yup just like any other NBH file, just extract the exe file the sprint ROM came in (7zip or WinRAR can do it just fine)

find the RUU_Signed.nbh file and rename it Rhodimg.nbh and put to SD card

done

I just downloaded the new SPRINT wm 6.5 ROM and I love it except for one thing.........My battery doesnt last a whole day!! Does anyone have a fix or a cab file that I can download to overcome this issue??

Thanks

First, I love the rom overall. It is way better than the original stock rom, and for me, the best stock rom I've seen Sprint release on any of the phones I've had, which are quite a few (I'm a phone junkie and change every year thanks to the Premier status option).

I do have one question: I missed an alarm yesterday afternoon, and fortunately I was already awake, just dozing in my recliner. I've noticed when the screen is turned off with the top button, when you wake it back up with the same button the clock suddenly starts to catch up to the actual current time. Currently I have the clock cab fix installed but with it the alarm never sounded. Any one else use the alarm? It reminds me of the HTC Mogul and the complaints early on with it and missing alarms.

been using this rom for 2 days now & i must say i like it! max-manila works perfect with it, & its better than the custom roms i used because i dont have 2 combine a bunch of cabs & reg edits 2 make it sprint specific. the topaz notification cab that i used on 6.1 also works on this rom which is a major plus 4 me.

does anyone out there have a cab file where a user can download a RESET BUTTON APP onto your phone instead of having to take off the back cover all the time to perform a soft reset?

Thanks

There are so many cabs out, and then's there's the reg edit technique. Which cab includes the reg edit? Like I said, on the 6.1 I just installed Mighty Mike's ICS cab (not reg edits) and had no problem at all.

For anyone's who flashed to the new stock Sprint Stock 6.5 ROM and "can tether", what were the absolute steps in order that you did to enable stealth tethering again? I know that by mixing the cabs and the reg edits trying to get this to work is probably part of my problem. I'm going to re-flash the Sprint Stock 6.5 ROM (for a clean start), so I need to know exactly what steps to take. Thanks.

all i did was install the ICS_and_WModem_Fix and restarted than when i connect to the pc i choose the storage option, not internet sharing or active sync options. Next i open start menu and go to internet sharing and open the program. Than choose sprint instead of phone as a modem and than hit connect. i also use this cab HTC Wi-Fi Sharing for sharing over wifi i have attached both cabs i use. i hope this helps you

Try this, I've used it on both stock roms and custom and have had no problems with it.

I use quickmenu (as a taskmgr too), but I did drill a small hole in my cover for this reason too.

(1) I was able to USB tether via ICS and WModem Fix cab and wifi tether via HTC WifiSharing cab before (no registry edits) with no problem. After installing the update, I cannot tether with either. I don't want to use PdaNet because I've read it is not as consistent as the cabs. I live in a rural area where broadband is almost non-existent and was excited that the cab worked on 6.1. The ICS cab downloads and creates a Sprint option, but the PC will not connect to the network. After clicking connect, the status changes to "check usb cable" and just stays there. Nothing is wrong with the cable, because Active Sync works fine. I installed Mr. X Tethering Tracking Hotfix cab, and it didn't help. I installed Calkulin's Tethering Hotfix cab, and it didn't work either. I even downloaded Merlin (Marlin) registry editor & attempted my first registry edit following Boo Boo's instructions, and that didn't work. Someone please tell me what the problem could be. And, no, I don't get the 67 error. I have an active data connection, but the tethering just won't work. Should I reflash the 6.5 ROM to clear the cabs and registry edits (remove programs doesn't remove some of these cabs)?

(2) Problem on 6.1 and now 6.5. Seems I have a ghost text message. My Inbox folder path is showing 1 unread text message, though, there isn't one. Against my own will, I even cleared out my text folder (in, out, draft, sent & deleted), and it still shows. Any suggestions on this as well? Besides those two issues, I like the 6.5 update.

Sprint TouchPro2 (stock 6.5)

on stock rom's the first cab or tweak needed is to kill the cmguardian. I have made some cabs to do this, see my sig. then any tweaks you apply after will survive soft resets.

did you check the outlook folder in messeging? there is always a new welcome email in there.
