4. Once extracted you will have a folder that contains two folders. One will have 3 files in it. (nk.nbf, ms_.nbf, and radio.nbf) The two you want are the nk.nbf (the core OS) and the ms_.nbf (the ExtROM).


looks like the show stops here for me. can't find a rom w/those three files. only the nk.nbf. so the ms_.nbf file, for me is MIA. how come a working/editable rom wasn't posted w/this tutorial????

was gonna jus skip over that but got stopped again at the "dump folder." where is it?

I'm seeing people say doin this is easy, not quite understandin where that's comin from. especially when one gets stuck a quater of the way through.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

having issues with the kitchen method as well. due to the fact that the wince cab manager isn't exporting the registry. it says that feature isn't available unless i register the program. maybe that's the step i'm missing. please correct me if i'm wrong. Thanks.

This May Sound Stupid But Im New To This, Is There A Way To Take What I Have On My PPC And Back It All Up So I Could Just Reflash It To The Way It Is Right Now If I Ever Wanted To?

use a backup program such as Sprite or SPB.

Will It Back Things Up To The Proper Flashable Formats?

I believe Sprite Backup claims to flash across different ROM versions, if that's what you're asking. You'll still need to flash the ROM first, then restore your backup.

It sounds as though you want to set up your phone the way you want it, then extract the ROM and save it on your PC for later flashing. I don't know of an easy way to dump the contents of the ROM currently on your phone.

Which ROM are you using? I suggest you try the 1.0.4 kitchen and build yourself a custom ROM. Then you can save the nk.nbf and flash back to it whenever you want. You could then use Sprite Backup to back up/restore all of your personal settings.

Depending on which settings you typically change, you could also create a "custom settings OEM" and cook it into your ROM. For example, if you always set the brightness to 8 and map the left key to "Note.exe", you could build a custom registry entry OEM so that the settings persist after a hard reset.
