Thank you very much for your interest! I believe we were all noobs at one point so any flaming toward you would be nothing other than disrespectful. So ask away!

I do plan on creating a tut for beginners because I believe creating a Rom via kitchen can be pretty easy. Most packages are out there in EXT form, Just finding them is the work. It will be detailed and WILL be step by step. It will Mainly focus on how to get the packages you want to use converted and integrated. I tried to do most of the work and make it easy to understand just by opening the directory and using what's there as examples for customizing.

If you want to just build what I have then...

1. Open Nega's HTC CP v2.5.0.1.exe
2. Click BUILD A ROM and wait for the Kitchen to load
3. Once the Kitchen is up, load an .ERV file of your choice from Load Rom option on the top left
4. Browse through the packages and double-click packages to either enable or disable(such as carrier or application)
5. Click Create Rom when ready to build
6. Wait and when its ready it will prompt for you to flash, assuming your ready to.

Thanks for the kind words negamann.
Just wanted to ask...
what is the difference in an OEM and EXT.
if i want to add my purchased cab files for eg.. resco explorer onto my rom, do i add it as a EXT or OEM? Which folder should i add them to?
Also how can i change the SYS Builds? Do i need to change the XIP files also?
and if so which folders do i add them to?
Also what is the difference between a Kitchen and Kitchen ROM?
btw looking forward to that tutorial!!!!!
thanks and appreciate your help.

OK, Here's a start. I've created a small setup with instructions to get you from a CAB to an OEM to an EXT with somewhat detailed instructions. Certainly a start

Basically all OEM's have are better security. Ext's are just ALOT easier to work with. You can find info about the differences searching these forums actually.

I just added a little setup that will set you on your way in this very post

As for SYS. Most of them are set up for you these days. A friend and I are working on a quick reorganizer that will do it all for you. Be patient and it will be worth it.

The Kitchen Builds the Kitchen Rom. The Roms are there for you to test and see if the Kitchen is worth downloading

Hey, I just wanted to say thanks again for posting your own kitchen. I tried it for cooking a rom before I switch to the darkside and now have an Epic. I see that only 6 people have hit the thanks button. I'm sure at least 60 have downloaded, but few hit the thanks button so here's another thanks from me.

Thanks VERY MUCH Timberwolf!

You are very correct! The download stats are Impressive, but not many Thanks. The stats are enough to keep me updating

Just a side note: I've rarely had posts regarding issues with the kitchen. I'm just one guy so please let me know if there are any problems. I assume no posts, no problems.

hey there, quick question, do i need to do anything special to SYS builds to import them into the kitchen i.e. recmodding and what not. Because i cannot get new builds that i sort to boot correctly but they all work fine for OSKitchen...

[pctek4456]

I am having a problem, I used to be able to build roms with nega's kitchen until i downloaded the newest release. Now it gets stuck at Platformrebuilder for about 30 mins and then gets stuck again after that. Took me about 2 hrs to complete the building process. What could be going on here? any ideas?
