I am looking for a program or something to extract the contents of a .cab file and then something that can rebuild the .cab file when I'm done. Are there any programs that are free that can do this?
Thanks.
7-Zip to extract and MS' command-line cabarc to create a cab...
Google for them...
For building cabs use quickcab, it's made by one of the users on this forum and it just got a great makeover. I don't know about extracting it with 7-zip, but you can't use WinRAR since you can't get the original files that way. I would highly recommend MSCEInf (free) which allows you to look insede the cab and extract the files, 12
WinCE Cab Manager is a good but $ costly $ alternative.

Pricey is right...

CE applications, WinCE CAB Manager has been designed from the ground up for
maximum flexibility and ease of use.

Yes it is pricey. Let me tell you from a chefs point of view that it is worth every single penny. The new 3.0 is amazing. Nothing else out there has the power and ease of use.

Himalaya Kitchen recook any HIMA ROM you like
I built a rom recooker, Well "2"
One for Himalaya, and one for Blue Angel "yes" BA That I'll B' on BA forum "Bye"
I have tested on both my BA,s and my HIMA bless IT, " been flashed some 50 or 60 times" both recooker's cook good rom's first time,
About the recooker's
A basic, Cooking from dump folder, it's all manual editing ! early wm5 style, Cooks WM 5.0 ' 6.0' 6.1 ROMs just like Ather90s kitchens it all runs from a single start.bat file, That has help text at every step' A walk through some TIPs, Comes with all required tools 'reg workshop' and 'HEX editors' that launch automaticaly at every step, File loaded and open ready to edit, Used tools and files are Backed UP and cleaned up at every step, keeping things nice and tidy, Full menu driven options, Once kitchen has been built to completion the kitchen will be ready !! And NOW ! You'll be making a coffee while the test rom flashes to your phone, 2 and milky for ME pls.
You can Make a COFFEE start this tool decompile your favorite ROM, Change "Say" desktop and splash screen's, of the Rom build and be flashing to your PHONE and your coffee's STILL too hot to Drink It's that simple
You can do moor advanced cooking than that i'm "no" programer and after reading about OEM_packages apply a bit of common sence ! your "COOKING"
I'v got HTC' calc, dialer, WMP, comm,s manager HTC today_*.TSK onscreen keyboard skin all cooked in now in the colors i want ! It took one evening for the BA, A bit of reading about editing ,*rgu ,*.reg and initflashfiles.dat the initflashfiles.dat is were you customize your program folders and move files to different folders Ie: WMP Skins need installing into wmp?? folder Download A WMP_oem and study IT u'll see
1 hr for the hima,
Please NOTE the test build is also part of the kitchen Setup process It takes 15 to 20 mins and if you do it "my way" it will work FIRST TIME Then you know your rom cooker works
Enjoy
Swampy395
Install reg editor first. Then "read" !! ReadMe First.txt in Kitchen_HIMA_0.1.0 folder Put in root of drive ie: c:\Kitchen_HIMA_0.1.0 for best results DO not rename any part or folders of this kitchen ! you can make your own Folders but not in the "dump" enjoy
P.S. If you don't see my custom images "set" windows default for today screen that should do it
Kitchen upgrade some new tools and help files added it shows more files than the old one, There are some files that are still hidden
don't unhide them or your rom won't work !
If you want to see the changes you will have to reset your kitchen (1) enter then (R) uppercase R enter this will delete any work you have !!

Guys this will let you edit any hima rom WM5.0--WM6.0--WM6.1--WM6.5
It's "NOT" a porting kitchen,
Only for editing rom's you can change many things with it, But the OS_build will allways be the same as when you started

hello swampy..

Hey everyone,
I am having a hard time finding information on compiling a bunch of icons in ico format into one dll file to use as an icon library in my rom. I pretty much want to configure one like the shell32.dll file in a windows directory. Anybody have a program or anything to do this? Could I just copy the shellres32.dll file and replace the images I dont want with new ones and re-save with reshack and sign with a ms signer? Thanks.
Mods...Should this be in ROM Development as this is in regards to my ROM? If so could you please move it, thanks.
What Icons are you trying to change????
Microangelo Toolset will do it...it's what I've used for my Tilt.
It's not the most straightforward program, but it works well for compiling icons into a .dll.
edit: post here if you have trouble using the program...
Changing just about all of them.
Thanks, will let you know if I run into any problems.
Hello ROM chef masters,
I would like to add the panel manager and some selected panels to jerpelea's 6.5 21500 kitchen. I am having problems with the ActiveX Flash Deployment cab. As I understand, this cab contains registered DLLs. How do I specify that in the kitchen in order to correctly install the package. I used cab2pkg.exe to convert it to a package, but it does not seems to be right.
thanks in advance for the help
Afaik you can put the cab together with the dsm file in an OEM folder... so it installs itself after rom flash... (correct me if I'm wrong...)

Thanks for the help. I need the detail of how to put the cab and .dsm file. Searched and there isn't much details
resolved by modifying the config.txt so the cab will automatically install during customization phase. This is not optimal though, it uses double the ROM space. I wonder if there is any other better way...
hi, i think there's a package creator in the tools folder in jerpelea's kitchen (wm6.1 or wm6.5), i'm using that tool to convert my cabs to oem. maybe you can try that one.

I have tried package creator 5.4, it doesn't help. this cab is self registered, meaning that the registries are created by COM interface, not by the cab installation. The package creator or cab2pkg therefore can not find any registry in the _setup.xml file
I see a lot of requests here about rebuilding dumped ROM's.
With the help of !Aman! I created a small tool that should make it easier!
See the the WIKI HTC Topaz - How to rebuild a dumped ROM for an explanation and use the attached package which has all the tools you need and a batch file to do the job for you.
Extension:
If you have an extracted RadioROM as nbh file or want to add a specific Radio ROM to your rebuilded ROM, but the Radio.nbh file into the folder BaseROM and it will be automatically added.
i guess you can also upload the template os.nb.payload required. it will make the job easier.

Good idea. Will change the package and test it.
Becomes clearer with it and more rebuildable !!
Thank you for the hard work.
You make backing up possible for all noobs like me
Hi there, can this utility transfer the os-new.nb into ruu_signed.nbh ? If yes, how. Thanks.

it is not made for this. To do this you need a tool like nbhutil to do it.
