OEM Organizing?

[iljacksoniii]

Hello fellow members. This will be my first post so be easy on me ..Ive been on this site and xda for about 2 years now and im finally getting into cooking my own rom. Yet I prefer to do this from scratch, rather than just download a kitchen change a few packages and call it my own. I've actually been doing a lil cooking already. Xip and Sys porting, making my own oem, reg entries, alot...lol. Yet i just cant seem to organize my oemapps into their own seperate packages. Dont worry i have searched my a** off and still cant seem to find a tutorial or some instructions on how to do that on my own. Ive read about going thru the initflashfiles yet that file doesnt seem to cover all the files with in that folder. So im just asking if anybody can help me understand the process of which some of you Expert chefs go about doing this. Or at least point me in the right direction for the information I need.
Thanks and Love what you guys have been doing with the site over the years. Lots of helpful info.

You can do this by creating a couple of blank OEMs. How I do it is create a blank one, then copy it to several OEM's and rename them....

YouTube_OEM
1_OEM
2_OEM

Then go back change the *.RGU, *.DSM and the entry inside the options.xml file so all the RGUID's match. Like so, editing the last 3 numbers of the RGUID in ALL 3 locations:

YouTube_OEM RGUID's: e29023a8-1df6-47e1-8b01-4c94430ec001
1_OEM RGUID's: e29023a8-1df6-47e1-8b01-4c94430ec002
2_OEM RGUID's: e29023a8-1df6-47e1-8b01-4c94430ec003

Then use an existing OEM as a guide to pull the files needed out of OEMAPPS into your new OEMS. Don't forget the registry entries out of the RGU and the file movement commands out of the initflashfiles.txt files...

Further OEM references are here :

This tutorial will help you create OEM's for your Roms.


Or you could just drop an OEM into your kitchens OEM directory, then delete the duplicates out of the OEMAPPS directory...

Goodluck!

edit: I always take the complicated road first! lol...

thanks for the damn quick response lol...Would you happen to have a stock oem folder i can use a reference? that is already seperated

Use the following tutorial to decompile the stock rom:

How to Customize a Custom Rom: Adding/Removing Programs
Does your favorite Chef include files/programs that you don't use? This will show you how to delete those programs you don't use and insert the ones that you do use! (This method doesn't always work with a PPCKitchen.org custom rom).

I did this to the Diamond rom, but not yet for your device....
