[xsign]

Device: HTC 4350 - Shipped with original WM6 ROM. O² XDA Terra

Use a registry editor to change the following values (or just download the ExtendedROM_HTC4350.reg.zip (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=41641&d=1181983775) and run the .reg file from your device):



[HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC1]
"DefaultFileSystem"="FATFS"
"Folder"="Extended_ROM"
"MountHidden"=dword:00000000
"Name"=""
"PartitionDriver"=""

[HKLM\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\TRUEFFS_DOC1]
"Bootphase"=dword:00000002
"DriverPath"="Drivers\BuiltIn\TrueFFS1"

Make a softreset and after that you should see a folder named "Extended_ROM2" in the root.

I have attached my ExtRom for you developer guys.

I tried to expose the "Extended_Rom"-Folder on my P4350 (de, eplus,WM5) the way you discribed but no luck. The values I modified with regedit are gone right after soft-reset.

Any hints on that?

[xsign]

Please pay attention:

This is for Windows Mobile 6!

But i remember having the problem with the registry switching back on softreset (MDA Compact 2), but i can't remember how i solved it :( Sry mate...
Probably somebody else has a hint on that...

[papamopps]

Sorry to mention: But with awizard you can dump the extended_rom also. And with total commander you can see the extended_rom without any reghack - and then you just have to copy the files to sd card.


Becuse you might get problems with camera application. Perhaps you can only choose "main" or "extrom" tehre might be no sd card - that was the problem for wizard when unlocking extended_rom

I would use totalcommander

And btw - the extended_rom is posted in Terra-dump thread.

lol

[xsign]

Well sry, but i'm using total commander, and there was no ExtROM already mounted. So i had to regedit. And can you gimme the link to the terra dump thread?

Sorry - i only had to use totalcommander and it worked.

I did it once with awizard = it is 57MB

and with pdocread = it is 62MB

because the end adress is another on awizard than with pdocread.

lol
BUT be careful!!!

Hehe.
You can dump this rom perfect in anichillus Corekitchen. I modified it - BUT i forgot to reconvert the rgu to hv - that bricked my device.

But it works.

[xsign]

just to clear this a bit more into details... what do you mean by bricked ? completely burned, or just the rom got messed up? another question: is the bootloader part of the ROM or stored in another part of the device?

Today i tried to mount the IMGFS and it worked as i removed the whole htc anti spy dll, but it was only accessible over the usb/active sync connection and as of windows locks, some files couldn't be copied :/ pretty sad, seemed to be a easy way to get stuff out of the rom... 90% were copyable... the rest not :/

Bricked = only OS was messed up.

awizard = can only dump OS and Extended_rom --> IPL/SPL and all other is stored somewhere else.

pdocread = the same --> only OS.

We cannot flash IPL/SPL, Splash, Radio = becuase we don´t have an modified RUU or Bootloader like on hermes.
Please try to find a way.

Ok so.....what the hell does this do? :confused:

[xsign]

It reveals all the files your provider (O², T-Mobile, ePlus, ...) has added to the HTC Devices.
Mostly it's smoe dialers, bootscreens, themes etc.

For this ExtROM they even added bugfixes as well :)

BUT they are learning.
The MMS ans Internetsettings are included in ROM. SO if you disable the customizing after hardreset and the Extended_rom isn´t installed --> you have to delete the internetsettings manually.

They are getting better ;)

lol

[xsign]

Well at least the O² ExtROM is a lot better than the t-mobile ones (or even the vodafone...).

Vodafone always tries to push his f*ckn "Vodafone Live" crapstuff and T-Mobile is always messing up screens and buttons -.-

[eujene]

not working... on WM6

[xsign]

Which device?

[satishyard]

Which device?

Stop the custumizing after hardreset by softreset before 3sek....

Then you can accsess by totalcommander: just enter "extended_rom" in adressbar.

lol

[rr69]

I have a Original Dutch HTC 4350 WM5 device. The suggested registry changes worked for me!

I have included the extracted extrom files.

*Just enter "\\Extended_Rom" in the address bar . . . .

[papamopps]

for it works without "\\"

jep.

I am able to unlock the ext_rom with these two registry edits, but does this enable you to place files in the ext rom to be run after a hard reset? I placed a few files in the extended rom (which shows up as extendedrom2) and also added them to the config.txt file but after a hard reset these files were not in the extended rom anymore. I tried another method by extracting the extrom.nb after placing the cabs into it but still no luck. I tried another method using the HTC Extended Rom Editor meant for the hermes and trinity but the extrom.nb created is the wrong size.

Has anyone been able to add a file to extrom and have it run after a hardreset? If so care to elaborate on the process.........

[GentMAB]

I have a T-Mobile Wing w/ 4MB Pagepool and the registry entry didn't work but the direct edits worked fine, get to see my ExtROM fine, now could someone help me on explaining what that is exactly? I tried searching and didn't find much....if anyone wants the files and there are not already on here, I'll post those too..

[kdskamal]

With the registry enteries given in the first post, it only unhides it and does not unlocks it :(
how do i unlock it?

[ivanmmj]

Bricked = only OS was messed up.

awizard = can only dump OS and Extended_rom --> IPL/SPL and all other is stored somewhere else.

pdocread = the same --> only OS.

We cannot flash IPL/SPL, Splash, Radio = becuase we don´t have an modified RUU or Bootloader like on hermes.

Is this correct? I know that they're stored on different partitions, but I thought they were all stored within the same ROM chip. (Which is why I'm so hesitant to even start thinking about messing around with those partitions to make a bigstorage setup.

I don´t know. I jsut wrote that the adresses are different.

Like you say - the partitions......

I guess it is one chip....

he just has to install the HARD-SPL and flash the included ROM!

nothing more

Which included ROM? Well, he can extract the extROM and os.nb from the official RUU and just use USPL (it's safer) but I didn't see a German ROM here, so that's why I said it was unrelated. Besides, he posted this same question in two random threads.

Of course there is no german rom.

but when flashing the hard-spl modified by canonyang there was a complete rom included. crap - but included. i chaged it to itjes touchit 3.0

waiting for a clean herald rom??!!!

Quick question:

What does this do?

Has anyone been able to add a file to extrom and have it run after a hardreset? If so care to elaborate on the process.........

Wondering the same myself on this one? Has anything been found yet or are we limited with putting apps directly in the ROM still?

[pauldeleeuw]

Maybe I missed something. I can delete everything from my Wing's Extended ROM, and load lots of great new stuff. But one soft reset (not hard) and everything is back as it was. Do I have to use a homemade ROM to solve this? Hate to do that because I'd lose all my hard work.
