How to open new ROMs (like ITA) with ER2003Edit

[softworkz]

Hi,

just a tip for opening the latest ROM files with ER2003Edit:

ER2003Edit has a file type selector in the file open box which is by default set to autodetect.
in autodetect mode ER2003Edit tries all encryption passwords it knows for any type of ROM (NK,Radio,ms_)
when using autodetect mode and your ROM does not get detected and you enter the correct password manually, you will receive an "Error accessing image files" message
To prevent this message choose the correct type of ROM (ms_.nbf) from the file type selector of the file open dialog and enter the password

ER2003Edit can open and edit all types of ROM files now in order to let you change the language and device type settings (to prevent country code error)

Tip: Opening ROM files is always faster when you do not use autodetect mode!
BTW here are the passwords for the ITA-Rom:

ms_.nbf: 0x20040305
nk.nbf: 0x20040304
radio_.nbf 0x20040306
A new version of ER2003Edit will have these passwords built in, but I currently do have no time for a new release just to include the passwords.

Enjoy!

Softworks, are the the old passwords hardcoded into the app?

I reckon on your next update, maybe you could just make the app read an XML (or text, whatever) file with the passwords. So you can easily just add passwords in the future onto the text without having to recompile a newer version.

Also, since when talking about XDAII files, we're only talking about 3 filenames which never change. Maybe you could make a load process to simply check the filename which has been opened and use the corresponding "file process" to open it. Sort of like instead of autodetect when you open files. Have a simple check that checks wether one clicked either of the 3 files, then have a script that mimmicks selecting manually the filetype instead of "autodetect." That should eliminate the "nuances" of opening files (especially helpful for us n00bs hehe)

Cheers,
Carlo

Hi All,
I have images which can't open by ER2003edit V1.2.20, it say the password is incorrect. Anyone can help or teach?

The rom image is from O2, the rom version is 1.60 or higher.

Here is a patched version of ER2003Edit.exe that has the new 3 passwords. Auto detection now works. :lol:

Just unzip then copy it over installed ER2003Edit.exe usually found in
C:\Program Files\softworkz\ER2003Edit\ER2003Edit.exe

Any reason I am getting shcksum errors?

I chenaged the content of ms_.nbf save it, and tried to flash it, but I gor error 122 - checksum error?

Any known reason for that?

Looks like I am out of my depth but its worth a try

I have a blueangle and have worked out that there are more tools on in Himalaya than for us.

I have further worked out that the upgrade works in the same way.

So I would think that this tool does, Well I am either wrong or just dumb.

Is my undersatnding correct that this application would only have the paswords for the at that time Known rom realeases.

Is my understanding that even with a password out of a xda3nbtool this toll will not work if you add it in the dialog.

Thus I seem to find that if I fill in the device name, op and lang as well as pasword I fail, same is true if leave them blank.

Please help me out or point me in the correct direction

Thanks

Hi,

does anyone know a program or a howto for editing Asus MyPal ROM Updates? In fact I only have to add a single file.

Thanks for any response
