Dumping ROMS - P3600 Software Upgrading

How do i dump my trinity rom i was going to follow these instructions for the hermes
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
but i wasnt sure about the number of sectors and things due to the flash partitions being slightly different sizes
I have attached a capture of my pdocread.exe -l command

bringing this in from another thread

good thinking Warny, right i tried it and it appeared to work. I created a 128mb image. The big question is. Has it worked. We need someone to test my image. Or at least tell me how i can check it has worked and how we can create a rom from it.
Oh crap, just realised. Wrong phone. im using my hermes. god damn it.
Well it worked on that. I will try it on my Trinity but i need to go and get a mini sd card now.
Anyway still need the answers to above bits for when i make the trinity image

How about a thread titled 'anybody willing to try this orange rom?' etc

IMPORTANT
it says in that post that YOU CANNOT USE WITH ANOTHER DEVICE. So I guess we are back to sqaure one unless you are willing to test.

I'm sure there are people on this forum that have the knowledge! Its just a matter of attracting the attention! Perhaps we should offer a reward!

I made it... I dumped the ROM of my PTG ROM on P3600.
part00.raw -> 3.199kb
part01.raw -> 2.944kb
part02.raw -> 49.024kb
part03.raw -> 62.464kb
I also dumped the ext_flash
part00_ext_flash.raw -> 10.240kb
I attached a printscreen of contents of P3600.
If anyone needs the 5 parts dumped, let me know I´ll upload it and give link.
Thanks
PS: Now will try the convert to NB* part.

Dumped UK M700 Rom!

I've finally cracked it!
Big thanks to everyone on here
Problem is I'm trying to upload it to the XDA Developers FTP site and I keep getting an access denied message, any ideas why?
And I've not tested the ROM myself yet ... so if anyone wants to test it for me feel free, I've just about got mine working properly with mUns 1.25TE ROM so I'm not sure what to do.
The main reason I dumped it was for someone to work out which files are hidden inside the ROM that Orange have put there for the user agent identification so that you can access all the online gubbins on the Orangeworld website - especially the 3G TV stuff ... ?
Doh! Forgot to say that it is an NBH file at the moment, I'm assuming thats all thats needed ...
I hope this is useable by someone with little to no intelligence. I've been waiting for a UK M700 Orange ROM for yonks. Once it's tested by people braver than me, I can finally have a go with these WM6 ROMS everyone's bashing on about.
BS...

Wow...ive been waiting for this too
Is it uploaded?
Thanks
I suggest you upload it to a different location. If you haven't noticed it all ROM's had to be removed due to Microsoft.
Keep the forum alive and upload it somewhere else! It seems allright to post the URL here tough
uploading site
anyone got a suggestion for the best site to upload the file to? A lot of the files here seem to live on Rapidshare, is that the best one?

I use megaupload.com as it's quick and doesn't seem to come up with the "you have reached your download limit" warnings that rapidshare does to anyone who's connecting through a transparent (ISP) proxy.
Uploaded
The NBH file is ready for downloading from Megaupload -
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MKAVR0SY
I've compressed it into a .7z file as its about the best compression around
Hope it helps both the development of Roms and people who want a backup for a UK M700 ... and I hope I've dumped it correctly!
Yay. Thanks loads
Ok i can confirm that this rom is FUBAR! It does not boot so dont flash it
FUBAR?
I followed all the instructions from the Wiki on how to dump and then reconstruct it, if its failed then I'll try it again as I've got all the parts of the dump on my PC .....
I could just upload the Part02.raw file and let everyone rebuild it themselves? I had trouble with the buildimgfs.exe stage so I used APOCs rom bat files to build the NBH instead
Looks like files I used from APOC seem to mix together the dump directory I made from the M700 with another NBH file I had, which leaves me stuck really as I've used viewimgfs and created a dump directory but buildimgfs refuses to work so I cant get any further in trying another build ... any help muchly appreciated
FUBAR just means Fu**ed up beyond all recognition. And by no means do i mean that as an insult to your rom building. Your doing 100% better than me
After flashing it just hung at the splash screen and took 8 attempts to flash
it back directly from the bootloader (hard spl).
i dont have a clue how to reconstruct a rom so i cant help but probably mun_rus or lvsw could help.
Success part 2
no offence taken
I might have had success now, I think the problems I was having with buildimgfs was because my imgfs_raw.bin was corrupted so I've jsut gone through everything again and its worked exactly as the instructions say so ..... which means that I think I've now made a proper ROM so I'll upload this to megaupload again and let you guys have a bash at it and I'll post the URL shortly
--- URL ---
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CN9VUH60
Fingers crossed this should be a workin ROM now
anyone tried this yet?
Works fine..... Restored my M700 from HTC version back to UK Orange ROM, however the splash screens remain HTC branded.

DO remember,if you are not Hard-spl,your spl ipl is lower than 4.00.0000,Please don't run JUMPSPL or USPL-BETA3 by pof.
Trust me or you will find lots of bricks on street.

Well I tried this and it definitely works. I didn't get any increase in the storage size but the Touch IT nbh was similar to the original nbh so that's probably why. Maybe it's a placebo but I feel the phone is now much more responsive. Great writeup!

Hey, don't be stupid, this is a very good and detailed howto. I think most people didn't try it, because hardspl wasn't released and were afraid of bricking their device... I just installed hardspl and i'm now trying to flash a bit around
So thanks for this good thread

Well, I tried this four five times today with as much as I can understand. Still my devide bricked everytime . Can you please please attach some screenshots to your article!? Actually I am confused about the Rom building part. When you say that using the htcrt.exe tool, the OTHER files except for OS, EXTROM and SPLASH must NOT be modified, do you mean I need to specify the other values (SPL, IPL etc) from the original RUU ROM files? Or do I need to keep them "None" in the tool? All these questions would be easily answered if you can put up some screenshots...
Many thanks!

Discovery? I think I found an easy way to upgrade ROMS

Hey guys, I'm new to this side of the forums. Just bought a Treo 750 and I think I like better than my old Hermes.
Anyways, I didn't have a MicroSD card adapter to format my card, so I did a little bit of risk taking and decided to flash my ROM any way I could (I'm impatient). What I did was take the custom RUU updater from the Patcher/Unlocker and upgraded using that. I'm not sure if this is already posted somewhere, and I didn't see it, but I think its pretty cool and easier than formating an SD card every time you need to upgrade ROMS.
Here is what I did.
Find the ROM I wanted
http://palmone.r3h.net/downloads.palm.com/Treo750_2_23_ROW_EN_DesktopUpdater.zip
Having 7-zip installed, I decompressed the File and found CHEEIMG_FW.nbh
I then renamed that to: CHEEIMG_FW.nbh
I made a new folder and put the RUUWrapper and CHEEIMG_FW.nbh into the same folder.
finally, I just hit all the buttons and checked all the boxes to upgrade my ROM.
Now, I have windows Mobile 6.0 (from 5.0) on my Treo.
I am thinking that I can do this to the Radio also, but I'm a little scared to try it. If anyone is brave to tested and tell me, I'd really appreciate it.
I have attached the RUUWrapper that the Cheetah Patcher/Unlocker comes with. Obviously I didn't really make anything.
If this has already been posted, Just delete this thread...Just trying to bring new in site.
tested now on treo 750v with spanish language
Just work great and have english lang now and win mobile 6!
flash only OS CHEEIMG_FW.nbh
great discovery!
best regards

So is this only updated OS and not the Radio?
Wow, sorry...
What I meant was name the file CheetahPatched.nbh
I don't know if it matters what name it is, aslong as its in the folder it might work.
But, if that doesnt work, just name the rom to CheetahPatched.nbh
I don't know if the Radio Rom will be upgraded as well, but I guess you could be brave and try it.
Since my last post I went ahead and tried it.
Everything went smoothly.
Radio did infact show a newer version 1.54.01.
But,.....
It could just be something I did wrong on my end, but the SW still was 1.13 CNG.
So I went ahead and flashed the Official ATT 2.25, and then it still said 1.13 CNG.
Finally, I flashed the RWE the normal way (editing the payloads.xml) and now everything shows the correct Sw & Fw.
So I may have just had an isolated issue.
If another person comes along and gives your flashing method a run and everything updates correctly, then I will be convinced it was just my isolated issue.
Thanks either way.
Berd
Mine says 1.13ATT...I really don't know much about the Treo Phone, since I moved froma Hermes, so I don't know what that really means lol.
I believe you need to run "UpdInfo.CAB" extracted from the updater version to get the ROM version to read correctly...

I just tried this method to 'downgrade' my radio version. It went through all of the motions, and then ended up not having changed it at all.
Never mind - it was worth a try.
I haven't tried using this method for upgrades of radio though, so it'll be good to find out if it works for that..
Hope it works out for you, if you need a SD card, I think buy.com has a 4 gig for 15 bucks right now, free shipping. that way you can upgrade the normal way.

Xperia Prototype - Need massive amount of help!

Hello!
In my previous post i asked for the best ROM for the X1, ive already downloaded the image file for a ROM called "EnergyROM_KOVSKY_20090805_Standard".
Now i just want to know how to Apply it to the phone.
What do i need to change in the phone before installing the ROM?
Is it even possible to change ROM in a prototype?
I also have problems updating my ROM (when i tried it before)...RUU gives me error code 262.
AS you may notice, im really retarded when it comes to this, but hopefully i will learn sometime.
I will post some device info. Just so you know whats inside the phone.
Rom-Version: 1.02.936.3
Rom-Date: 08/29/08
Radioversion: 1.06.25.29
Protocall version: 52.43.25.24U
CPU: QUALCOMM(R) 7200A
Clock: 528 MHZ
RAM-Size: 256 MB
Flashmemorysize: 512 MB
Database: 32 Bit
StorageSize: 281.58 MB
Bluetooth-Version: 2.0/2.0+EDR
Firmware: R1AA017
And please: Dont redirect me to some multi thread that is named "How to flash your phone) Cause ive already tried it, but i dont understand **** there
If someone would be kind enough to give me a step by step walkthrough on how i do to upgrade just that ROM that ive downloaded. And what other programs i need to be able to fix my phone.
Thanks in advance!
deleted post
You need to check in the bootloader(tri-colored screen) what your spl is... In order to flash a custom rom it will need to say this SPL-0.72.01OliNex....if it does not say this then you need to hardspl the phone...if you follow the instructions it is easy. Once this is done then you will need this....copy the ROM you have downloaded into the CustomRUU folder and execute the file. If this does not work....you will need to format your memory card(Fat32) and follow these instructions, plus there is a video tutorial regarding all the procedures you need....the instructions are as basic as one can get.
Good luck.
Regards,
WC

There's a list of error messages here somewhere. Maybe you can find it here. I think the answer is here. It sais just try again after turning off and turning it back on again
btw, being rude to other users isn't going to help you get your questions answered any faster. Updating roms isn't that hard anymore, but you need to be carefull and know what you're doing. If you don't understand how flashing works and what you need to do for that, you can read the stickies in this rom section. I think it's explained very clearly and step by step lots of times.
edit: looking at all your posts, it seems you've asked the same about three times, and most things kan be found easily by google or the xda forum search. Maybe try a bit harder before asking here?
if you don't like criticism, just ignore my post; everybody has to learn to work with windows mobile, but the only way is to try a lot yourself, search, try some more, search again, then ask and try some of the answers given. Don't get agitated when not everyone is giving you the right answer in clear steps, most of the users are trying to explain as good as they can with the information provided.
the guides are pretty thorough...
if you read them its clear enough...
(assuming you want to use non official Sony roms - you need to flash your hardspl so you wont get errors... (think this is where you're stuck)...
download a hardspl and flash it via activesync)
Then
copy the rom into your sd card root directoy...
rename it to kovsimg.nbh
hit the reboot switch while holding down power and the down vol button to start the update process
this is the easiest way...
but as above, if you want shortcuts for everything and dont read the instuctions clear you MAY END UP BRICKING YOUR PHONE...

I'ts a difference in writing a post with no meaning and a post like you just did.
Example: You start a new thread, no matter what it's about. There are two guys responding.
One guy is giving you this as a answer: Lol, thats kinda noobish that you dont know how to use your phone.
The second guy answers just like you did, you gave me information and links on where and what to search for. But still points out that theres many "obvious" stuff that im asking for.
Big difference.
Back to topic. I've already figured out how to do all, i have all the files that i need.
The problem is that when i try and update the SPL to 1.00.X1 instead of thje other 1.02.Olinex (or what its called) I always get a connetion error 262.
Ive read the links that you gave me before, and it says that you need to either softreset, change usb port or reboot your computer. Guys in another thread gives the same instructions.
Still no success.
So since i've done my searching, done the exact procedure that you should do. And it's still not working. Is that still something just "obvious" to ask for?
And i apologize if i hasn't been clear enough in this thread that the phone im using is a proto. And i still haven't been confirmed by some other proto user that this method is acctually working.
I'm thankfull for all the (helpfull) responses i get. And im trying them all.
If something else comes up i will post it in this thread. No matter if its obvious or not.
Have a nice day everyone!
Looks like there's a connection error when your phone reboots to go into tri-color boot menu.
Google for USB Mass storage device, download the driver and install it and then try again.
Of course you have to find the right driver for your OS.

haha, damn, thats obvious, that i didnt think of that before. hehe, thank you!
Btw, if the phone gets into the tricolor menu, and the progressbar shows up (but still stuck at 0%) can it still be because the driver?
Thanks
if its stuck at 0% it means you're not flashing a compatible rom...
obviously you havent flashed the spl...
flash a OFFICIAL sony rom first... if you still have issues at least you know its either the 'prototype' hardware
or your PC...
which i'd suggest try flashing from another PC...

When in using the custom RUU i get the 262 error.
So i guess the X1_HardSPL application is to change SPL?
If i cant seem to change SPL i wont be able to change rom either. Correct?
Since i have the SPL that was shipped with the phone, can i still upgrade from R1A to R3A without changing SPL?
Have you disabled any of your firewall and anti virus programs when you try using the software?
I previously always had to disable my zonealarm firewall before I could uset he spl software....
Yes I've done.
yes if you have the stock SPL you can upgrade from R1a to R3a with the standard SE update utility.
which can be downloaded at the SE site under support.

The Phone is still a Proto.....
Therefor not accepted by SEUS
Try flashing the official Sony Ericsson ROMs first. No need to Hard-spl for those.
I cant install R3A :S
It says "No image found" bootloader.
And the card is FAT32, and the file is named Kovsimg.nbh
And yes, its placed in the root of the Card.

And if you try to flash via ActiveSync with CustomRUU? That worked most of the times with my X1. Oh wait, that got you the error 262.
In one of your other threads someone says (or you quoted) that one of the advantages of a proto was that there's no security check, which means it might not even be necessary to use HardSPL first.
I've had error 262 a few times; just try to flash again, maybe from another computer if that's possible. You can also try to flash another rom first.
Which roms have you tried flashing? Have you tried with a freshly formatted sd-card smaller than 2 gb (although I think that won't have any effect); you can also try renaming kovsimg.nbh with all small letters, all capitals or the way you just spelled it. It might be important.
offtopic: I get your point on the reactions you get when opening new threads. Everything is simple when you now where to look or if you've done it before, but it can be very hard to find the answer when there's so much info to choose from.
That said: a topic title of something like "having trouble flashig a custom rom to prototype" sounds a bit more serious then "need massive help" with a lot of exclamation marks. That might set people off on the wrong foot.

Task 29 aka MTTY for TD2?

I just performed this task 29 and rom upgrade for a friend and it worked well. I tried it on my phone but its the wrong model id obviously.
I was hoping somebody could make it so that it works on our phones as its a lot easier than performing the MTTY steps
It was in the rom section in the TP2 forum, so i put it in this section. Mods remove it if necessary but i felt this would be the right place for devs to modify it.

try the RUU from attachment and let me know if it worked.
I tried it, and it works.
Not done this before, could you give a brief "How to" please?

Download the attachment, place your ROM's .nbh with it and that's it. Use it as normal.

I thought it might be, but searching didnt bring it up for me at least. So we should make it a sticky as it is in the TP2 forum.

no need to make a sticky, we can add it to Rollup section. i was hoping that as OP you take the responsibility of updating first post with proper info, instructions, credits blah blah, so that it is as useful a thread as in TP2 section.
