''HJ-split'' will split ANY file into ANY size! (you choose!)
''goodbye rapidshare/4shared/megaupload..''
let me explain.. for example a .NBH file
2 - Split
* Select Input cooked .nbh file and Output location..
* Select file size as 8 MB.. (maximum upload size for xda dev's)
* Start..
* Place Output parts's into WinRarZip file's..
* Lable eg. ''NBH_Part1'' - 2.. 3.. ect..
(WinrarZip will be less than 8 MB for each part..)
* Upload to xda dev's!
4 - Joining
** Extract all part's to same folder **
* Select Input file NBH_Part1 ''ONLY''..
* Select Output location of your cooked .nbh file..
* Start..
PISS EASY and QUICK!
...
this is o2 uk official os nbh..
split..
Hmm I think this is exactly why the filesize limits are set - to prevent people wasting server space with huge archives, that can be stored externally. Too many people DLing will only slow down the forums for the rest of us.
It's very easy to increase the filesize limit on server if the admins choose to do so
But speaking of it, I think it's better idea to use WinRAR SFX archive split by say 6MB and then zip the parts.
- you don't need any software to unpack them other than Windows ZIP compression
- the result will be much smaller in total size
- the parts sizes will be almost even, so there's less parts total
The zipped RAR may in theory actually be bigger than the RAR part, that's why not split by 8MB but rather 6 or 7
Unpack:
- unzip all parts to one folder
- run the exe and select where to unpack
- done

(Formerly "Dump Sorter" and "XipDumpSort")
New and Improved - Much more functionality than the old one!
I'm trying to make this a general cleaning\sorting\worker app for processing dumped folders. If you'd like a feature added, please let me know.
What is it?
This is a simple program designed to take the hard work out of rearranging, cleaning and merging dumped ROMs with Kitchens.
What can it do?
Clean - Removed all files with the same name as their directories (This is very useful when converting files to modules)
Sort - Files and Folders can be sorted by:
Ervius Kitchen's folder format
osKitchen's folder format
By comparing to a donor folder (should work with any kitchen)
Unsort from:
Ervius Kitchen's folder format
osKitchen's folder format
Merge missing file and folders from a donor directory (useful when the dump is missing files\folders) (SVN Directories are ignored ('.svn' and '_svn'))
How to install
Click the 'Install' button at http://vidmes.com/dumpsorter/publish.htm
(In order to use the 'launch' link, you need to be using IE)
(Alternatively, just use the zip below)
Notes
Merging is done last, so if the donor directory is 'dirty', this 'dirt' will be copied across
This requires .NET 3.5
Also attached is the source code (for anybody interested) - the project was built using Visual Studio 2010, so it may not open in older versions of VS
Known Issues
Things to do
Get a logo\icon
Ability to pull data from archives (eg zip, rar and 7 zip)

thanx Mr Moderator
its very usefull
WOW!! This is an awesome tool. I'm definitely gonna be giving it a try. Thanks
EDIT: Works perfect
This thing is awesome. It's perfect for organizing SYS folders for any kitchen based on ervius's visual kitchen.
Hello,
Thanks for this tool, it's really nice!!!
Just small thing added to your code :
Code:
void bgwDoSorting_ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
txtLog.Text = (string)e.UserState;
pgbrStatus.Value = (e.ProgressPercentage > 100) ? 100 : e.ProgressPercentage;
}
and :
Code:
//old : bgwDoSorting.ReportProgress(workDone * 100 / workTotal);
bgwDoSorting.ReportProgress(workDone * 100 / workTotal, result);
I also reverse the log to have latest lines on top (log+newline instead of newline+log)
Thanks for the great job!!
very nice, thanks for sharing!

I was considering that, but I think you'll find it will run a bit slower (due to having to constantly update the log box). Then again, if you have a dual processor machine (and who doesn't?), you probably won't notice a difference.
Any chance someone would also be interested in writing a batch file or simple program to delete duplicate files inside of a folder? ie: if there happened to be files inside of the module folder as well as the actual module files. So for example "tapres.dll" module folder for some reason has "tapres.dll" file inside. Would need to got hrough whole SYS though.
I am testing it now....
Pretty cool set of resources...thanks
Point of Sale.

Sure
Maybe I can change my sorter into a cleaner as well...
Any other 'common tasks' I should include?
Perhaps a tool to merge missing folders into the sorted folder? (eg if the new SYS or OEM is missing stuff from the old one)

Good ideas...
Maybe I add one : default template folder, for example specify DPI, RESV/H and Lang code(s) then go should be usefull when adding a new language to an existing kitchen who don't have the full folder structure yet for the new language
If you need help do not hesitate!
PS: about performance, as you said everyone have dualcore computers at least so backgroundworker + log refresh is not slowing the process, and if it is it's not really visible (I'm not working on 1000000 files for 1000 languages so...)
I've rebuilt the backend to be more 'flexible' (ie custom workers and sorters).
I will build the cleaner and the extra sorter some time soon and have it posted up - don't expect anything too soon though...
Attached is the updated source code
(You should be able to tweak the .sln file to work in Visual Studio 2008)
Very good application but I can not use it, can you set it to work with .NET 2 ?

Because .Net3.5 has big size for me and members like me to download and install and if I install it, can I remove my .NET2 and .NET1 or need them too for other programs?
Now I have .NET1,2,3 but not .NET3.5
.Net 3.5 include 2.0 but you don't need to remove 2.0 before installing 3.5...
If you use windows update it will be big but not as big as if you download the full package from microsoft (it will just take kind of missing parts)
I like the way microsoft made all this framework, you can setup 3.5 without any problem to your existing 2.0 (or 1.1) applications.....more and more programs are using it so it's not a time loosing install for me..
New version released!

Nice i saw your announcement in the release and came to see it... downloading and testing in the next release i seton the kitchen... maybe the tutorials will be useless ... Thanks a lot man!!!
hey there
Thanks for this update, will test today...
Missing screenshots on 1st post lol
what about using ClickOnce so we can have auto updates of the program? If you need help hosting I may help.... I love programs I like to be auto updated and it's really a small thing to do with VS (never tested with 2010)
Keep the good work, looks like we are coming to a complete "pre-kitchen tool"....
finally I get a new phone and was looking around how to replace bootloader PIC and all guides seems so difficult that I created a small tool to make it all easy.
--
StartPIC working with any resolution, presets for wVGA, VGA and qVGA. (480x800 , 480x640 and 240x320)
+ easy drag and drop tool (drag BMP into bat)
+ one or two consequent starting PICs (also just with drug&drop)
+ starting with BMP finishing with flashing
+ presets for wVGA, qVGA, VGA
+ guides how to change presets for different resolutions inside bat file
+ guides how to create correct BMP (to see it, run bat file)
+ keeps NB files in case you want to flash them together with OS
+ BMP files Context Menu addition (optional), because drag&drop could be done from any folder location, but NOT different drive so far. You need to edit path in reg files to match yours.
- you may need to replace RUU inside, to match your pda
- I created, but didn't test VGA resolution presets
credits goes to:
* nbimg v1.1 (c)2008 Pau Oliva - pof @ xda-deve
* converting NB-NBH - NBHutil by Olipro
* tool for flashing rhodium CustomRUU.exe by udK @ xda-deve
and I just created that small bat and instructions making it all work together easy
===
Instructions:
there are 6 bat files for now, use only the one you need and delete others to avoid confusion.
StartPIC-480x800_rhodium.batto use with wVGA - RHODIUM (touch pro 2)
StartPIC-480x800.batto use with any other wVGA
StartPIC-480x640_raphael.batto use with VGA - RAPHAEL (touch pro)* not tested
StartPIC-480x640.batto use with any other VGA* not tested
StartPIC-240x320_kaiser.batto use with qVGA - KAISER (tytn II)
StartPIC-240x320.batto use with any other qVGA
rhodium, kaiser and raphael versions will go through all of the flashing process.
If your pda is wVGA and not rhodium, it could be that StartPIC-480x800_rhodium.bat will still work ok. Try that first. The same for others.
for universal versions:
1. after NBHutil window opens, choose your model and add splash file to splash box on right side, (NOT SPL!!!) there may be just one box. if you want to use subsplash (2nd PIC) and it's not there, you need to edit NBHutil.xml to add it.
2. hit "build NBH" and choose to overwrite RUU_signed.nbh in StartPIC folder.
3. now you need to close NBHutil, it stays it taskbar after close, right click the "N" icon and choose exit
4. process will continue to RUU
* you may need to replace RUU with yours. Put it in tools folder and rename exe to CustomRUU.exe
==
To make your pda's version:
edit bat file with your resolution and model name in the name. e.g. StartPIC-480x800_rhodium.bat
on beginning of the bat file, you'll find values you need to replace and description on how to do it.
usualy you only would need to replace two values:
set model_id=RHOD10000
set ver_forNBH=1.00.RHODIUM

UPDATED 29.02.12
htcrie v.0.8.1.85
+ added an updated extract function[gui][com]
+ dumped ROM support (*.D000FF file format)
+ support partitions with unlimited data sector count
download
UPDATED 02.12.11
Some good news.
It is possible to convert all not direct map partitions to partition with FLASH_PARTITION_FLAG_DIRECT_MAP flag.
This gives us increased speed and reduced boot time.
Two days ago, we have successfully tested it with Barin.
How to use:
1. Download htcrie 0.8.1.82
2. Extract partitions:
Code:
htcrie extract /P your_folder\OS.nb
for HD2 users it will be part04.bin
3. In the outputfolder will be created parttbl.cfg text file.
Open parttbl.cfg file in the notepad.
All partitions have DIRECT_MAP value.
It can be 0 or 1 (fo direct map).
4. Change this value for IMGFS, User, or USP partitions.
DIRECT_MAP=1
Save parttbl.cfg file
5. Drag and drop parttbl.cfg file on htcRIE
Will create a new OS.nb file.
UPDATED 27.11.11
htcrie v.0.8.1.82
+ added d000ff to bin extract function [com]
+ support images which was updated via ms update tool [gui][com]
(f.e. all dft freedom roms)
Now we can create your own partition layout for os and set any size of partitions.
We don't need os.nb anymore.
download
How to use:
1. To extract all partitions from a D000FF image file (OS.nb):
Code:
htcrie extract /P <inputfile> [<outputfolder>]
All partitions and parttbl.cfg will be in the output folder.
You can extract IMGFS partition, which was updated via ms update tool (f.e. dft freedom roms).
2. To build a D000FF image file:
Code:
htcrie <parttbl.cfg> (for Drag and Drop)
htcrie build /D <inputfolder> [<outputfile>]
All partitions (logo.bin, ... user.bin) and a parttable.cfg text file must be in the input folder. As option, you can use a parttbl.bin file (first block of the original os.nb) too.
To set a new size of any partition - simply change the BlockCount and Reserved values in the parttbl.cfg file.
THIS TOOL ALLOWS TO BUILD d000ff FILE LIKE ORIGINAL OS
GUI MODE
3. To view and extract contetnt of IMGFS/BLDR/SLDR/NK/LOGO:
Files:
Code:
Select IMGFS -> Select All Items (Click One Item -> Ctrl+A) -> Save selected files
Partition:
Code:
Select IMGFS -> Save selected files
Packages:
Code:
Select IMGFS -> Select SYS/OEM/Packege(s) -> Save selected files
Now You can extract IMGFS content, which was updated via ms update tool (f.e. dft freedom roms).
htcrie v.0.8.1.69
Unlocked Replace function. Support any size of IMGFS. Full version.
How to use:
Code:
htcrie replace /I <imgfs.bin> <os.nb>
download
Thanks a lot to ted973, Football, MagLight for helping me to test this feature, because I do not have any wp7 device.
1. To extract contetnt of IMGFS/BLDR/SLDR/NK/LOGO use htcRIE
Files:
Code:
Select IMGFS -> Select All Items (Click One Item -> Ctrl+A) -> Save selected files
Partition:
Code:
Select IMGFS -> Save selected files
Packages:
Code:
Select IMGFS -> Select SYS/OEM/Packege(s) -> Save selected files
2. To edit default.hv and user.hv use HVEdit_v.2.0.112
You can use drag-and-drop. Create shortcut first.
3. To rebuild IMGFS use imgfsfromdump (or other tool), but don`t forget a new cecompr_nt.dll (with XPH compression type support).
You can use cecompr7_nt.dll from htcRIE.zip, but rename to cecompr_nt.dll first.
4. To replace IMGFS:
Code:
htcrie replace /I <imgfs.bin> <os.nb>

isn't that a little bit rude to say to someone that just made a tool to dump parts of a rom ?
but what do you think of making one your self and make the source open ?

Hi,
I start this thread because a couple of people asked my to upload the WP7 Rom Tools by AnDim. I don't know what happened to AnDim. About a month ago suddenly all his posts were deleted. The forum admins recovered all the posts and locked the original thread, which can be found here. After the thread was recovered it was closed and AnDim's account was disabled. Unfortunately the attachments were not recovered. So AnDim's work is lost. I got a copy of the latest htcRIE, but not from HVEdit. So I will copy the original post from AnDim here and attach his htcRIE. But I don't plan on maintaining his code or support this program or anything, because source code is not available and he coded in C++ so it can't be easily reversed. I just hope he will return some day, so this thread can be closed again and the original thread will be resurrected. All credits should go to AnDim for his great work. Info below is a copy of the original thread.

I could only find them on Russian forums, needing a subscription... But I'm not really at ease with Cyrillic !
Could you give me the ROM that can edit by this tool please? I try to extract some ROM such as RUU_Schubert_hTC_Asia_SEA_WWE_1.57.728.02_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_TEST but I can not add new IMGFS to it because menu "Add File" is not enabled.

RAR
Rar is a data compressor algorithm. By using this we can decrease size of our files. It is bit slow then other file compressor softwares.
ZIPLT
ZipIt is commonly used software for file compressor. Normally zip is used on window based machines. It compresses files up to 8%.
GZIPLT
GzipIt is also used for file compression. It is used when huge files are compressed. It is very beneficial when we need more space and save time. It compresses files using very low space.ZlibIt is software library to compress data. It is abstracted from deflate compression. It is used for maximum number of data. Errors can be eliminated.
DEFLATElt
DEFLATEIt is a lossless data compression algorithm. It uses LZ77 algorithm and Huffman coding to compress data. Deflate streaming consist of blocks. Compression is carried out in two steps.TarIt is also a compression tool for data and file compression. Gzip compression tool relies on tar for compression.
Rar vs Zip vs Gzip vs Zlib vs Deflate vs TarAbove mentioned all the file and data compression algorithms are mainly seems to be same to each other. But there is a little difference between all of them. The difference between Rar and zip is, Rar compression is bit slower then zip file compression. Rar is mainly used in window based machines and zip is used for UNIX based machines. Rar is old and mow a day zip is mostly used. The difference between zip and Gzip is, Gzip is used for large number of files to be compressed. Low space and time and time saving is another difference of Gzip from Rar and zip. Difference between deflate and Zlib is, Zlib is an abstraction of deflate and it is used for compression of huge files.
