Extract files from WM6.1 Emulator images - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi
I couldn't find answer at the forum in existing posts so I'm asking about it here.
I need to extract files from WM6.1 Emulator image file, e.g. PPC_USA.bin.
I can extract file system from .nbh files (e.g. XPERIA ROM), but when I try to do same steps for PPC_USA.bin, tool says, that there's no boot sector. I can't figure out what is .bin: is it .nbh, .nb or .bin which we usually get when it's extracted from .nb?
Thank you.
Greg

Copy the bin file into the root of this directory, and run prepit

Thank you so much.

next time, ask your questions in the Questions & Answers section.
thanks.
(and again, DONT answer questions here!)

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.

To view & extract .nb0 content, please help......

hi all, i have a .nb0 file which extracted from a wm5 ppc phone ( cant remember the model), and i need some help here to view this nb0 and extract some cab file from there.
This .nb0 consist a lot useful softwares, for example, soundcover (background sound during conversation), answering machine, conversation recorder and it works flawlessly on wm5 ppc phone.
Any expert??? please help.
**ok, I found the phone model, its GIGA, this is the nb0 file, latest update from thier website http://www.higiga.com/HigigaFrontStage/event/download/update/V1.12.80.zip
Hi,
Congratulations on extracting an .nb0 file. There are many methods to do so, depending on the device. Out of curiosity, which method did you use? Assuming that you correctly extracted the .nbo file of the CE image, you can treat it the same as an .nb or .bin file. use "viewimgfs *.nb0". the * of course meaning the name of your nb0 file like MSFLSH50_2.nb0, or what ever. This will give you all the files and what not. You can then use the DSMtool by bepe. This will organize all the files into packages. Then you can use cabwiz or some other program to create a cab installer. Good posts to follow are mamiach, bepe, buzzlightyear, and others, if you didn't already know. The dsmtool is found in bepe's WM5 kitchen. the viewimgfs and other imgfs tools were created by mamiach.
Regards,
Jason
thanks for your reply, i will try to use the tools to see whether i can extract anything out of it...thanks again.
I think i have successfully dump the rom to a dump folder, but i cannot see anything but only some dll files, what else i need to do??? do i need to use some tools to convert all these dll files to view the rom content?? please advise, thanks.

How to copy a file in ROM out to new folder

I'm trying to copy a file that's in use in the ROM out somewhere. Is there any way to do this?
alternatively, is there a way to read/explore .bin files (rom)? either option is fine with me.
You need to dump and unpack the ROM. Precisely how to do this depends on the specific model of your device.
Please read the WiKi for more info.

General Process of Rom Development for WM-Phones? TG01 need a new custom Rom!

Hello developers,
maybe some people know, that there is a new TG01 section in this forum.
I personally own this phone and like it very much. Only the Rom that Toshiba provided us isn't very good and stable. It has many problems, that need to be solved
The friendly guys of WMPowseruser told us, that they want to try to cook a Rom for the Toshiba TG01.
But until now nothing happens, because nobody knows 100% sure what is needed to be done, to get a working Rom for the TG01 cooked...
So I decided to gain more information about the Rom Development process for WM-Phones.
I want to ask you what is needed to get a working cooked Rom for our Phone.
Do we need a Hard-SPL? Or do we need to extract the Rom out of our TG01, decrypt it so that we then can cook a new Rom?
You may notice, that I'm not an expert on this topic, so I rely on your help.
There is already a tool made by the member Cotulla to encode/decode TSW-files. http://cotulla.pp.ru/Misc.html
And it is also possible to flash every Rom that Toshiba provided us with this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5405267&postcount=325
So it's possible to flash for example a german O2 Rom on an english TG01 that has the Orange UK Rom originally on it.
But I don't know if that helps us for our development.
We already gained 250$ for the development and I think that we're also able to gain even more money if it's needed!
We need serious help
I thank you in advance for your answers to this thread!
Every answer is welcome.
I also wish you a nice remaining Sunday!
Best regards,
Manuel
agree
TG01 have come to market for almost 1 year, hopping the cooked rom can be made early!
TG01
TGO1 MAIN bin file needs decrypted then it's full speed ahead
we need an experienced hacker
TG01
can the mods sticky this post we need it's full attention!!
Ok here is the acutal development status:
Progress of the Project WM6.5.3:
- With SDDL+ made by stepw we can flash any Rom on the TG01
- With Cotullas Tool we can decode/encode .tsw files
(The .tsw file is the file, that Toshiba offers to download from their homepage to update to WM6.5.3...so these .tsw files need to contain the whole OS and all system files that are needed to run the TG01)
Cotullas Tool can make a .bin file out of the .tsw file that we got from Toshiba.
But there are two problems with that:
1. We cannot be sure, that the Decoder works 100% right.
2. The .bin file we get when we use Cotullas tool seems to be not normal. We cannot extract it.
If I open it with Isobuster than I first see only the one track is included in the .bin file.
But then I let Isobuster search for more files after their signatures in the .bin file, Isobuster finds the following files:
00003808 , \Recovered File 01.mov
00112925 , \Recovered File 02.gz
00115498 , \Recovered File 03.png
00115530 , \Recovered File 04.png
00115533 , \Recovered File 05.png
00115563 , \Recovered File 06.png
00115791 , \Recovered File 07.cab
00115962 , \Recovered File 08.gz
00116325 , \Recovered File 09.png
00116351 , \Recovered File 10.cab
00116354 , \Recovered File 11.cab
00116385 , \Recovered File 12.cab
00116391 , \Recovered File 13.cab
00116417 , \Recovered File 14.png
00116420 , \Recovered File 15.png
00116421 , \Recovered File 16.gif
But for example the .cab files can't be extracted...it tells my, that the archive is damaged.
Well and we cannot be sure, that the above written files are the only content of the .bin file. Maybe Isobuster didn't find the others that are included in it...
So what we need:
- A person that understands the format of the .bin file (unencrypted .tsw file) so that we can extract the .bin file properly and get all of the system files and the OS out of it.
After that we can modify the files and create a new .bin file with the modified files included. Than we only need to encode it again, so that we have an flashable .tsw file again.
We could flash the new .tsw file with the SDDL+ made by the user stepw.
It would be very nice if someone would answer me and get in contact with me, that can help us to get a working WM6.5.3 Rom onto the TG01.
Thanks in advance!
I wish all of you a nice remaining Sunday evening!
Best regards,

i used "itsutilsbin"-tools. after dumping i get an extractet oem/sys-folder with known (typical) foldercontent and -structure.
here is a list of extractet raw-files

The problem is in the nb0 file generated after using the cotulla tool.There are some extra bytes with checksum..i think only cotulla can make it possible.I tried manually with hexeditor..it fails..in short, we need another tool/program which can remove extea bytes, give us the normal nb0 file, which can be dumed recompiled and repacked with those removed extra bytes with the sme or modified checksum.Then we can have the custom ROM.
