[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] dr_strangetrick:
hi there, I am trying to run from my HD2 flashed with WP7 mango and I get...

ISETool.exe - Application error

The exception unknown software exception (0xe0434352) occured in the application at location 0x75f39617

This comes up quite a few times (once per application I think) and I also get the same error when I run the isolated storage explorer tool and click on get data?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] rudelm:
nice, thx for the tool :)

another question: are you just going through the complete app folder and backing up everything along its way?

That Isolated Storage Explorer tool from MS only works with XAPs you deployed directly to the phone. Marketplace apps are protected by their license to download from the phone, I think. However you should be able to open up this paths with Advanced Explorer or TouchXplorer, because they use the OEM DLL files and native code for file access. This would involve copying the protected content to a folder accessible from your tool and then transfer to your pc.

Could someone test my theory? My Mango HD7 denies the touchXplorer or Advanced Explorer start although its an official developer phone. Must fix that finaly someday :(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] winphoneviet:
as i mentioned in post#1, i can't access the IsoStore of apps/games which is downloaded from marketplace :(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
I'll take that as a "no" then. I've been working on a "real" backup (all data, not just limited to sideloaded) and explored ISETool.exe but concluded it wouldn't work for what I need, so I was wondering if you'd done something to it that made it work better than the official version.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] winphoneviet:
i'm too busy, i'll spend sometimes to think and may be i'll figure out a way to do that :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] cina:
Ideas

Just an idea:

One can create a WP7 app that collects everything from IsoStore running on the phone and copying all to its folder. Than backup that file to PC. It is achievable as ThouchXplorer can access these folders. :rolleyes:

Restore: After ROM Update the first XAP should be this program which can restore the Backup file to phone than extract every settings to its corresponding folder on IsoStore.

There is a lot to add here:

1. Auto XAP install along restore (Use XAP folder to grab needed applications).

2. Use Marketplace to convert GUIDs to AppNames (WindowsDesktopMarketplace has a downloader that can find paid apps too - URL is stored in wp7-search.exe.config XML file).

3. Backup all phone settings (Tile layout, Wifi passwords, Call and message tones, etc)

I know it is time consuming to develop these. But sure it will be popular if some codes this.

Regards,

Cina
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] PsyCLown89:
Thanks guys!!

Really awesome applications.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] RezzZ:
same here... perhaps a windows x64 issue?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] PsyCLown89:
Ok... So I needed to make use of this earlier today and I agree with Cina. One big thong for me would be if we could get the app name instead or as well as the GUID as the GUID doesn't mean much to us.

Also the ability to backup selected applications (So it must let me pick what I want to backup/restore).

Then if you could try and find a method to backup marketplace apps, will be even more awesome! Maybe consider what Cina said... See if you can't do anything with that?

Then the last thing would be to have an option to auto-install the .xap files a well as restore the data to your phone after you have just flashed it! :-D

This application has A LOT of potential!!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Neo84:
My Backup runs without any errors but the created folders are all empty :(

I'm on HD2 with Yuki/XBMOD Mango ROM.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Pharmako:
OK, it's not working for me either, I get the error regarding ISETool after each folder has been "backed-up" and all folders are empty in the restore folder. Several people have mentioned this along the thread and so far no straightforward answers, any clue?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] dxdy:
you must install SDK 7.1 beta2
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] alan93:
Thanks.

Here's the xp install guide too.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] alan93:
I have a question.

The first time I ran i got errors and empty files. Then I ran the SDK 7.1 and got an error on the install of that. However, the backup then ran without the previous error and some folders have contents (small files about 1k) and other folders are empty. I'm wondering if it backed up correctly even if some folders are empty?

In other words, does empty folders indicate the backup did not work correctly?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] boysie:
While its backing up Navigon it gives up and moves on to the next app around Serbia to spain. About 1.6GB into the backup

So check your map dir I expect you will be missing map files

Also check the size of the dir.

Not sure why its dropping out. Its not th elock screen as i have that on 1h and im not doing any thing else that woudl cause it to fail.

:confused:

EDIT: Running ISETool manually to see if it works on its own or if i get an error logged

EDIT2: Works fine with manual cmd with ISETool, seems to hit a timeout in your app that does not exist with manually running the tool. Takes about 24mins to back up this app isolatedstore folder and seems to hit your time out around 20mins in. Hope this helps you track it down.:rolleyes:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] poker100:
Backup function works for me,

I hope restore too (with new ROM) :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] alan93:
yea keep hoping on that restore dude.

My phone was unlocked when I backed it up and had to reset do to someone else's brainy idea which bricked it and now can't get it unlocked again.

Restore evidently....would have been nice to know...does not work if the phone becomes locked again, therefore the back up is completely useless and you have lost everything.

Restorefrom in zune is just as disasterous.

Error Code 801812EO and nobody from zune knows what's going on.

This thread has tragedy written all over it.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] RezzZ:
restore from zune went fine for me. had to do it 3 times before I had mango unlocked on my trophy
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] simbadogg:
went through the thread, and didn't see this answered yet (unless i missed it), but as far as upgrading phones (since there are a lot of wave 2 phones coming out) will this allow me to restore settings upon switching to a new phone (going from focus to focus s)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
@simbadogg: Yes, this app will allow you to restore data to a different phone (though it will have the same restrictions on which apps it can and can't access, and you'll need to re-install the apps in question).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] lukasgri:
Excellent application.

Thx
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Trimegisto:
Simple question:

Can this tool back up my messages (SMS or MMS) and my IE Favorites?

Thx
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
No and No. Neither of those are "app data" as they are part of the OS.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] simbadogg:
so i'm guessing that music, since a part of the OS, couldn't be easily restored/transferred either.

i saw a while back before doing a hard reset that you are able to, i believe with some registry edits on the PC, see all the folders that are on the phone include the album/artists/podcasts/video directory that is in the zune hub.

I thought you'd be able to just copy those folders onto desktop, then copy the same folders back onto the phone, but that didn't' work at all. Would you happen to know of any way where i'd be able to copy all the music from one phone and get it onto another.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] petbede:
Hi there.

Zune software on PC or Laptop can send to and fro videos and music.

Hope I Have Been Of Help. PEACE!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] simbadogg:
yeah....i'm very aware of that. problem is, from what i've learned from @winphonesupport on twitter, there's no way you can create an "image" of all the songs that you have synced on one phone, so that you can transfer all those songs onto a second phone when upgrading or replacing a device.

i have about 7000 tracks on my computer, and my phones songs are basically a random mix of songs from that catalog. Taking 2500 songs and selecting them one at a time so i can have the same songs after changing phones is in no way realistic, which is why i was asking for a method of creating some kind of image to make copying easier.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
The usual answer to your problem, @simbaddogg, is to change the media folder that Zune uses for music. Make it something like "C:\MyPhoneMusic" or some such - the folder needs to exist, but should be empty initally. Stop monitoring any other music folders.

Then, connect your phone to Zune, and drag all the music from the phone to the PC. This will copy all music off the phone and onto your computer in the specific folder. Meanwhile, that's the only music that Zune sees on your PC. When you want to put music back from the PC to the phone, you can just sync it all back and only those specific files will get copied. Afterwards, you can make Zune monitor the correct folders again, and delete the temporary folder you used to store the PC's version of your phone's music library.

Note: this method also works for pictures/videos/etc.

Hope that helps!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] simbadogg:
yeah i actually did this a few days ago...i totally forgot that the zune software had a copy to local disk feature. only took a few minutes to setup, and worked like a charm. thanks anyways though :)

::edit::

yeah i need to make sure that next time i actually do it by changing the folder. instead i just created a new folder, moved all the songs to that folder, then copied to collection. essentially the same thing, but i could have saved the extra time of copying/deleting. but again, thanx

I have a chevron unlocked Samsung Focus with the proper win phone dev s/w installed.. I create a new folder, run backup .. No errors, the problem is that the backup file is 16k what the heck? What am I doing wrong? Wish there was a video with instructions in English. what should I do next?..

Anyone?

Does not work on my (mfg-unlocked) LG Optimus 7 / E900. Only finds sideloaded apps.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] IzaacJ:
Hello.

I backuped my apps and games (mostly bought from market, a few sideloaded) and went through the backed up content to make sure the most important was backed up (Bejeweled Live (bought) and SurvivalCraf (bought)) and the data was backed up, so I installed a new rom, installed the games again, ran them, restored successfully, but when I ran the games again it hadn't restored the data?

Really sad since I've spent about 30-40 hours in Bejeweled and done some nice structures in SurvivalCraft.

So, seems like it doesn't restore the data correctly even if the data was correctly backed up. A reboot didn't help either :(

Will try to put it back with TouchXplorer "/

Device: HTC HD2

ROM: Pdaimatejam Rom Wp7.5 mango 7740 v4

PC: Windows Vista x86

EDIT: Successfully restored the SurvivalCraft data, but found out that this tool did NOT backup the Bejeweled data, which I successfully retrieved from the device manually with ISETool. Any idea why it didn't get backed up when it worked manually?

Regards

Izaac
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] DmpYrd:
an even simpler way...

theres a much more simpler way...

create a new playlist in zune and every time you need to sync just go inside the playlist -> select all songs -> right-click -> sync with handset.. DONE!! :p

this isnt working. made backup but after restore game data is default.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] simbadogg:

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiej79:
has anybody who is in canada on rogers figured out how to unlock the bootloader for this phone? or is there a rooted generic world version of 4.0.A.2.368?? ive tried everything and cant get fastboot working
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] senrik:
The trick that was needed in order for my system to use fast boot was to disconnect the phone from USB, turn off the phone, and then when powered off, select the menu button (the button to the right of the home button), and hold the button down while you plug in the USB cable. The light above the usb slot will turn blue.

once that is done, use the code that Sony/Ericsson provides, and use that with fastboot.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Both questions have been answered numerous times and your second question is a piss take!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiej79:
I've seen the rooted IMG of this firmware but has there been a ftf of it done for world generic? I'll try that trick and see if I get fastboot
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiej79:
tried unplugging it from usb powering it off and holding the menu button. my pc makes a noise telling me something is hooked up but the light on my phone turns green once the screen lights up with the sony ericsson title the screen goes off after thet but the light stays green.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Have a browse of the section you're most likely to find it, and have a browse of the namaste thread. ;-)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiej79:
still havent had any luck getting my bootloader unlocked. tried some stuff from the namaste thread de branded flashed the north american generic firmware did a ota update after rooting but it is only .145 and not the new .368 do you know if there is a rooted .365 ftf file? im pretty new to this and cant find alot of info for rogers phones
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] athris:
So far i know the only way to unlock rogers band xperia arc bootloader is using the setool. I am rogers xperia arc too and unlocked the bootloader already XD
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiej79:
thats awesome do you have a link on how to do this?

ive read somehwere but cant find it again if you use the custom hk firmware you can get the new .368 ota update i tired the generic north america one and only got up to .145
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] athris:
first of all, setool is not free software. If you want to know more about setool, you can google search "setool".

If you just want a root version of 4.0, i can suggest just flash a hk version 2.3.2, do gingerbreak, then OTA to 4.0.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiej79:
ill try the hk firmware then ota. is there a specific hk firmware? or just the generic 181 hk firmware?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombiej79:
flashed the generic .181 hk firmware used gingerbreak and did the ota update to .368 and now im one happy guy. not in a rush for the bootloader. thanks for the info
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadewolf:
I'm stumped on this one.

I loaded a stock image using nvflash (to clean out the gutters so to speak), pushed BeKit's CWM .8 to the device, then Cyanogen 7.1.0 RC1.

The odd thing is that even though each device started out with a unique Bluetooth MAC Address, they now all have the exact same one.

As far as I can narrow it down, it appears to be being set in the kernel options, but I have no idea how to go about changing them. In Linux it is easy as jumping into Grub and typing a few words, here I'm not even sure how to modify the kernel command in the boot loader.

what I get when I cat /proc/cmdline is this:

*NOTE* I'm using <at> as a stand-in for the symbol as the board won't let me use them as it sees it as an outside link.

mem=448M<at>0M nvmem=64M<at>448M vmalloc=192M video=tegrafb console=ttyS0,115200n8 usbcore.old_scheme_first=1 cpuid=200102 devicetype=1002 [COLOR="Red"]btmac=9c5ed6131a00[/COLOR] tegraboot=nand mtdparts=tegra_nand:16384K<at>12032K(misc),16384K<at>62208K(recovery),16384K<at>79104K(boot),204800K<at>96000K(system),222464K<at>301312K(cache),409

first sorry for being a noob on this things..

i got a wildfire A3333 with android 2.2.1 running on it..

my question is..i want to root my phone..its possible? what should i do first? do i need to check anything b4 starting to root it?

and again..sorry being a noob :'( please help me! :o
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
You have to get S-OFF using Revolutionary. Don't touch Unrevoked, because its not needed and will not work. You can refer the outline of the process here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1029318
[Wildfire General] Hanakie:
after i doing this S-off stuff, its means my phone is rooted and i can run livewallpaper?
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
No. You will have to install a ROM which supports it. (Which can only be done after getting S-OFF, so its unavoidable)

Just a word of caution - Live Wallpapers immensely slow down the Wildfire, except a few ones.
[Wildfire General] Hanakie:
except a few ones? didnt get what ur means buddy..
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
There are just a few I personally have tested which doesn't seem to slow down the phone as much as others.

- Starfield 2D

- Solar Wind

- Pixel Rain

- Nexus Like Live Wallpaper

There are probably more out there, but, with the above 4, slowdown is minimal, atleast for me.
[Wildfire General] Hanakie:
ok last question here..

what is the different between rooted and unrooted wildfire..also the advantage of doing this root things :S
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Advantages are potentially plenty. You can:

- Install Custom ROMs, including ones with Android 2.3.5

- Remove System Apps from ROMs you dont need

- Live Wallpaper Support

- Proper Apps2SD Support

- Many Root only apps like Titanium Backup (App Backup), SetCPU (Overclock CPU) etc.

In a nutshell, thats about it. There are quite a few more, but I'll keep my post short.

Obviously, none of the above things can be done without rooting your device.
[Wildfire General] Hanakie:
ok many2 thx to u @3xeno..

do u think this stuff easy to do for a novice like me? :P i really wanna do it..but afraid will broke my wildfire >.<
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
I would say yes. Everyone is a novice when they start off, so, don't worry about it.

Besides, I would say the process is pretty safe (and easy - Its literally 1 click. I remember the process when Symbian S60 V3 had to be hacked. It needed a digitally signed certificate from an authority!) as well. Haven't seen any brick reports yet. Further, everything is reversible, so you shouldn't have issues claiming warranty in the future if the need arises.
[Wildfire General] Hanakie:
Cyanogen Mod 7 <<-- what is this? i have read it somewhere.. :S
[Wildfire General] tin_95:
Cyanogenmod 7 is an 2.3.5. AOSP (android open source project) Rom, very fast and stable but it has no sense UI

Edit:It has some problems with GPS and Bluetooth file transfer but i think that can be resolved by flashing a new radio image
[Wildfire General] Hanakie:
so u means if i put this on my wildfire it will bring some problems? and do u know how to fix the problems?
[Wildfire General] tin_95:
Well I don't know, because when I flashed it i didn't notice any problems except for the Bluetooth. But It's not the same for every phone.

Anyways no major problems, and I recommend that you do a nandroid backup before you flash any Rom just in case something goes wrong.
