Back to 6.1 - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

Hi,
i am currently running a 23081 ROM and i want to go back to the stock WWE 1.19.401.1 wm6.1 ROM.
before flashing i would like to remove the spl, splash and radio from the nbh file. on my older devices i have done this with "Duttys good NBH Tool" and the "NBH Utility". As both utilities are not explicitly designed for the rhodium i don't want to risk using them.
how can i do the removal on rhodium roms?
btw. what is the unknown.nb in the wm6.5 tmo-rom?

ok i have found out that NBHextract.exe from the kitchen mentioned here does the splitting of the nbh file.
htcrt.exe then can be used to make a nbh that only contains the os.nb.
with the abovementioned tools i managed to successfully create a nbh containing only the 1.19.401.1 OS.

Question about Extended ROM cooking

I have succesfully updated my PDA2k from the standard ITalian ROM to the one in my signature
I'm very happy and I would like to thanks All for the support
Now I would like to cook my first Extended ROM and I have a very simple question but, I have not been able to find the answen in the wiki
The Extende ROM I have now doesn't contains the Config.txt file but the Setup.exe.
During the cooking process. Should I take out the .exe file and substitute it with my oun Confing.txt?
Thanks
Asmodeo :twisted:
There is a rason for that.
In some roms that have gone through the kitchen 1.3x we have noticed that the autorun, config.txt has been subsitutted by a new methord setup.exe.

What you need to do is downlaod an old version Ext rom which has the autorun, confix txt.
Extract those files 2 files, delete the setup.exe and add the autorun, config txt to your ext rom (oh yes and dont forget to edit the config.txt)
The one I use is in the imate 1.22 162 and found on wiki

ROM Building for Treo 750 - Help

I have a question when it comes to using the "htc rom tool" to put together the .nb files into the .nbh file for flashing.
When I extract the official WM6 ATT ROM it get more .nb files than the tool asks for when you select the Treo 750 to build a ROM for. Files such as Ext_ROM.nb, etc. How do I add thoes files in as well?
Also am I correct that the GSM.nb file is the "Radio" ROM? If so, then I should be able to select the updated Radio ROM I got from these forums and have it add that one in as well?
If there are any good guides anyone knows of thoes would be helpful as well.
Thanks.

CustomRUU for Shift

Here it is a CustomRUU for the HTC Shift, it is basically the same as the HTC RUU, but packed in one single exe file and slightly patched to perform a 'task 32' instead of a 'task 28' after flashing an NBH, so it will not format your device if you just flash a radio or a Splash screen.
Note: This CustomRUU will not allow you to flash unsigned files unless you have HardSPL installed, it will not push SSPL.
HardSPL and SSPL for the Shift will be released soon by the Shift Project Team, so please be patient
Instructions as always: Drop the NBH file of your choice in the same folder as CustomRUU and start flashing
Recommended tools for handling NBH files:
NBHextract - Extract contents from NBH files
htc rom tool - Repack NBH files from *.nb files
Enjoy
This means that one can now start to build custom roms ?
This means that one can now start to build custom roms ?
I gather that the first Custom ROM would be one where the trick of getting
"liberation of the SnapVue" done has already been performed
nice job pof. will come in handy soon
original RUU package
ok, if someone wants it, here it is (it *is* edited not to hard reset though, just like CustomRUU). also included NBH Util in subfolder in the zip file, with Shift selectable from device list (NBHUtil can both extract and build/rebuild NB/NBH files, so it is very flexible )
Thanks!Finally xda went to live! Also new ROM shift quickly
nice, can someone tell me how to flash a splash screen on the shift? i know how to do it on the tytn and universal.

Including radio into cooked rom

Hi,
a few days ago I have flashed the latest radio on my device. This was 52.57.25.30u. Now I have cooked a new rom and flashed it. I had to realize that my radio was overwritten again (with the old "1.10.25.25").
So, I think the radio is included in the rom image. Is there a way I can include the 52.57.25.30u radio in my rom, so everytime I flash my rom I will have the 52.57.25.30u radio?
Best regards

I assume you mean the 1.09.25.14 stock radio that came with pretty much all HD devices up to this point.
What you need to do is download the Blackstone kitchen and the attached that jcespi2005 posted here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3171703&postcount=94
You need to rename the .nbh file to Ruu_Signed.nbh and place the .nbh file in the BaseROM folder of the kitchen.
Next run BlackStoneKitchen.cmd and choose the option e to extract a ROM.
Next select a. This should then extract all the files you need. The OS.nb is the ROM that you need and the 00_unknown.nb is the radio it should be around 21,000,000kb.
Use the HTCRT.exe to compile the new .nbh that you want. Open the HTCRT.exe in the tools folder of the kitchen. Note: Make sure that you downloaded the updated HTCRT.exe that jcespi2005 posted to compile flashable nbh files.
Select blackstone from the drop down menu. Open the OS.nb file in the HTCRT.exe program and then radio of your choice, in this case 1.09.25.14. Open the 00_unknown.nb with the HTCRT.exe. Build your new .nbh. Note: I always just name the new .nbh to BLACIMG.nbh so you can flash for a microSD card.
Ok, I have tried htcrt already, but not the updated version. Thanks a lot!

I hope it all works out for you. Please let the community know if it works for you!
I have another problem: I have a self-cooked rom (with the "old" radio included). Now I want to put in the "new" radio.
I have extracted the new radio to an nb file (using the kitchen) and have a nb file of my rom. After putting them together with htcrt tool my nbh file is too big (about 20 megabytes), so I think there are now two radios included (the old and the new one).
How can I delete the old one out of my nb file?
If you simple extract your rom with the kitchen and rebuild it, you'll have the same rom without radio inside. Then you can add the new radio.

[Q] Extract Rom - Small carrier

Hi all!
I've done a lot of searching on this topic between here, PPC, Google, and haven't found any definitive answers, so I'm going this route and asking.
I have a CDMA Touch Diamond (DIAM500) on a small regional carrier (Nex-tech Wireless - Google it as I can't post links), that also roams on the Sprint network. I'm wanting to backup the ROM before I flash to something else. With using a small carrier, I'm not confident that a Sprint rom would work, thus wanting to extract what my phone currently uses.
My goal is to end up with a file that I can flash back to. I've already flashed to the HSPL .57 with no problems. I've found a set for the Nex-tech Touch Pro, but I doubt it's fully compatible.
I've also seen the directions here (thread 334680 on these forums) and have extracted the files, but I'm not too sure what to do next.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I'm on the same carrier as kazoni and would also be interested in an answer to this...
you can use the itsme tools to extract the rom bin files.
than U will need a similar base rom to build it back.
extract your base rom.
U will not need a full kitchen as some have sugested.
U will need to identify the xip.bin and imgfs.bin from the device.
use xipport to implant your xip into os.nb.payload
use imgfstonb to implant your imgfs to os.nb.payload.
nbmerge os.nb.payload with os.nb.extra to make os.nb
use an nbh tool to create RUU_signed.nbh from your os.nb and your set.
