Thanks.
What is the best tool to cook?
I tried Hypercore v1.01. Can't pass the first step. It always complain os.nb not found no matter where I put it.

Rom kitchen
I think with hypercore first you have to set the device name further instuction is available in readme document.
Secondly hypercore creates .nbf not .nbh so for final stage u have to use htc rom maker available in gene forum as well.

May somebody please upload the german HTC or T-Mobile Rom from Athena x7510?

May somebody please upload the german HTC or T-Mobile Rom from Athena x7510?
Maybe it isn't necessary to dump it because it is possibly on the software cd or avalible for download for owners with a serial number.

Sorry, it is not. You need to wait until cooked versions get on the forum. But for this we need our spl solution. Please go to General section and find thread asking for subsection for X7510 and place your vote for it. Without it OliNex group wan't start their work on Hard/Soft SPL solution.
Done. I've voted.
But just for being sure you understood me right.
I wanna have the german x7510 Rom to flash it on my x7500 an add keyboard and microdrive drivers.
What I asked for in my Post was if so. may dump the rom if it isn't possible to download.

Then you need rom for x7500, not for x7510. These are plenty to choose from, also german version have sean somware. Go to the link which list all roms for Athena. I have sean there links to german roms as well.
Do you meen this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397518 or this http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Athena_Upgrades List?
Because there is no original T-Mobile or HTC WM 6.1 Rom.

Thats true. There is no original german 6.1 rom not even english WWE version. I told you already. They do not exist as files available because nither HTC nor any other party has released it. It was only in X7510 devices.
Some devs here like Pawel has dumped it from X7510 (but WWE version) and then used for their work. But that means their roms were already cooked. You can not dump rom from one machine and then load it to another one, cose after dumping you get a bunch of files wich you have to put togather, cooke a rom. This means you need to have unlock you CID at least or if you have a t-mobile ameo, then sim unlock as well.
So those german cooked versions are the only available, according to my knowledge.
Thank you for this informations. Now I understand what's the Problem.
But is it difficult to dump a rom?
Because the dump of a german htc or tmobile 6.1 rom would be very usefull for me, even I cant flash them directly because I know so. who wants to beginn cook a german rom version.
But therefor he needs the dump.
So my question:
Is it difficult to dump and can one use this advise for it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334680 ?
And how difficult is it to ripp the htc programms from the dumped rom and make cabs of them?
An other question:
There was such a nice rom kitchen for the wallaby http://www.romkitchen.de/ .
One was able to simly choose with one click what should be in one's rom.
Is this possible for Athena to? and do you think this will be programmed anytime?
Because even with the existing irus rom kitchen its very difficult I think.

You can try Sogarth's Hypercore kitchen. It is more user friendly.
Thanks for the Tipp but it doesn't solve my problem.
I need a raw dump of a german x7510 rom.
I just found these:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410302
Even if it is just for linux and i just have linux live cds it's a gui based kitchen similar to the wallaby's.

Kitchen is one thing, ingredients are the other. You can use Sogatrhs kitchen and put german dumped rom in it and then cooke it according to your needs.
Howewer, I think there is already cooked german rom made out of mixture of wwe6.1 and some german version.
Yes I know that I could use the rom kitchen for flashing a german dumped rom but this is exactly what I'm asking for.
Please post the link if you know a german dump.

I do not think there is one. Never heard of.
But you can take the German rom ready cooked by somebody else (there is one as you know) and dissemble it in Sogarth's Kitchen. Then you can take what you want from it and put into Sogarth's base, changing in this way all files necessary for German language, for example. You would make some changes in XIP and regs as well to change the language.
Or the other way, taking some files from Sogarth's base into your German base taken from this German cooked rom.
Of course to do it right, you must know what you are doing, but it is the same as cooking rom for x7500 out of x7510, which is different machine and has different drivers.
However I have never sow any post from anybody saing that he has German X7510 version, so rather no chance for dumped German rom from this device. I actualy doubt if HTC has ever released German version. The same about T-Mobile, but I could be wrong.

[GUIDE]How to know if your device is an Old or New GENE [Updated with new method]

First thanks to orefcov for this.
How to:
Dowload this file: test spl

2. Run bk1.lnk on device. File bk_06_0001.img is appear on device.

Click to collapse
Open the bk_06_0001.img in the notepad and search for this string: "bootloader version" (without quotes)
When you find it, on "Built on" check date. If your date is < march 26 2008 then you have an old gene. If your date is >= march 26 2008 then you have a new gene.
Sorry for any problem that the old method has caused.
With this method is more secure to determine wich model you have.

You're right. I've updated the first post with a good freeware.

This test was not made by me. I used it to know the model of my gene and it worked. So I re-posted it here.
But if your device has the serial HT8xxx and already came with the WM6 most likely it would be a new gene. The test would not be necessary.
Could you send me your bk_06_0001.img. I want to analyse it.
I'll update the first post with a warning.
its not so
hi
my phone is 8XXX slno and while i did the HSPL (thanks to help from Krazy) i found out that even though my phone was around 7 mths old came with WM6 and p3400i it turned out to be old gene so is suggest( i have also posted a thread on the same in this forum) so kindly dont assume new or old gene by ur nos u need to test with ramersnows testers or use Krays stiky and do the what it says it also has all the tools
this is just for ur info giving u my experience thats all

Other phones are having it faster because the quoted ones by you have bigger stomach (ROM memory) so its a bit simpler to cook this huge giant OS for them. For GENE, the cutting and trimming takes a lot of time. Be thankful that its even running on gene because of developers like Ankit here, otherwise you would never be able to see wm 6.5 on gene.

Htc P3400 - flash rom unlock

Hello friends
I am new in the forum, and I have a question you change the splash of my htc p3400. I'm using the tutorial in this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442416
In the readme file, MarceloFB alert to unlock the flash rom, but my device is locked.
My htc SPL version is .0000, i think it's G3. What Gene_hspl use to unlock the falash rom to change the splash?
Thanks for any help!
Sorry my bad english.
use the application available here to determine whether u have new gene or old one, then use gene_hspl if its says u have an old gene or use gene_hspl8X if it says u have a new gene.
ALL THE BEST
How come your SPL version is .0000??? It cant be in that format. It should be something like x.xx.xxxx
yea it should be like 1.07.0000
revealing the spl version number cause nothing
thanks for the help.

do not downgrade to wm5.
apart from wanting to check the original OEM apps out (via dump) to add into custom roms for smoother operation i don't see why people want to flash these roms onto their devices...
why not opt for newer, stable build releases rather than downgrade your device to wm5...(its like buying a brand new laptop with the best available config just to run win95 on it)
and if you've read the stickies in the forum, you'd know that it isn't exactly safe or recommended...so why tempt fate...
i am right, ain't i??
Hi,
RUU_Gene_hTC_Asia_India_1.17.720.1_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Ship.exe is for old Gene I guess.
Can anybody confirm it ?
