Nelson, there is a few month old utility that can extract an HTC ROM from the device directly to the SDcard. If you have the ROM (*.nbh) of your phone from your carrier then you could use a utility such as DogGuys Kitchen maker to decompile the ROM. What you usually only need is contained in the ..OEM\OPERATORS directory.
If you look at how existing kitchens (and a FAQ on kitchens) are set-up, you'll see that each carrier tends to have its own operators OEM that the end-users selects when building their ROM. Following those templates you can create your own with the files specific to your carrier, and add that to an existing kitchen. Once done, then you can then build your own ROM. Though, with that done, of course the language files for your new OS ROM will be english rather than spanish.
The other possible option is to provide your carrier's OS ROM to the forum here and one of us may have the chance to decompile the necessary files and provide a set-up for you.
...sorry, I'm travelling right now and don't have the chance to go into greater detail or updated links.
whoa! I think u went way over his (and my) head with that one...
I don't think he's looking to cook his own rom, he just wants to install one....and wants to know what info he needs to document before so he can reinstall it properly afterwards..
wow thanks Keystone...
although Dillsnik is right... i read the FAQ on kitchens an it doesn´t sound complicated... but i´m not sure if i´m capable of doing this...
however i will be reading more about this kitchens and cooking my own rom because it sounds very interesting that i can put only the programs i want (wich by the way it´s exactly what i´m looking for), so i´ll be witing here soon asking more questions...
by the way, the main propuse of this thread is still open... and the quistion is in the first post:
WHAT DO I HAVE TO BAKCUP FROM THE FILE "EPST" SO I CAN SET IT UP AFTER THE UPGRADE???
thanks for the quick response!!!!
guys, installing the official Sprint rom before your rom of choice allows your carrier settings to be maintained, so there is no need to back up any of that information. at WORST, you'll have to get your a-key reset, which is a quick call to verizon(or your carrier?). i've only had to do this once, and i've flashed my phone probably 25 times.
install olipro 2.4
run Official Sprint RUU
at 'Tap Here to Set Up Your Device' install your rom of choice
run carrier cab (if its not in the kitchen)
if you try to make a call and receive a 'your phone cannot be authenticated' message, call tech support and dont let them tell you anything, just say 'i had to do a hard reset and now my phone cant authenticate i need a new a-key please.' theyll tell you that its not necessary and will try to do it automatically, then if they cant theyll give you a new a-key and tell you how to apply it.
EDIT: there is no way to view your a-key, which is why you are unable to back it up and why backing up EPST settings is pointless for you.

Well, I think Keystone is trying to give you a safeguard. You likely have a ROM that nobody else has a copy of here, and I'd suggest you dump a backup copy of it before you do anything to your device, just in case.

We cant give a definite answer to that because we do not know how your carrier operates.
In theory, the actual Sprint update should backup your programming and restore it for you. I do understand you wanting to have a backup plan, but in that case, I would suggest you record everything.
I dont want a cab or rom or anything like that...
Just someone to locate the FM radio files in his device,save them to his computer...and send them here...It's very simple...u just need a HTC S740 and a PC...nothing else...
If anyone could help I would be realy greatfull.
the files are located in windows folder... it's FMradio.exe...
I'm not asking something so hard...help me please
If you'd write why you want them we'd have a motivation. I don't like helping a stranger without knowing what it's for. You know that, if you deleted them or something, you can do a hard reset (start - all programs - more - accessories - clear storage), and all the programs are there again. By the way, you can't access the Windows Folder with a PC, so it's not something that much easy to ask. HTC doesn't offer quick support in that case, so I feel guilty to help other Rose-owners out and perhaps more than one of you can use the files.
The .zip contains these files:
FMRadio.exe
FMRadio.exe.0407.mui
FMRadio.exe.0409.mui
FMRadio.exe.040C.mui
FMRadio.exe.0410.mui
FMRadio.exe.0415.mui
FMRadio.exe.041F.mui
FMRadio.Ink
I hope I'm doing nothing illegal, delete the post if I do so
€: Dude why did you doublepost that, it's not going any faster, people that are willing to help don't only check one subforum. BTW "I WANT the FM radio files..." dude, you can't dictate us. Also this is not a chat, please write properly next time.
i just love you! let me try them now if u could tell me the exact directory of each file that would be very helpful.
Sorry I didn't mention it earlier...My aim is just to make a radio.cab for the S743 (us version) which has no radio software installed.
I made it work guys.
I have made a new post.

Hi guys
I would like to ask you a question on my Padfone 2.
The terminal was mistakenly brick while I introduced changes to the file build.prop. Now the only way to turn on, is flashing the firmware again (putting the original file from fastboot does't work). I wanted to know how to transfer the firmware zip file to internal memory because the device is not recognized as FTP.
I trust in your competent reply and I ask you kindly to avoid answers like "take to the assistance" because I want to use this option just in extremis.
I'm sorry for my English but I am Italian

Hi, dunno if you still need help with you issue, but if you do try my method. Made a tutorial here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2256977
First please excuse my poor english.
Second of all can you please tell me a way to make 100% copy of the phone OS and everything.
Third of all I am sorry if there is another post like this one, I just failed to find one.
The main reason for this is to be able to access the data without the phone being operational. The phone is dying so I need every bit of info on it meaning that if its possible to be able to emulate the copy. I really need a fast response because i don't know for how long it is going to work.
Thanks for the help if there is any.
I would like to know if there is a way to intercept the inserted passcode to unlock the phone.
What I aim to do is to detect and read the wrong pattern insertions and leave the default behavior for the sucessfull passcode.
The enviroment could be whatever up to the needed restriction, i dont know if is needed a rooted device or not, btw I would also consider LineageOS solutions.
I've read about DeviceAdminService and DevicePolicyController but can find out anything...
Thanks in advance
