help rom - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i needed some much needed help with installing diniks new rom , here is what i know how to do so far. I downloaded the file and copied it to my sd card , then i made a new folder on my sd card and copied the rom to it , thats as far as i can get. Im guessing the part where i need help is where is says Create a folder on your SDCard with name Autoinstall and place all your CABs & XMLs there, after flashing, your CABs and XMLs will be autoinstalled.
I donot understand when it says place your cabs and XMLs after flashing into the autoinstall folder . What is cabs and xmls and flash . I have read the directions but is says nothing about what all this is so i would appericate it if someone could help me ...

Auto install is for installing games, apps and mods. you put the cab file that goes with the game or app or mod into the folder and toms autoinstaller will install it during the flash of a rom. As long as that rom supports autoinstaller. It is not nessesary to auto install anything if yo do not wish. If you are just trying to flash a rom the autoinstaller is not needed. But you will only get the customization that comes with the rom.
If I missed anything could some one fill in the blanks. I may not be that good at explaining things.

How to install Ext-Roms

I have been reading the posts but I cant figure out how to install the EXT-ROMS. I downloaded the upgrade and the EXT-ROMS. I succesfully flashed the upgrade but am still confused about the EXT-ROMS. Also Where can I see the EXT-ROMS already on my device. I thank you in advance for your help.
Install...
After you unzip the upgrade files to specific folders, you'll see some files including NK.nbf and Radio_.nbf. Then you unzip the ExtROM file to another folder or same folder as before (this is recommended) and you'll files including ms_.nbf. Well, whatever you do just make sure that ms_.nbf file is inside the upgrade folder (together with NK.nbf and Radio_nbf). Then flash again your ROM by clicking HimaUpgradeUt.exe, follow the instructions and don't disconnect from the power. It is best you soft reset the handset before do this. I hope this will help
more help please
OK here in lies the problem. I downloaded HIMA_WM_2K3_EXTROM.RAR with the main upgrade files. There is no ms_.nbf file in the HIMA_WM_2K3_EXTROM.RAR how do I either create or get one?
Search around the forum....
R u located in Asia? Cause, if u r then u can use ExtROM by Sin or ZeroXtreme. U can find the file in the forum, try to search by the Author Sin or ZeroXtreme. If you want to make one then use ER2003Edit_1_2_20 then add file that u only need. However, it is best to read the forum by Sin as he/she explain the guide step by step and tell u what the file for. The guide is easy to follow (according to me), happy hunting and try. Please be careful, if u don't really understand or know better to ask around first. U don't want to have an "expensive brick" rite?

how to reconstruct a dumped rom for my niki?

hi
before installing Tom rom I have decided to dump my original rom in case I needed to put it back.
anyway I have been able to dump the 4 Raw files. now I see that in the Kaiser section there is a guide on how to reconstruct a rom to make it flashable and I wonder if I can do the same with my Niki.
any expert could pls confirm this?
thanks in advance for your help.
cheers
edit: I ve just noticed that there are some other threads about this subject...anyway if someone can confirm the right procedure would be great. thanks
Yeah, also wondered about that Kaiser rebuilding tutorial.
Talked to a few people over PM who have the same problem.
But even in the Threads nobody who knows more about flashing/ROMs seem to be willed to help out with a fre informations. :-/
Still confused about the needed baserom in this thread.
-Is this available for Niki? (Where)
-Why do i need it / why can't i rebuild a rom ONLY with my phone and need something like a bsserom?
-if i use baserom from a english device, what will happen if I use with my german RAW files?

a baserom is nothing more then a normal rom, just put a rom you like, together with the dumped filen in the kitchen folder. maybe ruu needs some information from the rom file itself, which are not present on the device.
what you find on your device is just that what you dumped. (but after hardreset)
.. i know that this not matters for you anymore. but eroG needs to know.

well yes I defenitely needed to know these things...
now, if it is not of too much trouble for you, where do I find a baserom and is there a guide on how to do it...just to avoid stupid mistakes while doing it?
thanks a lot
So, from baserom there are not much information used. (Perhaps Header information for Rom file, or something like that)
My new ROM is (more or less) the same result as on my device?
And Baserom isn't a own file format, i can use the wwe-rom postet here in the forum?
thx for help

request guide on how to get dumped rom back to device
i've read alot about how to dump rom from device and how to get dumped rom back to device.
the more i read i got confident how to dump rom .... did it .. and now have my 4 raw files.
on the other hand the more i read about how to get dumped rom back to device ... more and more i got unsure how to do it.
so please all senior posters and specialists - can you please post a cookbook on how to get it back to the device ?
thanks ! alot and keep up the good work here !
Sackbauer, I totally agree with him.
I have 4 Raw files for a Norwegian ROM, but how do can i "transform" them into a acctually "flash" file?
Please someone with the knowledge, write a "easy to understand/ step by step" guide to the ones that don't have a clue about this..
Ole
im getting kinda confused with this also, dumping the rom is no big deal, but putting it back together and flasing my phone with it, thats the big how to...
I has contact with Tom.
And he busy with vietnamese new year now.
He said will back after 1,2 day and answer all questions..
Don't worry
... good to hear that tom will take care after his new year ;-)
also keep my fingers crossed that someone is able to check radio rom and possibly enable gps and wifi ...
let me try first:
- download this kitchen
- Copy your part01.raw and part02.raw into the BaseRom Folder of this kitchen
- Copy a Nike RUU_signed.nbh into the BaseRom Folder (e.g. tom_codons rom just open the. exe with winrar and extract the file)
- Open !Begin.cmd, press 2 and do everything, what is prompted
- Open !Cook.cmd and do what is prompted
- when HTC Rom Tool is opened press Rom_Builder and ... right from System. Then Choose os_new.nb and press built
i wrote this without testing again. so if i missed something tell me, please and i'll try to help.
sounds good !
will try it later this evening and will let you know ...
thanks so far
omg .... it appears that i just "cooked" my first rom out of my dumped files from my niki .
thanks therealholg for your guide !! thats what i was looking for.
the only thing which makes me a bit nervous about reflashing my just cooked rom onto my device is that during cooking it sometimes says "file not found".
but after ignoring these messages i have a nbh file which obvioulsy was not in the folder before !!! ;-) yeah
so, now i know how to revert the process but i am to anxious to try it as this is my only niki.
lets see and wait what others say about the step by step guide of therealholg ...
in anyway - you made my day therealholg
cheers
wow... thanks for this...
tryed it out and works...
the only thing is that it still says Niki Project on the boot screen...
everything else works just fine

What to do with part00.raw and part03.raw?
Part00.raw is the are with IPL, SPL and Splashscreen. We don't want to override our new SuperCID Bootloaders
Part03.raw is content of your local storage ... i think you can't flash this area with ruu.

hi
Gene_Kitchen_6.5_Beta.rar please any one can give me a exe file
@Soni: There is nothing like exe file. You will get a .nbh file which is updated through ROM update utility.
Please read some of the threads for updating the ROM else you may brick your HTC Gene device. Also ensure that you are using the right version (OLD or NEW GENE).

i am notable to build .nbh file.when i click,on build_xpr file,sm error cmes
I have tried this kitchen, and worked fine, but when I add some packages to the SYS folder, they wont build in the rom. In buildOS, I can see those packages are unchecked(while cooking).
How can I add packages to the rom?
^Xumit: Remove the file option.xml from your packages. You wont see them listed in the build os then, but the packages will compile fine. This file is responsible for that description appearing in buildos and by defualt it has option set to not compile the package, for some strange reasons. So if you dont want to show the package in buildos gui, which is of not much use, just delete this file. Otherwise, change the option inside it to include the package.

Thank you a lot! Using ROMExtractor, I have another "shellres.192.dll" on my
storage card!
But another question:My purpose is to use ResourceHacker to chang BMP for
waiting cursor which is hidden in "shellres.192.dll". But when I Extract
"shellres.192.dll" from \windows\ to \Storage Card\, then I just copy it back to
windows,(didn't do anything else),I find the "Setting" panel has been
changed,the three sub-panels: Personal,system,connections, missed!
I don't know why. Please help me,if can. Thanks!!!
rather than just copy it back into windows, make the file into a cab that installs it to windows. just copying files over rom files doesn't usually work.

Thanks for the instruction! I use WinCE CAB Manager3.0 to make a cab named VagrantMan Wait Cursor.cab.
It shows the same result: the Wait Cursor works well, but I find the "Setting" panel has been
changed,the three sub-panels: Personal,system,connections, missed!
Are you kind enough to check my cab? Is there anything wrong?

surely this makes it a moot question. but the answer is yes but you would have to flash it from your sd card with xrecovery.
edit: heres mine with the apps removed, open in 7zip and drag your apks into the apps folder.

I think he was asking how to make it himself. Like how to properly make the things in that META-INF folder. I've searched too and come up with nothing. It'd be nice to be able to make a custom zip and flash back my arc phone apps, I flashed the honeycomb theme from that guy who's not go3asy, and I only hate its dialer/phonebook/calllog/favorites.
maybe you can try the HTC kitchen,which requiers your computer has a JAVA environment.
