The method is based on the Rom Dump for Hermes with a little bit of modifications to suit KS20
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
Firstly, download the "itsutils tools" at:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=XdaUtils
Now let's start the process:
1. Unzip the contents of itsutils.zip on c:\itsutils
2. Connect your KS20 to PC using USB cable, and make sure ActiveSync is running
3. Start -> run -> cmd.exe
4. cd c:\itsutils
5. First we are going to find the device handles for all the flash partitions, using pdocread -l
c:\itsutils>pdocread.exe -l
221.88M (0xdde0000) DSK1:
| 1.25M (0x13f000) Part00
| 5.00M (0x500000) Part01
| 69.25M (0x4540000) Part02
| 146.38M (0x9260000) Part03
1.90G (0x79b00000) DSK2:
| 1.90G (0x79ae1200) Part00
STRG handles:
handle 05bba79a 1.90G (0x79ae1200)
handle 65dadd7e146.38M (0x9260000)
handle e5dc0512 69.25M (0x4540000)
handle c5d67fb6 5.00M (0x500000)
handle a5dc04ca 1.25M (0x13f000)

6. If you get the following errror, probably your device is application locked:
C:\itsutils>pdocread.exe -l
Copying C:\itsutils\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll
Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it is inuse?
try restarting your device, or restart ActiveSync.
Basically you have to modify this registry key, and then softreset using power button:
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies
valuename '00001001' was set to dword:2, change it to dword:1
dword: any thing other than 1 disallows unsigned
dword: 1 allows unsigned
7. Note: There are two ways to read each partition: pdocread -h 0xHANDLVALUE 0 0xSIZEVALUE diskimage.nb or pdocread -d storename -p partitionname StartValue LengthValue file.raw
We will use the second method for the next step.
Overview of flash partitions (just for your information, not a step)
FLASHDR STOREINFO 114.88M (0x72e0000) dev='FLASHDR' store='Microsoft Flash Disk'
nsect=39700 bpsect=200 free=0 maxpartsize=0
3.12M ( 0x31fc00) Part00 'BOOT' end= 18fe type=20 image update kernel partition (XIP), used while image updates
2.88M ( 0x2e0000) Part01 'RAWFS' end= 1700 type=23 regular kernel partition (XIP), used for normal OS boot
50.88M (0x32e0000) Part02 'imgfs.dll' end=19700 type=25 imgfs
58.00M (0x3a00000) Part03 'fatfsd.dll' end=1d000 type=04 user filesystem
EXT_FLA STOREINFO 10.00M (0xa00000) dev='EXT_FLA' store=''
nsect=5000 bpsect=200 free=0 maxpartsize=0
10.00M ( 0xa00000) PART00 'fatfsd.dll' end= 5000 type=04 extended rom
This does not include the IPL, splash and SPL.
8. Check that all the partition sizes reported by pdocread are correct:
c:\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part00 -b 0x800 -t
real nr of sectors: 638 - 1.25Mbyte, (0x13f000)
c:\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part01 -b 0x800 -t
real nr of sectors: 2560 - 5.00Mbyte, (0x500000)
c:\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part02 -b 0x800 -t
real nr of sectors: 35456 - 69.25Mbyte, (0x4540000)
Note the partition sizes (in brackets) for the next step. They may differ from device to device.
9. Now let's dump the first 3 partitions (coldboot kernel, base kernel and imgfs), use the sizes you found in the previous step.
c:\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part00 -b 0x800 0 0x13f000 Part00.raw
CopyTFFSToFile(0x0, 0x13f000, Part00.raw)
c:\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part01 -b 0x800 0 0x500000 Part01.raw
CopyTFFSToFile(0x0, 0x500000, Part01.raw)
c:\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part02 -b 0x800 0 0x4540000 Part02.raw
CopyTFFSToFile(0x0, 0x4540000, Part02.raw)
As the Part02.raw file is large, it will take a few mins, dw just wait and it will be done!!!
Note: Step 7 is not important, can be igorned!
Thanks....I got it
it seems that we have method for install english raw file
and we have this unbranded english version
http://rs75.rapidshare.com/files/126667462/DZ-KS20E-00-V10a-454-XX-APR-29-2008_0.zip
did any body try it???
Can i flash my cel with these extracted files?
I'm from brazil, and here we have the MS25 (KS20, almost the same hardware..)
and i have extracted this 3 files, and then extracted imgfs from part02.raw.. I compared the imgfs from my MS25 with a imgfs extracted from a germany's rom flash.bin.. and it maches in almost everything.. except about the sizes (germany dump folder is almost 2x of my rom's dump folder).
my question is.. for exemple: Can i edit the extracted files and re-flash on my phone with no problems? I really need to know this, because i don't wanna brick my phone.. We don't have oficial roms for emergency, LG Brasil is a kind of lazy and still not provide us the oficial ones..
thank's in advance..

bepe is making his new kitchen with smooth xip porting etc...
as for tools - they're for relocating modules - usually when you just cooking rom (not porting from other device) you should use g'reloc - that is enough.

what is inicio and relleno?
I've downloaded some other tools from a French forum and these include the 2 files.
My question is:
How do I successfully recreate my os.nb.base, imgfs.bin and os.nb.payload?
Do I really need these files?
My other question will be about the part0, 01, 02 and 03.
What should I do to use my own OS (and extract XIP) instead of using a RUU_signed.nbh from a downloaded ROM?
Okay.
I've found out that the part01 is XIP, part02 is imgfs.
Do I just need to rename them?
if you want to reconstruct using your dump
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337066
you can use the kaiser rom kitchen to rebuild the rom from your raw dumps
I've read that thread, as well as this one.
http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/How_to_dump_and_reconstruct_a_Hermes_ROM
When I try imgfstodump part02.raw, I get an "Part02.raw is not a valid IMGFS file. Exiting" error.
would also minimize the use of other downloaded roms.
So now, what want to do, is extract the contents of my Part02.raw (imgfs) partition, make some changes, rebuild all my .raw to a .nbh file.
ya you cant extract part02.raw directly
what you do is follow the thread i linked exactly
it will reconstruct the .nbh file for you
and then using the same kitchen u can extract the rom from the .nbh and edit and rebuild
hi guys,
i have a simple question. I only need to replace a particular file in Bepe's latest rom, namely the wince.nls file. How do i go about doing it?
is there some form of nbh editor where i can use to directly replace the file?
thanks.

Yes. Search for "HTC Rom Image Editor". You'll find a special thread for tool created by AnDim but I don't know whether it will completely work with our Device Diamond.

thanks for the advice. i did tried this but opening up the nbh with the editor, i couldnt find the file "wince.nls" at all. I tried adding my wince.nls into the rom but i could not save. there is an error while saving.

I've read that thread, as well as this one.
http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/How_to_dump_and_reconstruct_a_Hermes_ROM
When I try imgfstodump part02.raw, I get an "Part02.raw is not a valid IMGFS file. Exiting" error.
would also minimize the use of other downloaded roms.
So now, what want to do, is extract the contents of my Part02.raw (imgfs) partition, make some changes, rebuild all my .raw to a .nbh file.

Remember what I told you? It's simple and fast. The thread at Modaco is a good reference to "why is the donor ROM needed".

ERROR: ITReadDisk : read 00000000 bytes - The parameter is incorrect.
When i try to read the partition sizes... They don't match with the ones i get in the beginning.. i guess this why I'm getting the error.. Anybody know what to do ?!?!
Please Help...
Have you copied the itsutils.dll to your windows folder on your diamond?
Yes i did.. But still no use... Do i need to HARD-SPL before the dump ?!?
No you don't.
What version of activesync are you using?
Check if any firewall isn't blocking.
Im using the 4.5 version of activ sync
How do i check for the firewall !?
Hello,
before I flash my Diamond with a ROM by the chefs or maybe a ROM made by myself I want to backup the original ROM (T-Mobile GER) for warranty reasons. T-Mobile Germany isn't providing any ROM updates yet, so I have to build my own T-Mobile stock ROM.
I already dumped the ROM after making a hard-reset to bring everything back to factory defaults:
Code:
D:\ROMdump>pdocread -l

Now cooking a dumped ROM requires following files:
RUU_signed.nbh
Part01.raw
Part02.raw
My question is: What is the RUU_signed.nbh file I need in this case?
I guess it has to be the Provider Stock-SPL. If so, can I use the dumped SPLdumped.nb (after converting it to nbh)?
And will the ROM be all original then? Original in a way that I even don't have to Hard-SPL my device to flash it with that dumped and recooked ROM?
I found this little piece of information nowhere, so thank you for your help
Im replying to this so the thread thread stays up top, more chances of someone seeing it!
in the same situation with the O2 UK rom!
come on lads
thanks for creating the thread vogonj
Hello again,
as there is no stock ROM, stock SPL, stock whatsoever for my MDA Compact IV from T-Online Germany, I have to build my own stock ROM.
T-Mobile Germany has absolutely nothing in stock. And I don't expect anything within the next year I don't know why they don't care for their customers
That's why I need your help.
I already dumped the ROM and SPL and got these files:
Part01.raw
Part02.raw
Part03.raw
Part04.raw
SPLdumped.nb
Building a ROM from dump requires the following files:
RUU_signed.nbh
Part01.raw
Part02.raw
Question:
What has to be the content of the RUU_signed.nbh file? Is it the SPL?
If so, can I use the SPLdumped.nb from my dump (after converting to .nbh, of course)? Will the result be a stock ROM then?
Assume that the device is all original out of the box, nothing flashed so far.
Thanks for your help
i've been looking all over, and i cant find it...only the Dopod rom which doesnt work with the hebrew language support...
can anyone point me to where i can get the original HTC SHIP WWE rom?
thanks!
Someone with a HTC Cavalier has to dump their ROM using the tools in this forum and post the dumped RAW files.
Code:
You will need itsutils (http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html) from itsme:

thanks, but i'm not sure how i progress from here...any help?
thanks.
i think, that you can use very good ookba's ROM with english interface and edit et9 input for your language, there are many how-to's on this forum and internet, even some cabs with many languages preinstalled

There's no WWE HTC ROM for Cavalier on that site. As it was mentioned to get that ROM it has to be dumped first.
Cheers
Here I'll upload all Cavalier ROMs I find in web
