Are you saying that if I:

4) build a rom using OMJ's kitchen
5) flash it
6) it won't boot (sometimes or all the time?)
then
7) build a clean rom using ppckitchen (from same base as step 1),
flash it
9) boot it?
10) flash rom from steps 4-6
11) now it will boot?

what basekit are you using in the ppckitchen kitchen and what is OMJs kitchen based on? Are you sure that just repeating steps 4-6 vs doing 7-9 doesn't work? Are you doing anything else like pulling batteries?
As a guess, I'm thinking that it has something to do with the bootup images and where the entry point is. The rom(s) are made from the ppckitchen. I'm thinking that your kitchen does a little more with the boot up images, as the command line kitchen won't flash properly. I have been searching for some enlightenment on why this happens.
Once we flashed the alltel rom, our methods quit working. Today I built a rom with the ppckitchen. This one I selected the same boot splash, and limited the stuff I added. Then I could flash a command line kitchen to my phone. Before it would hang at the bootsplash screen and never got to display the radio/rom info.
The methods are taking omj's rom, prepit, buildos, buildit. even with no editing it wouldn't work before.
