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.

wouldn't we all be better off if we just got along?

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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501871

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

Sorry to say, it didn't work for me
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.

Take a look here for a detailed explanation of what this file is, and what we need to do to work with it.
** MOD EDIT **
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 ?

Thanks for giving a heads up, silentP, but just a note, what I posted was the CONTENTS of the .nbh, rather than a mirror of the .nbh itself. No one has yet posted a mirror of the .nbh, I can do that now.

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

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:

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?

How'd you host the files on my own computer
Also you need to give us an IP address we can access outside of your LAN, dont give us a number starting with 127, 10, or 192, those are all local. I recommend DynDNS or No-IP for dynamic IP updaters. if you need help PM me

Thanks, I've been using this thread quite often (I stupidly delete ROM's after I extracted stuff I need so I need to re-download them once the extraction business is on again... ). Having to look for it on page 3 or 4 is horrible so here we go, I get it back on the front page.

I have no problems!

Can someone please explain to me and I'm sure others would appreciate, what is all the wwe ruu tmous stuff mean. I look at that list and barely have a clue what I should be flashing if I want the latest, what belongs to what provider etc. Also if your s off aren't there quite a few of these that if you flash you will semi brick?
I have tried finding a breakdown of all this info and had no such luck. If someone does not feel like explaining all that can u just tell me the latest tmobile released rom and if its safe to flash with s off and eng bootloader? Thank u.

WWE = World Wide English (?), means about as much as "global release". A version of a ROM which is released to one could say "unbranded" devices coming from HTC directly, intended for worldwide use. No G2, no Vodafone, just pure HTC.
RUU = Rom Update Utility, a Windows OS executable file which flashes a ROM onto your device, partially or fully. A so called "official RUU" is usually a ROM updater coming from HTC, still in it's untouched state, unmodified, means no root pre-included, no locks removed, no traps defused, just pure HTC.
TMOUS = T-Mobile USA. Questions?
I look at that list and barely have a clue what I should be flashing if I want the latest
Click to expand...

Technically quite incorret but it will do as an explanation: we all have the same devices, they are just distinguishable by the software put on them. Since the hardware is the same, all devices worldwide will run every "Vision" ROM there is. So basically, as normal in IT, take the one with the highest number and youre good to go 1.34 is older than 1.72 is older than 1.84 is older than (...). The stuff after 1.34.xxx is for the "release/sales region" a ROM is intended for. 405 for example is more or less western europe, so ROMs released for the german/austrian/swiss/whatever market are 1.xx.405.z ROMs.
what belongs to what provider etc.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Doesn't matter, a Vision is a Vision. A "provider ROM" just means it will have some provider specific junk loaded as opposed to a "clean" HTC ROM. Exception: G2 vs DesireZ. G2 is "pure" Android (with T-Mo junk) where as DesireZ get Sense from HTC.
Also if your s off aren't there quite a few of these that if you flash you will semi brick?
Click to expand...

Semi brick? If you got a semi brick unbrick it by flasing something which works. Beauty of flashing HTC devices. Ever heard of locked Motorola bootloaders? A pain in the hole, and very much at that...
...and if its safe to flash with s off and eng bootloader?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
S-OFF and ENG Bootloader means your device is basically (very stupid things to do excluded) bomb proof. In this combination there is almost always a way to get it back to a working state. One thing I would consider: I'd take a modified, pre-rooted ROM, an "official" ROM might close a loophole used to root and crack and hack the device.

You'd need a custom recovery for that. And without ROOT you can't load a custom recovery. Hmm... you could temp-root, put recovery on, factory reset (wipe temp root stuff off device), pull a backup, and then perm-root. This way you'd get a quite clean backup. Anyone disagree?

I'm not able to download a single file, either download never starts or it just stops randomly at any point during the download have not been able to download more than 50mb

This may be obvious but which country is AUS as in RUU_Vision_Hutch_AUS_1.85.861.3_Radio_12.28h.60.14 0f_26.06.02.27_M_release_172438_signed.exe ?

[Q] Which Rom Do I Flash???

Hi can some one tell me what the difference between [DFT Freedom ROM] Mango 7720 Schubert Custom ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=783 and [ROM]XBmod HD7 V 1.01 Build 7720 [25/09] with Custom Cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276490?
I was having a problem with updating to Mango Final while remaining unlocked to the point I had to flash back to 7.0.7004.0. Now working my way back up and was wondering if I could use either of those roms and what the advantages of them are?

DFT's ROM doesn't work with XBox Live games. Go with XboxMod's ROM. I'm using that one and it has been great.

Okay thanks for the advice. At what point can I flash that rom as I am starting from scratch downgraded to 7.0.7004.0 working my way up to Final Mango Fully unlocked.
Can you advise me how to get to the point where I can flash this rom?
Thanks

HSPL your device (it's a sticky on this forum). Then flash the ROM. You don't need to do anything else.

Thanks I found the sticky you spoke of and now looking into it I saw on the first page about WP7's HSPL's being removed "Last edited by Cotulla; 11th September 2011 at 12:25 PM.. Reason: removed HD7s". But I did see my Mid PD29110 as being one that is supported. What does WP7F stand for?

What Cotulla means is that the HTC HD7S (a modified form of the HD7, sold through AT&T in the USA), isn't supported by HSPL. A first-gen HD7 (as opposed to the "1.5-gen" HD7S) should work just fine. I've used RSPL myself on my HD7, though not to flash the firmware entirely.
It's been reported that it's actually better to install HSPL early in the update chain. If you don't, you'll have to downgrade the bootloader (versions 4 and up, used in Mango, apparently don't work for R/HSPL) first. The flashing process completley wipes the phone, so aside from updating once using Zune just to create a backup you can restore to retail with, there's no point.

We've seen it the first time, eefdriehuis.
If you don't know - don't touch it. You could (perma-)brick your device.

This System Packages working correct for my device... only not support some oem apps...

Screenshots
Can anyone confirm whether 7.8 has native screenshot capability built in?

I have cooked my rom but marketplace says "Marketplace is not available in your region." why?

This version doesn't have one yet.

Pathetic
That is pathetic. If 3rd party apps on rooted phones can take screenshots, I wonder why Microsoft can't spend some resource to bake this in the OS. Not being able to do this in 2012 is embarrassing; even iOS can do this. And no, they can't blame the windows CE kernel for this one.
