Hi there.
I need to read index.dat file (PocketIE history/cookie/cache).
I found closed-source software http://www.valksoft.com/help/IndexDat View.htm which can read this file during soft reload.
I think this can be done by hoocking boot event with CeRunAppAtEvent and coping index.dat files before they are locked by system.
Does any body did something like that or have any info about index.dat format?
Thanks.
I found .dat description (http://www.foundstone.com/pdf/wp_index_dat.pdf)
Could you tell me what does the file index.dat do?
This file contains Pocket IE browsing history

hi vijay, my problem is if i do get the dll files or exe file i need, i cant copy it into the rom either. is there a way to do this?
Not easily. You'll have to make a new rom I think. Check out itsme's posts on the wiki.

How to install the .xml files bundled in the cabs.rar?? I do not know how to make the extrom run automatically after the HR so i have to install each cab file 1 by 1, can anyone help??
Use the ones in cabs2. Also make sure you know what are those .xml for (they are replaced with .cab (s) in cabs2)
xml files are a typicaly a formatted text file like html
not really binary exe programs files
some programs use xml files to store settings and data
maybe they need to be in a location the program in question
will look for them

Did you mean copy the .xml files to the location of the program file ??
use HTCustom1.7.cab
yup...
I am having the same issue. I keep seeing these .xml files. I am not a computer guru lol. Do I cut and paste it somewhere on my phone or what? I am so lost please help.
Same thing here on my side mixtape_butcha. I'm subscibed in an Universal forum and have to install a USB switch which is a folder containing an xml file. I asked many time a guide on how to use it but nothing came back.
If you happen to know how to handle it, let me know. I'l do the same with you.

first of all it is nice that you looked up a matching post yourself and obviously searched for a solution there, but...
if i get your problem right, it doesn't match the ones before. they were talking about .xml files that came with a cab file and stored the settings on how to install and execute.
you, however, talk about a subscribtion to a thread, meaning your xml file is an RSS feed, for which you need a special reader, since PIE is not a proper desktop browser and therefore does not handle feeds. but there is a lot of software out there to handle rss feeds. i personally use spb online 1.2, but there is also freeware, like this: http://www.dewantoro.net/search/pda+rss+reader+cab
i don't get the point with the usb switch though, maybe if that didn't solve your problem you should post further details about that issue and maybe post filenames or screenshots so we all know exactly what you are about to do.
You need not worry to install xml file if it comes with a cab. Cab file should be designed to use it automatically. xml files store usually configurable settings, it may be worth opening those files using any text editor like note pad or even IE to check the contents, that may help if any change is needed. But 99% chances are that you need not do any thing with those xml files.
I have found some people run in to this problem when they download a .cab file from the internet and once downloaded it is a .rar so you extract the .rar to find NOT .cab but .xml
Here is more about it and how to fix it.

I am trying to install a game on my MDA Vario IV , it does have .xml file. But no .cab files , only .000 file , .002 , .003 , and .004 files. How do i install this game then ? The installer is the .xml file.
EDIT : Nvm , fixed it , i needed not the files within the .cab file , but just the .cab file itself to extract in on my mobile.

Couple of things:
You are in the wrong subforum. This section is for the Blue Angel. You should look for the Blackstone (aka Touch HD) section.
Now, the file that you opened is a cab file. You don't need to extract the contents of a cab file. Just copy it to your device and click on it one. The cab will install everything, including the settings in the xml.
Good luck!

I'm trying to copy a file that's in use in the ROM out somewhere. Is there any way to do this?
alternatively, is there a way to read/explore .bin files (rom)? either option is fine with me.
You need to dump and unpack the ROM. Precisely how to do this depends on the specific model of your device.
Please read the WiKi for more info.
here is a problem.
i use viewimgfs.exe to get the dll file from the dump.bin.
it is work good.
but after i got the dll file , i found the dumped dll file is larger than it in the phone.
who can tell me why??? and how should i get the correct dll file.
Thx.....
this is normal.
You haven't files in ROM at all.
You have ROM Modules.
Creation time, file size, attributes were saved in ROM from original file, but not used.
So don't worry.
Hi,GreateVK
Thanks for your help.
after u read your reply.i ready know why.thank u again..haha!
but now i want ask u how to get a correct length dll file from the dumped bin file.
