XDA IIs Asian Rom Operator Code & Steps for Changing
the opeartor code for XDA IIs Asian Rom is
O2ASI001
Step by Step Insatructions how do change it:
1. Download the rom files and extract to a folder say XDAROM
2. Now create a file using notepad and save it as .bat file (remember the .bat extension, NOT .txt)
3. Add the contents below to the bat file
Code:
xda3nbftool -x ms_.nbf ms_.nba 0x20040522
xda3nbftool -x nk.nbf nk.nba 0x20040521
xda3nbftool -x radio_.nbf radio_.nba 0x20040523
xda3nbftool -so O2ASI001 ms_.nba
xda3nbftool -so O2ASI001 nk.nba
xda3nbftool -so O2ASI001 radio_.nba
xda3nbftool -c -u NK.nba
xda3nbftool -c -u ms_.nba
xda3nbftool -c -u Radio_.nba
xda3nbftool -x ms_.nba ms_.nbf 0x20040522
xda3nbftool -x nk.nba nk.nbf 0x20040521
xda3nbftool -x radio_.nba radio_.nbf 0x20040523
del *.nba
Now save this file in the folder where you have extracted your rom images in this example it is XDAROM.
4. You need xda3nbftool.exe which i have uploaded, download it and copy it to your XDAROM folder.
5. Now simply run the bat file and u r done.
6. Connect your device with the usb and run BaUpgradeUt.exe file in the folder XDAROM.
that it you r done!
enjoy
jeet
thanx a tonne jeet...
hey jeet,
seriously thanx to u for providing the operator id as I didnt have it so I couldn't upgrade that xdaIIs. and overall that set was of my brother-in-law. his mood was really upset when his phone got stuck in bootloader mode. finally it was done today and u should have seen his face when his phone started. my jiju's really thankful.
-thanx jeet...
happy new yr
Dead MDA III
Hello... I have a T-Mobile (UK) MDA III which I managed to break by trying to update the firmware.
Now it is stuck in Bootloader mode! I have tried re-flashing the O2 XDA IIs firmware, but it still does not work (Operator Code Error).
Does anyone know of a way to re-flash this unit with the very latest code?
Many thanks
after I've edit the rom of Wm6 , it'll auto off at slashscreen after flash
please correct me if anything wrong ..
here's my steps :
HTC64 Extended ROM Tool , decode the rom and then...
prepare_imgfs.exe nk.fat -nosplit
viewimgfs imgfs_raw_data.bin
BuildImgfs
set _FLATRELEASEDIR=.
rgucomp -o dump\default.hv -nologo > default.rgu
rgucomp -o dump\user.hv -nologo > user.hv
then I've added other wince.nls and fonts in "dump" directory .
and edit default.rgu , user.hv by ultraedit . added "REGEDIT4" at the first line , added some lines on initflashfiles.dat.
then repack :
copy default.rgu boot.rgu
set _FLATRELEASEDIR=.
rgucomp -b
attrib -s -r -h dump\default.hv
copy boot.hv dump\default.hv
attrib -s -r -h dump\user.hv
copy user.hv dump\user.hv
BuildImgfs
make_imgfs nk.fat -nosplit
use HTC64 Extended ROM Tool encode again . and flash .
any problems in these step ? Please correct me , Thanks alot !!

yap, i get errors too
same here..
Ive narrowed it down to the OEM folder, however im not sure what the exact issue is. Ive just replaced the OEM stuff with my own from "V10 Roller". Remember to add os.nb.payload into theROM folder or you will get an error when the insert program is run.
Also getting exceptions, tried replacing the OEM folder with a known good one but it's still happening. Any suggestions?

Thanks to mrvanx's hint, I compared each OEM directories with my old kitchen tools. Then I found some stuff is missing in 'OEM\OEM_Lang_0409' directory.
So I copied my old stuff into it, then Error was gone.
Edit:
Well, I found what the problem is. the 'initflashfiles.dat' is missing in 'OEM\OEM_Lang_0409' directory. If there is 'initflashfiles.dat' even if it is 0 bytes, then this problem is solved.
I dont want to sound dumb here, but where can i get the os.nb.payload file?

Not a stupid question at all....
..download a known working rom based on 19209 (theres a few around)....to get os.nb.payload from it do these following things:
(using the programs in the TOOLS folder in this kitchen)
get the os.nb from the RUU_Signed.nbh file using nbhtool (in TOOLS/HTOOLS)
split the os.nb file into os.nb.payload and os.nb.extra using:
"nbsplit -hermes os.nb" on the command line. (the nbsplit.exe must be in the same dir as os.nb before you do it).
DONE.....slap os.nb.payload into the ROM folder when uve done it.
i've tried to updated my kitchen. fiuh... very hard work. my connection was bad. God help me
Help!
Hello!
Give me please - very confused: (
Downloading kitchen, treasure initflashfiles.dat in OEM_Lang_0409, taking the OS.NP.PAYLOAD from PDACorner V9, run BuildNB.bat

Yet more problems. There seems to be issues with some of the programs in the kitchen.

Try a different os.nb.payload fromanother ROM. The one bundled with pandora beta 9 works fine.

GUIDE
Post 1: nbhTool
Post 2: nbTools
Post 3: binTools
----------------------------------------------------------------
nbhTool 0.2 beta with SOURCE
AKA: Old nbh tools does not support new WP7 HTC device any more, so i made a new tool - nbhTool.
UPDATE 0.2 beta: 11.10.05
fixed some bugs
open source!!!!!
maybe someone can make a GUI one!
==================================================
UPDATE 0.1 beta: 11.09.22
added nbh split to nbhMerge so rename it to nbhTool
script now support '#' to make a note and Blank lines won't be error
added some functions
fix some bug
NOTE: it won't support script file of last version, just split a nbh file and you'll get a new scrpit.
Usage:
#Merge a nbh file use Script file:
nbhTool <Script>
e.g. nbhTool Mozart.txt
#Split a nbh file and create a Script file:
nbhTool -split <nbhFile> <Script>
e.g. nbhTool -split RUU.nbh Mozart.txt
NOW: i think it'll support all HTC WP7 Device, i test it with HTC HD7 & HTC Mozart Mango shipped Rom.
This tool is compiled by MinGW, so it can run without any runtime lib.Just test it and have fun, if any bugs just pm me.
nbTools - Split & Merge OS.NB Tools
nbSplit 0.2 beta - Split OS.NB File
if you used htcRIE to split a os.nb, i will tell you this tool is working in a different way.it just get BIN files only without addon bits from os.nb, so it only works with our tools to modify.
you can use this tool to get BIN Files from os.nb
USAGE:
nbSplit <OS.NB File>
Example:
nbSplit os.nb
Changelog:
0.1 beta first release version
0.2 beta fix a bug on split imgfs partition
Note:
this tool is only supported Roms of the 1st generation HTC WP7 Device and HTC HD2.
Tips:
just Drop the os.nb to nbSplit.exe can split os.nb directly.
nbSplit 0.2beta.zip
--------------------------------------------------
BINInsert 0.2 alpha - Insert BIN Files to OS.NB
Now it works, but not full functions, only support partitions below:
LOGO, BLDR, DPP, SLDR1, SLDR2, NK, IMGFS
Info:
For BINInsert 0.2 alpha
solved imgfs.bin file size must < 313.25M and i found a bug of nbSplit!
i will update BINInsert & nbSplit when i go back home tonight!
Still waiting someone who knows os.nb format well to help me solve my last 2 problem:
1.how to rebuild the last 2 blocks of IMGFS partition
2.how to rebuild the block right after LOG blocks in partition start
but tools can be used now, i just want my tool better
For HD2
maybe it'll work but not test now, some bits is different, so i'm not sure!
USAGE:
BINInsert -L <LOGO.BIN File> <OS.NB File> <New OS.NB File>
BINInsert -B <BLDR.BIN File> <OS.NB File> <New OS.NB File>
BINInsert -D <DPP.BIN File> <OS.NB File> <New OS.NB File>
BINInsert -S1 <SLDR1.BIN File> <OS.NB File> <New OS.NB File>
BINInsert -S2 <SLDR2.BIN File> <OS.NB File> <New OS.NB File>
BINInsert -N <NK.BIN File> <OS.NB File> <New OS.NB File>
BINInsert -I <IMGFS.BIN File> <OS.NB File> <New OS.NB File>
Example:
BINInsert -L LOGO.BIN OS.NB OS-new.NB
BINInsert -N NK.BIN OS.NB OS-new.NB
BINInsert -I IMGFS.bin OS.NB OS-new.NB
Changelog:
0.1 beta - first release version
0.2 beta - add DPP & IMGFS partition insert functions
BINInsert 0.2alpha.zip

Hi,
I was able to decompress de logo and charge.bmp, edited both BMP with GIMP2.0 but when I start compress WPBinaryTool crashes.
If I do not make any changes to the bmp files WPBinaryTool works.
Anyone else tried this?
Thanks for the tool.

Simple way is: Edit logo.bmp file which was generated when you decompress. Eg: Open that logo.bmp by paint application, then edit it.
Great work! Thanks for that!
But I'm looking for a way to "implant" my newly made LOGO.bin (with my own Logo's in it) into os.nb...How can I achieve that?
Thanks!

you can send your bmp file to my email [email protected]
those crash is caused by the deference between Windows Bitmap Image format and your GIMP2.0.
It works with GIMP. But when you save it, you have to choose "Advanced Options" and then you have to choose "24 Bit", because Windows Phone 7 needs this setting. But I haven't found a way to implant the selfmade LOGO.bin into my os.nb...

Looks cool.
So imagine I copy a registry key to my clipboard, does this regedit command capture it and open directly ? I checked, it only opens registry. Wonder if this MJ snippet would work in RT.
http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/38208
FYI, I don't prefer to kill-explorer like that, I think some settings that are not finalized until logoff can be lost when doing so, so instead I just logoff. But to each his own.
You can also change the position setting and the flyout will move to top or bottom of your menu. Make change in same key as the muiverb.
Code:
[FONT=monospace]
[/FONT][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\Tools]
"MUIVerb"="Tools"
"SubCommands"="regedit.Tools;Open Admin Cmd here.Tools;Open Cmd Here.Tools;Files Extensions.Tools;Hidden Files.Tools;Restart Explorer.Tools"
"Icon"="C:\\Windows\\tools.ico"
"Position"="Top"
I forget the trick to add an extra divider line.
EDIT: I've never been able to get more then 12 subcommands even with nested flyouts, if anyone knows how I am all ears.

DIT: I've never been able to get more then 12 subcommands even with nested flyouts, if anyone knows how I am all ears.

tbh the reason i didnt put a position in is i couldnt decide where i wanted it and where it was worked with the rest of the stuff in my context.
as for restarting explorer i run in testmode 24/7 so after i remove the watermarks i just restart explorer rather then logging off. its also helpful if explorer decides to lock up.
well i was bored so i added the option to choose position to it

That sounds like you have to do it every reboot. Are the mui files protected in RT and we are unable to edit the watermark permanently ?
If I write a snip to add powershell run-as admin would you add it to your Tool™

not at every boot once its done its done but i added it as it was more for when i do fresh installs, im adding it in now
edit one
i was able to get the admin cmd to work without the need of the extra files so those have been removed. i will be uploading it in a few min
edit two
new ver is uploaded, i added a ver number to it to help me keep track of it. you will have to run the uninstall part in the old one first before running the install on this as i have removed some unneeded stuff

That's a different way of doing it. Lately for elevation most people are using APPCOMPATFLAGS or an inline elevator script. Had never seen an example using just "ExplorerCommandHandler" and "ImpliedSelectionModel" settings before.

Does that only work on newer builds, I searched my W7x64 registry for that canonical GUID (the powershell one) didn't come up with anything. Where did you find it.

i found it in a program that adds items to the context menu but when it added powershell it would crash explorer so i used it as a base and started messing with it until it worked without crashing explorer(fun times). im not sure if it works in windows 7 as im on 8.1
Understood, not available in W7, likely only 8.0 and up. I find it here in W8.1.
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BF0AC53F-D51C-419F-92E3-2298E125F004}]
@="Open Powershell as Admin Command"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BF0AC53F-D51C-419F-92E3-2298E125F004}\InProcServer32]
@=hex(2):25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,00,6f,00,6f,00,74,00,25,\
00,5c,00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,73,00,68,00,\
65,00,6c,00,6c,00,33,00,32,00,2e,00,64,00,6c,00,6c,00,00,00
"ThreadingModel"="Apartment"
Maybe can even use the GUID list of control panel items the same way.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee330741(v=vs.85).aspx
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\OAPS.Tools]
"ImpliedSelectionModel"=dword:00000001
"Icon"="imageres.dll,-5373"
"ExplorerCommandHandler"="{BF0AC53F-D51C-419F-92E3-2298E125F004}"
@="Admin Pshell Here"
and I remembered how to do the divider line trick.
Code:
"SubCommands"="regedit.Tools;|;OACh.Tools;OCH.Tools;|;OAPS.Tools;|;FE.Tools;HF.Tools;|;RE.Tools"
Think you can get rid of the Restart_Explorer.bat with this.
http://www.robvanderwoude.com/condexec.php
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\RE.Tools]
"Icon"="C:\\Windows\\explorer.exe"
"MUIVerb"="Restart Explorer"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\RE.Tools\command]
@="taskkill /f /im explorer.exe && start explorer.exe"
and this could toggle file extensions, without the .vbs
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\FE.Tools]
"Icon"="C:\\Windows\\file.ico"
"MUIVerb"="Files Extensions"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\FE.Tools\command]
@="start /wait /b powershell -command \"$check = (Get-ItemProperty -Path 'registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Advanced' -Name 'HideFileExt').HideFileExt;if ($check -eq 0){Set-ItemProperty -Path 'registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Advanced' -Name 'HideFileExt' -Value 1} else {Set-ItemProperty -Path 'registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Advanced' -Name 'HideFileExt' -Value 0}\""

tried both of those with no luck, the restart explorer one made a cmd window pop up real fast, all i could see was it said invalid something. the file extension one didnt do anything
i would love to be able to get rid of the scripts

On the file extension, I forget the refresh. Here is the snip, it goes somewhere near the end. FYI, I need rewrite it registry > cmd > powershell escape character safe.
I want to be sure it's just the refresh causing the problem and that the registry still got toggled, proving the powershell did run in the background and was not stopped by execution policy. Will you confirm by running the old script and manually hitting refresh.
Code:
;[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('System.Windows.Forms');[System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys]::SendWait('{F5}');

So you are on 8.1 RT, with powershell policy enabled and it still doesn't work.
Been bing'ing around for RT Powershell Limitations and it seems Microsoft might be the reason it doesn't work. Don't have RT hardware to test, cannot find a VM emulator either.
