Installing Android Kitchen

Installing Android Kitchen

Android Kitchen needs Java; you’ll find it in the ‘Ubuntu Software Center’.

• Launch your Linux browser and head over to Android Kitchen on GitHub to download the latest version of the ROM Kitchen (at the time of writing this was

version 0.224). Click on the zip icon and download it

Installing Android Kitchen

Now in your user folder create a new folder called ‘kitchen’ and copy the contents of the ‘Android-Kitchen-0.224 folder into that ′new folder.

Running the kitchen

• If you’re using Xubuntu right-click the ‘kitchen’ folder in the Thunar file manager and select ‘Open Terminal Here’. This is a quick way to launch a Terminal screen that automatically opens in the ‘kitchen’ folder.

The Android Kitchen menu: everything you need to customise a ROM.

Finding ROMs

• Before we can start cooking ROMs we need a ROM to start with. If you have a Samsung phone Sammobile is about the best place to grab stock ROMs.

The sample ROM file we’re using as it was downloaded is ‘i9100xwlsh_i9100opslsb_ops.zip’.

Finding ROMs

Copy that file to your /home/<username>/downloads/ folder.

Finding ROMs

Finding ROMs

• Most Samsung ROMs come as ZIP files with a ‘.TAR.MD5 archive inside. ′Use the Thunar file manager to rename the file and drop the ‘.MD5 ′extension so it just becomes a TAR file.

Finding ROMs

Grab this file and copy it to the Kitchen’s ‘original_update’ subfolder.

• Head back to the Terminal with the Kitchen app running and select ‘Option 1 – we need to create a working folder for our customised ROM.′

• Use the default working folder option provided and press the Enter key to continue. Android Kitchen should then show your ROM file in its list of ‘Available ROMs’.

Finding ROMs

• Select the ROM number and press Enter. Android Kitchen will begin expanding the ROM into the working folder ready for us to start customising.

When it’s done you’ll have the option to see an information panel about the ROM including whether it already has root access and other useful extras.

SuperSU o superusuario?

• When you’re ready to add root access to your ROM press ‘2’ on the main menu.

• As soon as you do you have to decide which superuser app you want installed. Superuser is essentially an app that allows you to control how other apps interact with your root access.

BusyBox

Another option you can add to your ROM is BusyBox.

Zipaligning all apps

• Zipaligning your ROM is something you should do to minimise RAM usage.

Opciones Android de cocina

• Cuando hayas terminado con eso y volver al menú de Android Cocina verás opción '5' que es zipalign todos los archivos APK para optimizar el uso de RAM.

Rebuilding the ROM

Finally the last step we’ll look at is simply rebuilding your ROM. To do that you just select option ’99’ from the Android Kitchen menu
