How to replace my Ext_Rom with another one!!!

[amiromario]

Hi Guys:)

Is there anybody who can guide me if it is possible to replace the Ext_Rom of a WM6 with WM5 or not?!!!:confused:
Actually I had a problem with my Ext_Rom...(There's a CLEARVUE...a default program for Reading PDF files which I hate it,but I can't prevent it of being installed while costumization of WM5:mad: ) So I wondered If I can change My Ext_Rom with the one whcih has not Clearvue inside?
If yes,then how???:rolleyes:
Thanks

Easy.
Go to the WiKi and search for "unlocking extended ROM of Prophet".

The extended ROM is just a collection of cabs. On the Prophet (at least in WM 5 not sure if they changed it in WM 6) you can open it with a simple registry change and then manually delete or add cabs. (note that cabs must be signed to automatically install after hard reset)

I looked over the backup of my Ext_ROM (from official i-mate ROM) but could not determine which cab installs ClearView just by their names.
You could always try them manually one by one or use CECabManager (google) to see whats inside.

Hi Levenum

It's really great to have someone to help you,finally.Thanks a lot,man:) .Actually I know how to un-hide the Ext_Rom,but the problem is that I can't find the cab that is installing this damn Clearvue program:(
I'm looking for someone who guide me which Cab is responsible for that(Gives me the name of the cab.file)...or....Any hero who guide me is it possible for me to change my current Ext_Rom with the another one that is not included that damn CLEARVUE???!!!:confused:
Thank you again for helping:p

[amiromario]

Heloooooooooooooo

Isn't there anybody who direct me (and many others who have got the similar problem) by just saying how we can get rid of CLEARVUE in the Ext_Rom or at least replacing it with ACROBAR READER?:confused:
I already know how to un-hide AND Unlock the extended rom...:o
I need only the name of the cab file (which installs CLEARVUE),...nothing more...:p

[Black-Rose]

It's NOT installed in the ExtROM, it's installed in the "base"ROM. :mad:

Hi Black Rose

I don't care where this damn software is,and I'm not gonna debate you over it...You just tell me what s the name of the cab.file...And if you are so sure about the location,so tell me also the place of it(Base or Ext-Rom??:confused: )
Thanks anyway:)

I think clearvue is pre-installed in the base ROM, so there is no cab file to delete.

For me, I just ignore that clearvue or adobe LE is there. I just went ahead and installed Adobe 2.0 and everytime I tap a pdf file, adobe 2.0 opens.

If that doesn't work for you, you can use resco explorer to assign which default prog to open any file... similar to "open with" in XP or Vista.

Hi Putra:)

Are you sure it's not in the Ext_Rom?Because after a hard reset,whenever I prevent the Ext_Rom of customizing my device (Stop customization),I don't have the CLEARVUE installed on my mobile.:confused:
This is why I think it must be somewhere in Ext_Rom.Even some excerpts told me that I have to replace my Ext-Rom with the one which doesn't have CLEARVUE...But he didn't tell me exactly how I can find such a extended Rom and how I can do the replacement...I also needed to know if the replacement may damage the Original Rom of my device or not?:confused:
Thanks for helping me, anyway and I would be more appreciated if you help me a little more in that.:o

[Putra]

Ok, in that case, then it should be in your extrom. However, I also do not know which is the cab file. One way is to prevent the extrom customization, and then manually install each cab from the extrom....

Why don't you just leave clearvue in your device, and simply install adobe 2.0? I don't think clearvue takes that much space...

[paradis_pal]

you can edit the ext_ rom by editing the folder content in WM6

I recomend to use winimage to edit extrom, it will lock the ext rom

HI Chopin

Thanks a lot for helping me to solve this problem,but wou,d you pease elaborate a little bit more...After all,I'm a newbie!!!!!:D
Just tell me what's this WINIMAGE and also tell me if I would be able to find the cab file of CLEARVUE within my Ext_Rom to erase it or not?!?!:confused:
Thanks again:)

[paradis_pal]

winimage to use with extension.nb, as anewbie let forget how to use this one. if you need to kow, use search you;ll find a lot about how to use this one.

just look in the folder and remove it, or just edit the file Config.txt and remove the cab you don;t wanna install, it is so easy and don't need any clarification.

tell me what ROM do you use

[Putra]

OFF TOPIC: Hi Chopin, can you explain how I can edit the contents of the extrom on WM6?

[paradis_pal]

edit the files. delete any cab you want and instert anycab you want in the folder, but if you add a cab file then edit the file config.txt and and enter the cab file in it

[Putra]

Oops, I meant how do I unlock and unhide the extrom in WM6. What prog do I use?

The last time I tried using WM5 tools on PdaViet 01, it didn't work. I have not tried again. I'm on Gullum v6, btw.

[paradis_pal]

if this is what you want here is the files for unlock, and please ask me more if this was not what u needed

[Putra]

Ok, thanx. I'll try them...

Hi dear friends

I noticed that we have been a little been off-topic,so I wanted to recall that we are here to help each other to find a way for "HOW WE CAN DELETE ANY CAB(In my case...CLEARVUE's cab file)INSIDE THE EXT_ROM OR CHANGE IT WITH ANOTHER CAB(Again in my case changing default CLEARVUE with ADOBE ACROBAT)?????:mad: :confused:
My friends

I even checked the Config.text file within my Ext_Rom,but unfortunately even there was no name and trace of CLEARVUE?!?!!??But I' sure it must be there...since when I stop my device of being costumized after a hard reset,I never see this CLEARVUE in my programs...So that means it must be somewhere in Ext-Rom..Somebody...Some hero....some know-all tell me where?????And under what name?!?!??!??!??!?!?:mad: :(

[paradis_pal]

please, we already answer this question, to help you more, what ROM do you use?

Dear Chopin

My Rom's version is 2.14.13.27 and my device is dopod 818.The last thing I found out is that CLEARVUE is not located as a single cab file inside EXT-Rom.But it comes with an App which installs many apps all at the same time.The things I need to know, now, are that;
1-What the name of that cab file(which installs many apps all at the same time)can be?
2-After finding it,how can I modify a complex cab file???
To delete CLEARVUE, or not to delete CLEARVUE...That's the question!!!:o

Thank you very much for all of your kindly helps:) ;)

[paradis_pal]

ur program is inside the ROM, please try the ROM nvid 2.20 aku 2.2 from qtek

[amiromario]

ur program is inside the ROM, please try the ROM nvid 2.20 aku 2.2 from qtek

Hi dear Chopin

1-Do U mean I have to forget about my original Rom and shift into another Rom(nvid 2.20 aku 2.2 from qtek)?:confused:
2-Will it be applicable to my Dopod818?:cool:
3-Is there any other way that I can only change my Ext_Rom,and not the whole Rom?(Because I'm absolutely satisfied with my Rom and it has even no bug!!!,so I really do not miss it:o )

Thanks for your patience:D
