Hi, did anybody already use Tadzio's bigstorage toolchain (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298327&page=29).

This can dump a nbh/nb file and rebuild to nb/nbh (and in theory save storage on athena memory).
I tried to dump the Black Dual by PK 3.0 ROM with this tool, but if i rebuid then i get a smaller file, OSchecker.exe says that this will lead to bad blocks.

Message in toolchain:
ImgFs Flash Region log blocks was 0x478, now is 0x3e8
No Storage Flash Region found!

If i run the toolchain in -conservative mode i get same log blocks size, but still message "No Storage Flash Region found!"
OSChecker still says will lead to bad blocks.

Is it possible with Athena to remove bad blocks with mtty, like with hermes?
Did somebody use this tazio tool, and got any success with athena?
Is it correct to run in -conservative mode and then flash, or am i doing anything wrong?
I decompiled and recompiled the nb/nbh with duttys good nbhtool, is this okay for athena?
All i want is to dump the ROM make some modifications, and rebuild and flash save.

it was designed for devices with NAND flash rather than a DoC like the athena.

Use mamaich's origional tools and dutty's NBH tool/nbhgen.

like said thousands of time before. the athena is like midget said a DoC device. This means the disk is setup in partitions. U can create a smaller os.nb but it will not mean more storage bc of the set partition for the os.nb

Edit: Also my rom has no rgus meaning even if u dump and package. u will not be able to rebuild bc of the missing rgus. this is ment to be like that so no one will just dump my rom, change some things, and upload saying it is their own. Use midget's kitchen as it is same build and just add your own packages. Remember to donate to him if u use his kitchen.
