hello! I'm wanted to know how do you extract the Extrom from ppc? meaning the each file such as CallerID, PhonePad, etc.. thank u in advance.
That are the wrong Folders!
Over here the right Paths
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/extended rom 1.12.119 wwe
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Magician/extracted qtek 1.12.00
Sorry , folders fixed!
There are plenty threads explaining this, but here you go:
Extraction of extrom:
-Install required rom
-On first start up setup ppc untill " please tap screen" to finalize
-Within the 3 second count down soft reset your system
-you will see exposed extrom via explorer
-from within active sync/explore navigate to folder and copy to pc
-voila, each cab can be started manually from within ppc[/quote]
how can it be done?
is there a wiki page about it?
fyi: i need cab files from extended roms
use ER2003Edit,find it in ftp ... :wink:
here u go ftp://[email protected]/Tools/
i thought that was not possibe for anything else then the XDAII? I need it for all devices, basically
What this tool can't do:
* Edit other ROM images than those for the xda2

i've heard xda2jojo talking about newer version that doesn't require password....i'll dig in the forum...brb :wink:
"Download the latest version of windows mobile 2003 rom editor that bypass the password... "this is what xda2jojo said in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=26094&highlight=
theoretically,by bypassing the password u can open any ext ROM....theoretically....ok....i didn't try it :wink:
I can open up extended rom files for the Himalaya no problem, but this too wont allow me to open extended rom files from ROMs other then the one meant for the Himalaya...so I cant open extended rom files for Magician/ Universal/ Wizard/Blue Angel...thats what I mean
thx for the effort though
sorry i couldn't help .....but i've got this idea concerning blueangel.....try unlocking the ext ROM and extract the files :wink: ....though,u still need a blueangel device,and i don't know if other device have ext ROM unlocker..
no worries
Hi everyone:
I just bought my Dopod 828, however it language is Traditional Chinese, and I want to change the ROM to englisg.
So where I can find the english rom for this pda and what is the procedure and precaution I need to take during the upgrading.

Unlock=not ROMs but tools to unlock ur device if it's locked from communication networks like t-mobile,etc....
so,as a conclusion,use shipped ROM folder... :wink:

Very detailed explaination!
Thank you very much.
I will try to upgrade my device in this week end, good luck to me
Just curious about how other customer the extended rom etc.....
And I saw many CAB file to install... is this those modification that other have make to improve the device?

Hi...
In the Magician,extended ROM customization is not as easy as other devices.
For himalaya devices,u can use ER2003edit to open ms_.nbf files,edit them by replacing the cabs,or u can unlock and unhide ur extended ROM using extrom unlocker,then u wille able to see extended ROM as a removable drive,and u can edit cabs within...(note that cabs are *.cab files,or cabinet files,those files are executable on ur PPC,almost every program or software is a cab file,even if it doesn't look like,cab file must be contained in,exept executable applications on PPC like .exe that runs directly by clicking on)
In BlueAngel,ER2003edit don't open it's ms_.nbf,but still u have an extrom unlocker for BAs....so u can also edit ext ROMs...
Now in Magician,and due to the difference in hardware architecture(Magician have one rom slot of 64mb),this device don't have (yet) an ext ROM unlocker,and ER2003edit do not open it's ms_.nbf files....(and the member (Anansky) who did the big storage and we all believe he can make or help in making extrom unlocker,seem to have vanished... :? ...)still,there's advanced methods to customize ur ext ROM,but take into consideration that they r not easy....
1-by dumping the ROM to storage card,then using ntrw and a hex editor to cut a partition of the decoded ROM(the ext ROM),mounting it as virtual drive using total commader plugin,editing it,and reflashing using SD method....ouff...read more about this method from here...
2-by freeing ur ext ROM memory using big storage,then making a folder called 2577 on ur storage card,put in autorun.exe and a .zip file containing ur cabs,so,once u do a hard reset,the cabs will be installed automatically from ur SD card....read about big storage from here and here...learn about 2577 folder from buzz's site... http://www.buzzdev.net/
note that this method does not make u an extended ROM like ms_.nbf,but will do the job as it will install ur favorite cabs directly after hard reset....
Good luck...
RAGO :lol:
Just to share with everyone after few days trying, I have succesfully upgrade my dopod 828, the main problem is facing the Error 150, the Upgrade utility is not designed for this device
The procedure is more or less the same as pervious post in this forum, but just little bit different
1. Right click on the EXE-file and extract to a named folder (using Winzip or something similiar)
2. You should end up with about 6 - 8 individual files; ms.nb1, radio.nb1, nk.nb1 ruu.conf, ruu.dll, enterbl, getdevicedata and maupgradeut, the maupgradeut is the file that runs the upgrade
3. Download the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
4. Once you have this file you will need to add this to the folder created above as this is the file needed to initiate the upgrade.
----- until step is exactly the same
Skip this step-> In ActiveSync, click on file and connection settings and untick the USB connection.
5. In ActiveSync, go to option -> Schedule, Set it to Manual, this is to make the PPC USB connection to ActiveSync active but don't do any Sync with your PC and PPC during the upgrade process.
6. Connect the phone to the USB, manually sync once. From now onwards, the step is the same.
-----
7. Now run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
8. The upgrade Wizard will start, go through a few checks then eventually come up with the country Id error.
9. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe file again and this time it should allow you to run the Wizard.
10. The process should then go through 3 stages which should last about 10 - 15 minutes.
11. When finished you should get the upgrade successful notification and a prompt to reset the device
12. In ActiveSync, click on file and connection settings and tick the USB connection.
13. Enjoy your new ROM
I am trying to upgrade my Dopod 828, and I get a error no. 150 said the ROM is not designed for this device... oh.....

Hello,
I have read that some people have been having a bit of trouble with customising their extended rom on the Universal. So here is my attempt at creating a guide, as a way of saying THANKS to all who helped me in these forums to create my own customised ROM's on the blue angel and my current EXEC.
First thanks mainly to Buzz for the Ext Rom Unlocker and also to BeyondTheTech for the Disable Security Cab.
Also thanks to all other members who contributed their trials and files in the thread.
IMPORTANT - DO A BACKUP BEFORE DOING THIS AS A HARD RESET IS REQUIRED!!!!
Here Goes:
This is how i did it:
1. I created a folder on the desktop called Exec, and inside i created 2 folders called Orig Rom and Cooked Rom
2. I then downloaded the following 3 files and placed them into the Exec folder.
3. i copied the unlock policies and the ext rom unlocker onto sd card and copied them to the phone.
4. i ran the unlock policies cab first then the ext rom unlocker cab
5. under programs i clicked on ext rom unlocker to execute the file
6. it then said succesful and reboot to finsh
7. once rebooted install total commander from below.
8. i then ran total commander and typed in /extended_rom (note underscore) and it displayed the contents of the exteneded rom that originally came with the phone.
9. selected it all and copied the contents to SD card.
10. if you connect your phone directly to pc then you can copy the contents directly to the 'orig rom' folder you created earlier, or use card reader to do same.
11. either way you have the contents of the ext rom on the pc. i then deleted the contents of the Extended_Rom on the phone.
12. the next steps are done on the pc.
13. copy the autorun.exe and the config.txt file from the 'orig rom' folder to the 'cooked rom' folder.
14. copy all the CAB files that you want to be installed upon hard reset into the cooked rom folder aswell.
15. copy the disable security.cab file into the 'cooked rom' folder aswell
16. you will need to rename the cab files that you want installing in the following format:
Default_Unsigned_xxxxxx.cab where xxxxxx is the name of the file
17. if the cab files have long names then just rename them!
18. if you wanted to keep some of the original cabs from your extended rom then copy these into the 'cooked' folder aswell but leave their naming system alone ie:
Signed_UNI_Remove_BatteryIcon.sa.CAB
19. once these have been named as above open the config.txt file
20. it needs to be prepared into the following format :
LOCK:Enabled
CAB: \Extended_ROM\Default_Signed_DisableSecurity.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\Default_Unsigned_tcpmp.arm_ce3.cab
CAB: \Extended_ROM\Signed_SSD_BTUR_Patch_For_BT_Cannot_Initial.sa.CAB
CAB: \Extended_ROM\Default_Unsigned_Porta-Pinball.CAB
RST: RESET
this is an extract from my config.txt file
21. i used the existing file and amended the entries, add/deleted some of the entries.
22. note the space between Cab: \ this is important.
23. also note that the first file that i wanted to install was the disablesecurity.cab file, without this the other 'personal' cabs will not install.
24. so once you have edited and saved your config.txt files making sure all spelling is correct (also an important thing otherwise the files dont install) and no warnings are issued either! you will have in your 'cooked rom' folder:
autorun.exe
config.txt
and several cab files
25. select all the files and then 'right click' on properties.
26. select the 'read-only' option and ok
27. i found that after the first install some of the cab files delete themselves! this prevents that from happening.
28. connect your phone to the pc
29. using active-sync Explore device and navigate to the Extended_Rom folder
30. copy all the contents of your 'cooked rom' folder into the Extended_Rom folder
31. once completed, disconnect the phone and perform a hard reset.
32. after you have aligned screen and done the start-up routine it will start installing your personallised cab files.!!
33. You should now have an Exec, customised with your own extended rom and as a bonus a complete back-up on your pc.
34. if ever you upgrade the phone rom/radio etc, all the software you need and the perosnlaised rom is ready to go.
if i have missed a step plz post back and i will edit my posts and put in there.
I cannot stress how important it is that you make a backup first before doing this as you will lose everything on the phone.
Bye for now!!!
Gr8 Work!!!
hi there this is a perfect guide well done m8
only one question as i have the jasjar and i-mate rom on it
i do not have the config.txt file
how do i tell the device to install my personal/third party cab files
thanx in advance
mail attachments
Thanks for the guide, however when i use total commander, extended rom is shown with the same symbol as storage card and I cannot get the mail programme to save attachments to the real storage card as the universal thinks the extended rom is the storage card.
How can the properties of the extended rom be changed so it does not appear to be a storage card ?
Thanks
Steve

I just renamed the required cab file by adding "Default_" to it. That did it.
Thanks
But I have been through the thread numerous time.
The mail programme thinks the extended rom is the storage card.
The thread has a fix to hide the extended rom so the mail programme now saves attachements onto the real storage card.
It just seems a shame to have gone to all the trouble to unlock and make visisble the extended rom, just to hide it again so the mail programme can save onto the real storage card.
Am I missing something. Simple guidance PLEASE.

When the hard reset is done the whole point is for the Extended Rom to be hidden again. This ensures that at any point in the future if a hard-reset is required then the phone is setup agian as you want it.
At the moment the Extended_rom partitrion cannot be used as a storage space , and i believe Buzz is working on that.
So my guide illustrates deleting existing rom, and replacing with personalised rom and then hiding it agian.
Above this thread is a link to Buzz's small tutorial to alllow attachemnts to be saved back to storage card instead of the Extended Rom for those who want to leave it Un-Hid.
Regarding those without a config.txt file then renaming everything to Default_xxxxx.cab does the trick.
thanks
This is a GREAT thread. Hats off to you.
Personally, I think I'm going to add the T-Mobile USA Internet Settings cab to "cooked" stuff (I'm in the US).
Does anyone have a cab that will set up the gmail pop settings (w/ generic un/pass of course)? Lazy, yes, but I'm just trying to make any refresh that I would ever need to do that much simpler
i have another question as we have a lot of good registry tweaks....
is it really that hard to create cab files for those registry settings and just throw those in the extRom

my problem is that in wm5.0 there is no config.txt file to tell the os what to install from the ext rom, i unlocked the ext rom and moved all contents to pc, i also deleted all the existing files from it, and i have all my cabs ready, but the problem is how to tell the installer to take these cabs instead of the origionals?
does it take it automatically, or should i do something to make it install my personalised ext rom?

If you dont have a config.txt file then you need to rename your cab files in the following format:
Default_xxxxxx.cab where xxxxx is the name of your file. this has been found to work in your phone.
thanks
many thanx to u.
this worked just fine.
cheers

It's shuld be Default_xxxxxx.cab or Default_Unsigned_xxxxxx.cab / Default_Signed_xxxxxx.cab, now ?
I have a question regarding the Extended ROM. I've read that this is the part that is executed whenever the device is hard reset and goes through the "Customization" phase (after the 3-second message).
Whenever we use the "nbhextract.exe" command on a shipped ROM, it produces an "ExtROM.nb" file which is separate from the OS.nb file. So that means our OS backups should not contain the ExtROM... However whenever I restore my ROM backup of my device, it does do the Customization, which means that the ExtROM actually is there, right??
Another confusing thing is that I remember a few times in the Device Info screen the ExtROM version would show up after a couple of resets (after restoring my OS backup). I cannot get it showing now, however.
There is a registry setting that can also show the Extended_ROM directory but it's not working for me either:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315588
So my question is, is it really true that the Customization IS the Extended ROM and also, why is it being executed when I didn't even back that up?? If anyone can clear this up for me, that would be great
Custumisation can also be run without having an Ext rom.
The Autorun looks a t a registry setting that points to it's configuration file.
This Conifguration "config.txt" file in stock roms points most commands to the files on the \Ext_rom partition\
In most cases the config.txt file is only in the ext rom so autorun might run but not find the config file then quit.
Un custom roms the registry is changed and all files that then run in custimasation are simply in the Windows folder or it can be disabled.
It might be that some stock roms have a mix of files that need to be executed from ext_rom and some from Windows. But that should result in an error for the files it cannot execute from the ext_rom.
Ok, I just found an old backup of my documents and programs that I made with Spb Backup. It was made before I did any installs of ROMs to my device back in March. My ExtRom version now shows up in the Device Info (which probably answers the question of why I saw it show up after reboot!) Thank god I have an original Spb backup of the device!
The registry setting to show the ExtRom directory doesn't work, however. I'm still working on it.. (EDIT: I probably can't see it now because only the original intact ROM would contain the ExtROM.. I am just using the OS backup now)
Thanks Noonski, your answer probably answered the question as to why my OS backup hangs after doing the Customization. It's likely installing from the Windows directory but then looks for the ExtROM directory and can't find it, so it hangs. I'm going to see if I can back up my ExtROM files and then somehow make it into a ROM.
Edit: If anyone has a Rogers Elfin that has been unmodified, could you please PM me and let me know if that registry trick works. I'd like to have a copy of the Extended ROM directory and make it into a ROM backup.

This can be easily modified using Hypercore to dump the rom.
The look at the Rom/XIP folder and adjust the boot.rgu and the .rgu in OEM operators.
Or just change the config.txt in oemoparators.
Then recook the files into NBH file.
Since you are allready taking it apart it already is missing the original HTC signature after using HTCRT.

Aha! Thanks for the tip... this is what the config.txt says under /Windows:
LOCK:Enabled
EXEC:\WINDOWS\cusTSK.exe \WINDOWS\Rogers_White.tsk
XML: \WINDOWS\Menu_Operation.xml
CAB: \WINDOWS\pIE_Default_Page_Rogers.CAB
CAB: \WINDOWS\PT_PIE_DEFAULT_0409.CAB
CAB: \WINDOWS\DoMore.CAB
CFG: \Extended_ROM\Config.txt
Just taking out that line will probaby do the trick... However I want to get the entire ROM replicated, so it'll require me to get the Extended_ROM out.
I also found a cool tool by AnDim that can construct an ExtROM.nb from the Extended_ROM directory files:

Simply using Total Commander without any registry tweak.
Type in \EXTENDED_ROM
To get into the folder (original rom flash.)
And copy over the files and put these into any SYStem folder.
You would get the rom replicated without losing the space to EXT_rom partition.
EXT_Rom is So 90's
At least on the ELF
Ok, there was someone on the forums here (Boodah) who happened to have an unmodified Rogers Elfin with an intact ExtROM. So, using TFAT Image Editor I was able to make a working OS + ExtROM Now it functions like its original version
Thanks for the Total Commander tip.. with that app I was able to verify the ExtROM was flashed on my Elfin.

Ah your not cooking it completly.
That would gain you at least 10MB

Yeah the ExtROM has to be 10,240MB or else it will not flash properly. But I want it to be like the original.
Anyways, nobody uses the original software anyway ;-) But the backup is there for people who need it for warranty or selling purposes.

Aye, hear that, all contribution, great work.
I thought this was just about making a stripped version.
Missunderstandings happen

That's a good idea though - stripping down their ROM.
But I'll stick with the cooked ROMs Too much bloat in stock ROMs.
