[APP]Apps\Scripts to backup Personal info(and AutoRestore) |"FlashBack 0.6"| 10-23-09
UPDATE: 10-22-09 FlashBack 0.6
-Added program tab backup and autorestore
-Added MySpace profile(Microsoft MySpace)
-Added some more Game and Software items
-Added Zensor autorestore and autoload(autoload still needs some work)
UPDATE: 8-27-09 FlashBack 0.5
Uploading latest package from my kitchen. I will put together a cab soon, but for now you can use the flashback script from the package and overwrite original
Changelog:
Made some minor modifications as well as some optimization to reduce errors when restoring.
-Added Wifi Locations backup under software
-Added double check for manila autorestore. This way if you have non manila ROM It will not try to load manila.
For this to work correctly you need to add the following lines to your manila app.reg:
Code:
;FlashBack support
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\FlashBack]
"ManilaExists"=dword:1
NOTE: Make sure to disable weather restore or delete the database when switching manila builds
Still taking further requests and hoping for some help from the real mort pros
UPDATE: 8-3-09
-Some fixes for missed lines
-Fixed G-Alarm(misspelled something causing no backup)
-added Facebook backup(not fully tested)
-added world clock cities
-Changed backup of manila files to use INI
-If you have cooked an older version into your ROM, be sure to use the newest FlashBack to backup Manila data again. The new AutoRestore script relies on the new INI files.
-Any more software requests?
UPDATE: Huge update.
Added:
-more personal settings(Buttons)
-Tools*
-Manila Wallpaper and Weather(tested .png and .jpg wallpapers)
-Made a package which will restore all saved settings when cooked into ROM.
-Added option to Auto restore. Auto is enabled by default. Look under tools.
-Added support for some builds of Opera
-Added option to Auto load Manila after Flash as oposed to "Windows Default" AKA Titanium. I prefer Manila, so if you enable the option and its cooked in you can have it right after flash.
-Prepared for adding program registrations
Check it out and let me know if it is all working for you. Please note that I will not be held responsible for any loss of data(should that somehow occur, but dont know how it would). Attaching Visual Package and cab. Legacy package will come soon. Edit: Legacy is here, but not sure if it works as I dont use legacy. Please report back for others.

EDIT: The "RestoreAll" mortscrpt in packages has an extra quotation mark on line 29. Remove the first one before cooking. Should look like this:
Code:
regwritedword("HKLM","Software\FlashBack","Finished",1)
as opposed to this:
Code:
regwritedword([B]"[/B]"HKLM","Software\FlashBack","Finished",1)
This is not a needed step, but it is to double check that Restoreall does not run more than once. There is provision in the script for it to delete the link from startup as well.
Another note: Some features still need some more work to function properly. This is all trial and error as I have to find all the appropriate keys for each item. Some have more than one key which needs backed up. Thanks for trying FlashBack
UPDATE: 7-27-09
After some more work with mortscript(and some help from Noonski, thanks bud) I have put together another backup script which backs up personal info such as :
-Bluetooth Partners
-Wifi Networks
-Owner Info
-Volume
-Rings and Alerts
-Backlight settings
It is still a work in progress, but figured I would put it out there for testing and also feedback on what else to add. Noonski showed me the command lines needed to export and import reg, so now it is just a matter of adding the correct keys. I am learning as I go, so bear with me here. Feel free to test this script and add feedback here. If you are skilled with mortscript feel free to take what I have and make it better. Here is the zip with a cab(which has the script, an exe with icon and dotfred's taskmanager to import the keys). I also included the script and exe to make it easier for others to add or change things. Thanks for trying it By the way I call it Flash Back because I flash so manyt ROMs and I just want my info back in an easy way
LINK RIGHT HERE
I am very new to mortscript, so this may not be as pretty as some of the pro's might be able to do. I am hoping that someone would be interested in this and develop it further. Basically, this will copy the saved game files from teeter(labrynth) and Resco Bubbles. I started out with teeter, then found the save file for Resco, and I am thinking of adding other games/Apps to the backup list. If you know where the program data is saved, should be pretty easy to add to the list.
This script is not as advanced as it could be, but does the job required. It copies only to a specific location. Which is "\storage card\phone backup\*"
it will create the needed folders, and have separate folder for each program. I wanted it this way because I can then make a script to run in SASHIMI and restore everything on auto.
Attatched are 2 cabs. One is only for Teeter backup, the second is for both games. Includes shortcut and icons.
This is one of my first mortscript applications, so go easy on me. Just thought I would share. I know I am flashing so many ROMs that I could never get to the end of any games, so it sounded pretty handy to me. Once I get things commented out and cleaned up a bit, I will share the script for mort-pro's to fix up and optimize(hopefully). I will also share my autorestore script for SASHIMI or UC when I get it done and checked.
This seems handy dandy! I play Teeter and Resco Bubbles often! Now if only it had a cool interface with two big fancy buttons haha.
Edit: Never mind. Opened the cab and found your script.
Can you tell me where the Resco Bubbles data is stored? I had to do a hard reset and lost my saved games. I have my backups. Would love to recover the files.
Thanks!
Jason
This could become a usefull script - I for one have backed up my GAlarm reg keys because it is so annoying entering my alarm settings everytime I flash or hard reset.
Other things i'd like to be included for back up / restore...
Device Name
bluetooth pairings
WIFI settings
Game High scores & level achieved
threaded messaging ON
basically all the things I re-enter when I flash the phone!
Still learning about mort, so hopefully someone an step up to help. We would need to find a way to copy the registry entries for some of these things or somehow export and import. I know SASHIMI uses sktools, or used to at least to import export registry entries. I'll have a look at the script when I get some time off. Going to be busy for at least a few days with work, but this sounds interesting to me. I'd like to be able to hard reset or flash a ROM and have everything set up the way I want and everything restored. Although most of the registry tweaks I do in my build process, but the saved data really helps.
Lol, how to cheat at solitaire:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Solitaire.
Not that I've ever done it before.
I was thinking we could also make it so you could select a level to start at by keeping individual file from each level progression. This might not be the best way, but it might be an option. Would have to have a copy of the userdata.dat from each level. ie: complete level 1, copy userdata, complete 2 copy userdata, etc. Anyone interested? not sure how big the app would become this way, but I think it would be nice to choose level to begin. Anyone interested in helping get all the files? I could write a script to copy the file, and maybe rename each one as userdata_1.dat, ....2.dat, etc. Or maybe someone could figure out how to edit the data file correctly. Looks like there is only this:
Code:
6>
inside of the dat file for level 16.
Code:
Ӧ
level 18. Seems random to me, but maybe someone can understand if there is something to understand.
Added a new script. See first post
Updated Flash Back script. See first post
UPDATED. See first post
Just a little trick that I use that might be helpful... SKTracker is priceless! So - for example - if you have a setting you would like to save, start up SKTracker and take a snapshot, then change the setting, then take another snapshot. Then compare the two in SKTracker. It will show you all the registry entries that changed.
Uploaded lates FlashBack version 0.5. See first post
I want to make this into an actual program. Would any developer like to help? I am a total newb trying to learn VB or similar. Could someone share some sample code to :
-copy mutiple files(or make compressed backup in a centralized .zip)
-import/export registry
I know these sound like simple things, but as a newb it would be nice to see sample code I have figured out the UI part and navigating forms, but still dont know these basic commands
Thanks for any help or if a developer would like to help with an open source files/registry backup software
Updated to FlashBack 0.6. See first post for details
Hello, does that backup Manila's Facebook-Contacts link?
Gday - i have tried using FlashBack to backup the following items
Personal Data -> Rings and Alerts
Personal Data -> Wifi Networks
Software -> Resco Explorer
Manila -> Weather
All of them say they were succesful, but on restoring only the Manila weather worked - everything else did not restore. And when i look in the Phone Bakup folder on my storage card I have a Manila subfolder wih Manila.ini and Weather folder with a manila file in it (which is obviuosly the weather backup) and the only other folder is called RegKeys but it is completely empty. So evidently the Rings/Alerts, Reso Explorer and Wifi Networks are not creating any reg files or other files in the backup area
Any ideas?
amazing!!!! i'll cook it in my next rom compilation to give it a try!
thank you
Yeah gotta try this out. Awesome idea. But has DEV stopped?

Yeah seems to gave stopped... i never had a response to my queries in november (about 3 posts up). Most of the items i tried to backup with this script didnt actually seem to create any backup files and thus werent restored.
I just researched and discovered myself the various files and registry items that need to be backed up for the various things i wanted to maintain between flashes, and use SASHIMI to do it. It is brilliant and saved me hours of customising after a flash. I strongly reccomend to check out SASHIMI
Hi
How does one cook a custom theme into a ROM and make that the default theme? I've tried editing quite a few registry entrys and it still does not work.
Another question along the same lines, how do i cook in a custom today wallpaper? I've tried changing registry entrys here as well but it didn't work either
Thanks
Mod edit: Solved thread
well...
long history here...
First.. the themes for 6.5 and 6.5.X are not the same theme, so genereally if you want to cook inside a theme that you have made... simply be sure that you have a TSK that contains all the registry entries for images and the two images in JPG format with your size screen set them as "read only" and "archive" attribs then save the cab as winmo cab then rename it from .cab to .tsk then.... put it into a EXT pkg in your EVK kitchen or whatever you have EVK or OSK make a pkg called "my theme name" inside a folder called "FILES" inside that folder all images of the theme and the TSK too... then go to your RUNCC or autoinstall or however you have and set in the txt file this comand...
TSK: \Windows\My theme name.tsk
at the end of the file this way in the botting procces frist customization the theme will be set as default
is the dirt way but you can make it safely instead of changing many regs that simply you will forgot the original
Y'all must to remember that if you want to patch the theme or install a them in a runing working rom in teh device you must to trust sign the TSK but if you are cooking the kitchen will do it for you
The wall paper is easy: just set whatever pic you want as the wallpaper using either Home-settings or the pic and video tool. Then open \windows, and look for the newest files. You'll see two files named stwater_###x###.png or something very similar (could be tdywater). Grab these two files and then when you're editing a .tsk file, include the files in it. Now you're done.
If you want to cook the theme straight into the rom, then you need to dump all of the reg keys and put them into an app.reg file in a package that runs at the end of the build. Name your two wallpaper files (portrait and landscape) "classicblue_stwater_480_640.jpg" and "classicblue_stwater_640_480.jpg," and stick them in the same EXT. (To get the proper names for your device, look in (SYS\Build#\dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640\COMMON\base_dpi_192_resh_480_resv_640), obviously with the proper resolution.) Look through your add2config.txt or config.txt files, and make sure that no other stock .tsk is run during customization.
I know i to cook a theme and set as default and blabla....but its interesting know how to trust sign the TSK when i make a theme.cab to put in a working rom...can you explain?

A way that bobsbbq has taught me, and has worked for a 6.5.5 theme
make a new folder in your EXT packes, called whatever the theme is, and in there make another folder called files, in the files folder copy across everything in the theme's cab. then go back into the root of the themes package folder and make a new text document called add2config in there paste the following:
TSK: \Windows\XXXX.tsk
where XXXX is the exact name of yout .tsk file found in the themes cab (so it will also be in the files folder if you want to copy the file name exactly.
Save the text document and then just select it in your kitchen

I started having problems with Farmer Ted's way so I tried this one instead. It works perfectly except for one thing, that it needs a restart before it's effective. Is there any way to get it working on first boot?
I use this one:
OEM\ExtendedPKG\config.txt
Code:
LOCK:Enabled
TSK: \WINDOWS\Htc_black.tsk
LOCK:Disabled
RST: Reset
This will set that theme on first boot, of course you need to have RunnCC running.
You must change Htc_black.tsk with your tsk name.

I did mine exactly like that but it doesn't work. It only works after I reboot the phone atleast once
EDIT: I noticed if i go to settings/home, it is set as the default theme (it's hilighted) but it's not actually visible anywhere.
EDIT2: Never mind it's sorted out. I went back to Farmer Ted's way and got it to work exactly how I wanted it.

Does this method select the theme on 1st boot?
btw, how do you select a default Wallpaper for Manila's Home Tab?
sometimes you need to take your theme tsk rename it to .cab open it with cab manager and change the pics inside
the manila use as default a pic inside the EXT or OEM pkg it contains the manila app... search for the image and just replace it same size, and attributes.

Thanks. Will try it out
what would the image name be? in EXT Manila.exe is only in Manila_Core and I don't have any image there except Manila files...
In OEM I saw the default HTC Black.tsk along with HTC stwater images...
Do I need to replace these 2 Images (HTC Black Stwater... 480x800 and 800x480)?
I was hoping someone could help me out. I've been trying for a while to make a working OEM out of a few sense 2.5 cabs. At the moment I have 2 to choose from, one posted on modaco(thread http://www.modaco.com/content/i8000...07676/noobody-and-rapid-sense-2-5-rom-nxxje2/ and file link http://www.4shared.com/file/uV-HPoiM/nOObody__Rapid_Sense_252011_Rh.html) and http://www.freeza-inc.com/freezaROM/OEMCAB/fi. Sense - 2.5.2011.3030 for WM6.1 beta.cab(makes it easier, these cabs include full package, I've tried grabbing oem's from ppcKitchen with limited success). I was hoping someone could post a tutorial about converting cabs like such ^^ to an oem package for use with buildOS. Thanks in advance for any help.
This should help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467842
When I use that tool the oem will build but not work. I've tried a few other tools but they also don't create working oems. cab2oem, oemizer etc.
I don't use sense, so haven't installed the cab, but here's how I make more complicated packages: Run sk tracker, and take a system snapshot. Install the cab, and run sk tracker again and take a second snapshot and compare the first two snapshots. Copy all new files to your oem (or EXT). Export all new reg keys to an app.reg or .rgu. My guess is that all the files go into \windows, so you won't need to deal with initflashes.txt files or app.dat files. You may need to get sense running (if it isn't running after the cab install). If you have to start it up (may require a soft reset), then run it and take a 3d snapshot. Compare shots 2 to 3-there could be a few new registry keys. Most are going to be in obvious places, like HKCU(or LM)\software\HTC\Manila, but you may have some certificates installed in odd places as well as random crap you'd never find without sk tracker in HKCR. You probably need all of these keys. The problem with just using an oem creator is that there may be reg keys installed by a setup.dll, or reg keys installed when the program first launches, and you'll miss these.
Remove any setup.dll from the package-it won't be needed. And since you're using buildos, I guess you'll need to create a .dsm (have fun with that-nicest thing about EVK is you don't need them). I guess there may be a startup shortcut, so you'll need the initflashfiles to get it in \windows\startup, unless you use an HKLM\init key to start sense up.
look at the main stickie or kitchen tools repository thread search for cab converter it works... but if your cab has a setup.dll will be hard you need to see whats inside of the setupdll and try to add that things to the OEM mannually like resources or regs
I've been reading up on cooking ROM's and with the help of leeston i managed to create a basic ROM earlier in the week. After searching for guides / tutorials on this stuff im really not that much the wiser, i cant seem to find anything that explains it well enough, there always missing details. The actual cooking process seems fairly straightforward but its those extra bits im missing ie
how do i add my own packages - am i right in just copying them to the SYS folder or is there more to it ?
how do i edit the registry - I know how to edit the registry once the ROM is loaded onto my phone but how do i do it from the ROM without the phone ?
how do i add things to the start menu - When i add packages to the SYS folder and load the ROM into my phone the shortcuts dont seem to be in my start menu
how do i add sense - i've loaded the packages but it never starts and theres no sense option in today settings
im new to this so as you'd imagine the questions i have are endless ...
Im sure most of this info is on XDA already somewhere but i just cant find it, maybe im searching for the wrong term or something.
Any help from the chef's would be great, perhaps you could provide links to tutorials / info you've used when learning to cook. Im sure this stuff would be useful to everyone and may even encourage more to have a go at cooking .

I am still new to cooking but I'll tell you what i believe to be correct.
1.Yes. To add a package to a rom you put the package into the SYS folder.
However be aware that the kitchen used for the TG01 cannot handle EXT (visual) packages, only OEM (old) packages can be used. Use Totalfires package converter to convert between the 2 types.
The above info is not strictly true but is what you need to know when cooking for the TG and i don't have the time or knowledge to write a complete tutorial.
2. Editing the registry is all to do with .RGU files, you can create a package with a new one in or edit the existing ones within the packages in the SYS folder. You can edit them with notepad but i suggest using Notepad2.
Once you open an .RGU file you should recognize the reg key text in the file and edit it accordingly. As far as i am aware the file MUST have REGEDIT4 in the first line and an empty line at the bottom in order to work. Another way is to edit the regkey on your device then export the regkey using resco or something similar, then rename the resulting file from .reg to .rgu then open it in note pad and copy and paste it into another packages .rgu file, or create a custom package for that .rgu file.
The registry can also be modified using cab files during autorun, but this can be a little messy as the cab can be uninstalled by the end user causing problems.
3. To do this you need to edit the initflashs.txt file within the . This can be done manually or with one of the many package tools available on this site. The one i use is below, it does the hardwork for you, you click a few options and it edits the required files as needed.
4. Sense is a funny one. You should just need to add all the required packages to the SYS folder and away it goes. Unfortunately this is rarely the case. It should just a case of making sure all the sense packages are there, including its many dependencies. Sense is one of my weaker areas so maybe some one else has better advice.
Hope this is useful.

Hi my friend, I have a problem to cook a ROM with cab which required a reboot or witch have a information message ( SWYPE or GPSMOdDriver for example)
Do you know a solution for this please?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the info leeston and miro ;-). I havent had time to try it yet but will be over weekend and im almost sure now i know where to find the registry files ill be able to cook something decent up since that was my main problem. Thanks again for the help.

I may be wrong but when the cab files are first installed doesnt it automatically reboot ? If not you can always do a manual reboot ;-).
I've tried everything to get sense working but im just having no luck ... copied the packages to the sys folder, flashes fine, boots fine but no sense and now theres no setting shortcut in the start menu ?
Could i ask for the exact procedure for installing sense please ? Im getting my packages from here but replacing the 2017 home with 2016. Could i perhaps be missing something ?

The solutoin is to use autorun instead of cabinstl, you can then write a custom script to handle the input required by the cab.
However this is above my head, and i couldn't get autorun to work. FFBOY knows how but i doubt you will get his help as he doesn't seem to check any threads other than his own rom threads, and if he does his responces are few and far between.

Those are the packages i used and they work so it's not the packages, but i cheated and dumped a sense rom then modified it. I don't have time to try and work out how to do it properly unfortunatley.

Well atleast i know the packages are fine, i was starting to wonder if that was the problem . Theres some satisfaction in doing it yourself but like miro said i think its just too much for me, ill give it another go later in the week and if that fails ill just dump a sense rom like you did ... if there was just a tutorial on installing sense packages etc id be fine, with sense being so popular you'd think there to be loads of tuts.
Does anybody has Resco Explorer in ext package?
Tried to do it but i miss resco registry and resco ftp.
Thanks!!
What exactly do you want to get? I have it (selfmade).... But it's free for sure....
One more thing - I use OEM regular structure - not EXT (For OsBuilder). It's a normal package - with rgu and dsm.... Registry is a separate cab - you should add it to the package. FTP is a part of explorer - just added features.

Well, in Resco site there is one cab for all the subprograms that are included in the resco 2010 8.10 version.
It is this cab I tried to convert to ext package.Everyrhing works except registry function.
Thanks anyway.
Attached is the app.reg (renamed to app.txt because of forums limitations) file that I use for Resco Explorer with FTP and Registry plugins added.
I didn't clean it up so it also contains the keys and values for the options and settings that I prefer having.
For future reference, I had the same issue as you at first then I used a tool called Kheb to monitor the registry changes that happen when I install cabs and customize everything. Kheb can also make diffs between different registry snapshots and even generate OEM packages based on such diffs.
I did apply your REG file, but Resco Registry not work yet, the problem is a SETUP.DLL in to the Resco Explorer CAB, it contains a secret instructions and I believe that is impossible to open it, anyway I saw some cooks with Resco Explorer and Registry in their ROMs, it's obvious that they know the secret.
I also want to know.....pleaseeeee

Make the package with cab to package software (there is in all kitchens) and then replace the reg and app.dat files with the ones attached and cook it.Works for me.
The idea goes to MusicMonk but his attached file doesnt work for me.
Just use Kheb like MusikMonk suggested; it will capture all of the reg keys that are installed by the setup.dll. You can also look in the setup.dll with notepad and probably see the keys that are installed.
If you're trying to backup you registration info, it's stored in a file in \windows called wmtrigger.dat. All of Resco's registration codes are stored in that file, so if you have several of their apps, that's all you need.

I did apply your REG file but not works for me, anyway thanks for your help, mate.
I made a CAB file from the original Resco Explorer CAB, I deleted all files except SETUP.DLL and later run it and VOILA!!! the Resco Registry works !!!!!
Unfortunately I don't need it, I need the secret instructions in SETUP.DLL, I did open it using UltraEdit but I can't find nothing.
try this it should work, but your still gonna need the code as this is not cracked
Thank you, mate, but I found the secret reg keys in the setup.dll file. I used CeRegEditor to create a registry image, later install the cab with setup.dll and I created a image again, and finally I compared the first and second image to detect the differences.
I made a new reg and all works now
Thank you very much mates
fully working resco explorer package
Fixed some shortcuts added rtoday plugin, resco update, task manager that was missing and ftp in previous packages and is attached below.
Of course it needs the usual registration process.

Have you managed to have in built registration code in it so that you dont have to feed the registration key after the installation?

The registration code is in the wmtrigger.dat file in windows folder which is created after registration.
So you have to copy this folder after registration and put it in your kitchen.

All Resco products write registration to one file It's well known for ages and it's no need to discover anything. So if you decide to use several resco products - you should install and register them all and then save the summary wmtrigger.dat - it will be one for all installed Resco-s..... And for sure - system User name should be the same for all your roms - it's also fixed in that file...
One more tip: if you occasionally decide to use cracked resco products - you will get a conflict if you use for example one legal and one cracked program simultaneously in one rom. So better use all registered.

You can use sktracker in your phone.
This program traces the changes in registry and files so if you create a snapshot with the program and then install or register applications or change the options and user settings in applications (you better do it program by program) you can easily find the changes and apply them each time you change your rom.
I apply all mods with sashimi but there are other choices also.

I used to find the registry part of any cab or software by saving the registry and comparing the one before and after with the help of registry workshop on my PC, but did not know that there exists a utility with which wmtrakker.dat"" type of new file creation can also be found out.
Thanks a lot bro!!!
It's very good
Does anyone know how to backup Resco Customizations ( e.g ToollBar Shortcuts etc ? )
