what part are you having trouble?

[jimmymotek]

This is what I did :
after extracting the OS with typho5.exe
prepare_imgfs.exe 80040000-OS_0.nb -nosplit
viewimgfs.exe imgfs_raw_data.bin

than I wanted to edit the "dump" directory (I don't know how to put different files in diffrent directories) , any how i've replace few files. and than I run :

BuildImgfs.exe

make_imgfs.exe 80040000-OS_0.nb

than nb2nbf.exe and after all that I "burned" it into the device
(RUU) and than the device stucked.

So what I'm doing worng ?

your OS address is most problably wrong. it should be; 80040000

[jimmymotek]

I'm not able to find it out the file "initflashes.dat" in dump folders. Where can I find the file?

[molski]

It must be in the rom, if you cannot find it type in a command line console in the dump directory "attrib -h -s initflashes.dat", that surely would let you see it. But normally you will see it without doing this.

Molski , Do you have any suggestion ?

[molski]

Molski , Do you have any suggestion ?

Extract one of my Roms, replace my OS.nb file with yours and cook it again.
Use ALL files including IPL/SPL so you will have to put 7 files in nb2nbf tool, if you need all the correct addresses, PM me.


Regards,

Molski

[jimmymotek]

is it possible that my problem was that i just tried to "burn" OS and Ext. rom only ?

going to tray it again.
(BTW : is there a number of times i can burn my rom , i think i've done a hundred time)
thanks

[jimmymotek]

still not working , stuck at the logo screen (it does write the spl,Ipl etc)

here are the address i used :

i think the problem is with something else ,
what version of imgfs you using (link ?)
can you write down the list of commands you writing
(i've been dealing with it quite few days with no luck)
I would really appriciate any help....
thanks again
