I have ROM files in NBF format. I want to convert it to BIN format in order to edit it. I tried using some tools (prepare_imgfs.bat and NBFtools) method with no success. Can anyone tell me how to do it?
However I'm using Vista. Maybe Vista won't allow to convert it?
i have the same problem, but not with vista, with xp. :-(
helppppppppppppppp
Here, extract nbf with typhoonnbftools.exe (dump as decrypted)
and pack with nb2nbf - read wiki for htc wizard
I've been able to convert the NBF to BIN using prepare_imgfs command after reinstalling Vista. Now no matter how hard I try the viewimgfs command can't dump the BIN file. Maybe the possibility of cooking a ROM in Vista is minimum.
how can i edit BIN files?any softwares?
editing .nbf can be done(contact chinese, they made iphone and vista rom), ive tried the metods mentioned before,but did not work for me. the problem is if u make an unstable rom who can stop in upgrading utility you can get not a custom mobile rom, but a custom brick.
WOW, I thought we've got all those cool tools from you guys.
It's simple, just with a bunch of tools you can do a lot with your nbf. The pack is too big I don't think I can have it upload, but I have file names you can google.
rem If your nbf is only an OS rom, just rename it to have your nbf converted to nb Because nbf is made up of bin(sometimes known as .nb), and a OS only nbf is simply a bin file.
rem to have your os.nb splitted.
tttt\prepare_imgfs.exe os.nb -nosplit
rem extract files to dump\
tttt\viewimgfs imgfs_raw_data.bin
rem extract regisrty to edible rgu files
set _FLATRELEASEDIR=.
tttt\rgucomp.exe -o dump\default.hv -nologo > default.rgu
tttt\rgucomp.exe -o dump\user.hv -nologo > user.rgu
pause
rem below is a batch file I've to have my registy packed to hv files.
rem rgucomp.exe only convert a boot.rgu to default.hv, so you have to rename your rgu first. don't forget -b parameters
set _FLATRELEASEDIR=.
del boot.hv
ren .\default.rgu boot.rgu
tools\rgucomp.exe -b
copy boot.hv default.hv /y
ren .\boot.rgu default.rgu
ren .\user.rgu boot.rgu
tools\rgucomp.exe -b
copy boot.hv user.hv /y
ren .\boot.rgu user.rgu
del boot.hv
Pause
rem pack your dump\ to nb. If your ROM over sized the program buildimgfs.exe will crash.
tttt\buildimgfs.exe
tttt\make_imgfs.exe os.nb -nosplit
OK that's it. I only do these with my Typhoon so I don't have to convert my os.nb to nbf for RUU. But i guess you can get enough help with google. All those .exe tools mentioned above can be found through google, too. I've tried. Just search and download.
My English is not so good, please read with imagination, sorry for any inconvenience.
Ok heres the simple way.
nk.nbf -> OS.nb using typhoonnbftool (right click the OS section and dump decrypted, however under the file type, you must select 'All files' and call the file your about to dump OS.nb)
imgfsfromnb OS.nb imgfs.bin
imgfstodump imgfs.bin
Your OS has now been dumped to the 'dump floder'. Edit as you like, then recontruct using the following:
imgfsfromdump imgfs.bin imgfs.new.bin
imgfstonb imgfs.new.bin OS.nb OS.new.nb
then use nb2nbf to compile OS.new.nb back into an nbf
Easy enough

Thanks Phil ! I was pulling my hair all weekend trying to figure out how to convert nbf->nb and come monday, you answer the question. Great ! Thanks much !
PS: How much more do we have to wait for Crossbow alpha ?

Ohh, I see. The forum must've changed something
Ok, today is my official "I am dumb" day. I just got home and tried to load up the Imate SP5m AKU2 ROM nbf in typhoonnbftool and tried to decode it to a nb file. I do not see any area where I can 'right click on the OS and select dump selected'. I do recall that I saw it sometime on saturday night....just that I dont remember now. Can you please guide me a bit with this ? Thanks much !
Use typhoonnbftool 0.41 (attached), looks like the version you are using is 0.3, which can't read tornado nbf's properly

Is there a tool out there that can dump the rom from the phone to a nk.nbf file?
I've tried awizard but it makes .nba files and I can't covert them.
I believe all you have to do is rename the .nba to .nb and you are good to go.
bump for confirmation.
I have dump rom for Vox in .raw format. How can I flash phone with these?
I was trying to convert it to .nb file with imgfstools with no luck. I got error that MSFLSH50 header not found.
I don`t need to edit the rom.
Is even that possible to flash vox with dumped rom ?
Help please!!!!
That`s steps I take:
1. 'imgfstodump part02.raw` (result: ok)
2. imgfsfromdump part02.raw imgfs.new.bin (result: ok)
3. Use a donor .hbh to extract, Have a 04_os.nb
4. Nosplit -hermes 04_os.nb (result: ok) Have now: 04_os.nb.payload (rename to: 04_os.nb.old.payload)
5. Imgfstonb imgfs.new.bin 04_os.nb.old.payload 04_os.nb.payload (result: error. "MSFLSH50 header not found.")
Now, what am I doing wrong ? Coz I don`t get it and I`m stuck.
Help.
Thanks
You can't flash the .raw
But I found another way to dump and flash a ROM.
You will need a special USPL which can raw dump to SD and Winhex to read the raw dump to file. Tomorrow I will post the details.

Yes, I know, I can`t flash .raw file. Above I posted steps I took to create a .nb file from .raw and error I get.
Please take a look.
Other way, can I use:
Code:
pdocwrite -w -d FLASHDR -p Part02 0 0x3586800 Part02.raw
to flash part02.raw to device? I know it`s not save, but will it work?
The .raw files I have come from other Vox with diferent rom version,that`s why I want to flash it, so I`m not iterested to dump my rom.
Thank

I think it it just what I need. Waiting for your details. Will it work on htc 710 vox? How safe is this procedure?

How to generate a CORECT .nbh file from these files for HTC VOX?
I tried to use NBHgen.exe and nb2nbh.exe but it seems that those progs can`t produce a CORECT .nbh file for HTC VOX.
Any help is welcome!
Rom cooking gurus please help?
Is it possible to convert .nbh to nk.nbf to be able to flash this rom on a prophet?
It depends on where the nbh is from. To do it, you'll have to dump it into SYS/OEM (I'd use a hypercore related tool for this) and then rebuild it into an OS.nb before converting it to nk.nbf for flashing.
Its HTC ELF original Rom...where can i find all tools?
thanks dude
In the prophet WM6 forum, there is a link to HyperCore kitchen.
I'm not sure if the ROM will work straight away on a Prophet, as they have different hardware...
edit: to dump the ROM you will need to use the attached files. Put the *.nbh in the same directory as the two files and then run the batch file.
thanks man,am gonna work on it right now
hey guy .. when i use the nbh extract .. there write could not open the nbh file ..
how ?? can you all please help me ??
