Windows Phone 7 cab files can be e-mailed and downloaded, by ansar. - Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking

Hi,
The attached cab file contains an exe file, common to all wp7 roms.
It is verified that can be sent with an e-mail and then can be downloaded to the e-mail sender windows phone device.
There is no need for any other app in order to do the task, you can try it, it is completly safe.
Regards, ansar.

Hi,
Did not try it yet but i think it will have no problem.
With xap in order to work one should include the required .xml files too.
May be it is important to test if hubs can also be passed this way, although are large sized.
But if it works for hubs etc, other brand devices like Samsung can be benefit too.

Have you read it right the first post of Ansar??

Maybe not but I can't install it on my WP7 device.
If I remember .cab is executable program for WM6.x
So I don't understand why he put it here if it's not installable.

WP7 cabs
Hi,
For your info, in all windows phone 7 ROMs there are 2 cab files included, these:
1. In OEM packages there is a special package (folder) named OEM_8x50_OS
... Inside this package there is the 1st cab named oemavatar.cab
2. In SYS packages there is a special package (folder) named MSAvatar
... Inside this package there is the 2nd cab named msavatar.cab
Both cabs have been verified that can e-mailed and then downloaded in the window phone 7 device.
The cab i included in the attachment in post #1 is made by me for testing purposes.
It includes an exe file that there is already inside the ROM of any windows phone 7 device.
It is also tested that the famus Totalcmd.cab can also be e-mailed and downloaded by the device.
Of course Total Commander cannot be executed by the wp7 device due to its header that is addressed to wm devices.
Next tests will include xap files like those of the system xap that are responsible for the Metro UI.
Regards, ansar.

Windows Media Player 10 MobileROM .nbf file found on HP site

Guys,
I searched but didn't see anything about WMP 10 ROM CAB being posted. I searched all combos I could think of so sorry if this is a repost.
HP released a ROM update for an HP rx3000 ipaq
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/HandheldiPAQ/us/download/22157.html
This file is a ROM update for the device. I downloaded the .exe and unzipped it, it had the .nbf update file but I'm not sure how to pull the individual cab files out of it, does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks,
If some one can get the password for the rom, I can try to extract the cab.
I would try the same ones used for the MDAIII rom. itsme was the one that came up with the passwords.
Well paul, I'm not going to go fishing for them. So if you want to post them or pm me with them great otherwise. :arrow: :twisted:
HP ROM is not locked!
Guys,
I just opened the HP nk.nbf file and it is not locked, so no password is needed.
Mikee4fun,
Since it is unlocked, can you pull out the cab for the media player 10?
Instructions and names of tools would work also, thanks for any and all help.
Paul.

This is no good. I've downloaded the SP29295.exe and dumprom the nbf file. It confirms my suspicion that it is an update of the HP iPAQ rx3700 OS files (including WMP10 mobile) and not just individual CAB files.
Unless someone can tell me what are the exact files in the WMP10? I've tested using other versions of ROM, and it seems like I've invariably replace files that affects the core integrity of the OS.
However, I still harbour the fantasy that we might port this stuff over to XDA2.
If you can't get to the right URL link, search at google with the following search string:
"HP iPAQ rx3700" "mobile media companion" update

Paul, the windows media 10 is not a cab install rather a part of the windows mobile 2003 se system. It would require someone to go find all the dll files, registry setting and core file install directory contents to make the whole thing work.

Hope that somebody could come out with a cab file for separate installation.
:roll:
lets just hope someone can rip the entire se OS from another device and make it work on XDAII. The 2.02, 2.06 and 2.20.07CHS (translated) are getting their bit by bit...
any got wmp 10 from the rom then pls do share.
thanks
jeet
list the dll files u need and i'll help u to get them coz i have i-mate jam ROM and i'v extracted all rom filed includes all exe and dll files
all i need a list of needed files 8)
I think the lack of knowledge on the files pretaining to Windows Media Player 10 are ther reason why someone is going to have to have a copy of the ROM and go routing about for the files.
Loading rx3700 nbf file into ER2003Edit asks for a password. Is there any way to find that password?!
installing WMP 10 to XDAII
hi guys!
-can someone tell me,is it posible to install WMP 10 to myxdaII?

Official localized Windows Mobile 6 images

Hello,
I noticed that Microsoft has just released translated version of the Windows Mobile 6 emulator images.
I tried to copy some files from the WM6 Pro French ROM (especially *.mui files) to add them into my cooked ROM to make a "french" ROM. It seams to work but the thing is that I'm able to extract only few files from ROM, I don't have permissions to copy the other files.
Is there any way to extract any ROM file from emulator image? I tried to copy them using Total Commander, Resco Explorer, RAPI, itsutils, without success... the problem occurs always with the same files. I noticed that many mui files were in used by system processes, that should be the problem.
It would be great if anyone knows how to get a file in emulator image !
Thanks.

Can you make a short explain on how to extract files from the emulator (if this is the way you obtain the files for Black 3) ?
Thanks man.
Launch the emulator and configure it run with Active Sync.
I did this some time back to extract the sound files from the old PPC2003 image. (There may be a much easier way. Active Sync is also very slow for transferring all the files in the ROM.)

Understanded.
But the really port that open the localiced images for us is the posibility to traslate one ROM (black 3.0, for instance) into any language, if i am not wrong.

Hi again.
I connected the emulator with PC using ActiveSync, but isn't possible to copy all the files in the ROM, cause same of them are blocked by the system if i access trought AS.
Is there any other way to extract all the content of the .BIN image?
Thanks and sorry for my insistence, but this emulator image can give me a chance to put WM6 in spanish
How to extract the files from an image emulator for noobs:
1- Dowload the images that you want here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...26f-a913-4f370a65a582&DisplayLang=en#filelist
2- Install them in your computer.
3- Take the image that you want from the installation folder.
For example, if you have downloaded the images for ESN language look in the folder "C:\Archivos de programa\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\PocketPC\Deviceemulation\0C0A":
The image for Hermes is: PPC_ESN_GSM_VR.BIN (I'm not 100% sure)
- Download Tadzio's imgfs excelent tools in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298327
- Unzip the tools along with the image in any folder.
- Rename the image to A.BIN (to make the next commands easier to type).
- Open a D.O.S. command window and perform these commands:
> NBSPLIT -emu A.BIN
(it generates two files: A.BIN.EXTRA and A.BIN.PAYLOAD)
> IMGFSFROMNB A.BIN.PAYLOAD IMGFS.BIN
(it generates the file IMGFS.BIN)
> IMGFSTODUMP IMGFS.BIN
And that's all. Files are dumped in /Dump directory. NOW IT'S TIME TO TRANSLATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ey man, glad to see you here
Thanks.
Edit: A little advice, in the great last post by VivaErBetis, when i use NBSplit, i must put -emu in small to work.
WHOOOOOOT DUTCH ALSO!!
Gonna try this..
but not now im going away for a few days..

Emulated Windows Mobile 6 ROM Dumping

Hi,
My first post here, hope to don't broke any Forum Rule.
I'm running an emulation of Windows Mobile 6 (SDK) taken from Microsoft,
and I've the necessity to study and extract system dlls (such as for PDB)
and looking for certain Undocumented Functions.
My question is, Is possible/necessary to make a dump of this Emulated WM6?
If yes can you please point my to the right links and threads?
Regards,
Giuseppe
Hi,
How can I extract DLLs and other resources from PPC_ITA_GSM_VR.BIN ?
I've tried with splitrom.pl but does not recognizes that format ( hash MD5 does not match)
I've also seen that there is another Suite of Tools ImageFsToolKit I've to use it? if yes can you point me how?
Hope in a Reply
Have a Nice Day,
Giuseppe
Check out this Emulator Kitchen thread
Many thanks for your precious help!
I've runned 1_UnpackEmuROM.cmd and the process worked correctly
\OEM
\SYS
\ROM
Now my question is, every dll have a directory that contains imageinfo.bin and various S00x files, which tool I've to use to assemblate it in the final DLL?
I've also seen a little bug into BuildOS.exe, the crash is caused by a not Catched Exception, precisely is caused from an unhandles System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException all you have to do to avoid that is to implement a try/catch block for this exception
Regards,
Giuseppe
Download the attachment
Unpack that
Place the folder of the dll (or exe) in the unpacked one. Note: The folder, not just the files.
Run ReversRecMode.bat
Look into the folder
It worked!
Many thanks!

[UTILITY] CabTools - ROM package <--> CAB converters and more. For ROM builders

These tools will let you create ROM package and install CAB files from each other. I know there are already tools for them, but I didn't like them, because they had many errors. Of course my programs may have errors too, but I like them better anyway Some of these tools use external applications which need .NET and/or VC++ runtimes to work properly!
cab2pkg
This utility will extract a cab and create a ROM package. (just like ervius package creator, but this will get the info from the _setup.xml file). Simply tell him the cab file name as parameter, and it will extract into a new directory. (Or if you don't like the command prompt, simply drag the cab onto this file, and it'll extract it)
pkg2cab
This utility does the reverse of the above. It creates a cab installer from a ROM package.
Usage: pkg2cab [Application Name] [Directory1] {Optional directory 2} {...}
For example: pkg2cab OneNote OneNote OneNote_lang_0409
If everything goes fine the programs should create a setup.cab
pkg2cab does only support "flat" directories, so if your directory contains modules (directories that look like files), then you have to copy the file out of them manually, and delete the directory
extractpkg
This application will extract a package from a ROM, using a SYAKR file removal information file XML. If you don't know what syakr is, then check these pages:
http://winmo.sztupy.hu/syakr.html
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=277390
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462841
Put this application into a kitchen with an extracted ROM and SYAKR
Enter command prompt and enter "extractpkg XMLfilenamewithoutextension" so for example if you want to extract the fmradio, you should write: "extractpkg fmradio"
This app does the same as SYAKR, but instead of deleting the files/registry settings/initff lines, it will copy them to a separate directory, and adds the appropriate things that are needed for a package, that BuildOs likes
BEWARE! The current SYAKR tasks are not designed for extractpkg to work, and sometimes the extraction might fail, or the created package would be defective. If so, please try to correct the XML file!
After you extracted a package you might use pkg2cab to create a distributable CAB installer
DL link: http://winmo.sztupy.hu/cabtools.html
OHH nice. someone just asked me to make a stock dialer cab for them.. this will make it easy
Amazing!, will try it indeed
wow nice tools i m going to make my own kitchen .. great work
It seems the included cabwiz might not work. You might try replacing it with a newer one: http://www.modaco.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=278074&view=findpost&p=954161

Are you sure your cab is located in the same folder as cab2pkg.exe? Only time I see an error is when I try dragging from outside the folder

You don't have to extract _setup.xml from the cab. If the cab contains _setup.xml then it should work fine. I only wrote to extract it separately, because then you can test whether xml2reg is working or not.
yes are in the same folder. i tried and in the same folder and in separate folders.
maybe should i try in command prompt? what command should i type there? i've tried drag & drop cab2pkg.exe space CorePlayer.v1.2.5.Build.4506.Pre.Regged.cab and i have the same result.

HTC MTeoR WM 6.X

Firstly, sorry if I have missed something. I have read the threads, and seen a 6.2 beta version, but this is quite old & I can't see an update to 'release'.
I want (need) to update a htc MTeoR from 5.0 to windows mobile 6.X to push my .NET 3.5 applications.
I am a total newb in doing this, so could some kind soul-
* point me at the definative & up to date version of this
* the instructions for doing this.
I have downloaded the Windows_Live_10.6.34.2500.cab, but have no idea how to load this (it has a load of files with a number as an extension, and then a _setup.xml that doesnt seem to run).
Sorry to be such a newb!
Regards, J.

run *.cab directly on device, do not extract on pc!
OK-
Thanks, works fine now.
All the other .cab downloads (E.g. to remove the registery restrictions for Certificates) were extract on PC then copy the appropriate file.
