setoperator.bat - is this necessary? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

In the sun_dream ROM upgrade, I notice this file setoperator.bat which is to do with vodafone or orange. When its run, it cannot find files eg:
I:\>setoperator vodafone
Setting Operator to [vodafone] for ROM
'xda3nbftool' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
'xda3nbftool' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
'xda3nbftool' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
'xda3nbftool' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Could Not Find I:\nk.nba
Is this batch file meant to be run after the ROM burn?

This BAT is meant to modify the ROM image you are going to flash (not the flashed one). You don't write operator name as the parameter, but operator ID. For ex. Polish operator Era GSM used T-MOB009 (more examples http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades).
You can read (on clean, original, not yet reflashed device) using another program.
If you are flashing WM5/WM6 there is no need to use this BAT, as CID lock is not checked at all, and moreover: AFAIK if the device was already flashed with ANY rom without setting OP ID, original operator ID is already lost.

I wrote a tool for that, 'pput.exe' see http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html or http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/XdaUtils
I'm looking for a set of tools that enable copy using a command on the device (for instance run "robocopy /r \Windows\a.txt \Storage Card" to copy a.txt and overwrite it if it exists, even when it's readonly... Mortscript doesn't support that

XDA tools nearly there but can't understand, any help plse

I have installed jeff summers version of xda tools. And though I think I understand what I am doing I am not totally convinced. Before I embark on cooking roms and upgrading etc I would like to be able to do the following:
1: Dump my current rom from my device to my PC I can do this using XDAtools OSImage but can only Can this only be NB1(windows CE(*.nb1) type files if I try to call this NBF I get the following error:
error opening C:\program files\xdatools\bootloader_v5_15.nb0ea for reading. the system cannot find the file specified.
error opening source bootloader from C:\program files\xdatools\bootloader_v5_15.nb0ea. error opening target device.
Can I dump my device memory into a file called ‘xxxx.NBF’?
2: When I try to upgrade my ROM by:
Start OSImage tool and select source as:
‘C:\PROGRAM FILES\XDATOOLS\BINARIES\ATT160204.NB1’
Select destination as ‘device memory (via programmeA) ‘
When attempting to load an ‘NB1’ ROM from my PC to my device memory (via programmeA) I always get the following message:
ProgrammeA not found - run with --register error opening target device.
I originally ran the programmeA with --register when first installed.
I have tried searching for a solution but to no avail. Any help appreciated.
Thanks John.
If you're trying to burn your original ROM back to the device that shouldn't be a problem. Use the [...] button to locate your .nb1 ROM for the source, and select Device Memory (via Programme A) as your destination.
Have you installed ProgrammeA.exe into the binaries folder of XDATools? That's the only thing I can think of.
Thanks I have tried this but believe the problem is the ProgrammeA file but it is definetly in the binaries folder. I am running win98SE but don't think this should be a problem. When you run jeffs tools it extracts itself out under program files and places all the required files in the right directories. Would appreciate it if any one out there can supply some help ?
Thanks John
I think I know what the problem is...
I have the same problem. If you look at the dos box that pops up you see that programmeA.exe looks in to the \\Binaries\English\ folder for a *.nbf file. It looks like you will have to provide it a *.nbf file in stead of a *.nb1

Autoinstall a set of CABs (possible?)

Hi, i have updated my device to the mr. clean image.
Now i have to install all software. So i create a folder on my storage card with all necessary cab files.
Is there a possibility to have them all be installed with one click? For example to create a Batch to install them one after another?
Hope not to ask silly questions.

try this;
example;
This '\Storage Card\2577\autorun.exe' is an official M$ way of autolaunching programs from SD card, well described in MSDN...
If you put calc.exe into this folder and will rename it to autorun.exe, it will be automatically launched upon inserting this SD card in. So your calculator will pop up...
make a folder in the root of the sd card called [2577] put the cab files into the folder ,reboot the device .it should install,
alternative; use the autorun from the extended-rom to launch the files.you my need to do some editing intiothe config file.
Thanks - how can i "see" the extended rom? Editing a config file is no problem for me.

use "TOTALCOMANDER"
download ,install then open the prog ,write the folowing in totalcomander,[extended_rom] now you should see the contents of the extendedrom,you can use totalcomander to copy any file to any location.
download from here; http://www.ghisler.com/ce.htm
thank you very much to all
Problem is...all your CABS will be installed to their default installation directory (mostly Main Storage).
What I would like to know is how to make all CABS install to the Storage Card or a directory specified in the config.text?

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?

WM_BackupLauncher - Autorun EXE file from Storage Card

Hello all. I developed a custom Titan Build 21042 ROM kitchen, and one of my initial primary goals was to have the phone first boot with the radio off (details here) and then automatically restore my backup. The backup is stored on the Storage Card. Well, I have come to find out that Autorun can NOT run an EXE with a space in the path (as is the case with \Storage Card\).
I wrote this little piece of software to work around the issue. It will only run 1 EXE. A future version may run multiple commands (if I get enough requests).
The file "\Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt" tells the program what EXE to run. If you wish to run an EXE from the Storage Card in your Autorun, simply put the whole path to the EXE in "\Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt" and call WM_BackupLauncher.exe from your Autorun. This EXE must be cooked into your ROM. I have attached a ZIP'd copy of my OEM package for this program (In my Titan kitchen, I included this file in my "dj13241_UCAutorun_radioOff" USER_OEM package).
WM_BackupLauncher.exe will just exit if "\Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt" doesn't exist or the EXE referenced in the TXT file doesn't exist. If you wish to use the auto-restore functionality, create the file, and put the full path (without quotes) to the exe used to restore your backup.
SPB Backup WM_BackupLauncher Instructions:
-Copy your latest backup file to \Storage Card\SDConfig_Files\LatestBackup.exe
-Create \Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt with (no quotes):
"\Storage Card\SDConfig_Files\LatestBackup.exe"
-Follow normal restore procedure. I always click Customize Restore, uncheck System Data, click Next twice, click Options, check Force ROM upgrade mode, click Done, click Next, Select ROM Upgrade Mode on the dropdown, and uncheck Overwrite existing items, keep clicking Next until restore process starts.
PPCPimBackup WM_BackupLauncher Instructions:
-Copy PPCPimBackup.exe to \Storage Card\SDConfig_Files
-Create \Storage Card\WM_BackupLauncher.txt with (no quotes):
"\Storage Card\SDConfig_Files\PPCPimBackup.exe"
-Follow normal restore procedure
Please let me know what you think, as well as any bugs (which I don't think exist).
