extracting the contents of .nbf files on a windows pc? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

how can it be done?
is there a wiki page about it?

fyi: i need cab files from extended roms

use ER2003Edit,find it in ftp ... :wink:
here u go ftp://[email protected]/Tools/

i thought that was not possibe for anything else then the XDAII? I need it for all devices, basically
What this tool can't do:
* Edit other ROM images than those for the xda2

i've heard xda2jojo talking about newer version that doesn't require password....i'll dig in the forum...brb :wink:

"Download the latest version of windows mobile 2003 rom editor that bypass the password... "this is what xda2jojo said in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=26094&highlight=
theoretically,by bypassing the password u can open any ext ROM....theoretically....ok....i didn't try it :wink:

I can open up extended rom files for the Himalaya no problem, but this too wont allow me to open extended rom files from ROMs other then the one meant for the Himalaya...so I cant open extended rom files for Magician/ Universal/ Wizard/Blue Angel...thats what I mean
thx for the effort though

sorry i couldn't help .....but i've got this idea concerning blueangel.....try unlocking the ext ROM and extract the files :wink: ....though,u still need a blueangel device,and i don't know if other device have ext ROM unlocker..

no worries

PPC 2003 and mkrom

Any brave soul try using mkrom in conjucntion with the 2003 ROM? I think I might give it a shot here in a bit but wanted to know if anybody had tried it yet...
I've managed to build a 2003 ROM. It's extremely tricky though. I'm working on customizing a ROM similar to the XDA Developers SER - as soon as I get some free time
I'd like to acknowledge all the help given to me by Developer Itsme in this endeavor.
Let me know any suggestions you may have for the new ROM.
sheran_g,
i didn't know u could use mkrom with 2003 rom image. can u please post how u did it? i created a special version based on SE 1.1 rom but would like to put the same programs into the new rom. any help is appreciated.
thanks

What's tricky about it...?
The modified registry file you make does not get picked up at the device startup. You need to manually inject the memory address of the modified registry file into the ROM in order for it to get picked up.
my latest romtools can be found at romtools
now it calls dumprom to find and fix the filedata offsets.
I think they should now build 2003 roms.
sheran_g,
can u post the steps that u take to buid it? i'm trying right now and its not working. i'm having little problems. can u post ur default.reg and initobj.txt? any other help is apreciated.
thanks
alex
Ok. Here they are in a nutshell:
Get the latest romtools.
Make the following dirs: romfiles, cfg, tmp, out, files, files1, files2
Split the ROM into Bootloader, bootimage, OS image, xipchain into the 'cfg' dir.
Dump the files in the OS image into a 'romfiles' dir.
Get the default registry file, initobj & initdb files into your 'cfg' dir.
Make changes to your default.reg and initobj.txt
Place any files you want loaded in the ROM into the 'files' dir.
Run 'mkrom.sh'
You should then have your new ROM. I'm sorry if it's extremely brief; you'll have to make do with this and the README file in the romtools archive file for now. You'll find my default.reg and initobj.txt files on my site: www.zensay.com/qtek/mkrom
sheran_g,
Have you created a decent working custom WM2003 ROM?
If so what Apps have you added?
How much ROM space does it use?
I've not added any apps to my ROM. I have only added a carrier logo file and made some changes to the registry. So I cannot comment on ROM space yet. The ROM works fine.
sheran_g,
what command did u use to extract rom files? did u do it under windows or unix?
I'm having problems trying to dump the rom image. I don't know if its too much to ask, but can u zip ur directory and post it somewhere so i can download it? or if u can post commands that u ran to dump the 2003 rom?
thanks

Hi,
could you include "O2 home zune" to the 2003 image, like in the 2002 3.19 GER. Its for Germany interested only!
AR :?:
home zone depends on specific 3.19 rilgsm features. which are not in 4.*
okay, used dumprom -4 -d files -q nk.nbf and extracted all files. Got could not find pointer for ofs 00000000 ERROR but all the files seem to be there. Trying to figure this out. Saw the above abreviated directions but am fumbling around. Anyone have concise directions?
Val
Anyone? Just give me a good hint then please.
Hi all!
When i overwrite the rilgsm.dll file in the t-mobile 4.0.10 image with the rilgsm.dll from the O2 GER 3.19 image, i could use the "O2 home zone" option with the hz.exe in Starup directory? rilgsm.dll from german image hes 'at+creg=2' string in it. probably the RIL_GetCellTowerInfo call is now implemented. When it can work, how could i write the german rilgsm.dll to the image? I haven't linux, could somebody cook the image for me?
here is the germen rilgsm.dll and the hz.exe for the "home zone" funktion! http://www.nokiaprog.de/XDA/home_zone.zip
THX
PS: Sorry, my english! ;-)
AR
the homezone enabled rilgsm.dll depends on other dll's and exe's.
probably ril.dll, stk.exe, cell*.dll and maybe more, I have not tried
replacing all.
you don't need to build a new rom in order to experiment with this, you
can just copy the desired files to \windows, to override the rom versions.
And I don't think it works with the RIL_GetCellTowerInfo call,
but adds some notification events.
to change the CREG setting you need to call RIL_DevSpecific with parameter 25 ( to turn it on ) or 26 ( to turn it off )
even though that does not seem to be how hz.exe does it.
Hi,
I opened the image file in the Hex editor and renamed the file there rilgsm.dll. Then I flashed the image, which was phone probably deactivated, because rilgsm.dll was missing. Then I copied over ActiveSync the German rilgsm.dll into the Windows directory, XDA reset and he not accept the file. I assume because the file was not in the EPROM memory! Therefore I wanted to have rilgsm.dll first times in the image!

Hi...
In the Magician,extended ROM customization is not as easy as other devices.
For himalaya devices,u can use ER2003edit to open ms_.nbf files,edit them by replacing the cabs,or u can unlock and unhide ur extended ROM using extrom unlocker,then u wille able to see extended ROM as a removable drive,and u can edit cabs within...(note that cabs are *.cab files,or cabinet files,those files are executable on ur PPC,almost every program or software is a cab file,even if it doesn't look like,cab file must be contained in,exept executable applications on PPC like .exe that runs directly by clicking on)
In BlueAngel,ER2003edit don't open it's ms_.nbf,but still u have an extrom unlocker for BAs....so u can also edit ext ROMs...
Now in Magician,and due to the difference in hardware architecture(Magician have one rom slot of 64mb),this device don't have (yet) an ext ROM unlocker,and ER2003edit do not open it's ms_.nbf files....(and the member (Anansky) who did the big storage and we all believe he can make or help in making extrom unlocker,seem to have vanished... :? ...)still,there's advanced methods to customize ur ext ROM,but take into consideration that they r not easy....
1-by dumping the ROM to storage card,then using ntrw and a hex editor to cut a partition of the decoded ROM(the ext ROM),mounting it as virtual drive using total commader plugin,editing it,and reflashing using SD method....ouff...read more about this method from here...
2-by freeing ur ext ROM memory using big storage,then making a folder called 2577 on ur storage card,put in autorun.exe and a .zip file containing ur cabs,so,once u do a hard reset,the cabs will be installed automatically from ur SD card....read about big storage from here and here...learn about 2577 folder from buzz's site... http://www.buzzdev.net/
note that this method does not make u an extended ROM like ms_.nbf,but will do the job as it will install ur favorite cabs directly after hard reset....
Good luck...
RAGO :lol:
Just to share with everyone after few days trying, I have succesfully upgrade my dopod 828, the main problem is facing the Error 150, the Upgrade utility is not designed for this device
The procedure is more or less the same as pervious post in this forum, but just little bit different
1. Right click on the EXE-file and extract to a named folder (using Winzip or something similiar)
2. You should end up with about 6 - 8 individual files; ms.nb1, radio.nb1, nk.nb1 ruu.conf, ruu.dll, enterbl, getdevicedata and maupgradeut, the maupgradeut is the file that runs the upgrade
3. Download the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
4. Once you have this file you will need to add this to the folder created above as this is the file needed to initiate the upgrade.
----- until step is exactly the same
Skip this step-> In ActiveSync, click on file and connection settings and untick the USB connection.
5. In ActiveSync, go to option -> Schedule, Set it to Manual, this is to make the PPC USB connection to ActiveSync active but don't do any Sync with your PC and PPC during the upgrade process.
6. Connect the phone to the USB, manually sync once. From now onwards, the step is the same.
-----
7. Now run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
8. The upgrade Wizard will start, go through a few checks then eventually come up with the country Id error.
9. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe file again and this time it should allow you to run the Wizard.
10. The process should then go through 3 stages which should last about 10 - 15 minutes.
11. When finished you should get the upgrade successful notification and a prompt to reset the device
12. In ActiveSync, click on file and connection settings and tick the USB connection.
13. Enjoy your new ROM
I am trying to upgrade my Dopod 828, and I get a error no. 150 said the ROM is not designed for this device... oh.....

Download wizard service tool (do a search, it's on here somewhere) and it has an option to download your extended ROM to your computer and then you can do what you want with the 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

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

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

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?

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 ?
greetings from germany
editing rom

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
