Convert ...Ship.exe rom into OS.nb for the dump with "hypercore" - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I used all the keywords imaginable, i read all the treads that was talking about something that use the words i'm looking for even if the subject wasnt in link. There is absolutely 0 treat talking about dumping a shiped rom. Hypercore need that you place your rom in the Hypercore/extract/source forler but when i run DumpRom.exe it says i need OS.nb file and when i hit enter it says there is no OS.nb file in the file. So what am i gonna do with my shiped.exe rom? Its a wm6 french and i fermly want to keep it and work on this one instead of taking anything that people already worked on and have no idea what as been made to it. Please, someone, is there any way to get the OS.nb from HTC_P4350_FRA_4.17.406.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe ????????

mkrom hangs on welcome screen

I just make the special edition ROM trhought mkrom and I obtain the.nb1 file, but when I flash my xd and make the cold reset, it hangs on the welcome screen, it print the 3 lines in red in the right bottom and after that ..... Nothing....... sniff
Anyone could help me????
I used the .nbf file that comes with the program A of O2.
Thks
that means that the windows kernel, and gsm have initialized.
the system should then proceed to execute the stuff mentioned in registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init.
maybe something went wrong with default.fdf?
I use the default.fdf that comes with the mkrom.zip, I just extract it and copy the nk.nbf file and proceed, I didn´t modify anything.
thks
I try to make another ROM with diferent Default.fdf but it hangs too.
it could be the NK.nbf file???
can you tell me where is a link fot one NK.nbf valid?
I´m going crazy :shock: jeje
thanks
if you use a different source rom, you need to change your default.fdf to
the one from that rom.
thanks for your patience,
I extract the default.fdf from the NK.nbf with dumprom.exe.
and then I use the fdf2reg.pl to create the default.reg and I put this file in the cfg directory, and after that I execute mkrom (sh mkrom.sh NK.nbf)
is that correct???
thanks
I think that the nbf file that I´m using is not a correct verion.
I tried to make a nbf file form jeff´s page but it doesn´t work with the nbf selection.
Do you know where can I find a nbf file that works with mkrom???

nbf file

Okay, I've spent 2 hours trying to obtain this information and am almost giving up.
Where do I obtain my nbf file? I want to change my splash screen but this is proving to be the most obscenely complicated thing I've ever done.
Could anyone post thier T-mobile 2.26 nbf file for me?
search in the Upgrading etc. forum for Wizard, "Cooked Custom Rom How to"
I found that thread and it alreeady assumes you know how to obtain and nbf file. One person gave a link on the ftp for a ROM dump utility and the ftp says that it doesn't allow anonomous logins. I included my user name and password but it wouldn't accept it. Why is this so complicated?
Could someone please tell me how to obtain this file? It's making me crazy. :evil:
Rename the RUU exe file to a rar file and open it, the nk.nbf file is there.Or just run the RUU (but don't click anything) and search your pc for nk.nbf and copy it to a safe location then cancel the Updater.
Thank you so much. In this forum, I read that I was supposed to change it to a zip, which didn't work, this did though.
I would suggest you move any questions regarding this to the Upgrading Forum. That's where you'll get more assistance.

how to edit nk.nbf Files ?

AFAIR you should only generate nbf file using "kitchen", not edit them.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ER2003Edit

(maybe i can drop them from the device in a format that can be open)

I think I read some thing about dumping from the device ! But it's very complicated to do and if you get it wroung then it could damage your device Buzz-dev has a program called grabit see his site it copys the rom from the device to The SD CARD as a *.bin file then you dump that instructions are there, I have attached a zip i found on this site moded a bit for myown use it will dump BA or Hima put it in C:\ and right click it select extract here PS (you need winrar it's free just search xda site for it) My decompilers not complete but should give you some idear or how it works, You say u got explodes kitchen follow his instructions and build his rom when It says put your device in boot loader DON'T. Wait untill the build is finnished Press ctrl + C then look in upgrade folder and you should find an nk.nbf copy this to Swamp395Decompiler folder so you see it with PKGTool then double click BA_Disasemble.bat when that's finnished double click PKGTool.exe then "File" "open" from menu navegate to swampy395decompiler\dump click OK read screen then When that's finnished meun "tools""build packages" you should have some missing files if you look at the one called sys it should look simaler to explodes kitchen!! Then spend some time reading xda site good luck Remember the risk is all your bla bla no responcerbility ETC
I'm learning myself ! But if i can help i will, I'v been Building My own kitchen It's getting close but not got a booting rom yet but soon I HOPE
PPS pda viet rom Don't bump so well
swampy395
It works !
i easily put the nk.nbf file in C:\Swampy395Decompiler\ and start BA Disassemble.bat
a dos window opened and dump the rom in C:\Swampy395Decompiler\dump
all files of the rom are now in this folder and i can edit them.
but i have still some questions:
-how can i make a rom out of the files in \dump ?
-how can i edit registry files ?
-is there a way to change the rom language ?

Just a quick thought you'v got a kitchen and a rom built in that kitchen put the rom back together as it is in the kitchen IE copy the layout you'll find some *.rug files missing download athers himalaya kitchens and read the help and guid files on how to build a kitchen and use explodes kitchen as a referance see if you can put it back together without copying files out of explodes kitchen If you manage that then you should be able to make a higher build kitchen of your own good luck

Making a backup

hi all, i'm trying to make a ROM backup of my device following this metod:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_HowtoDumpRom
I've extracted the .raw files, created the imgfs_raw_data.bin and dumped the ROM, but when i try buildimgfs.exe command i get the classic win32 error and the application crashes..
any suggestions?
tnx
I am having the same exact problem... i really dislike those semi dos promt tools.. its alway a question of running and praying...
userfriendlyness is also something the people here could be looking into....though im grateful for their working apps
Ill be looking into the thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327073 for answers.. Ill keep you posted
Ok i checked the thread.
Seems a lot of people have the same error and not much is said about the error.
but this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2277527&postcount=95
Seems the BuildImgfs.exe command just repacks the files in a similar .bin file.
So its only to be used when coocking i guess
The value of repacking is when you change files.
Hope this clears it up for you!
I also downed Hypercore, which is totally unusable.
At least i do NOT understand the first tutorial!
It says to put a rom file in a certain dir and then start dumprom... but no matter which file i put in the HyperCore\Extract\Source dir it says it cant find the right file (Ive tried 04_os.nb, imgfs_raw_data.bin, Part02.raw, RUU_signed.nbh and RUU_Pharos_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.11.707.1_4.1.13.59_03.15.90_BLUE_Ship.exe nothing, nada, zip, zilch, the big "O", niente)
so there is a big thank you for writing a tutorial which doesnt tutor. hey im not an engineer... just a user pppfffff... ever hear of ... userfriendlyness? usability?

That's correct! You just need to skip the two steps that create the Dump folder and then use the buildimgfs command. It worked for me after I was having the same problem with buildimgfs (for my Elfin).
BTW.. Sorry to bump this old thread.. Just thought it would help others out.
Folowing instructions ???
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
All ok, but someone need to make the stiky, with svreenshots and exact steps like you type this comp will do that
for example I was confused with FLASHDR, at my PHAROS that was "DSK1:" WITH ":" ????? Interesting, isnt it ?
P.S.
For admins :
Sory for bad english and tel me or let me make picture detailed manual for dumping roms. I am not bad with computer and mobile phones but this manual confused me at first
And another P.S.
I dumped my P3470 - Pharos english rom but i can not login on ftp, if someone need rom, PM me.

[PROBLEM] How to convert an extracted OS.nb to an original ROM with nb0 extention

My Device is: I-teq X-bond equal to (Gigabyte gsmart-i64)
Its original OS is WM5 2.3 with original NB0 extention and Here is the official ROM link:
http://www.gigabytecm.com/eng/Downlo...=17&tabIndex=3
I can extract OS.NB from original file but the problem is that I do not know how to Repack and convert new OS.NB to a proper .NB0 file.
So I need your help
My Thread seems to be dead but still I did not find the answer
I google searched about the problem and I found a tool in Modaco, o2util.exe but I do not know that is a proper tool for my goal or not
Nobody here can help me?!!!
At least try to post a working link, as I can't find gsmart-i64 on gigabytecm.com or it's just gsmart-i?

OK Thank you very much for your reply, you are right gsmart-i is equal to gsmart-i64, so you can go ahead with it.
I already did that, but to download a ROM file I must to sign-up and IMEI is required, so I can't download ROM.
Can you upload it somewhere, like 4shared.com or Megaupload.com?

Received your PM, downloding file now.
So step by step:
Take shippend ROM and prepare it for kitchen:
Code:
osnbtool -sp ROM.nb0
you will get two files ROM.nb0.PRE and ROM.nb0.OS.NB
ROM.nb0.OS.NB is OS.nb file you need to use on your kitchen.
After you have done ROM building with kitchen you should get OS.nb file.
Now use osnbtool to insert extra data:
Code:
osnbtool -extra OS.nb
You will get file OS.nb.EXA and now you need to make ROM.nb0 file:
Code:
copy /B ROM.nb0.PRE+OS.nb.EXA NEW_ROM.nb0
I hope this works
Thank you very much for your complete info, These days I'm on vacation.
As soon as possible I'll check the process, but I should say that the very first step for me is to convert back generated OS.nb by osnbtool to newrom.nb0 and check the file with original ROM. however I will let u know my progress and thank u again for your time and help.

Thank u for your detail described process. I followed instruction and generated NEW_ROM.nb0 with generated OS.NB from the first step, but the volume of NEW_ROM.nb0 is different from original ROM.nb0, would u please tell me this is normal or I did something wrong or the generated NEW_ROM.nb0 is usable.
My problem is still persist and I can not reconvert extracted OS.nb to original ROM with nb0 extention
The most famous forum for WM is here, but still my problem has not solved.
Please somebody help!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used osnbtool to extract os.nb from original rom with nb0 extention. but the problem is I can not use osnbtool to use os.nb and generate rom with nb0 extention.
My request here is that is there any other tools that I can figure out my problem or because creator of osnbtool.exe is a chinese guy-WEISUN-, need someone chinese to ask my problem from Weisun.
thank u for your consideration and help
Still no progress?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here are many chefs but no one can help.
As I know XDA forum is the best forum for WM but it seems that they do not consider any other devices except HTCs.
