Downgrading from WM2003SE

Hi,
I recently upgraded to WM2003SE, this introduced some errors om my Q-Tek 2020 which is why i want to downgrade to the original image.
I downloaded 'HI_TMNL_17200_190_11700_Ship.exe' from the T-Mobile (NL) site, but when trying to execute it it shows "Country ID error" and stops.
I searched the forum and found a post the said i could use the no_id patch. After reading the instructions i found out that this patch needs the extracted files, but i only have the .exe i downloaded.
Can someone give me some advice?
Cheers,
-peter
Run the .exe file and press next ONCE. (this extracts the files)
open file explorer on your pc and navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR NAME\Local Settings\Temp
in this directory there should be a temp directory (mine was called pftA4.tmp)
the ROM images are located in this directory.
once you cancel the .exe program the files are deleted, so copy them to a new directory to save them.
Good luck.
Thanks, i managed to get the files!
I've been reading a lot on the forum lately, and in particular this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12101
When trying to get the xor keys with the command 'xda2nbftool.exe -t' it only shows the xor keys for "ms_.nbf" and "Radio_.nbf".
I'm missing they key for "nk.nbf" while the file does exist and is in the current directory.
I tried this command on two rom's and both did not gave me the nk.nbf xor key.
G:\peter\Officele T-Mobile image>xda2nbftool.exe -t
xda2nbftool -x ms_.nbf ms_.nba 0x20040305
xda2nbftool -x Radio_.nbf Radio_.nba 0x20040306
Another "push" in the right direction would be appriciated
-P
search the ftp
i do beleave that god toenailed has already decompressed that files
check in the ftp
Thanks rictec, but i looked all over the ftp today but didnt find it.
Nevertheless, the xda2nbftool.exe should be able to decompress my files right? Do you know why i'm not getting a xor key for that file (nk.nbf)?
Cheers,
-P
Could anyone please help me out?
I'm still in the dark about why i can't get the key from the nk.nbf file using xda2nfbtool.exe
Help would really be appriciated!

Editing Atom Life Pagepool - HowTo at post #8

After months of learning and digging deep inside the Atom Life, I think now it's time for a newer Rombuild.
Cooking the imgfs is not the problem, but I didn't understand the XIP from Atom Life.
We have 2 XIP parts, compressed in SRPX format.
Grabbing them is no problem with Scoter Kitchen Tool MSFLSHTOOL.exe.
The kitchen contains 2 tools to change from SRPX to XIP and reverse.
As I described in the Atom Life Kitchen thread, repacking the XIP.bin to SRPX causes a smaler file than the source file.
The cooked OS doesn't boot.
That's the first big problem.
The second one are the two XIP sections. The first one is bigger and contains some files, the second one didn't has.
But some files are existing in both sections with different sizes.
So cooking the Atom Life XIP seems more complicated than in other devices.
Here are the 2 XIP sections. Hope someone has an Idea, how we can work with these files:
http://rapidshare.com/files/79622471/LifeXIP.rar.html
Edit:
The first problem is solved. I have compared the original XIP part with the new one in a hexeditor.
I've simply hexedited the beginning and filled the end of the new file with FF to match the needed filesize.
After comparing both, now the new file is identical.
Maybe later, we can use the space of 300kb to encrease the memory of Atom Life .
I wonder, where all the ROM-Cookers for Atom Life devices are hidden.
Another positive aspect is, now we can change the Pagepool of the Atom Life.
After changing the PP from 8MB to 4 MB, my device has a total Program memory of 52.41 MB. After a fresh setup and some tweaking with SKTools, I have, after a softreset more than 29 MB free Programmemory.
I know someone who can handle these files,and he has cooked a 18538 rom for atom life,here is the link:http://www.pdaclan.com/forum-7-1.html, btw,can you tell how to change pageing pool of life?Thanks and sorry for my poor english,hope you can understand what i mean

Thank you for the hint.
As I can see (or guess, because I can't chinese) there are some ROMs for Atom Life. Even some Pagepool changed.
You can change pagepool only, if you extraxt the XIP, edit it and cook the new ROM and flash it.
But if there are already some ROMs, there is no need to explain, just download the OS of your choise.
I wonder, why nobody of the Rom cooker offers his work for english speaking people ?
As I can't read chinese, please can you or someone else post download links to the Atom Life ROMs of this site ?
Thank you
I want to help you,First,you should log in,use account:qq108108 password:aaaaaaaa,when you log in,simply chick the post,you will see the download link, you would not miss it!I have a problem:when I use Atom Life Simplified Kitchen - Sdh, I got a wrong message:The output sign-buffer is to smal for encrypted signs.Encryption from Unicode (UTF-8) in dodgeposition System.Text.DecoderReplacementFalback."

Thank you for helping
That's the same problem, I have with my german XDA Comet ROM.
Unfortunatly I have no idea to fix it.
If I find further solutions, I 'll post it.
The Atom Life WWE ROM runns fine with the kitchen. So I'll use this ROM .
I will take o look at pdaclan. Maybe google translation gives me more informations.
Bye
So can you just tell me how to change the pp please?Thank you!!
Of course
Hope I can explain it that everybody can understand. Because it's hard for me to explain thinks in a foreign language.
1. You need an original Atom Life FLASH.dio
2. remove the 12 bytes header with a hexeditor and rename the file to AL1.dio (you don't need these step, if your file is already prepared for MiniSD card flashing. Only for original ROMs from official Updates)
3. download Scoter Romkitchen.
http://rapidshare.com/files/15460590/Scoter_Kitchen_1.0.exe.html
or http://www.megashare.com/107480
4. You need the SRPX tools from this kitchen.
5. put the ROM in the SRPX folder
6. in commandline change in SRPX folder and type:
Code:
msflshtool AL1.dio -d -p 1
7. You'll get a new file called AL1.dio.part1
8. Now type:
Code:
SRPX2XIP AL1.dio.part1 xip.bin
this will produce xip.bin
The SRPX compressed XIP will be changed in the regular XIP format.
9. Locate the following hexstring with an hexeditor:
Code:
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF9B4FFFFF64B00000
One line below, you will see:
Code:
00008000
That's the actual pagepool from 8 MB
10. change the value to:
Code:
00004000
or an other prefered pagepoolsize. Save the file first.
11. Now the tricky part, I don't know an easier way yet.
12. type:
Code:
XIP2SRPX xip.bin
You will get a new file called: xip.bin.xiporg
13. As you can see the new file is much smaller than the original one part1.
So you must fix it with the hexeditor. You must compare the original file with the new one.
14. the beginning of the new file should look like the original one, so you must edit the values in the new one till the word SRPX.
After I take a learning lesson by my "teacher" ferryboat, I found out that steps 15 - 17 are not neccessary !! Jump to 18.
(Will edit the howto, after further compare)
15. the old file is bigger and the end is filled with the value FF.
16. just copy the FF -block and paste it to the end of the new one. Save it.
17. Compare if the new file has the same size like the old one.
18. type
Code:
msflshtool AL1.dio -r xip.bin.xiporg -p 1
19. the new file will be written in the AL1.dio ROM image.
20. put the image to the MiniSD . Bring the Atom Life in bootloader-mode and flash it.
Done and ready
You can test several pagepool sizes.

Thank you!!!Now I have download the new 18538 rom,BUT the Programmemory only have 22MB free,So I need to do something to make it larger.Thanks for you great work!!If you need any help,just tell me!!!And pdaclan have a new rom kitchen for atom life too.
After reading your stuff,It seem that a little bit diffcult for me to understand,But since you explain so well,I think i can make it happen!!

You need only to copy and paste the quoted commands in commandline.
The whole procedure needs only about 10 minutest from editing the ROM till to the ready flashed device.
Even the hexeditor is included in Scoter Kitchen, so you have all tools that you need.
The hexeditor in Scoter Kitchen called XVI32. For editing, just open it twice and load the original SRPX.part1 in one and the edited in the other opened instance.
At the beginning of the file, you will see the difference. Only edit the values that are different, till the text "SRPX" (you'll see it).
To copy the "FF" block, just go to the end of the edited file, you'll see where the file ends.
At the original file, there is the beginning of the "FF" block.
Go to first "FF" value,
press CTRL+B , goto the last "FF" value, press CTRL+B again, you will see the block red marked.
Go to "copy to clipboard" button and push.
Now go to the end of the new file and press the "paste from clipboard" button and save.
Hope that some of the new ROMS, tools and knowledge from PDAClan find the way to XDA-Developers, because that'll be bring "life" in the Atom Life comunity.
Thank you for YOUR help.
I hope so,The one who made the 18538 atom life rom had ask you question before.If I meet him ,I will tell him to come here and teach both of us the method to port the xip!!
Done!!Thanks for your tutor!!
I don't understand what it's mean:"cut the 12 bytes header with a hexeditor and rename it to AL1.dio". Could you please explain it more? I'm a new with Atom Life. Thank so much Mr. scorpio16v.

Sorry, but if you don't know what an hexeditor is and how you should use it and you even can't simply rename a file, it's not the right thing for you to do these job.
Sorry, I tried to make everything you told, rename Flash.dio to AL1.dio and put AL1.dio into SRPX tools folder, then run cmd with command: msflshtool AL1.dio -p 1. Final, it show: "the file is not msflsh50 format" ??? and there is no file "AL1.dio.part1" was generated in SRPX tool folder???
Maybe I don't undersatand "cut 12 bytes header"

Just open the file with the hexeditor and cut the first 12 bytes to remove the header of the file. than save it.
For example:
XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX E9 FD FF 00
You must delete the XX.
So the new file beginns now with E9.
Thats only an example, maybe your file looks different at the beginning, but you must cut the header.
(XX are only placeholder. You'll see other entries in Your file)
Okok just "remove" 12 bytes header, not "cut" 12 bytes header. Now I can do that. Thank you very much.
An idea: there is a simple tool to change papetool only for "Hermes". With this tool, just load Os.nbh and set 4/6/8/12 Mb, then you will get a new OS.nbh file with papepool you want. That's so easy... You will make a tool like that? I hope so, great man.

I'm not a programmer or IT expert. So someone other will do that.
I was told that the guy who made 18538 ROM would make a WWE 18538 rom for atom life.So you can just wait for the new rom.Also ,he told me that if we want to edit XIP part ,just need to edit the part1.

[Question] Cooking a personal Rom

Is it possible for me to cook a personal ROM? I have tried alot of ROMs here but ever since HTC's new official ROM was out (asia) , I find it really good for me. One thing i hate from the ROM compared to cooked roms are that everything is disorganised. Everything is in 1 program file. In cooked Roms, the chefs have already taken the liberty to assign each app to their appropriate folders (apps,connection,multimedia, etc)
I would like to do the same , however it takes alot of time for me to do so but I can manage that. What i really want to do is, after organising the apps to their respected folders, and installing all of my needed softwares on the phone, how do i make a complete backup of the ROM, and then save it on my computer perhaps. So then i could flash my phone with the backup ROM and the next time i were to flash my phone, everything would be there (my apps, my organised folder).
Will it be possible (i'm sure it's possible, i just need the right software / app to do it)
You're going to need a Kitchen to cook your own ROM; assuming you have a Raphael device, have a look at this thread:

HTH,
Thank you for the link hilaireg. It's very helpful.
After reading the available tutorials, i have a question. Most of the kitchens are using pre-existing ROMS.
I would like to use a new official HTC ROM to start with. "-HTC Touch Pro-MRII-RUU_Raphael_hTC_Asia_WWE_5.07.707.2_Radio_Signed_Raphael_52.58.25.30_1.11.25.01_Ship"
I noticed that all the tutorial require a .nb file which they say comes in the package. However, when i extracted the .exe file , a few files were extracted alongside a .nbh file. But there is no .nb file. What do i do?

You need to have NBHextract Tool it will be in include in kitchen...me too trying to cook on same build with no results. It's no easy try try that's it...
krish_nank, Is this your first time building a ROM?
If so, we're on the same boat...
I tried using NBHextract Tool but when i run the .exe a pop up cmd window comes out and then dissappears. I added the program manually in cmd, and here is what it says , but it doesn't do anything although i have place my .nbh file in the same folder with it.

If you just want to organize your existing app then all you have to do is go to this folder,
\\\Windows\Start Menu
This folder has all the icons for the programs. So now you can arrange/ rearrange icons, create folder and move the links to the respective folders as you see fit. Total Commander can be used for this.
If you want a way to install apps after installing a new ROM, you can use UC you can read about it here

Essentially, once you unpack the "-HTC Touch Pro-MRII-RUU_Raphael_hTC_Asia_WWE_5.07.707.2_Radio_Signed_R aphael_52.58.25.30_1.11.25.01_Ship" executable, you run a script that performs the actions required to prepare the NBH file for custom cooking.
That should get you started.
HTH,

Both Da_g's & AtomAng kitchen or based on some OS build we ...we want to dump a ROM & Rebuild it on our own way we want.......

With my kitchen do this...
Backup the OEM and SYS folder...
If you have the NBH file already place it in the BaseROM folder
If you do not have the NBH file then run the EXE downloaded from HTC, let it go all the way to the first install screen and dont do anything yet, go to your temp folder on the computer, dig around the folders if there are many, you will see ruu_signed.NBH, copy and paste into the BaseROM folder of kitchen.
Once NBH is in the baserom folder start my kitchen
Select 2, 1, 1 and let it do its thing
When extraction is completed and you are back at main menu select option 8, move dumped OEM/SYS from Temp
When that is done select option 6 Copy Extracted ROM XIP from Temp
When that is done your new dumped ROM is ready to be built.
Delete or do not select any duplicate packages
Clean out the new OEM/SYS folders. There is a lot of junk in there that can be removed, welcome folder, do a search in the OEM/SYS folders for *.3gp and remove the welcome movie and blah blah blah...
If you take the time to look at the folder structure of the OEM and SYS folder you should be able to figure it out pretty quickly.
If you need further help you may ask in my kitchen thread.
Hope this is a start for you guys...
nnkumar73, Thank you for your suggestion but i already known about manually doing it from the start menu folder. However it's not practical as , i would have to do it everytime i reflash my phone. If there is a new rom available, and i were to try it and somehow wanted to go back with my older ROM, i would have to do all the moving etc all again.
hilaireg once again, thank you for the link..
At0mAng, Thank you very much as well. I will follow your steps and see how it goes. I appreciate your effort of posting the right steps for it. Thank you.

The easiest way is to use any packer apps like winrar. u can extract the nbh directly. if u r using total commander will be a lot easier. just press ctrl+pg dn & u can extract the file instantly.
Thanks to everyone's help especially At0mAng,
I finally extracted the ROM. I can see aloto of files in SYS and OEM folder.
What i would like to know now is, how do i create folders (icons are not neccessary for the folders) so that i can group installed apps in them according to category? Example is, A multimedia, navigation and games folder is created and , my apps are stored in the folders according to their functions. Like GPS tool goes into navigation and so on..
To simply copy files from \Windows to another directory, you can use an initflashfiles.txt in the OEM. Syntax is:
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Tools"):-File("Enable Proxy.lnk","\Windows\Enable Proxy.lnk")
If you are trying to just place Start Menu items in different folders, it's a bit more complicated. There are many places that this can happen.
1) In \OEM\OEM_Lang_0409\initflashfiles.dat
You can edit this file in Notepad if you remove the ReadOnly bit in Windows. Once you've edited it in Notepad and saved it, you need to re-open it in a Hex editor and delete the first 2 bytes "ff fe". Once you delete those first 2 bytes, save the file and reset the ReadOnly flag. In this file is where I define the Folders I want to use in my "Start Menu" folder like this:
; Start Menu contents
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu")ermDir("Programs")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu")ermDir("Settings")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Games")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Navigation")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Internet")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Multimedia")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Office")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Phone")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Tweaks")
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Tools")​2) *.provxml files
You need to edit these files with a unicode editor. Personally I use EmEditor. You'll notice that in mose packages in \OEM and \SYS there is a _Lang_0409 dir that goes along with it. It's "usually" in this folder where you'll see a *.provxml file. If you open these in EmEditor you'll see that there are lots of file operations. You want to seach or the line containing the *.lnk. In that line you can set the patch of where you'd like the icon installed.
There may be other places that this happens as well, but that's just off the top of my head.
Good Luck!

Somehow, i am not able to find this file , initflashfiles.dat in my OEM_Lang_0409 folder. :?
Do you have Windows Explorer setup to view all system/hidden files? (Tools->Folder Options-->View)
If using a kitchen that supports it (mine does for sure) you can create a new, blank text file in a package folder, initflashfiles.txt
it uses the same format eras2r posted above, but gets appended to initflashfiles.dat during the cooking process
in this manner you can have initflashfiles.dat changed on a per-package basis, it's also easier because you don't have to worry about the first 2 bytes etc.
e.g. \Packages\beer\initflashfiles.txt
When cooking rom check box next to package "beer"
now the contents of \Packages\beer\initflashfiles.txt get appended to initflashfiles.dat automatically during cooking, don't get applied if box is not checked
similarly this initflashfiles.txt can go in any folder in \OEM and \SYS as well
eras2r, yes , it has already been configured to show hidden files & folders
Da_G, i get what you mean, roughly. What you're saying basically is that i can manually create a txt file for initflashfiles and leave it in the packages folder?
Also i am not sure about the syntax that eras2r posted. I find it alittle well above my level of knowledge. Maybe someone can guide / explain to me regarding this?
Right right, an initflashfiles.txt can go in any subfolder under \OEM \SYS or \Packages
You can create the file with notepad, no need to worry about removing things with a hex editor or otherwise using anything other than notepad.
The syntax is as follows:
using this example to create a directory:
Code:
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-Directory("Tools")
Directory("\Path\to\create\directory\in\goes\here"):-Directory("Name_Of_Directory_To_create_in_path") - essentially you're saying "Switch to the folder named \Path\to\create\directory\in\goes\here and create a new folder named Name_Of_Directory_To_create_in_path inside of it.
similar syntax to copy a file from one directory to another:
Code:
Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Tools\"):-File("Fieldtest.lnk","\Windows\Fieldtest.lnk")
Directory("\Path\to\copy\file\in\goes\here"):-File("destination_file_name.ext","\source\path\to\filename.ext") - here you're saying "navigate to \Path\to\copy\file\in\goes\here, copy file from source \source\path\to\filename.ext, rename it to destination_file_name.ext when copying (you can use the same filename here if you don't want it renamed, renaming is useful for files that might be indexed by windows media player, or the windows help system, etc.
That should clear it up a bit, let me know if it doesnt

how to add directory to include_paths?

I have multiple errors like this
frameworks/av/media/libstagefright/ACodec.cpp:39:24: fatal error: QCMetaData.h: No such file or directory
this file located in hardware/qcom/media/mm-core/inc/ directory
how i can add this directory to include_paths?
if it is to a linux computer, you would add this to your /home/user/.bashrc file <- notice the dot.
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/whatever/file/you/need
you can add this line below the same line, if you have one like this already.
to test, youc an also type it on the CLI, if it works, and you needed it permanent, then add it to the file mentioned.
no. it not about PATH variable
on UT compilation i have multiple errors like this
frameworks/av/media/libstagefright/ACodec.cpp:39:24: fatal error: QCMetaData.h: No such file or directory
becouce including header file QCMetaData.h locating in hardware/qcom/media/mm-core/inc/ directory that was not in <<includes_directories>>
how i can add this includes directory to each project which include files from it?
i dont want to catch all dependencies. how get it automatics?
ah I see. that's beyond my sys admin knowledge. someone with programming (gcc) skills can help you. Sorry
