How to extract files from a ".nbf" rom file???
please - I need step by step instructions or atleast point me in the right direction!!

NBF?
Hi there did you not perhaps mean .nbh?
If so - see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1100556&postcount=1
Judging by the number of posts you have I presume you are not merely wanting to "extract" it whilst flasing your phone and that you want to extract for development purposes.
If you did in fact mean .nbf a simple Google search revealed the following:

XDA 2s Upgraded to wm 5

Hey all.
For once, I upgraded to wm 5 without any problems, well so I say.
Theres a few things, that I could do with.
When I originally tried upgrading, I copied the cab files etc from the ext rom ( o2's ) and I fancy installing some of the fixes they provide, but each one is called customization tools, so each time i install one, it uninstalls the previous. Any way around this?
Also, the joypad between the green and red phone, when the dialpad is open ( pressing green phone ) I used to be able to press up to view my contacts and down to see my history. Anyway to fix this?
One last, do the developers out there. I developer software for the ppc and windows using .net and cf.net. I would like to access the sdk of the phone it's self, which I know you can use CFNET's own framework to access certain things. But if theres anything else, i'd appreciate a heads up on it?
Kind regards
TIA

hijacking my thread lol
The previous versions were complicated, you had to get device id's etc correct or your phone was useless. So I downgraded back to shipped rom and lost my ext rom auto install feature.
This one, basically backup, unlock your rom, copy a file to the correct folder and run the exe, after that it's some complicated button presses and your in.
A tip! don't set a password when it first asks you. I did this on the last rom, and it locked me out completely. Not sure if its been fixed.

Ive Killed IT

i tried upgrading to wm2005 and it works fine as a pda and for satnav but dosent work as a phone, it will not get anysignal and when it lodsa sometimes in the corner it shows the a redio version other times it willl show just the rom, ive tried upgrading just the radio, ive tried upgrading it all, ive tried returning it to standadrd and it just wont accept anything? ant help anyone? i just want it back to standard.
come one people, 65 views and not one reply? someone must be able to help? i remember when this place used to be helpful.
What operator are you on? All of the recent ROMs do not work on Orange UK. The phone and txt message functionality is broken.
As for not showing the ROM version, this always happens after a crash. Just reset again as soon as you see "NONE".
am a bit lost here.
am on orange UK and evreything works ok with this rom.
just thought i point that out.
opps,thats all rom's since mid november

Before you complain that users cant help you, try helping yourself. You will find that people are more willing to invest their time then!

Wierd, you are the first to come forward to say that it works fine for you. Myself and a couple of other users haven't been able to get reliable telephony for months now. It may be a regional thing, perhaps only in Scotland. I've had replacement phones and I still have problems.
No one seems interested in helping as it's not something that can be easilly tested unless you have the problem yourself.
i was looking for hte downgrade link ill give that a go tomorrow, as tot he person that said i should try helping, how can i help if i dont know anything? we all need to learn and start somewhere. think ill be staying away from here with my spvm600 if thats the attitude this place is takeing.
Hey, it wasn't intended at you, obviously. What I was basically saying was that if you have the same problem, then don't expect a fix as it's a tough one to fix.
could it happen that you are one of those who downloaded the rom which someone had the gall to replace the original one? which rom upgrade did you use?
i cant remmeber what rom it was that i used now as it was about 2 months ago i done it, ive tried the downgrade link that was posted and when i open maupgrade it dosent see any rom on my device or any in the folder and when i click up grade it takes about 10 sconds then says tis done, which is obviously isnt dont, any mroe ideas please people?

use one of the latest (i.e. helmi's or xplode's) and upgrade again. be sure to follow the instructions (including that for device data, and the no/yes/yes input). make sure also you were able to download the whole file (it was a problem for some users).
you might also want to upgrade your radio version (1.15.00).
good luck.

READ IT.
If you dont, you will spend even more time infront of your computer flashing the official ruu before trying again, why waste time, use 1 min to read and understand.
Remember:
If you dont like what I have added, or what I have removed or w/e please dont spam this thread with lame comments.
Disclaimer:
I take NO responsebility if you brick your device, if you do search the forums before you come flaming me/us here at XDA.
IF you brick your phone (Brick=the phone can be used as a building brick, or maybe a paperweight? Because you cant start it up.) Its no others fault but your own.
Mainly the reason for bricking a phone is:
1. Not reading the instructions good enough
2. Not following the instructions.
3. Not having a RUU that can unbrick the phone (the official installer with the official rom for your specific phone, with your phones default language. In.ex if yu have a german phone by default, you need a german RUU, if not you will get invalid vendor error)
4. Not reading the instructions good enough..again
5. Not following the instructions...again
If you dont understand after reading CAREFULLY, then dont bother flash your device with this or any other rom.
I also recommend to use the pagepool changer found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324955
I did nothing to the pagepool, because ppl have different experience with diffrent size on the pagepool, so thats why I leave that up to you
to find the correct pagepool size for your device.
Good luck

Established the aserg policies soft reset. put the phone in flight mode wait and soft reset. And then start the update. every time i do this tho i get this weird message titile ERROR - Uknown Status. First time i got it i acknowledged and that was a mistake as the flashing got screwed up. next time i didn't and the phone seemed to flash. and it was working. Anyways had this error ?

The error is completely normal, do not touch your screen when you see it. Let it sit and see if the installation finishes.
you can check my thread for install instructions as well
Flashing now cross your fingers
Im also uploading a mirror
hmmmmmmmmm.... interesting!
from the description looks like a perfect recipe of apps.
Will try tonight.
Thanks

So far Im going on 20 minutes of install time, its still copying itsutils.dll currently.

or maybe its the settings with the kitchen that is not fit for the wing? hmmmm
Or it could be we both just did something wrong.
I forgot to turn on flight mode before starting, Im about to attempt again.
try to install the enablerapi, and the cert.spcs also, I must confess im not sure what they do, but some have been sucessfull doing that when bricking only using asergspolicies...or maybe they just had luck

totally confused....about JUMP-SPL and HARD-SPL

I have watch videos...read instruction etc, etc, all I could on ATT Tilt/Kaiser flashing...I still don't have a clue. Do I do some type of CID unlock 1st....then is there a Jump SPL and than a Hard SPL. Is any of them two done from the boot loader screen. I can fix most electronics but I don't understand.. no you-tube video...i saw it on flashing the kaiser....sound quality bad for the hard of hearing (me).
Goto http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396922
Download Jump SPL and Run it. Then the hard-spl. This will then allow you to flash the custom ROMs on your Kaiser.
Regards,
Carty..
I just went through this a few days ago trying to flash my first custom rom. I have to agree it is incredibly confusing and contradicting, which is why I'm taking the time to post this. Just read as much as you can about it and don't try to flash the rom until you understand. I am no expert on this by any means, but this is what i did on my tilt to flash HardSPL. I tried to make this as simple as possible just so you see the exact steps I went through, but i highly recommend reading the thread linked in the previous post by Carty above and the other link I'm posting at the very end.
1. download JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354061.
2. get the hardSPL version you need for your rom. I used v3.56 from the link Carty gave you in the post above, because the rom I am using was based on the official att 6.1 rom. You may need a different one for the rom you want to flash I don't know too much about this yet. Leave the folder where you unzipped the hardspl files open on your desktop so you wont have to look for it later.
3. connect your phone to the PC, and transfer JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe over to your phone with activesync. Remove your microsd card if you have one on your phone (very important).
4.run JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe on your phone, it should go to a bootloader mode with the tricolor screen and underneath it will say USB.
5.Unplug the phone from the PC, wait about 5-10 seconds and plug it back in. Activesync should NOT be able to recognize your phone. If it does, something went wrong so start over.
6. Finally you can run the KaiserCustomRUU.exe from the hardSPL folder on your pc desktop and follow the instructions. It will load the HardSPL on your phone.
7. if you want to make sure it loaded, shut down your device and when your are turning it on press both the power and camera button at the same time, it will go into bootloader mode and show you what SPL is on your device. mine says SPL-3.56.Hard after I loaded the hardspl. You are now ready to flash a new rom.
This wiki helped me the most:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading
Read as much of it as you can, especially the "SPL questions?" link, that was the most useful for me.
I hope this helps
All good advice! I just loaded the HardSPL on my phone for the first time and it worked perfectly.
Now all i need is a work connection that doesnt block my attempts to download ROM's!!!!!!

Unfortunately this is the Kaiser forum and you will get even less help here.
Post your questions in the Diamond forum and people will help,when and if they are able. And in the meantime, read and search and try to figure it out for yourself, All the steps and instructions are there.
Sometimes people, unfortunately, mistake this site for the HTC free support line, with 12 techs waiting at their PC's to help. Then they get irritated that no one answers their requests for help on a timely basis . If people won't or can't answer your questions then you need to figure it out on your own.
The bottom line is, if you don't know what you are doing, then you shouldn't be messing around with your phone. Sorry

And what I said was that this was the Kaiser forums and not the Diamond forums. Putting Kaiser Spl's on a Diamond will brick your phone faster than throwing it into a bucket of water. So I gave him a link to the Diamond forum and Diamond Security/CID/Sim unlocker.
How is your question related to the Kaiser forums ?
Will it work on my TP/Excalibur? No as phones have different hardware to which is why h-spl's are device specific.
The best way to help yourself and not get a brick "expensive paperweight" is to head to device subforum and do some reading, as last thing you want is to be creating a thread named "Help"

Since I cannot find anything helpful in Diamond forum, I dig around in other forums to try to rescue my phone and make it usable.
Which is a recipe for diasaster...seriously, if you are gonna do something as stupid as to try to make something SPECIFICALLY for another device work on yours, then you do not deserve to own a Diamond.

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.

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.
