Hello Everybody,
Made this thread so that there be a common point where you can find all the Roms either cooked or upgraded ones. I would like all of you to get involved and use this thread and paste the links of all the Roms along with their snapshots so that who so ever flash a new rom knows how it looks.
Hope this thread be a useful one for all of us.

Where is the vote? Not to hijack the thread, but it's known that we're going to go 6 months without anything better than the HD2 from HTC meanwhile LG, Samsung and Acer are pumping out WM phones yet there's no XDA support so they will inevitably lack the same base support as we continue to salivate over HTC and it continues to pump out Android phones...We'd all be better off if XDA moved with the industry.

Awesome that you were able to dump the eXpo rom, but we can't do anything with just a dump. We had this problem with the Incite. We had to wait for an official rom because the way LG makes their roms. The format is a .dz file and there are parts of this file that is needed to cook a rom which is not found with a dump.
We would need the actual dz file in order to deconstruct it, dump the contents, cook, and then reconstruct the dz file. Without the dz file we can't flash.

Right the dz file will be helpful but this is nice for just hacking up the phone we have now or porting the apps as well. With the dump there can be driver hacks made and all kinds of other fun goodies its a start...

But we dont even know yet if we will need one we need an spl dump so we can check to see if it needs a signed image or not
This is def. very exciting and I very much look forward to seeing things getting ported from this phone to all of our other WM phones!! So we can have pieces of this phones apps/programs running in our phones to play with!!
GREAT JOB NOW LET THE FUN BEGIN
meh
that was faster than I expected. Great work!

Just because you can't do anything with a dump because it doesn't give you all the stuff you need, doesn't mean it isn't useful for other purposes.
Apps porting, driver research, etc. I am personally not interested in flashing the LG Expo (mainly because I don't have one) but I was in need of the dumps.
So... shortsighted much?
Wonderful News
This is great!!!
I tried to dump my LG IQ which is the Canadian version of this phone, but didnt work too long at it, and I fail because the phone said device not ready in the dumping process.
If you want to PM me with how you did it, and give me a bit of advice, I would be willing to try again.
The Telus and AT&T versions are slightly different, one difference being that the Telus phone has a slightly newer version of windows ce on it.
Telus 5.2.21868.5.0.69
AT&T 5.2.21749..don't know the rest
Awesome job......
Installing this CAB on your phone and rebooting should get rid of that pesky error:
http://www.jongma.org/tmp/MultASync_Security_Policies.cab
(Taken from MultASync project)
Aside from that, it's just pdocread / raw dump as usual ...
For an example of the commands, see:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501871
As a fellow user of the LG Expo, would be more than happy to help out as I can.

Sorry to say, it didn't work for me
tried installing the cab, and tried editing the reg manually to the values in the cab....
any other ideas?
Not really... all we did is hook up the device correctly, install that cab, excute the commands and we had a dump ...
Thank you Chainfire! Telus IQ ROM dump
OK I am now feeling like an idiot.
Yes, the disk on the IQ is called DSK1: not FLASHDR
Yes, this cost me being at least two weeks later than I needed to be.
Yes, I goter dun tonight....

Easy mistake to make: but rest assured, everyone only makes this mistake but once, and probably every dumper once made it
Sorry, I should of been a bit clearer, but when I said we can't do anything with just a dump I was referring to cooking. Someone had mentioned seeing custom roms soon so I was just pointing out that that wouldn't be possible until we get a base rom to work with. If I confused anyone it was not my intention.

Since your question has already been answered, I will not put it in the Q&A thread. However, (and for future reference), please ask all your questions there. Do not open a new thread simply to ask something. Opening new threads should be done to contribute to the site (apps, roms, kitchens, tips, fixes, skins, etc). Thanks.

** MOD EDIT **
This is obviously big news. Keep in mind this "ROM" is NOT flashable to any of the current devices we know of. NONE. You also can't dump this with the current tools we have at our disposal so, NO, we can not make WP7 ROMs based on this. Some great minds are already working on decrypting the format of this ROM and I'm sure information to that effect will be posted in the thread when that happens.
Until then, please refrain from asking if this is compatible with your phone (it's not!) or when it's going to be ported to "X" device. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation
Hey guys
This .nbh is unsigned, previous HTC NBH images were all signed. I made a new version of NBHImageTool to work with a WP7 unsigned .nbh, it will dump and rebuild.
Here's a mirror of the original posted NBH:
http://hotfile.com/dl/42956359/b56d7b8/mondimg_WP7.nbh.html
Here's the .nbh dump:
http://hotfile.com/dl/42937584/47038a1/Mondimg_WP7.rar.html
New! 5/18 Here is a link to all the raw partition data found inside the flash.store.bin (os.nb) - Note that I do not yet fully know the FAT, so the partitions marked UnknownData are more than likely part of the partition immediately following. Once I fully understand the FAT I will update with a proper list of partitions.
http://hotfile.com/dl/43557999/23bc8cb/Mondrian-raw-parts-and-dump.rar.html
Here's the dump of IMGFS, which contains most of the desirable data: (great thanks to l2tp with his help deciphering D000FF)
http://hotfile.com/dl/43241102/b6e5585/Mondrian_WP7_IMGFS_DUMP.rar.html
Note that the os.nb inside bears a D000FF header, which is different from a WM 6.x .nb, .nb0, or .bin.. it also has no FlashLayoutSector and IMGFS is compressed with XPH. So more than likely none of the existing tools will work to dump that yet. Now that i'm done with updating NBHImageTool i'll look more closely
Thanks Sir
ok... game is on.. now, where are all the super cooks to port it on HD2 ?
i would easily donate 100$ for a working WP7 Rom on HD2
another interesting question, will Internet Services work ? since it not officially out, some services my still b unavailable etc ?

Thanks for giving a heads up, silentP, but just a note, what I posted was the CONTENTS of the .nbh, rather than a mirror of the .nbh itself. No one has yet posted a mirror of the .nbh, I can do that now.

Hello Bigboss
can u clarify more,is this the rom wm7 or wp7? Cingular don't exist I guess, so was this for an old unreleased HTC device? Just a guess, but pls throw some more light on that
Here's a mirror of the originally posted file:
http://hotfile.com/dl/42956359/b56d7b8/mondimg_WP7.nbh.html
Regarding Cingular, HTC often refers to AT&T as Cingular internally, even on WM6.5 devices. So that's not toooooo strange.
The build here is 6167 so this is not an old WM7 ROM. Again, HTC may be referring to WP7 as WM7 internally, sometimes MSFT calls it that internally as well

Hey guys
This .nbh is unsigned, I made a private build of NBHImageTool to work with unsigned .nbh, after I clean up the code a bit I'll update my thread with that. For now here's the .nbh dump:

The tools have already been created, I don't think we can get them yet. I know tom and his team have them.

Or so they say....tom says a lot of things...just because he says them doesn't mean there true...trust me i know.
From what I understand tom & co were working with JTAG, rather than the bootloader, so likely would not have had to mess with decompiling the D000FF format. But if they did work with it any help would be appreciated

Also my thoughts.
Always when it gets nice, tom's name shows up. He should share more, but lets stay ontopic.
The new HTC device is probably the diamond3 or a new line. After the HD, the next device was the Diamond2, so I think Diamond3 will have this Rom.
Great news, thanks for posting
Cool. So what are the next steps guyz... I have no idea of cooking or porting, but just interested in knowing the process involved on a HIGH LEVEL in Layman language. Just so even ppl like us also understand what kind of time energy and dedication goes into chefs like you who are involved in getting this OS on our respective devices.
Atlease from what I have heard or saw (like in one of the Win Phone ads), the most probable of the existing devices out there for this OS is HD2. Again, I could be totally off with this, but just based on the SnapDragon, Capacitive, RAM and other specs of HD2 makes me think this might be the most compatible device for now.
Of course, the fact that I own one does not mean anything
Since this is an HTC's ROM, it should have pre installed software, like readers, games etc. Do we have any info on that?
