how to reconstruct a dumped rom for my niki? - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development

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 all friends...!
I'm just back from some days busy with vietnamese new year.
And have made code kitchen for reconstruct a dumped rom niki device.
What we need to do now ?
1. Copy part02.raw u dumped from original rom to Tools folder and run step1.bat
2. Extract RUU_signed.nbh from Ship rom and put in ShipRom folder.
Link download :
http://www.asia.htc.com/download/RU....707.09_Radio_Nike_1.58.16.27_signed_Ship.zip
Or here :
http://www.asia.htc.com/download/RU....871.14_Radio_Nike_1.58.16.27_signed_Ship.zip
3. Run Reconstruct a dumped rom.cmd in my Tools and wait some times.When page DOS done it will exit .U go to Update_Rom folder already have new RUU_signed.nbh.This files reconstructed your original Rom with your languages.
Have funs..!

OS Bad Block Checker

Ok, here it is; this file will take any OS.nb and analyze it for bad blocks; it won't tell you if the OS is properly valid or not, but it can tell you if flashing it will bollocks up your Hermes or not.
no warranties as usual; and it's also quite faster without the progress bar turned on, just to let you know.
Fabulous!!
Now I can safely test the new OS building process I want to use for WMXL v0.30
Another safety measure for the Hermes.
this is only getting better.
You got to love this forum, great work guys
thanks again Olipro, that one will be handy
Thanks so much, great work as always; we've been quite spoiled with new tools these last few weeks! The Hermes time has truely come!
Olipro, mate truly another great tool... its getting hard to keep up... how about a wrap up thread of your tools....
yes, a "wrap-up" thread will come in the form of ROM Kitchen which I will have released within the next two weeks... should be good
OS.db
How can I get an OS.db?
I only have RUU....exe ROMs and i do not know how to obtain OS.db from it?
Can anybody help me or send me an OS.db for me to reconstruct a dumped ROM for SPV M3100 orange spain?
Thank you.
.nb
Olipro was talking about the os.nb, there's no os.db file.
You have to unpack your exe file, there should be
.) ruu.exe
and
.) ruu_signed.nbh
in it.
Then you have to use duttys good nbhtool to extract the os.nb from this ruu_signed.nbh. Its not possible to send you a .nb file because its at about 70 megs.
Thank you.
But the roms files that i download are *.exe and if i double click it, an installation window appear.
How can i extract the files you say from this *.exe?
You have to install winrar or winzip first then click with the right mouse button on this .exe and extract it to a folder.
But honestly said (and with all due respect): If you don't know how to extract a file its better to do not anything with this file nor to flash it. Because its possible to brick a device during flashing and its a long, long way to unbrick it, especially without computer knowledge and comprehension.
Thank you.
I agree with you that if i do not know how to extract a file, it is better not to do anything more complicated.
But I have extract and comprime files lots of time, the problem was that, until now, i had only ROM files from HTC and this file is an exe, not a compromed exe. So I cannot extract anything. I answer thinking that with a special programm it was possible to extract the file from this *.exe.
Now I have download a ROM from Schaps and I have got the nbh file without problems.
Thanks.
Is there a os checker for files .nbh ?

nk.nbf

was wondering if someone could tell me where to find the nk.nbf from dcd's 2.2.x roms...want to cook up some custom boot screens, but have NO idea where to find it (or get it from). thanks
You need to extract the nbh from the installer (you can use procmon from sysinternals.exe to find out where the installer extracts it).
After that you need to decompile the NBH using various tools, in which will present you with a 00_OS.nb.
After doing that, you need to extract the splash images from other roms, or create your own, then recompile the NBH.
EDIT: wow first post since 2006, you can tell ive been a leech, glad to give back to the community lol...
I was going to post the contents of the readme file that i'm trying to understand...in order for you to see what i'm being told to do, but I really can't decipher it all that well, so i'm going to attach it. This is what I'm being told to do...
Have you looked in to this: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=16939
Yeah I read through that...
Thing is...with dcd's latest roms, the only file you get when you extract his nbh is 00_OS.nb
I have my splash.nb already made from the image i chose, but I'm not sure what to do with 00_OS.nb and splash.nb
Make an NBH from them.
You can use Dutty's NBH Tool patched for the Titan.
Since I can't find the original thread where I got it (took me forever to find in the first place) I uploaded it to fileshex.
Download here
I don't have to name my splash.nb something specific when creating the new nbh? It will just know that it's the splash?
Edit: nevermind, after opening duttys tool it's clear on how it works...thanks
Ahhh..one more question...
Is it possible to just take my splash.nb and make an nbh out of that. Then put it into the RUU and flash just the splash? Or must it be merged with the entire rom and flashed?
I have no idea.. I never did it. I want the original Verizon splash screen back instead of the static Verizon logo.
Try it and let us know if it works.
Can someone upload VZW_Startup.gif from \Windows somewhere I can download it?
I'd appreciate it very much
Confirmed.
Just took splash.nb and created an nbh just including the splash fields. I then inserted it into the RUU, flashed, and worked like a charm, no need to include any other part of the OS or anything.
Looks badass...for any help let me know...now that I know what I'm doing
P.S. It WILL hard reset the phone though upon flashing...
I put all the necessary files in a zip and I'm working on an easy step by step readme...so if anyone wants to change their bootscreen send me a pm.

TFAT Image Editor for editing ExtROM (author unknown)
HSPL for Gene to be able to flash custom ROMs here - (procedure) (Olipro)
Excellent guidance for upgrading Gene ROM by Mobix here (Mobix)
I know there are a lot many other files for editing the rgu files and creating hv files but I didnt try them. I dumped the ROM successfully and still learning to delete or add packages. Although I am not saying that I successfully flashed my Gene with the ROM I cooked, but learning never stops till someone expert comes along to explain things and to guide us cooking wannabes to a nice kitchen and a nice personalised ROM Your suggestions and guidance and advices are all more than welcomed here
The post below is where I am going to post the packages I create and the one below that is where I am going to put up the problems I face so no one else will repeat and brick their phones
Also attached the original Gene RUU, just in case
I did my part of dumping the OS.nb in HyperCore as mentioned in anichillus's thread here. Then I used the package tool to make packages from the dump and transfer the SYS and OEM folder to Build. I haven't yet mastered the art of adding or deleting the packages here but I certainly deleted the useless images and theme files which eats up space. Post that I did the BuildOS which created the OS-New.nb very nicely. Used HTCrT tool to create the new RUU_Signed.nbh with the OS and ExtRom. While flashing the RUU showed "Flash Write Error" at about 99%. Need guidance after or prior to that, although will not stop trying and will keep posting the progress so far here
OEM Packages created by me
(A) OEM Packages created by me with Alex's procedures:
DciNoBar
FTouchFlo_V1_4_1
FTouchFloConfig_V0_9

Problems I have faced so far
When I tried to recreate the hive files (default and user) Problem was faced in default.hv. Attached CMD screen, default.rgu and boot.rgu file - Solution: Found by Orefkov here
After I tried to flash my Gene with my custom cooked ROM, it left me with a blank phone. Although I passed the 1st splash screen then it was blank - Solution: Found by Anichillus here
Thanks to following experts for guiding me and lending a helping hand

did your gene comeback?

Work with registry.
Some key's names in gene registry have '\' (slash) symbol in it.
Rgucomp dont work with this. You need replace '\' in key's names on '\\'.
I write simple script for it.

How To: Modify a ROM.

Over the coming days, I shall be writing more below as a tutorial for ROM cooking/Modification.
First, you will need a ROM kitchen. For ease of use, I would recommend Inteks Neokit which can be found here.
Next you will need a base ROM (any Prophet ROM will do) many can be found here.
Now, load neokit and then select the "Select nb/nbf" option. Select the ROM you want to modify and then click "dump rom". This will deconstruct the ROM and put all the files included in the ROM into a single directory.
If you know the files you want to change (such as images) you can simply find them in the "dump" folder (click on the "..." button on neokits main screen) and replace them with the files you want.
If you want to add a program, you can do it two ways:
Create an OEM Package.
Install a CAB after the flashing of the ROM.
If you want to change the registry, the "default.rgu user.rgu" tab must be selected.
To change shorcuts, you will need to edit the "initflashfiles.dat".
After modifying the ROM, you will need to build it back up so that you can flash it. Go to the main screen and click "build ROM" click yes, and then you will have to wait for this to complete.
Now you need to turn the *.nb files into a *.nbf. Follow the instructions in neokit for this.
This will be updated with more detail when I have the time to do so.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask as I and others will be willing to help.
What can be safely removed?
Below are the names of packages that can be removed without causing instabilities. Having said that, the may dramatically reduce the functionality of a ROM. The best way to find out what ca be removed is to try it yourself, flash it and see if anything works/doesn't work and then build on it from there. Post your findings here and help someone else!
Internet Explorer-Related Packages
Browsing--Base for IE
Browsing_DPI_96--Images related to IE
Browsing_Lang_XXX (where XXX is the region code) Can be removed or replaced for localisation.
BROWSINGCORE--This might cause instabilities to the OS as lots of programs rely on these files
Also reserved.
Thanks...
It's really helped...

This question can't be answered, it is a bit the same as "How do I get to Amsterdam?" Without telling us where you are!
How can anyone tell you what is to be removed in your ROM if we don't know what files are there in the first place? This can be different depending on wich ROM you use; some are allready "cleaned out" while others are stuffed to the max.
But above all, it is up to you to decide what you will sacrifice to create more space. The challengeing part of this game is to try, explore and discover and experience that overwhelming satisfaction when a plan comes through!!
So, my advice: don't bother to refrase your question but just go for it yourself....

You have to overwrite the MUI files, change some paths in the Regsitry (default.hv and user.hv, konvert them first) and change the paths in the initflashfiles.dat! That's all!

hi l3v5y :Moderator,
I was a new member of xdaDef...
i'd ever cook the rom base on the RK at PDAMobiz.com..
But i got the prob. about how to add the program into the OEM package 'coz some programs i got that contained the old version.
Anyway i used the package creator 5.5 to do create it into the OEM file...
after that i can collect the program in OEM and can build OS but after upping the ROM ....
it;s got HANG.... Oh no..
I tried many many time to change something but i didn't have the knowledge about RM..
could u pls. suggest me by e-mail how to cook the rom by myself after i d/l the SYS, OEM, and XIP of "CE 5.2.19960 (issue form HTC Raphael) ported for ELF"..
I wanna be a rom cooker asap....
Best Regards,
JoeMan

Also another suggestion:
When removing one or more software you should also remove the setting in initflashfiles.dat and the registry in default/user.rgu, that's call clean remove.
When adding softs, also include adding path and registry also.
For better removing or adding soft you should look inside their cab (I use WinCE cab manager)

Also another suggestion:
When removing one or more software you should also remove the setting in initflashfiles.dat and the registry in default/user.rgu, that's call clean remove.
When adding softs, also include adding path and registry also.
For better removing or adding soft you should look inside their cab (I use WinCE cab manager)

Oke
For instance, you want to add smsbackup in your rom
Open smsbackup.cab with wince cab
There are 2 files (exe and dll), 1 shortcut (lnk) and 4 registry entry
So, you should add 3 files (exe. dll, and lnk) to dump folder (adding fiile from neokit tools from Inteks)
Adding some initflash.dat with some path (where do you want to put the link file)
Adding 4 registry key in default or user.rgu
For removing, the process will be reversing.
Hope this will help you
I think you should try practicing.

Understanding the structure of ROM files

Looking for some info on how rom files are structured and how manipulte them
I have .nb0 file that I want to flash but I'm not sure what else is in it other than the OS. How do I get this file into a format I can flash ?

Some ktichens will allow you to convert OS.nb into a bootable ROM. There are also some programs that will let you do it. You can try my kitchen, it is pretty straight forward and read through it carefully and you shouldn't have a problem. Kink to kitchen is in my sig.

Thanks! I'll give it a shot. Will this help me figure out whats in cluded in the nb0 file?
Have a look at this thread ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=490787
it provides some info on what's in the ROM and should easily compliment At0mAng's kitchen.
Cheers,
Good info thnx.
Question
When I run option 7->3
( Make a Bootable ROM from OS.nb files -> HTC ROM Tool for Touch Pro ROM)
the program just bails on me. Any idea why? os.nb is there. i can do 7->2 and it works fine but but I have a touch pro (option 3).
also how do I find out what is in a .nb0 file?
