How to dump HTC Kaiser ROM

To dump Kaiser's ROM use itsutils pdocread.exe (http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html) from itsme:

Hi, what's the best method (Vista) to upload the orginal HTC rom to a phone? What tool do i search for?

[jcespi2005]

To dump Kaiser's ROM use itsutils pdocread.exe (http://www.xs4all.nl/%7Eitsme/projects/xda/tools.html) from itsme:




Thanks for the guide to dump... manage to dump the spanish HTC WM6 ROM, and now i have two questions...

First is easy (i think), what is every partition of the dump? i suppose part03 is the imgfs, but can you give us more information about this?

Second one is do you think can be interesting uploading the dumped ROMs to the wiki (like in the hermes wiki)? If "yes" i can upload the spanish one.

Thanks again for your efforts.

Thanks a lot!!!


But when i run pdocread.exe an error mag:

"Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it is inuse?
try restarting your device, or restart activesync
or maybe your device is application-locked."

I restarted my Kaiser, still the same error...

Anyone could help?

For now there is no way to repack the dumpeds ROM, we need to wait and make more research, seems we are near to get the way to do.

You need NBH file and HardSPL (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679)/KaiserCustomRUU (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334890) (thanks to Pof) to flash a Kaiser.

First is easy (i think), what is every partition of the dump? i suppose part03 is the imgfs, but can you give us more information about this?

I'd quite like to know this as well - I'm assuming one of the sections is the SPL. It'd be nice to know which, so I can revert back to the factory SPL if needs be.

I know Part02 is imgfs (where you can extract the files from the ROM and make packages. But don't know what are the others. Perhaps Part00 and/or Part01 are XIP, but i'm not sure.

Anyone know what are the Part00, Part01 and Part03?

I'm a previous Heremes Black Rom user and could not wait to get this At&T crap off my newly puchased Tilt. I've spent a number of hours reading this and most post but can't get a feel if this is the best backout solution to flahsing back to your original carrier ROM? Can the newly created raw files be used to create a nbh file and flash back? Also, is the block size of 0x800 specific to the kaiser,"Tilt" or a value found to be most effective when reading data from the disk-on-chip? Does one of the images represent the extended ROM.? I can see that DSK1 is my SD card so hoping that one of the other images is the extd-ROM. Thanks in advanced for the information.

I just successful dumped my ROM. But, the next question is how can I "restore" the dumped ROM to the Phone. Any one knows?

[scorpio16v]

Just some suggestions from a "Non-Kaiser"-user :D
There is a logfile from itsutils in the root-directory of your device called "itsutils.log".
Open it with a texteditor and you get further informations about the different parts.
Some hints for the ROM-reconstruction you can find here (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoReconstruct).
Maybe the way to reconstruct a Kaiser ROM is similar.

[tadzio]

Maybe the way to reconstruct a Kaiser ROM is similar.

Yes. That shouldn't be a problem really. I will release a new version of the ImgfsTools later today (check the "Want more storage" sticky in the Hermes forum) which can work with Kaiser ROMs.

Then all you have to do is rename part02.raw (which is the imgfs partition; part03 seems to be Storage) to imgfs.bin.

Run NBSplit, ImgfsFromNb on a Kaiser ROM as described in the ReadMe that comes with the ImgfsTools (or have a look at the included NBDumpKaiser.bat file).

Now, simply replace the imgfs.bin that came from the Kaiser ROM with the one you got as Part02.raw.

You now should be able to run ImgfsToDump and proceed normally with building a ROM.

This procedure will replace only the imgfs partition. However, the XIP part is language independent, so this should be sufficient to change the language of your Kaiser.

As I heard, the Kaiser does not have an Extended ROM, so that should be all you need to do.

Disclaimer: I don't own a Kaiser, so I have not tested this myself.

Hope that helps!

[RacerII]

Hang on , so if i get this right i can use my t-mobile dutch raw dump to reconstruct so it can be flashed right?

If so could you or anyone please explain what steps i exactly should take just to be sure.
I allready dumped the rom on my device.

I only want to do this so i can create a backup rom for me and other t-mobile nl users so if they need to send their phone back for warranty reasons they can flash the original rom back.

It will not be exactly the same ROM. You will have the XIP part of the "donor" ROM (language independent), plus the dutch Imgfs partition (basically, the Windows folder).

The procedure has not yet been tried in reality. But the steps are described in the ImgfsTools documentation (also look at the NBDumpKaiser and NBBuildKaiser batch files) and in my post above.

Sorry to ask this question , what exactly is the XIP?

If i get this right , if i use this method i will have an english rom (kaiser xip) and a dutch imgfs?

So it wont really be of any use then?

XIP refers (technically not 100% correctly) to the core part of Windows Mobile.

It is not english. It is language independent, i.e. it does not contain any text or other language- or country-specific parts.

If you put in your dutch imgfs.bin, you will have a completely dutch Windows.

Make sure you have HardSPL installed before you flash anything.

Thanks for your explanation , so in my case this still cant be used as backup.
Because the t-mobile rom uses an older ce build right?

Thanks for answering my quiestions btw , im new to using these tools and trying to understand what it exactly does.

Edit: thanks about the hard-spl warning , i wont even dare to try it without it.
Rom flashing is no problem , i think i tried all the wm6 roms there where released for the trinity.

can i add to dump folder cab file + to the config_PT.txt
will that work (the new cab) on HR after redump?

Thanks to tadzio and his great tools, i manage to make BigStorage unmodiffied ROM from dumped spanish 1.56 ROM, taking dumped folder from Part02.raw of my spanish Kaiser (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1579890&postcount=23) as the source for making the ROM.

I can't test it for now, so i need someone that can flash this ROM and advice if works. Of course you need HardSPL (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679) before doing this.

If this ROM works after flash, then the reconstruct process from dumped ROM is an easy way, an i make a little guide on how to do it.

Someone?

An advice: if you'r going to try this (what i thank you), make sure you have one valid ROM to flash and HardSPL in case that don't boot.

Here is the link DELETED

EDIT: The ROM don't boot. I'll try to repack without BS to see if works.

Well, the nonBigStorage one works fine (thanks to christonge (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=381531) to test it for me), so thanks to see the issue. I follow the recomendations about .extra and let the tool to create instead of use the one for the original windows.nb (can be this the origin of the issue?).

I'll try to do the process again, but starting with the part02.raw renamed to imgfs.bin without dumping the content, to see if the dump process are related.

I'll post the spanish reconstructed rom in new thread later with a little guide on how to reconstruct a dumped ROM.

Okay, I think I know now what went wrong. I will release a corrected version of the ImgfsTools shortly.

As a quick work-around, make sure you do the following:

- if you allow NBMerge to find the .nb.extra file, you must use -conservative or -bigstorage

- if you allow NBMerge to internally generate the extra data, you must use -move or -bigstoragemove (yes, these were undocumented, but they do exist :-))

There were two other minor problems, so this might still not work - although I think it will.

To dump Kaiser's ROM use itsutils pdocread.exe (http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html) from itsme:

Was hoping to get a bit of help on dumping my HTC Kaiser ROM. I've followed thes instructions to a T. Part 00 & 01 work perfectly & produce the .raw files. The problem occurs when I try to dump the remainder of the files [part02 & part03]. In the Dos command line I get the following error message:

ERROR: ITReadDisk : read 00000000 bytes - The storage control block address is invalid

Despite the error message, a .raw file is generated for both the part02 & part03. Windows Explorer shows the 2 files as being 70,144kb & 47,872kb respectively.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

I do not have a Kaiser, so I can't say anything definite. Just a few ideas:

- did pdocread -l give you the same numbers as in pof's post? If not, which numbers did you use to dump, pof's or the ones from your call to pdocread -l?

- did you actually have a look into part02 and part03 - maybe they are usable and contain the data you expected? If ImgfsToDump works on part02.raw, then obviously it was a valid imgfs file.

Cheers

You did it right :)

Now onto reconstructing the rom so its fashable!

[CyberSpeedy]

As Pdocread READS the Memory-on-chip, isn't it possible to Write the raw-files just by using pdocwrite?
Or doens't this work,because if this works, I know for sure there is a way to return to my dutch Tytn2 OEM rom if something fails will flashing an wwe cooked version

[buaty]

Thanx For All.

I Will Test It Tomorrow Morning When The Phone Full Charged.

Sorry, am a newby at this... Will thisROM dump only contain the original base ROM, or also the appz and settings I made since a first started to use the device?

Download the last version here http://nah6.com/~itsme/itsutilsbin-20070705.zip and try again (don't forget to update the DLL into \windows PDA folder).

Anyway, if you have the last version, the address you post are the same, so you can use to extract the ROM.

[thickycat]

Anyway, if you have the last version, the address you post are the same, so you can use to extract the ROM.

It's probably the case but isn't the granularity of the '69.38M' too great to be sure that the numbers actually mean the same? I don't know the block size but 0x4560000 gives 69.38M but so would anything up to 45628F7.

You're probably right, but I hate assuming...!

You're probably right, but I hate assuming...!

No problem, the correct size is given by a size 0x4560000 and the block size (800 for Kaiser). So in a Kaiser every time you see 69,38M, this is caused by the 0x4560000. My Kaiser is

[bokingwen]

nevermind i was stupid.....

[sonny-67]

Stuck at the first hurdle, I'm afraid :confused:

From where do I run the commands - the Kaiser or PC?

e.g $ ./pdocread.exe -l

Thanks

[sonny-67]

Ok - I guessed that it's run from a command prompt on the PC.

However I also get the message:-

"Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it's inuse? try restarting your device, or restart activesync or maybe your device is application-locked".

I've seen the registry edit fix for this, but is there anyway around it without having to edit the registry. Does everyone have to edit the registry before running pdocread? If so, then shouldn't this sticky mention that upfront?

Cheers.

[louiscar]

I'm not having any joy with this at all for some reason.

When I run pdocreate.exe -l it copied itsutils.dll to the wce \windows folder.

That's it. When I try to run it again it just says:

"Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it's in use? Try restarting your device, or restart activesync or maybe your device is spplication - locked"

If I delete the file it gives me the same message but the file does re-appear ok, but I'm not getting the list as I should.

Obviously the message I'm getting is eronious as the file does get copied.

Can anyone enlighten me as to what might be the problem here?

I am using ROM 1.81.707.0 WWE

How to I actually dump the rom.

When I use the dump command provided:
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part00 0 0x31f000 Part00.raw
I got this reply:
HexdumpTFFSToStdout(0x31f000, 0x0)

Anything I have did wrongly? Appreciated if you can guide me. Thanks.

I'm also having some problems dumping part3. Part2 took a couple of tries but finally got it. Part3 dips out or hangs up. At first try it just hung till I aborted to see what bytes were saved (seems to randomly stop).

After a failure then subsequent tries will kill activesync at some point fairly early in the process. A reboot will start the process off again, first try usually being a hang or halt (not message, just inactivity till I abort) saving anything between 700k to 2M.

According to the list:

210.50M (0xd280000) FLASHDR
| 3.12M (0x31f000) Part00
| 3.50M (0x380000) Part01
| 68.00M (0x4400000) Part02
| 135.88M (0x87e0000) Part03

I should run:

pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part00 0 0x31f000 Part00.raw
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part01 0 0x380000 Part01.raw
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part02 0 0x4400000 Part02.raw
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part03 0 0x87e0000 Part03.raw

As part 3 is the area where each version seems to differ I'm wondering if I've got something wrong. Any ideas?

Don't worry about part03.raw. This is the storage area, so you don't need it. Part01 is the XIP and part02 is the IMGFS. This are the most important.

Cheers.

Seems all goes ok. Every ROM can have different sizes and different values for dumping, so don't care about this.

Take a look and see if part00.raw is on the folder where you try the command.

Cheers.

Ok that's good to know jcespi. Is there a way to know that (once re-constructed) the file is valid or is the only way to find out is flash it?

I only worry about Part2 as it took a couple of tries to dump but I did get the correct size and activesync dropped the connection only after part3 started. It's exactly 68M so I should think it's good.

when i dump the rom off of my kaiser do i need to hard reset the device before i dump it to get a clean image file?

[jcespi2005]

The ROM you dump is ReadOnly on the device, so every time you dump, is the same content ;) You don't need to HardReset before to do the dump.

Cheers.

Where do the dump files end up on your computer? This is the first time I have dumped a rom. Everything went through right but I cannot find the dumped files. Where are they saved? Thanks

Nevermind I figured it out.

I thought that the BTD referred to the Bluetooth "storage" option, but it was still there even when I disabled Bluetooth.

I noticed there were even more storage options listed until I removed my SD card. I don't think you need to worry about them.

Hi @ll..

i think, i need your help :o

I have bought a new HTC TyTN II German Version last Friday.

Now, before i will try things like upgrading cooked roms and install many programs to try, i wanted to dump the "first" rom..

But when i use the itutils i get these message:

Copying C:\itsutilsbin-20070705\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll
Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it is inuse?
try restarting your device, or restart activesync
or maybe your device is application-locked.

Have i to HardSPL first?

need Help please

thanxx


[EDIT]

:confused: There are a few things going on about working with the ROM that I got confused.

1. Dump ROM, then reconstruct ROM and flash back to the machine. I think this is a different way of doing a backup.:confused:

Question: Are all the user data included in the dump during the dump? Would the data be reflashed back to the machine in proper location? (I don't think so). I think just keep the RUU.. ROM file and SpriteBackup would be a perfect backup solution, why need to dump ROM in this case?

2. Now, after going this dump procedure, I got all these folders and files in the dump directory (hundreds of them). What do I do with them? In other words, how do I edit them? Can add couple .exe files into directory that is about it. How do you, for example, change the display from English to Chinese, or added an IME program or add the .cab file equivalent to it?

3. In using ROM kitchen to cook, is there any tool which can convert a .cab to an OEM package folder? I saw a thread how to make an OEM package, is there other simplier way?

My confusion is between 2 & 3. If functions or programs can be added with 2 (dump & re-construct ROM), why we need the kitchen. On the other hand, if the kitchen is use to add or subtract functions or programs, why we need to go through all the trouble of dumping and reconstructing ROM?

It seems to me that a good cook does not need to be also a farmer and a ranger to get all his ingredients.

Many thanks!

Hi,

I have the following problem, when dumping part 3:

ERROR: ITReadDisk: Outbuf==NULL

'Host Device disconnected'

What can cause this?

Thanks,

Leo ;)

[Laurentius26]

Nobody can help me?

When I try to dump part 03.raw the device disconnects all the time :(
It's saying the software on my device has disconnected !!!
Sometimes at 17mb other times at 110mb but never dumps the complete partition!!!

Adresses and size are different too as first post in this thread!
I'm trying to dump a Dutch Orange ROM and will upload if I manage!

Am I the only one in this?

[jacky312]

hi, i posted a thread asking on how to make a backup of the current rom i have which is the arabic version, and i was linked to this forum.

unfortunately, it is to complecated for me (Newbie), and i guess for several other newbies. is there a much more simpler way? or in other words, a more simpler way that takes every issue, step by step to backup everything, so that when i take it to the dealer, they would not know that i reflashed the device. thnx for the cooperation.

I would also like to share this rom for all of those people who would need it to use it for the warrenty.

Again, Thnx

Hello,

my dumped ROM

Orange Slovakia WWE 1.81.68.3

http://rapidshare.com/files/83339104/Tytn_II_ORANGE_SK_WWE_reconstructed.rar


Nice :)

If you doesn't matter, i'll add a link in my thread about reconstructed ROMs for this one you make.

Cheers

Hi,

I have the following problem, when dumping part 3:

ERROR: ITReadDisk: Outbuf==NULL

'Host Device disconnected'

What can cause this?

Thanks,

Leo ;)

Hi Guys,

i have the same problem when trying to dump my German Vodafone VPAcompact V. Is there any solution available?

Thanks and best regards!!

[stainlesspc]

Ok long time flasher first time dumper.
I read the whole thread, and must be missing something
First I do not speak programeze, so if I read the instructions I did not realize it.
1. Can I do this as my tilt is now, or does it have to be a fresh hard reset ?
2. do I just connect my phone and run pdocread.exe (finally found it :) )
3. or do I need to enter some special commands.

A nice step by step and requirments ie. fresh hard reset, hard-spl, ect.

Thanks :)

Don't worry about part03.raw part, there is no needed to reconstruc the ROM.

If you have Part01 and PArt02, is enoght.

Cheers.

[stmasi]

At the end of the part02.raw dump, I get the following error message:

ERROR: ITReadDisk : read 00000000 bytes - The storage control block address is invalid.

However, I have ended with the following:

01/26/2008 10:23 3,272,704 Part00.raw
01/26/2008 10:26 3,670,016 Part01.raw

01/26/2008 10:49 140,902,400 Part03.raw
4 File(s) 220,196,864 bytes

Do these sizes seem correct?

Please advise.

EDIT...

Nevermind...got it working now just fine and dandy. Now all I have to do is figure out how to compile these files, make the changes I want, and flash it back to my phone.

Thanx.

I'm trying to dump a wm6.1 rom which i have cooked myself and added apps to to see if once reconstructed it is as was when dumped.

I'm having this problem:-


http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s221/Johnston411/Itsutils1.jpg


I'm sure it's something simple but i'm a bit of a novice.

I'm using vista home premium.

[eroG]

Nobody can help me?

When I try to dump part 03.raw the device disconnects all the time :(
It's saying the software on my device has disconnected !!!
Sometimes at 17mb other times at 110mb but never dumps the complete partition!!!


| 134.25M (0x8640000) Part03 (this one I can't dump)


Am I the only one in this?



same issue here.

hope someone finds out why it stops everytime I try to dump it.


edit: after trying to dump Part3 several times in the end it has completed the procedure and now I have all the 4 files. my advice to anyone else who is encountering this problem is to keep trying until it works..

[ahmadashar]

I know this might be a stupid question, but do i need to HardSPL my phone b4 i dump the rom, i actually want to dump the original UK rom for Kaiser and just wana be safe then sorry.

This is the first time I'm gonna do this, so need some novice help here:
- Do I need to flash the original RUU ROM on my phone in order to extract the RAW dump?
- Once I flash the original ROM, I need to connect the phone and then run the command so that the RAW files can be extracted?

Thanks in advance

is there some way how to test if dump is OK, eg in warranty problem i can restore in easy way oreginal ROM ?

and is possible to lock CID again (to get completly initial state before flashing and unlocking) ?

thank you

[TheDovelKing]

OK, different issue.

I know Part03 isn't of great importance when reconstructing ... but.

When I dump Part03 twice and check it with WinDiff it is always different in many places. Are we sure that Part03 is actually pointing to a static ROM partition?

The other parts always verify correctly after multiple reads.
Could this explain why so many others are having such trouble getting part03? Since it changes all the time pdocread is detecting this and aborting?

Cheers,
Anthony

[stainlesspc]

Made it :)
Well I got it dumped last night
Dr.Jays video was great and filled in the small blanks I had as to how to proceed.
Now to figure our what is next :)

You should NOT be using the values in the first post as static values. Always execute the "pdocread -l" command as these locations can vary depending on what ROM is on your device.

For example. For Dutty's Hybrid WM6.1, the partitions ar:
0x31f000 Part00
0x380000 Part01
0x3fe0000 Part02
0x8be0000 Part03

And for Sleuth v3.0, the location is here:
0x31f000 Part00
0x3a0000 Part01
0x4380000 Part02
0x8840000 Part03

Always "pdocread -l" for location.

Hey i need a bit of help. Just started learning to cook my own rom and i cooked it successfully. Now i want to dump the ROM on my device however when i run pdocread i get this error

I have windows vista home premium. I searched already and found issues like thisn when people tried to install without hardspl. I have hardspl on my kaiser and have flashed it several times before. Whats wiered is i get the same error even when i run the program without the Kaiser attached.

I have also tried turning off wireless and restarting device but still no joy. Thanks. Oh yeah i check the regs for my device and i already have the dword value set to 1. Thanks in advance.

Hello there!

Can someone tell for sure if the procedures described in this thread work on smartphones (specially the HTC Excalibur/S621, aka T-Mo Dash) and/or in other PPCs (non-HTC also, i've got a Cyberbank POZ EVDO...)?

Guys, need your help.

I'm trying do dump an original rom from my orange tytn, but receiving the known message in cmd

[I]"Copying C:\itsutils\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll
Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it is inuse? try restarting your device, or restart ActiveSync"

i found some very good tips on wiki- "Hermes_HowtoDumpRom", but i'm stucked on changing the HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies
valuename '00001001' was set to dword:2, change it to dword:1.

I cannot change this dword to 1, by default it 0. I was using regeditSTG.exe and MobileRegistryEditor and none of them cannot change the value. I have no idea how to use this prapi.exe tool. Please advice...

[Vivendi]

disregard my previous comment. I've resolved that problem.

Now i have another issue. After running pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b0x800 -p Part00 0 0x31f000 Part00.raw i got the following message:

CopyTFFSToFile(0x0, 0x31f000, Part00.raw)
ERROR: ITReadDisk : Read 00000000 bytes - The Parameter is incorrect.

The same story with other parts.

Any idea what is wrong???


Right before the described issue i had another issue. I didnt receive such error message, but after CopyTFFSToFile(0x0, 0x31f000, Part00.raw) i wasnt able to find any file in the defined directory on PC. It looks like files were not copied to my machine. Any thoughts?

[swatguard]

I just dumped my vodafone RO ROM from my Htc Touch Cruise, i got that nasty error on Part03.raw

(ERROR: ITReadDisk: outbuf==NULL
- An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.)

I understand from previous posts that it is not important for reconstructing the ROM.
Could anyone please, post a "step by step" tutorial for reconstructing the original ROM in case of "warranty needs" , for us...n00bs...

Thanks in advance

[mrpeartree]

does anyone try this PTG rom? is this the official HTC rom ou the TMN rom? thanks

Copying C:\itsutilsbin\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll

try restarting your device, or restart activesync
or maybe your device is application-locked.

i keep getting this message. how can i unlock my kaiser? i've tried restarts of the device and active-sync, but i've no idea how this applicatino locking works.

[Praetorian1]

Hello all...

I've done my best to trawl through the rest of this thread and the forum/wiki in general, but no one else seems to have had this problem...

I'm expecting to see my "Part*.raw" files in the working directory of pdocread.exe, but they are no-where to be seen... I've searched the host PC and my Kaiser, but to no avail!...

Everything seems to be working fine, as per the tutorial, but I just can't find the dump files!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.

Opened the registry, both on XP and Vista and as a matter of fact, I couldn't find this key that you are stating.

Can you give an EXACT PATH to this key in the registry? Is there another way to do a dump of the ROM?

Hi everyone!

I´d like to know what exact command to run pdocread.exe file on cmd?

There are many commands that i really don´t know if is necessary or not.:confused:

[gregslater84]

well I get an error saying:

"C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe - pdocread -l
The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction.
CS:0fc3 IP:02e7 OP:63 61 6e 20 62 Choose 'Close' to terminate the application."

[gregslater84]

Hey i need a bit of help. Just started learning to cook my own rom and i cooked it successfully. Now i want to dump the ROM on my device however when i run pdocread i get this error

C:\Kaiser~1\pdocred.exe
The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction
CS:11b9 IP:02e7blah blah blaah..

You're having the same problem as me, after some fishing around I found that it's a problem with the NTVDM and WOW (Windows On Windows) systems. It looks like it's one of two things:

1. A virus - run a deep virus scan.
2. One of the problems listed in this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q196453/

I started reading that support page and lost interest, so I'm doing a virus scan, I'll let you know of any meaningful results.

[gregslater84]

...sorted it (that was quick!)...

The file "pdocread.exe" I downloaded from the original link was only 14Kb. I've downloaded the zip in post 67 (thanks jcespi2005!), extracted pdocread.exe (now 140kb!) and itsutils.dll into the same folder and it worked boootiful!

Thanks again!

[raiisak]

Since several is looking for ansver on the: ERROR: ITReadDisk I made a semispam tread to lead to the ansver
You should NOT be using the values in the first post as static values. Always execute the "pdocread -l" command as these locations can vary depending on what ROM is on your device.

For example. For Dutty's Hybrid WM6.1, the partitions ar:
0x31f000 Part00
0x380000 Part01
0x3fe0000 Part02
0x8be0000 Part03

And for Sleuth v3.0, the location is here:
0x31f000 Part00
0x3a0000 Part01
0x4380000 Part02
0x8840000 Part03

Always "pdocread -l" for location.

This means you NEED TO USE YOURE OWN VALUES, ie. on my kaiser i had to use 0x43e000 instead of 0x4560000 as shown as an example in the wery first post. Hope this could help.

+ If you cant get contact to the device use PHM Regedit: http://www.phm.lu/Products/Smartphone/RegEdit/
(use the pocketpc 2002,2003 (ARM/PXA) if the active sync file doesnt work for you, this is the cab and defently work on kaiser)

Then goto HKLM (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE) -> Security -> Policies (NOT Policy) -> then edit: 00001001 (should be the secound or something) and change the value data from 2 to 1. Make a soft reset and you are good to goo :cool:

[andyzhp]

Does any body tell me how to use this software?
I just download the software " pdocread.exe ", keep my kaiser connecting to PC, then double click the software, but nothing happened, I didn't see the any file.
So can anybody teach me how to run the software? I need more details about that. I am a fresh.
thanks for all.

[gregslater84]

You need to run the software from the command line with the "-l" switch initially. Click start > run and type "cmd".

[Imperium]

What if someone dumped the original rom WITH HardSPL installed? will you be able to flash the original ROM without HardSPL anyways like a stock ROM? or not?

[tubaking182]

***deleted solved

[gregslater84]

@Imperium: I would have thought the CID would be retained when it's dumped. So as long as it's the same unit that would make sense. I'm no expert though but that's what I reckon! :)

[redbandana]

i cannot get this tool to do anything. When I click on pdocread a black screen appears for 2 seconds and then disappears.

open a command prompt, then run the tool. command line tools are run FROM the command line, they aren't (usually) the command line themselves.

I'm sure it's something simple but i'm a bit of a novice.

I'm using vista home premium.

as you can see from the error message, the problem is writing to the output file. vista doesn't let non-elevated accounts write to the root of the c drive, so you can either change to a different directory and save the dump there, or run the command prompt with administrative privileges and try it again.

Hi everyone

Im a newbie who thought this would be easy but...
Heres my problems and questions.

So when i use the commands exactly as written in the 1st post:

pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part00 0 0x31f000 Part00.raw
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part01 0 0x380000 Part01.raw
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part02 0 0x4560000 Part02.raw
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part03 0 0x8660000 Part03.raw

thats listed in the first post i get this:

Part00.raw 3,1 MB
Part01.raw 3,0 MB
Part02.raw 69,3 MB
Part03.raw 119,7 MB
Total: 195,3 M

If i use my own values i get errors.

The Questions:
Shouldnt i get files that are the same size as pdocread.exe -l shows?
Or is it the sum of all files that matters (im missing about 15 MB i think)?
Shouldnt i use the values that pdocread.exe -l shows and run the command like this: pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part01 0 0x3a0000 Part01.raw



Please help a newbie :D

Having read through this thread, either I have missed something or there is still NO WAY of flashing the read files or compiling a backup file which can be used to flash back to the kaisers.

what do I need to extract the rom I am really confused I dont know what to get please if any1 can help me.

[Simonetti2010]

How do I get the radio ROMs from the dumped files?

[icek]

Follow the instructions at the start of this thread to dump the raw files and then the link below to reconstruct the files
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337066

[jacky_zhuxg]

:confused: There are a few things going on about working with the ROM that I got confused.

2. Now, after going this dump procedure, I got all these folders and files in the dump directory (hundreds of them). What do I do with them? In other words, how do I edit them? Can add couple .exe files into directory that is about it. How do you, for example, change the display from English to Chinese, or added an IME program or add the .cab file equivalent to it?

3. In using ROM kitchen to cook, is there any tool which can convert a .cab to an OEM package folder? I saw a thread how to make an OEM package, is there other simplier way?

My confusion is between 2 & 3. If functions or programs can be added with 2 (dump & re-construct ROM), why we need the kitchen. On the other hand, if the kitchen is use to add or subtract functions or programs, why we need to go through all the trouble of dumping and reconstructing ROM?


That is all the things I'm getting confused too.
anyone can explain? read a lot from this forum and I know I should put part01.raw, part02.raw and ruu_signed.nbh together to reconstruct ROM.
os if the part01.raw and part02.raw has all the ROM needed, what exactly ruu_signed.nhb do? and we can only use ruu_signed.nbh to flash, then what exactly part01/02.raw do?

Well, part01 and part02 are the content of device extracte, but are in RAW format. part01 is the XIP and part02 is the IMGFS (the OS itself). But for creating a NB file from the IMGFS you need an old NB, this is why you need a base NBH file to reconstruct. Tha tadzio tools works in this way... and KaiserKitchen is based on two basic tools, Tadzio and Bepe tools.

To understand how works the reconstruction process, take a deep look at KAISERKITCHEN.CMD and you will understand a lot better how do the works...

the answer to you questions are yes. For reconstruction process, you only need part01 and part02. So what is your exact problem? Did you extract part01 and part02? what error did you get?

We need more info to help you, mate...

[jacky312]

hi, i downloaded
- itsutilsbin-20080602
- itsutl050628

and i can't seem to run pdocread.exe, i get the following error message

"Unable to locate component
This application has failed to start because RAPI.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."


what steps should i do, does this require some type of installation?

i have very little knowledge in programing, and i would like to dump my rom since it is not available here and i would also like to share it.

if you managed to dump your rom successfully can you tell me in simple steps how you have managed to do it?

Thnx for the support.

Thanks a lot. You ARE a really warmhearted　man, professional as well.

so if I didn't misunderstand, that is nothing worry about ruu_signed.nbh I use when I got part01/02.raw file for cooking ,right?

[jacky312]

while i am dumping Part02.raw , at the end i get the following error message


ERROR: ITReadDisk : read 00000000 bytes - The storage control block address is invalid.



what does this mean?
what should i do?

Thnx

[jacky312]

I think this was because the title 0x4560000 Part 02

is different on my phone so all i had to do is type the one i have.

[jeeke]

and then rebuilding? :)

well i'm intrested in rom cooking but i'm new on this matter.
Is it possible you send me your link so that I could look how it works or all the rest.....

[twilli65]

How do I extract just the radio ROMs from dumped files?

[forsberg]

The Questions:
Shouldnt i get files that are the same size as pdocread.exe -l shows?

IE.
When i do the first extraction i get a file thats called Part00.raw and it is 3.1MB but it pdocread.exe says it should be 3.12MB

When i do the second extraction i get a file thats called Part01.raw and it is 3.0MB but it pdocread.exe says it should be 3.63MB

Its the same with Part02 and Part03 they are Not the size that pdocread say.


Or is it the sum of all files that matters (im missing about 15 MB i think)?
I think i read somewhere that the sizes doesnt matter because they differ on a Swedish WM6.1 and a Spanish WM6.1 and its the sum of all the parts pdocread.exe see thats important, is that true or not???

One new question tho
How should i use pdocread.exe?
Shouldnt i use the values that pdocread.exe -l shows and run the command like this:
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part01 0 0x3a0000 Part01.raw
since my second partition starts at 0x3a0000 and not like in the first post.


the answer to you questions are yes.
The answer cant be yes on both.

For reconstruction process, you only need part01 and part02. So what is your exact problem? Did you extract part01 and part02? what error did you get?


Since this is the dump thread, im only concerned about dumping.

We need more info to help you, mate...

If you :eek: read :eek: my first post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2327744&postcount=160) where i specified everything very 'verbose' you shouldnt need to ask me for more information.

A summary of this is:
i dont get what 'PDOCREAD.EXE -L' say in raw-files when i use the command in the first post and
when i use 'PDOCREAD.EXE' as i think i should it halts with an 'cant read error'
pdocread -w -d FLASHDR -b 0x800 -p Part01 0 0x3a0000 Part01.raw



Hoping for some answers :D

I managed it to dump them to my PC. Now I need to find out how to rebuild them, so I can use them in times when something goes wrong? By the way. I had my device just a few weeks back from repair and have new Roms on it know. My sound, GPS and Telephone are working much better know. I have great telephone reception now.

Is gues there is a good thread for rebuilding allso.

Thank you very much

I have a HTC Touch Cruise
Dutch 6.0 version

[homesnail]

First of all thank U for the grat howto!

I have a questions (actually two but the other isn't really to this topic. anyway just a try :) ) :
- will this dump method save the original radio too?
- what if I haven't dumped the original SPL? I know this is not the "restoring to the original state" topic but what do U think? Will the varranty be available if I put another bootloaderback? Will the shop know if that is not the original SPL? (I know they modifyed the ROM as they put language to the device so may be they noted the original datas)

thanks!

[NetSkipper]

Hello all.
Can anyone please tell me how to extract (and reflash it later) the splash screen from the operator? The one that goes after the "smart mobilty", the one that shows the:

what are the sizes of these supposed to be does this look right:

Thanks for your help I know the noob questions can be annoying so i apologise, at least I got there in the end

Hello!

I believe this is my first post! First of all, I want to congratulate everyone on this site for their awesome work! I learned so much on this site, and managed to tweak and fix my phone in any possible way already.

Now that I've achieved a nice stable point with my ppc (kaiser), I'd like to backup my full rom estate, which I've done already with these magnificent tools "pof" seems to have devoloped! BTW ...awesome work dude! :D

Anyway, getting to the point, now that I have my raw data, I'd like to know how I can get it compiled into a flashable file (or is this raw data flashable?) to restore my device back to this exact state whenever I feel the need.

Thanks in advance! This is an awesome site and I know someone will help me out! :D

Here's some good advice:

If you don't know what HKLM is, then DON'T play with these tools.
If you don't know what command prompt is, then DON'T play with these tools.
If you don't know how to override Vista's security and you're running Vista, then DON'T play with these tools.

If you choose to ignore my advice (and it applies to you) then do something amazing: Google for it! Who knows, you might even learn something!

sorry guys I am posting here but I didnt get answer so far for my proble so I posted in this 1.

I have Touch Diamond and I want to dump my IPL and SPL. how can I do that and how can I find those Hex numbers( I saw somthing in Wiki but cant get how u guys get those numbers[For SPL not Rom])

[acidburn_99]

I know this is the kaiser tread (which I also have ;) )
But I have a Jade now as well with the folowing dutch specs:
ROM:1.40.404.3 (21259)
10/27/08
Radio 0.27.30.09
If anybody wants it, just learn me how to dump it :)

[skiper1988]

Hi guys I ma kind of new around here and I am trying to get an english rom on my htc dual touch ....
i got here from anothe page of this forum where were instructions, after i downloaded first file called itsutilsbin-20070705 I was supposed to use Keiser method to dump my rom, but since i got here i have simply no idea how to use it and even though i have read most of posts on this page it didnt make anything clearer for me...

Is there kind of detailed guide how to go through this process for beginners like me or the only way is get Pro knowledge first???

[DavidMc0]

I recently dumped my Kaiser rom, and sadly there's no beginner's guide, so you just need to figure it out.

Basically, once you have the itsutilsbin, unzip all the files to a directory, then use CMD.exe (should be in your Windows/system32 folder) to run the commands that are shown in the first post of this thread ('pdocread.exe -l' etc).

To change to the directory you need in CMD, use the command:CD C:\temp (where c:\temp is whatever directory you unzipped itsutilsbin to)

Not sure if this helps you, but it's where I got stuck (I'm too young to have experienced command line stuff... or perhaps too lazy)!

I can't comment on doing it with a touch Dual, but with a Kaiser it's definitely possible from these instructions (after a lot of trial and error due to lack of a beginners guide).

Now I'm stuck on reconstruction... och well!

As DavidMc0 says,

This is all cmd line based.

Do, Start, Run, Cmd and press enter to get a Console, then do CD\ to get to the C:\ Drive and then CD <dirname> to change to the folder you unzipped itsutils to (Hint: use tab to complete dir names).

The process for TouchDual should be the same as the Kaiser.

Anyone feel like making a couple bucks tearing a rom apart for me please?

Anyone feel like making a couple bucks tearing a rom apart for me please?

Meaning what? :confused::confused:
Dumping a ROM from your phone? Extracting a ROM from an NBH file? Dumping a ROM in the Kitchen and re-cooking it?


Thanks

Sorry for the lack of information

Yes taking an already cooked rom putting it into a kitchen for me and maybe helping me update the sys files that are already in it. I want to update the rom to new files that have been leaked. I'm using CG Caulkins 1.3 kitchen Im a new cook and still doing MUCH research and reading but would love a bit of a cheat and some help here

[freewind29]

managed to dump my rom, feel good and thanks a lot!

[lufc]

nice thanks

[j101399j]

I have cooked quite a few roms and want more options. I have tried dumping a few roms and for some reason keep screwing up after the dump (dump works great). The question I have is, what do you look for when picking a rom to dump, and when you dump the rom, what really gets dumped?

[j_cart007]

You can't do it using pdocread.

Have a read of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359015 for more info...

I have never tried myself. Try PM'ing P1Tater or AllTheWay, I think they have experience in this matter. If they're no use let me know and I'll see if I can de-cipher it.

[luiggi]

I managed to get my ROM 1.84.515.0 ESN dumped, that`s a very simple process once one knows how to do it, of course you learn it reading! So thanks a lot to all contributors to this thread.

NanoRuler rules! This is the best advice I ever read in the forums

If you don't know what HKLM is, then DON'T play with these tools.

i did this

HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies
valuename '00001001' was set to dword:2, change it to dword:1

i have only 1 HTC TOUCH DUAL and i want to change my ROM .. ie from wm 6.0 to 6.5

b4 that i want to be sure that i dont make my cellphone unusable.

so i decided to backup current ROM and Update to 6.5 ....

if i try to update to 6.5 and it doesnt work will i be able to use this to restore the ROM .. pls reply

[DaveShaw]

Yes, but the RAW files will need re-building into a ROM, see the Kaiser ROM Reconstruction thread for help.

Also, I'm sure there are loads of Dumped or Shipped Nike ROMs in that forum.
