How to copy .\Windows\coredll.dll from Smartphone to PC?
|
|
|
| Hi all,
I try to copy .\Windows\coredll.dll from my SPV E200 Smartphone to my PC,
but it said "can not find the file" or "Access Denied".
Anyone can tell me how can I do?
Many thanks.
Jim

| You can't since the file is in ROM on the device. But why would you want to
do this anyway, since the file is compiled for the ARM processor you won't
be able to use it on the desktop. If you explain what you want to do with
the file we can probably offer some alternative solutions...

| While this may not be terribly useful for coredll.dll, it would be really
nice to peer into some of the system dll's to see what they're doing. For
me, BTAGSVC.DLL comes to mind as an file I'd like to look inside and see
what, if anything, it's doing anything to route audio to a bluetooth device,
e.g. a headset.
I imagine there are ways to download the ROM from the phone and extract
files from it. In fact, I have seen a number of references to this kind of
stuff but I haven't figured out how to make any of it work.

| Hi Peter, thank you very much for your reply.
I'm programming a DLL, but it needs to call a function which should be
inside "Coredll.dll". I just want to make sure which function my DLL called.
But when I use "Dependency" to check my DLL imported function, I found the
column of "Function" always shows "N/A". So I think maybe it's caused by
there is not exist the file "Coredll.dll" in my PC. So I'd like to copy it
from my smartphone and do some research job. But when I try to copy the file
from smartphone to pc, it says:"Access Denied".
Thank you very much for your help!
regards,
Jim

| The executables in ROM are fixed up and unpacked so they can be executed in
place, so it's unlikely they will be useful for the type of analysis you
want to do.

| Yes, I've already given up on the thought of doing anything useful with a
SmartPhone except making phone calls and taking blurry low-contrast pictures
(which I realize has nothing to do with SmartPhone, per se, but is still one
of the literally dozens of deficiencies with my so-called SmartPhone.)
Please forgive the sarcastic tone but trying to work with this phone has
been a trial, to put it mildly. (Kind of like calling hell a tad
uncomfortable.)

P.S. I didn't expect there was any useful way to do what I mentioned, just
observed that it would have been nice (not to mention the dreaded U-word,
useful) to be able to.

You can get read access to it using CreateFile(). Personlly I have a
program which dumps all exports in a DLL, so I use that for researching
DLL's.
At least I think you can get read access, hmmm, anyways that worked when
I was looking into another DLL. I find Activesync doesn't try that hard
to get access to files (perhaps it's trying to get write access when it
does a copy).
riki
main(){printf("%d != %d, why?", sizeof('"')["'"],(sizeof('"'))["]\"\0["]);}

| Thanks for your reply. I call like this in the .NET CF: new
FileStream("\\Windows\\Coredll.dll",FileMode.Open), but it always
says:"UnauthronizedException". Could you give me a demo code? Many thanks.
