Hi,
I am experiencing some problems using dumprom. I downloaded it and extracted the content of an exe updater to get the "nk.nbf" os rom (w2k3).
After that, I tried ... :
Code:
dumprom nk.nbf -v -d toto
... to extract the content of this os rom but nothing happens ... dumprom seems to launch because the dos promt doesn't reappear and i need to quit using ctrl+c.
How can I extract files from 1.4x "nk.nbf" os rom (w2k3) ?
Thanks in advance,
Tristan
dumprom is working only with nk.nba files ...
you have to decompress nk.nbf in nk.nba with xda2nbftool or xda3 nbftool
First, thanks for your reply.
I tried to use xda3nbftool with the nk.nbf file I want to use but I got an error saying the password seems to be incorrect :
Code:
D:\HTC\ROMs\2003\BA_TMNL_14200_115_11300_Ship>xda3nbftool -x -t NK.nbf
xda3nbftool -x NK.nbf NK.nba 0xef29def0

assword
xda3nbftool -x ms_.nbf ms_.nba 0x8e86c6cc
WARNING: this does not look like a nbf header, possible you provided the wrong p
assword
If I use the outputed nk.nba file, I got the same error ... dumprom hanging ...
I also tried to use the "Blue Angel Extended ROM Tool.exe" tool and got a nk.fat file but when I tried the dumprom tool on it, I got an error message :
Code:
D:\HTC\ROMs\2003\RUU_2.2_OrangeFR_v5.31.2.138_ship>dumprom nk.fat -v -d dump
unable to determine loading offset for nk.fat
I saw on Wiki that this tool only works with type I rom and the rom I am playing with is type II. They are talking about some tricks but I don't find them in the Wiki. If someone, know how to trick type II rom ...
No idea ?
Hi All,
I am trying to extract the xip.bin portion from the NK.NBA file (mpx200).
When I use rommaster I get an xip.bin file which I can use with XIPPORT but I don't like the size of this file. I do get usable files as output from XIPPORT
I use:
ROMMASTER -w 5 -b 0x001000 nk.nba -x -o xip.bin
it produces:
C:\romtool\XIPtool>rommaster -w 5 -b 0x01000 nk.nba -x -o xip.bin
[Info] It is a common ROM.
[Warning] o32_rom(0x820c5ea0)'s o32_data at 0x00000000 is zero.
[Warning] Found dif-referenced region [OLD] Address=0x821732a0 Length=0x00

[Warning] Found dif-referenced region [New] Address=0x821732a0 Length=0x00

[Warning] Memory Block(0x80141000,0x8019ad0c) overlap with Block(0x80142d3
c,0x80142d68).
[Info] New rom filename is 'xip.bin'.
xip.bin is now 33.936.532 bytes ?? it should not be so big ??
Using the file with XIPPORT produces about 1,78 Mb of usable data. I can unpack and pack the modules and files just fine.. creating an xip_out.bin however is not the same size
xip_out.bin is 33.927.840 bytes ??
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong???
Thanks
Thanks to all the ROM Guru's for not keeping this secret
I thought that you guys would be happy when someone is still interested in supporting this old device ??
Anyway to answer my own question:
dump -o 0x140000 nk.nba xip.bin
use this xip.bin in xipport
dump / add / delete / modify as required
write address in xipport 140000
write back in nk.nba
For what you do it?
For istall WM 6.1 ?
Starting with ababrekar's brilliant expose' on how to manually port an XIP from one device to another, there has been a great deal of attention paid to the process of getting the XIP.BIN isolated from the rest of the ROM.
I thought that I could try to contribute with the information others have shared with me. Ultimately, it may prove to be beneficial if there were a development thread dedicated to extracting the XIP.BIN.
credit to dcd, vetvito, ababrekar, gguruusa, lennysh. noonski and of course, all those who develop and update the various tools!
First off, you're best off if you start with a RUU/WWE from HTC/Sprint/Bell. etc.
1) The very first step in this process is to extract the NBH file that includes the OS. Do this by using WinRAR or WinZip to open the executable and look for the largest file with the extension NBH. In the case of our example, that file is VOGUIMG.nbh.
2) The next step is to break VOGUIMG.nbh into it's various pieces by executing the following:
Code:
nbhextract.exe VOGUIMG.nbh
The result is the following screen output:
Code:
=== NBHextract v1.0
=== Extract contents from HTC NBH files
=== (c)2007 xda-developers.com
=== by: pof & TheBlasphemer based on itsme perl scripts
Device: VOGU10000
CID: VZW__001
Version: 3.14.605.1
Language: USA
Extracting: 00_SPL.nb
Extracting: 01_MainSplash.nb
Encoding: 01_MainSplash.bmp
Extracting: 02_SubSplash.nb
Encoding: 02_SubSplash.bmp
Extracting: 03_Unknown.nb
Extracting: 04_OS.nb
We are after the XIP, which is contained within the file 04_OS.nb
3) The next step is to break 04_OS.nb into it's various pieces by executing the following:
Code:
nbsplit.exe –titan 04_OS.nb
The result is the following files:
Code:
04_OS.nb.extra
04_OS.nb.payload
We're still not there yet, as the XIP is contained inside 04_OS.nb.payload.
The address where the XIP.BIN ends can be found with imgfsfromnb:
Code:
rename 04_OS.nb.payload to OS.nb.payload
imgfsfromnb OS.nb.payload imgfs.bin
output:
Sector size is 0x800 bytes
ImgFs partition starts at 0x00680000 and ends at 0x05680000
Dumping IMGFS at offset 0x006c0000 (size 0x04fc0000)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In the next step, we use RomMaster and we feed it the start address and end address of the XIP.
Remember, these start and end addresses will vary from device to device and in the case of the same device but a custom rom, the address can vary from one custom rom to the other.
Ababrekar has suggested "the best way to find out the start address for each partition would be from the LBA in MBR region"
In the case of the Vogue, when dealing with non-custom ROMs, the XIP usually begins at 0x00320000.
So, the start address is 0x00320000 and you use imgfsfromnb.exe to get the end address 0x006c0000 and feed these two parameters as part of the input to RomMaster:
Code:
RomMaster.exe -x -w 5 -s 0x00320000 -e 0x006c0000 OS.nb.payload -o xip.bin
What this does is output a file (XIP.BIN) comprised of all the data between the two (-s START -e END) addresses (-s 0x00320000 -e 0x006c0000) fed into RomMaster.
XIP.BIN
None of this have I discovered myself. It is a compilation of instructions that I received from members credited above. What we could do with this thread is use it as a discussion point for others who have or are having problems getting the XIP out of the os.nb.payload.
Best regards,
-boggsie
bookmarked!
thank you very much for this information!
Awesome to see people like you getting such amazing info ot inthe open This is bound to help many Thanks and bookmarked to keep an eye on it

im running x64, tried with x64 binaries, and i also tried using 32bit binaries. furthermore, my RUU is onlt 1.15GB. Also, x86 (there is not such thing as x32) can handle 3gb files.
thanks so much for the tool though, everything else workes, I juse used a script I found from another developer to get the .zip, then used your tool for all the other features.

hi is there any chance to add the Desire HD. As i am trying to merge a Orange UK RUU for Desire DHD and they never released the last RUU with all the OTA's to make a New RUU with all the OTA's included.
I have made a Nandroid backup after all the OTA's was installed to the phone i even have all the OTA's just need a way to extract the rom.zip (easy from exe file not a issue) add the changed .img files such as radio, system, hboot recovery rcdata lib.img and make a new rom.zip and ruu.exe any way this can be done just tried with your tool and got invalid htc aes encrypted zip.
Thanks in advance
The maximum and minimum cpu frequencies allow by the Kernel can be set to all the Android ROM ever made for the HP TOUCHPAD until now and forever!
This is apply as a native setting ( as shipped from the factory, we could say )
The ROM will not be modify, no need for ROOT access or install SuperSu or any Apps.
It can be done to an existing installed ROM, no need to re-flash, is safe and will not damage your installation or prevent you from using your TP. Even if you do not do it right, you will get your TP running as always.
This is only done in a Linux OS, I am using ubuntu, which it can also be run under a Virtual Machine in any other OS.
1. Get the boot.img from the zip ROM or the current uImage from the TP boot directory.
(The boot.img must be copy to the root/hpboot directory of the PC, not on the tablet)
2. Run each of this commands separately in terminal in the directory the boot.img is.
dumpimage -i boot.img kernel.uImage
dumpimage -i boot.img -p 1 ram
dd if=ram of=ramdisk.img.gz bs=64 skip=1
gunzip ramdisk.img.gz
mkdir ramdisk; cd ramdisk
cpio -i < ../ramdisk.img
3. Go to the ramdisk direcoty and open this file in a text editor:
init.tenderloin.power.rc
Copy and Paste under # CPU Scaling and # CPU boost the following:
Note: You can add different settings to each cpu0 or cpu1.
Different frequencies to each and also assigned different Governors to each cpu.
You have total and individual control.
# CPU Scaling
# Replace the numbers at the first two lines at the end with the frequencies your TP can handle.
# Replace the numbers at the last two lines at the end with the frequencies your TP can handle.
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 192000
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 192000
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 1782000
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 1782000
# Configure Performance Governor
# This is optional, but it will speed boot time using both CPU at maximum frequencies.
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor "performance"
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor "performance"
# CPU boost
# Set your desire speed can not be higher than your maximum frequencies.
write /sys/module/cpu_boost/parameters/boost_ms 20
write /sys/module/cpu_boost/parameters/sync_threshold 1782000
write /sys/module/cpu_boost/parameters/input_boost_freq 1782000
You can configure the type of governor after the system finished booting on this line. Is all up to the Kernel and your choice, but interactive is good.
# Configure Interactive
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor "interactive"
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor "interactive"
4. Save the changes and repack the ramdisk with kernel.
Open Terminal in the ramdisk folder and paste:
find . | cpio --create --format='newc' | gzip > ../ramdisk_Pack.img
5. Go to the folder where the original boot.img file is and you should have a file ( ramdisk_Pack.img )
Paste the following two commands:
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C none -a 0x00000000 -n "TENDERLOIN MAX CPU" -d ./ramdisk_Pack.img ./ramdisk.uImage
mkimage -A arm -T multi -C none -n "Tenderloin Android MAX CPU" -d kernel.uImage:ramdisk.uImage uImage.Android_MAX_CPU
6. There is a file name uImage.Android_MAX_CPU in the same folder as your original boot.img, copy it to your TP boot directory and reboot.
If you enter a wrong frequency and it did not finished then do a hard reset and select the other boot image and use it as always. If it finished booting then you are running faster than ever!
To take in consideration:
The Kernel in the ROM has the frequencies that supports, most of the ROM comes with a top frequencies of 1782000. The SKZ kernel allows for a maximum frequency of 1890000.
The HP Touchpad where made with different suppliers of components. Due to this differences not all supports the same maximum frequencies. Very few can work under 1890000 or 18360000. But you can get lucky and have one. You should know and test the maximum speed that it will take, you can do that with Kernels apps before making modifications to the Boot Image, also the minimum frequencies are important as well.
The advantages of creating your own personal Maximum Speed Boot Image:
1 You will get faster boot time as the CPUs are set to work after the system starts the booting process and do not have to wait until the GUI starts and the Kernel app applies the settings.
2. Keep your ROM secure, no ROOT and no Super User, use it as is.
3. Less apps to install to take space and waste of Memory. Kernel apps and Super User have background services that are all time running just to give you the extra speed. Other apps can get the extra Ram for more processing.
4. There is more benefits of running the device at a higher frequency with no extra processing power, than have multiple apps to fine tune your CPU and governors but use resources.

It may be copied wrong. It should be: cpio --create -–format=’newc’ (not one dash but two, i.e. not -create, -format, but --create, --format)
The working path shows: [email protected]:/mnt/g/devices/tenderloin/hpboot$
I am not a Linux guru, but it look the boot.img is on the root of the tablet and not the PC.
The commands will only work properly if the directory is created in the root of the PC no where else.
((correction))
Yes, you are correct, is something about pasting a double dash that it turns into a hyphen (single dash). When editing the post it shows as intended, double dash. When publish, shows as a single dash, unless the font size is change on here and type again.
How I did it:
Enter the command in ubuntu terminal ( worked ) then copy and paste into LibreOffice Writer.
Write the guide, then copy and paste into the forum, to avoid any mistakes.
Then surprise ! a double dash is change to a hyphen and I am not even aware of it..!
Thanks for correcting!

I thought that, too, but there wouldn't be enough room for the dd command to work, and the error message wouldn't have been a cpio error.
my path:
[email protected]:~/hpboot$
There should not be any mounted device anywhere.

I can not see the picture you attached and the link does not work.
Are you doing all the commands inside a Linux machine?

I did it in windows 10 Ubuntu bash last time , I will try it properly in a Linux machine again. Thanks.

The problem was on the formatting on my post. When I paste the guide for some reason it shows as a hyphen instead of a double dash.
I corrected the error. This is how it should be, also should work in the windows10 linux subsystem.
find . | cpio --create --format='newc' | gzip > ../ramdisk_Pack.img
Stuck on step 5.
Not clear where to "paste" the 2 lines. I "pasted" them in terminal but get the following:
Usage: mkimage -l image
-l ==> list image header information
mkimage [-x] -A arch -O os -T type -C comp -a addr -e ep -n name -d data_file[:data_file...] image
-A ==> set architecture to 'arch'
-O ==> set operating system to 'os'
-T ==> set image type to 'type'
-C ==> set compression type 'comp'
-a ==> set load address to 'addr' (hex)
-e ==> set entry point to 'ep' (hex)
-n ==> set image name to 'name'
-d ==> use image data from 'datafile'
-x ==> set XIP (execute in place)
mkimage [-D dtc_options] [-f fit-image.its|-F] fit-image
-D => set all options for device tree compiler
-f => input filename for FIT source
Signing / verified boot not supported (CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE undefined)
mkimage -V ==> print version information and exit
Use -T to see a list of available image types
Any help please?
Thanks.

5. Go to the folder where the original boot.img file is and you should have a file ( ramdisk_Pack.img )
Paste the following two commands:
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C none -a 0x00000000 -n “TENDERLOIN MAX CPU” -d ./ramdisk_Pack.img ./ramdisk.uImage
mkimage -A arm -T multi -C none -n “Tenderloin Android MAX CPU” -d kernel.uImage:ramdisk.uImage uImage.Android_MAX_CPU
go to this post and run the script, if all work on your system then you have everything to build it.

Thanks for your reply.
I was in that folder (where ramdisk_Pack.img is) in terminal, then I entered/pasted those commands in terminal...
What am I doing wrong? Explain it to me like I'm 5yrs old please. LOL :laugh::silly:
Thanks a million!

My apologies, you did everything right. The error was in the command I posted which is now corrected.
This is how it happen:
I created the commands in ubuntu text editor, then wrote the instructions in LibreOffice Writer, then copy and paste everything to this forum. Then the apostrophe character got changed and that is why the command was not working.
I tested the commands one by one and I was able to finish the process, you should be able to do it also. This is a learning process and I thank you for trying it and finding out the errors.
Redo everything again as I also corrected the changes for the CPU speed.
