Except flash.bin and extrom.bin, these files list below may relate to the bootloader...
partition.mbn
osbl.mbn
NPRG8650.hex
fsbl.mbn
ENPRG8650.hex
dbl.mbn
appsboot.mbn
Could I get them from the offical 3.003 ROM using the ANPER's (aka DimICE here) tool ?
Then, which hacked Acer_EUU should used for flashing Custom ROM base on offical 3.003 ROM? hdubli's one or ANPER's one?

Hello all. I got myself into an interesting situation yesterday. I have a Titan that was just sent to me as a warranty replacement (a few hardware keys stopped working). In order to get it up to date, I used my Titan build 21042 kitchen, Radio 3.42.50, and Olipro2.40 SPL ... I had no GPS. I remember having a GPS problem with this radio, so I tried to flash 3.42.30 via USB which apparently can only be done with Olipro1.20 (radio can only be flashed via SD with 2.40 and 2.47) ... THIS IS WHERE I MADE MY BIG MISTAKE!!! ... I flashed Olipro1.20, flashed radio 3.42.30, flashed ROM, flashed nueSPL2.47. The SPL update did NOT take, so now I had 1.20 SPL, 3.42.30 Radio and 5.2.21042 CEOS ... The 1.20 SPL will not load this radio and OS!!!
The ONLY way I could successfully flash the SPL and have it take was to use Olipro 2.40 Unlocker, which uses JumpSPL to load SoftSPL, then flashes HardSPL ... This process needs the device OS running, which I could not get running at this point with incompatible software/firmware/SPL.
I fixed it!!! I had to use a radio and OS that were supported with Olipro1.20 ... I built an NBH file using radio 1.30.00 and DCD's Titan Kitchen 1.6.10, booted the device, modded Olipro's 2.40 Unlocker to use his SoftSPL to update to nueSPL2.47 (replaced the NBH file in the unlocker with nueSPL2.47 NBH file). After nueSPL2.47 was successfully flashed, I then flashed radio 3.42.30 and my 21042 OS ... FINALLY MY PHONE WORKS AGAIN, AND WITH GPS THIS TIME!!!
Here is the NBH file for recovering stuck HardSPL 1.20 (Olipro 1.20).
Here is the modded nueSPL 2.47 unlocker. (Cant upload right now ... Stupid work firewall!!!)
To recover from HardSPL 1.20:
-Flash Recover_SPL_1.20.nbh (from .zip)
-Boot device into OS
-Extract nueSPL 2.47 Unlocker, and run Titanunlocker.bat, follow instructions
To create recovery NBH:
Files Used:
Radio 1.30.00 from VZW 2.09.605.8 ROM Update
OS using dcd's titan kitchen 1.6.10
Modded unlocker - I call it Unlocker nueSPL2.47
Process:
nbhextract "VZW 2.09.605.8 - Radio 1.30.00.nbh"
rename 03_GSM.nb Radio013000.nb (don't worry, its actually CDMA)
(Build ROM with DCD 1.6.10 kitchen, copy RUU_Signed.nbh to working folder)
rename RUU_Signed.nbh dcd_os.nbh
nbhextract dcd_os.nbh
rename 00_OS.nb OS010610.nb
create a text file called NBHGEN_Script.txt with the following:
Code:
TITA100
HTC__001
DCD_1.6.10
WWE
300,Radio013000.nb
400,OS010610.nb
nbhgen NBHGEN_Script.txt
nbhgen will create a new RUU_Signed. Flash this NBH via SD or USB, boot OS, run Unlocker nueSPL2.47 after connecting device to PC via activesync (will flash SPL), flash radio 3.42.30 via SD, flash 21042 (or other GPS enabled ROM) via SD or USB.
After flashing this rom : [Rom][WM6.5][27 Aug'09]New Elfin ROM With Latest build 23034 Xip/Sys
The device stay in the 'smart mobility' screen,
I can't even boot it up first time
I can't turn it on so how can flash back other rom?
Can someone tell me what can I do?
Please Help me. thank you
You can use this Unbricker ROM ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2913636#post2913636. It's the easyest way, without using other WM devices. It worked for me.
You can also use the Elf/Elfin Unbricker (Gold Card) ----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437996. Hadn't tried this one though.
Hope that I helped.

A user of this forum, 911sniper, provided us with an HTC test-only ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=735

Alternate download link:
http://www.4shared.com/file/82315205/ea440324/RUU.html
IMPORTANT: Read the steps below before flashing!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a ROM that can potentially overwrite and/or unbrick a device with an original (non-patched) SPL. It has a wildcard for Model ID (ELF0*****) and CID (11111111).
I don't have a bricked Elf but I tested it with an original CID-locked SPL and it overwrote it and flashed a new generic HTC ROM with the following:
IPL 2.11.1002
SPL 2.11.1000 MFG
ROM version: 2.11.0. WWE
ROM date: 08/14/07
Radio: 02.98.90
CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)
Here are the steps to make it work:
Quote:
Download this ROM from the link above
Two ways to flash:
Rename the file to ELF0IMG.nbh if you want to flash from SD card (you must format the card to FAT32 first)
Put the ROM in a RUU folder that contains the RomUpdateUtility.exe. You must remove any other .NBH files in that folder first.
Start your bricked Elf in bootloader mode (hold down camera button and reset). If you are using the SD card, it should flash right away.
NOTE: If the device flashed successfully but is now stuck at the new boot screen, you are still ok. Now you can flash ANY shipped ROM at the bootloader (if you have an Elfin, flash only an Elfin shipped ROM) and your device will be running again. If you can't flash a shipped ROM after successfully flashing the Unbricker ROM, then make a Gold Card and follow the steps in that thread.
NOTE: If the Unbricker ROM doesn't work then make a Gold Card and use it again on that card.
NOTE:
One thing I noticed is that you cannot use the white screen method (elf-uspl.exe) after you flash this ROM. If you try that, then the message "Not in use" pops up under the penguin. However, you can flash ANY shipped ROM from bootloader after this unbricker ROM has been flashed. From there, you can do white screen method and then flash the Hard-SPL/USPL/cooked ROM.
Hello, friends,
I use the custom rom 23566 with driver version 3.003c, can I flash back to the official rom 21883 with driver version 2.003?
I am worrying whether I will brick my S200...
Please give me some advice, and I will appreciate your help very much!
you should be ok. (i have not try to downgrade my rom, so flash at your own risk!)
make sure you have over 50% battery before you flash.

Thnk you for answering.
I want know whether someone had tried it.
I feel that the new roms exhaust battery very fast, I would like to try some old roms and old drivers. My rom language is simple Chinese, there is no official roms with 3.003c for simple Chinese. I did not think the drivers work well...
no u cant. once you upgrade to official latest ROM. old official ROM can not be revert back. because the official ROM can detect version. once it found your ROM is the latest. it does not allow you to flash back to previous official version.
u can flash it to other cooked ROM and then only flash back to the previous Official ROM.
i tried it.

That is wrong! Download Acer Original Firmware version 2.0, extract it with ToolsByANPER to get flash.bin and extrom.bin.
Download one of Custom ROMs, i doesn´t matter which one (my Modular ROM or Arto´s Clean ROM). Extract the zip file.
Now copy in the original Acer flash.bin and extrom.bin into the extracted Custom ROM folder and overwrite the existing files.
Start the flash procedure with ACER_EUU.exe and follow the instructions.
Why do people state something and not search little bit more?

Thank you very much, guy. I think I have got answer from you. I think you mean that the driver information on the first screen is included in the flash.bin, do you?
As I know, the .amf file can be extracted to about 8 files, including .mbn and .bin files. And we can only flash any of them at one time( but the partition.mbn always must be flashed at the same time), a Chinese friend had tried and got these conclusion. I wrongly thought that the driver information on the first screen is included in one of the .mbn file. So I just thought that these "bios" files(.mbn files) are different in different rom version. I will check that whether they are the same.

You can also just extract the original acer 2.0 ROM and put the cracked ACER_EUU.exe from Custom ROM folder into original Acer 2.0 ROM folder and start the flash procedure.
That is gonna give you also the 2.0 Radio and bootloader.
If you do as i first said - then you will get 2.0 firmware but with 3.0 Radio and bootloader - (3.0 Radio is better because Acer thit some fixes on the GPS, anyway newest Radio is always better).
EDIT: The information on the bootscreen is about Radio and Bootloader, not about drivers - drivers are integrated into flash.bin.
I have checked that, for official 3.003b/c, the only one file different is appsboot.mbn .
Of cause, image.bin and extrom.bin are different between different languages. It's obvious.
The "partial update method" seems valuable for other system part (such as RADIO) keep the same.
Moreover, for the recent patch, Patch_Acer_1.0_WM65_GPS signal , the major change is amss.mbn .
For ENPRG8650.hex and NPRG8650.hex, these two files could be checking mbn files are correct.

Hello everyone!
So in these last couple of days I wanted to restore original ROM (Android 1.6) back from Cyanogenmod, but unfortunately I can't get any available stock ROM to work, installation of .zip s end up with "E: Unable to install............... .zip (bad)", the only one that worked so far was Cyanogenmod 7.2.0. Also I can't use any RUU to install ROM, because I'm using Linux, and RUU software doesn't work properly. I'm using Clockworkmod Recovery 5.0.2.0, my bootloader is unlocked and I have rooted phone. And I wanted to know if anyone has got original ROM's backup that would work for my recovery to reinstall original Android 1.6.
Thanks!
Have you tried to extract ROM zip file from ruu package installer?
https://github.com/kmdm/unruu/ (I've not tested)
Just found this thread that can help you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711302 (untested too, I've retired my tattoo long time ago )
If you're trying to flash donut roms try to downgrade recovery (for which i can remember from old days, very old Rom uses amend scripting language for flashing instead of edify)
Bye
