yet again a tool that makes something as easy and comfortable as it can be...this time it's:
NBH packing and unpacking
had some fun rev'ing the NBH fileformat.. code is completly new and app is totally standalone, i.e. this does not depend on anything other executable or batchfile...
as you can guess i have written this to implement it into my kitchen...
you can unpack *any* NBH file no matter what device its been made for, and you can repack NBH files for artemis/athena/trinity and hermes..
enjoy!

i have tested it a couple of times and it worked, other people tested it too and it worked as it should.

as always, great job!

well done dutty.... another great tool..... are you using Studio 2003 or 2005?

Very nice and thank you. Is the source available?

Very nice.

this looks good i pray that it works with artemis, i have to try

great, it works~~~~~

Hi,
I can´t start the app in XP. it gives error Failed to start correct initiation (0xc0000135). I know this is not due to the app, but due to something missing at my XP. Any idea of what is it?

Nevermind... fixed.

Unfortunately doesnt work with Artemis' Roms. Dutty is there any possibility to make some patch? Please

tell me where to grab a artemis rom and the problem you have

Great work @Dutty.

i think the signature size you're using is always 64 bytes... that is ok for hermes & trinity, but for artemis and probably other devices it should be 1024.

Here is link to Artemis RUS ROM
http://rapidshare.com/files/17066642/ART_HTCRUS_11241101_026790_RUS_Ship.zip.html
which has nbh file in there ( looks like Dopod's Rom has nba file ???)
so I have tried to unpack nbh from RUS ROM and here is what i have:
Windows.nb
Radio.nb
SPL.nb
PrimarySplash.nb
G3IPL.nb
G4IPL.nb
ExtendedRom.nb
And now there is a couple of questions:
how to assamble nbh back if in tools there are no ACTIVE strings for SPL and IPL(if u choose Artemis)??? Extracted two IPL files but in tools only one string to input IPL.nb, how to bypass this issue??
And the last: how to edit nb files and in which nb is a software sitting???
Thanks if anyone can help.

Couldn't dump my chosen rom
I placed a rom in what I think is tools folder and pressed the button to dump it.
Came back with an error saying it cannot find "msvcr71.dll" and after that it terminates.
But the status says it dumped successfully yet I can't find anything in the dump folder. I actually can't open the dump folder as my computer can't find it. My computer says it is a missing or broken link.
This is my first time attempting so put me back on the right track.

Thank you very much, works like a charm now.

No user.hv
well it worked well until the next step.
cannot process hkcu with error saying "no user.hv found in current directory" process terminating.

Thank you ather for this kitchen!! I'll try it as soon as possible!

Hello, I tried the kitchen and works very fine until you convert nba into nbf, the problem is that xor key is set for hima. To fix it, I simply change the key to the BA and works.
And I want to ask you for a non transparent version, I don't have a very good sight.
Regards

i must have missed that..will look abt that Transsperency thing in V2

will it be possible to rewrite it into c++, it will speed execution time at least twice

ur wish is my command...My Guru
i will re-write it in C++ but you will require VS 2008 re-distribuatble package

I have not changed the ROM size in the registry. Do I need to change size in reg and hex editor to continue cooking?

Thanks and will try it soon,
Btw,
I upload it for mirror
http://uploads.bizhat.com/file/198197

Okay, hope the ROM I have to cook for a friend will be a working ROM!
Thanks for the kitchen, cooking without a kitchen is never the same as cooking with!

Is there going to be chinese kitchen?

New Project - after all a Quick Peek

I'm working on this project for months (or is it already a year ???) now and this is after all a Quick Peek of the almost "Beta".
It's a GUI for the platformrebuilder.exe with additional functions for editing and new diagnostic functions.
It will be possible to extend the app with plugins (for all devs interested devs, the plug-in API will be public).
The main app is written in mixed code (managed and unmanaged c++), but plugins must be managed (VC++, VC, VB, ...)
All plugins and the GUI support translation... just need to make a new localization.en-us.xml for your language
Ok, pics tell more than words

Packages:
- enable or disable packages
- Show content of packages, rename files or set file attributes, delete files, ...
- rename/delete packages
... and so on
Registry Preview:
- builds a preview of the registry, like it will be on the device after flashing the rom
- includes .reg, .rgu, .provxml files
- filters for: reg, provxml and XIP, SYS, OEM, EXT
- it will show warnings or errors if there are any in the source files
- you can see if one package is overwriting registry entries of another package
... and so on
File Preview:
- builds a preview of files on the device, like it will be on the device after flashing the rom
- includes .dat, .provxml files
- filters for: dat, provxml and XIP, SYS, OEM, EXT
- it will show warnings or errors if there are any in the source files
- you can see if one package is overwriting a file of another package
... and so on
Settings:
- Main settings and settings for the plugins
- Plug-in version information
Output:
- Shows the output of platformrebuilder.exe
- Also plugins can make new output containers, on this pic you see the output of the Execution plug-in (it is executing CreateRom.bat right now)
This is another simple plug-in. Allows you to change the Shadow order of the packages... This plug-in adds a menu entry to the Tools menu
there is no release date yet, because I don't know how much time I'll have to work on this... beside my family and studying
Best regards bepe

Wow. That looks great.
I sure wish we could get something like that for Samsung phones.

there will also be an update for platformrebuilder.exe, fixing some problems that it had with some non HTC devices.
This GUI is basically for all WM devices that can flash custom roms, just making the OS file system... plug-ins can build the right rom then.

this looks great
btw, thanks in advance (Transaction ID: 7X029103UB793424L) for another masterpiece

Excellent!!!!!
hoping release as soon as possible!

cool~~~
wait for it

you are so great ,Bepe.we like your genius works.

This will be purely for rom building right, not for dumping roms per se?

Great works brother !
Can't wait for build rom with your new kitchen !
Keep it up
Tom

Will this kitchen protect all the roms?
Like prb ? remove all the .reloc section of modules ?
Is there any way to turn off the option?
I like your kitchen, but i dont like to protect my rom.

Fantastic!
U are the Man.

WOW!!!!! I always think that you are an alien
It is awsome a simple preview of the files? its amazing I wonder if this New GUI could do some changes to the initflashfiles I mean... maybe if I want a shortcut here or there i could make it mannually and it affects directly to the initflash, (maybe its an impossible idea hehe ) but seeing the images like an emulator I can imagine so much things.
Hope the kitchen has the same improvements as the Ervius and new tools that Da_G is working on... to make the process faster but this is a fantastic idea and its looking good.
Congrats man! a donation coming soon... to support the work

Sweet, can't wait to give it a whirl when it's ready.
Slightly off topic, but since it's based on platformrebuilder, it's probably ok. Your old buildOS works great, but I can't get platformrebuilder to run provxml's after boot (ref here). I went through the normal steps to try to get it working, will this change file attribs and all that during boot time?

[Q] Which kitchen do YOU use?

Hello (^^,)
I'm just curious to see who uses what around here. Soooo as the title says
I use EVK.

Made the switch from EVK to OSkitchen a while ago and have to say it has some cool funtions. cooks fast, easy to understand interface and Airxtreme updates it alot.
If you havent tried it yet i would definitely give it a go

I have done the same.

+1 for EVk because i started with that...... but all new cookers use os kitchen its easy to understand etc....

Oskitchen here. (although the older 1.3 as am having problems with the newer ones for some reason).
Sheer simplicity of use makes it easier for relative noobs like me.

This one for me

I'm using Ervius Kitchen because of it's useful tools such as integrated search between files.

I use OSBuilder by Barin over at asusmobile.ru
It is pretty amazing. You can create your own packages.sof & packages.cif. You can do everything from the kitchen. Right click on an OEM and you can edit the provxml, rgu, dsm or initflashfiles.txt. You have the ability to set what gets deleted from the OEMxipkernel & MSxipkernel. You can also do a Initflashfiles.dat preview, a registry preview (including provxmls) and packages & registry build order preview. Let me know if you need some links.

No kitchen (some time refer to classical kitchen) for Acer S200

I'm kinda interested to see who doesn't use a visual kitchen...

I use old style kitchen (XIPPort + optional BuildOS)

For ultimate control, and better built roms, I use Barin's OS Builder.

Looks pretty sweet in your case, as you produce such a variety of ROMs. Now you have them all on one screen. Perhaps when I'm more experienced I'll try writing my own kitchen

Some DPI too small and Some text Bold

Hi guys,
Need some help on this one. I recently moved to OS Kitchen. Must say pretty impressive. Still exploring it but i faced an issue. i did not change the sys and simple imported my EVK packs and sys(i hope so). When i build using evk, everything is fine, but when i cook using OS Kitchen i face some issues:
1. The resolution on text and some popup displays is small as in below pics.
2. The softkey font is in bold. earlier it used to be normal.

Same thing happened to me with the small text, but I haven't had time to figure it out. I just added some oboe stuff and 23132, but left most things the same as a build in oskitchen without those issues. Will keep an eye on this thread .

Small fonts - this issue is related to the folder structure required for OS Kitchen. In "0409" you will find some packages which are not "0409". Transfer it to "Common" and, no more small fonts.
Bold fonts - This issue is related to the latest WM releases, and, it is on purpose (not a bad idea). The only remedy I know - integrate some files from older COM5 releases. IMHO it is a questionable solution that risks instability by mixing different branches. Better become use to bold.
Hope it helps.

Hi mate..
this appened because when you rebuild your rom with Ervius kitchen
all dsm in all pack in sys are eliminated,
if you have import sys build from EVk to Os,there will be no dsm
required to Os Kitchen

the sys packs in evk have dsm files. so this time i imported sys from the evk folder using oskitchen. but still same issue.

I had this issue with OSB one time, and willysp said he had the issue too.
We basically altered "packages.sof" to rearrange the SYS folders, the order in which they are processed.
Once untouched it was just fine. But it just dont like that SYS order to be messed with.
