You can think I use NFSFAN's kitchen all you want, but I'm using PPCKitchen's and they have increased their ROM Protection so only thy can decompile it correct and know exactly where everything is.....

See below...

I am not here to cast a vote in either direction, just to understand why the errors when I dont get it with any other ROM.

Let me rephrase what I have said. While whodamans rom may not have "protection", his rom has something that is preventing it from being de-compiled and reassembled into a base rom from which to build on.

spetrillo: I too do not have any problems when decompiling any other rom on here. Whether it was built with the ppckitchen, or dogguy's kitchen. That is why i chose the general word "protection". He has assured us there is none in his rom. Just choose a different base.

I'm not going to talk anymore about this now, other than the methods used in this thread will not work with whodamans roms.
