Unlock Extended ROM - Sable

Has somebody managed to unlock the extended ROM ?
The registry hacks which work on other HTC devices don't work !!

is there extented rom part? after hard reset automatically run customization? I guess no.... I think there is no EXT_ROM...

I just want to uninstall some of the standard HP applications to free up some space. I only have experience with HTC devices using a ROM in which the customizations are stored in cab-files.
Is there also a way for the hw6915 ?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325683
there is a utility that allows to unlock a hidden folder named "2"
but to unload HP crap i guess you can just delete from the startup folder in wondows? you can see it using resco file explorer or something like that showing hidden files.

Destroying the registry so a given functionality dies, is not the same as enabling/disabling. I doubt these programs have simple on/off switches in the registry, so instead I suggest you reinstall them.
Set a browser such as the Resco Explorer to show files in ROM, then locate and execute the file loadvdisk.exe in the Windows folder. This will give you access to the Extended_ROM folder, located in root. From there you can reinstall what you want. Names of the files you will need are selfexplanatory, the rest you can find a description on here on forum, by using the search function.

camera apps

i 've deleted something:
i've lost original composition templates (my daughter like pics with them....)
how can i reinstall original camera apps?
or somebody can mail me that templates?
thanks
as far as i know, unhide your extended rom (hard reset, and then a soft reset b4 your device starts installing the custom applications), and then navigate to the extended rom folder and install anything camera-related...
if you haven't done anyhacks then just hard reset it will automatically insatll
Dont make a hard reset
use the program LoadVDisk.exe or .lnk in windows folder of the device.
This will show you your extended_rom folder, where the original software is in, and you can reinstall the software you need.
Hope to help you with that.
If you cannot find the file, dont look with the original file-explorer, use another tool like total commander (its free), and let you show all files!

How to replace my Ext_Rom with another one!!!

Hi Guys
Is there anybody who can guide me if it is possible to replace the Ext_Rom of a WM6 with WM5 or not?!!!
Actually I had a problem with my Ext_Rom...(There's a CLEARVUE...a default program for Reading PDF files which I hate it,but I can't prevent it of being installed while costumization of WM5 ) So I wondered If I can change My Ext_Rom with the one whcih has not Clearvue inside?
If yes,then how???
Thanks
Easy.
Go to the WiKi and search for "unlocking extended ROM of Prophet".
The extended ROM is just a collection of cabs. On the Prophet (at least in WM 5 not sure if they changed it in WM 6) you can open it with a simple registry change and then manually delete or add cabs. (note that cabs must be signed to automatically install after hard reset)
I looked over the backup of my Ext_ROM (from official i-mate ROM) but could not determine which cab installs ClearView just by their names.
You could always try them manually one by one or use CECabManager (google) to see whats inside.

Hi Levenum
It's really great to have someone to help you,finally.Thanks a lot,man .Actually I know how to un-hide the Ext_Rom,but the problem is that I can't find the cab that is installing this damn Clearvue program
I'm looking for someone who guide me which Cab is responsible for that(Gives me the name of the cab.file)...or....Any hero who guide me is it possible for me to change my current Ext_Rom with the another one that is not included that damn CLEARVUE???!!!
Thank you again for helping
Heloooooooooooooo
Isn't there anybody who direct me (and many others who have got the similar problem) by just saying how we can get rid of CLEARVUE in the Ext_Rom or at least replacing it with ACROBAR READER?
I already know how to un-hide AND Unlock the extended rom...
I need only the name of the cab file (which installs CLEARVUE),...nothing more...
It's NOT installed in the ExtROM, it's installed in the "base"ROM.

Hi Black Rose
I don't care where this damn software is,and I'm not gonna debate you over it...You just tell me what s the name of the cab.file...And if you are so sure about the location,so tell me also the place of it(Base or Ext-Rom?? )
Thanks anyway
I think clearvue is pre-installed in the base ROM, so there is no cab file to delete.
For me, I just ignore that clearvue or adobe LE is there. I just went ahead and installed Adobe 2.0 and everytime I tap a pdf file, adobe 2.0 opens.
If that doesn't work for you, you can use resco explorer to assign which default prog to open any file... similar to "open with" in XP or Vista.

Hi Putra
Are you sure it's not in the Ext_Rom?Because after a hard reset,whenever I prevent the Ext_Rom of customizing my device (Stop customization),I don't have the CLEARVUE installed on my mobile.
This is why I think it must be somewhere in Ext_Rom.Even some excerpts told me that I have to replace my Ext-Rom with the one which doesn't have CLEARVUE...But he didn't tell me exactly how I can find such a extended Rom and how I can do the replacement...I also needed to know if the replacement may damage the Original Rom of my device or not?
Thanks for helping me, anyway and I would be more appreciated if you help me a little more in that.
Ok, in that case, then it should be in your extrom. However, I also do not know which is the cab file. One way is to prevent the extrom customization, and then manually install each cab from the extrom....
Why don't you just leave clearvue in your device, and simply install adobe 2.0? I don't think clearvue takes that much space...
you can edit the ext_ rom by editing the folder content in WM6
I recomend to use winimage to edit extrom, it will lock the ext rom

HI Chopin
Thanks a lot for helping me to solve this problem,but wou,d you pease elaborate a little bit more...After all,I'm a newbie!!!!!
Just tell me what's this WINIMAGE and also tell me if I would be able to find the cab file of CLEARVUE within my Ext_Rom to erase it or not?!?!
Thanks again
winimage to use with extension.nb, as anewbie let forget how to use this one. if you need to kow, use search you;ll find a lot about how to use this one.
just look in the folder and remove it, or just edit the file Config.txt and remove the cab you don;t wanna install, it is so easy and don't need any clarification.
tell me what ROM do you use

OFF TOPIC: Hi Chopin, can you explain how I can edit the contents of the extrom on WM6?
edit the files. delete any cab you want and instert anycab you want in the folder, but if you add a cab file then edit the file config.txt and and enter the cab file in it

Oops, I meant how do I unlock and unhide the extrom in WM6. What prog do I use?
The last time I tried using WM5 tools on PdaViet 01, it didn't work. I have not tried again. I'm on Gullum v6, btw.
if this is what you want here is the files for unlock, and please ask me more if this was not what u needed
Ok, thanx. I'll try them...
Stop off-topics...let's talk about main topic
Hi dear friends
I noticed that we have been a little been off-topic,so I wanted to recall that we are here to help each other to find a way for "HOW WE CAN DELETE ANY CAB(In my case...CLEARVUE's cab file)INSIDE THE EXT_ROM OR CHANGE IT WITH ANOTHER CAB(Again in my case changing default CLEARVUE with ADOBE ACROBAT)?????
My friends
I even checked the Config.text file within my Ext_Rom,but unfortunately even there was no name and trace of CLEARVUE?!?!!??But I' sure it must be there...since when I stop my device of being costumized after a hard reset,I never see this CLEARVUE in my programs...So that means it must be somewhere in Ext-Rom..Somebody...Some hero....some know-all tell me where?????And under what name?!?!??!??!??!?!?
please, we already answer this question, to help you more, what ROM do you use?

remove file protection

I have a wing withthe standard tmobile ROM and i want to remove certain things like the link for the myfavs junk in the startup folder and the crappy ringtones that come with the device but when i try to delete these files with total commander it says they are protected. how can i remove this protection without purchasing software?
they're built into the rom. you would have to flash a new rom to remove them.
Alternatively, do a hard reset. After you do setup, do a soft reset just before it starts customizing.
another possible solution is to get a file explorer like total commander then click and hold on the file. You can access the properties and change read only. I think its possible to replace the file with a file of the same name...so just create a text file I guess and name it the same as the file you want to get rid of. This should help you improve usability. But afaik removing stuff from the rom doesn't increase your storage memory, that is unless you are running Tadzio's tool first.
or the easy way would to download new Touch it rom for the wing which I'm guessing would have all that T-mobile crap removed.

Help with Extended_ROM

ok, so iv figured out i can use the file explorer - TotalCommander to overwrite the files installed by ''SmartDial.cab'' and now im using my own dial pad skin. (was using resco but it wouldn't overwrite for some reason..)
im trying to make my own extended rom, maybe a whole rom but my dialpad will be included in my extended rom..
for example..
lock: /enabled
cab: /extended_rom/smartdial.cab
**I need a command to install my pics to the windows folder - overwriting the smartdial.cab's pictures**
Lock: /disabled
Rst: /reset
This is why I want to find a way that will simply extract my pictures into the windows folder deleting the one's just installed - So I don't have to go through file by file overwriting them with TotalCommander.
please any help will really be appreciated..
How to unhide & unlock Extended_Rom on HTC HD2 ?
Hi,
Can you tell me how to unhide and unlock the Extended_rom folder on my HTC HD2 (Leo), please?
What are the necessary registry settings that need to be changed? I am interested in installing my file so as that after a hard reset, my app is going to install again without me having to install it manually.
Thank you.
hey, before you start, go to the wiki page.. but, theres no point.lol ive realised that now.lol
you want to install pretty much everything onto your sd so you have more memory on the phone.
