RW6815: I need 5 files to come back to original: help! - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development

Hi,
I'm using the Helloworld1 wm6.0 rom version now, but I want to come back to my original rom.
I have tried all the way described:
- via minisd and via pc with the DSUU (OS Only) the phone freeze at boot after downgraded succesfully.
- via pc with the hpRUU patched doesn't work at all: it says that the device is unsupported (tried every version of the patched hpRUU), and I also tried to connect the hp directly in BL mode to the usb, but nothing. (using two different pc with WinXP)
So the only way I have to come back to my original wm5 is to send my ppc to the HP Repair Service... but I cannot do it if I have installed wm6!!
So I have to eliminate every proof of wm6.
I think I must replace every part of the rom:
1. vl1d_pda_Ver.mot
2. EBOOT.nb0
3. ExtendedRom.img
4. nova_pda_033105.mot
5. diskimage_Ver.nb0 (my rom)
I will do it with DSUU.
I already created the diskimage_Ver.nb0 with the Italian one.
Now I need ITALIAN vl1d_pda_Ver.mot, EBOOT.nb0 ExtendedRom.img and nova_pda_033105.mot.
In the official HP's upgrade package I can find theese files:
0.33.00-RW6815-RS-070524N.nbf (5911 KB)
1.12.00_rw6815_diskimage_ITA_sign_0806.nbf (64010 KB) the rom!
nova_pda_256_0119.nbf (109 KB)
and two .dll and the hpRUU exe.
I think that the BL is the same for 6828 and 6815, right?
But the others?
I think:
nova_pda_033105.mot is nova_pda_256_0119.nbf with some bytes cutted: it is the same file in this pre-made archive: PCUpdate2.zip http://www.mediafire.com/?yeg0vjymwts (by Helloworld1)
vl1d_pda_Ver.mot is 0.33.00-RW6815-RS-070524N.nbf with some bytes cutted off (how many?). I tryed to make the filesize equal to the one in the archive, but only the end results the same. So I don't know where is the beginnig and what to cut off. Someone could help me?
I have uploaded the original Italian 0.33.00-RW6815-RS-070524N.nbf here:
http://tinyurl.com/4tfjld
It is a rar archive to avoid corruption.
The original 0.33.00-RW6815-RS-070524N.nbf begins with a header:
Code:
etc etc (cut)
[Ú“2Â,iEå•)ÛÝ*¡v
Ù¥Ö)™Õk:¦6rôš)œ*$
5kÓ¥š¼Òí-Ü$j%Eë‘
ÕšÚò6¢5v%Y*eéÖ•Í!
óÒ$ŽÛEë[B][COLOR="Red"]S705F
FFFFFFFFE.S31501
0000000000A0E100[/COLOR][/B]
etc etc etc
and the vl1d_pda_Ver.mot (the one that comes and works with DSUU) begins with:
Code:
....R060822N_MN1
ARC_RS00052[B][COLOR="Red"]S705F
FFFFFFFFE.S31501
0000000000A0E100[/COLOR][/B]
etc etc
The red code indicates the start of the same content of the two files, but after some other bytes they become different (in content and in size!!), and the end of the files is the same for both.
So, may I have to add the
Code:
....R060822N_MN1
ARC_RS00052
header to my italian one to make it compatible with DSUU? Or is it a hash header? If so, how can I make my one?
But the ExtendedRom.img? Where can I find the original Italian one? Or is it the same for all version?
Or I just need to flash with vl1d_pda_Ver.mot to have the phone like the original? (even if it doesn't go after boot screen....)
Thanks

Yes, I know about it, but my problem is another.. I can't do regular upgrade or use the patched hpRUU (as you can read in my first post)

I really don't know!! I tried everything!
this is a summary:
After flashing my 6815, I tried to reinstall my original ROM but:
1- installing original ROM WWE or in my language (ITA) via MiniSD (128MB) results in a complete installation, but at soft-reset (or hard-reset) my PDA doesn't go after the boot HP blue screen
2- installing the original ROM WWE or ITA via hpRUU patched doesn't function at all because the program (even if it is patched) says that the update is incompatible (as you can see in the image below), and I tested it with WWE and ITA rom

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3- I have founded the script to add header to the original rom in order to use the "Device Software Update Utility.exe" (the one used for the "via PC" method), and it installs the original rom, but after softreset my HP stops at the boot HP blue screen (the same thing happened with the MiniSD method)
4- Then i tried to install NHOCBANME rom, but all versions 2 (2.01, 2.02 and 2.03) don't work anymore for me: after installation (via MiniSD or PC) my HP enters in a continuous boot cycle: it shows the HP blue boot screen and then it resets itself!!!!)
5- The only ROM by NHOCBANME that I can use are: 1.04 and 1.05!!!
Prior to every tests, I have changed my bootloader from 1.0.5 version to 1.0.1 via MiniSD method (by putting just the file eboot.nb0 on the MiniSD in boot mode)
Now I tried to reinstall BootLoader 1.0.5, but the problem doesn't change, so I must install your Update 12: 20080614,b110 rom (or the NHOCBANME rom 1.5) to use my HP!!!
6- Then I found the two exe file to place in windows folder of my hp. I run resettobootloader, it goes in bl mode (version 1.0.1), I plugged the usb cable, run the hpRUU patched but...
"Cannot comunicate with device"
the program wants the hp connected like in ActiveSync mode!
7- So I tried to turn off the usb of activesync through Activesync -> connection settings -> turn usb connection off and run RUU again ...but nothing to do.
every other method (via Software Update Utility or SD) will make my hp to stop booting on the hp blue/white screen!!
So, I want to try to reset all the things in my hp. That's why I'm asking for the vl1d_pda_Ver.mot and ExtendedRom.img files.
If the ExtendedRom.img is the same for all hp, the only missing file to use DSUU is vl1d_pda_Ver.mot: if the size can be different than the one you have created in the archive PCUpdate2.zip http://www.mediafire.com/?yeg0vjymwts and the header can be copyed exactly... then I can try to downgrade with all the original files needed by my hp.
I am sure that there is something wrong in the memory that is not written by the ROM update. So, if the error isn't in the rom itself, it must be in one of the other files
ps: obviously I tried to use my italian rom with the DSUU of the PCUpdate2.zip archive and updated ALL with the files inside. But nothing changed: it keeps blocket at boot screen after the downgrade.

I have just tried to downgrade using 0.33.00-RW6815-RS-070524N.nbf from original italian package with header cutted like vl1d_pda_Ver.mot but the HP does not boot anymore at the end of downgrade.
So I am at the same point of start.
Now I'm reinstalling WM6.1 by helloworld1.
I don't know what to do.

Hi. I want to install the helloworld1 wm6 ROM. I have a rw6815. Originally it had an italian wm5 ROM and I changed it with an english ROM via hpRUU.exe thingie. On helloworld1`s thread he said that in order to uprgade to wm6 you have to downgrade your BootLoader from 1.05 to 1.01 with sp34053.exe. I tried that (PC/USB mode) and i got an error that said something similar to "your device it`s not a rw68xx ..." so i can`t uprgade to wm6 via PC. It`s there a way to downgrade my BL to 1.01? Can i upgrade with a 2 GB card? Thanks in advance guys!

Hi,
just put the eboot.nb0 included in the archive attached to this post in a miniSD card (I use a 128MB card to do upgrade) and reboot in boot-loader mode. I don't know if you can use a 2GB card... it cannot work.
(in italiano: dall'archivio che trovi in questo post, metti il file eboot.nb0 in una mini sd vuota e formattata in fat 16 o 32 (meglio 16) e avvia il palmare in boot-mode: premi i due tasti - e contemporaneamente infili lo stilo nella fessurina per il softreset e la rilasci dopo 2 secondi. Poi aspetti finché il telefono da solo non si riavvia. Ad ogni modo, per favore, evitiamo di parlare d'altro in questo topic, è già complicata la mia situazione..
