[Q] wp7 emulator dump - how to? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! I'd ask/post my question under the
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1096111
or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1147161
but the 10-post rules in still in its power, so I think it's no point to whine about that?
In these two posts, the Football has provided some dumps of the emulators' images. While i was able to unpack mine with xipport/boooff, I completely dont know how to preserve/restore/rebuild the directory structure - such as it is seen in Football's dumps. Could you drop me a link or a bit of info where/how to do/find it?
I want to dump it, because I've noticed few strange behaviours in the SDK and I want to check whether it is a bug, or feature I dont understand (ildasm, you know the drill..). Football's latest 7661 dump was really useful, but I just want to recheck on mine and compare what has changed.
My current emu image:
/2D6168DD-3ACB-43bd-BCA7-4033C89E9745.rgu:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Versions]
"Label"="WM7_Main"
"ParentBranchBuild"="7712" <- different
"TimeStamp"="20110711-1451" <- month later than 7661
"Builder"="mojobld"
It seems newer that Football's. If you deem it useful, but I think I'll be able to upload it somewhere afterwards - but I can't give you my word for that, I have not yet checked if I/we are under NDA here. The company "likes" to get tied by them lately..
If you have any links/knowledge on how to fetch the actual binaries (ie. GAC_*.dll) from the device, _in a more reasonable way_, please let me know/point me there too.
@reasonable: the way I know about currently are:
- unpack from device-update package (I don't know how yet, not tried)
- download from running the device directly (I'm able to do it on per-file basis, quite legthy and boring, and required to knowing the exact file name. I've managed to fetch a few files from GAC, nothing more)

excuse me for just "bupming", but I'd really can't dig anything out on that

Orange Plugin - What goes where?

Just a clarification question...
I found the following files, packaged in a .cab, but don't think I need all of them and don't know where to put the files I do need.
Here's what I have:
4orangeh.dll
HomePage.xml
HomeScreen.dll
HomeScreen_menuF.bmh
HomeScreen_MenuS.bmh
orange.scheme.xml
OrangeHomescreen.home.xml
I'm thinking that the 4orangeh.dll is the only file I need and that it goes in the application data/home directory, and that the other files are associate with a homescreen this particular individual authored. Is that correct or no?
Thanks for the help!
ahhhh
NO.....nononono....thats wrong.
You got the units for ABAXIA (all the files above exept the 4Orangeh.dll)and 4OrangeH.
You may copy the files to /Application Data/Home and register the .dll manually with wm5regsvce.exe.
May not work stable, but you got this: (Link to another Thread by me about the 2 DIFFERENT OrangePlugins called Abaxia and 4OrangeH (4Orangeh includes 10 different Plugins)
ClickMeHard
The Top Image is Abaxia, the second Images are 4Orangeh.Abaxia is poooooor, 4OrangeH really Impressive
Nice arpy!
You wouldn't know where I can find some (English) documentation on how to use this plugin?
erm,no...sorry.Ive created a German Doc with all needed attributes for this Plugin, it was a hard trip and needs a lot of try-and-error-sessions to get nearly all informations about it.
Here is a Howto in German, it includes nearly all Attributes and Parameters needed for 4OrangeH.Not finished yet...there are some more undocumented Features, like FreeMemory,Messages,Ringtone...it is like an OWN HOMESCREEN-PROCESS, so it can Host more than one Plugin in one Line...an REALLY DAMN ****IN **** MISSING FEATURE in my lovely SmartPhone.
the file maybe helpful, if you always create Homescreens...
Thank you. I'll try and see how this comes through a translater.

Linux Port for HTC Vox

Hi!
Since last week, I've been working on an usable kernel for the HTC Vox. I guess you've already looked at this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368014&page=5
More or less, I have a working kernel. I've tested some images against the modified kernel, and both Gpe and Opie get to the welcome screen (without getting stucked). Nothing is really usable, as they're not even compiled for this specific platform (cannot get to compile opie for arm by myself... yet), but as a base, it's not bad at all.
As I've seen on my previous post, there's people interested on this (3300 views make me believe that), what I would want to know is, are there more developers interested on building a linux port for the Vox? Testers will be needed also, but later, when we get to something useful for testing
If you're interested, reply!
Cannot help u develop anything here, but would be a willing tester for it... thoroughly
I'd love to help, but I'm in the middle of moving to a new place and won't have internet most of the time next 2 weeks.
Do you have a Wiki or other place for collaberating? SourceForge perhaps?
I do have a wiki, but upload is no faster than around 80kB/s
In case you haven't seen it, you have a new build of the kernel on the other post, along with links and a little manual to start a graphic environment on the vox.
@barth666, @StefanHamminga
I've been thinking about it, and... I don't know what to do I mean, I think Sourceforge is the best place to dump it all, and it gives us a wiki too. On the other side, here is the xanadux wiki, and maybe it would be a good idea to let sourceforge host the files, and leave the wiki in here with other HTC phones... what do you think?
Oh! For GPIO dumping, the only thing I've seen working is the linwizard project's Haret_Omap.exe (in case you want to try to guess where the damned keys are )
PS: Anyone has an HTC Tornado? I'd love to know if the tornado kernel makes the leds and vibrator flash, I can't find where they are!

I have a tornado (and vox and wings), so tell me what to test
I know from the ml_iPod wiki (I am the admin) that SourceForge is really slow and the Php and Sql versions are old, in case you want to set up something like MediaWiki! You might want to try http://code.google.com/ , it has a built in Wiki and you can host files!
Just a suggestion
Keep up the good work
EDIT: I could even set one up, if you want, but I am not into coding at all!
Hi! Sorry for the delay, but I'm having lots of work this week and I've been unable to keep on with this...
@Walram: On the following days I'll try to build a kernel for you, wich should put all the lights on and makes the phone vibrate until you take the battery out Obviously just for testing, it shouldn't break anything, but I need to know if the originally-made-for-the-tornado vibrator and led drivers actually work on the tornado... Thanks!
@Frauhottelmann
Didn't know that google gave that service too! will look at it this weekend and post back when I have something done with this.. thanks for the feedback!

Hi!
Ok, here's what I want you to try. If you haven't downloaded it yet, download the Linux Test Image:
http://rapidshare.com/files/93938763/test.zip.html
Then, download the kernel for the tornado:
http://rapidshare.com/files/96145010/kernel_tornado_driver.tar.gz.html
Dump the contents of the first file to the memory card, and then overwrite the file "zImage", with the one from the second link. Run haret, and hit "Run".
It should, at least, boot. If it doesn't, tell me where it gets frozen (could be that you only se some dots on the screen, whatever appears, just tell me )
If it boots, don't stop looking at the leds (charge/bluetooth leds mainly), they should, at least, flash -theorically they should stay on all the time-. It also should vibrate, at least for a quarter of second
I just need to know what it actually does!
Thanks!
So what about a dev-page? Then you don't need to upload it to Rapidshare and you can see the progress better!
Hi frauhottelmann,
I'm going to tell you the truth. I think it would be better if it's you who admins a site for this project than if I do, for various reasons:
1. I started all this thing, but I'm no owner of anything, by now I just hacked four things to make this phone boot a kernel, but no more.
2. I've seen your work at the ml_ipod sourceforge page, and think it's usable, clean, and nice, and I think that's exactly what we would need (even if it's a little slow just as you stated in your previous post). I could make the graphics for the web (I'm quite decent at photoshop), but I have never built a wiki, or a project anywhere else, and I don't know a sh** about it, so that would be another big thing to learn, and for now, I gotta learn more about the linux kernel, and that itself it's huge.
3. I don't think I can handle work, classes, building patches, kernels and bootstrap images and administrate a site, it feels like too much for me
Conclussion? I think it's better to let people do what does better, and I'm quite sure you'll do it better than I, so if you want, it's all yours
PS: In any case, we will need a name for the project, any suggestions?
What I have heard from the ml_iPod developers is that upload to SF is not a nice process either. I still think Google code is better, although it's not as customizable as SF.net. But we could also set up a page on Googlepages (pages.google.com) and then point to the Google code site with the Wiki and downloads!
I can offer my technical know-how (SPL, GPIOs, etc.)
Since I have little time you should ask me precise questions for which I can try to find the answers.
Sorry for the delay...

So we can start using google code, and stick with it if it goes well. We can always change the hosting if something goes wrong! About the wiki, the easiest thing is start with google code too, and simply link the xda wiki to it...
i can't code, but i can keep you company maybe
i am here if help is nedeed
But what name do we want to use?
Linux for Vox?
LinVox !
how does that sound ?

Hooked on Vonix!
vonix sounds ok
can also try "Mobile TUX"
wow
this is an incredible news ! linux on the Vox !
I'd love to flash mine with a movibuntu distro =)
How do you guys feel about splitting the project up in several subprojects?
Like:
Kernel and driver work: TI OMAP HTC Vox board patch and perhaps drivers
Base system: minimal rootfs and toolkit to utilize all Vox functionality
Usability: GUI and (for instance) Android support
This would also enable us to share the base system & usability work with other 'linux on smartphone' and embedded projects.
I do have a suggestion for the base system:
www.emdebian.org
Very up to date build toolchain for arm (GCC 4.x toolchains) and you can have apt support on the base rom. This would allow access to a huge amount of packages that can be used with relatively little effort. Others I've checked out are the new mobile ubuntu (system requirements way to high), MontaVista (severe lack of proper documentation to get up to speed quickly), uClinux (uses ulibc instead of the faster full fledged one, in my opinion we'd better trade some storage for more speed) and some others I can't remember now...
PS. I've got internet at my new place and I've recovered my bricked wizard from the 'spare electronics bin', so finally I can spend some more time on this

GUIDE: In the beginning... There was ROOT

So you’ve got a nice, shiny, new G1 and you’ve been hearing about all the amazing things you can do with it but you “MUST HAVE ROOT”. As far as you know, you’re not a plant (although you may feel as smart as one at this point) and beyond that, you have no clue what any of the terms or concepts mean in context.
Well, I’m bored so I’m going to try and clear some things up.
There are a lot of threads that cover each of these things but I’m going to try and put as many basics into one post as possible. Hopefully it can be a perfect start for n00bs and good reference in lieu of search for others. Please feel free to correct any semantic (or blatant) mistakes I make.
I’ll keep the glossary here and update terms as I add to this post:
Android OS - Like Windows Mobile but based on Linux, using a Java based front end.
Linux - Open Source operating system used instead of Windows XP/Vista, Mac OSX etc... it's free (as in beer).
Open Source (From Wiki) – Free and open source software, also F/OSS, FOSS, or FLOSS (free/libre/open source software) is software which is liberally licensed to grant the right of users to study, change, and improve its design through the availability of its source code.
Root (as in access)- root is like the administrator account on a windows machine (also referred to as su, or superuser). It allows you to have complete access to the underlying OS of a linux or *nix based machine. For the G1, it allows for the use of themes, native backup functionality, manually selecting which apps can utilize root access, auto-rotate screen, multi-touch in browser, moving applications/caches to the sd card etc...
Root (as in location)- the 'root' of a folder or drive is the top most area of that location. In windows, C:\ is the 'root' of your hard drive. The 'root' of your SD card just means you haven't moved into any subfolders.
Shell – (also heard as terminal, bash, command line) This is a loose definition, but it’s basically a command line to run specific actions against the OS.
Bootloader – the SPL and IPL of a flash based device. See jashu’s description here.
SPL (Secondary Program Loader) - You get to the SPL by holding the camera button while powering on your phone. This is where you flash NBH images. See bootloader above.
Recovery Mode - Holding the 'Home' key while while powering on the G1 will take you into Recovery Mode. From here you can perform a NANDroid backup, wipe your phone, access a command line and of course, flash your phone with an update.zip file.
RC## (or release candidate) – In context to the G1, it is an official release of Android from T-Mobile meant specifically for the G1 (not ADP).
ADP (Android Developer Phone) – A Google specific (or carrier non-specific) version of the G1/Dream that has root access by default and is meant for developers writing apps for the G1, or Android in general.
ADP vs. RC## - Neither RC’s or ADP versions are tied to their respective hardware. With the right bootloader, you can flash an ADP image to a G1 or an RC image to an ADP.
JFV1.## - Is a specific Version of a JesusFreke ROM. JesusFreke is a developer on this website that has graciously spent his time to modify the G1 OS to allow us to have root access to our phones. This gives us the ability to explore and modify our phones via a command line.
Cupcake – a development branch of the Android OS that contains many improvements that was merged into the master build of Android and is currently being released to new phones as Android 1.5.
Nandroid – a utility, accessible through Recovery Mode, that allows you to backup your phone and restore to the exact condition at backup.
Apps2SD – Applications moved to your SD card instead of internal memory. Some people like the extra room, some people don’t want to hassle with the partitioning.
Partition – just like the partitions that separate cubicles in an office, a partition separates parts of a drive.
File system – there are many. It’s basically a specific way of organizing data on a partition. FAT(32) is generally windows, ext2 is generally linux. This is not a hard and fast rule, just most common in context with what you’ll see here.
Scripts – scripts are text files that contain a list of commands to perform. Instead of typing each command out multiple times, a script can be run that will initiate all steps listed in the script.
Android SDK (System Developer’s Kit) – This includes all tools (sans fastboot) that a developer needs to create applications for the G1. It also has tools for interacting with the phone via a command line (ADB).
ADB - is a part of the SDK that allows you to run commands against the G1 in lieu of using the terminal on the phone itself.
Fastboot - is a tool used to flash system images (.img files) to the G1 from a command line on your pc. IMG files are created when you do NANDroid backups and official images can be downloaded from HTC as well. To get to fastboot mode on your phone, hold the back button while powering on.
When T-Mobile first released the G1, they left a bug in the Android OS that allowed anything typed on the keyboard to be passed on to a root shell running in the background. This really was a major flaw and needed to be patched. Unfortunately, when they patched it, they really patched it. RC29 was the last version that still had root. With all versions RC30 on, it was removed. It completely denied us any hope at modding our “open-source” phone.
Somehow, the base image for RC29 (dreaimg.nbh) was leaked and some enterprising developers were able get access to the bootloader and return an updated G1 (RC30+) to RC29 and use this to regain root.
Somewhere along this road, Google released the ADP (Android Developer Phone), which has root enabled and uses a specific SPL (EngineeringSPL) that was the base for the modified HardSPL that most of us use now. Nandroid was included to allow us to back up our phones and shortly after, JesusFreke modified RC30 to keep root and still provide the fixes and improvements that came with it.
I’m not sure where it all started, but eventually, LucidREM released a modified version of JesusFreke’s ROM. This made moving applications to SD painless and freed up system storage and now we can have 32 flashlights and 62 tip calculators installed all at once.
Apps2sd has been the bane of many peoples existence. It requires you to partition your SD card in to separate file systems (FAT32 to remain compatible with windows computers as a mass storage device and ext2 to maintain compatibility with the underlying linux OS of the G1). It also requires you to move your apps to the SD card and then create symbolic links (similar to a windows shortcut) from the internal location pointing to the SD card. Lots can go wrong in this process and that’s why LucidREM, MartinFick, MarcusMaximus04 and others have created tools to help simplify the process.
Now of course, to achieve any of the things you want to do with the G1, you have to interact with it. There are at least 2 main ways to do this. Some prefer to do everything from the phone itself using a terminal, while some prefer to use their PC with the phone connected via USB. Others avoid both of these, as best they can, and use other peoples apps or scripts anywhere they can get away with it. This is why you may find many different explanations of the same goal.
In order to interact with your phone from a pc, you need the Android SDK, which includes ADB. ADB is basically a linux shell that communicates with the G1. It is easier to copy and paste from threads and insert commands without worrying about making typos. It also requires it’s own bit of hoops to jump through (unless you use a mac or linux ;-)) and sometimes scares people away. It is highly recommended if you plan on hacking at your phone with any regularity.
Of course, there are some sadists (I once was one) that like to type line after line of code on a tiny keyboard and use the terminal directly from the phone. This is fun and it makes you feel 1337, but it also leaves a lot of room for error. Remember, you are a root user now, and any mistake you make can be potentially huge.
Well, that’s all for now folks. Please feel free to add, subtract, reorganize, correct anything I’ve said, in the comments. Also, I’ve tried to add links to any relevant threads and sources that I used in making this… this, whatever you wanna call it.
Thanks to everyone in this community for doing what you do. We are all geeks and enjoy doing this stuff. It's good to have so many talented people taking an interest in Android and the G1 in general. It is open source communites that keep technology interesting and exciting.
Thanks to Haykuro, TheDudeofLife, all the theme devs, and all the big players that I didn't reference in this post. Oh, and SolemWishing for the Timeline! It helped, thanks!
Reserved for future posting
Awesome post for nuubs. This should be permanently stickied!
Very cool. a couple terms you should add:
Fastboot
SPL
Recovery mode
(including what key strokes you need to hit to get into spl and recov. modes)
Thanks for the feedback!
I added SPL and Recovery... let me get my facts straight on fastboot and I'll add that tomorrow.
I don't know if it is the right place for it, but there seem to have been lots of question about "radio" or more specifically "radio update".
I feel smarter already.
I particularly found the file system explanation useful, i put it together that fat32 and the other were the two partitions but didnt realize which was for cpu. Not ready to attempt but definitely closer (although Im not even sure if I want to partition i have no need for all that space at this point) It doesnt affect performance does it?
Agreed. Good stuff. Definitely noob required reading material.
Yes, indeed a very nice guide for the beginners. Hell we ALL started that way...i remember when I first got this phone ~6 months ago (no root), and there was almost nothing about it, no support, no add-ons, no hacks, nothing. It was boring, and for me I was coming from a motorola (motomodders?), so going to something that was far superior but didnt have community support made me almost cry.
Though look now, 3 months later the market was filling up and being abundent of new stuff to play with (I didnt even try rooting for a while, until it became a lot more well-known [fixes and the likes], and themes became a necessity because they started to get really good), and now 6 months later people are hacking away figuring out soo much stuff about it. Amazing work everyone, seriously.
Something good: It all starts at the roots .
Well, I added info on fastboot and exceeded my 10000 character limit. Now I understand why so many people reserve the second post. lol...
I'll make some changes so I can add info about the radio, however the link to fastboot explains the radio fairly well.
Thanks for the feedback everybody, I hope this helps some people out.

It was a really nice n00b guide, though ive done some WiMo flashing so some of the terms sounded familliar i certanly learned a thing or two
I would say it should be stickied and put on the wiki - oh and perhaps list it in alphabetic order, it would make it more usefull as a "I dont understand this term so ill just look it up"-thread...
Perhaps you can get a mod to give you post #2 & #3

I'm glad it helped. As far as performance issues, I've had none. In fact, when I was skating along with 12-19MB of free space, my phone would crall and cause me all sorts of grief. Since I've moved the apps and dalvik-cache, it's been very responsive and reliable. That being said, get a GOOD sd card. I see a lot of people having problems using cheap or < class4 sd cards.

can you add busybox
in the nandroid instructions it requires busybox but I didnt see an explanation for what busybox is. Thanks and this thread has already been very helpful for me
speaking of stickying this....
who is in charge of stickies? A lot of stickable topics aren't stickied and a lot of topics that should be unstickied are still stuck...

Hey sorry for the late reply... Been pretty busy since Friday.
I'll try and add this to the first post shortly. I may have to remove some of the history lesson if I can't get a mod to give me the second/third post.
BusyBox - This is a single executable utility that contains many common Linux commands, instead of having an individual executable for each command. As far as I know this is built into all of the JF releases, as well as Dude's. It is also usable in the JF recovery console by hitting alt-x. To use busybox, just type "busybox" in front of the command you want to use (i.e. #busybox ls -L --to get a list of your directory).

If you figure this out, let me know. I haven't tried to PM a mod or anything but I'd still be curious to know what the magic requirements are.
This will definitely help a lot of newcomers. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Way to get stickied! Now I can stop copying pasting updates worrying I might not be able to find the post...

Wouldn't "Unix utilities" be more correct than "Linux commands"?
And saying Android is "like windows mobile" is blasphemy! You can't compare Unix to Micro$oft Windoze (Yes, that's a very sophisticated and mature way to express my hatred of the OS )! >:|
Anyway, it's good that you wrote this, theres probably a lot around here not having a clue about how things work in the world of unix

[Q] Android JNI problem. Bad build tools?

Hello, XDA. This is my first post.
Before I start out looking like I'm helpless, and keeping with the mindset that I don't expect something for nothing, I've spent the time to write up newbie-friendly guides:
(edit: Apparently, I have to make eight posts before I can post external links) I will probably accumulate eight posts in this thread, and will edit this at that point.)
Adding OpenVPN and liblzo to the AOSP source tree and compiling a kernel to support it. Includes instructions for patching OpenSSL1.0.0a to enable engine support.
Wrangling with USB permissions
Making a custom boot animation from an animated gif
If it would be better to have the content located on the forum somewhere, tell me where it ought to go.
My problem:
I am trying to roll my own ROM from AOSP (Gingerbread 2.3.4). I have been successfully building images and even kernels for the Nexus S for several weeks now. Recently, I broke something.
I've beat my head against this for three days now. I think I read the entire internet before posting here. I think there is a problem with my build tools, but I don't know where I should be looking for it, or how to test it. The problem is not in the AOSP source tree. I know this because I checked out a clean copy of it, followed Google's instructions, and I get the same result. I get the same result in both the emulator, and on the Nexus S.
When I launch the browser, this is the output from logcat:
(edit: Wow... the parser that tells me I can't post URLs is so aggressive, that I can't paste my logcat output either... I have base64 encoded it instead.)

At first, I thought maybe it was some setting specific to the browser. But then I tried another application that also calls native libraries (CSIPSimple). Whenever CSIP tries to load native libraries, I see something like this:

Are there any veteran android devs that can point me in the correct general direction? I don't need to have my hand held, but having never written any app more complex than HelloWorld, I'm not sure where to begin debugging.
edit: As long as I'm thwarting the parser with Base64, here are the external links I am not supposed to be able to post. I hope it helps someone. Figuring all that out was a lot of work.

[QPST 2.7 build 402]

Mods please move this post if in the wrong place. OK, I couldn't find it ANYWHERE on XDA but, I did find it by doing extensive baidu (China's Equivalent of Google Search engine) searches and translations. So I give to you all QPST 2.7 build 402. I have the newest and latest QXDM and QCAT also. They were uploaded to the Chinese site on February 13, 2013. QXDM requires activation so I wont post it. I will post QCAT if anyone requests it though, as it does not require activation and neither does this version of QPST. I have seen numerous posts over the net where people wanted QPST 2.7 build 385 but this one surpasses that version. Annoyingly enough though, I still cant write settings to my girlfriends LGL55CV3 Straight Talk android phone with it . So if anyone here can help me out on this, please feel free to do so. So enjoy and hit thanks if I've helped you out.:good: http://www.mediafire.com/?yya85byog8kqtxn

No. It says that it belongs to an unvalidated account. I know that 418 is now out too if anyone might have this one.

I did some checking and a few people DID have issues with this. Thank you for bringing it to my attention...
If you install this via "setup.exe" it will put a backdoor on your system. It lives at "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Qualcomm". It will also add itself to the "HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Run" key in the registry. There is no virus in the MSI file.
You should be able to detect it, remove it and use build 422. Again, I am using it without issue.

Hello, fellow QPST users.
QPST 2.7 Build 4.2.2 is a fake version with keylogger.
Some a$$hole downloaded latest public QPST build (4.0.2) and decompiled MSI installer package, then edited all "4.0.2" to "4.2.2", added "fake changelog", added keylogger (qualcomm.exe), then repackaged and spread around web!
Everyone who downloaded QPST build "4.2.2" should change all his passwords.
More info about malware from fake 4.2.2 build (QPST.2.7.422.msi)
MSI package (QPST.2.7.422.msi) was embedded/tampered with qualcomm.exe which is a .NET based malware that logs your keystrokes and sends it to attacker's server.
How to delete the actual malware from your system?
Look at the startup from msconfig or CCleaner, there should be a file called qualcomm.exe thats set to start everytime system starts. Delete both registry and file.
If you wanted to see what data thief was stolen from you. Just open the .dc file (in "dclogs" folder) with Notepad and see for yourself.
In XP, dc file is located here!
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\dclogs
there should be a file called "201X-XX-XX-X.dc
if you open that DC files with Notepad, you'll see all your keystrokes.

Keylogger sends the logs from keylogger to "qpst.hopto.me"
So please report about this incident where and when you encounter QPST 4.2.2 somewhere (forums, posts, sharing-sites, etc)
Copy my whole post and paste it where you see 4.2.2 mentioned.
Bonus: Fake Changelog
If you've installed this 422 build, then open the Readme.txt in C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\QPST\Documents
Scroll down and see the "6/12/13 QPST 2.7.422 changelog"
6/12/13 QPST 2.7.422
1) EFS Hello commands will not be sent unless the device is in a compatible mode. Sending this command when the
device is in download mode can cause a "server busy" message for a few seconds because of command retries.
2) Support for the Sahara device protocol (see 80-N1008-1 or equivalent) is now built in to the QPST server process.
This protocol is only supported by USB Serial ports, not TCP/IP connections. In QPST Configuration a device in
this mode will display as "Q/QCP-XXX (Sahara Download)". This mode can only be detected (1) when the QPST server
process starts or a COM port in this mode added to QPST, or (2) when a device enters Sahara mode on a port assigned
to QPST. This is because the device only sends its Hello message once, as soon as the COM port is opened.

Changelog above is actually cloned from QPST 2.7.394 Just scroll down and see Build 2.7.394 changelog. Its same!
So forget about Build 422. It doesn't exist.
Use QPST 2.7 Build 402. It's the latest public build
Sorry about my english

Okey, someone (HuaweiDevices.ru) leaked QPST v2.7.411 to the public. I've installed it myself and confirmed that its legit build.
Here is original link of the leak..
Here is my link.
http://d-h.st/qAy
Thread cleaned, potentially unsafe file and posts are gone. All members are to be reminded that whenever you flash anything, regardless of what it is, you take chances.
Thanks for the report, and thanks for not being disrespectful regarding the matter.
Now, back to development.
Thanks for your sharing this.

Link works. Thank you.
Hello guys, i have a LG G2 with 3g issue , it works just in 2g, somebody can upload his QCN file so i try to replace mine with it? Thank you so much
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WARNING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!! TROJAN AGAIN !!!
Some time ago in Feb 2014 man named anycallmongolia posted a link to QPST 2.7 build 411
Link points to the site HuaweiDevices.ru
h_t_t_p_://_huaweidevices._ru/ROMS/QPST_2.7.411.rar
Later I'd personally downloaded this version from this topic a few times in 2014 and this was normal non fake QPST which i'd installed on a few PC's. (Can't remember particular link now). Today I would like to install QPST to a new NB PC, so assumed this topic as the best source. Being a recovery/data structures expert I always inspect code (mostly by viewing in text/hex). As most of members I've very high trust level to xda (certainly it's much higher then one related to the "famous and respectable" corps like Google/MS/Apple/etc, who aren't on my side, I'm sure).
I've installed QPST got from this topic a few times, so I'd almost pressed Enter (I use FAR most of time and advice you to do the same) over the DL'd file "qpst 2 7 411.exe".... What??? - EXE??? And it's just about 500Kb long... But QPST installer occupies about 16Mb.
I've explored body - I's typical malware with slightly "encoded" (to prevent direct reading) data inside. QXDM offered on the neighbor page is the same malware of the same size.
If you'll try to dl QPST from above link you'll got 404 error in the center of normal html page with site menu etc... What normal man would think in this case? He'll think page/product have moved (e.g. due to overload protection) and what he'll do next? He'll try to find where page have moved and... will got link in menu just at the bottom of 404 page. It's just trivial (but very good working!) "social engineering" - publish real app in trusted place and when it will pass checks replace it with malware. (Or may be domain was sold to the criminals as it often occures in Russia for a few latest years). Even if you will check DL url in the status bar it will show link to the .RAR archive, but ASAY click the link it will be redirected to .exe!
PLEASE PUBLISH BIG WARNING on TOPIC START and remove links to HUAWEIDEVICES.RU!!!
Furthermore. Situation is much worse because huaweidevices shows 1ST position in search request "QPST 2.7.411" by Yandex.ru (#1 search engine in Russia) and 2ND position in Google results with the same request!!! It's VERY DANGEROUS situation! Thousands if not millions of peoples are at risk of infection.
I'm going to write abuses to Google and Yandex NOW!
Please spread info on such a new attack manner/technique around your friends, collegues and internet.!
Always check what you run!!!
QPST 2.7 build 425 (The REAL Thing!)
It is so irritating to see all of the jerks who are trying to spread viruses and malware nowadays.
Here is the REAL build 425:

Very very very BIG Thank you!!!
That's really new one and it contains new very promising QFIL util. Didn't explored much yet!
God bless on you man!
BTW does anybody know how to descramble (decrypt)/scramble (encrypt) back EFS/NVRAM partitions (in most cases modemst*). I'd like to be able to patch/change every byte in EFS (not just locks etc bull****, my phones are always free of any contracts). Full modem FW reversing seems too difficult to me (i'm 'not so strong' in ARM assembly and there is too much code in modem FW). I'm sure for a such long period (over decade) of EFS life there should be methods around to manipulate it independently of mfr/commercial products, but I can't find them for a long time. Trust me, it's fully idiotic situation I'm (you're) not able to do with my (yours) computer (PDA is computer, not the "phone") all I want to do being "restricted" to access only data some f...n mfr "allowed" me to access. It's my device, I'd paid for it and I will decide what me to do with it.
Furthermore, modern public licenses don't allow to hide parts of object (device) code, where GNU/GPL code is the main part. Is anybody here who think that Linux/Unix value in ALL there f...n "modern" Android devices less than 90%? Most router mfrs have already forced by requirements GNU/GPL to publish full compilable code of their firmware. I shouldn't have clue what all they want to hide related to their "commercial" and manipulating interests. Using 30years of thousands people's free labor in their commercial products , they're obligated to publish full sources and should DO IT.
Apple is today wealthiest corp on this planet, but If you'll look into the Apple's internals you'll find tons of MODERN Linux code (protected by modern GNU/GPL) simply stolen from open source depositories, then adopted to MacOS/iOS then closed and sold as commercial product . Is it fair game?

BTW does anybody know how to descramble (decrypt)/scramble (encrypt) back EFS/NVRAM partitions (in most cases modemst*). I'd like to be able to patch/change every byte in EFS (not just locks etc ...................

I use EFS Pro for BackUp and Restore.... Sadly its windows only, but works great with VirtualBox on Linux Mint Cinnamon/MATE 17.1 x64.

I hear you about Apple, used to be a hardcore fan, when they were nearly bankrupt. I still swear by OS X, but not the iTard line of devices. I tell my nieces and nephews to get an Android cause they are not ignorant! lol There should be more of an effort to make people understand that Apple is using allot of *BSD (Linux) source. The GUI is closed, but some of the other source is available in the dev program site they host.

Thank you! Certainly I know this good product. It can manipulate NVRAM through COM-port, just the way QPST does it communicating w/modem FW. Is has many advanced options but seems not to be reliable enough (too many OEM customizations around, it's difficult to reverse all) As you stated it can also backup some partitions (like EFS). but you can do this yourself just by simple ADB/Unix shell commands (e.g. "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p?? of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p??.img")
You can write simple scripts and perform such backups directly from device (to SD). Furthermore, you can customize CWM/TWRP for your device to perform such backups from recovery.
To do it you should know which partition numbers to backup/restore (to backup/restore what data you want).
There are methods/commands available to get needed info to build full device partition map (e.g. some devices contains "folders" named "by-names" deeper in /dev/block/... (where partitions are named), but in some cases (e.g. some 2013 MSM7227 based Samsung phones like GT-S756x) there is no names associated with particular proprietary partitions in the device, (at all) so the only way to find what data reside there is to backup and look (hex) with your own "experienced" eyes what these data seems to be (or search what others found on the theme). EFSPro "from the box" also knows only a few device's partition maps so, in most cases you should build configuration for your device manually with full knowledge of it.
There is no problem to locate and backup encrypted modem data partitions (modemst*/efs/etc...) if your device is rooted. Moreover, if your device has standard Qualcomm bootloader (not OEM's cut) you can switch device to the standard Qualcom DM (download mode) when all your eMMC contents will be exposed to USB bus as mass storage device (just like UFD or SDCard) and you can backup/restore whole drive contents or particular partitions just like PC's own partitions (try some "chnese" stuff (made of quality parts) instead of "branded" ones and you'll see superiority of the "open world".
But main question is how to decrypt modem data to explore and change them as I want at any time. Mfrs (i.e. Qualcomm and OEMs hide serials, locks etc BS there, but there is a lot of other interesting stuff related to modem configuration which is also closed and encrypted. This drives me wild because it's my device and my serials/locks and other stuff too, so it's my option to do with is what I want and no one else. I'm definitely know and sure modem FW/config and even mask ROM (which we most probably never will be able to explore) contains many hidden features that may lead to remotely force device to collect info about user and perform actions without his knowledge and consent. I have no matter what all these sec... services planned to do with all these exploits they forced OEMs/chipmakers to implement., but (sic!) they allowed information about these exploits to leak wild! So some "generic" engineers who simply have job and low level access to cellular provider's equipment (which able to broadcast custom service packets) to make "what they want with user's phones (e.g. switch it on or request GPS data) just "for fun". F them all, but most idiotic is fact that being an 25y experienced "lowest level" service engineer I can't get access and control over my own devices (i.e. computers). It's incorrect. It would be difficult but we should pay more attention to explore internals and get clue what goes on.

I've personally explored OSX files and partitions and seen much modern Linux code inside. They even don't hide "copyrights". Nobody will explore anyway and nobody cares. Old 80x-90x versions of public licenses allowed to do "anything" with free open sources (including to make changes, then close sources and sell product). After some smartasses like Apple used this hole to sell free labor of thousands of peoples, public license had changed. Modern licenses allows you to sell derived product, but obligate you to open sources (with same license) so anyone else can use them to and sell too. You can't close your part of sources if free code is most valuable part of your product. E.g. router mfr can't close part his own sources to make firmware sources "uncompilable" because Linux definitely is most valuable part of router FW. This warrant later development of free open source programs and free community n whole. Apple stated that they used only old 80x code in their OS'es and then developed it separately and thus they are not obligated to open sources to everyone. They would be right unless they didn''t used a lot of modern code protected by modern public license's requirements. I didn't explored deeply. May be they publish all derived code for free. Today we can't say accurately if some modern Linux components they adopt for Mac/iOS are most valuable part of their systems or not. We should explore all the code to make decision. but anyway it's not fair to use a lot of thousand's people's free labor just to make money. Google's position here is not ideal but much more fair. They publish most of sources and support open source community. They don't try to make system "unbreakable" and they don't force you to use their accounts too much. I've NO Google "phone" account AT ALL. I've no need in any "markets", "clouds" ect BS., which lead absolutely no problem to me to effectively use Android devices. There are lots of free APK's around
It practice, I have 2-3 old iPhones just for experiments. Yes we have Jailbreaks and some other stuff, but even if you break and get access to your device it's very uncomfortable to work with it at low level. On my sight just one ADB interface costs more then all "jingles and bells" of iOS's GUI. All these "tethered-untethered", "unbreakable" bootloaders in Mask ROM, lack of normal tools to explore and manage data on any level, total control and extraction of my data by mfr via strongly encrypted obfuscated protocols and hidden services make these devices useless for me in practice.
Windows Phone is even far more closed OS then iOS. You have no control over your data at all. You can't do a thing with WP device unless you sign up with MS account. You can't get access to your own data (except MM files) unless you sync it with MS cloud, i.e. you will be forced to send all your private data to MS and MS will decide whether to give piece of it back to you or not. Matrix in action. I've absolutely no clue what thought MS bosses when they decided to close ALL in OS that have had less than 1% of market. Their 1st goal was to attract developers to write apps for their OS and there was no better way to kick them than "close All". There is no matter does it perform GUI actions good or not when devs and users have no effective way to collect and use "useful" results of device's work.
