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:

As a fellow user of the LG Expo, would be more than happy to help out as I can.

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.

Hey guys,
I've been trolling the forums for some time now, and I have yet to find the answer that I am looking for in regards to cooking my own ROMs - specifically for the HTC Vogue (Bell). I have looked through all sorts of stickies/readmes, but I still cannot figure out how to put it all together...
I've got a stock ROM from Bell, it has been extracted (so I have the bootloader, .nbh file and so on)...
Now HOW do I extract the .nbf, or even edit it for that matter? The only solution that I have found is the UNIX-based one, but I'll be honest, PERL and I dont get along well...is there a GUI or commandline based solution for WIN32?
I feel dumb for asking, but if someone could help me figure out the editing/compiling/flashing aspect, I'd be forever grateful
Thanks.
Most of the kitchens will take that nbh and parse it out in to the OEM and SYS folders you need.
I would suggest you search for DogGuy's command-line kitchen, and use that as a learning tool as he has batch files that automate most everything, and yet you can go through them to better understand what is happening.
Good luck!
Also some recent threads at ppcgeeks on this topic with useful info.

Yeah, I did check that post, however, it seemed that they were a step ahead of me...the tools that were provided did not (both gave application errors on launch...?).
Thanks for the replies, any one else have other tips, pointers, etc?
PPCGeeks.com is the answer...I still haven't found it yet...there's too much info on that site. Have you seen this thread:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=18745
By following that method its a TON of work...and that's using a 'kitchen' someone already made. What you and I want to do is create our own kitchen by stripping a stock rom...and there aren't any guides on how to do that...I'm assuming because that's even MORE work. So basically a (TON of work x MORE work) = Fu%$ that.
If you find a somewhat easy way to do this before I do, post it for us!

But i don't know how to cook a rom, my Omnia came without warranty so i don't want to brick it so soon.
i will wait for the good things come true.
Thanks again!
It seems like the people making the most progress are over at modaco.
I put the DXHH1 PDA and XXHH3 Radio on my phone and it is better, but the HH1 is just cooked from Samsung dumps without modification as far as I know. There is no so of customization going on.

I think the DXHH1 code is modified from original, as the Chinese SIP was removed to free up memory. The author, chaimd, was able to modify the dump and prepare an exe to flash the Omnia.
I recall reading a little while back a message (somewhere, sorry for not remembering) that there was a way (if i remember correctly) to make a ROM Update Utility that wouldn't harm the data on the phone (excluding MicroSD which we have to remove when updating). I don't know the truth to this, but the idea behind being able to upgrade roms and keep personal data (and maybe installed applications) is cool. I know that whenever I upgrade roms the biggest part is reinstallation of my programs (it gets very annoying!). Its not so annoying that i want to toss my Dash against the wall, I just don't like having to do it over and over again (especially with new roms and updates coming out).
Essentially, having to reinstall, and re-setup, my phone with each ROM update is really what keeps me from upgrading a big part of the time (ie: going from the Energy Rom to Ookba's new 3vo ROM). Is there any way to be able to make this process of reinstallation easier?

That was exactly the link I had looked at (and apparently not too long ago either). I read through a good part of it, but its past Midnight here, and I am drowsy beyond belief , so I didn't make much sense of any of it. Essentially I don't cook roms, and it mentioned something about the chef having to make the RUU in a specific way (correct?). Is this in our near future?
Da_G alread made a test ROM and updated the ROM sucessfully for the Raphael. I'm sure our smartphones aren't too far from getting it either. They just have to make some tools for us chefs to use it in our kitchens now Soon.

LG Expo Original/ Official ROM - v10d
I was seriously unhappy with LG for not providing us an update for so long and lack of base ROM was not allowing us to start cooking ourselves.
Pissed off wondering why I bought my LG Expo at full price and not buy one of those HTC alternatives, today I got down to see if I can scoop some info from their website/ update utility/ etc etc. I fired up WireShark, Fiddler2 and some of tools I wrote myself.
Going thru various network packets, I found a perticular XML snippet that looked interesting. It had a URL that was pointing to an exe called: LG_SmartPhone_SW_Upgrade_GW820_V10d_Ship.exe .
Though we are already on V10d and it is not a update for us, it meant that if that path was accessible and I was able to download the file, we will have the original ROM that our phone was shipped with
So here are the URL's:
URL1: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdat.../LG_SmartPhone_SW_Upgrade_GW820_V10d_Ship.exe
URL2: http://csmgaic.lgmobile.com/swdata/.../LG_SmartPhone_SW_Upgrade_GW820_V10d_Ship.exe
Once you download the exe and launch it, it starts extracting the phone image. Do not click 'Start Update' button.
It extracts to
%ProgramData%\LGMOBILEAX\Phone\GW820-V10d-OCT-27-2009+0.dz
On Windows 7 it translates to something like:
C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone\GW820-V10d-OCT-27-2009+0.dz
With this I think I can say:
Let the cooking begin!!
omfg is this a dream? u just made my ****ing day! kudos to u good sir! kudos to u! someone get this man a cookie asa - ****ing - p! does Dark know yet? if only i had his number id call and wake him... im sure he'd want to know

Do you remember where abouts in the updater app you were doing stuff when it generated that response? I was inspired by your success and hooked my IQ up with a network tap running yesterday, but I was only able to find a reference to a kdz file, which Dark tried unsuccessfully to extract.
I got that url by trying 'recovery phone' from the menu, so I'm hoping there's somewhere else you went to get reference to the .exe and I can do some more digging.
I got off my duff and figured out what a kdz was and extracted it ... still seems strange to me there's no *Ship.exe but I'm a neophyte.
extracted OK, putting it back together now...
So I got things extracted with imgfstodump, and it looks like everything is in the dump. I had some weird problems with imgfsfromdump, though, but after a few more attempts (this time with ervius visual kitchen imgfs tools) and a re-dump, it created the imgfs.bin. I started with ImgfsToNb, but it gave me an error without writing anything.
I tracked it down to a code problem in ImgfsToNb.cpp, in the sectorSize function. It's looking for the signature "MSFLSH50", but the signature inside the imgfs is "MSFLSH500". The code requires slight modification (to make it ignore the trailing null in the signature):
Code:
// find MSFLSH50 header
for(i = 0; i < Size - sizeof(signature); i+=0x100) // assumption: MSFLSH always starts at a sector border, and sectors size is always a multiple of 0x100
{
if(memcmp(Base+i, signature, [COLOR="Red"]([/COLOR]sizeof(signature)[COLOR="Red"]-1)[/COLOR] ) == 0)
break;
}
So, now I have a modified FLASH2.nb, which is as far as I got. I should only need to turn it into a FLASH.bin, through whatever transformations are required...

So is anyone going to start cooking for this phone, I was looking for an alternative to the htc hd2 that was cheaper with a slide out keyboard and this looks good hardware wise but im not big on the lg shell. Thats alright cuz im used to sbp mobile shell anyway and planned on putting that on but before i put up the cash to upgrade from my htc diamond id like to make sure i can update the lg expo and such. But this board looks very dead.
Unfortunately, most of the action has been on http://www.lg-expo.com/. I've been trying to restrict my posts to this forum, but that also means that less people will see them.
I've been working on my own ROM. It is very easy to cook for this phone. I'm sure in the next few weeks we will see a few more ROMs pop up.

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 ?

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

Great News indeed, And thanks to you Da_G for helping us with this. Two thumbs up from me.

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:
http://hotfile.com/dl/42937584/47038a1/Mondimg_WP7.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 no IMGFS. So more than likely none of the existing tools will work to dump that yet. I'll get on the job after I update NBHImageTool

The tools have already been created, I don't think we can get them yet. I know tom and his team have them.
Can't wait to see what you come up with Da_G!!! Thanks again.

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?
