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?

Hi ,
Just downloaded the ER2003 EDIT utility to modify the Extended ROM in my XDA2.
Previously I also downloaded some ROM files available from this web site. Like the RUU15283wwe_cdl.exe
What I am missing now is how to create my own Extended ROM.
The question is the ER2003 Edit asks for an NBF file.
What I have is only EXE file that when I install, automatically decompress and they try to install directly on the pocketPC.
Am I missing something?
Is it possible to have the Extended ROM .NBF file of the Imate version?
Thanks and regards,
Claudio.
Claudio,
Just extract the ROM image (the exe file) with Winzip to a new folder.
Then you can open the ms_.nbf file with er2003edit.
Grtz,
Jos
Thanks for your prompt reply.
I unzipped the file and it comes out an EXE file. When I double click on the EXE file it does not decompress into files, but it starts an InstallShield Wizard, and it begin an installation process.
Can I modify this?
Claudio,
Just unzip this file again with Winzip in a new folder.
You should get 6 files:
- HimaClearJumpCode.exe
- HimaGetDeviceData.exe
- HimaUpgradeUt.exe
- ms_.nbf
- NK.nbf
- Radio_.nbf
The extended ROM is contained in the ms_.nbf file.
When you change the ROM, you should also modify the config.txt file in the ROM.
The ROM upgrade of the XDA can be started with HimaUpgradeUt.exe.
Grtz,
Jos
Hi,
alternatively: When the Installshield setup starts, browser to your temp folder and you will find the extracted files in a sub-folder. Just copy the files to another folder and close the Installshield wizard (which will delete the original extracted files)

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.
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.

when you have winrar is shows cab files as archives
no it does not have anything say .cab i only see setup.xml that is it.when I click on that to install with my wing it open that folder all I see is words and symbols.
Lol, that's what is usually inside a cab. An xml and a few other files. Just run that "rar" on your device and you'll be fine and if you want, you can just rename the file to xxxxxx.cab instead of rar.
my device does not have Winrar to extract the files.I only can extract with my desktop.after extract it,it replace as a folder.I have tried rename that folder as xxxxx.cab and copy it to my storage card via Activesync.when I open that file to run,it does not install as like other file such as google map from google site.am I dumb or what
If the IFonz cab is compressed as a rar file, use winrar on your computer to open the rar file. You can download winrar for free - just google it. Once you have opened the rar file with winrar you will see what looks like another rar file inside. This is the cab. Do not open this. Simply drag and drop this to your desktop *or wherever you want on your computer* and then place that on your device. then use your device and navigate to where you placed the cab and simply click on it to install.
HotRod you are the genesis.I have been trying to figure it out for days.you make it so clear even a dummy like me can learn Thank Bro.

.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.
