Nothing really anything out there for this. I use Sprite Backup, but it's only good for the ROM you are using. The other method would be to build your own cab. It will take a lot of reading and trial/error.
I've used this program to build some simple CAB's.
I'm not entirely sure how you would do it, but if I had to guess, you would have to unpack every CAB file and then rebuild everything back into a custom CAB. I think it's easier to just keep a list of the CABs installed and then one by one put them back on.
Good luck...cwh

I'm using CabBatchInstall written by helloworld1.
If you additionally install XperiaTweak2 and remove the security-warning before the installations, this program really does a great job and it makes it much easier to install a number of *.cab's.

Thanks for sharing de Wolfe
This little app is easyer than "UC" !!
will test

Beta testing help - multiple cab install, settings backup, etc

Just that wanted to ask what ppl have found to be best ways to install all your favourite apps/settings if u are changing roms offten?
I just started recently and have tested some 3 or 4 roms now, but already i find that doing all my customizing and app install is tedious, so i was looking for some method to make it easier.
* i have seen an app that could roll multiple cabs into one - that would make reinstalling all cabs at once after new rom easier, but i cant find the app any more. any ideas on this one?
* backing up rom differences after doing customizations - what app could handle that? propositions?
If we can work some method to do this fast and easy we would get a lot more beta testers hence a lot faster development cycle could be achieved. (=

There are no shortcuts my friend. Some apps are installed to main memory and some to storage card, when installng apps there is interaction involved, therefore no universal solution.
Look here - you can integrate the new sys folders (apps) by building your rom in the kitchen (klick it on). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317866
You can do a backup with spb backup. This way you can keep all installed programs and changes. You can restor your backup in different roms too but you have to be aware that this would mess up a few thins.
Tryed this http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/pocketpcinstallationcreator.shtml one out - managet to create install with multiple cab files - so far so good.
But when i installed this merged install on my wm5 emulator it ended up adding links to cab files in programms folder - so much for instalation - useless.
Gues the search goes on.
Make your own extended rom with all your cabs in, this will do the trick. Its quite easy - its not like cooking a rom - i could do a simple tutorial if people wish - it only requires 2 apps
Meschle - yes, please, a tutorial for extrom making would be good, as i am still a bit green to start cooking roms - extrom would be nice way to start i suppose.

That is a super solution! I would love it!
Hey guys one downside to ext rom way - when installing cabs it does not give you option where to install (main memory or storage card) so everything installs to main memory.
This is ok for the programs you normally install there and registry entries. You can make a new cab that installs directly to storage card but that is a different story
OK, now i am a bit confused. As i understand there is a ROM memory on Artemis(128MB) which is divided in multiple areas - IPL1, IPL2, SPL, Splash, Radio, OS, ExtRom.
This ROM memory is writable by way of flashing. There is also storage area(not microSD) in device and operative memory.
So, as i unterstand it, putting apps in ExtROM is a pure saving, cus ur storage memory is not wasted.
Do i understand it correctly?
With the artemis rom, if you omit extended rom in your nbh building you get more storage memory (an addition of roughly the size of the omited ext rom) Likewize if you include extended rom then you loose equivalent memory from storage - so there is no advantage to having apps (i.e executables) in extended rom but for convenience sake to have cabs and settings can be useful. I suggest keeping extended rom small (2mb) so you dont loose much storage space.

For people who do not have an extended ROM - would'nt it be similar if they kept all the Cabs in 2577 Folder in the Storage Card with Autoexec and config files to execute them sequentially? I remember doing something like this when I was using the XDA IIs - but then now -
In my case, I rarely need to install anything except TomTom and Fullscreenkeyboard from SPB. The rest - I peek into the Cab using WinCE Cab Manager, then export the contents and now have made one big Cab (appx 4MB in size) with all my registry entries, tweaks, executables, shortcuts and copying relevant files into directories.
That way I execute only three cabs after a Hard reset and moreorless everyting is in place.
Yes dev - i used to have that in my orange spv - an autorun.exe in \2577 folder - last time i tried didnt work as i wanted - but i agree worth looking into.
With the ext_rom - the purpose was to add one for those that dont have.
Ok, was trying a quite a few roms that i had today, extracted em, but did not get the extrom.nb )=
Tried to open os.nb with winimage, but it kept saying something about wrong fat etc.
Is the extrom.nb different form os.nb and other *.nb? Why cant winImage open other nb files? Or is there something else i am missing?
Also, tiried SKtracker(didnt find any free app) demo - made snapshots before and after installing apps, then tried to export relevant registery subtrees.
That brings me to that there is no import functionality in phm regedit, but i found other free regedit app called TRE which can import/export edit etc.
Maybe this TRE tool is worth including in roms, if any cookers are reading.
Any better way to hack registery?

I mentioned this on another thread, but I discovered that FdcSoft's understated Task Manager v2.8 has a supperb regedit built in. It does everything that PHM Regedit does, but it can export and import really easily, just like Windows regedit. As meschle pointed out, PHM's is faster, but I still use the bloated Task Manager just because its regedit; and it also has lots of other stuff that comes handy on occasion.
Oh, great! So many stuff to fiddle with in meschle's PremiumPlus rom that I must have missed this one.

[TUT]ROM for everyone (video tutorial to cook the ROM )

Hi all
I was looking for the way to cook my own ROM. There is a heaps of info for a Kiser but not a Diamond. I had decided to start a thread that will show and explain in plain language how to do it on the Diamond. The aim is to have perfectly clean ROM without any unwanted applications or tweaks. The ROM will only contain bare minimum to run PDA. Everything else can be installed with cab files. Also registry tweaks can be applied after installation.
What is more important I want this thread to be a simple to follow guide to cook a ROM so everyone can make one for themself. Since I’m not an expert I welcome any help from anyone.
I had managed to cook my 1st ROM. I had removed some applications without modifying anything else.
I have tested it and it worked ok. However you perform it on your own risk and I take no responsibility if you stuff it up. Do not remove everything at once. Remove 2-3 application and see if it works. If yyou unsure just leave it alone. When you are confident you can remove the rest of apps. Also if you want to remove Opera and TouchFlo you need to change a setup files so lets leave it for now.
You need a Kitchen and the ROM file.
Video Tutorial (rigt click and Save target as)
Extract kitchen files directly to C drive (not to desktop as shown on the screen shot)
IMAGE
Extract rom files into BaseROM folder in the kitchen.
IMAGE
Open !BEGIN and choose option 1
IMAGE
Just follow the prompts and press ENTER when asked. When you get to screen below just wait till asked to press ENTER again. This might take a while.
IMAGE
When you arrive to this screen
IMAGE
your rom preparations are complete.Hit the ENTER to close window.
Go to Kitchen folder and you notice that rom files and packages are extracted.
IMAGE
To remove unwanted applications from rom look into OEM and SYS folders. You need to delete all folders related to paticular application. (create separate folder and move all packages there instead deleting. Later on you can convert them to .cab files and install them if needed)
IMAGE
If you have some cab files and would like to add them into the rom you will need THIS application. Just start it, make sure that Remodule option is deselected, open cab file and program will create new folder containig packagage file. Make shure that PACKAGE_Diamond_ is in front of the filename. For example if you converted TomTom cab you should rename it to PACKAGE_Diamond_TomTom. Now copy the folder to OEM folder in the kitchen. Repeat process till you add everything you would like to have in the ROM.
When you delete/add everything you want start !Cook file
IMAGE
This will start OS building application. Just hit a green button and wait till it finishes. It will create os-new.nb file needed later. Close window on top (never close a DOS window) and rom building application will start.
IMAGE
Fill all the info as shown on the screenshot.
IMAGE
Use apropriate version rom (ie FR, ME etc...). As for the system select os-new.nb which is in the kitchen folder. Also you can select boot images and radios but for now we leave as it is. When ready hit Build ROM button.
Name your new rom (anything you want).
IMAGE
And hit SAVE.
A while later you should see screen below
IMAGE
Hit OK. Wait till everything finishes. Just press ENTER when asked. On the end you get message that rom is ready to flash. Hitting ENTER closes a window. All you need to do is flash it to your device.
PS Everyone is welcome to help. I need information how to update Framework and OS and where I can download it. Please post suggestions, registry tweaks and links to updated cab files for the apps removed from the rom. I will make a video tutorial after I have all info needed. I want to make easy for everyone who wants to have personalized rom.
Credits: Thank you to all who provided these great tools and these that helped in this thread.
EDIT: If you manage to create your own ROM please do not flood forum with new ROMs (unless it is something we never seen). There are experienced cooks that created really nice ROMs. Lets keep this forums clean.
There is a thread in this forum which has a simple to use kitchen. Using it is just easy as Steps 1-2-3.. But it doesn't work for some ROMs, atleast for me. By far, it is a great tool simplified in batch files.
Are you using the same tool or your own customised one?
Regards,
Carty..

Could do my... i just finished my one yesterday a perfect clean rom not staffed wth litter....i used the surface kitchen and based on ce 0s 5.2 20273 wwe a bit customized the manila that's all....
Is it a clean ROM with most apps removed? Do you want to share please.
Good initiative!
I really want to know what is the true performance of the Diamond, running it with just the minimum required.
Even when disabling TF3D and other extras, I find it so slow compared to other WM phones having less MHz... I just don't understand why.
Uploading my ROM now. It is slow. I will post the link tomorrow.
Just a tip, A clean rom is very good if you going to stick with what you got in the rom and possible a few otther apps by cabs, If your going to installed the same apps which are in a full rom then the clean rom with those apps in will make you lose valuable storage space rather than them cooked in and sometimes device will start to feel sluggish but it all depends on how many cabs youre going to re-install.
TIps , there are certain apps which are cooked in doesnt take up any storage space but if install by cab you will then use up valuable space.

Really? Dutty, could you please explain that a little bit further? Don't we have a set amount of storage space? i.e. If you cook some apps in, then you lose some of that space. If you add them later, you lose some of that space. But at least you could uninstall them.
So please correct me if I have misunderstood and I'm only guessing, but are you saying there is a part of the ROM that is only available to the OS 'image', and cannot be accessed in the normal way once the device is up and running? And are you using that space to install some apps? If so, how much space in the 'OS image' part of the ROM is available for that purpose? I would like to start cooking my own ROM's, but I don't want to waste ANY storage space that I am not forced to.
I would really appreciate if you could shed a little light on that for me! Cheers
Thanks, this is great.

bascally there some programs which ar cooked in for e.g Remote desktop, If cook this in its 1.45mb I think, I will only use up only about .45mb and save 1mb of storage space, If i install this by cab I would use up all of the 1.45mb storage space
Perfect
I was hoping/loocking fopr a thread like this! BUT
Could anybody explaine to me how to dump a rom?
The one I am using right now is pretty good and I want to modify
it and loose all the unwanted programs...
But what happens to all the .cab programs I have installed at the moment?
Do they "get dumped" as well so I can preserve them as OEM? Or do I only dump the "base ROM"?
And what about the Reg tweaks? Do they get dumbed aswell?
Thanks for the help...

And to top this, apps that are cooked run faster than an installed cab.
But for some, a ultra light rom works becouse they have not ,uch progs to use, and need to install less cabs.
gr.
Just a short notice, lolek:
I see you've extracted the kitchen to your profile folder.
You'd better extract it to the root of your drive, like C: or D:
batch files have a tendency to disliking spaces in file/folder names as well as names longer than 8+3.

exactly also if you look at some of the benchmarks as well the lite roms are not much better or even some of the full roms are faster, so its all about what u really need in the rom, if your going to install everything back in your rom with cabs, its better to go with a full rom
Thanks for the input. This is what I was hoping for. The aim is to have simple tutorial for anybody to create their own ROMs. I'm off to work tonight but I'll update 1st post tomorrow.
I have updated 1st post. It shows how to convert cab files to packages and add them to the rom. I apologize for the slow progress but I'm still learning myself.
I have asked around how to update framework and OS. As soon as I get reply and test it I’ll post it here.
I know there many experienced cooks so please don’t be shy and help create this guide.
When guide is complete I’ll make movie showing whole process.

[UTIL] SPBbackup2 how to change ROM and re-instal everything in one clic !

Hello all,
you're like me and love to try severals Diamond ROMs on this forum ?
You're tired of re-instal every apps, wifi and other settings after ROM upgrade, me too !
I wasn't a SPB backup user, I used Sprite backup.
A few days ago, I read on a french forum ( before I forget, THANKS Bepe to make fabulous french ROMs ! ) about some new modes in SPB backup 2 software :
ROM and Device Upgrade Modes !!!
What ? Is it possible ?
So last night I try it, I have done a full backup of the official HTC_FRA_1.93.406.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05 ROM with all my favorites ( S2U2, TF3D config, Second Today, Ringo, Resco explorer and registry, Schaps advanced config, batti ) and many others ) apps and settings.
Just after flash to 0.98 french Bepe ROM, I restore the auto exe backup and....
Dream come true !
ALL ( and really all ) my apps and settings are back on this new ROM, the only thing you have to do is to re-organise the windows start menu as you want ( this is the only setting who has not be restored for me ).
I don't have another HTC so I can't try the " device upgrade mode " who sounds very interesting too.
If you install on the PC, you can also browse a backup to take every file you want in it, very useful !
I don't know how they do that but they did it !
Infos and download : http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en
P.S : Excuse me for my english " learn by myself by reading english forums " you know, I'm french and french people speak.... french lol
Great ! Seems to be interesting !
Over way to do (more tricky) is to create the famous SDConfig.txt, add all programs you want to install (and try to find any exe programs in cab ... snif), and create a registry cab too
So when you install your new rom, it will install the software (be carefull of not installing already include cab)
I think I will try this cause I'm really tired of spending lot's of time to set back my conf...
Hello " compatriote ",
I like your blog, add it to my favorites.
Making a registry cab seems to be hazardous and dangerous for the phone, there is huge registry differences between ROMs.
And SPBbackup 2 doesn't just restore your apps, but all your settings too.
For exemple Wifi wep key, bluetooth pairing, second today plugins, all are working after the first boot, so you can flash a ROM and restore everything in 15 minutes.
With official ROM, I have 17 Mos free storage, now with Bepe 0.98, 62 Mos, waouh !!!
Mixed feelings with the backup/restore
Hi 2 all!
I took a look at the program.
I have mixed feelings with the restore.
The program also backups the registry. When I use an other rom and restore the datas the registry entrys will also be restored..
I don't know if this is the goal.
What do other users think?
br,
Chris
Looks very interesting if the registry backup is not an issue on different roms (i think that it shouldn't be a real problem if you "just" upgrade the version of a rom)
Sprite backup also has upgrade mode, which I heard is not so good, and caused lots of problems.
SDconfig.txt is part of the UC compliant, which is working - as far as I know - only o Bepe's ROMs. Other Diamond ROMs does not support it. Am I wrong?
beware!
1.you had ROM X---made a backup including system files and registry for ROM X and it includes also some clutter and unwanted files that you accumulated after installing and uninstalling progs and so on...you know what i mean..
2.you are flashing ROM Y----it has a better, improved system files, new registry witch is cleaner, more compact, tweaks all the works to make it better than the old one, ROM X
3. you are restoring the ROM x backup over the ROM Y !!!!
it might work but practically you went back from ROM Y to ROM X.
in my humble opinion backup-restore system function should be used only to restore on the same ROM. for example you installed a bad app and you have to hardreset. use yr backup and yr are set in under 10 minutes!
using backup from one ROM on an another ROM? don't think it is a good idea!

I don't know how it works but ROM Y don't become ROM X, as I said before, with HTC official ROM, I have 17 Mos free storage, now with Bepe 0.98, 62 Mos free, with all my apps. And the overall speed of the bepe ROM is present, fastest than the original one.
I don't think to use this solution for my " final " ROM and ultimate Diamond installation, I prefer start from scratch, but waiting for the ROM I'll keep in my phone forever ( perhaps Bepe 1.0 ), with SPB backup solution I can try severals ROMs and have my complete Diamond in few minutes with no bugs.
Many users don't want to flash and beta-test because of this and wait for the others opinions, with this solution, everyone can try and feedback more quickly.

that's the best way to do it. don't bring the "dirt" from the old home to the new one
I also like to start from scratch... installing my personal data after.
as Punch said to Judy "that's the way to do it"
I used spb backup2 for a while now and flashed a couple of roms with it, but i noticed that it doesnt change the registry of the new rom back to old backup one. at least not everything. i noticed that with my weathersetting that i did with WDE. also other reg hacks i did to the old rom wherent present in the new rom. so this programs good for me. only must look out that you dont install double cabs when the programs in your backup ar already in your new rom.

So, I wonder if your PPC was recognized by Active Sync as the old one...
I always have the problem that after installing a backup, active sync creates a horrible mess with double entries in outlook...

Create one cab file of many different cab files

Hey guys.
I am not very into the topic cabs, but is it possible to create one cab that installs all the cabs of my favourite applications ? This would make the post-flashing process much much easier.
Thanks in advance
Tobi
Cant be done man, sorry. You cant mass install like 5 cabs in one hit. All you can do is create a cab to extract 5 cabs to a location
You can get a program to install them consecutively after one another (like Sashimi), however as luckyluke1137, that's probably not possible. If it were, WIN CE CAB Manager would be your best bet for manipulating/playing with CABs.

What's the story with Sashimi? It looks like it's been pulled whenever it gets posted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392983) and I can't find a developer's website (Google failed me). Any ideas? I presume it's a paid app and the developer is prohibiting distribution...
okay thank you for your answers...unpacking the cabs to one folder is not nessecary because they are all in one folder on my sd card. Just thought if there was an easy opputunity to install all of them "one-click". but seems this is not possible.
Most rom are UC compliant and it's very easy to write a quick script to install all your favourite apps as part of the customising process just after the flash takes place.
I've a script to install a few apps and also to setup my email account. You can also do loads of other stuff to if you want to such as setting power settings etc.
Take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366337
thank you very much crankshaft. i will have a look at it. only have to find out if the roms i use (leos) are UC compatible. but this would be exaxtly what i was looking for !!!

No worries mate. Most roms are UC compliant, having said that though I've just seen that Dutty's forthcoming rom will not be but I'm sure he'll get round that eventually.
Hello,
its possible with commercial software or trialware. but it's time consuming because you have to extract each cab merge the install setting files merge the registry settings file then rebuild the cab test the cab etc... i have done it one but with uc it's not important enimore.
i suse this method only to incorporate custom settings in cabs file.
@ tylwith okay sounds very hard to do. i think i will stay with UC then. Even if i will test dutty´s new rom because it looks great

I tried to copy the whole registry from another rom and tried another oem and a lot of things but the wifi doesnt work
I've made a custom Connection Manager, but i think its not a problem, because i also dont see the wifi icon in the wrlsmgr.exe.
Thx for the help
I've tried everything:
-ported another xip/sys
-full oem, without my changes
-full sys without my changes
-copy the whole registry from another rom
-overwrite old sys files with the new ones
-searh rgu problems - i found nothing
-and a lot of other things
I hope, the downloaders will help me/us...
you can always just turn M2D off
it will still have the program files obviously, but it wont be activated so it will free up some RAM.
Just go to settings -> Today -> Items and deactivate TouchFlo and enable Windows Default

can u pls upload ur nbh file for build 20317
Now I made to a 23017-21928 hybrid, with my own customizations (i just cook for myself, because i think the other people doesnt like what i do for example: i delete Internet Explorer, i dont need m2d and these stuffs like this (i use ibrythill's WM7 with music, phone, clock, test, windows live and weather widgets)) If you think, i'll upload my beta version (with some bug, because ive got some problems with my oem and i extended it, so i started it from 0). I'll try to make it faster with more free memory.
I think I upload it tomorrow, now i go to sleep.
If someone will be intrested in my rom, i can upload that in some other localization, but i dont have much time.
Bye

i have 23016 nbh with m2d
i use hypercore to dump rom
after ddumping which files should be rmoved or tell me ur way of editing this nbh file
I think you cannot edit the dumped rom, because its protected, so it doesnt make packages what you can remove. These nbhs doesnt include the dsm files, because the storage (and program???) memory. You can make packages only by dsm files.
I never remake others' rom because these inculde what i dont need and it doesnt include what i need. - So with lot of learn you can make your own customized, ported rom. (ervius visual kitchen can help you). I learnt everything by myself, over google, just need some time (maybe some sleepless day ).
In one word: don't dump the nbh files, because you cannot You have to port a xip/sys and if you want, modify rgus, provxmls, muis, initflashfiles and others to make it comfortable.
Sorry for my English.
My rom is coming soon
