Need official RUU_SIGNED.NBH from 1.66.405.2 WWE ROM Update

Hey everyone...not sure where I'm supposed to ask this, so I put it in general.
As I am on a Mac and use HardSPL to flash ROMs, it is not possible for me to upgrade to an official ROM because it is in .exe format. So, I need someone to post the RUU_SIGNED.nbh from the official ROM update (WWE: 1.66.405.2).
I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could help me out and provide the NBH file or point me in the right direction. Thanks

im not aware of any fix with your issues but to use bootcamp and use Windows OS.
You can also try Parallels or Vmware Fusion. Im just not sure if it's gonna work.
i would say maybe. =)
now, regarding .nbh, you can probably post a holla down at the Rom developments section.

I'm not trying to download Bootcamp, Parallels or anything else like that...I just want someone (who has a PC) to grab the RUU_SIGNED.NBH file and post it here. I will send a paypal donation to the person that does so. Thanks

Please can someone post the RUU_SIGNED.NBH from the officially 1.66.405.2 WWE ROM update? I will compensate!

the exe file is actually a zip file. No need to run it. just change the extension to .zip instead of .exe, open it with any decent zip tool (winzip winrar or whatever) and extract the RUU_signed.nbh

download an file archive programme and open the official EXE file with it and you can do it yourself!

I just tried using winrar and it did not work. It will not extract the files. Are you on a PC? If so, it would only take you 2 minutes to grab the file I need and post it here. Thanks.

its a 200 meg file, so sorry no it wont 'just take me a minute'. I can promise you (as can everyone else here) that the .exe file you download is just an executable zip, and we all generally right click it, choose open with winrar, and it opens to show the ten or so files inside, one of which is RUU_Signed.nbh. Then drag n drop the file from there.
If you really are getting an error, you should maybe download it again, something isn't right.

I'm on a Mac also, but I always flash via XP on a Bootcamp partition. I just leave all the flashing stuff there, and only use it for that.

You should also be aware that if you flash the 1.66 rom from sd card you will overwrite your SPL to version 1.6 which means you may have trouble installing HSPL later.

I don't care about that so much. I'm trying to sell the phone and want to sell it as stock as it can be. I'll just flash 1.48...thanks for everyone's help. I'll stick to Android

Exactly. By happy luck/accident, I was unable to do so before I knew this when I first got my HD2, now I have (thanks to everyone here) HSPL installed....but I realize now that If I had been able to install it, I probably would have, not knowing any better, and given myself a lot more difficulty in the process. This is the best source of phone info anywhere on the planet.

that rom will set spl to 3.03.0000 if flashed from sd card, and you would use hspl4 to re apply hspl, should you want to.

I already have hspl to 3.03.0000 and can not load anything when connected to USB, I was trying to go back to hspl 2.08 so i can load recovery. Is there another way.

[Q] o2 HTC HD2 Latest ROM
..... Ignore........

Rom in .img format??

Hey guys
The volume rocker on my HD2 is broken, and I have cLK flashed on my device. My problem is that I can only boot into cLK and fastboot mode as recovery is useless to me because I cant navigate through the options using the volume rocker.
I am looking for a rom (android/winmo) that is a .img file so that I can flash through fastboot, or if any of you know any other possible way I can flash a rom through fastboot so I can get my phone working again. Right now I dont mind which rom I flash, as long as I get my phone in working order again.
All help is GREATLY appreciated....!!!
If anyone also knows how I can compile a rom into a .img file so I can flash through fastboot, that is also welcomed help!

Any ROM you download that is for cLK has a. img file in it. you will have to extract the file from the. zip hou download to find it. Read my post here it will give youthe details on how to flash your ROM.

Hey bud, thanks for the reply, but my question still remains... what about the other 2 folders in the rom folder (META-INF and SYSTEM) what happens with those? lol....

Sorry for the late response but those two files do get used, the img file oules the information from them as it is flashing. To put it simply when you initiate the flash the img does the rest of the work. The img file is sort of like a cab file for Windows Mobile only it is not all self contained and has more functions than just to install the software. Note I said sort of not exactly like, that is just a comparison to help you understand. When you flash a Android ROM via CWM it essentialy just activates the img file to flash the ROM.

Daf roms come as a system.img
or
if you have access to another hd2, flash the target rom to it and then use mkyaffs2img command in the terminal to dump the system folder to a system.img file.
Benefit of this would be you can tweak the rom(reduce size for example, by removing unwanted apps) before you dump to system.img

Thanks for getting back to me buddy! Unfortunately I dont have a second HD2, and I dont know anyone willing to help me out in Greece, lol... Would you be willing to dump your system folder for me and upload it so I can use yours?? I would GREATLY appreciate the help... sitting with my HD2 "semi" bricked... lol
Also, if I use the .img file from the DAF roms, can I flash it using fastboot??? You have any suggestions on how I can flash it considering I cant use the volume rocker on my mobile?

Well id like to say yes but it's Easter weekend and my sons 1st birthday tomorrow, so the likelihood of getting near a PC are slim for a few days.
You could always learn how to use the android emulator,, build the image on a virtual hd2
As for flashing,,, no idea, no clue what fastboot does, magldr for me, but in your OP you implied you could use it to write img files to partitions.

You ever got a solution for this? I'm in the exact same situation right now.

Hi,
All Core Droid ROMS are downloaded as a RAR. file.
Extract this and you will see instructions plus the zip file you need to put on the root of your sd card.

If, as you say there is no longer anything in the download,it must be kinda hard for a noob to install this...

Q.E.D.
@aungpe
Hi,
I think you downloaded a "ZIP"
This should NOT be extracted.
Go to ad recovery and wipe data,cache partition,and dalvik(advanced).
Then go to install zip from sd card
Choose zip from sd card (which you should have placed on the root of your sd card,using a card reader)
After installation,reboot.
Give it time.
Some ROMS take 15-20 minutes to install.

Hey,
Did you extracted the installation file out of the downloaded zip file?
Inside the downloaded file there is a archive file again (forgot what format), this file you have to extract out and copy that file onto your archos
Good luck!

Yes , thats the thing I did , file named UrukDroid-install.tgz copied to the device like it written in the installation procedure ....no need to unzip that one also

Try to download this file:
http://sauron.pourix.com/UrukDroid/UrukDroid-1.0/EI/UrukDroid-install.tgz
It is directly and no need to extract any more.. maybe your archive manager does something wrong..

Maybe tjeres something wrong with the kernel
Download the zImage and the initramfs as single files from here:
http://sauron.pourix.com/UrukDroid/UrukDroid-1.0/EI/
Then flash the kernel again, like you did it before (via the recovery menu)
After try the installation with the as single file downloaded installation file

recap
Flash initramfs.cpio.gz and zImage from SDE boot menu is working fine
after going into
Boot to SDE:
power on (2) Archos, hold up/+ volume key (1) until you see "Archos AXXXX - Boot Menu",
choose "Developer edition" is also working
You should see "UrukDroid 1.0 Installation framework" title. Please choose simple install method. is working well
When asked to, connect Archos to PC (5) once again and copy UrukDroid-install.tgz,
This step is working...transfert can be done
disconnect Archos from PC properly (umount, safely remove device etc.) and press power button (2)
at this point the device saying that there is an invalid file

Try it with advanced install
Choose the recommended values (on the top) but also select that you want to format the partitions and create new ones

[Q] flashing failed :/

I tried to flash my HTC HD2 with this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948
after installing Hardspl 2.08 i used MAGLDR1.13
but now the phone just boots with white screen and HTC logo
i guess i forgot to install the radio?
but what now?
cant reach bootloader
just comes up for one second when i try hardreset
then asks for restoring to factory setting but that doesnt work neither
is it possible to autoflash with some sort of sd card
or do i have a chance to get at least usb connection up again ?
Thanks for help
edit
ive read that its possible to boot from sd card, using some sort of LEOIMG.nbh at root directory
extracted exe file and renamed "RUU_signed.nbh" to LEOIMG.nbh
ill try next step tommorow
gn8 ^^

You know the keys to get into bootloader isn't the same as for a hard reset, right?
Hold volume down only, tap and release power, release vol down only when stripey screen appears.

uhm, thanks ...
i swear it didnt work but for some reason now works
ive read in that guide
"3. Browse to the folder you extracted your NAND Android Package files to on your pc, right click on Run DAF.exe (or Install.exe if DAF.exe isnt present) and select Run as Administrator"
but in "Tyween's Typhoon CM7 v3.6.3" rom is neither daf or install.exe?
Do i have to launch magldr from pc and preload rom into it, befor transfering it into htc?
sorry ... im still confused
well okay i think i hav eto upload some files into it, but which? all of zip or do i have to upload the original zip?
inside that zip theres "boot, meta-inf and system"

Copy the whole zip to SD and install it from cwm.

ive done it, thanks
