How to Build a ROM so it displays your name

If the above (properly formed and named _setup.xml) were included in a cab file and executed post-flash, would the "Settings > System > Device Information" remain? If so, that's a neat trick ... I've never seen a ROM pull that information from anywhere other than "HKLM\Software\OEMROMVersion".

If you use PPCkitchen, your name will be baked into the about screen automatically.

Lol, ok
Either way, giving a specific hex location is useless since each base will have a different one.
I also believe in sharing and helping others, which is why we share our kitchen and every tweak and program that goes with it, as well as a few walkthroughs. The ONLY think you would need a more advanced knowledge to properly (I mean, not just hex editing a string) would be the ROM Version, and I think there's a logo in the customization screen.

let me refraise: there is a black box that appears when you open the build my rom, at the top mine says c4rbon kitchen's BUILD MY ROM!

the Q: How do i make one of these!!!!? I want to write one myself, (this one says "this program was written by Tobeychris and Ghettofreeryder.") and is this a c++ program?

They rephrased their question asking how to make a ROM building program, but with their name. It actually had nothing to do with any ROM modification...

lol - I read that, but interpreted it as something totally different. The original question is much more interesting.

lol... you want to make a kitchen, but seem to know little about ROMs, Cooking, or even what a cmd window is?

Best thread of '08.
