Create your own OEMs easily.

[paynej]

EDIT: Here's a direct link to the latest version - http://rapidshare.com/files/78803302...ge_creator.rar

Note: It defaults to Italian, but can be changed to English in the bottom right-hand corner of the first screen.

To use it, extract the archive and run Packages Creator. Select the language you want in the bootom right corner of the window.

Click on the OPEN CAB FILE button and find the CAB you wish to convert.

Click on the 7th icon from the left (tooltip says "Extract CAB files with original names in a folder"),

Click on OK when the directory selector screen appears (I've read notes about not changing the default it selects, so I always accept what it defaults to).

CLose the CAB Analyser window.

You will then be presented with a window that allows you to assing links to any of the executables in the package (so they show up in the program menu). You can experiment with this for custom settings; but when you are through click on "DONE"

Back in the Packages Creator, click on the button labeled "Complete Package".

Now you have an OEM folder in the same directory that your CAB was in.

Burn and have fun!





I recently discovered there is an app out there which pretty much does make creating OEMS seem almost like drag and drop.

Check this link on xda-dev http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...ckages_creator Look at the tool called packages creator in the middle of the first post.

It will open a cab, and export it and all of it's keys into a neatly written OEM folder. It even has the ability to mass-rename files in an OEM to avoid name conflicts when cooking.

This little beauty has worked for me on well over 99% (I can't claim 100% because I'm sure there's something out there that didn't work) of the OEMs I've created.

I find the program to be almost as valauble as the kitchen itself.

EDIT: I cant find it! I see packages creator but there is no link! it says UPPED: but there is nothing else! I am logged in at xda btw...

Maybe you could post it?




B-E-A-Utiful!!!!

Great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find great find!!!


Definitely using this when the kitchen for the upcoming ROM is released.... in ohhhh what, a year?

Do you, by any chance, know of a way I can compile a massive amount of .cabs into a single .cab so I can install all my main-memory apps quickly? That would be a godsend.

Thanks!

is there any way you can upload the packages creator rar here? I clicked on the rapidshare link but it says file not found

[knytphal]

I found a copy of it in post #405 in the thread from above.

How come its in a diff language? and how do you work it?

[paynej]

I just added a link to my first post with a current Rapidshare link. Someone can get it and put it on the FTP if they like - I don't have a directory there of my own.

I would be curious to see reports from people who encounter CABs that cannot be converted; then maybe we can figure out together why not.

By far the best piece of software I have stumbled on in quite a while. As you can see on the other site; it was been around since at least July of 2007; but not many people know of it apparently. I was surprised that I had stumbled onto something back before Christmas that wasn't already plastered all over PPCGEEKS.

Sifting through both sites looking for gems like this is almost as fun a bargain hunting at the local yard sales! >grin<

Can this do anything better than the OEMIzer?

The only way is if it would handle the DLL file....but I don't think this has that capability.

I haven't used the OEMizer recently; but this one will automatically rename files for you if you have lots of duplicates from other OEMs.

That was the reason I stopped using oemizer and went looking for something else.

I'm sorry, but what do you mean by handle the dll file?
