Passwords for ROM files

[JamesManios]

Is there a site where all the known passwords for all the different ROMS are published? I have the passwords for 2.06, 1.72 and 1.66 but I'm trying to open the original 1.03.00 ROM files. ER2003Edit tries to guess with some defaults but none seem to work?

I tried searching, but didn't find anything for that ROM version.

Thanks

There is a very good chance that the 1.03 ROM files are not encrypted at all. Try viewing one with a hex editor and if the content is readable (i.e. contains real words not just all gibberish) then they are not encrypted.

Hey DCS, (btw: excellent work on the 2.06 ROM).

I think you're right. I've found words in the radio ROM, and the ExtRom... These files both end in .nb where the OS (which is encrypted ends in .nbf)

So I have a question then, (if you can lend a hand). I have the original ROM from HTC, (at least according to the iMate tech who sent it to me). It's the original 1.03.00 OS, Radio 1.05.12. When I run the downgrade it writes the OS and Ext but erases the radio and gets to 12% of the 1.05.12 radio and fails? Is it possible it's because this radio is not encrypted and the HimaUpgradeUt.exe thinks it can't read it? Shouldn't it have failed at the ExtRom? Using ER2003Edit it is not able to open any of the files so I don't know what the password UpgradeUt.exe is using to try to re-encrypt these two files?

Thanks,

What is the version of the upgrade program?

[JamesManios]

The updater (HimaUpgradeUt.exe) is...

Version 0.0.7.0

That is ancient :) Maybe you could zip up all the nb* files plus the upgrade programs and send them to me. If so let me know and I'll send you a URL to use. Hopefully I can convert them to use a later upgrade program.

Sure, I would appreicate the help. I think people might be interested in this update because it doesn't seem to care what you have installed it will overwrite anything and it's very clean; before vendors added any of their stuff to the Ext ROM.
