Extended_ROM Read Only - Can't Unlock - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

I'm trying to add a file and modify the config.txt file in the extended_rom folder however it says that it is read only.
When I run the unlock tool, it is giving me the following error. How can I get around this?
debug
ERROR:
FL_OICTL_BDTL_HW_PROTECTION - A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Also the device is a TelecomNZ - Harrier, and I am using the Unlocker from this page.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_ERK_X_Zip

The tool does not seem to work on the harrier: I remember that there was another tool around alas I have no idea if that worked.
You need to look through the harrier threads about that, I dont rember which one.

Found this unlocker works.
http://www.myehud.com/xv6600/cabs/ExtTools.exe

Have posted it in the kitchen section of wiki.
Any instructions for this? (so that I can add them as well)

Yeah it was simple to use, copy the file to your Harrier and run it.
Also this is the post I got it from.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=17408
Some extra instructions if it doesn't work, but I didn't need to do this.
"If that doesn't unlock it, and gives a hardware io control
error, try using a binary editor on the file.
Look for ReIrRaH and replace it with eNiPlA
(Harrier and Alpine backward with alternating case). "

I have redone
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_ERK_X_Zip
Can you please check if it makes sense from a Harrier point of view, if you find anything then just use the edit at the bottom left of your screen.
Thanks

Done, I have changed the wording around for the install and excute a bit and removed the note about Harriers users not having an option to unlock.

Ta!

Can't write Extended Rom

I am unable to unlock the extended ROM and read and copy the data contained there but I cannot write to or modify any of the files there.
Is there anyway to unlock the flash for write operations?
Thanks
G
Cabs are read only in ext rom, change the attrib.
The xda tool has an unlock and an unhide. one is to beable to see the ext rom the other to write to it
i gave that a try, it seems that the rom is read only, I am unable to copy additional cabs to the Extended rom.
Is this a Harier device?
XDAIIs BlueAngel
Did you do a softreset after the unlock?
Yip, I also tried the same process after an O2 upgrade rom, same results
If I use the exe lock tool with -unlock I get an error
Well dont think you are using the same tool. Pop of to wiki in the kitchen under kitchen tools. Try that one, its the one I use.
I used this tool
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_ERK_Tools
The unlock tool on the top of the page
I also did a hard reset and now when I execute the cab I cant even see the Extended Rom now, I was able to see it before, I just couldnt write to it.
I found a smaller rom viewer cab, I can see the extended rom now, but I still can't write to it, it tells me the media is write protected.
Hope you meant soft reset.
Thats the correct tool, you need to unhide, softreset, unlock, softreset
The files are under programms extrom tools
nope, did a hard reset to be sure, ok so I unhide with the cab file reboot, then run the exe with a -unlock and reboot then I should be ok?
I will try again.
ok, I get ERROR: FL_IOCTL_BDTL_HW_PROTECTION - A device attached to the system is not functioning.
any ideas?
Sorry time for me to give up on you. Just to convince myself that I was telling you the correct steps i installed the tool again, softreset, did a unlock (got an write protect error) so softreset again. Thus confirming the fact you need a softreset after both actions.
"then run the exe with a -unlock "
This part a fail to understand on the tool of wiki you end up with an icon, you tap it, "no run the exe with -unlock"
So as you have a BA and not a harrier were we know you need a differwnt tool, and as you are using a tool that we know that works the only 2 conculsions I can come up with are.
1) You have a faulty device
2) you are not using the tool or the steps needed to run the tool in the correct manor.

Devicedata.txt

Hi,
According to the Wiki, it says that to obtain the Device Info, to execute the
Getdevicedata.exe and it will generate a file called \Windows\Devicedata.txt
Well.. i did that and all i see in Devicedata.txt is "Ph20B"
I am suppossed to see more right ?
hey guys... i think im a lil sleepy... haha...
I saw on the wiki
Warning This is a 3k file and if opened on your device it will truncate after the first word. The file has blanks and unprintable characters in it.
opened it up in notepad and it works fine...
Thanx Anyways....
Remember that you cannot alter device data in TypeII roms, use the MaUpgradeUt_noID file for TypeII roms
i had no intention to alter it

Modded Cappackage.pxp Files

So I thought it would be worthwhile to create a thread focusing on modified "cappackage.pxp" files. These are the files which control the default carrier specific configurations. In my case, I am running the Aussie "Three" WM6 OS, however I wanted some, but not all, of the ATT customizations. For example, I wanted the proxy tool, the logos and the certs . . . Attached is a modified version of the ATT cappackage.pxp file. I had difficulty configuring WindowsMobileLive.cab and the HTC task manager to automatically install as part of this new file so I will post those cab files as well for convenience (for those who may want it).
If you have a customized cappackage.pxp, please post it in this thread and describe how it has been modified so everyone can decide which they may want to use.
Here are the changes I made to the cappackage.pxp file. Note, all of these .cab files should be possible to install directly simply by extracting from original ATT WM6 cappackage.pxp in case you happen to need one of them:
delete getgood.cab
delete getmail.cab
delete realplayer.cab
delete getmobitv.cab
delete cmradio.cab
delete attmallandmusic.cab
delete musicid.cab
delete jarguarrm.cab
delete gettelenav.cab
alter "Att_Settings.prov.xml" to remove messaging and Windows Mobile Live registry customizations
add install of new devstate.dll (exists in 3AUS cappackage.pxp and also in ROW 2.23 cappackage.pxp)
ABS
EDITED 12-30-2007: Note - this altered cappackage.pxp file is based off the "leaked" ATT WM6 ROM.

Thanks, any idea if we can add another carrier in the carrier_db file that isn't there?

I honestly do not know. Sorry. You might ask Olipro as he seems to be very knowledgeable.
abs99, what tool did you use to repackage your PXP file. I've tried several archive tools to .ZIP and rename, but no joy. I've looked, but can't find any info on PXP file creation. Surely, I'm missing something simple here.
TIA
I found that "winrar" can handle the files without a problem. I had also noticed that the date stamps were the same for all the files in the original package, so I also use a tool called "stamp it" to set all the dates on all the files in the new package to the same original date.
thanks. I found that 7-zip is working too.
Now, the next step, I'm trying to mod the capdata.xml file and for whatever reason the device will not recognize it after my mods.
Here's my version of an ATT config file:

Any thoughts? This is just a basic mod and plan to get more detailed configs in there once I figure out what I'm doing wrong.

The issue with this file may be that editor you are using is adding "white space". I found that some editors caused this to occur. I ended up the file in notepad to avoid the problem as it was a real mess to deal with any other way. You should open the original unedited file and your new edited file in notepad and compare both. For whatever reason, the OS does not like to deal with a properly formatted .xml file!
Thanks mate, the white space and file size were the culprit. Was trying to cheat and use MS xmlnotepad - very easy to use, but it added the whitespace as it made it pretty to look at. I also was trying to cram too much into my archive; the extracted archives need to fit in the 8.4mb along with the archive itself.
Attached is a custom CapPackage.PXP with the following (based from ATT 2.25 ROW, CapPackage.PXP):
ATT Theme
Regional Settings: US, - 5 EST
ExtROM mount and rename
Custom ringtone
Custom Sounds Settings
Delete poutlook.lnk from startup
Set Hello to ATT
Disable CAB security policy
Removed all ATT applications (CV, real, win live, etc)
TODO: Incorporate RegHacks of additional settings customization and tweaks (lots of typing...), right now I install and merge the apps I want after initial setup completes.
Cheers
HOW TO
***always a good idea to backup existing files before attempting any modification***
1. mount your extended rom (search for the cabs and instructions on this site)
2. copy the CapPackage.PXP from ExtendedROM\Partition to your PC
3. extract the contents to a folder named CapPackage on your PC (any ZIP compliant archive tool will do)
4. remove/add the *signed* cab files your desire (unsigned cab files simply get passed over)
5. open capdata.xml in epcEDIT or notepad.
6. add/remove the configuration information as desired - this is where some trial and error comes in trying to determine what commands control what function.
7. ZIP (no other archive format seems to work) the CapPackage folder to CapPackage.PXP (or rename .zip to .pxp).
8. copy to ExtendedROM and hardreset.
TODO:
-Hope to be able to post a list of commands for the XML to enable configure of most if not all device "settings"
-Hope to figure out a way to get unsigned cabs to install (present workaround is a zip extract and registry commands if the app isn't too complex (e.g. lots and lots of typing required)
--Not sure yet if reg hack setting "HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies' valuename '0000101a' to dword:1" will resolve this during initial setup
Okay, after getting my questions about how this all works and saves the space on the phone, I took the plunge and upgraded from 2.23ROW to 2.25ATT. Went smooth as butter, and I have a "decrapified" phone with the official, supported ATT release (just in case I have any problems and need support).
Of course, being a hacker, now I'm totally intrigued by this cappackage customization, and want to play with it myself. So, Tim et. al., two questions:
Does the capdata.xml file have to match the contents of the archive? Or, if something's missing, it's just ignored? I'd like to be able to delete some more stuff and remake the PXP file without having to hassle with the XML file and run into the problems you have (workable, but I just don't want to waste time on whitespace issues if I don't have to).
Does the carrierDB file need to stay in the extended ROM for any reason after install and setup? I'd like to archive it on my PC, and delete it from the extrom so I can use that space for general storage.
microsoft word has a wonderful xml file editor. rather than try and keep everything straight in that jumbled up mess you get out of notepad or some other editor, word indents all the xml, and makes it look like it should. it was a snap to edit. I used Winrar and opened the PXP file. I never extracted the contents. Just the capdata file. I edited it, and then put the edited version back into winrar. using winrar I deleted the files I didn't want. saved the archive and moved it back to the device.

1. The XML will bypass anything it can't actually do.
2. I have tried it both ways and feel like I've had no issues, but I have seen some reports of strange behavior without it. I currently have it in my ExtROM since I hard reset my device often as I test apps and config settings. If you don't hard reset very often then once the device is hard reset you may delete and gain an additional 1.45mb.
The thing I intend to work on next is creating a provisioning XML to call an external XML (outside of the cappackage). I'm hoping this way I will be able to strip even more out of the cappackage (literally everything but the capdata.xml) and hav an on the fly configuration capability and call installations and configuration from the SD card. Haven't had much time to play with it though.
Can someone help point me in the right direction to get start loading the cappackage. I can't seem to find how to mount the extended ROM. I did a search for it and everything that came up didn't explain it (or at least I didn't understand it if it did).
Hmm, I can't seem to find the original thread either. Really just registry entries, but the cab's make it easier.
See attached...
Run each in order, then soft reset
Cheers
FYI: You can use my cappackage (see pg 1) as a starting/reference point for building the extROM mount into the initial config process after hard reset...
Try this. ...............

Thanks to both of you for the quick response
I don't know whether it is because of this or because of something else. But I started modding this CapPackage file, and all of a sudden my treo just started acting weird. I had to hard reset it several times throughout the day. Then I upgraded to the 2.25 WM6. And that is where **** really hit the fan (I upgraded and put my own CapPackage version in it). And after that I've had nothing but trouble. Soft resets didn't work anymore, it just crashed on the boot screen. Hard resets work, but really slow, takes about 20min. So now I'm re-upgrading to 2.25 and just leaving that CapPackage file alone for now .

Trouble with ROM cooking

(First post and not really good english)
One week after i bought my phone (HTC P4350, unbranded) i discovered this site/forum. A very usefull site, i learned much.
Now i am going to try to build my own rom. Based on this howto. (not Vista, but XP Professional)
(WM6: All WM6/WM6.1 ROMS --> All Official HTC Roms --> WWE version)
first i followed the howto without modifications to SYS and OEM to test if everything was working. result: as expected, a working phone.
next step was to remove some folder from SYS.
first try: remove 'windows update' (AUTOUPDATE, Autoupdate_Lang_0409)
flashed to phone, result: Start->Settings->Tab System->Windows Update fully functional, so it is not removed at al,
second try:
restored AUTOUPDATE, Autoupdate_Lang_0409
removed INTERNETSHARING
flashed to phone, result: Start->Programs->Internet Sharing, functional for so far i could test (no internet on phone, sim in other phone), but IntShrUI.exe was available in \Windows
Troubleshooting/Guesses about what went wrong
- Am i deleting stuf in the right directory (C:\Core\Hypercore\Build\SYS)
- Can i continue working in the kitchen after i flashed one time, or should i delete c:\core and start al over again by every modification?
after some houres searching on google and this site i did not found the solution or anyone with a problem like this.
i am doing something wrong, but do not know what.
'Met vriendelijke groet' (Greetings)
Robin
You're doing fine. Not sure why you would still have functioning parts after removing them... you took them off the SYS folder and place them where? (Somewhere NOT in the build folder.)
no, not in the build folder, i put a 'backup'/'copy' in a subfolder of 'my documents'
so i don't think that is the problem
edit:
i carefully read the howto for x time again and know i am wondering if (as below, quote) also goes for SYS folder, find everything with 'intshrui.exe', 'internet sharing', 'autoupdate', 'autoupdate.exe', etc
Add the oem packages into the oem folder. Total commander and networkwzard don’t require removal off default files from the oem folder, but comm. Manager do, and so do htc home. The way I use to find duplicate files, is before I add the oem packages, I open in.ex the new package with comm manager, and I highlight the OEM folder and rightclick and choose searchtab. Search for files, type in search “comm.” And all files containing the word “comm.” Will be displayed, dele them (make sure they belong to comm manager, that the names matches the one in your package)
When you have searched for all files in your package, and deleted them from the OEM folder, you can add you package.
Follow same steps for all packages you add, that can have duplicate files, if you don’t you will get error when building the rom, and the build process will terminate, tell you what file is duplicate. You must then find the file, and remove it (don’t remove the one in your new package)

You did it correctly... I wonder if it's really building the ROM or just flashing what's already in there...
I would offer that you use my kitchen, but I think you would definitively keep trying at the HyperCore because it sounds like you might be one of the next generation of cooks. My kitchen is more for the average person who doesn't want to or have the time to learn how to cook but wants their own custom ROM.
what i want for now i a rom with the software i 'need' of like.
i will give your kitchen a try, this link right?
but i don't give up with HyperCore because it should work. if other can do it, i can do it (i think)

I'll be uploading Beta 2 soon with a LOT of fixes, you might want to wait until then. Any packages that you'd like to see there before I start uploading?
most packages that i need are in the list.
Basis apps like Office, audio manager are there, same goes for tools.
Your kitchen works easy. Nice work.
With the current release (downloaded at +/- 20:00 GMT+1) has some errors while building. Such as 'the file 'temp\dump\winlive.htm' already exists'.
i think i can handle those error my self, isn't it?

the double in \tem\ is not important... but there msut be a double in one of the sys or oem folders. try to search them and delete one of them....
Exactly. Do a search for the OEM and SYS folder for the files in question and delete the duplicate. All these errors have been fixed in the Beta 2, but I haven't had time to upload them, yet. (Tried last night but the connection went out half way through it.)
On a brighter note, I'm slowly buying all the parts I need this week to finally rebuild my computer!! (For those that have been here long enough to know my PC fried and I've been working off my ancient laptop for a while.)
when you have uploaded beta2 i will give it a try
good luck with (re)building your pc
i think i know what went wrong..
When starting Hypercore\Panel\Build\BuildOS there are for me 3 options
1. Start "Build OS"
2. Create OS.nb from Sys and OEM
4. Flash
The first time (without changes to SYS and OEM) i copied OS.nb to HyperCore\Tools\RUU for flashing my phone.
By the second test with changes to SYS and OEM i started BuilOS, followed all 3 steps but did not copy OS.nb to HyperCore\Tools\RUU so the first ROM is flashed again, and not my modified ROM
I will now give it another try and will let know the result. But i'm pretty sure this was the problem.
Thanks already for trying to help me.
That would DEFINITIVELY be a problem. lol
After you run 1, then 2, the os.nb will be at the build folder after.
Still some trouble
here i am again.
i don't know if i should start a new thread or go further with this one.
After i removed some software, i am now trying to add software (oem packages). As source i have some cab files. They have to be converted to an oem package, (i read, found on this forum). So i tried to.
Reading and applying this one, and this one BuildOS make trouble.
An messagebox appears with 'Data Exception' and in the bottom (status) is says
[ Error, Last status: "Processing: OEM\OEMAPPS... Searching for dsm file" ]
I tried also with an OEM Package (PocketRAR) downloaded from here.
It keeps saying the same error.
Who can help me?
if you need more information you can ask me for it.

Simple WM6.1 ROM kitchen

For those of you who want to customize wm6.1, here it a simple ROM kitchen to do so. Beginners, please wait for my GUI release. It is much simpler to use. This isn't that hard, but it takes a little bit of time on your side.
The basics:
All software and regedits are contained in folders called OEM packages. These are in the OEM folder.
All operating system stuff is in the SYS folder. I've also moved the shadow drivers here so you don't have to mess with them.
To make OEM packages:
Download ervius's package creator 5.4 from XDA-developers. Use this to open the cab file to convert into a package.
Copy the OEM package to the OEM folder.
Do NOT delete the OEM packages you don't want. You will choose them later in a different way.
NOTE: You can always download premade OEM packages from XDA-Develoers. There are tons of options.
If you want to make a regedit.
Create a new folder in the OEM folder and convert it into a package using Package Creator 5.4.
Open the RGU file inside with notepad
Edit like following. Note that this isn't the way to comment in regedit files:
Code:
REGEDIT4 <-----Make sure this is always the first line
------Leave one line blank here-------
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Example Software\Example Key] <----- Navigate to keys like this
"Example String" = "test" <-------- Write values with quotes. Strings are given with quote after the equal sign.
"Example Directory" = "Windows\\test.jpg" <------ Use \\ to indicate a \ between directories. Otherwise, the ROM build will not work.
"Example Number" = dword: 5000 <----- use dword: to indicate a number or hex value.
<----- You can add more reg entries after the first one. Make sure to specify a different key when needed
-----leave 2 lines at the end of file------
For Sliding Panels:
Leave ROM as it is.
For Neo interface:
Replace Chome folders and bronze folders in SYS folder with the ones attached below.
Select Neo Interface in the buildos step.
Build ROM:
start buildos.bat
when it opens packagetools+buildos, click on the buildos tab.
Click load rom and navigate and select the kitchen folder
Select which oem packages you want and then click Go.
Once it is done, close out.
Sit back and relax for a while so the batch file can build the ROM.
Self-explanatory from here.
Post any questions/problems here.

NOTES: The inlcuded T-Mobile Edition Package is my beta version. Feel free to build on it. You might also notice the empty placeholder folder for my N33D4SP33D Edition rom that I haven't worked on yet.
To make OEM packages:
Download ervius's package creator 5.4 from XDA-developers. Use this to open the cab file to convert into a package.

I found the program but get many errors when I start it up on my computer.. Im currently running Vista Ultimate. I went into control panel and changed the enviroment to emulate WinXP when the program runs and still get many errors..
Is there a vista friendly program out there or alternative available?
I'm running Vista Ultimate too and it works perfectly for me.
Attached is the version I have.

Great! yours works thanks alot now to get my feet wet in all this lol
I got this error
'Error building default.hv and user.hv! (see imto "BuildOsX-log.Txt")
i can't see anything in there. What now. Thanks
Do you mean there's nothing in the BuildOsX-lot.txt? There should be. A few lines from the last, or the last line, there should be the registry file that messed up and on which line it messed up on. The file is given by the GUID, or that long string of numbers and letters that you see.
no, there is nothing what tell me what to do. so what should i do with that error.
i will make stick this thread.Hope next times will see some roms with this kitchen
Thanks tom. I'll make sure to post my GUI kitchen soon to let more people create ROMs a lot easier.

ImportFromPackageListStrict: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed importing ".\Registry\fcbf420c-04fd-478f-bd29-e4ab55973337.rgu"
wmain: (RGUComp) !ERROR failed building DEFAULT hives
Looked through each App in the OEM folder until I found the matching rgu number, which in my case is the HTC DirectShow. Took that out of my ROM build, ran again and it states that it completed.
I think there is a problem with the directshow package. I'll check the registry entries. Until then, I think you might need to go without that.
This may sound like a stupid question, but hear me out. I have used BuildOS in the past for an Apache from PPCGeeks\PPCKitchens. Once the ROM is finished creating in that version it auto prompts to update your device.
After the ROM is done in your version, I then selected the Package Tool tab and pointed it to the "temp" directory and it did it's thing. Now I am at a loss for what to do next. I see a .nb file temp\dump\ROM directory but i don't see a .nbh file. Do I use the NBHTool even though PHOEB is not listed?

I'm not too worried about the directshow, I just that maybe the other guy was getting the error for the same reason so figured I would pass on my resolution.
Sorry, I guess I didn't completely read you post. For the HTC Rom Tool, use the exacalibur settings. Those are the exact same as the Juno.
all I have is o4_osxip.nb.exe in the temp folder no nbh is this the right nb. file I use with
htc tool I put exacalibur settings but don't no what to put in firmware contents
do I put o4_osxip.nb.exe in system and none in the ipl spl and splash and 0x800 radio
ok i did this
Build ROM:
start buildos.bat
when it opens packagetools+buildos, click on the buildos tab.
Click load rom and navigate and select the kitchen folder
Select which oem packages you want and then click Go.
Once it is done, close out.
Sit back and relax for a while so the batch file can build the ROM.
ok where is the rom all i have is o4_osxip.nb.exe in the temp
i have no file imgfs-new.bin in the temp all i have is 04_OSXIP.nb.exe and cecompr_nt.dll and CECompressv4.dll
and where would i look for the batch file
Thank you for your works, ND4SPD
but i can not download your kitchen, it says reached the 4G limit.
because i want to know is there any wrong method i used.
My issue is :
when buildimgfs, the total sections can not bigger than 1B200.
when i put too many files into the imgfs file, the buildimgfs will quit without any info.
but the 71M imgfs.bin have about 22000 sections.
do you have issue too ?
Is it because my PC have only 1G RAM, not enough to do the building?
@Hikey: I have that same problem too. It's the way t-mobile packaged the rom. I'm going to try using the dopod rom for the base next. It might be the PC too. I only have 1GB of RAM, maybe it isn't enough.
@kron2:
run buildos
download this zip: http://www.sendspace.com/file/xuhlc5
copy the files from the zip archive to the temp directory.
open up the cmd that's now in the temp directory.
type the following:
Code:
ImgfsFromDump imgfs-old.bin imgfs-new.bin
Sit back and relax. If this finishes without crashing like Hikey said, do this:
Code:
ImgfsToNb imgfs-new.bin 04_OSXIPN.nb os.nb -conservative
Now you can run the htccert program in the main directory of the kitchen to build the rom. When you are done making the nbh, copy it to the RUU folder and run the update utility.
