Possible to read/dump fw S40 BB5?

[skybooks]

I have a phone that has a modified FW with features that I want to emulate on other handsets.

Is there any software or box that can read and dump the whole FW off the handset?

Basically, I would like to download off the phone the core/image and PPM.

Yes it's possible
But if u want to write it
On other phone u must check
Root hash is same
And ask for correct tool for it

so what is the correct tool for this? Also, would 2 s40 phones with the same model number but different RM's have the same root hash?

Hi,

In most cases, Root hash is same. ATF is the only tool which reads Full Flash
via FBUS cable for RAP3G/S40/BB5 phones. Also, other BB5 models are supported
for Read Flash function. ATF Section: Advance-Box - GSM-Forum

Could you answer one more question?
Can I retrieve the Phonebook from the acquired Full Flash?
