Installing ROM files?

I'm new to this ROM kitchen upgrading and have a few questions.
1) Jeff's Kitchen (http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/ROMkitchen/) creates an .exe to load ROM update to PPCPE, the latest ROM being 4.00.16. At yorch.net, the rom update is 4.00.21 and comes as a .rar file. It took awhile to find a utility to uncompress the .rar into it's .nbf file. Now, how do you install a .nbf file to one's PPCPE? Does a utility exist to install this .nbf to PPCPE?
2) Three ROM files seem to exist, 4.00.10, 4.00.16 & 4.00.21. Is there documentation to state the difference between each? Which is preferred for T-Mo in USA?
3) My understanding is that if you upgrade to, say, 4.00.16 and want to upgrade again, you cannot due to some programme A??? I don't understand. I'd like to be able to return to 3.14 if 4.00.xx doesn't work OR upgrade further when 4.00.55 comes around. Can someone explain this one.
4) Along with #2, which Radio Stack version is most recommended to go with which PDA ROM version? i.e. yorch.net site is a ROM update but not a radio stack update. Can you update ROM without updating RSU?

Raed throught the forum before post! you will get all answers when you go through the forum

Quick answers but u shud reali search the forum!!
1) look for XDArit and XDAtools on this site and follow instructions, u will need a SD/MMC card and reader/writer. As for the .rar extension, if u dont have winzip or winrar you reali shudnt b fooling around with the XDA ROM images!!
2) Marginal stability issues and Service Provider (T-Mobile) Updates.
3) again look for xdatools etc blah blah...
4)ur service providers website will tell give u the most up to date RSU. RSU is mainly considered as a separate issue.

Where to get a radio unit file in SD format ??

Hello
I have a serious problem with my XDA Qtek 1010 on the radio part.
In the bootloader i got " GSM ERROR" due to an error in flashing procedure.
I can back-up my ROM and bootloader and GSM part as well.
The problem is that I have found a lot of files to flash my ROM part bu nothing for the RADIO part.
Is there anyone so kind to help me and send a file ( or a link to download from ) from the radio part ( in SD format ) ?
Thanks,
Silviu C.

It would help if we knew what Radio stack you were running before the upgrade?

radio version before upgrade
I am not sure about initial radio version. It was an upgrade that is for sure.
please help me

Ok here you go, download the below file, use WinZip to extract the .cab from the .exe and copy it to your SD card.

Ok locate and copy the below files to your devices windows folder and run RSUpgrade.exe to restart the upgrade. (note this is an old method but it might still work).
RSUpgrade.exe
RSUpgrade.cp64
monitor_ul_bs.map
monitor_ul_bs.m0
also take a look at the below thread:

I want one

how do I load a radio with out the rest of the rom???

can anyone explain the procedure?? I did a search and couldnt find the instructions

Just go here (or pick any Radio version you want), download, unpack, install.
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/Radio/MagicianRadio 1.12.10.rar
Once you unpack it, you can just run the install program and you should be all set.
If you have the entire ROM set (OS, Ext_ROM, radio), you'll have 3 .nbf files in the folder. The radio.nbf is obvious. The other two can be renamed and they won't install if you don't want them to.

Where can I get RUUpdater

I'm so sorry about this. I really have spent over an hour searching and Googling and reading the Wiki but I just can't seem to find this simple thing.
My O2 XDA Orbit is dead so I thought I'd try one last attempt to rescue it by re-flashing the factory ROM (WM5). I found this thread via the wiki http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306904 and am following the instructions for bricked devices. I downloaded the O2 Orbit WWE Wm5 factory rom from rapidshare, I have my device in the bootloader and it shows "USB" in the bottom left and the PC reacted and recognised the device when I plugged it in (but doesn't see it in Activesync).
The step I'm stuck on is that Meschle's instructions say "flash factory rom. (run rom executable or RUU updater from pc)". The rom is an nbh file so I suppose I need the RUU updater for PC. Where do I get this from? I just can't find it.

dude if you downloaded the file the ROM you are talking about then you got ur self sorted - the package u have has the RUU or ROM Update Utility
when u go to bootloader, plug ur ppc to the pc and when u see the usb sign in the ppc screen just start the package u got from rapidshare it will do everything auto!!
let us know how you get on?
best luck with your 'surgery' it will be fine just dont worry

Maybe he downloaded simply a ROM file and not the complete package as usual. Download one of Meschle's or Tom's ROMs for example and delete the .nbh file inside the folder and replace it with yours.

true - Download any rom and delete the .nbh file inside the folder and replace it with yours. if u have ur rom on *.exe u can extract the ruu using winrar by right clicking and following the extraction!!

Direct download - a RUU
http://www.zshare.net/download/657626275df642/
this is a rom update utility - i got it from my files its only the ruu no rom is included so add ur *.nbh file to the extraction folder
BTW why dont u get artemis touch 3.01 rom its the best
