Okay so I used a .EXE file I found on a site and my phone shows the android application but when I click it, it doesn't load how do I load android..?
To launch Android, run "HaRET" using the phone's File Explorer app.
It might not be strictly necessary, but you'll probably have better luck if you put all the files needed to boot Android (HaRET, the .img file, etc) in the root directory of your uSD card. I discovered the hard way that if you unzip the files and copy them to a subdirectory (say, "//Storage Card/AndroidXXX"), then proceed to launch HaRET from that subdirectory, itseems to ignore one or more of the files in that directory and will use the files in "//Storage Card" instead.

I am trying to copy or move a file from \windows which is a .dll file. I am getting an error when trying to do this programatically in C# with .NET. Does anyone know how to access the files in \Windows directory without access restrictions?
Thanks,
heimlich
if they are in the rom one cant just delete or in some cases access them runtime only at pre flashing rom image time
Could you be a bit more detailed? I want to get access to a .dll to see what their function calls are. How can I get the dll onto my desktop to view it?
Thanks,
heimlich
try copying them to your sd card using total commander
I tried that. I get an error telling me it is unable to copy files. Looks similar to error I get when I tried with native file explorer and .net File.Copy();
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

If it is in ROM, you can't copy it right out as a file, the best you can do is to LoadLibraryEx it with LOAD_LIBRARY_AS_DATAFILE, then if you can locate it in memory, you can dump it out to a file on disk.
How do I know if something is in ROM? I know it is in \windows and that is about it and in file explorer I can see the file as .dll.
thanks,
heimlich
One way is to use GSFinder. It marks ROM files with a different icon. Most of the files that are in the \Windows folder are in ROM.
Hello,
I am trying to copy a file (from my smartphone to SD card), which have a 'ROM' attribute set and... it is impossible - acces denied is showed (even in Resco Explorer, Total Commander). I can't even change that attribute.
Please help me to find any solution
Best greetings,

You should be able to extract files from the ROM file on your PC thanks to the tools provided in one of the sticky about ROMs modifications.
Unfortunatelly...

I have extracted an 'nb' file from my ROM file, but WinImage can't open it ("not FAT16, FAT32 file"). It is WM6 image file, what tools to open this 'nb' file?
Best greetings,

I, too, am trying to find a way to copy some ROM attributed files.
Ultimately, I am trying to move/copy some apps from one smartphone (WM5) to another (WM6). Is there a way to copy them to a zip file and move the files that way or maybe even using a backup copy (i.e. using Sprite Backup?) and restoring to a different phone?
Any help or direction would be appreciated. If there is another thread out there, please be sure to point me to it since searching brings up a lot of different threads.
u need to extract the rom.
Funny, but you make it sound so easy... ;-) I've been searching to figure out how to do that and found some instructions I'm hoping I can follow for the one phone, but not sure it it will apply to the old phone (WM5). If I do manage to dump the ROM, where does it go and does it extract the files in cab format for easy upload?
Update: I found a file extractor at http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6700-xv6700/56057-6700-rom-dump.html which may have originally come from Buzz... (thanks Buzz!)? so now I have all the files and modules off the old phone, but am running into some issues installing. I can transfer the files indirectly, and can find the specific application file, but when trying to run the app, it tells me that it's still missing files to enable the program. Any ideas on how to determine which files they might be or how to install the files via Activesync?
I am trying to copy files onto the Windows folder and removing some image files that are no longer in use, but I keep getting the folder is protected error. Any way around it where I can edit files or add/delete some files in the Windows folder?

You cannot remove files that are part of the ROM. You should be able to insert files but not replace them, unless you use TotalCommander.
How do you install programs on the HD.
Eg. i was trying to install HD Tweak. I downloaded the files from here. But when I open the setup file in the HD, it tried to open the file in Opera, and then stays blank!!!
What am I doing wrong?

I usually sync to my laptop and D/L from there to my documents or another appropriate file on the phone. Click and drag, easy.
I need more info. You downloaded the cab file to your PC and then copied the cab to your device via activesync? Where did you copy the file to in your HD? Generally what I do is copy the cab file from my PC to my SD card via activesync. Go to my storage card via file explorer in programs. Touch the cab file, and it installs.
I downloaded HD-Tweak from here http://montecristoff.webs.com/hdtweak.htm, but the zip file does not show a .cab file? it only shows a .xml setup file, which, when I try to open, opens in an Opera browser?
you downloaded a cab file, not a zip file, which it looks like you extracted mistakenly as a zip file which is why you're dealing w/ the xml. Copy the cab file that you downloaded from your pc to your phone and then run it on the phone.
Alternatively if you have Cabviaactivesync installed you can just right click on the cab from your pc w/ the phone attached and select CabviaActivesync and it will start the installation on your phone.
I see what's happening. The cab file is what you downloaded. Inside the cab file is a bunch of things, one of which is an xml setup file, which I think you're copying and trying to install on your device. For whatever reason, after you unzip, your taken inside the guts of the cab file. You don't copy any of that. Close out of that. You don't open a cab file. On your PC, the cab file should be an icon that looks like a blue and white file cabinet. If you see that, don't open it. Instead, either drag the icon into your device via activesync or copy it into your device via activesync. Once in the device, go to folder in which you copied it and tap on it. It should then install properly.
Wow! thanks, it worked.
So I'm new to Android tablets and got the TF700 to replace my Windows 7 tablet for trips.
The main item i want to do is backup my photo with light file management. I'm trying to find out how to select all the files with date create on 1 day and copy them but leave the rest of the files.
On windows I would find the first file and use CRTL+END then CTRL+C and CTRL+P in the directories I want to move the file to. So this may only copy 200 files out of a 600 file directory.
Is there any way to do this on android?
Currently I've got File Manager, Total Commander, Ghost Commander, OI File Manager, X-plore, ES file Explorer and Astro installed trying to figure it out.
You missed the best explorer for me : Solid Explorer beta 2 (available in the market).
If your files are named with the date inside, you can filter your files and then select all in one click, and move them where you want
Hope it will help...
