Looking for HTC VIVA (OPAL) Chefs - Windows Mobile

Hello everyone,
I've recently been trying to follow numerous threads at XDA to make myself a HTC Viva (Opal) kitchen so that all I have to do it put the CAB files in and out comes a ROM file.
However, since I'm very new to this...I always keep getting stuck.
If someone can make me a HTC Viva Kitchen simple enough that it only requires choosing the CAB files, I'd be very grateful. I'm even ready to pay. Whoever is interested, please PM me so that we can discuss this further.
Thanks!

Cannot convert to package
Hi,
Please see the attached cab file. I'm unable to convert this to a EXT package file.
Any clues?
Thanks.
Mod Edit: Link deleted, posting warez goes against the rules, consider this as a warning.

Please delete that file because its warez:
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, either pay or find your cracks and serials somewhere else. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.
9. Don't get us in trouble.
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things that will obviously lead to legal trouble. If you wouldn't do it on your own homepage, you probably don't want to do it here either. This does not mean we agree with everything the software piracy lobby try to impose on us, it simply means you cannot break any laws here, since we'll end up dealing with legal hassle caused by you. Please use common sense: respect the forum, its users, and those that write great code.

Last step: Flashing NBH....
Hello,
Thanks to XDA and the wonderful community here....I've been able to finally get a custom ROM (nbh file) made for the HTC Opal using osKitchen.
Next question: How do I flash an NBH file?
I've through quite a few forums/posts on this one, but invariably run into some problem or the other.
I'm trying to flash the ROM using my SD Card (FAT32) by putting the nbh file on it (renamed to OPALIMG.nbh) and going into bootloader mode.
However, it says "invalid certificate" and refuses to proceed from there.
Some say I need USPL. (Can't find any USPL for Opal)
Can someone please throw some light on this issue? I'm so close to getting my own ROM....Any help is appreciated....
Thanks!!

Pls advise

I am sure if i found here a right section to post my thread pls correct me if i am wrong in any way....
I'm a newbie here. Lately, i spent some certain time on checking out this forum, and found most i needed. I must say this is such a great ppc site which's globalized with many experts from all over the world.
By following the tools and instructions provided by experts here, i believe i successfully unlocked my HTC device, and i'd like to do a switch with other Roms. Unfortunately, i couldn't get it though i found. Because i don't know why they were just uploaded to Rapidshare which it's pretty hard for me to get it. My HTC device has too many unuseful built-in programmes that i don't need at all.
So i hope some one can help with out there
here's my device info.
HTC P3600 WM6 Pro. (Eng)
CE OS 5.2.1437(build17944.0.3.1)
Rom:3.00.707.17
Rom date:06/29/07
Radio:1.16.00.00

There are plenty of "light" roms. These have virtually no programmes installed and so you can put on just what you need. Check ou t a light ROM - and update your radio - you can then use the GPS in your trinity, too.
it's a common misconception that removing programs from the rom somehow free up space to use for other things
rom space is rom space and using a rom which dont fill it up dont leave more space to storage or other programs
if programs are in the rom and not autostarted when the pda starts they have absolutly no impact on performance or anything for the pda
Got cha man
thank you for your explanation....but can i ask you a question? What if i get O2 rom into my HTC P3600, would it be possible to do that...? i hope to get more information....hehe....thanks

Origignal German Tmobile rom needed or way to backup it.

Hey guys you really need to help me on this.
I wanted to update my athena to wm6. Unfortunatly i didnt run the unlocker before and now i can´t even do a hard resest.
But i can go in booloader mode. People adviced me run the unlocker but the athena isent recogniced by the unlocker. So i cant do this either. Except you can say to me what went wrong?
So i think the only thing to rescue my ameo is to get the original tmobile german rom so that i dont get the wrong vender id error.
If somebody of you can supply me with that it would be awesome. If not is there a way to make an installer or backup of the german rom. Because i have a friend who has a working ameo. But he is no geek. So the complex cant be to complex.
Plz help me my ameo is not running for days and i want to use it again.
You're going in the right direction by starting a new thread here. However, people with the skills may not be reading this forum. May I suggest that you post this question also on a forum more likely to be read by people who knows how to do this as well?
I was thinking maybe here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=259 since your question is relevant to all phones, not just Ameo.
Also, all the ROM cooks must know. May be PM them will give you better chance of getting help?
There is this very clever guy by the name of dark simpson who started this thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311909
I also suggest that you read this thread to get a feel of his area of expertise. I read only a few posts in the thread so far not think he definitely knows a tool that you can use to extract your ROM. Read this thread to see if your question is already answered. Else may be you could PM him to give you pointers on how to solve your problem.
Good luck, and I hope you get it working soon.
thank you that helps i will check the thread.
See the next post
This article is more directly relevant for your problem.
http://www.modaco.com/content/Daily...p-rebuilding-and-restoring-your-SPV-M700-ROM/
He outlined 9 steps there. The first step could be ignored as it deals with installing Olipro's unlocker.
Step 2 to 8 deals with backing up the ROM. Some steps pertains to optimizing the size of the bin file and is not really needed, but I guess there is no harm still. All the tools you need are there too. Step 9 is to flash the WM5 rom created by step 2 to 8.
After that, you could install Olipro's unlocker then flash to PK 3.0.
The author of this thread, Paul, looks like a nice and helpful guy. I suggest that you read his articleon how to back up ROM carefully. It's on a different device,but I think the principle is the same. Once you have understood the step, get him to help you to adapt the procedure for Ameo.
Hope that helps you.
Edit: more links and potential helpers/authors
http://www.modaco.com/content/HTC-H...rebuilding-and-restoring-your-HTC-HERMES-ROM/
thank you that looks quit complicated, i dont know if i can convice the friend to install a lot of apps on his device, he is more like a bussines partner but perhaps i find somebody on the net, who will do it for me and i can supply them with the guide.
What do you think in which forum im most likly to find somebody with the original german tmobile rom?
If you read the link carefully, you'll see that there is no need to install anything on your friend's unit. It will only do a read. Not write involved. Anyway, the most likely forum where people have that ROM is here.
Anyone still on Tmobile WM5 (german) able to help?
hey i carefully read the thread and even i don´t understand it fully. Its not that easy to do. I don´t think he can do it. This is procedure for experts. Anybody must have the original rom here.
ok thanks for your help. I found the solution in a german forum. For everybody needing the german rom go to http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?p=964813#post964813

Lets COOK some ...... ANDROID !

With kind regards and thanks to a member of this forum, stuliv12, who provided us with a link to a HTC Click ROM, im asking all the chefs of this forum to be so kind and port Android on Jade. Only you have the skills needed to do so.
I believe that many of us here would want to make their Jade even better, by running Android on it
I have uploaded the ROM to Megaupload, so that you dont have to go to the original site and register.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=FSD6CJ8N
Looking forward to seeing and testing Android on Jade.
Thank You in advance.

It's really good news. Let's improve this sparkle and make a big fire.
I want to use Android on my Jade so much.
I'm willing to support to develepors at least as a tester.
I appreciate the efforts of arseny1991 to encourage the Jade users about Android.
I hope we'll hear some good news soon.
Greetings,
I also would love to help with this project.
Please cooks, tell me how i could help... I have some IT knowledge, but really didnt had the time yet to learn how to cook...
Regards,

i believe that we need to test Android with Haret first, because its more safe (we wont brick our Jade).
To do so, we should get the kernel out of the Tattoo ROM. Any idea how we can do that ? How to decompile the ROM provided earlier in this thread ?
I did have a go at opening up the attached file (the .exe above)
I used uniextract to extract the .exe and then that revealed a whole load of files, but the bulk of the space was taken by a cab file (90 odd mb). I tried to open the cab but can't succeed - I can see the content is made up of 2 files and 1 of the files is a .img file so this is the kernel.
All have a go and see if you can get to this file.
Louis
thats the same with me, i can see the two files and the .img, but i cant seem to extract it, if i could, i have the hariet for my elf, and can just swap the img files etc to see how it starts.
The main issues i would have thought would be how the keys are mapped, as the Tattoo has the home and back buttons, i assume we could re-map these to up and down respectivly?
any thoughts?
Lets not get ahead of ourselves worrying about the mapping of buttons - the first major hurdle is getting all the necessary files, and then the second major hurdle is booting - Once we have achieved those 2 goals we can worry about button mapping.
Anybody got any ideas about how to extract those files? Anybody extract files from a HTC rom .exe before as they could be packed in a similar fashion.
Louis
look what i stumbled upon.....

What are your impressions about android compared with WM ?

1. the scrolling is very smooth on the tattoo much faster than my jade
2.the music sound 100 times better than the jade(tattoo has a 3.5jack)
3. putting aps on the android is a bit if a pain ie u just cant download a cab and just click it on ur phone these are .apk files and to install the same u need to use the sync and a tool called the aps installer on the same to install an application this u can do only through the comp a little bit of a a pain
and their is some thing called the rooting on the android something like our HSPL i still havent got it its not as easy as the HSPL we do
u need to create a gold card all that stuff which is still quite confusing
but i am enjoying the feel of the tattoo its great experience
and u dont have anything like our pim backup for the android so every time u flash a new rom u need to sync with ur comp or google account
this is also quite a pain for me
but u realy cant compare a WM to ADM
from my experience both are diffrent and thank god i kept my jade and did not dispose it so i got two toys to pay with
Note : the india version of the tattoo is not 3G
Thanks Haree for the reply. I think that Android is very promising OS but we are in the beginning and like anything it needs time to be well developed , also programs for it. In this point of view WM is years in front.

[Q] How to Upgrade Iolite to WinMo 6.5?

Hello dear Xda-Developers forum,
i came here because i want to upgrade my XDA Guide (HTC Iolite) to the new WinMo 6.5 from Iomega staff.
First things first,
i have already read quite a few "how-to's" but still cant solve this issue.
I wanted to dump my rom first before i start to install the new one, so i've dumped 4 .raw parts from my phone but as i wanted to merge them into a rom with ervius-kitchen it just deleted these parts and gave me an error.
Also when i dump my phone via an exe and not by typing it in a cmd window i only get 2 .raw files. Is this an error or is the rest just not needed?
Next i have some quite basic problems:
-What is a .nbh file and where do i get it to cook a rom?
-If possible is there already a Stock O2 German rom i could download? (Google gave me no results)
-I have no idea how to install a new rom
Thanks in advance,
Micha
Solved.
I've been able to install the rom but however am not able to form my dumps into 1 .nbh. Anyway since i don't seem to get an answer to that i see this thread as of no further use and would admit and Admin deleting it.
Merry Christmas
Micha

[Q] HELP! Wants to convert to Android =)

Hi All,
Firs of all I want to say, what a great site. Fantastic that there are people who all pull together for the good of technology.
Now to what I am looking to do,
I have the HTC HD 2 running windows 6.5 (I think). Now I want to install Android to run off the SD card, I know this is possible as it is all over xda/net, what I am finding is there is not a link to say "This is the latest one and here is how to do it" (Correct me if I am wrong or point me in the direction)
Could anyone please send me a link to the download of the best working android for my HD2 that will run off the SD card.
I have a good understanding of application deployment etc, I just need a basic instruction and a link to the files required.
Any help would be greatly apreciated.
Many thanks,
Jake =)
