Zune HD ROM Dump

---

Here we go!

3 Relevant partitions on the Zune HD:

ZBoot
NK
EXT

(there's actually a 4th partition, but it's a recovery partition for NK to facilitate fail-safe updating)

Enjoy

(a note: some files appear to be damaged, its my first time dumping a CE 7/Zune HD ROM :P)
(another note: thanks to nd4spd for getting the rom update to me, i don't have a zune hd )

wow I'll take a look.

Anything usable?

These executables are designed for CE 7 and more than likely will not work at all on CE 5 (although things coded for .NET might)

Really, you tell me, though, I haven't actually tried

Awesome! Subscribed...

Wait...so you're telling me it might be possible to create custom roms on the zune hd?!?! i need them to come out with a 128 gb model asap then...

WOW....they were trying to dump a zune rom for years.... so this means the protection on the zune HD is not nearly as strong as the regular zune...this is good news indeed...Mine is on backorder still =x

Another quick Q, did you dump that yourself or find it somewhere?

been trying to find this for a few weeks
looking forward to see what can be done!

are the keyboard files in a format that we can use on windows mobile phones?

Actually, all I did was reset my Zune HD in recovery mode and plugged it in. When the Zune Software detected it, it downloaded the ROM from MS. When I was defragging my computer a few days earlier, I happened to find the folder where it saved all of the Firmware Updates. So I just looked in that folder and found the FirmwareUpdate.cab that had the .bin files in it.

after messing around with it, looks like nothing can really be recmoded to make dll files. it may need another way to rec mod than in the vk.
