Invisible Rom Dumper

This is a tool for rom dumping

this software dumps ur current rom onto the MMC and its quick..........it can be used for backup restore purposes.........

all you need is a SD card and this tool.

Setup
- rename 'grab_it_xx.exe' to 'autorun.exe'
- create folder '2577' on your (empty) SD/MMC/Mini-SD card
- copy 'autorun.exe' to this folder

That's it for the "setup" :o)

Usage
Now every time, when you insert this card into PPC it will grab the ROM image and save it into root of the card as 'dump.bin'.
It will show you a tiny red progress bar at the very bottom of the screen.
Once done, it will beep the default sound.
Message boxes are only shown in case of error.

IMPORTANT NOTE
YOU MUST NOT put it back into another device!!!
YOU MUST LOCK THE SD CARD FIRST!!!!!
or read the SD with card reader on your desktop PC.
Otherwise, you will rewrite the dump with your own ROM!!!!

This ROM dump file can be then further processed and converted to flashable formats.

it is a real spy tool :o))) i mean 007 kind of... :o)))))

Now there are few new versions.
They are for grabing different amount of ROM.

Please note, that you will need a card which is bigger than the ROM size.
32MB dump -> fits onto 64MB card
64MB dump -> fits onto 128MB card
128MB dump -> fits onto 256MB card

Really a great little proggie... I have been looking for this kind of program, I have one problem though:

When the dump is finished, I hear the "default" sound you mention, and then I wait a little extra before I remove the SD Card, but when I remove it, the proggie gives me the error. "Could not create file!" even though it has told me the dump is finished.... dunno what's causing the problem..

And another question.. is there a possibility to kind of explore the .BIN file after it have been dumped?


Thanks in advance, and cheers :partyman:

Please explain to me the usage of this proggie.
I am using WM2003SE, which is the OS already in ROM sustained from hard-reset.
Thanks.
