Cingular ROM exe file - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Is there anyone that can create a Cingular ROM.exe file like the ones that have been created for other ROMs. I would do it if I had any clue how to do that. Thanks to anyone that can help...

Extracting CABs from a ROM

Anyone on here know how to Extract a CAB file from a ROM/Extended ROM? ive been trying to find something about this on here and cant seem to find anything that pertains to it. there are several programs that are included in roms and extended roms that i have and i wold like to be able to put them on my 8125 with the ROM i have now. Thanks in Advance!
Corey
If you already have a cabfile that resides in the extended rom the process is quite easy... just use total commander and copy the file from there to a place on your device where you can later use it...
If you don't have a cabfile but just a program, say arcsoft mms composer that's already integrated into the rom, the process gets a little more complicated, but not impossible. You will, however, need to know all the files that the program uses, dll's, imagefiles, exe's and registry posts, copy them from rom to your windows pc and from there use a program like ce cab manager to create a cabfile for it (if you want. you can merely transer all the files and registry posts to your current rom without creating a cab)

cool, thanks for the info, what program do i need to use to unpack the NBF so i can access the files? I tried to use the one in the wiki (typho5) but i cant seem to get it to work.
for dumping rom's read through this thread
You'll probably want to read it all and I'm sure that it wont make that much sense to begin with but it'll come to you
For converting a nbf to nb files use:
Code:
typho5.exe -x nk.nbf
typho5.exe -x nk.nbf does NOT make it a .nba file!
It extracts the contents of the rom (OS, Extended Rom, Radio, Splash Screen, IPL/SPL) into .nb files.
The Extended Rom file can be opened with WinImage.

extracting nk.nbf

hey
I am using windows xp on my desktop so when i try to extract the nk.nbf files using dumprom a window opens like that of cmd prompt and closes immediately. can anyone tell me of a software that works on xp since i dont know linux,unix and other stuff expect windows.
I searched the forums but I could't find such programs.
can anybody help me plz since I am trying to cook rom on my own using the procedure given by faria .
I found that the batch files that are included in the ROM cooking tools don't work, but typing the commands that are in the batch files work fine. Try that, it worked for me.
Not got around to cooking my own ROM yet though
HTH

try looking here
THANKS it worked
Still need help
Ok I must be missing something.
I probably found it but just did not know it.
most things need a nk.nbf file to start with.
Where do I get one ?
Does it make a differance what it is ?

It makes ALL the difference
The RUU files are compressed pakages with the various files used in the update process one of which is the nk.nbf (always with that name)
So no matter if the OS is WM5, WM6, cooked or official, a radio only, a splash image only, it is ALWAYS named nk.nbf since it will be looked by that name by the updater application.
hope it was clear enough
cheers

I looked at this, but it extracts .nba files. I need to extract files out of .nbf
So i can start cooking my own ROMs

OK, so i just downloaded typho5 through the ftp, but i dont have the dll file for it. I get error: LoadLibrary p2x587.dll failed
Where can i find the file?
just get it from shelltool.
I found another typho5 and it works. After dumping the files with typho5 which one is the extended rom so i can extract the cab files??

Use my tool (Wizard Service Tool) as it extracts all the files in a nk.nbf without command lines and without any hassle
cheers
Thanx. Worked great. Why doesn't WinImage want to open the .nb files??
Im tryin to extract cab files from faria's Crossbow Reloaded v1.5. After using Wizard Service Tool, I get the 3 .nb files.

Winimage only handles the extension_rom.nb since it is an image of a HDD formatted with FAT16; the other files are encrypted/packed and can only be handled with kitchen tools spread all throughout the forum
cheers
Ok thanx. I'm going to start my search

Extracting nk.nbf

Greetings,
How could i extract nk.nbf from the underground WM6 rom.
Because it is needed for all Cid locked G4 and it will be helpful to everybody.
Can anybody tell me how to? I tried searching it but i didnt find any good answer.
Thanks
I think you can just right click and extract it.
You wont see it unless you are able to view hidden files.
You may have to change it from hidden to read only in order to use the file.
Hope im not spoiling anybody's secret.
Hope this helps you.
if you've downloaded a self-extracting exe you can in most cases just rename it to rar and then open the file. Otherwise just get the nk.nbf from the temp directory that the exe is extracted to...
208 error
do i need a seperate application to get NBD 8.3 to extract to phone keep getting 208 file in use error I am noob but succsefully sim and cid unlocked 8125 and have had severall different ROMs on phone. Flashed back to button love ipl/spl and then flashed TMO 2.26 rom and really want to try NBD's latest and hot new ROM any help greatly appreciated. the info on here made me think I had a grip on flashing until I hit this hurdle
This site and the chef's awsome
If you have been successfully uploading several ROMs before the NBD8.3 with the RUU works in the same way.
Included in the rar file there is also a readme explaining pretty much in detail how to run the RUU to install. Moreover you will also find some explaination on the different error codes.
You may want to download the rar file again and have a second try.
File error
Sorry bout that I was not extracting to a folder and then running the RUU that's how I kept getting the error Thanks for your help
it´s simple download the magic program called wizard service tool (WST) by mestrini, you have a icon named nbf actions, press extract nbf open the rom you want, choose the destiny folder and voilá, you have the nbf file extracted, after you haved to cook then! with all you want S.O. radio ipl or spl..

ROM Building for Treo 750 - Help

I have a question when it comes to using the "htc rom tool" to put together the .nb files into the .nbh file for flashing.
When I extract the official WM6 ATT ROM it get more .nb files than the tool asks for when you select the Treo 750 to build a ROM for. Files such as Ext_ROM.nb, etc. How do I add thoes files in as well?
Also am I correct that the GSM.nb file is the "Radio" ROM? If so, then I should be able to select the updated Radio ROM I got from these forums and have it add that one in as well?
If there are any good guides anyone knows of thoes would be helpful as well.
Thanks.
