Re: To cook or not to cook?

unless a certain chef has an extremely made over rom that cant be done with the kitchen then i'll be cooking my own.

ive come from the apache kitchen scene, so this is my preferred method.

Re: To cook or not to cook?

Well I just read in the main kitchen thread and saw that the current HTC touch keyboard in the kitchen isn't working right but will be fixed in the update so I'm going to use my favorite chef's rom until then. The HTC keyboard is a deal breaker for me.

Yes, beyond what you can imagine.
I had a friend w/ a titan, and I was trying to get him to try a custom rom.
He had no clue how to do any of this stuff. I showed him some threads about unlocking the titan, and then pointed him to the PPCKitchen.
He had a new rom the same day, and has not had any problems.

Even if you don't use the kitchen for you own rom, you should definitely install it and look at it. It's awesome what they've done.:headbang:

I had to do some manual manipulation to get UC to work along with the animated boot splashs for each carrier.

I loved cooking my own roms on the 6700, but I haven't figured out all the reg hacks the chef's are using, and I don't really have the time to do it right now.

The rom I cooked has everything I wanted, but the UC didn't work, and it's seems very slow in response time when I try to open a program.

For now, I'm sticking to the stuff that already exist, and maybe down the road use the kitchen.
The nice thing about the roms you guys make is that there are several people using it.
When/If a issue comes up, several people see it, and work on a solution.
On my personal cooked rom, I'm the only one fixing the issues, and it get tiresome.

Re: To cook or not to cook?

I would make my own ROM but it seems like a whole lot of work to figure out the technical side of ROM making.

probably because the default page pool is only 4MB right now - next release has it updated

Not true...the kitchen has the broadest userbase of all. Sure, some minute problem might be just you working on it, but as for general functionality, you have thousands of users across multiple devices working on it...and you don't have to read all the threads, because updater will bring the fix to you.

It's trivial to make a ROM using the kitchen. Even a fairly pimped one.

Re: To cook or not to cook?

I'm running my own cooked ROM right now. Love it!

Now if I could only figure out how to make OEMs for my Cubes. Anybody know how to convert a CAB to an OEM?

Provide a set of "personal OEM's" and a selections.txt file so that folks could still benefit from the work of a chef (unique skins come to mind) but also take advantage of the flexibility and customization available in the PPCKitchen.

That's the right idea. The kitchen is already set up to accept add on packs from chef's, making tailoring of your favorite chef's rom an easy thing. For the most part, this is a matter of educating chef's on how to package their stuff. On the plus side, once you learn how to package using the new buildos, a chef's customizations are easily transported from rom to rom, device to device.
