[Q] How to Grab ROM from SEUS while updating the phone?? - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

Hi Guys,
Seeking some help here, cause it must be easy. Surely there must be a way to dump the Stock ROM from the phone? (NOT backup)
I want to either:
- dump the stock ROM (i.e. not backup the ROM or such, just simply dump the stock from the hidden partition), or
- grab a ROM while it is being flashed by SEUS to the X1 (so i can make some updates and then flash that ).
I know I can use Pavel's ROMS here, but the one being flashed to my phone is 161MB, while the same one on Pavel's is 212MB. http://blog.fastgsm.com/sonyericsson/r3a-software-for-sony-ericsson-xperia-x1/
When the phone is being updated, there is a file copied to Program Files\SEUS\db\.. which is the same size as stated in SEUS (161MB), but this has no extension, and all the extensions I've tried (nbh (using kitchen tools tells me it's not valid), zip, rar) don't work. Maybe there's something there??
The tutorials and stickys, while excellent, either require a downloaded ROM already (backing up the ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462926) or don't quite cover what I need.
The question is how??
- SEUS version 2.9.6.12
Cheers...

I am looking for the same thing m8, i want to extract the new SPL 0.78 out of the update. But can't get in the file that's downloaded by seus . Maybe it's downloaded as binary data or encrypted in some kind of way

auto install Rom withe exe-file

Is it possible that someone creates a exe file for a new rom install like the official rom install has? I tried to get it done with hardspl but i only got errors en install didn't work. Guess it's not my cup of tea. If someone could make this i would be verry greatfull. Rom should be light.

if you don't flash HSPL on your phone, you can't also flash the modifided rom with a .exe file. The .exe file is only compressed. the whole flashing is also going by the original HTC rom with ruu
The flashing process is no harder than running an exe once Hard SPL is flashed.
Take your time to go through this tutorial and it should all come together : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514406

1.25.707.1 cl227575 release-keys AND backup

Hello guys, im planning to root and flash my wildfire device for the first time, i already studied and review all related things on hot thing done in wildfire..
now, the only question and seems not posted here..
As i bought my wildfire the stock ROM version is "1.25.707.1 cl227575 release-keys", where can i download this ROM so that incase i got a problems with different custom roms i can revert it back to my original rom version, i cant seems to find it in SHIPPED-ROMs website..
and if there no such thing as that version in the net, is it possible to backup my original ROM?.. (i guess not because i need first the custom loader to have the backup features which will wipe first my original rom before i can backup)..
Thanks!..
as far as i am aware you can use unrevoked to root your phone. this will also install clockworkmod which replaces stock HTC recovery tool. within clockword mod you can make a backup of your current ROM and all apps and settings etc. you dont need a custom ROM to backup your existing ROM. just need your phone to be rooted. which is pretty much a one click process once you have got the windows drivers installed.
not sure about posting external links on forum but google unrevoked and see this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7895908&postcount=127
good luck

Task 29 does not install stock spl by itself
don't start flashing roms until you've read and fully understood all guides...?!
SE update doesn't work with hard-spl installed - which you still have. task29 doesn't change that.
you need to download your stockrom from here and flash it via usb or microsd.
after that's done, you can decide if you want to keep hard-spl or if you want to restore stock-spl, which is needed to use SEUS. (but since you already have stockrom, why bother?)
how to restore stock-spl is explained in the hard-spl thread, end of post #1. follow the instructions there closely, or you will brick your phone! flashing spl requires a special .exe, don't use the one from task29, a custom-rom or whatever!

[ROM/RUU] HTC Wildfire Shipped / Stock ROMs Collection [Complete]

HTC Wildfire Shipped ROM's / RUU Collection
This thread is created to serve as a backup for whatever is available on Shipped ROM's, in case the site is offline. Please read the entire notes below.
Alternate Direct Download Links:
http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Buzz
What are these?
- RUU's stand for ROM Update Utility. They contain the ROM contained on a Stock, Out-of-the-box phone, as it was when it was 'shipped'.
Benefits?
- You will NEED to install these if you are claiming warranty on your phone (IF you have rooted / have custom ROMs installed). Besides, these are also helpful when you may potentially mess up some other rooting / flashing process.
Will this unroot my device?
- Yes. RUU's will Unroot your phone. They will remove:
* Clockworkmod Recovery
* Superuser Binary
Remember though, RUU's WILL format your device completely. So make sure you have everything backed up.
However, RUU's will not remove S-OFF if you have used AlphaRev X / Revolutionary. To remove S-OFF, you will need to follow this procedure here
How to install?
- Simple. Connect your Wildfire to your PC, run the EXE File, that's about it.
But I am on Mac/Linux. EXE's don't work on my comp.
- Extract the ROM.zip from the RUU using OpenRUU. Needs Wine
- Rename to PC49IMG.zip
- Place on your SDCard
- Start phone in bootloader mode. (Vol Down + Power simultaneously). Follow On-Screen instructions next.
Error 131 Customer Error?
- Create a Goldcard. If at first you don't succeed, try again. If you still fail, borrow another SDCard from somewhere and try again. Some SDCards are finicky when it comes to creating Goldcards.
Error 140 Bootloader Error?
- Happens when you are trying to install an older version of a stock ROM on top of a newer version. Run Step 1.bat from here and try again. (Step 1 downgrades your MISC partition which will allow flashing an older ROM on top of a new one)
Error 120/170/130/171.....
- They can happen for n reasons, and the best way to go around it to extract the ROM.zip from the RUU and try to install directly on your phone. For Windows, the procedure is outlined here, and for Mac/Linux, use OpenRUU as already stated above.
There are so many links there how do I know which to choose?
- Generally, RUU's are named as such
RUU_Buzz_<HTC/OPERATOR>_<REGION>_<VERSION>_Radio_<RADIO_VERSION>_release_<RELEASE_CODE>.exe
HTC/Operator - This field will tell you whether it is a branded ROM or it is an unbranded (ie HTC ROM). Examples of branded ROMs are Vodafone ROMs, Telstra ROMs, Orange ROMs etc.
Region - Shows the region for where the RUU is developed for. WWE stands for WORLD WIDE ENGLISH, so choose this in case you don't know which RUU you are supposed to use. Other examples are ARA (Arabic), CHT (Chinese), HK (Hong Kong), Asia (Duh!), TW (Taiwan), SPA (Spain), FRA (France) etc,
Version - While not really important, this field tells you if it is an Eclair ROM or Froyo ROM. Eclair RUU's always begin with 1.x (Examples - 1.37.405.1, 1.14.405.2 etc), and Froyo RUU's always begin with 2.x (Examples - 2.22.405.1, 2.25.720.1 etc)
Radio Version - Irrelevant really. Its not like you have choice here.
Release Version - Same as above.

OTA ZIP's
****************
- These are incremental updates, and not complete ROMs in themselves.
- OTA Zips will only work on the base ROM they are designed for, so, are not universal. Check the File Name of the OTA Zip. As an Example - OTA_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.37.405.1-1.25.405.1_R2_release1ey1wsiqy49sdrqx.zip. Here, thos OTA ZIP will install HTC Firmware version 1.37.405.1 (1st Number) on your device, but will only work if you have HTC Firmware version 1.25.405.1 (2nd Number) on your device already.
- To install OTA's, follow the steps given below: (Untested on devices which have Clockworkmod Recovery installed)
- Download the OTA file you need. Rename this file to update.zip
- Place this on your SDCard
- Turn off your phone and turn on in HBOOT mode (Vol Down + Power)
- Select RECOVERY. You should see a Red Triangle with an Exclamation Mark since using an RUU removes Clockworkmod Recovery
- On this screen, Press Vol Up + Power. This should take you to Stock HTC recovery.
- Here, select "Apply SD:Update.zip". Follow On Screen instructions

Nope, it isn't safe flash zip.
It is an official froyo ota update which is to be flashed from stock recovery.
Edit: Incase if ur question is "IS IT SAFE TO FLASH ?".
YES, ofcourse. Stock HTC updates are well protected with their signatures. But it is useful only if u r on android 2.1 and want to upgrade to 2.2

Updated the post with all available RUU's (OTA Zips later). Since Rapidshare was proving to be much faster, I have used that for the time being, but I'll definitely be uploading to a site like Multiupload soon.

Looks like Shipped roms could be back up and working again
If needed, this is the official (unsafe, will put hboot 1.02.00) Froyo update for italian fastweb Wildfires:

Unsafe ZIP full RUU
Hallo,
I would like to use the latest, full, clear and not safe ZIP to flash my WF. And, it has to work in Germany. The latest Italien one, is it a full Ruu or only an update? It has only 60MB which seems to me a little bit to slow - but maybe I am wrong.
I have a mac and I can't use the exe files.
Thanks!

OTA ZIPs are just updates They are not full RUUs. Use OpenRUU to extract the ROM.zip from EXE files on your Mac.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711298
Then rename the extracted rom.zip to PC49IMG.zip and restart the phone in bootloader (Hboot) mode.
Any way to remove the bootsound?

I am currently visiting Australia. Using a Wildfire with Wildpuzzle 2.2.1 on it.
I know this isn't a telstra phone, but a A3388 (from memory).
Which ROM would be best to install, and if once installed, would I still be able to root the device again, put clock work on it, and install a ROM down the track?
I'm just finding things a bit vague... Like what does WWE mean? and all other acronyms used on the ROM file names?
Thanks very much!

Depends how long your in Australia for. I'd say wildpuzzle should be ok. You could use a safe flash zip. And keep your zip.

Mac, Wine and Ruu
Hi, it does not really work. Reading the post of all the other members, it seems to be the wrong way to extract the rom.
And, a really good instructions i could't find how to use the scripts - now where I have Wine on my mac.
Is it possible to some one how know how to and have the possibility to extract the later rom and post it here? I would like to install and fresh and not safe RUU on my Wildfire.
Thanks!

[Q] Help needed on upgrading firmware on Xperia TX after downgraded & rooted

Hi everyone, I need help over here as I'm stuck in the process of rooting & upgrading my Xperia TX (LT29i).
I have successfully downgraded the firmware & rooted it. However, I can't seem to find a stock ROM for Xperia TX (LT29i) 7.0.A.3.197 firmware. I just gone through all the hard ways to create a stock ROM myself & successfully flashed it. Perhaps bcuz of the improper build, my WiFi can't be turned on & there might be other problems coming up later.
Now I am also worrying that would it cause any prob to my phone. I followed this guide to create the ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1931189
& I took the META-INF folder from this custom ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2040989
Plz kindly help that if there's any resource to the stock ROM or any way to fix this, as well as have a look if there is any side effect from flashing that ROM. Many thanks! ><
You could try the repair phone option in SUS, with will reflash the stock firmware on your phone
One way to fix your problem is to copy /system/lib/modules/prima/prima_wlan.ko to /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko. An issue that I found with this solution, though, is the MAC address I got after copying the .ko file is different from what it was in stock. I can't figure out why. But regardless, your wireless LAN should work after you copy the file.

Thx, I'm aware of this option. It's just that I want to know if what I did would create any prob to my phone in future, as well as if there's any stock ROM available on the forum. =)

Alright, will try. Thx. =) Do I've to keep the original file at the original location? Btw, is the way I'm building a ROM a proper way to do it? Do u know is there any ready-built stock ROM available?
Look in the very first thread of this section to find an index of every ROM and ftf

Links to stock ROM FTFs are available in gregbradley's FAQ here under FTFs. You will need Flashtool to flash these to your phone.
Available stock-based TX ROMs are gregbradley's Assaye and travis82's 240 DPI stock ROM. I haven't tried either since I'm just fiddling about on my own, so I can't tell you how well those work, but Assaye is a good reference if you're trying to build your own stock-based ROM.

I didn't do anything else except copy the file, so the original prima_wlan.ko is where I found it on my ROM.
Also, I've been watching this thread on similar problems with the Xperia V and a solution has been found. I'm planning on trying it out on my TX some time this week to see if it will solve my MAC address woes.
Btw, is the way I'm building a ROM a proper way to do it?

The thread you linked to are instructions on building ROMs for older Xperia phones. Steps 1 - 4 don't need to change for our phones, but the TX uses a different partition scheme (or something), and this means step 5 needs to be different since our system.sin's contents are actually in ext4 format, not YAFFS. A typical Windows installation will not be able to handle the file contents. You can use mounting utilities to read the file and copy them over to your Windows hard drive, but all symbolic file links will basically be destroyed.
Currently, I'm using dsixda's Android Kitchen to build my own stock-based ROM. It's really just a collection of utilities that allows me to make all the necessary file changes and edits that I want before generating a ROM .zip file that can be flashed in CWM. This really needs Linux to work, which is a plus because the file system used by Linux is usually ext4 by default, making it easy to work with the contents of the decrypted system.sin.
If you're planning to build a simple custom ROM, I suggest you read up on how to use dsixda's Kitchen, but keep the following in mind:
- the Kitchen works with a system.img file, which is really just the system.ext4 you get from decrypting system.sin
- the Kitchen will complain about not having a boot.img to work with. Ignore it; I don't think you're building a ROM with a custom kernel, so you don't have to worry about it.
- the default contents of META-INF that the Kitchen generates does not work with CWM for locked bootloaders on the TX. I don't think it works with unlocked bootloaders either. The solution is to stea-... err, borrow the update binary and updater-script from a working ROM zip and edit it for use on yours.
Also, read gregbradley's Assaye ROM thread and TiMiN8R's stock and deodexed ROM thread. They are using dsixda's Kitchen as well, and you can learn a lot about fiddling with stock ROMs from reading about the problems they encountered and how they fixed them.
