Hi All,

I've managed to get into my PDA2K's extended ROM, and fill it with my desired cabs.

What I need to know, is how to make an image of that EXROM and deploy it to, say, 500 devices. Without having to unlock, load, the extended ROM on each individual device.
I guess, I need to make an .EXE file (or MS_.nbf), kind of like WM2003 Rom editor style, so I can just cradle the device, and flash the extended ROM.

Does anyone have any idea at all how I can do this?

thanks in advance !

One of the guys who is occasionally around here is working on this. Maybe a while yet.....

I'm working on it with Sprite Clone ( http://www.spritesoftware.com )

this looks like it may work.
It's not ideal, however, as it's not free :(

i'll post my results though.

So will still can't build a MS_.nbf file? I have a few Orange PDA's and Orange UK are being soo slow about the upgrades that I want to use my own image.

Am I stuck doing each one manually?

Thanks..

Hum, that would be nice, cooking your own nbf's.

post or pm ftp link of rar file of cooked extended rom, add no extras,
confirm that you have tested this with hard reset,
confirm that you will install ndf at own risk,
confirm that you have ship.exe file to reflash device if it goes wrong
