Hi I lost USB connection with my Blackstone and I can’t flash any ROMs or install HSPL so I can flash from SD card. I try the forum is there any way to hard SPL from SD card or is there any solution to fix USB connection problem? (which after searching the forum I found out there isn’t) so only solution remains send it to repair. But I have a cooked ROM with stock SPL installed; please someone can convert my stock ROM into nbh format so I can flash it from the SD card or teach me how to from stock exe file into nbh remember I can’t dump the rom.
Please help thank a lot.
You can extract the ruu_signed.nbh out of the shipped exe.
You don't need to dump any rom!
Just open the stok/shipped rom with winrar: click with right button on shipped rom and choose open with winrar.
When winrar is open you just estract the ruu_signed.nbh file where you want and rename it into BLACIMG.nhb, put into your sd card and flash!
PS. sd card is must formated into Fat32 to perform flash!
Thanks to your quick response i will try it right away. thanks again
I let you guys know what happen
Thanks a million for your help yes I able to install stock rom back from a SD card know i can send it for repair.
Thank you very much I really appreciate you help

Just make sure the nbh file is in the same folder as the RUU exe and it will pick it up when you run the RUU.
sorry,my english is so fool

Hi all.
I have dl an tried the touch experience rom for x1.
It was ok, but i would like to go back to the orginal danish/(Ore english) xperia rom.
I have tried to dl from se's site, but it keeps failing the installation.
Also if i try the "microsd" method with the kovsig image it says "No image file" at the bootloader.
What can i do?

rename the .image part to .nbh so it looks like Kovsimg.nbh and it will flash okay and if it still doesnt flash correctly format your microsd card to FAT32
done*.................
I have dont that, but when i come up in bootloader it says "no image file".

Run the program first to extract the rom.
Once extracted rename it to "Kovsimg.nbh"
Format your microSD card to FAT32 format and copy the "Kovsimg.nbh" onto it, also make sure you have put Kosvimg.nbh with the V and S the wrong way round
I'm using the x1a (n.america) and i figured in order to make a backup of my firmware i would need the NAM (canada) stock rom instead of the UK one. (correct me if i'm wrong plz). And so i found this stock rom on this site, the exact one, even my provider's name was on it, and i downloaded it but it just came as an exe file and when i run it it just extracts/installs an image file (215mb) in a folder specified by me. In the tutorials it says that i need to put the RUU_signed.nbh from the stock rom in the kovsky folder... but i don't see that file anywhere, is it the same thing as the image file installed by the exe file? Do I just rename it and proceed??? PLZ answer this if you can because i have everything else prepared to flash my phone but this is the only thing holding me back...
Yes, if you're using the RUU method rename it to RUU_Signed.nbh if you're using the SDCard method rename it to kovsimg.nbh.

You need to extract the RUU_signed bit from the image i am having the same issue and i write software for a living. Are you following the tutorial on how to back up your rom?
video guides
Im actually following BioVolt's video guides which I think u can find on this site if u search biovolt's video tutorials? they're really good and detailed but they're kinda long.
The exe contains a .img file, just rename that to kovsimg.nbh, and copy to the root directory of your memory card, and flash it.

it's not for flashing it is for doing a ROM dump in all the tutorials it does'nt tell you what clearly to do with the stock ROM once downloaded. But now i know along the same lines as your idea It just needs renaming to RUU_Signed.nbh then place this in the same folder as the 4 files you have allready extracted.
I have watched biovaults vids good but a little long for me.
I am in the same situation, and I'm totally new to flashing/backing up Rom's.
I'm also following BioVolt's Videoguides to start with but can't get hold of the Stock UK Rom.
Since I purchased my phone in sweden, unbranded I perfer to use swedish stock roms (If this even matters anyway?!).
So just to get everything straight, can I just download "Generic Sweden R3AA009 Software Update" from the sticky here in the forum, extract and rename the .image file to "RUU_Signed.nbh" and use this when I'm dumping my rom or did I totally missunderstand you guys?
Thanks in advance and sorry if I'm just way off with this question.

The reason we use uk roms is cos they they are WWE(world wide english) and the kitchen needs this to dump the rom.
the one you end up with will be an exact copy of your stock rom.
Yes just rename the uk one
Allright, thanks alot! Really helped me out.

It's a little OT but my X1 doesn't find the kovsimg.nbh file in the storage card anymore. Why is that? I've flashed using this method for months!

Uhm, I'm not sure really.. But ensure that you put the "Kovsimg.nbh" in the root of the storage card, not in any other folder. Might be a stupid answer but you might have missed this lil' thing.
Good Luck, Anton.

Checked that...could it be a matter of storage card hardware? I had few problems writing on it through the card reader.

Might be, but you still should find the file if you successfully transefered it to the storage card...
Just to be sure, you haven't reformatted your storage card recently? It has to be in the "FAT_32" format to be flashable..
Can't really think of much else that gives you these problems..
So even if I'm using the X1a i should dump my rom with the STOCKUK rom? I read somewhere that if i flash my stock rom back on my xperia after it's been dumped using StockUK rom then my phone won't be able to connect on 3G etc.? Is there any truth to that, because im finding it impossible to dump my stock software using the NAM stock rom, kovskykitchen tells me that it cannot extract the ruu_signed.nbh

It must be uk ROM due to it being the only one that is guarenteed WWE the kicthen won't recognise anything else and when you flash back it will be whatever stock rom you currently have.

rename it to .nbh and flash it like the others, with SD-Flash or RUU...
Just read sticky topics.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446070
You don't need to create two separate topics, it just uses up space unnecessarily.
Also, if you were to read the stickies in the forum there is one there which contains all of the original ROMs including R3A. You can download the one you want and install it in the same way you did a custom ROM.
Change the name of the file (EXAMPLE: APP_SW_X1i_GENERIC_UK_CDF1215-1832_KOV_R3AA010.image) for:
(1) kovsimg.nbh if your are going to update the rom with de SD method.
(2) ruu_signed.nbh if you are going to update the rom with your PC by the CustomRUU method.

But if you don't see the files with ***.image , go to Tools -> Folder options -> view
and un-select "Hide extensions for known files types" in your Windows Explorer.
