you just have to run on pc with the usb cable plugged in, and then a soft reset, and everything will be ok...
What boot screen are you looking for? Or do you want to creat your own one?

well i had read the forum instructions and for change boot and welcom screen.
but something is wrong with the typho5. its suppose to extract nb 9200000 files but the application starts without extracting nobthing.
i would like to change the welcome screen from the PDAMobiz to some thing personal. i follow instruction but they dont fit the results i get.
any idea?
thanks to all
specially to the guys in PDAMobiz, who made the best of the best Rom
I want too to make a personal bootscreen...if someone can help us with a little tutorial, we are waiting..thx
Try this
The pdf manual in this thread has a section on updating boot screen and all the tools required to do it are included too.
I do not suggest everybody trys to get into the ROM cooking that is also described, but the splash screen section is fairly straitforward
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297027
first, with this tool you can create your own ROM (customized)...and also splash screens...see the manual pdf

well to make it easy to understand where we stand this is the only file we must change. but there is a problem. the original file is read only and can not be replaced nor rename or moved. not with total comander , not even unlock extended rom. after a small research i found that the file is integrated with in the original ROM not the extended.
so i am looking for a tool to delete/install files into the ROM when present on the device.
it sims that that cannot be done. we must dump the present rom, sort of cook it on our PC than re- install it with changes done.
at the same time since most of us are very happy with the ROM as is , but want to personal it littel bit, its worth a dedicated tool.
i will look into it. if i find a way i will post it here.
thanks for the great job of the PDAMobize last version .
good tool and very stable
You do not need to look into it!!!!
Read the previous two posts and look at the pdf manual in the download - it describes the tools you need to change you images (without cooking a complete rom)
And it doesnt need a hard reset either!

Worked for me
You do need to use a prophet nvid ruu program though

If you have created your nk.nbf file, you can replace the one in this file (rename it to zip)

Hi all, I have a QTEK 9100.
I installed the cab to unhide the extended ROM folder and after a soft-reset I installed Windows Commander/CE 2.0 on my device and when I try to browse Extended_Rom folder I have access but some files names are "unreadable" (I mean, weird characters) and report an impossible file size (example 3.03 GB!)
My question is: Is my Extended_Rom damaged or encrypted? How can I get access to it?
i will say this again: using ext unhider almost always seems to end with corrupted ext rom. any change from TC too.
your case seems to be typical corruption situation.
Do you know how to recover/correct the Extended_ROM? or is it simply damaged???

Hi
Is not damaged...
But if you use your QTEK to write something in extended it seems damaged...
You have 2 ways....
Hard reset or reinstall extended...
Regards...
I didn't write anything in the Exended_ROM folder. I just wanted to know what it contains...
Is there a way to see the files inside Extended_Rom folder normally?... Where can I find my original Extended_ROM? Will a hard reset repair the Extended_ROM?
normal way to view extended rom is to type "\Extended_Rom\" in Total Commander without quotes...
I don't trust unlocking the extended rom...in all the wizard forums, there doesn't seem to be any advantage to doing so...I heard it was only 10 megs of space anyway, and I think a 2 gig sd card is acceptable...

to be more clearly
the extended rom is damaged and formatting it (hard reset or wipe storage) wont do the trick
u need to rebuilt the disk layout which is done by flashing t-mobile 2.26 rom as it has a good extended rom
Or simply flash any EXTrom.. you can make one for your self.. make an empty EXTrom.. and flash..
Hi,
I have small problem with this ROM. If I want to install digital clock like Diamond have the Touchflo2D never start again after soft reset which installation of the digital clock want.
I have tried 3 different clocks with the same result.

Sounds like a HTCHomeSettings.xml mismatch issue.
If your going to update any 2D theme make sure you use the new themes HTCHomeSettings.xml or adjust the original one accordingly.
Check the developement & Hacking section for more help.
HTCHomeSettings.xml
Hm, but this file HTCHomeSettings.xml is already inside this ROM and I cant delete it. It always shows me "You cant delete it". How can I delete it ROM files ?

You can only over write it, first turn off 2D from the today menu and then copy your new xml file to the windows directory.
im having trouble with that too! everytime i try to edit an xml file, I try to copy it to my windows directory and i always get an error message. and it just copies it and doesn't replace it

Make sure you turn off 2d in /setting/personal/today/
Before trying to change the xml file.
TOUCHFLO2D files
Yes. I have the same problem I cant edit the XML file because ALL TOUCHFLO 2D files are inside ROM that's why nobody can makae any modification. It could be solved if every ROM files will be unlocked for editing and deleting. Please, Can someone UNLOCK ROM files ?

Why would you be deleting any of those files in the first place? Download TotalCommander or Resco, shut down TouchFlo (as Ttran has stated twice now), edit or overwrite old files on phone, turn TouchFlo back on.

Digital clock
My problem is that If I install digital clock for MANILA2D it doesnt run. I have to again recopy the HTCHomeSettings.xml, but after that I again have the anolog clock. Where is problem ? I had original WM6 ROM and Manila 2D installed the digital clock worked fine but I havent any free device storage free. That's the reason why I had to flash the original ROM.
You can try change with M2D customizer v0.11,hope it'll help you.

digital Clocks for this ROM
OK, I had to modify HTCHomeSettings.xml file. It took me 1 hour and now I am lucky.
Copy all files to \Windows.
I know that the prograns cooked by the chefs in their ROMs can't be uninstalled by simple going do the "Remove Programs" button on the Settings part of the ROM.
I want to know if there is a way to uninstall some programs cooked in the ROMs BEFORE flashing them into Kaiser...
Is there any program that can easily do this?
Is it safe?
Can it be done without major knowlowedge of the cooking/programming processes?
Since I use the ROMs in Brazil, some of the programs that usually comes cooked in the ROMs are pretty much uselles here (e.g., that one that "reads" the name of the contact that's calling).
Usually I just disable then, but it is kind of a waste of space leaving them there without using.
I would like to know the answer as well

Hi there,
I would use a ROM Image Editor software.
Search for htcRIE_0.4.0.51.exe. open the .nbh file and you will see all the
files included in the ROM. Some files you can delete without having to worry about anything. Give it a try.
I don't take any responsibility if you modify/delete files and it breaks your phone.
Good Luck.

Thank you! I'll look for it.
But the chance of breaking the phone is relevant? I mean, why deleting some third party app files prevent me from flashing another ROM later, if anything goes wrong?
I don't want to deal with anything related to the OS itself, just eventual softwares installed, like MS Voice Command or RSS Hub.
If the only way is to delete file by file I'm note too sure if it is worth the work...
I honestly toought that there was a program that you could open the .nbh file and it would show the installed prograns and the option to remove them.

not worth the work???? what work??? u open the nbh file, u select the file, and u delete it. much less work than actually recooking the rom.
i use htcrie all the time, and i've screwed up many many times. If u screwed it up, and deleted something that you shouldnt......then just start again from a copy of the original and make sure u dont delete it.
or, the 'easy' way (and most chefs provide this) is to flash a 'lite' or 'naked' version of the rom series, then add the crap you DO want. or, download a kitchen and cook your own!

But I believe that most of these programs are not in one simple file... Or are they?
I though that the process of deleting the files would implie deleting ALL the files related to the program.
Some of them put files in the '/Windows' folder, '/My Documents' folder and so on...

Well, first of all, not every chef makes naked ROMs. Second, I usually DO want 90% of what comes in the ROMs, and want to delete one or two programs. So, flashing naked ROMs to install EVERYTHING else is a option that I don't want do consider...
About cooking a ROM, I would do it if I have the time to learn everything about it. Since I can't do it with the knolowedge I have and don't have enought time to learn it all, I'm tryng to find one alternative that can solve my problem.
so you delete ALL the files associated with that program then.

As I said, I just want to delete SOME files of THIRD PARTY softs. I'm going to stay the hell away of any file related to the OS itself.
And I really can't see why this could brick my device... Since any problem will occur only in the ROM itself, I'll probably be able to reflash another ROM...
I wanted to cook a ROM myself, in portuguese and with the programs I use, but I just don't have enought time right now to do this...

Get a M2D .cab and crack it open with WinCe Cab Manager or the likes and you will be able to see.
Hello all ,
I ran into the problem of liking a rom that was protected..
no problem , only thing i want to add was remote tracker.
the rest i do with uc.
So with the help of da_g i striped a kitchen to unpack and repack protected roms.
to add a package , just unpack..put your cab in the dump dir and add it to config????.txt
and repack.
that way i get the use the protected rom with my own package build in.
thought i would post it.

hi arnoldl,
i want to thank you and everyone have helped you to create and publish this. i was searching something like this since many time ago, finally i found your thread and i was able to add RT to the rom i use!
i think this will be useful to many other people
i have changed something and it works perfectly with my blackstone!
thank you thank you.

What is the difference in extracting ngh file, adding cab file to dump folder, updataing config.txt and recooking compared to installing the cab file using UC?
Can we add visual kitchen packages to this dump folder? If we can add do we need to just copy all the files in all the folders of the package to dump folder?
eg: in the package there are some files in 0409 and some in files folder , _skip, app.reg, all these goes to dump folder?
Thanks
@DarkRenegade
No problem , happy that i helped...

If i would buy a phone of the street , i would do the folowing.
- check if there are funny things on it
- format the card
- hardreset the phone
and gone is your remote tracker protection..
If i cook rt in, with my personal settings for it.
after a hard-reset it's installed again , so i can still gps find my stolen phone after a complete format.
only next step i want to take is to re-hard spl , to prevent reflashing if posible.
but these days with new 6.5 images coming out so quick i flash so often i will wait with that one
but all other things i install by uc or later shashimi
Don't know if you can add kitchen files.
never tried it.....
btw attached a new version.
remade it to work with the new envirus kitchen the newer 6.5 roms are using..

You have a Trojan horse in first post!!!
All this to add a couple of cabs to a ROM ? Isn't it a whole of a lot easier to just... you know... install them after ? Or maybe even UC them to make it even lazier ?
Does this work with other roms from other devices? Or just Raphael roms?

Use the latest version of extractor, place the .nbh file in BaseROM, rename it to RUU_signed.nbh and run the extractor.
That worked for me.
A little late reading this, but I downloaded it to rip a rom from a little known site & guess what... Theres a trojan in that 1st post, virus software just riped it out of 2 kitchens recently downloaded as well as that 1st post file.
file namned Win32/Delfsnif.dx
I used your extractor but when i use old (1,2mb) i have problem with rom (sense 2.5 crash , windows menu crash), when i use new extractor (1,9mb) i don;t have a bootable rom (.nbh is very small 15mb-100mb) Is there any solution?
Sorry for my english I hope you can understand me.
I think there are more usefull tools that could help you.
Let's have a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=411915
And I believe that this tool is used by most roms makers.
Sorry but this tool is traying to rebuild protected rom into kitchen (with folders - ext, rom, sys etc.) but this is impossible.
Worked Great ! !
It worked great for me!
Moving to general section
You should just move this to the cooking forum. People are always asking if you can modify cooked roms. Then others are always answering that you can't dump and modify a protected rom, which clearly isn't true. So this would work ok in the Cooking forum (can't even remember the name of the forum, even though I'm a mod there, lol).
If this works, than this is pretty kick ass! I was recently trying to simplify the process as you did but your work looks flawless to me! I'll post as soon as I can confirm it works putting the rom back on an HTC rose (htc s743).
After the rom is dumped, what says what files go in what directories? In the dump directory ALL files are in the dump directory and not in the folder structure they would be after the ROM is flashed to the phone. Where would I find what determines the folder structure?
