How to extract files from ATOM ROM? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

As we know, to upgrade ATOM ROM we have to lauch an exe file downloaded from seeo2.com. But we cannot extract any file from this exe file except Boot.nb0 and this file is useless. Does anyone know how to extract other files from it. As I know, there are at least following files inside this exe file:
eboot.nb0
dm.nb0
flash.img
agent.mot
mot.mot
CPLD.img
assetinf.img
extended.img
MDOC.img
Its strange that there is no .nbf file at all. Is there any method to dump the ROM from a working ATOM? Can the Grabit utility grap ATOM ROM to SD? Will it be usable ?

I have dumped it already and uploaded here, but i do not remember are the files you search there.

When you double click the exe file, it will extract files to Windows\Temp foler, files are all hidden.

I'm not sure if this is correct, but I was provided with
Xda-Atom-ENG-20060123_Feb2006_.exe
Double click. This will extract to your root drive
c:\
Device Software Update Utility.exe
diskimage_Ver.nb0
Extendedrom.img
nova_pda_033105.mot
vl1d_pda_Ver.mot
Extendedrom.img can be opened with winimage.
diskimage_Ver.nb0 - can't remember how I dealt with it, but in the "usual" ways I guess! Mamaich's romtools I suppose. Thanks Mamaich!
If anyone can, I could still really do with a live rom dump, using this app:

I'm not sure if it works on the Atom, but I'd be grateful if someone could try it and let me know. A couple of nice guys have tried and failed

Vijay dear friend..
like i told you before...
the DUMP didn't work..
but you have the lastest rom.
any way, in a week or so, a new rom is about to come out, may the new rom could be dumped...?!?
Nadavi..

Exactly assasins, and I'm really grateful for the info.
I've dumped the rom file above, but a dump from the rom isn't the most useful ways to get files out of it. Some files aren't usable from there, so a live dump is best. But not to worry, I'll live without for now.
Oh, but I could still do with an atom registry dump if someone can send me that... gracias!

dear vijay555
is this suppose to wirk with ETEN M600
it runs ok but I don't no ware it extract files
thanx

I think it extracts them to a folder on your sd card, called Dump.
If you've got an eten dump, I could do with one of those as well.
I didn't write this app - I can't even remember where it came from. If anyone wants to volunteer as the author, I'd like to know more about the app!

Will I think it's not working hear
noyhing in my SD or TMP folder
thanks for your help
Regards

Guys, what's the storage card called on the Atom?
Is it still called \storage card\?
V

Hi all,
To allow study of Wizard ROM, could any kind people dump the file of Wizard WWE using the TestWM5.exe attached in the post above (have to login to see the file) to dump the ROM to MiniSD Card?
The steps are actually quite simple:
1. Extract TestWM5.exe from TestWM5.rar and place it to you Wizard.
2. At the Wizard, use File Explorer to execute the TestWM5.exe
3. Click "button1" to start the dump process, the file will then be save to \Storage Card\Dump\
4. Copy the Dump folder out and then RAR or Zip it
5. Upload to ftp://xda-developers.com/Uploads/Wizard/ using account "xdaupload" with passwd "xda"
Thanks in advance! :wink:

Not easily. You'll have to make a new rom I think. Check out itsme's posts on the wiki.

To view & extract .nb0 content, please help......

hi all, i have a .nb0 file which extracted from a wm5 ppc phone ( cant remember the model), and i need some help here to view this nb0 and extract some cab file from there.
This .nb0 consist a lot useful softwares, for example, soundcover (background sound during conversation), answering machine, conversation recorder and it works flawlessly on wm5 ppc phone.
Any expert??? please help.
**ok, I found the phone model, its GIGA, this is the nb0 file, latest update from thier website http://www.higiga.com/HigigaFrontStage/event/download/update/V1.12.80.zip
Hi,
Congratulations on extracting an .nb0 file. There are many methods to do so, depending on the device. Out of curiosity, which method did you use? Assuming that you correctly extracted the .nbo file of the CE image, you can treat it the same as an .nb or .bin file. use "viewimgfs *.nb0". the * of course meaning the name of your nb0 file like MSFLSH50_2.nb0, or what ever. This will give you all the files and what not. You can then use the DSMtool by bepe. This will organize all the files into packages. Then you can use cabwiz or some other program to create a cab installer. Good posts to follow are mamiach, bepe, buzzlightyear, and others, if you didn't already know. The dsmtool is found in bepe's WM5 kitchen. the viewimgfs and other imgfs tools were created by mamiach.
Regards,
Jason
thanks for your reply, i will try to use the tools to see whether i can extract anything out of it...thanks again.
I think i have successfully dump the rom to a dump folder, but i cannot see anything but only some dll files, what else i need to do??? do i need to use some tools to convert all these dll files to view the rom content?? please advise, thanks.

HD2 cab install

hello guys, i dont own an hd2 yet but ill buy one this month but i have a question i want to add some cabs file on my device when i get. My question is i have download some cabs BUT when i open the winrar i dont get any cab file, all i get is some files that has bunch of numbers and one of them says "_setup.xml" so what should i do? should i directly put the winrar file on my hd2? since i dont get any cab file inside the winrar?? and if there's a cab file inside the winrar and i press the button "extract here" should i just upload the cab file only to my hd2 right??
Hope you guys can help me.
Thank you.
Hi.
A CAB file is a compressed installer file for mobile phones.
If you open it with winrar, you will see all the files it contains.
Just copy the original .cab file to your phone.
Click on the .cab file, and it will run the installer, and install the program on your phone.
You can choose to install to the main memory or the sd card.
Yeah - as above. What you're calling a "winrar" file is the cab file.
Extract a cab
Ok, I know this isn't the original question but...
is it possible to extract a .cab file - i mean to extract all the different files that make up the program , all the .exe .dll .ico etc etc. Wanting to do this to help me reverse-engineer a couple of omnia 2 cabs that don't work.

Tried that, all I get are 10 files. One of them is _setup.xml, the others are numbered files.
I've attached a screen capture of the files so you can see what they are.

Yes that's what you would expect as they are the cab install files.
If they don't mean anything are you sure you know what you're doing?
That's what I'm trying to find out. I assume that the WM program works in a similar way to windows program in that its a collection of files (exe, ico, dll, cfg so on so forth) that get installed in the appropriate places on the device. If so, how do you 'unpack' these files from the setup files
use a cab manager program. I don't so I can't recommend, but wincecab manager sound familiar. u can use them to create cabs of your tweaks, install files and such.
it seems that you have never used windows mobile (just copy the winrar file into the device and run it from the device)

I'm not trying to install a cab file (which the first post was about) I'm trying to decompile the omnia 2 video editor to get it to run on the HD2 but instead of starting a new thread, I asked on this one because it seemed (partially) relevant.
BTW, I've got the cab 'extracted' so thanks - no for the difficult part...
