Backup the 8390's Firmware
(I think that this can work with ANY Windows Mobile powered device, even Pocket PCs)

 

Follow this simple steps for backuping your firmware!

  1. Download the rom tools

  2. Unzip it in a folder

  3. Turn on your device and connect it in the cradle

  4. Make sure that activesync is running (wcescomm.exe in the task manager)

  5. Run sign.bat for sync deivce certificates with pc. (This operation can be done one time in the os life)

  6. Run backup.bat. (maybe edit it for setting a different name)

Operation is done! For flashing it again use farur02.exe

If you want to extract the ROM contents, use dump.bat (edit it depending on your necessities)
