I've got the .exe file and it simply wants to self-install in a directory with my JJ. So, which directory should I try to install this then?
thanks.
edved

Just extract the rom required using winrar or similar (normally done by right clicking on the file and selecting extract)
donwload the file "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe"
Copy this file into the directory
Run it and the Country ID error will come out, run it again right after, and it should work

Italian to English
I purchased an imate jasjar in Italy last week. The salesperson confirmed that I can change the language from Italian to English. But when I contacted the Imate people they say it is not possible, Can someone guide me?
Thanks Felician

Hi,
The way i use is run the update rom and when appear the Country error, open the windows explorer and copy the folder in the temporary folder to a new location, then put the file ...noID.exe in the new folder.

[Q] Converting raw BIN dump to something useful

Hi All
I've searched and not found much info on this.
I've got a dump of an HTC HD7 using the Riff box (JTAG). The file is a 512MB BIN file.
Basically I would like to be able to see the files inside it. Ideally I would like to see the files/folders/structure inside the dump. I don't know how difficult or easy this is, so forgive me if I'm asking for the impossible. But is there a way of converting the bin file to something like a cab/nbh or even the files/folders so that I can view them in explorer or some similar tool?
At the moment I'm viewing the file in a hex editor trying to carve out certain files. But I figure since the file system and structure is known on Windows Phone 7, there may be a way of converting the entire image to a better support format.
So if anyone can suggest any tools or ways of doing this, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks

How do you use the jtag to get a dump of it? I don't know if you can use htcrie or not (search in this forum for the tool)

I use the Riff Box which is supposed to a dump of the ROM/NAND, which it did, into a .bin file.
I've tried htcrie, but it doesn't load the bin file. I've tried looking for a tool that converts the .bin to a nbh, but found nothing so far

Where do you get a riff box from? I want to dump my rom. I would look into the Windows Mobile threads and see if there is a tutorial OR pm ansar or xboxmod and see if they can help out. If possible can you provide how to obtain an use the riff box?

nbh or nb it's for bootloader to write to nand, so it will have diff format with nand dump.

I'm not sure. I took a complete dump of the HD7 and it gave me a 512MB file in a .bin format. I believe that includes the bootloader and everything else, but I could be wrong.
I don't mind what kind of file it gets converted to, as long as I can view the files inside. Thanks

I've looked on that thread and have downloaded the tools. I've also messaged the author of the tool, but not got a reply yet. It looks like the tools which does work on the raw dump/bin files are for the logo and bootloader, not the entire image.
I'm still working on it, but there seems to be a lot of info that I need to sort though.

You may use Qualcomm tool from riff plugin. It's view all partitions

Missed this one.

[TUT] Firmware Upgrading Without Dataloss!

Hi everyone
you know that a big problem of upgrading using multiloader is that all of applications and our data will be deleted due to a firmware upgrade
*This method is found by mylove90 so all credits goes to him
special thanks to mylove90, adfree, and everyone who have helped this developement
Upgrading using this method is by using "PFS" file like kies upgrades
1. first you should prepare two firmwares, one is the firmware which is installed on your phone and the second is the firmware you want to upgrade to
2. Then you need to extract files of the new and the old firmware so download Trix, Select input file (You can make PFS file from a mix between FFS , ShpApp , CSC (Not Rcrs compressed part)) but just FFS is enough
then go to "scripts" tab and select "fs_shell.trx" and add it then run the script and ...
3.then download Winmerge (google it!) its an open source application which compares two files or folders with one click
then compare the new firmware folder and old firmware folder
then in view tab choose the files we want for upgrading
4. the files which are needed are "Different files" and "Unique files" from new firmware, so copy them to a new folder
also the "unique files" from old firmware must be deleted so "copy path names" and change path names to the correct pattern ex:"/appex/sys/blabla"
5. we can delete these files during PFS upgrade by adding the file paths to "/debug/PfsDeleteList.txt" file which we'll include it in our PFS
5. every thing is done
now just download wave_remarker and in FW view select "open dump" and select the files which we put into a new folder!
make a new folder named "debug" and put a txt file named "PfsDeleteList.txt" which contains the path of files which should be deleted during pfs upgrade
then save file as PFS
6. open multiloader and first check "boot change" and flash the new firmware's boot files
then again flash other firmware files (which does not contain FFS, CSC, shpapp (just the files which you extracted)) and includes pfs file
*note that no checkboxes in this level should be checked in multiloader

Thanks I will test this method

I have some questions from who have made this method
when i try dumping just FFS and making pfs of that in flashing it says error: shpapp write
when i try dumping FFS and Shpapp it says error: csc wite
when i try dumping FFS and shpapp and csc it says error: pfs write
edit
for deleting extra files i try putting all file paths into pfsdeletelist.txt
should i use _CSC_FsDeletelist.ini for some of them?

Sorry
I got no clue what you did wrong
Never tested the update from bada 1.2 to 2.0
Best Regards

when i tried bada 2 to bada 2 upgrade
everything was ok but at the end it says CMD_USB_LOCK fail
i could successfully turn my phone on but after some seconds a blue screen appears and it says:
platform "so" checking is failed
Platform "so" modification is detected!!!

Then you didn't edit the file handling .so signatures to add in it new signatures
You can find such a file in the data folder with .so files
It is named : GeneralSoInfo.so.sig
Edit it with Notepad++ only
If you don't know WTH you are doing please just stop !
Best Regards

Its not ever easy.
Depend really exact on Firmwareversion and what you want or what you did...
NOT TRY if you need data on your handset.
At your own risk.

Feel free to learn.
Your handset will not explode, BUT again.
Security since XXJL2 is improved... since bada 2.0 higher.
All mistakes or Errors made by oyu leads to Security fail...
So you can loss data.
Backup before all you can.
Good luck.

I havent touched .so files ever
but as this is a custom rum which i want to upgrade to maybe the problem is here

This Error message is for wide range of Security issues...
Only if you enable Debug Level to see Blue Screens for more details...
Example for Blue Screen is attached...
1.
Post your Blue Screen...
Maybe we can help you...
2.
Or upload your files.
MAYBE someone has time to check...
Maybe with password and password only via PM, to prevent noobs to kill their handsets...
3.
To add any other Apps is not good idea... also leads to fail...
Security HIGH

Now i have full flashed to another rom so i dont have that bluescreen to post it for you
but bluescreen is showing just that 2 lines i wrote
first of all i'll try another fw to upgrade to
maybe the problem was with this fw
if again i failed, i'll try to upload my files (cuz my internet speed is very low!!)

Oh WTF i think i've found the problem
when i make a pfs using wave remarker then i add it into multiloader, it writes s8500 in front of pfs
but my device is s8530
how can i solve this problem
i havent seen such settings in wave remarker

i myself found a solution for this and made a correct pfs
but again multiloader says CMD_USB_LOCK fail

I think the best way for me is to make a video of what i do yes?
and someone do me a favor and kindly check whats my fault
I'll make a video in the next days

but again multiloader says CMD_USB_LOCK fail
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Depend what you did... you could ignore this from Multiloader...
I see this Info often if I play with my modified apps_compressed... or do other stuff. Then Autorestart not work with Multiloader...
Try to press ON OFF... (hold Button to force Restart)
At your own risk.
Not during Bootloader write.
Best Regards

I have encountered this error while using modified apps_compressed and rebooting was fine
but in this case when i try to reboot i see the blue screen or the handset stops on the first screen:
"WAVE 2 S8530"

"WAVE 2 S8530"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
apps_compressed is PROTECTED by Bootloader...
It checks Integrity...
For easier handle unsecdload.fota...
This is only for S8500 available.
For S8530 you can't easy use modified apps_compressed... WITHOUT dataloss.
As you have to flash more then once ...
So all data is erased... before handset can start proper...

yes your right
but why we can't upgrade from bada 1.2 to bada 2?
by the way i've tried bada 1.2 to bada 1.2 upgrade and bada 2 to bada 2 upgrade but same problems

Samsung did some funny things...
"New" Bootloader, new Memory Map...
Compare adresses in Multiloader... so NOT same position...
So major changes... maybe not impossible for Samsung to convert some...
Anyway. Its Security reason and to have "clean new" OS.
Maybe also to clean all Spoofer...
I have not seen whole Video...
No idea yet.
Maybe someone else...

[TUTORIAL] How To Extract Files From a TAR.MD5 Stock ROM (SPH-L710)

I recently did this for the E4GT and have been asked to do it here as well.
I've received a TON of PM's and emails asking how to do this and I've decided to do a write-up for everyone. Now to start off, this does not automatically make you a Super Duper Developer, this does not show you how to make your own TAR ROMs, nor does it show you how to make your own Odin One-Clicks. What it does do is show you how to pull files from those stock leaked/official ROMs so that you can proceed to make yourself into a Super Duper Developer!
In essence if the Developer knows what they are doing they could use this method to extract all the files from the build and could then add them to a ZIP and have a stock odexed ROM within minutes and do it all through Windows! Depending on time I may or may not do a tutorial on that as well...
So let's begin!
We've all seen those pesky TAR.MD5 packages that we can flash through Odin. How often have you wanted to look inside them and see what is inside before flashing? There are several ways to do it and the most common answer requires Linux and Dsixda's Kitchen utility. This tutorial gives you the ability to do that through Windows and without having to extract the full ROM. These instructions are specific to the Samsung Galaxy S3 (all variants) but can be used on most Samsung Galaxy phones.
Each TAR.MD5 release contains multiple files. Each of these files corresponds to a specific partition on your device. These files are formatted to be mounted by your device but not by a computer. We will be converting them from a .img.ext4 partition type to an ext4.img type partition so we can mount them and read them through Windows. For this tutorial we will be opening up the system.img.ext4 (the system files partition).
Before you dive in there are a few things you'll need.
- A PC running Windows.
- A stock TAR.MD5 release. Several are available at www.rwilco12.com.
- DiskInternals Linux Reader (must be installed on the Windows PC). You can download DiskInternals Linux Reader here.
- SGS2toEXT4 Utility available here. *Be sure to extract the JAR file from the ZIP archive.
- 7-Zip available here.
For the rest of the tutorial please visit my site: www.rwilco12.com
Enjoy!

Awesome! First!

great it's work fine with me on windows8

Unfortunately no. That part does require Linux but this could help simplify the process if you prefer a Windows environment.

You need to extract it from the img file by saving it. After extracting you'll need to package it in a ZIP.

What device and what files are you using?

Using windows Vista x64 the file is a I537UCUCNE3 stock odin image. I created a .img file using ext4 tool you posted but the Linux viewer says invalid

The image here shows my created .img file on the left, the Linux reader on the right and the error in the middle

This tutorial is no good anymore.

Finally !!
I found how do that after to waste a day to search one real solution.
Is only to use the ClassyKitchen free version for windows.
I found it here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/tool-classykitchen-android-roms-t3862584
Basically, after to open the program, you will choose "create new project" on the tab "Projects utils", and choose the firmware from PC or from mobile root. So, the program will extract the folders and files to PROJECT/system folder, and you will can access them by windows explorer, including the app folder with all original apks.
I was looking for a way to restore the calculator apk after delete it before to find another to replace it.

Please can someone advise me on how to flash the pit file, I have found a file online: SM-T320.pit.txt but odin doesn't detect the file. Can anyone provide me with a proper .pit file please? Just one more thing I can't seem to get rid of the Samsung live demo unit logo when the device starts does anyone have any ideas? I'm on bootloader T320XXXU1ANA_LLK although I am rooted /system shows as R/O. I have a custom recovery TWRP . I am on the latest firmware BTU Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Do not try to flash a pit file. Doing so is one of the few things that you can do that could permanently brick your device. Unless you really, really, really know what you are doing, then don't risk it.

I have found the SM-T320 pit file online. It's not my work, I have not tested it, I don't know if it's the real thing, saved it just in case I need it someday...
I can send it to you but I suggest you use it as absolutely your last resort. Don't ask me for help, I have not used it or tested it.

Is there any chance you could extract your pit file using EFS Professional? It is a free program on xda thread.
my sytem size shows as 9gb and only 500mb used... i am running CM11 nightly which is why you're used space shows as more. Yours shows a completely different size of total system storage.
Thanks for responding... i have had a headache the last 4 days.
Do you know how to use the pitfilename.pit.txt? I cant get it to register in Odin.
