as far as i understood the merged rom has an older version in it, but I don't have it on my xdaii.
If it has installed itself on your himalaya, uninstall instructions are in the thread
thanks M4io
but neither winzip nor win rar recognized the file i downloaded on the thread you have posted.
wnen i click on the download it shows.
(download the 1.34 mb file, 'download PHP').
now what i want to know is what is PHP?
and why dosen't the winzip & win rar recognized's this cab file.
thanksin advance.

Install Caller_ID_W..
PHP is a language which runs on the webserver. so when you click on download.php you actually start a service on the server, which gives you the requested file.
now these CAB-files are pocketpc cab files ad are kind of setup programs for PocketPC , so you have to copy the CAB to your pocketpc and execute it there.
You can execute it by putting it in your extended rom, modify the config.txt and hard reset (I hope you know what hard reset means/implies)
or simply by tapping on it in PPC file explorer. In this case the CAB will disappear after installation. But if you have a previous version of Caller_id installed, you best uninstall it first : by editing the registry as explained in the forementioned thread, deleting as much files from the previous thread as it allows you to, soft reset, and delete the rest of the files.
I sure hope you understand all this, because if you don't know what php is, don't know what PPC CABs are, then I would advice you not to mess around too much with your PPC internals.

i know what is cab file.
but i wanted to know weather the file is in zip format cus win zip doesn't recognize it and even when i paste it on my ppc it doesn't install it simply says (there is no application associated with ''caller_id_wwe'' run the application first,then open the file from with in)
sounds like something corrupt during download
clear your internet cache and download again, don't unzip/unrar it, just copy the complete CAB file to your PPC
almost everything is installed with cab, so it would be weird that no association exists. Or during the copying to PPC maybe the conversion went wrong.
I'm really guessing now, just keep trying.

nbf file

Okay, I've spent 2 hours trying to obtain this information and am almost giving up.
Where do I obtain my nbf file? I want to change my splash screen but this is proving to be the most obscenely complicated thing I've ever done.
Could anyone post thier T-mobile 2.26 nbf file for me?
search in the Upgrading etc. forum for Wizard, "Cooked Custom Rom How to"
I found that thread and it alreeady assumes you know how to obtain and nbf file. One person gave a link on the ftp for a ROM dump utility and the ftp says that it doesn't allow anonomous logins. I included my user name and password but it wouldn't accept it. Why is this so complicated?
Could someone please tell me how to obtain this file? It's making me crazy. :evil:
Rename the RUU exe file to a rar file and open it, the nk.nbf file is there.Or just run the RUU (but don't click anything) and search your pc for nk.nbf and copy it to a safe location then cancel the Updater.
Thank you so much. In this forum, I read that I was supposed to change it to a zip, which didn't work, this did though.
I would suggest you move any questions regarding this to the Upgrading Forum. That's where you'll get more assistance.

Making a backup

hi all, i'm trying to make a ROM backup of my device following this metod:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_HowtoDumpRom
I've extracted the .raw files, created the imgfs_raw_data.bin and dumped the ROM, but when i try buildimgfs.exe command i get the classic win32 error and the application crashes..
any suggestions?
tnx
I am having the same exact problem... i really dislike those semi dos promt tools.. its alway a question of running and praying...
userfriendlyness is also something the people here could be looking into....though im grateful for their working apps
Ill be looking into the thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327073 for answers.. Ill keep you posted
Ok i checked the thread.
Seems a lot of people have the same error and not much is said about the error.
but this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2277527&postcount=95
Seems the BuildImgfs.exe command just repacks the files in a similar .bin file.
So its only to be used when coocking i guess
The value of repacking is when you change files.
Hope this clears it up for you!
I also downed Hypercore, which is totally unusable.
At least i do NOT understand the first tutorial!
It says to put a rom file in a certain dir and then start dumprom... but no matter which file i put in the HyperCore\Extract\Source dir it says it cant find the right file (Ive tried 04_os.nb, imgfs_raw_data.bin, Part02.raw, RUU_signed.nbh and RUU_Pharos_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.11.707.1_4.1.13.59_03.15.90_BLUE_Ship.exe nothing, nada, zip, zilch, the big "O", niente)
so there is a big thank you for writing a tutorial which doesnt tutor. hey im not an engineer... just a user pppfffff... ever hear of ... userfriendlyness? usability?

That's correct! You just need to skip the two steps that create the Dump folder and then use the buildimgfs command. It worked for me after I was having the same problem with buildimgfs (for my Elfin).
BTW.. Sorry to bump this old thread.. Just thought it would help others out.
Folowing instructions ???
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
All ok, but someone need to make the stiky, with svreenshots and exact steps like you type this comp will do that
for example I was confused with FLASHDR, at my PHAROS that was "DSK1:" WITH ":" ????? Interesting, isnt it ?
P.S.
For admins :
Sory for bad english and tel me or let me make picture detailed manual for dumping roms. I am not bad with computer and mobile phones but this manual confused me at first
And another P.S.
I dumped my P3470 - Pharos english rom but i can not login on ftp, if someone need rom, PM me.

Alternative to HyperCore?

Alternative to hypercore or another guide alternative to ivan's?
I much appreciate the effort he has put into his guide and it has helped a bit to get an idea of what goes where but the step by step process must be missing numerous steps...
Mainly I'm curious why when buildos is creating an os.nb file it gives me an error that the os.nb file is missing from hypercore\build\rom... I'm trying to create it from sys/oem why does it need it to exist already...?
Following the guides there were several spots where step a didn't lead to step b,
any suggestions to alternatives? Where'd you learn from before these guides were made?
Edit; Also... 64bit compatability? :/
Thanks for any help;
Edit2; Another issue I ran into is the guide advises to copy ifles to Working_Folder but that folder does not exist for me,
It does however in his easycook kitchen... Is that merely the folder structure preferred by ivan or was hypercore supposed to result in me having a working_folder?
For now I just pasted OEM and Sys into workingfolder from easykitchen to change package options but ... Kinda lost >_<
edit3; also it seems that my OEM folders just end up being tons of folders like "btooth.dll" or whatever...When extracting OEMAPPS folders are they supposed to bare any resemblance to the OEM folders found in the justMe easy kitchen? Cause they sure don't ...
Alternative??
I am not a pro cook but reading info/instructions seemed pretty simple and plain but application process is really confusing.
I have 32bit XP I followed the instuctions step by step, extraction didn't work for me but solved with first .nbh to .nb extraction tool than the .nb extraction command tool but the command doesn't start the builder. did it by duble clicking or going back to step 1(dump rom) and getting it done. final products are .nbh file created with dutty htc rom tool. flashing always failed corrupted file!! I use offical T-mobil rom and only removed the useless pictures, ringers, help files(never used), media player, transcriber, entertainment(games), netCF, adobe reader and page pool set to 4,6 and 8 all failed to flash (hardSPL for v 4.26)
Have unsuccesfull results with holly's kitchen default sys and oem folders. I don't get this may be i'm moving something i'm not supposed to
can somebody post "absolutely not to remove" or "OK to remove" list to compare mine??
appreciated any reply
god bless all cooks.

[Q] Converting .exe to .abi rom for O2 Zest

Dear everyone,
I am new to XDA and I got language barrier (English is not my 1st language). Thus I know my problem is already solved somewhere in the forum, but I cannot understand and also do not have that knowledge to follow the instruction.
I just purchased the 2nd hand XDA Zest. I tried to upgrade it to WM6.5, but actually, now I really want to downgrade it to WM6.1. However, the .exe file provided by O2 does not work due to the problem of language incompatibility.
So now I really need to convert the .exe rom into the .abi , so that I can flash it from the memory card.
Could anyone give me the instruction of how to do it?
Many thanks for your help.
Anyone know this, please help me
follow the simple
step 1: download resource hacker software
step 2: install it OK
step 3: open the software, now open the file which u want to
step 4: go to action tab in resource hacker software and click save in binary with .exe or .___(any extension) .
