Restoring FM radio app - Windows 10 Mobile

Recently I was exploring CAB files for the latest build (14393.693) on Microsoft Update Catalog.
I discovered that there're 4 CABs with 'Microsoft.PhoneFM' signature.
1) microsoft.phonefm.cbs_58f813d59a6244b89dbed465f42116e9beceb1fb.cab
2) microsoft.microsoftphonefm.platformmanifest.updateos.cbs_39275c2208681d5ef62b399100582cadd6ff0f5d.cab
3) microsoft.microsoftphonefm.platformmanifest.efiesp.cbs_e820f921692dc5d1b3abfc35894dc17dc40bf262.cab
4) microsoft.microsoftphonefm.platformmanifest.mainos.cbs_91bdbd15b805bcb52342306932d833c8db7a30bb.cab
I unpacked them and found out that there're manifest files inside.
Can't they help to restore stock FM radio app?

Windows Media Player 10 Mobile

Microsoft have released Windows Media Player 10 Mobile but only to manufacturers. It is not, and will not be, available as an update or download unless your manufacturer provides an update or updated ROM.
I pulled a ROM update down from one of the OEMs whove done an update and could extract the files for WMP10M, but I'm not sufficiently up with the whole ROM cooking thing to incorporate them into a new ROM for my Blue Angel.
Anyone fancy giving this a go ?
Can you Zip the files and Upload here?
yeah, let the expert assist you.
I am very keen to have WMP 10 too.
just upload the ms.nbf file of that ROM and the rest is up to us.
This is a link to the ROM update for the Dell Axim x30 that contains WMP10 :
http://support.dell.com/support/dow...eviceid=6672&devlib=7&releaseid=R87096&p=HTTP
I downloaded this and used a tool (which I now cant find - doh!) to extract it.
What else would you guys need ?
Do you need a copy of my current ROM ?
If so, how do I make a copy of it ?
Sorry, that last post was me...forgot to login.
i have downloaded the file.
After extracting, i found 2 *.IMG :roll:
therefore, i try to use UltraISO or MagicISO just to extract *.IMG but it fails.
Some other experts may need to participate
I presume DumpRom will not help us.. Mamaich? :wink:
What kind of Pocket Pc have you upgraded? Dell ??
OK.
I got an iPAQ rom update from HP here : http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/handhelds/us/download/22279.html
I ran it so it copied the filees onto my PC hard drive.
I then ran dumprom.exe against the d2b10110uo.nbf file and got all the files from the ROM.
I have them all in a zip file as I am not sure exactly which ones are required for WMP10M. I have zipped up and attached all the ones that look as though they are WMP10M related.
i suppose all the files has to be zip into *.CAB
and copy over to PDA and unzip it
is this all the files that belongs to WMP?
i think let the expert do some testing

Sorry, I must hve missed your comment. The rom can be got from here : http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/files/handhelds/us/download/22279.html
Sorry, tried to upload but it keeps failing.
Anyone tried copying the files in wm.zip to their xda2 and trying to run wmplayer.exe ?
wanna try but at work with no cradle
Locked up after a few seconds of the "wait" icon on my PDA2K running 1.31 WWE and 1.06.02 Radio.
First you are missing many WmFiles,there are many that are not begin to Wmxxxx,but unfortunately I can't remeber others.
And I think DumpRom is missing relocation on Dll files,like discussed time ago
I thought someone had mentioned that WMP10 software is "somehow" tied into the hardware or the OS specific to the devices so it wouldnt be possible to extract the executable application and make a cab or whatever and run it on any other devices that it didnt ship with...
I'm no guru with ROMs and stuff.. but if any one of you guys manages to make this work, it will be awesome!
Good luck!
i heard someone had the cab or a way to install wmp10 ... anyone here knows how?

Custom Smartphone ROMS

Does anyone know how to make custom roms for devices like the Excalibur or other Smartphones. I want to remove a lot of the clutter and add some applications of my own.
JAmerican
Not there yet AFAIK.
The closest I have gotten is extracting the rom components and mixing them. I took the HTC Splash, the HTC Radio, and the T-Mobile OS; made a custom ruu and flashed successfully. Now my Dash shows HTC Screen when it boots and I have the updated Radio. I managed to dump the T-Mobile OS, but haven't been able to rebuild. HTCRT by Dark Simpson will create the ruu_signed.nbh for use with the uspl though. NBHEXTRACT will break the nbh into its components. Tried the HYPERCORE tools, that's how I got the dump of the OS, but cannot do the xip parts with these tools for some reason. PKG Tool works. Have the OEM and SYS folders, but XIP comes up empty.
This is something I hope to see... I mean why even bother with getting the HTC unbranded version if we can remove all the clutter ourselves?

Bug fixes! Even if you build a custom rom, you would want to start with the latest available OS to get in on whatever bug fixes have been added. Then you would rip it apart and add/remove whatever you wanted. Sometimes the new OS would also have added/improved features, but the bug fixes is the main one.

Thanks for the insight. I reached as for as extracting the .NBH into .NB files with OS, GSM etc. How do you extract these. The PKG Tool didn't work for me and the Hypercore tools aren't working right either.

Hey all,
I was able to downgrade to WM5 and I am starting to understand a few things regarding ROM building but I still don't know how to edit the Windows.nb or OS.nb file. Can anyone offer suggestions. I am trying to optimize it so that there is less clutter.
JAmerican
I was able to extract the the OS.nb before and edit it, but unfortunately, it was not fully extracted as i was hoping, at first i thought i was able to fully extract it, but when i tried to reflash again the OS, it was flashed normally but not as functional as normal one, many were not included, the Start Menu seems to be incomplete, no keypad lock, no quickapp etc... so i came up with a conclusion that it was not fully extracted..even the initflashfiles.dat were not present on the dumped files, i thought that file was the only one missing and i tried to manually copy it from /Windows/ directory and put it on the dumped files folder..but it wasn't a success.
Anyone successful to fully extract the OS? I'm slowly compiling a kitchen for Excalibur and the full extraction of the OS is only the missing part of the kitchen and i'm stuck with it. Once it is up and found a solution, then we can come up with cooked roms for Excalibur.

Cool. I went back to WM5 to see if it was more efficient but with all the lack of features (email instant search, alpha-dialing, file syncing, etc.) It was not worth it. I went back to WM6. I hope we can get some cook ROMS soon. I really want more usable RAM. Could you give me the exact steps you used to extract the ROM? I tried HyperCore but it doesn't work for me for some reason.

Try this mate:
Aserg's Imgfs Tools, attached on THIS thread
Place OS.nb on the same folder then execute !UI_wwe.cmd
Choose P - Unpack OS.nb <for Herald-Prophet> to dump-folder
the ROM will be dumped on the "dump" folder, but i don't think it's a complete dump, if there's anyone knows how to do the complete dump, please share

Thanks for sharing! I was finally able to dump it. Now to see if I can mess around and get it to build! Wish me luck .
JAmerican
You can easily build it again, but the question again is, are the files on the dump folder complete? i wish you luck mate! keep us posted.

I deleted some files from the ROM and rebuilt it but it was in .NBA format. I don't remember exactly what I did but I think I renamed the file to .NB and made a .NBH file out of it. Then Flashed my device. I got as far as the WM screen and was stuck there. I reflashed with the Standard WM6 ROM from T-Mobile. .
I'll try some more messing around. I really want to get some cooked roms for Smartphone edition.
JAmerican
Your right about files missing. I was able to extract the ROM and its packages and get two folders (ROM and SYS) along with other packages. The program I used (Package Tool) states that I am missing the following files:
[Missing Files]
SYS\MSXIPKernel
MODULE: busenum.dll
MODULE: cachefilt.dll
MODULE: certmod.dll
MODULE: coredll.dll
MODULE: device.exe
MODULE: devmgr.dll
MODULE: diskcache.dll
MODULE: encfilt.dll
MODULE: fatfsd.dll
MODULE: fatutil.dll
MODULE: filesys.exe
MODULE: fsdmgr.dll
MODULE: fsreplxfilt.dll
MODULE: hd.dll
MODULE: imgfs.dll
MODULE: mspart.dll
MODULE: osaxst0.dll
MODULE: pm.dll
MODULE: regenum.dll
SYS\WinCENLS_WWE
File: wince.nls
OEM\LangDB
File: initflashfiles.dat
File: mxip_lang.vol
OEM\OEMXIPKERNEL
File: boot.hv
File: boot.rgu
MODULE: cecompr.dll
MODULE: ceddk.dll
MODULE: HtcFsdspy.dll
File: mxip_initdb.vol
MODULE: nk.exe
MODULE: ONDisk.dll
and these files are in the Windows folder as well as other locations on my device. The only problem is that the device denies me access to these files. Is there a way to access these DLLs with a powerful file manager. I tried Resco and Total Commander to no avail. Anyway to trick the device into allowing me to copy these files?
Thanks.

I believe there is a need for a simple ROM cooking procedure on devices such as Excalibur and Vox. I'm thinking of a "Norton Ghost" procedure to backup and restore the entire OS and User Filesystem partitions.
The ROM cook procedure would then be something like this:
1. customize the device (all changes stored on device memory of course)
2. backup OS partition (using special USPL)
3. backup User File System (using special USPL)
And a user would just do this:
1. restore OS partition (using RUU)
2. restore User File System (using RUU)
3. personalize device
Does that sound acceptable?
Ok so I was able to extract the T-Mobile WM6 ROM, I was able to use the Package Tool to get it seperated into a SYS and OEM folder. I deleted things like Live Messenger and Windows Live. I put the updated version of Live Search in ROM. I only added one other application, CeleTask. I didn't want to put too much work into tweaking this thing and find it not working. I am downloading the CreateOS.exe and CreateROM.bat files and will try to compile this thing. Wish me luck.

Hey friend. I know this is not appropriate place to post this, but since you know my situation on the wifi of my phone. Would it be possible to put a working reverse flash of a tmobile dash onto mine and fix the wifi. I have tried everything. And you have been very helpful and it is much appreciated.
keep up the progress guys, i can't wait to try some of the cooked roms from users on this site
Good luck, i can't wait either....
Hey guys,
I used a tool to try and convert my unpacked ROM back to a packed (one folder ROM) and it deleted all my progress. Go figure. So I have to basically start all over again. This time though, instead of making all the changes. I am just going to remove like myFaves, update LiveSearch and add one of my own applications as well as one of my favorite applications and see if I can flash my Dash with it.
Somewhat but its my fault for not backing up.

[Q]Replace/update OEM packages and other issues...

First of all I'm sorry for my english, hope you can understand me...
I'm going to cook my first ROM...
The idea is to make 2 versions (with/without manila) of a clean "uc capable" rom; what I want to do is take a 1.93 official base and update some oem app and sys (i.e. htc camera and netcf) and remove some others to replace theese with 3t part usefully app (i.e. putting in wktask manager instead htc task).
Now my doubts:
(I've readed a lot of wikies and thread but didn't find a CLEAR answer to all my questions)
1- If I use an official .exe rom as base I obiouvsly find inside it the radio part...have to remove this befor but in base folder due i don't need it for my work? How?
2- I'm able to remove oem pack from my rom base and I'm also able to repack new ones starting from a cab file...but I don't know if it's possible to take (exactly as they are) some oem pack from a stock/custom(when not protected) rom to use in mine...I saw that a lot of cookers use oem pack taken from raphael official roms to update thair roms and I would know if the process to do this is just open the rom, copy the oem and past it in mine... In this case...where can I find a good very update raphael rom?!
3- Opposite than this, for manila I would use the "animated switches" version. I want to downgrade it to the version with theese animations but I don't know if there's a particular process to replace this oem...can you tell me? PS: what is the exact manila version I need to do it?
4- TO UPDATE NETCF TO THE 3.5 VERSION WHAT HAVE I EXACTLY DO? And is the Alexandre's oem pack good for my pourpose?
Thank you a lot and sorry if (maybe) some questions were answered in other threads...I searched and readed a lot but there are too many informations in this forum for a noob/bad english speaker/... like me so I decided to ask!

1. When dumping a ROM, it will dump separately the splashes, radio, os and extrom (if any.) Extract the exe with WinRAR and dump the nbh.
2. When dumping a ROM, it will create packages if ROM is unprotected. A good place of finding a Raph ROM would be the Raphael forums.
3. Delete the old package from kitchen and replace with new one (in your case, the old one, animated).
4. You can find ready made NetCF 3.5 packages. You should delete the old NetCF 2 from SYS folder and replace it with the 3.5

So, to replace OEM, just put out (from a rom) and put in (in mine)...so simple?!
Ahahah...
Please, excuse me for my stupidity...BUT I REALLY NEED AN HELP!!!
(I'm following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=413782&highlight=kitchen)
Here's what I do:
1) I've downloaded from htc site the last official stock rom (localized for my country) \HTC Touch Diamond\QMR\RUU_Diamond_HTC_ITA_1.93.408.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
2) I've extracted all files and putted them into Base ROM folder of surface kitchen.
3) clicked on begin and obtained some folders in the kitchwen one
Now if I go into one package folders in OEM (htc gesture in example) i can't see dsm or rgu files, but just dll and .provxml ones...WHY?! I don't think it's good, right? Where is my fault?!
SO SAD...
PS: I've searched a lot but I've not found a netcf prepared package to cook...

You have to create the packages!
Don't know the kitchen but it should be like this in every kitchen.
Also, you can check inside provxml file (notepad will do), maybe the rgu (registry entries) are set through provisioning.

confused...
I think I have to create just the packages of apps I would to add...not even all the apps contained in the stock rom!
Looking and reading tutorials in this forum I understood that If I would (i.e.) add/rmv apps to my rom I've just to put its files in base rom and then (after extract all) add/remove what I want. Then rebuild.
But for all others teorically I don't do anything...Is this wrong?

Converting XIP files to regular files

Hello,
I need to obtain the WM6 smartphone SMS/Messaging (tmail.exe) application from a kitchen ROM, in order to replace the one that is installed on my phone (BenQ E72). The problem is that this file is not available as a regular file (when dumped) but as a directory which contains several files. I am a newbie in ROM cooking, but searching around here I discovered that this file is actually a XIP package.
My question is: is it possible to 'convert' this XIP package to a regular file, so that it could be placed inside a CAB?
Many thanks in advance.

TF3D config and .theme files question

This post has 2 questions.
Intro: I have a HTC HD flashed with Dutty's 3.7 XT ROM MSVC. I have used HD tweak as the tweak tool.(I am not sure this is relevant).
1) I downloaded Diamond tf3d config and installed it. I tried running it and get an error as soon as it starts. I tried the standard fixes including deleting the tweaks file as well as ensuring the "PressureThreshold" key is a DWORD. It makes no change, the program still gives an error. Could anyone suggest a fix.
2) I want to use tf3d config only for installation of .theme files. Is there an alternate app to do this? Also I know that i can just extract the .theme file as a zip file into the windows folder and restart touchflo for changes. However how do I remove the theme? I read somewhere that I can just delete the replaced files and the original files will be self re-generated. Is this true?
Please respond.
I Dont Believe That Diamond TF3D Config Functions Properly With New Manila Someone Feel Free To Correct Me If I Am Wrong
Well, now that you mention it I remember that tf3d config worked for the stock rom which has old manilla, and doesn't work with dutty's rom with new manilla which I am now using.
So if I cant use tf3d config does anyone know an alternate way of installing .theme files other than tf3d config.
Yeah I'm interested in alternative ways to install themes aswell, can't get TF3D Config to work at all
Yeah, I finally found out that tf3dconfig does not work with the new manilla. to install the theme, change the file extension of the theme file to zip, extract and replace the contents in the windows folder. Am not too sure how to uninstall.
All this information was found after 4 days of searches in xda. the search function on the site does seem to be strange as I ended up with the relevant result on the last page.
