)
now in bilingual ITA/ENG, and with more option to personalyze your new packages!!
new beta with more and more options to create initflashfiles.txt...
flag:"simulate folder names" on wince cab manager and put reg file into package folder you choice...
example: "...\trypackage\windows\batterystatus\batterystatus.exe"
you have to put reg file into "...\trypackage\to-import.reg" ok???
and here the new beta of package creator!!!
Hi all, from a Bennec83's Idea I released this last version that works with cab analyzer, and make packages from cab files automatically...
*******************************Re-reupped 1st good working release!!! 4.1 *********************
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ok!!!!
P.S.: if th bepe kichen shows an error during the kook operation, it will be becouse there is another file (duplicate file) yet present in rom, delete it from other subfolder, not in the package just inserted...
next appointmant to create own extended_rom!!! and some triks on registry (modifing rgu files!!!)
see you!!!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
lesson 4 playing with extended rom:
howto: create and use extended roms...
ok, have to download the utility htc_extended_rom_editor
I think is all.... (for now!!!)
your knowledge about roms, its components, how to dump, build, add packages are full... rests to edit rgu and provxml...
but in next days....
bye bey and good experiments!!!
*********************************************************************************
*********************************** ******************************
*********************************** UPDATES ******************************
new version of buildos+packagetools, some imporvements, and context menu on packages to enable/disable them by default!!
new version of buildos, now:
1) xip porting for os ber updating;
2) updater for Rom Creation Date;
3) Updater for Rom version at Boot screen!!!
enjoy!!!
improved some context menus on selected package.....
xip porting for OS version and Rom's Date creations Updater!!
new version of package creator, to have own directory where place shortcuts, and some minor bugs solved
here: and added links in initflashfiles.txt for .htm files for "Help"!!!
P.S.: I need beta testing for my apps, becouse, I go on programming and there are allwais same bung into...
bye!!! ( a big thanks to guybrush and udk for testing and support, but specially to Vibranze for testing package creator!!!)

thanx, let's start cook togheter
--reserved for packages--
I only hope that my 3d iwill be usefull to be better, and share togheter a lot of packages for our trinity devices!!
see lather...
I love you.
This is what I searched for long time.
Two question.
1) What difference there is between this and Orginiale Bepe ROM kitchen form Hermes.
2) Can I use all ROM that i Want to start the cooking?
....
3) This is possible some mirror not rapidshare? (for example www.divshare.com)
Grazie mille.
Viva il P3600.

1) infinite greetings to bepe for the beautifull tool...
the kichen is the same, only you have os and xip for trinity (after you extrapolated oem-sys folders and xip!!!)
2) you can use all roms you want, also in other languages, but only if they , after you dumped and analyzed with bepe package tools, and have oem and sys folders (and xip folder...), but if you try with roms that have missed files, you must try to insert them into oem or sys dolder, you, after use bepe package tools must see only "oem" and "sys" folder, nothing else, to know that the rom is really ok..., in other case the rom was built in confused mode or with other utilities, that I consider oldier...
bye!!!
and my final point is also share a lot of packages....
for now I think it's all, but in few days I explain also howto build packages and other....
see you!!
ervius, very good tutorial i think it'll be useful not only for italian people but for everyone who want learn how to cook their own rom. Just a tip...be careful, read everything and try to understand how these tools works and check everything before try to flash your device.

Thanks ervius! you are truly "mythical". I`ll read all with much attention tomorrow, now i`m seat in one park bench to 5 meters from the sea.....
Hi...... morf3o.
added lesson 2 (how to create/modify images and create your splashscreens at ppc boot!!!)
at first post!!
see you later to build our first package!!!
I tried this tools with Lasagna 205 ROM.
I arrived to package tools
When I press "Build Packages" I've this error:
Code:
Syntax error map.txt:
tom
tom is the last lin of map.txt.
Can i delete it witouth problem?
At the end I've also the OEM and SYS directory but there are also three file out all directory:
Recorder.exe
Voice Recorder (link)
Recorder.exe.0410.mui
It's ok?
One Advice.
To arrive at DUMP directory and afther to OEM and SYS I found more easy and fast this way:

Thanks 1000!

so, you have to install also java virtual machine... with this utilities in not necessary...
thanks ciccio but i'd like to continue with bepe's kichen, do you like use it??
ok...
3 files are out, put them into \oem\oemapps\ directory, so you now have only oem and sys directory, then... extract xip etc... etc...
ok!!!
thank's for your answers.
I like also Bepe's Kitchen. GO ON!
For the Syntyax error?

I don't have your error, but if finally you have oem and sys folders, then it works well...
but you can try to delete and post if it work...
bye!!
Sorry for my newbie question...
In my understanding all this tools are working with ROM files you already found "somewhere".
What I want to do first is getting a working ROM out of a Trinty device. E.g. I have a german Vodafone device with the Vodafone custom ROM. I simply want to "copy" this ROM on my Harddisk. No changes. I only want to be able to flash it back if I want to, to have the device in the same state it is now.
Which tool do I have to use?
What do I have to do?

Ciao
A question ervius:
we suppose that I succeed to modify/create my first ROM, exists a way in order to test it without flash on my device? A way for being sure that if I flash, i do not burn my trinity....
Thanks........ morf3o.

Your OS is in part2, first two parts are the XIP partition aka your boot sector.

Hi all, i have complety translated, .rgu / .dsm / .bmp / dpi 96 to 192 / 0409 to 0406.
from 20924.
But, when i cook it, and flash my phone, it dosen't book. I can see the version, but i can't not come to wm6 startscreen.
Do some1 know what it could be ?
Could some1 please look at my files maybe :/?
http://rapidshare.com/files/161467646/sys.rar
Bump, no one want to look in it and help me ??
Search for and download a tool called G'reloc.
A common issue with ported OS builds is that they fail to boot due to improperly coded/placed files. G'reloc will fix this for you. Just run it right before cooking, and then once compiled and flashed, your ROM should boot fine.
*You will need to find the correct codes for G'reloc and a Diamond ROM. I have only used this tool on the Kaiser, so I cannot tell you what they are.

I tried using a newer BuildOS for the Kaiser that included G'reloc, and it never worked properly. I would run G'reloc on it's own, and then uncheck the box to run it as part of BuildOS.
If those values are auto filled in for you, then give it a shot with them. Worst case, the phone still doesn't boot.

Yes they just came automatic, so. Yes i will try that one, will report back if it dosen't
--- Edit ---
I couldn't i get an I/O error 105. ? Some1 knows what this it ?
--
Run-time error 105: File not open for output.
This error occurs if you try to use standard input and output functions
like Readln and Writeln without the Uses WinCRT; statement.
To correct this error, add Uses WinCRT; to your program.
How exactly did you translate the 96.DPI files?
Safe yourself the headaches and use the Diamond 1.96 as a base.
That would give you all the SYS 192 dpi files you need.
Are you making the ROM true 0406?
Or just translating or renaming the 0409.mui files?

HI
For port this os build i've made this:
first try to port only the xip
Delete folder from your old working kitchen:
MSXIPKernel
MSXIPKernelLTK
AND OEMXIPKernel if exist
Delete your old OS.NB in ROM folder of your kitchen
Now you need to Extract OS.NB From a diamond ROM 20924 protected or not !
(My rom for exemple)
take the 20924 OS.NB in your ROM folder
then just cook with your old sys and oem folder without the folder mentioned on top. flash & verify xip version.
if this work ,change your sys with the 20924 you have
but keep some files from your old working sys
if i have a good memory i've keep this:
.ROM folder
.VM folder
.Metadata folder
.hd.dll folder
.osaxst0.dll folder
.gwes.exe folder
possible some other files...
if you have Greloc error replace files mentioned in error
try this.
ask if you need help

Hi there, trust me. I have looked the thread many times ..
Anyway, i got an update.
I have get the phone to boot, with the orginal OS & OSFILES.. Now i just need to find what files i need to have, to get it boot..
But i still got a bug, when it boot, touchflo3d won't start, it just skips. ?
The problem you are facing might be (99%) because of improper XIP porting. Just for suggestion, go through my XIP porting guide (in my signature) and try again with a working 20924 XIP (if you cant find one then I'll up the xip.bin from which I ported and am using)
Using original OS folder would not qualify as SYS porting If you check the SYS build no, you will see the original no and not the ported build

anything new about an issue, I try to port build 20757 from BlackStone and I'm facing the same problem too : replacing SYS only doesn't boot
