Be sure you choose the right image file, OSImage Tools supports only image files for Wallaby Devices (O2 Xda, Siemens SX56...) it can read either nb1 or nbf format.

What is the difference between .nb1 and .nbf

after I cooked ROM from Jeff Summer's Kitchen, it has the option to choose whether you want it .nb1 or .nbf
.nb1 is for SD card flashing
while .nbf is for advanced users...
so what is exactly the difference between this 2 extensions??
Good Q - I was finkin that 2
Keen to always b learning more. Would appreciate a response to add 2 d knowledge for which without this site I would be stuffed wit an XDA still stuck on d update screen
an nbf file contains some information about what kind of device the os image
is intended for, and a bootloader and the os image.
a nb1 file contains only an os image.
nbf's can be flashed with Programme A.
see http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/wince-flashfile-formats.html
osimagetool understands both nb1 and nbf files.

Do you mean if I flash the phone with .nbf via osimagetool ( Programme A) , it could be over-write bootloader ?
yes, it could. but osimagetool will not take the bootloader from the nbf,
it always puts the 5.15 bootloader in the file that is flashed with "Programme A"
for a reason I don't yet understand, the bootloader is not always updated.
I am quite sure that "programme a" used to update bootloaders, but I have not seen it do this for some time. - maybe it has to do with the rom version?

Converting RS-x-xx.bin to RSUpgrade.cp64

OK. I have extracted the the RSU from a t-mobile xda using the xda manipulator expert mode.
Now if only we could figure out how to convert it to an RSUpgrade.cp64 format, then we should be able to use the RSUpgrade.exe utility to flash the GSM rom with the converted file.
Does anyone know how to do this??? :?
Wade
Hmm.. I have no idea but I am in need of GSM ROM. I tried the usual flash method of RSUpgrade utility without any luck and left my xda useless...
can you share your GSM ROM file?
PLease share your GSM ROM file was readed from yout XDA.
I will tell you if there is any conversion to be made and how to.
thaks,

new ROM upgrade with radio_.nbf file
codectelecom: have you cheked this file: http://xda-developers.com/incoming/rom160wwe/RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe
I tried to run the program but as usual got the POWER NOT PLUGGED IN error message due to our devices problems, but was wondering if you could study more as the programs consisted of 3 nbf files: ms.nbf, NK.nbf and radio_.nbf.
I extracted the files but was not able to write any of them to the SD card :? neither xda rit nor OSImage tools would accept the files. Is it because they are meant only for xda2?
HAPPY NEW YEAR, BTW

Yorch's ROM Kitchen is not working
The kitchen is MIA, but if you click on the "upgrades" link you can find an original ROM image for AT&T. This is supplied as a .RAR compressed file. Open the .RAR file using WinRAR and extract NK.nbf that is located in the /English folder. You can use XDATools to copy NK.nbf to an SD card and install from the bootloader.

OK I fix the ROM problem and SX56 is like new, but is lock. I can't unlock it with XDAunlock. XDAunlock says : " error getting unlock code "
:-(
Now since you have the NK file of your favorit ROM, goto the kitchen again and upgrade to ROM 3.17 which will unlock your device with the first startup ... then you can reflash your device using the NK file.

nk.nbf file is the OS (Rom) it requires a tool to flash it to a device which is RUU (RomUpdateUtility).A Rom is a complete compressed package,which includes OS(nk.nbf) and flashing tool RUU(RomUpdateUtility).Its the flashing tool RUU,which you execute to run the rom and flash it to the phone.
I presume you need to do alot of reading and understanding all these terminology and process of flashing
