How to add .cab files to Extended ROM? - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading

Hello,
now I´ve made the Extended ROM visible and added a .cab file to it, which I wanted to be installed right after a hard reset.
Unfortunately it does not happen...
Can anybody tell me, what I need to do to autoexecute a .cab file,added to ext. ROM, after a hard-reset???
Thanks
BTW, I have a XDA Comet, so similiar to the Atom Life.

Which cab in the XDA II Extended ROM installs Ultra Profiler

Hi Forum!
I want to customize the Extended ROM of my XDA II and therefor would like to know which cab is responsible for installing UltraProfiler.
Thanks in advance
UltraProfiler
This is the question that I have too.
HEY SOMEBODY!
WE NEED THE ULTRAPROFILER CAB-FILE TO THE EXTENDED ROM
:shock:
Come on? Where is it?
The files are in the O2ActiveUI.cab as they are a part of the V2R install which includes the O2 Active UI and skins. You can however extract them and copy the files over manually and it seems to work fine. As limited as the Ultra Profiler is at least it works properly without causing any other problems!
If you want to instal it manually then I've attached a zip (about 90k) with the relevant files in and details where to put them.

How to Port WM6 to Atom

Hi guys, new to this.
realise atom life and atom xda has heaps of similiar hardware. the best thing.. the have been given a FREE ROM upgrade from o2 to fit in WM6.
wondering anyone would like to get ppl started on how to modify a ROM(atom life to atom xda)...?
please provide some initial step jst to get started on playing around with this programming technology. have neve done it before pretty excited
heheh.. nice daz guys.. huhuhu
Upgrade Strategy
We are in the same boat. I have been doing a lot of reading and searching for the last two (2) weeks, and could sure use some help.
Since, I'm new to porting, I am trying to port WM5AKU35 into our AKU22 xda atom device FIRST. If this will be successful, porting wm6 would be the next step. As you know wm6 has a totally different rom compared to wm5. I need to get the hang of porting... before we embark into the ultimate goal.
I'm sharing you what I have gathered, so far. I noticed that the devices others port the new OS from selected a similar device. And by similar, ROM structure is similar. You would be surprised though that when I attempted to port the AKU33 from ATOM Life into our XDA Atom, I had a lot of none functioning parts as compared to when I ported from AKU35 Universal.
I'm not yet sure, if this has got something to do with security issues, as I'm still experimenting and seeking help from the gurus. Hopefully, i'll be able to sit down and figure this thing amidst tight work schedule.
For starters: you may want to search in for all the necessary tools first needed to accomplish the task.
1. imgfs tools - needed to break up and assemble the ROM
2. xip tools - needed to edit the xip part of the ROM
3. bepe's ROM kitchen BUILDOS.EXE and PKGtool.exe
4. ROM from universal, wizard, atom life.
5. our original xda atom ROM file.
I just discovered that BUILDOS.EXE does not reconstruct the ROM correctly for the ATOM. I have tried the Scoter Kitchen and works perfectly fine...
jus wanted to thank you guys for trying so hard to port WM6 to atom

Charmer Kitchen

main kitchen tools made by faria
base rom is a mixture of several roms
rapidshare link Charmer Kitchen
some extra OEM packs OEM pack
this are OEM packs I got from the wizard forum so I take no credit for them
download and extract
do not delete anything in SYS folder that you don't know what it does
OEM folder you can add things and delete things you don't want...
ROM folder most be untouched same with tools folder they are there for building the OS
start BuildOS and choses what apps you want and press the green play button and wait for it to finish.. it will make a folder called temp
now press CreatROM and wait for it to finish if there is any error then you have included to many apps in the BuildOS then you most go back to BuildOS step and remove some app
if no error then go to the temp folder and flash the OS.nb file to your phone
I'll upload an other zip later with much more OEM pack that you can use in building you custom rom....
Is it possible to put some other rom in the ROM folder? like the Essentials rom from nocturne? Would it work?
(I'm pretty new to all of this,sorry for dumb questions )
you can use also my rom for cooking - the only problem is that i'm lazy to release my own kitchen - it needs some cleanup, files there are in terrible mess but i promised to release it, i must do so once...
And would that resolve the driver issue? Like bluetooth and camera? Or would i also have to change something in the SYS folder?
Hi guys
As you might know I do not have a charmer myself.... but it way pointed out to me by anja31.. that one of my roms that I made for Prophet did work for Charmer...
So I downloaded nocturne's wm6 rom added some of my stuf and then made a rom for that anja31 tried and found that it worked but hat problem with bluetooth so what I did is I replaced the bluetooth dll's from nocturne's rom with the once I have.....and if the camera from nocturne's rom worked before then I should also in this kitchen.
Yes you can change the content of ROM folder if you know what you are doing
but now have fun and make some wm6 roms for charmer
Thanks for the kitchen gullum ! I'll play with it & report back. You revived the "Charmer-Scene" for me, thanks for your work.

Package Collection

Given the number of different ROMs and ROM cooking utilities, it's getting very easy to make a ROM do exactly what you want. However, there are very few packages readily available (that is without dissecting cabs or ROMs).
I decided I may as well upload some packages I have made (thanks to ervius's package tool and way to much spare time) so that everyone else can find the apps that they want.
If anyone has any packages to upload, please do, or link to somewhere you have them. But please don't take others work and say it's yours...

Useful tools:
build DSM
Hypercore
Neokit
Package creator (ervius)
MSCinf
Package tutorial
XML tool
Help for xml settings, and using packages in hypercore is attached.
Thnks for this
Please can you tell.me how can i add the one keyboard, ex. htc touch keyboard on the dump rom?
What utility are you using?
i would like to use htc touch keyboard in portuguese... i have taked the files from coffie pt rom!!... Can you help-me?
With which ROM? and in what form are the files? (taken from a ROM, an nk.nbf etc...)
OEM! I want to put on micro v2 edit by me!
Please see att.
Do you have something like hypercore or neokit?
yes yes... i used neokit... i have tried to put that files, do all exacly but not apears the keyboard!... some files missing maybe? :/
What language keyboard is it?
Portuguese- PTG
So, can you help-me? :x
Sorry, I've been out up till now...
I think the problem is that you need two packages (attached) one is the basic keyboard, and the other is the PTG language pack. Using the new Neokit, you should be able to import the packages directly.
Ok big thanks, i will try it
Isnt necessary change nothing on reg.?
The two packages should contain a *.rgu file, and this should be imported by neokit, so no need to change anything.
oh yehhh... i dont have copied that from gullum rom... So i found here is the problem Big thnks friend!
no problem.

Rom to kitchen state

Here iam referring to ervius visual kitchen for gene or opal.
Before making a rom we have a ext, oem, rom, sys folders in which all basic material contains after building a rom with the above folders we get a .nbh file.
Now i want to know whether it is possible to covert a cooked .nbh rom into its initiall stage that is .nbh to its respective folders?

no my friend..if the rom is protected one and that is in 99% of case u cant get anything....only rom for that is sumit pro 21046 nothing else...even if u r building your rom with vk rhen u will get it as protected
Then is it possible to make a unprotected rom?
Yes, if you use the old way to cooking. Using Ervius VK, all roms are protected.
Ok thanks but may i know any old style kitchen?
Almost all chefs are using VK so an old way kitchen is not easy to find. btw see here for a tutorial (This will work well with wm6.1, with wm6.5 maybe you have some problems)
Help
That tutorial is useful but again as u said that in wm 6.5 u may have some problems and iam mainly want to cook with the latest builds 28002.
I tried one awesome way i extracted a protected rom with nbh extract and got one file 00_OS.nb Then using ervius deprotector i tried to deprotect this .nb file and i was successful in that also but after deprotecting i tried to dump that .nb file using evk, nbhdump but they either stopped working or gave error. Any help would be appreciable.
Ervius deprotector doesn't work with all kind of protections. I've tested it and don't work in any rom that I have. Ask for a kitchen for that rom you want. Is better.
Why u want to make unprotected rom?

Post you SDCONFIG.txt file here, also let us know if you are using any other 1st boot user customizations and chef customizations techniques like ( XDAUC, RUNCC... etc ). It is most likely that your UC costumizations are getting overriden by some things.
