As I said in the other thread, very nice work. I wish I had one to test this out on.
Same question, what actual function does the app perform to make the ExtRom writable?

I think this would be the most likely place to post this... Just in case anyone is interested in what is on the ExtROM partition:
And the contents of Config.txt: Code:
LOCK:Enabled CPY1:\Extended_ROM\AddContact CPY2:\Windows\AddContact EXEC:\Windows\RUN_SPRINT_TSK.lnk EXEC:\Extended_ROM\AddContacts.exe CAB: \Extended_ROM\GetGL.CAB CAB: \Windows\AudibleAir_SprintPPC.CAB CAB: \Extended_ROM\GroveMobile_pulgIn.sa.CAB CAB: \Extended_ROM\MP_CVSDcpl_20070129.cab CAB: \Extended_ROM\DefaultRingtone.sa.CAB CAB: \Extended_ROM\AudioPara0330.sa.CAB CAB: \Windows\ondemand_6800_boot.arm.CAB CAB: \Extended_ROM\MoveLnk.sa.CAB EXEC:\Windows\ChgScutAttri.exe LOCK:Disabled RST: Reset I'll start digging through the existing CAB files and determine what each one does, specifically. |

So, after several hours, I still can't figure out why I can't unlock the ExtROM, even with the supplied cab. I can read the ExtROM, but I'm not able to make any changes. Apparently the exe doesn't do what it's advertised to do. I noticed that the 'MountAsROM=0' and 'secure=0' reg settings get reverted automatically after a soft reset, presumably by the OEM_FLASHDRV driver. I found a thread at xda-developers with a tool that patches that driver to unlock the ROM, but it did not work for the Titan. I actually could not find the original OEM_FLASHDRV.dll file anywhere. After running the patch, the file showed up in \Windows, but then the ExtROM was not visible anymore (even tried installing the certs that the author says are required, and still no joy).
Renaming the "patched" dll, followed by a soft reset, brought the Extended_ROM partition back, but it was still not writable. To the original author: What specifically is the unlock tool meant to do, and how does it do it? It's obviously not working, but if I knew what needs to be done, it would help get a little closer to figuring out what's going wrong. Is anyone able to get the unlock tool to work? |

ok, maybe its just me... but after unhiding the Extended_ROM I get an error in Pocket Outlook when trying to enable the "When available, use this storage card to store attachments" option. Looking at the Storage card listed it has 9.21MB free (Sprint...) any ideas on a work around? I'm already running without any Sprint customizations and currently don't "NEED" to have the Extended_ROM... on the upside... with the app removed everything returns to normal. Must be something in the search order for storage cards within outlook. E before S...
