A problem with pdocread

I am having a problem with pdocread.exe. Basically, I am trying to dump the ROM from my iPAQ hx2790 and I found the wiki on how to do it with the HTC Hermes. I started following the wiki which used pdocread.
Initially, it seemed to detect everything just fine using "pdocread -l":
Code:
E:\Downloaded\itsutils\build>pdocread -l

( 1.24M)
However, when I went to verify partition sizes using "pdocread -w -d....":
Code:
E:\Downloaded\itsutils\build>pdocread -w -d MSFlash -p Part00 -t
0 partitions, 0 binary partitions
customerid=00000000 uniqueid= 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

real nr of sectors: 1 - 512.00byte (0x200)
The offsets for all 3 partitions are detected as 0x200. Furthermore, they are all detected as 512 bytes.
If someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong, I'd greatly appreciate your help!
My goal is to extract MSFlashart02.

Hmm...nobody has any idea about this problem?

hmm, I just ran into this problem also. Maybe pdocread only works on FLASHDR devices?

It's not exactly clear to me, but from what I've observed it appears that if your rom is on a MSFlash device you need to use a tool that understands the MSFlash compression. You can use grab_it to create a bin of your rom followed by dumprom.exe to extract the rom sections.
If your rom is on a FLASHDR device you can use pdocread to extract each partition to a file. Then use the rdmsflsh.pl script to extract the files from the imgfs partition.
You can use pdocread -l to list your partitions and see with device your rom is on.
Do I have this right?

Thanks for your insight. I actually got the files in question from another ROM dump (the Treo 700 one) but I'm still interested in extracting the ROM from my device just as a challenge. I'll give it some further experimentation (after my CF card finishes formatting). In fact, I found that WM5torage has an option to export the Flash portion as a USB drive. I'll give it a try later...

You are using an outdated version of pdocread. please use the lates itsutils dated 2006.08.21.
Dump here pdocread -l return and the content of itsutils.log file in the root folder of your Pocket PC.
Regards,
Oki

probably a little late response, but you can try removing the '-w' flag which makes pdocread use the disk API to access the device (this must be used in the Hermes becuase it doesn't have an m-systems disc-on-chip), but on other devices without the '-w' you can dump directly from the TFFS partition.

Thanks for the help guys, I've updated to the latest version of itsutils, unfortunately I am having the same problems. If anyone is interested, I have posted the dump of what's going on:
First, I issue a pdocread -l command:

Then, I issue a pdocread -w command:
Code:

C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\itsutilsbin>pdocread -w -d MSFlash -p Part02 -t

and then, a pdocread without "-w"
Code:

C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\itsutilsbin>pdocread -d MSFlash -p Part02 -t
real nr of sectors: 1 - 512.00byte (0x200)
It seems it still is not detecting the partitions...
I have also attached the itsutils.log file if anyone is interested.
By the way, there are some differences in the size of TFFS as I sent my device in for repair and they changed the motherboard (more RAM, less ROM for some reason).
--------
EDIT: If it makes any difference, it seems pdocread can detect TFFS correctly
Code:
E:\work\itsutilsbin>pdocread -d TFFS -p Part00 -t
real nr of sectors: 153946 - 75.17Mbyte (0x4b2b400)
E:\work\itsutilsbin>pdocread -w -d TFFS -p Part00 -t
real nr of sectors: 153908 - 75.15Mbyte (0x4b26800)
but fail to detect MSFlash and the storage cards (DSK1 and DSK2) correctly
Code:
E:\work\itsutilsbin>pdocread -w -d DSK1 -p Part00 -t
ERROR: ITLogDiskInfo - The device is not ready for use.
ERROR: ITTFFSGetInfo - The device is not ready for use.
WARNING: using default 512 bytes for sectorsize
real nr of sectors: 1 - 512.00byte (0x200)
E:\work\itsutilsbin>pdocread -d DSK1 -p Part00 -t
ERROR: ITLogDiskInfo - The device is not ready for use.
ERROR: ITTFFSGetInfo - The device is not ready for use.
WARNING: using default 512 bytes for sectorsize
real nr of sectors: 1 - 512.00byte (0x200)
Hmm...so only TFFS is detected correctly, all others fail.

From your itsutils.log:
STOREINFO dev='MSFlash' store='MSFLASH for STRATAFLASH' nsect=2dd9 bpsect=1000 free=0 maxpartsize=0
It means the block size is 0x1000 (4096 bytes).
So you need to add a parameter "-b 0x1000", that is:
pdocread -w -d MSFlash -p Part02 -b 0x1000 -t

I' have the same error!.. i'll try pdocread and i'll post log
here there is my 3d http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393371&page=2

i change the version of itsutils now is 2006 08 21 and the log is that

Ohhh yes!
ok, i almost expected something like this...
STOREINFO dev='MSFLASH' store='External Storage' nsect=fc00 bpsect=800 free=0 maxpartsize=0
this is the same like on my daxian!
try this:
pdocread -w -d MSFLASH -p Part02 -b 0x800 -t
i bet it´ll work for you!

yes i think that .. i tyed and it WORK!!! ..
ok Now i dump the :
Part00
Part01
Part02

Samsung i617 Blackjack II ROM Extraction

Hi,
I am trying to extract a ROM image from my Samsung Blackjack II (i617) phone. I am using itsutils which worked on my Samsung Blackjack I (i607) phone. 'pdocread -l' works as expected. However, when I try to use the '-t' option to get the length (number of sectors) it seems to return bogus information for my intenal flash drive, altough it returns the correct data for my MicroSD card. If I try to read the data using the length from 'pdocread -l' I get an error saying the device isn't functioning.
The phone is application unlocked. I have included all of the output below. Any ideas folks?

Thanks in advance.

I too have tried dumping the rom and I am getting the exact same result as griltech. If anyone has any ideas, it would be appreciated.
Thanks

No one has had any luck with this?

if u want to extract rom it is usually in Part02 .... why dont u use:
C:\itsutils>pdocread -w -d DSK1: -b 0x800 -p Part02 0 0x5469000 Part02.raw
it will return
CopyTFFSToFile(0x0, 0x5469000, Part02.raw)
then
u can use viewimgfs on ur Part02.raw....

cruzzmz, i just re-read your message more carefully. i wasn't specifying a sector size using the '-b' option. using a sector size of 0x800 does work. i was able to dump my rom using that. thanks!

hey m8,
can you post the dump rom of the i617.
i would like to take a look at it.
thanks

O2 XDA Orbit 2 changing german rom to english !

I have a O2 Xda Orbit 2 and it has a German OS (Rom- Version 1.24.207.2 GER) on it. I want to change it to english rom. What do I have to do, What is the safest way, so theres no brick ! Please help ! Thanks !

Just find out the MUI files of the Kaiser (they will help) or may be somebody will give you the orig MUI english files from Cruise and placed into the Windows directory, after that, go to the registry and find the path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\MUI
there just add the dword "0409"="US English"
go to system and there find regional settings > go to language settings
choose US English
reboot the device
I hope it helps

I've just try this solution, and don't work....
a parameter to add there is not an DWORD but an String because in DWORD you can not insert only number.
And where is the regional setting parameter in registry? I've setting italian language in Program- regional setting-Language - Italian, but not in registry..
I've O2 xda orbit 2 german language and I wold like to have italian language, I've an extracted Cruise italian Rom, I've placed all windows file on windows directory in my orbit but don't work...
anyone have any idea?

I have also dug the threads and apparantly there doesnt exist a single working example for this. Theoratically a single "cab" file should do the trick should this be possible, pity not much support on this although it seems an important issue!

a parameter to add there is not an DWORD but an String because in DWORD you can not insert only number.
And where is the regional setting parameter in registry? I've setting italian language in Program- regional setting-Language - Italian, but not in registry..
I supoposte that only DWORD for change the language systems is SYSLANG=1040 (for italian) It's in Hex value (410 = 0410)

OK, real nice, I dug the posts from qtek_metanol, and I think he is referring to his discussions related to the "Smartphone" Tornado. Well I don't believe what you can do for smart phones can be done to pocket PC. Smart phone comes with built-in support of language change, pocket PC does not!
Although I'm still 100% sure there has to be a less intrusive way than to change the whole ROM just for the language change, at the moment there is no support for this from any "genius."
@qtek_metanol: I was reading your posts on the other thread:
"I was trying but I become the warning that the the files can not..."
your native language is German ain't it?

No it doesn't, my native language is Spanish, but i live since a long time in Germany and I prefer German as the default language, if you send me the MUI files I would do a cab file for you. Be sure to send all the MUI's. because I don't wanna have to release multiple files for one thing

I've Orbit 2 in german language (I want Italian or WWE) so if you want I can extract all file for you but I've try to use pdocread but my phone give me an error:

You can zip the ROM in to single file and there is free file sharing website http://www.zshare.net/ . After uploading the file you get a link which you can share it to us and we can download it.
Thanks buddy...

[Q] ROM HP iPAQ Glisten-AT&T dump?

hi,
it seems to be that the next gen of 914c has released with the wm 6.5 os.
does any one use this phone?
can you dump the rom and upload here.
It will be useful for cooker to make the "like HP" rom for 914c.

The phone is only avaible in America, ut if someone manages to dump to rom pherhaps we could have a native 6.5 kernell for the 9xx series?????

highly doubt you can have native kernel as nk.exe is very specific to one device. most likely the best you can do is take some software from the dump

ow yeah your right about the nks, I forgot
Pherhaps some new updated HP apps when there is a rom out.

Yes, also interested in extracting some soft from glisten

I have an iPaq Glisten, will be willing to dump the ROM if someone can provide me with the Instructions. Have access to both a XP and Win 7 PC's
Thanks

can you download this tool:
mediafire
after unrar, run the command prompt in the folder, then run the following command with activesync connected to your device:
.\Tools1\pdocread -l
.\Tools1\pdocread -t
and paste the result here so we can determine the size of rom that you need enter for the next command. thanks

if the second command (pdocread -t) return something similiar to this:
real nr of sectors: 163840 - 80.00Mbyte, 0x5000000
where 0x5000000 is your rom size (in this example, this is 61x rom size)
then run this command (repalce 0x5000000 with the size you obtaind in the above command:
.\Tools1\pdocread 0x0 0x5000000 diskimage_Ver.nb0
and upload the nb0 file to somewhere for us =)

waiting ....

If I remember it well the application is trying to copy the itsutils.dll to your device and you need to accept it other wise it fails

try this reg hack:

Any place to upload the file for free ?

try mediafire.com

So which partions do you want dumped ?

23.75M (0x17c0000) DSK2:
| 23.75M (0x17bf000) Part00
Because pdocread -t
real nr of sectors: 1 - 512.00byte, 0x200
shows a 512 byte partition, which is not the ROM (I hope)..
Also appreciate if you can give me the commands I need to run to get the correct dumps.. sorry am new at this
Thanks

I suppose Part03 is your program storage, you can verify by checking your main storage size in setting->system->memory.
ok try this to extract the imgfs (suppose to be part02):
pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part02 0 0x77c0000 Part02.raw
I think part01 is the xip, you may also extract it with this command:
pdocread -w -d DSK1: -p Part01 0 0x340000 Part03.raw
if there is error you can add the -b 0x800 switch to read using specific sectorsize
e.g
pdocread -w -d DSK1: -b 0x800 -p Part02 0 0x77c0000 Part02.raw
seems like the setup looks alike to ipaq21x...for fun you can also try using different hardware button(s) to see if you can get into bootloader mode .etc (not that i will build a rom for it haha..)
I have dig some more detail from pdadb apparently this device is manufactured by Pegatron (an ASUS division that do ODM (i.e built device for other brands) )

Hi, did you successfully dump the ipaq glisten? Dumping the ROM can unlock the phone? Mine is still locked with ATnT. Can you guys help me unlock it?

we are still waiting for the dump, and dumping the rom does not mean unlocking...unlocking is a lot of more complicated and I have no idea on that

i got a hold of the rom dump from a member, mediafire is too slow now so i probably upload later when I back home.
