Small soft-pack for removing free space from Gene ROM, make lzx compressing ROM and set Extrom size to 2MB (extrom will be cleared).
After use it and flashing new ROM, you will have 65-70 MB of user storage.
Use it on own risk.
Usage:
1. Unzip this archive to one folder (for example c:\lzx).
2. Put file ruu_signed.nbh from your ROM in this folder too.
3. Run make_lzx.cmd
After it work about 5 min, and you will have new ROM as file GENEIMG.nbh in this folder.
Flashing:
This ROM cant be flashing throught RUU.
You must flash it from SD-Card.
On your device must be HARD-SPL installed !!!
Format SD-Card as FAT32.
Put GENEIMG.nbh on SD-CARD.
Charge your device at 100%!
Insert SD-Card in Gene, press AND HOLD "Camera" button, and do soft-reset.
If you see white screen with "Reading SD content":
Release "Camera" button, wait, and when countdown in left-bottom corner of screen is appear, press "Power" button. Flashing is begin, and approx. 5 min long. After you will see "Success. Press any key". Do soft-reset. Congratulation.
But if you see 3-color screen, then you mast do magic with your SD-Card.

Have you tried appending the temp folder's path in CMD? The process cannot find the file - so appending the path might help. Also, the batch file doesn't seem to recognise long filenames. That could be the reason the files inside your desktop can't be found.
I create GENEIMG.nbh from a wm6.1's nbh file by your tool and flash it successfully. But it stop at the first screen, refuse to boot into windows... i hard reset, soft reset, still the same, anything wrong? Thanks a lot!
That work unstable on 6.1
Try on 6.0

Hello, orefkov:
I try your new xip, but it has the same problem.
I'm using is not a official rom but a chinese version with core 19199. What I can do? Thanks!
then you mast do magic with your SD-Card.
what is the magic??
I dint get u..
Every ROM cant be flashed from SD card.You must make it to boot from SD card.Also make sure that you have formatted SD card in FAT32 and proper chunk size.

1. Download the 20060426 from www.seeo2.com
2. Run DSUU, after extracting the files in directory windows\temp DO NOT CLICK NEXT
3. Copy all 6 files into temporary or another directory
4. From that 6 files, copy 2 files with the extention nb0 (diskimage_ver.nb0 and eboot.nb0) to your mini SD
5. After copying into your mini SD, rename diskimage_ver.nb0 into diskimg.nb0
6. Now, you can run bootloader by pressing camera and soft reset ( you have to put your mini SD into your Atom so that the bootloader will boot from mini SD
7. Just wait and if there is some error message do not bother them, the most important that downloading OS Image and Eboot
8. After that your screen will blank, do not worry or panic
9. Pull out your mini SD and connect USB to PC and run bootloader again
( please make sure that your usb already connected to pc )
10. Now u can normally run the 20060426
This topic has been posted in many threads, there is no need to use the SD if this procedure is not done correctly you will loose the bootloader all together. Instead use the method posted by Luchao:
1.run atom 0416 rom update program, after the DSUU program extracted the files, don't click "next", go to windows/temp folder, copy those files extracted, except "diskimage_Ver.nb0" and "ExtendedRom.img", then save them somewhere else.
2.run july exec rom update program, after the DSUU program extract the files, don't click "next," go to windows/temp folder, overwrite with the files you just saved, this will leave only the diskimage_Ver.nb0 & ExtendedRom.img files as of the july exec rom, others become atom rom files, including an older bootloader which allows you to flash back other roms.
3. flash

this method broke my bootloader too. i spent about RM200 to repair my bootloader...grrr
In case you have a preproduction HERMES and you can not update the ROM (due to the fact that your bootloader is <1.04) here the very easy solution:
- format a SD card with FAT32
- extract the .NBH file from the rom image you like
- rename the .NBH to HERMIMG.NBH and copy it to your SD card
- put SD card in phone and start it in bootloader (hold OK button on left side and POWER button at same time and stick with stylus in RESET on bottom)
- confirm flashing on screen
- flashing might hang after some time but this is normal. Just wait. Complete flash takes about 30 minutes.
This also works for normal (non preproduction) devices but keep in mind that if the CID does not match the flashing might not work.
John
P.S. Same applies to other devices: BREEIMG.NBH, STARIMG.NBH, ...
Re: Solution for flashing HERMES preproduction devices found

Preproduction devices are superCID, so they should be able to flash any image using that method.

I guess BREEIMG is for HTC Breeze and STARIMG for HTC Startrk, right?
Holy Sweet Jiminy Cristmas, OK, now this is what mine is doing so far, (which is further than any thing else we have done)
Sitting at Checking..., and has been for around 10 minutes or so now
Will keep you updated, hey anyone able to get access to the holy grail of HTC support site?
Excellent news!
I just need to get my hands on a micro SD card and I'll give it a whirl!
Thanks again, buddy.
I'll let you all know how I get along.

So how long did your screen stay with the Checking..., as I am now on my 4th IMG to try, and all have taken over 10mins each while on the checking.
I need some slepp so this one i will let run while i sleep.
Any way of changing the CID, as mine is not preproduction.

No known method yet...
But you have a TyTN as I have seen in your other post, so you can flash the HERMIMG.nbh from HTC TyTN rom which will match your CID.
OK, but how can I know my CID, and which one to choose.
darkoverlord said:

The bootloader command "info 2" returns your CID, on a TyTN that is:
"HTCS" + "QTEK_001" + (4-byte checksum) + "HTCE"
You can also find it by running GetDeviceData.exe.
These are the ROMs an it's CID lock:
HTC: QTEK_001
Dopod: DOPOD001
JasJam: CDL__001
Cingular: CWS__001
O2: O2___102

Hi Guys, At this point is it possible to get an .NBH file from a .RAW file and so flash back to my original shipped ROM?
wwaveydave: It is not possible, see my answer here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=62730
The Hermes SPL searches for two files on SD card, one is HERMIMG.nbh as pointed out by J.S. on this topic, the other one is HERMDIAG.nbh.
Anyone knows about what is HERMDIAG? looking at the name seems some kind of DIAGnostic SD card... :?
I've been told by itsme that HTC StarTrek supports 2 ways of sd-card flashing:
1) with 'starimg.nbh' on a fat32 filesystem (same as in hermes, but using hermimg.nbh instead)
2) with a typhoonnbfdecode.pl generated sdcard
I've tried to generate a cooked rom for TyTN using typhoonnbfdecode.pl, but the .nb files extracted using nbh2dbh.pl and dbhdecode.pl are not valid, it seems that typhoonnbfdecode.pl expects the .nb files to be decoded as sd header image (using flag "-i" of typhoonnbfdecode.pl itself), but this tool is not useful to handle NBH files.
Also trying to make a NBF file with typhoonnbfdecode.pl out of .nb files extracted from original shiped NBH file gives an image validation error on each module specified in ' -r '.
Any help will be much appreciated!
hermdiag.nbh is a diagnostic/setup/lock/unlock SPL image.
buzz
If you compare the NBF file you've created to the NHB file pulled from one of the shipped ROMs will that help? I'd like to help, but need time to get up to speed on the whole ROM cooking process.
The problem is that I cannot even create the NBF... I get a validation error in every module, like if all the .nb files where invalid:
- no sm signature at 0 in Splash
- no 7 * jump +5 at start of gsm
- no ECEC at 0x40 in OS image
- no IPL at 4 in IPL image
- no ECEC at 0x0040 in SPL image
any ideas?
Right guys,
I've tried the method outlined in the originating post but it doesn't seem to work for me on my Preproduction Hermes. This is what happens:
1) Format 1GB Micro SD card to FAT32 via Windows (right click and select Format).
2) Extract .nbh file from ROM image.
3) Rename .nbh file to HERMIMG.nbh and copy to SD card.
4) Put SD card in phone and start in bootloader (as specified)
5) The screen goes white for a second and then an error message pops briefly (about a millisecond! I had to do about 20 times before I could be sure about what it said). The error message was "No Image file!"
6) Reverts back to bootloader.
Have tried this with all of the English ROMs listed on the Wiki and get the same result each time. I'm not connected to the PC during all of this. The only file that exists on the SD card is the HERMIMG.NBH (exactly that naming format).
Any help would be much appreciated.
Oz
ok, follow these instructions:
1) Use the "Explore" option on activesync
2) Erase all the files in storage card
3) Copy HERMIMG.nbh
4) Enter into bootloader
No need to remove the microSD card from your device at all... this is how it worked for me.
No such luck for me I'm afraid. I still get the same error. I don't understand it, what is this Image file it's looking for? Is there anyway of determining it?
@pof - is your Hermes preproduction?
I've tried a smaller SD card of 128MB and renamed the file to HERMIMG.NBH but still no luck. I don't know if it's my phone or if preproduction phones except the filename to be different.
Is a .nbh file an image file?
mine is not preproduction, it's an HTC TyTN (HERM200). My microSD card is 1Gb.
I renamed the .nbh file extracted from the rom upgrade exe to "HERMIMG.nbh", I don't know if it's case sensitive or not. It worked for me this way...
And yes, nbh files are rom upgrade files which contain all the rom parts (splash image, radio, ipl, spl, etc...) and are signed by HTC.
i just brick my NIKI, it hung at the WM61 green screen, so far I can enter the rainbow screen, but I can't upgrade the device by Custom_RUU tools.

why cant you upgrade from the bootloader (rainbow). did you security unlock or use hardspl? have you tried a hard reset?
if you are not unlocked/hardspl and hardreset doesnt work then you must flash an origional carrier ROM meant for your device.
You jast need to rename your .nbh file to nikeimg.nbh, and then push the camera button while turning on device. Then follow the onscreen instructions.
if i do that, i see a white screen with "loading" on it. after a 30 minutes still the same?
What is the problem?

when i flash from mcrosd,the update,start immediately after loading....i think that in your case,something is wrong....are you sure that you rename in caps letters?...is "NIKEIMG.nbh" and not "nikeimg.nbh",for example...
But what is meant with "two files"? One file must be the NBH Image but what's the other file? CustomRUU.exe?

i run sspl-1.16-niki.exe,it still hung at 'loading"as well.
is the sspl-1.16-niki.exe cant flash anyrom by SD,or only cant work by USB?
if you havent hardspl ... it only work via USB!!!
SD-Card works too ... if you dont need load Software SPLs first.
you mean that i have to unlock/hspl first,than it will done?
but i cant unlock/hspl with usb
no USB = no chance!
Hi apologies for the question in advance!!!
Im trying to flash a radio onto my O2 stock rom .. i ave successfully put hspl on device but when i try to flash the radio nothig happens????
I have renamed radio RUU_Signed.nbh and when i run custom ruu i get a prompt from computer to allow programme which i do and then nothing happens
THIS IS DRIVING ME MAD I HAVE SEARCHED THE FORUMS WATCHED THE YOU TUBE DEMO AND CANT THINK OF ANYTHING IM DOING THAT IS WRONG ????????????????????????????????????????????
Have you tried to copy the radio file (rename it to LEOIMG) to your SD card, reboot while holding volume down, and flash from there?
Will give it a go now thanks for the help much appreciated
NO LUCK STILL WONT WORK IM SURE IM JUST DOING SOMETHING WRONG BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT...
ABOUT TO THROW PHONE
you did unzip teh radio file and extract the .nbh, right? you didnt just rename the zip(or rar, or 7z, whatever) to .nbh did you?
(by teh way, for usb flashing, no need to change teh filenmame at all, just extract the .nbh, put in folder with customruu.exe, and run customruu. And of course this wont work if your spl ends .0000)
So you copied the radio file (named LEOIMG) to the root of your SD card?
You get past the 3 colored bootloader?
What msg do you get, whats happening?
Edit: What samsamuel said, you have to unzip the file first ofc
Hi yes to above i did extract, tried custumruu no joy, tried renaming LEOIMG AND SAVING TO SD CARD ROOT hold power and down volume , it goes into bootloader and just sits there doing nothing in the red band it says SPL-2.08 HSPL, and in the white band it says SERIAL?????????????????
does your pc run avast or mcafee? they can disable customruu. you can tell because when you run it nothing at all happens.
as for sd card failing, have you formatted it since you got it? cos the o2 stock one comes formatted to FAT but need to be FAT32 for flashing.
also, many 16gb and some 8gb cards can be temperemental
Thank you everyone

Like Abdul9. mentioned:
1. Download from HTC's website the official ROM with your S/N and extract the RUU file with 7-zip or power archiver to desktop.
2. There wil be a file named ruu_signed.nbh on your desktop. Rename that to leoimg.nbh.
3. Copy this file to the root of the SD card, preferably not larger than 2Gb.
4. Power off device and reinsert SD card.
5. Enter bootloader mode (press and hold vol down key and then shortly on/off button).
6. Follow the instructions.
