Functions

DUMP Dumps the selected device/partition to "/ndp/%s.img" file in the selected base partition (LOC:).
RESTORE Flashes the selected device/partition using a image found in "/ndp_f/%s.img" in the selected base partition (LOC:).
Enable RW access to all partitions Remounts all partitions/devices as RW.
Perform a factory backup Tool used to quickly dump factory os's files. It dumps inactive os0, inactive slb2 and idstorage to "/ndp/%s.img" file in the selected base partition (LOC:).
Check if the device exists Opens a dialog where you can enter the device/partition's BLK name (i.e: mcd-lp-act-entire), and NDP will check if it exists, and return the result.
Dump one block Opens a dialog where you can enter the device/partition's BLK name (i.e: mcd-lp-act-entire), and NDP will check if the device exists, if yes - it will dump one block (0x200) to "/ndp/%s.x" file in the selected base partition (LOC:).
Dump MBR Opens a dialog where you can enter the device/partition's BLK name (i.e: mcd-lp-act-entire), and NDP will check if the device exists, if yes - it will dump 0x40000 to "/ndp/%s.x" file in the selected base partition (LOC:).
Dump device (MASTER/FAT16/EXFAT) Opens a dialog where you can enter the device/partition's BLK name (i.e: mcd-lp-act-entire), and NDP will check if the device exists, if yes - it will dump the device to "/ndp/%s.x" file in the selected base partition (LOC:). Size will be taken from the device's MBR/PBR.
Dump device (custom size) Allows you to set the size of dumped device manually, then (after pressing START) it opens a dialog where you can enter the device/partition's BLK name (i.e: mcd-lp-act-entire), and NDP will check if the device exists, if yes - it will dump the device to "/ndp/%s.x" file in the selected base partition (LOC:). You can control the size menu with combination keys.
Clone device (INT/GCD/MCD/USB) Allows you to set the cloned device(s) manually, then (after pressing START), it clones the INPUT device to the OUTPUT device. You can control target devices with combination keys.
Bruteforce device names Runs a script which generates all possible partition blk names, and checks if they exists. The existing devices names are logged to "/ndp/devices.log" file in the selected base partition (LOC:).
