need some help and pointers on cooking a rom

[djurban]

OK i tried all the rom's and their great but some have what i want and some don't then there's the fast they all have something that i don't need or want

so i plan on cooking my own rom

so here is what i need

what is a good kitchen to use

and since i use sprint/boost mobile, what apps are mandatory for sprint

also i plan maybe using winmo 6.1 since the stock rom for me seems to have the best battery life
