how i can run a nk.nbf with out a ROM Update Utility & flash it to my device ???
You need a RUU. Search the threads for one, maybe on a HOWTO thread or on a thread where people are asking about running an RUU in Vista. Since the RUU doesn't change with each ROM, we usually put out the ROMs as just NBF files without the RUU.
Just about any RUU will work. Just put the nbf file in the same folder as the executable, and run it.

... I cannot install it on my device due to CID lock.
I have cracked the protection of ACE HELLAS but I don't know how to install it on my device. I tried to upgrade using aWizard, but the device won't boot.
What I have now is an .nba file with the patched ROM.
Please tell me how to install it on a CID locked phone so I can test it, and then I will post the ROM
Credits go to Marker who initially found out how to crack the Greek rom for the universal.

Thanks for your reply, but aku 2 roms only allow you to upgrade. In addition to this, I would have to find a way to convert an .nba file to .nbf .
I anyone has a Qtek device and wan'ts to try my file, don't hesidate to ask. I can upload my .nba on the ftp
By popular demand I've created HTC Kaiser CustomRUU, it is basically the same as the HTC RUU, but packed in one single exe file and slightly patched to perform a 'task 32' instead of a 'task 28' after flashing an NBH, so it will not format your device if you just flash a radio or a Splash screen.
Note: This CustomRUU will not allow you to flash unsigned files unless you have HardSPL installed, it will not push SSPL.
Instructions as always: Drop the NBH file of your choice in the same folder as CustomRUU and start flashing
Recommended tools for handling NBH files:
NBHextract - Extract contents from NBH files
htc rom tool - Repack NBH files from *.nb files
Enjoy
Oh you tease we are so close to cooking so close just need to figure out the imgfs tools!
will this work in Vista as someone had posted a ruu that works in vista for the Hermes I believe.
I don't know, I don't use Vista. Try it and report if it works or not
It works for Vista!
Thanks
great job pof, keep it going
But it's for the wrong phone :Cry: now we just need this for the Athena...
Sorry for the noob question, but what does this customRUU do? I've already hardSPL'ed my tilt and load the kaiser ROM.

Do I understand this good (translate in my brains)?
In the original situation with original ROM, when you update the RadioROM the device will format? Strange!

Re-read the first post. It's there. If you don't understand it, you probably won't be using it so I wouldn't worry about it.

I am using Duttys 6.1 beta rom and I have flashed my device using KAIS_Radinly_1.64.08.21_CustomRUU and now the device just sits there at the HTC screen. Of course in this state I can't flash the old radio back as it isn't getting into the main part of the OS to sync. I have tried hard resetting and that takes me to the set up pages but then it takes me back to the HTC locked page again.
Is there anyway to get it back?
I am a bit worried that I have bricked it.

Nevermind, please delete this post.
XP SP3?
Has anyone tried flashing on a Windows XP SP3 ?
Tried using any RUU and having a problem whereby it gives the error "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc000007b)"
Is it me or has anyone else had this issue?

I am trying to just flash my Radio. I have downloaded KAIS_Radinly_1.65.17.56_CustomRUU and when I try and upgrade my radio it says do you want to update your ROM from 3.14.405.0 to 1.0.0.0. Should I just OK this so it will continue to the Radio Update? I do not want to change my ROM

Hello,
I want to (re)flash WM6.1 from microSD, but can´t find a nbh. Flashing in softmode will hang up and freezing my screen on the tricolour.
Extracting from RUU_Kaiser_HTC_GER_3.28.407.0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Ship.zip
will create an exe-File.
Any chance to get out a kaiserimg.nbh from the exe or any link to a german WM6.1 Rom /NBH?
Regards
Check the Kaiser Wiki instead of starting a new thread. There're repositories for many versions of OEM ROM.
Of cause I´ve done this before. But the german ROMs I´m looking for will be extracted as exe-files, I couldn´t find the necessary hints.
Try open the exe using Winzip. You might see the NBH there.
Edit: I tried running the Kaiser_HTC_ASIA_HK_WWE_3.34.721.2.exe I have, it installs there should be folder containing RUU_Signed.nbh (your temp file folder?). Use this file, rename as KAISIMG.nbh and flash using SD method.
Get Uniextract, then right-click on this installshield wizard and select "Uniextract to subdir" .
Uniextract can do thousands of formats. It's nice program lol.
Does anyone know how to remove revolutionary and revert back to stock. Im running a HTC Senation xe? I get error code error 155 unknown error. Using the RUU
You mean the hboot? I would try to zip
Code:
hboot_8x60_1.18.0000_20110802_signedbyaa.nb0
android-info.txt
from
Code:
RUU_Pyramid_LE_HTC_Europe_1.73.401.4_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_220036_signed
Rename the package to
Code:
PG58IMG.zip
and copy it into your storagecard root. Enter the bootloader. Follow the on screen instructions.
In case this won't work, change your CID to SuperCID or edit android-info.txt to allow your CID (but I guess you're on XE so CID shouldn't be a problem)
So what your saying is if the RUU.exe file doesnt work. rename it to PG58IMG.zip and put it on the sd card?
Ach, no, no. You need to extract the exe file.
The easiest method to do this is to run the exe and don't click "next" or whatever the installer is saying. Just keep the installer open and search your C:\ drive for rom.zip.
Extract the file as you would do with a normal archive.
Now you need to zip only this two files:
Code:
hboot_8x60_1.18.0000_20110802_signedbyaa.nb0
android-info.txt
Name the archive PG58IMG.zip
I cant seem to figure out how to do the first bit. Extracting the RUU from the exe archive?
I'll try to be a little more detailed
So when you start the installation RUU the program itself creates temporary files on your computer. One of those files is rom.zip. The problem is that the directory is generated randomly.
It's something like that:
Code:
C:\Users\localhost\AppData\Local\Temp\{88F1C5DF-C107-4939-9651-18615BAD254B}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B}\rom.zip
(for Windows 7 and user name "localhost")
The problem is that the installation app removes those temporary files if you successfully flash the firmware, cancel the update or terminate the process. So I suggest that you run the exe and search the whole C:\ drive for a file called rom.zip. It contains the files you need to extract. It's not possible to extract the exe in any other method as far as I know.
maybe Im doing something wrong but I cant find the rom.zip file. Im running windows vista.
Try this:
Start the RUU exe file. When the Update program appears click on "View ReadMe".
If you got Office installed Word should popup.
Click on "File -> Save As" (or something similar on your PC). Check the directory on top. Please find attached the screenshot with shows where to find the path to rom.zip.

only supercid if you want to unbrand the device. an xe doesnt need it
you can check your cid and chose your correct rom. (in terminal use fastboot getvar cid command).
