Anyone have the newest Rom for the I-Mate Jamin in CAB format, as I use a mac and cannot use the exe file from i-mate - thanks!
Do you have a Mac-friendly version of something like WinZip or WinRAR? If so you should be able to extract the .cab from the .exe.

I do not think the CAB file can be extracted from the ROM .exe file using winzip or winrar. The ROM .exe file contains only nk.nbf file & other files required for installation. Only these files can be extracted.

Is there a way to extract special files from a Windows Mobile 5 cab-file?
I would like to extract at leats some of the files and also to extract the whole cab file.
I did try it with WinZip and Winrar on my PC, but I found no way to extract a file to a usable format.
Please give me some advise.

WinCE CAB Manager 1.1.0.4 (latest version) will not open Windows Mobile 5 or XML-based CAB files.
The low-tech method is to open them with WinRAR and look at the XML file which will contain the proper filename and the CABbed filename which you'll have to rename back to the proper filename after you extract.

Hi all
I have a problem with unpacking the ROM file.
I've downloaded the file NL_11300_131_11200.exe and in the tutorial it says right click and unpack. Now I allready have Winrar but all I can choose is Add and Compress options no Unpack option.
Am I missing something?
thanks in advance
If you don't succeed with WinRar, try WinZip or just execute the exe-file & search in your temp folders for the .nbf files. Don't close the program before you copied those files to a save place.

Yes i tried to search the file *.nbf and *.nb1 on my computer while the setup is still on but it can't find any files.
I have 2 hardisc and i've allso search on the other one but no results.
i haven't tried winzip yet i'll try it now
Right-mouse click on the exe file and then select extract here. Files will be automatically placed in the same place where the exe file is.
Does anyone know to extract the nbf file from the romupdate utitlity of the prophet?
or where can I find the nbf file for the prophet in this forum? I need to make a rom image on my sd card..or can i do it using just the nba file in the customized rom upgrade?
When you run the exe, it puts all it's files into a temp dir, probably your %temp% dir.
I'm sure there's an extractor of some kind if you can't find the file you want just by searching your harddisk for the file you're after, after you run the installation executable.
Get winrar (http://www.rarlabs.com) and once its installed right click onthe .exe file and select extract to (it will provide a foldername the same as the original file) winrar will extract the contents of the exe file to a flder for you.
yup! i 've done it, but don't know how to download the nk.nbf to my sdcard so that it can be flashed from there? anyone know?
Guys, I'm stupid.
When i download a .cab file it appears as a Rar archive - with 1 .xml file and loads of other files - how do I extract it to a .cab file to install on my pda?
Sorry.
fanger
i suspect that your winrar just associated cab files to itself
the fact that they apear with a winrar icon and open in winrar when you click on them
dont mean they are .rar
just get them to the pda and run them
Thanks.
Have just tried exactly that and - Hey presto -
Thankyou for not taking the mick as well

.rar files are archived files (compressed files)
you can unpack them with winrar, on the pc, or with winrar for ppc (for unpacking with the device itself)
the best way to unpack these .rar files is on your pc, and then copy the .cab file to your ppc, to start installing the game.
or use the instalation program included in the .rar file if it is an .exe file
a program will be installed to your pc, and the program will install and copy everything to your ppc.
if the game has no installation, only an .exe file and some data files, copy al the files to a new map on your ppc and click on the .exe (with an file explorer)
grtz.
download it on your phone, then connect your phone to a pc transfer the file to the pc and install it that way?

I've never felt so stupid. I've got Unrar on my computer and it seems to be unacking things, but it does it in a heartbeat and then I don't know where it's sending the unpacked files; i can't find them anywhere. where the heck do I look. The program doesn't seem to have a screen or any functions; it's doing something in the background AND making me feel like an idiot. Anyone got a "Well duh!" to help me blush?
right click the rar file and click extract here.
It will extract it to the same location you have the rar file.
