U forgot to use HTC64_Extended_ROM_Tool.exe it makes nk.nb from nk.nbf
but once more, nk.nb nk.nbf, unless himalaya and universal have absolutely different types of flashing doesnt contain extrom. If i'm not wrong nk.nbf is only and only OS_ROM
and yes, its possible to extract files from OS_ROM as well as from Ext_ROM
no, no, no!
Himalaya roms are decompiled using xda2nbftool.exe
it needs to be supplied with the right password (different for radio, extrom and OS) for the NBF you are decompiling, this will give you a .nba that you can use with mamaich's IMGFStools
to add/delete/decompile.
nbh's, nb's and the typhoon tool have no part in himalaya roms.
sorry Midget i thought that all nbX formats are almost the same ie nbf in Uni contains same things as in Hima. Sorry PatrickJ for misleading U

Patrickj,
Search for llbasha's-WM5-AKU35pp16a1 rom in the forum. It is built in with the cooking utilities.
Maybe you can refer here and download the previous version of llbasha's rom with the cooking utilities and instructions:

Hi everybody,
I would like to cook Artermis rom for my own Dopod P800W. How can I do this and what about the tools for rom modification? Please suggest me and put the link for download.
Thank you very much.

The steps that I am using
1. Select the ROM that you want that has nbh extenstion
2. use nbhtool to extract the .nbh rom to nb files. Remane the os.nb to RUU_signed.nb
3. use the above link to get the tool to extract the RUU_signed.nb. This tool will extract all files in the rom and put them in folders--->There is a word doc in there that tells you what to do. It is a bit cumbersome but just follow it you will be fine.
4. in Sys folder, remove or add the folder you want--becareful here because there are folder interdpendent to each other so make sure you know what to add or delete.
5. use the Core tool again to build the new os.nb file. Make sure you follow the procedure in the work doc...
6. To build the nbh rom to load back to your device you will need htcrt tools. Copy the new os.nb and other nb files to the htcrt folder--this is what I do. Then run the htcrt program to build the new nbh romfile.
I hope the above will help you. I am building my own rom currently by using some component from B&Bv3.7 and the official wm6 v3.7 as the touchflow ROM. I have been playing with the above tools for sometimes now but still do not know what exactly what is required in each folder yet. Hard but fun...hihi.
attached...nbhtools and htcrt...just to save you sometimes. The core kitchen is in the above link. All programs run in DOS mode, BTW.
Thank you very much, I will try to use it for my rom cooking.
I made a tool p835abisplit2 previously for ROM rebuilding, however that tool only fully works for P565 and earlier devices, which has many limitations for P835 and newer devices. So now I rewrite it to have full functions!
Applicable Devices:
- Asus P835
- Garmin Asus M20, M10
Usage:
- Decompiling ROM
1. p835abisplit3 <abi/exe file>
2. If input is an exe file, then a decrypted abi file will be extracted, which can be used with the Asus internal flash tool (Not available here)
3. 13 files are extracted, content on each file is explained in their file names
3.1 txt file is the partition definition, you can customize the abi by editing this file
3.2 OS file is in B000FF format. Use osnbtool -sp twice to get a correct nb file
3.3 EXTROM is a standard FAT Image, you can open and modify directly with WinImage
- Rebuilding ROM
1. Modify txt file as you need (Optional)
2. Rename updated file to their original names
2.1 For building OS file, use osnbtool -extra os.nb 0x8 and osnbtool -2bin -CutHeader
3. p835abisplit3 /b <abi/exe file>
4. out.abi is created, which can be used with the Asus internal flash tool (Not available here)
5. If input file is an exe file, out.enc (Encrypted abi) and out.exe (Flash utility with updated ROM and region patch)
- Warning
1. This tool now is too powerful that you can easily brick your device if you modify the txt file incorrectly, so take care! (However it is proved to work by hdubli)
2. This tool is checked to create identical abi file if you rebuild without touching anything. If this is not the case with your base ROM, don't continue cooking and let me know!
** Please note that if you modify the partition layout, the length of text must be < 24 bytes **
If this post is left too long without updates, you can check new versions at http://www.studiokuma.com/tools/?section=misc-e
Great job, man!
If you can update the tool for extracting the Acer ROMs that can be used for extracting NeoTouch S200's ROMs of version 3.xxx, that'll be excellent!!!

EXTROM from P835
Great tool, but there is still one backlog. As tool still cant directly extract extrom resp.ASUS_ROM from P835 (its working pretty well with M10,M20,P565). Even at the end is extrom located in os.nb0. After such impementation it will be perfect tool
No, don't trust the tools reports the FATFS at last partition of os.nb0. It is a dummy partition in all new ROMs from any vendor.
As I can tell from the G5 abi, there is no extrom in it.
EXTROM from P835
You are partially right as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles doesnt contains any usual ext partition.
But how you explain that standard EXTROM files are parts of OS.NB0 ?
Isnt so usual that those EXT files are part of main image. These are typical extrom file, see what I extracted :
P835 is bit specific, as not contains just dummy file for extrom package.
And one more question regarding P835, as you probably know there is problem with relatively small ROM space.
Even I removed lot of crap files, ROM image is still showing same size. Pdocread is showing total 200MB on DSK1.
But available is only 97.18MB.
Anyone cooking for the M10?
Works on M20 Rom Thai version.
Also, where can I find Asus internal flash tool?

asus m20 cook rom
Thanks for your good tool, I am now cooking a rom of asus m20 and I have been successed to work out a file called "flash.bin" final, would you please tell me how to do to make it change to say "m20.exe". Or do you have any suggestion eg. use bootloader. Thank you very much. I really need your help.
Firstly, your ROM needs to be extracted by a exe file instead of abi file first.
When you need to build exe file, use the /b switch.
Extract: p835abisplit3 xyz.exe
Build: p835abisplit3 /b xyz.exe
Then out.exe will be the new flash utility with your changes and region lock patched.

Thanks for your answer, I still meet problem even I use your method, so let me give more detail as follow:
1. I have split the xyz.exe with your tool and a xyz.abi and 13 more files extracted.
2. And I also use some kitchen to make a new rom file called flash.bin.
3. I rename "flash.bin" to "Os.bin" (one of the 13 files)
4. Lastly, I follow your instruction to build ie. p835abispilt3 /b xyz.exe, a out.abi will come out
So, how should I do to change this "flash.bin" to become the xyz.exe for flashing. Your help should be most appreiate. Thanks
my asus m20 device is bricked, any idea? Please help
Jtag
Does anyone have experience with jtag on P835 ?
Or is there any other way how to recover dead bootloader on MSM Asus devices ?
i can't open p835abisplit3.exe
how can i open
M930
Hi Stark Wong,
please could you modify p835abisplit3.exe in order to correctly work with M930 ?
See error message :
I have updated the tool to support longer string, that should fix your issue.
Download it in first post.
To others: You must have the original EXE to form output exe. Just pass the EXE when building, it will read the new ABI and generate a new EXE file. You can't generate EXE when you only get the ABI file.
Thanks
Thanks a lot for fix.
Note that even you will incorretly use this tool, nearly always is way how to recover.
