Rooted Toon running 4.19.10

Hi I'm a beginner and new to this forum and rooted my Toon (Toon1) friday, I have to say this was not easy to do but it works. I can logon with SSH now.
My Toon was running 4.19.10 so I still have to change a lot of files described under viewforum.php?f=100 Manuals/Tutorials
The problem now is that most of the files doesn't exist anymore or is a part of other files I think, for example :
/HCBv2/qml/apps/internetSettings/InternetSettingsApp.qml or qmf_project.xml or hcb_project.xml

So my suggestion is can I install the resources-qb2-<firmware version number 4.19.10>.zip and install the update-rooted.sh script from github.com/IgorYbema/update-rooted/blob ... -rooted.sh and run it? What happens when the script doesn't find the files?
I don't want to brick my Toon, then I think my wife is killing me :?
I attach a file with a find of all the files on my Toon.

Does any one has a suggestion or how to continue, I'm a little bit confused?

Thanks already.

You can install the resource files manually or just run the update-rooted script with -f parameter. -f will fix all the needed for you.

And indeed the rooting manual needs major maintenance. It is still written in the pre 4.16 area with no resource files present

First of all the Toon consist of two major compontents:
- the linux OS
- the QT (GUI) environment (everything in /qmf/qml, /HCBv2 and the /usr/bin/startqt file)

As long as you don't break the linux OS you can always recover the second part (QT). Breaking the linux OS is possible but that would mean changing/removing files which you would normally not touch. QT, if broken, is easily fixed by installing the proper resource files. If you might delete the resource file or install it wrong you would only see that the Toon screen will not start however SSH will still work. Nine out of ten issue's with a not working Toon is about the QT not starting properly.

And indeed, the update script with option -f will fix a lot of stuff for you (if it makes any sense).

Hi all after running the update script 3.33 "update-rooted.sh -f" everything is working fine now.
Thanks all.
