The nk.nbf file is located INSIDE the Wizard_MB_1010811_21911 file you downloaded. Instead of just running the Wizard_MB_1010811_21911 program file, use winrar to UNCOMPRESS the contents somewhere onto your computer. After uncompressing the contents into a folder on your computer, you will see the nk.nbf file in the folder you just created. Just copy that nk.nbf file into the shelltool folder and run shelltool. then proceed with instructions to extract OS and Flash it to your device.
you need to extract the files by using a program i use this one zip genius link provided
http://www.zipgenius.it/eng/?page_id=12
once extracted you can find the file you need copy and past that file into the shell tool dir
it will then find it and you will be able to flash your rom
the best rom i have used so far is the wi6ard test rom wm6 you can find here http://rapidshare.com/users/IW25NT along with loads of other roms
looks like we both answered the question at the same time guinness got there 2 minutes earlier
THAAAANKS dear...
many thanx to you easymob and Guinness...
Now i have WM6 and its very nice..
Thanx to you again..
I'm glad we could help! Keep us posted on how it works for you!
I'm a noob with Mobile PC.. so Please explain the "shelltool folder" I have connected my device via activesync and browse the folders and files on my phone.. but I don;t see the shelltool folder..
I have a Cingular 8125 pda cell phine and I would like to update to WM 6. Please help
Thanks in advance!
hi there,
I can see that you have IPL & SPL 2.21.
I have faria WM6 on my G4 device but it showes 2.18.001
And my batery is draining much faster than with MOLSKI 3.0.0. ROM
Is there any solution to it or not.
I have got the Hermes
ipl:1.01 spl:1.06
I have got the olipro's customruu
I have got the WM6 custel rom.
I only want to flash OS.
Steps:
1. put the customruu and nbh(only OS) in the folder
2. Flash the rom using SSPL option
Coz i dont want to change the SPL version, and i think flashing only OS will not brick my device.
Plz confirm this steps.
AND if ill flash the hardsplv7 will i be able to go back to spl 1.06and how? Please tell.
You can return to SPL 1.06 But i wouldnt recommend it, 1.06 is also known as 'the brick maker'. LOL
Seriously flash HardSPL v7 BEFORE you try ANYTHING else.
mrvanx i have read your guide, its awesome.
But if at all i need it for warranty reasons, can i get it back(IPL and SPL).
Thanks
YES, relax dude.
get flashing
Thanks really appreciate your help.
And to say another thing my company (imate) hasn't released any official ROM for my phone, i have checked the wiki there are roms similar from which i can extract the IPL and SPL and OS which i will need maybe in future.
And i have read that to change the IPL and SPL i need to make a .nbh containing only IPL and SPL and flash it using SSPL option of custom ruu, am I right on this.
Thanks
Yes the procedure is:
Split the .nbh (from an imate ROM...or ANY with IPL and SPL that you want)
into the component .nb files using duttys NBH tool (v1.1 i think).
Then rebuild a new .nbh using ONLY the IPL and SPL bits.
Then flash it with customRUU and (yes correct) select the force SSPL option.
Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much i think you have helped me alot.
Thanks again, for being so freindly.
I have upgraded my 838pro to IPL - 1.04, SPL- 2.10 Olipro , Radio 1.43.00.00, OS is Black Majik .
Is it possible to upgrade from officially released wm06 rom from dopod (when its released), will it work, or give me problems.
I am newbie to upgrades. so i dont know technical things like hardspl etc.
Thanks
Pramod Naidu
Yes it is possible, but your SPL will be overwriten..
If you want to keep HardSPL, you need to extract the official SPL from the official ROM so it doesn`t get flashed onto your device

INCORRECT sir.
HardSPL will not allow a retail SPL to flash over it.
The RUU which HTC will no doubt supply it with will probably not detect your device correctly (since you are using a superior SPL hehe).
Copy ther nbh file contained in the update to a folder and use RUUWrapper.exe which will flash it no problem (use autodetect).
One more foolish question
Is my device super CID bec of hardspl, if not, if i make my device super cid, will it give me added benefits.

The only benefit of SuperCID is you can read/write to the ext_rom in windows mobile.....so not really a great benefit.
HardSPL reports itself as SuperCID.....but your device is NOT. Essentially your device is virtually SuperCID.
Thanks
Thanks a lot sir.

When I have gone back from a WM6 ROM to the Official (WM5) AT&T ROM I flashed the older (1.04 I wanna say?) version of HardSPL and it works fine and gets overwritten to the 1.11. Then if I go back to WM6 I just reflash HardSPL v7 and it works fine. I'm not sure if that actually does make it official, but I know based on the startup and bootloader screens, after going to the old HardSPL then using the AT&T Updater, everything says 1.11 and looks the same as it did before I started putting cooked ROMs on my phone.
What if its exe file
how do i extract the nbh from exe file.
How to extract nbh from exe
how do i extract nbh from exe to flash it to hardspl, i dont want to downgrade my spl
Use winrar.
Right click on the file and "open with winrar"
Question?

Hi mrvanx,
Just a quick question regarding your answer to Shamanix...
You said here that all he needs to do is copy the their nbh file in the update and use the RUUWrapper to flash it... Surely he needs to extract only the rom, ext rom, and radio? Then recompile to a nbh file to flash?
The original nbh file is still going to contain the spl & ipl which will cause problems not so?
Sorry if i am butting in here
Regards.

The flash will go ahead as normal but the SPL and IPL will NOT be written over.
Either that or just use the repackaged version of the official WM6 dopod ROM ive posted in the WM6 section.

I just download the latest u1000 27.07.07 WM6 rom upgrade and extract all the files from the NBH and there are 9 different .nb
1. Windows.nb
2. primary splash.nb
3. secondary splash.nb
4. ATHENA_IPL.nb
5. G4IPL.nb
6. ExtendedRom
7. radio.nb
8. SIRFBootLoader
9. SPL
Normally flashing my hermes i would just extract the nbh and just re-build it with the windows.nb so i dont overide OLIPRO hardspl. If i flashed this upgrade will this overide OLIPRO hardspl as I think he mention the SPL he used wasnt bulletproof.
@ rom cookers i just used the romkoch tool to dump the nbh and rebuild it with all the .nbs i.e radio , extended rom, splash screens, windows .nb and it creates the RUU_signed which looks ok without no problems. i think if we can get dutty to be involved or look at his tool i think we can get it to optimised to work with athena as the Athena uses the same similar.nbh format as the hermes.

Base on you signature, it looks like you flashed the ROM that came out late last night early this morning. Are there anything good or bad on the new ROM?

yep, I am curious about the other files myself. I dump the NBH using Dutty's NBH tool (1.1) and created a new NBH with the same tool with just the Extended ROM and the Windows.nb. It looks okay, however I have not flashed it yet.

1) just a question, should be possible to flash the windows.nb from hermes, for example, instead the windows from htc?
2) I know how to extract but not sure about how to put together all the files? can you provide some guidance on what tools use for it and how it works, please?
thanks.

AT THE MOMENT ITS TOO RISKY TO COMPILE AND FLASHED BUT YOU CANT USED A HERMES .NB AND FLASHED TO YOU ATENA AS YOU WILL END UP WITH AN EXPENSIVE BRICK.
you can use duttys good nbh tool to extract contents from .nbh and then compile the rom radio but its not advise even if your device is hardspl as yet. possible soon or at your own risk

Hi!
I'am a noob in this stuff and my english is also not to good
I have to give my TYTN to warranty service. and I have to downgrade my SPL to original version (1.11), because I'm worried that they will not accept my warranty.
Please help me to downgrade to SPL 1.11 from HARD SPL
I've got original HTC rom 2.11 with hard SPL
I've found some instruction:
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=59&Itemid=27
But here is only downgrade to 1.06 or 1.04. Is it possible to downgrade to 1.11?
Thank You very much for Your help!

Yes. It is possible and easy.
Get a copy of the SPL 1.11 and use it instead of the 1.06 or 1.04 mentioned in MrVanx's guides.
Now, assuming that the reason you wrote this is that you do not HAVE a copy of it, then I will tell you how to get it.
Download a full ROM from the wiki LOOK HERE that has many shipped ROMs (including some with SPL1.11 LIKE THIS ONE )
Use WinRAR (or equivalent) to unrar the EXE file of the ROM you just downloaded
You will get an .NBH file and an RUU file.
Use dutty's good nbh tool to decompile the .NBH file.
You will get many .NB files, including one called SPL.NB
Use dutty's good nbh tool to build an .NBH file from the SPL.NB file.
Now you have an SPL1.11 .NBH file that can be used in place of the 1.06 and 1.04 files referenced by MrVanx.
Maybe a request is in order
This seems to be a recurring post. Apparently many folks would like to go back to an older SPL version (likely for warranty reasons). How about somebody build an AT&T or better yet Cingular SPL that came shipped with the 8525s branded by Cingular. Mine ran WM5, but I haven't had any luck finding that ROM online. I suppose the warranty would be covered with WM6, but I would no doubt need the orignal SPL if I want anything covered. So I guess, all we would need is a Wrapper bundled with the .SP file that would restore the orignal SPL. We could load an original AT&T / Cingular ROM, followed by installing the SPL.
That might cut back on some of these posts asking how to...
Well, probably not, but it would be a nice sticky.
Thanks for help.
I've downloaded all the stuff. But the ROM is RUU_Hermes_QTEK_WWE_2.11.255.1_102_6275_1.38.00.10_108_Ship.exe
It's exe file and i dont know how to get Ruu...nbh file.Could You help me?
Another option, assuming you have 2.10 olipro spl now- use mrvanx guide to downgrade to 1.10 oli, then reflash factory rom from htc america site, this will also flash the bootloader to the most current, spl 1.11 worked for me....

Use WinRAR (or equivalent) to unrar the EXE file of the ROM you just downloaded
You will get an .NBH file and an RUU file.
with the new CustomRUU, if you select the "Unsafe SSPL" you can flash any SPL you wish.
