hello scrosler ...did you fix the 2016 bug? thanks

[sureshot007]

Seeing as I'm new to making my own rom, any tips on how to customize settings? Like which options are selected by default, and how to copy a file over after initialization?

I dont have any customizations that will help you copy a file over by default ;c( Sorry. You would have to do that manually. As far as customizing settings..... EEEK this could be a long conversation ;c) What specifically do you want to know?

[sureshot007]

I know it's a long conversation - I have spent countless time searching the internet for solutions, but everyone has their own way of doing it, and no one ever really explains it at a level I can understand...without spending days playing around with stuff.

Basically, I have a today screen cab that I converted to install with the kitchen, but now I want it to be selected by default when the rom is flashed.

I'd also like to add a custom splash screen (I know that should be covered somewhere else, but since I'm asking questions, I thought I'd throw it in). And settings like ring tones and such.

EDIT: I just stumbled on this: http://ppckitchen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=603
Looks like this should do the trick. Let me know if you have any tips in addition to that.

EDIT #2: It only tells me how to copy files around. It doesn't tell me how to select the today screen I want by default.

Yes you can, I ran across this kitchen in my throwback mood and LOVED it. Getting ready to make a 6.1 rom for myself. Here is a link for a cab to ext converter that is super easy.

These guys deserve major credit.

BTW, thanks scrosler for the renewed interest. Bought the wife and evo and loved the speed, but still can't convert to droid. Ran across your kitchen and forgot how fast and smooth 6.1 is. Also, loved the look of your transparent clock rom from your kitchen. Good design never gets old.

[sureshot007]

I know I keep piling on the questions - I really appreciate the help. Searching sometimes get exhausting.

I would like the top and bottom curtains to be black. So I'm assuming I have to edit the theme. What's the best/easiest way to do that?

6.1 is a work horse. Like XP is. May not be as pretty as 6.5 but gets the job done quite nicely!
