How big is the file, have you tried renaming it to .nbh ?
Which device (x1a / x1i)
What branding,
Have we already got it?

204,913...tried renaming it...no go...for a customized 4gb bundled uk/usa X1i...and its an original not a generic...No I don't think [email protected] it...cause the one's here are the generic versions...

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.

any way to get M700 restored back to original ROM with orange splash screen?
theres a pic of the orange splash screen floating around somewhere, you could make one from that.

extract file from *.nbh ( ROM file )

Is it possible to extract mp3 files from the rom file ruu_signed.nbh?
i think what ur looking for is easy, there are plenty of software out there that could give you that. I remember using Koch nbh by dutty for Hermes but works fine for the Rhodium ONLY to extract files and not to combine.
But the real question is: how can cook an nb file back to nbh file? because I would like to go back to WWE rom, and I thought of extract the nbh file and pulling out the windows.nb then changing it back to nbh but this last piece of the puzzle is not available.
I went little crazy and used dutty's tool to convert nb to nbh and tried it on rhoidum as RHODIMG.NBH then putting it on the SD and going to bootloader. it seems to be stuck on loading all the time without going forward.

Use something like yang to rebuild the ROM image. You won't be able to flash it until Hard SPL is out.
I dunno if this will work on a rhodium or not, but it works great with dumping raphael roms. You can get anything you want out of them. You can also remove stuff or insert stuff and re-cook. Just read the text file for directions; there's nothing to it.

Original ROM? Id like to get it

Hi, i've been testing some ROMs and well, i had a nice experience at trying more than 13 ROMs, really fascinating to see how people can do "miracles" and put my Xperia into a good level.
Bad thing is (its normal) all of them got minor bugs or those things that well, i dont like. I'm just a noob at mobile phones and i dont feel very comfortable when i think my phone got bugs
So as long as SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 has arrived, i'd like to come back to the original ROM for Xperia, but i don't find it :'(... so maybe you could help me
Could you tell me where to find the most updated ORIGINAL rom for my xperia?
Thank you for your understanding !!!

The number after the R relates to software release, 3 being the newest one. i would recommend using R3. Just pick the right one for your location.
One thing to note though, when you download and extract the rom it's got a .image extension, it will need renaming as a .nbh
If you flash using the SD Card method you'll need to rename it as KOVSIMG.nbh.
Hope this helps, good luck.

Another question, now i can download the R3 rom, but im doubting wether i must download a Generic rom or my company's one
i mean:
I am from Spain and i'm with Vodafone, my mobile phone can only be used with vodafone SIM cards, which ROM should i get?
-XPERIA X1 Generic Spain R3AA007 Software Update
-XPERIA X1 Vodafone Spain R3AA013 Software Update
If i can use both, which is better?
Thx !

ty 4 answer ^^ gonna see it !
still my question !
generic or vodafone?
both will work, there will only be minor differences!
but is your xperia branded vodaphone on the battery?
if it is then your proper stock rom would be vodaphone one
if it says x1 i think it should be generic!

when i get battery off from my xperia, and watch what is written in my pda, it says X1
if you mean the black metal case, which must be taken to manually extract battery, it says vodafone
i think u mean this, the vodafone one ^^
ill get vodafone one then ! thx !
BTW i downloaded this, and there's only an image file
only way to do this is via SD? i was used to flash just with an exe and go, coz when i try to flash via SD, i get the message "no image file!" :/

There isn't. As someone above already said, you have to change the file extension from .image to .nbh.
If you want to use SD-card flashing, you have to rename the whole file to kovsimg.nbh and then copy it to your sd-card.
The easiest way to flash is using X1_CustomRUU.exe (use search or look in the stickies to find this). Then connect your xperia to the pc with a USB cable, let it connect to activesync/wmdc and run customruu.exe
If your .nbh file is in the same directory as customruu.exe, it will flash that rom.

Tmobile stock 6.1 rom?

does anyone know where I can find the stock Tmobile Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM
I haven't seen any posted here but Tmobile may be able to help if you flash to their stock 6.5 rom and relock it, just say that you don't like the upgrade and want to go back to 6.1. That is what I would do anyway... But I prefer the custom ROMs personally. Good luck.
thanks, I might have to do that, but the actual problem is that I'm selling the phone on Ebay, and some people are asking for a stock ROM, I found the stock 6.1 ROM and I might just use that.
It was posted in this sub-forum long ago...and has probably sunk way down the thread.
Have you searched for it? cdguider was the thread OP, so that fact might help your search.
I have seen stock roms for other carriers just not Tmobile... I would like to have it as well because sometimes I know I will not have time to mess with my phone alot so I just want a stable quick rom that doesn't drain the battery. Please post a link if you find one.
EDIT: Think I found it... I'll try it out first and post a link if it's right.

OK, it's here -- TMOUS Stock Shipped Rom
Just did a search on cdguider (the OP as I mentioned above) and it was the first hit.
Oh nice! that has everything! thanx so much man
I have it on a CD if anyone can tell me how to rip it.
thats interesting, is a .exe file or do you see the .nbh file anywhere?

Usually, if you have winrar or 7zip, you can open/extract the .exe file and see what's inside...probably the .nbh file, among other things.
Or just run the .exe file from your computer while connected to TP2 via usb-activesync...and see what happens!
yeaa, I usually just run the .exe and it actually extracts the .nbh file to you Windows temp directory and i grab it from there and throw it on the SD card

I've learned about this method after I flashed the original NoDo ROM. And now I can't get pass thru it anymore. I mean, whenever I try to flash other ROMs I'm always stuck with "NO VENDER ID".
Another thing, if ever I get pass thru this, how do I extract the NoDo ROM since its an exe file?
I have the NoDo ROM right now.
I hope I'm making any sense.

The tutorial is great by the way.

And if our device is not from O2?
Should we use a ROM (the 1st from the tutorial) for our device insted of the O2?
Another question: is the RADIO frequence the same for all the region? Like, I have an ASIAN TMOB that I use here in Brazil. If I flash an European ROM, will it still works with my carrier (TIM)?
