Sorry if this question sound stupid to you, but I'm a newbie trying to play with my Mini.
I'd like to add some cab file from another ext ROM.
How do I install the extended ROM, which I got from ftp.
If I just click it on my mini, it always says something like the file is in ROM !
Should I put it in a MMC & how do run it ?
Can't we install all the extended ROM files in other version to another ?
Or just specific files ?

Just bought an MDA compact (from blueshop24.de, highly recommended), and manged to change rom to English. I`ve being reading various threads about being able to access the extended rom which I can do no problem, but it seems that I can`t edit the config.txt file or write to the ext rom. Am I doing something wrong, or is it not possible yet ??
TIA

Has anyone managed to extract the Windows Media Player 10 cab file from the extended rom?
When WMP10 came out and it was decided not to make it available for download, I remember some people saying it that they had extracted it from the Ext ROM of their new devices that had it but I dont think the cab was ever posted on a thread.
Does anyone have it? If so, does itwork by just installing it on another ppc that is relatively older - i.e. one that didnt ship with it.
That would be really good, as I don't want to put the chinese translated ROM back on my phone.
Unfortunately WMP10 isn't stored on the Ext ROM so just extracting it is out of the question. It appears to be embedded into the OS.
So I doubt you'll be able to get it as an upgrade install soz
Hi all,
I have downloaded a ROM from the ftp site which was a ZIP file containing many CAB files together with Autorun.exe, TPDisable.exe etc...
I know I have to copy these into the Extended ROM folder to then upgrade the ROM (or do I ??) but how do I remove the current files in there because they are all Read Only.
If this is not the correct way to upgrade the ROM, then how do I go about doing so ?
Many thanks

I have got the ROM Image Editor. I edit the nbh file of the ROM. I need to know how to add my cab files to the ROM so it gets installed automatically as I flash the ROM. This will help get things up running promptly with each new ROM I install.
Anyone can help ?
SASHIMI check my ROM thread for download if can't find....
already use Sashimi
I already have Sashimi 8.0 & I use it. But I see building the cabs within a new ROM in way that gets them all installed as I flash the ROM, would be great & fast.
I have the ROM Image Editor but I just don't know where to add the cabs within the ROM folders to reach the target.
Is there anyone who can help on this ?
Cooking
You're going to have to cook them into your ROM, which won't be in the form of .cab's any more. They'll be in EXT. And everytime you change roms, you'll have to extract whichever rom you dl, and recook it with the programs you want in there. SASHIMI is probably your best bet unless you feel like spending a lot of time on each and every ROM just so that when you flash it the programs are already in there.
Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm off base here, but it's probably not worth it for speed and ease issues.
Happy Flashing!

What ROM editor are you using? Perhaps htcRIE_0.5.0.12 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377514 ?
If that´s the one you are using I don´t think is capable to do what you want, as drumboy said: Cooking is the way

Yes it is htcRIE_0.5.0.12. Do you know how to install the cabs in a ROM ?
Usually after a ROM is installed & during customization, some cabs appear in folder Volatile & are then installed. Can I place my cabs along those ?

Ok if you want to install it after flash, then you can do it a few different ways, like UC, XDA_UC or tom's autoinstall. But for all those you need to cook them in the ROM.
If you dont have it cooked in, then shashmi or programs similar to those will help.
You cant edit a ROM using htcRIE, in the sense add cabs and stuff, and recompile it to make it bootable in my opinion.
You can play with it and see! If the ROM is using runCC, then you need to add cabs, and mofify config_operator.txt file to add those cabs to execute in first boot.
Hope this helps.

I found somthing
It is a list of all the stock roms by country
samsdroid.com/2011/11/samsung-galaxy-ace-s5830-stock-rom.html
i downloaded the rom from samsdroid transfered to sd but when i tried to flash it (in CWM) ,there was no such file shown...!! what should i do!!??
maybe it was a tar file meant for flashing thru odin??
Did the file that you downloaded has a .zip file extension behind ? , if it doesn't , add in the .zip . Sometimes , CWM can't detect because mainly of the file extension . It might also be of your antivirus , i've heard of some cases , that people's antivirus started randomly deleting files off , thinking that they're malware and viruses .
