What specific problems with the kitchen are you having? So far there hasn't been a single problem seen that could not be solved.

i build my rom and click play and it askes me if i want to replace the existing file and i click yes like 200 times then it gets to "creating registry" and it gets stuck i let it sit for 2 days and no progress i reinstalled but i still have the same problem somebody told me it was an oem but i unselected everything and still no luck......i would love a custom rom but if all i could get was a clean 1 that would be ok to i just dont want wm5

The only Clean ROMs are WM5. We do not have pre-made WM6/6.1 ROMs anymore.

When it stopped after making the registry, what error message did it give? There should be a message at the end of BuildStatus windows.

BTW, if you watch the play button, it will switch from a stop button to a play button when it is "not doing anything". If it's hung or working on somthing, it'll be a stop button.

I used to get this kind of mishap whenever i forgot to match the bootloader version on the phone to the bootloader version in the kitchen. Make sure that it matches and that you aren't running excess processes on your PC when it is building.

It also sounds like you are trying to build a bloated rom, which will not load on Apache. Build a very lean rom, verify it flashes, and build on that success.

Yes. You can not put a ton of junk in a ROM. I also had stated that in the thread about asking how to revert bootloaders. If you have a 2.05 it still is enough to build a ROM, filled with enough stuff. There is no reason you should be building so much stuf you run out.
