On this page: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=GSM Hero ROMs
the official HTC ROMs are listed under the "RUU" section. The downloads will be executable files, but you should be able to extract the system/data/boot images with a plain old archiver program like WinRAR. Any of the custom HTC ROMs, like Modaco, are based on these.
As far as using other people's ROMs, there's no reason you can't use them for your own personal use, and as far as distributing them, I'm sure the original cooks would be fine as long as you give credit where credit is due. Of course I'd ask permission first, but I doubt anyone here would have much of a problem with it.

I am trying to dig through an old summiter ROM to extract ringers but can't find the ringers. I am looking at the ROM using WinRAR, but there is some NK file that is the largest of all; are ringers in there?
That is noob I know but I haven't broken up a ROM since the old Summiter days, and am lost.
What tools are there to break up a ROM to see the indivudual files in them?
I saved you the trouble as I keep those on my SC. Here's summiter's wavs and themes.
(I'm such a pack rat, keep every ROM Summiter, Faria, Molski and the rest of the rat pack ever released (and many that never made it to being released)
Enjoy!

MOD EDIT
this is for cooks only....if you try to install this str8 onto your hero you may brick it....YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
Tatoo ROM? in HERO thread? WTF?
i believe the OP has posted it to let the ROM cookers have a look at it. It can probably be ported to the Hero.
Thanks to the OP
OK, I get it now. Thanks then. A new ported ROM is always good
i also understand that the tattoo is based on the 1.6 donut build...so would be really nice to get it on the hero
Yeah, I posted this link for ROM Cookers, for usual users it's useless.
Hi guys sorry for the noob question:
I open the exe and search in my PC the Temp folder where the content is temporaly extracted and see a "rom.zip" file.
When I open inside exist:
android-info.txt
boot.img
hboot_7225_0.52.0001_090922.nb0
radio.img
recovery.img
splash1_Tattoo_320x240.nb0
system.img
userdata.img
How can I open the img files to access the files and graphics inside? before in others hero files I just open using 7zip but now i can´t open using this method.
PS:why the userdata.img only is 3kb?
So I think it'll be safe to assume that we can't just flash this ROM to the Hero, even with a Nandroid backup?
Correct, it won't work on a hero in its un modified format. Wait for a chef to cook it up for the hero.
note to all
Don't try to flash this rom to your hero.
Its for cooks only.
You have been warned!
I HAVE PUT THIS IN THE TITLE......as someones bound to try and flash there hero
nobody knows how to extract the files from .img using WinXP.?
Is this a complete Rom?, like I said before userdata.img only has 3.kb
Regards

Many thanks for the reply, but im stuck here.
Sorry I dont know nothing about Android, I use the extracted files from hero build for made a ThrottleLauncher theme, now I want to update the theme a skin other apps (like FM Radio, Wm Taskbar, etc) using the files from a Tatoo rom.
So, please, anybody can post the extracted apps from inside of system.img
I really apreciate.
Thanks
The keyboard on the tattoo looks nice - hopefully it'll be possible to extract it from the tattoo and cook it into a hero rom
Hi all,
I'm currently working on a 2.1 Sense-UI 'Lite' Rom, which will use a customised, lightened version of the Espresso Rosie. I'll be no-doubt spending every second of my free time in Photoshop with the aim of making this rom look stunning.
As for the rom itself:
I've used highlights from several of the current 2.1 releases from this and other forums, and I'm pretty happy with it so far; it has a very small 'not working' list, and the filesize is reasonably low for a Sense UI rom. Of course, I'll credit people where credit is due.
Anyway, the questions. Some of this may seem incredibly dumb. Please assume that I have an understanding of Linux, but I am very new to Android Development. I've simply read the guide that Lox posted, then taken a 'learn whilst I work' approach. So...
1. How do I edit the 'Software Number'? (I can't seem to find it)
2. If I start again with a clean, AOSP 2.1 rom, how do I make it use Rosie? It can't just be a case of putting the Rosie.apk in the right place can it?
3. If I want to select which apps/widgets appear and where, do I edit the relevant XML which contains the Screen/X/Y locations?
If/when I have more questions, I'll post them here!
Thanks in advance
1. Sorry dont know,
2. No you need to add all the framework files, quite a few of them I think.
3. system/customize/mns/default.xml
Dan
Thanks Dan. I have the Framework files, so that's easy enough.
I suspected it was the default.xml, so thanks again.
Anyone know the answer to my first question?
I think that it is somwhere in build.prop but I can be wrong.
1. No idea what you mean by 'Software Number'
2. com.htc.framework.jar and friends need to be added to init.rc's BOOTCLASSPATH var ... so at the very least, you need to provide a custom boot.img ... that rules out adding it over other custom ROMs ... on top of that all the Rosie related /system files need to be present...
3. yes - that default.xml is the place ..
Good luck ...!
(Side note ... Why oh why would you want to add sense!)
OK, I have been searching and searching. I can find a lot of places where they post mods but I was hoping there would be a walkthrough for first timers. I would like to start modding some of the apps on my phone. (AKA Widgets transparent or themed). is there a place I can find what files contain what images for HTC Sense? when I was playing with modding in windows mobile sense I found a lot of info but I can not seem to find too much here.
I believe these are the steps:
1. get apk
2. unzip and change images
3. repack apk
4. copy apk to /system/app
I am not sure how to repack a apk yet (any pointers would be great). I am not sure I am suppose to get the apk from the system folder or from the website? by copying it to the system folder is that enough? or do I have to install it?
Any little pointers would be great.
Thanks,
SoBBie

hey New to the xda fourms but looking for some information about skinning I got a few questions which I've trolled over xda very little and some other sites that never directly point me in the direction I'm looking to go. I have worked with linux is in the past. ex puppy linux which I was very fond of for user information about anything to do with puppy. but I have just learned from trial and error . anyways my questions are as follows.
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?
2. what programs do I need to take on this task?
3. I am currently not using linux,using windows7 to do this, is this going to matter? or should I switch to a linux based os?
in the end all I wanna do is change the bling appel of my phone with my own custom look not someone else's idea. a basic point in the right direction would be a big help. I my even post some skins to add to the dhd world.thanks in advance.
I want to ask the same questions:
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?

If you want to get away the easy way, then:
1. Download rom of your choice (.zip format)
2. Extract framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from that zip file (you'll have to look in the data folder).
3. Go to UOT kitchen and go to file upload tab and then select "upload system files" then upload the ones you've just extracted.
4. Once they are uploaded, you can browse through all the tabs and select things of your choice.
5. When you're finished selecting, go to Sumery tab and cook your files.
6. Wait for 5-10 minutes then go to pickup tab and you should have your .zip ready for that specific rom
7. Flash the .zip
8. Enjoy!
Note: For every rom, the framework and systemui.apk is different so for every different rom you'll have to extract those files from .zip file of that rom
hey thanks,I have been looking at that kitchen cooking but I'm looking for a more manual approach at doing things. can I do that same step guide but manually skin it myself?
how do I manually recompile after I'm done?
I have been creating icons for a little over a week with gimp on windows on free time with a theme in mind looking for more of a one of a kind idea and then maybe adding themes to the dhd network after I get a handle on it, so looking to create theme packs. I been trying to do it with a few apps but I can't get the icons out of the apps to show up when I pull it apart so I figure I'm missing something I would need to go about doing my work. am I missing extensions I need to complete this?

To change the icons in downloaded apps you will need to decompile the apps apk then change out the icon in the app, them recompile. Mind you it will get replaced again when the app updates. A search would lead you to many themeing tuts on XDA
