Please some help: I couldn't get a file out my Windows directory - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello,
I want try something. Get a better sound with a bluetooth carkit with my TyTN II.
Therefor I want to copy the OEMAGW.dll in the \Windows\ directory of my Qtek S200 to my HTC TyTN II. But I couldn't copy the files. I've tried with Total Commander. Properties -> unchecked everything (for example hidden file).
Could soemone help me get thse files out the directory and replace it.
When this has been done I'll do some tests and ofcourse I'll wrote them done here!
Thanx in forward.

There are two things you should know:
1) Most files you see in windows directory are part of ROM and can not be copied out. If you want them you need to dump and unpack the ROM.
(See WiKi for details)
2) Usually taking hardware related DLLs from one device and putting it on a different device will only cause it to malfunction.

True VGA

hi,
i have installed (partially) the true VGA option on my universal according to tips given in the hack from http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41968 but i am having some problems.
the instruction states :
1 copy the files in windows folders files to windows dir of mobile
2 copy and run sdkcerts.cab to mobile
3 run ozvga and press ozvga button
4 copy files in vga system folders to windows dir for updated vga system files
5 copy and run vjbigphone091 , vjbigphonebuttons , vjbigphonebackdrop
6 soft reset and vga mode activated
now what i have noticed :
1 done
2 done
3 done
4 here is the problem..when i try to copy these files using ActivSync i am getting error messgae that i cannot copy file cos they are not read-only files, even if i change them to read-only files i am still unable to copy them, acces denied while copying.
5 done
6 done
after doing 5 of 6 steeps i am running my universal in VGA mode but why cannt i copy these file and are they really needed ?
in addition i can say that VGA seems not to suprt wisbar and some other program , is there any list of compatible software.
can i change the size of icon and task bar and other stuff while running VGa mode. where can i find some more info about VGA ??
i am using mda pro with not the lates ROM ( just bought my mda )
any help and ideas are appreaciated !
cheers, cudo
Use Resco File Explorer to copy the protected files, as though it still recognises they are 'system' files the program does overwrite them with the ones you need.
This has been covered elsewhere on the forums.

hi, i have been llokin for this thread but couldnt find anywhere..can u give me a link ?
cheers, cudo
is there any other way to "activate" true vga on universal ?
Don't use the VGA files from Ozvga, there are files on the XDA developers ftp site (I think they are in an archive called VGA_AKU2.zip). This has the sdkcerts.cab file and a folder called windows. I have the contents of this archive and ozvga sotred on my SD card and whenever I hard reset or upgrade the ROM I run sdkcerts.cab and use total commander on the phone (I suppose resco would do the same job if you have it installed) to copy the windows folder to the root filesystem of the phone, it will complain that there is a folder called windows there already but just hit OK to copy over it, it won't replace any critical files. You can run ozvga from the SD card but I tend to copy it into main sotrage so that if I swap cards its always available.
OR better yet, search the darn forum before you do ANYTHING to your Universal. Not like I haven't posted the same thing over and over.

How To Get Wmp10 Mobile Into A Wm2003se Rom ?.....

I am seeking some wisdom on the subject of Pocket PC ROM files...
The purpose of my enquiry is to ask if anyone would know how one might be able to extract a ROM image from a Pocket PC in such a way as to preserve the file structure and make it possible to extract (copy) specific files that normally sit in the \windows directory but are read only and unable to be copied from the PPC. An ideal would be to be able to read the ROM and write the file structure onto either an SD/CF card or simply to the flash RAM in the device itself.
The reason I am trying to do this is to extract either just the codec or if necessary the .exe and .dlls needed to be able to run Windows Media Player 10 Mobile on my Toshiba e830. This would enable playing .wma Lossless audio files - better than the Variable Bit Rate capability of the WMP9 codec.
I have an iPaq hx4700 which had WM10 mobile included in its original SE build and also the WM5 upgrade image that has since been installed on this device as a suitable source. I have looked through the WM5 ROM in a hex editor (UltraEdit-32) but cannot identify which parts of the code are relevant.
Through browsing the threads on this forum I have found and tried various of the Grab-It tools. I hoped that maybe it would be possible to find / extract the WMP10 hex from the WM5 ROM Image and transplant into an image of the e830 saved with Grab-It. Unfortunately I simply get repeated error messages >> Cannot create file! <<when trying to run Grab-It - I have tried (all) of the versions on both the hx4700 (with WM5) and the e830 (WM2003SE) with the same results.
Any suggestions you have as to how this could be accomplished would be greatly appreciated !
Best Regards,
Kevin

How can i extract keybddr.dll from my device!!!

Hello everybody
when i update my device to a newer rom i found couple problems on my hardware keyboard ,, and somebody told me you have to copy keybddr.dll from your previus rom ( i-mate K-Jam 2.16 arb ) then copy the file to windows folder on the newer rom ( accept the replacing )
but when i try to copy it i get the message : you can't copy the file
i used resco explorer and total commander all same problem.
im not an experience on dumping , if something can i do it without coding ; it will very well .
if you need the rom here you are ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/K-JAM_Arabic_2160901_21609102_20710_ship.zip
thanx in advanced
In my mind, copy it is a problem, ovewrite it to your device is another problem. First problem is easy to deal, if the system is WM5, the second one perhaps is easy too if you can modify the registry to rename the drivers' name.

How to copy .dll files from the device?

I tried to copy a bunch of .dll files from \Windows
I encountered a couple of problems doing that:
1. Some files are not shown on the PC in Windows Explorer though I've enabled viewing hidden and system files. However, these files are shown on the device in Resco Explorer, but can't be copied to e.g. \Storage Card
2. Some files are shown on PC in Windows Explorer but are in use and therefore can't be copied
What are the tricks to back up those files?
PS: My device (S710 Vox) is unlocked using M$ Security Manager
No tricks.
If you bothered to learn anything about your device you would know that these files are part of ROM and can not be copied out.
Don't mean to be rude but this was asked and answered many times before. Do a search on "ROM dump"
Yeah stupid me...
Dumped the ROM and got the files I want
(http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Vox_HowToDumpRom)
Actually I can't find coredll.dll in my ROM dump.
I used viewimgfs.exe to dump Part02. I can't use viewimgfs.exe on Part00 and Part01.
Is there another tool which can retrieve coredll.dll and perhaps other missing files?
Another question: can the S710 be flashed by using imgfs tools v1.82 to create the image(s) and a generic HTC flash tool?

Jade Phone Dial Pad

I find that the original phone dial pad is rather dull, so I modified it (see attached) and would like to share with other users. If you like the new dial pad do the followings for installation.
How to install?
A) Find the 5 files below in \windows directory and copy to a another directory (just in case) using Total Commander (or others)
a) Assets_Dialer_Normal.bmp
b) Assets_Dialer_pressed.bmp
c) Dialer_Bkgnd_Port.bmp
d) Dialer_back_key_press.bmp
e) Dialer_back_key_normal.bmp
1) Unzip the attached file -> gives you 5 files as above
2) Ensure that the 5 files is a system file (attributes system - checked)
3) Copy the 5 files above into your \windows directory
4) Soft rest
*** In case it does not work in your set (very unlikely), just copy the original files in step A) above to \windows directory.
this is a great mod - but, the bmp files are set in rom according to the file properties when viewed in total comander. So i cant rename or delete them nor can i overwrite them with your new files. I have jade 110 with hard spl rom flashed with HTC oem rom.
any ideas how to overcome this or am i doing something wrong
TIA

I am not sure why. I've copied the files to a few different sets (stock rom, though) and they work fine. The files are not in rom. It could be due to your rom.
however, if want to change back to the original keypad how ah?

As far as I understand it you have to copy back your saved original files.
By the way: I can not find these files on my Jade (with TotalCommander).
Owh..ic ic...thanks for clearing that up. Does anyone has those files? Just wanna keep incase.
I changed to a new skin, and the original one kinda looks better with the skin. But i think i accidentally replaced them. Can someone assist me please?
