Hard-Reset-Proof writable memory?

[Tirinoarim]

Quick question for all the Dev's out there. Is there anywhere/any way to write (a tiny amount of) data that would survive a hard-reset?

Cheers

I think it is possible include this data when cook the rom an flashes this rom to your device. CMIIW

Thanks, but what the OP is after is a way to write the data after flashing the ROM.

Sometimes you can write to extendend rom, but i guesss it might be device-dependent. I'm sure it worked on Wizard and toshiba G900. And i don't think that extrom is wiped during a HR. I never tested it, but that might be something worth trying. I just don't remember how to make the extrom writable on HTC's - it's writable in the g900 by default and you can access it by typing \extpart in total commander's address bar. But i think it was a bit different on HTC's.

Most newer devices don't have Extended Rom though. My Kaiser & Raphael don't.

Oh, ok. That's why i said it might be device-dependent :)

We're looking at ways of making "WIMP" type app that cannot be removed, or have it's settings wiped. I don't think it is possible, but we are hoping.

Getting the App Cooked in is easy, stopping the settings getting wiped after "Clear Storage" is another thing. Is there a way to mark a File as in "In ROM"? Or maybe write some data to an area that isn't wiped?
