Wow! That is a cool idea!… (more…)

This is a long route to follow I feel .. But I’m on it anyway ..

Doing this with ROKRE6 ..

First better to find a way to flash the phone from Linux desktop. RSDLite is ok but it is Windoze only ..

Putiing the phone to MBM flash mode by power+photo and attaching to USB gives:
Sep 3 11:26:37 localhost kernel: usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
Sep 3 11:26:40 localhost kernel: usb 5-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

and no new entry under /dev

Checking http://moto4lin.sourceforge.net/wiki/FlashingEZX

Building:
– p2kmoto – ok
– exxflash Build problems:
a. make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g++/qmake.conf’, needed by `Makefile’. Stop.
the file is at /usr/lib/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g++/qmake.conf
b. /usr/bin/uic-qt4 does not exist
c. main.cpp:1:17: error: QtGui: No such file or directory
d. src/tools/moc: No such file or directory
e. *** No rule to make target `-DQT_NO_DEBUG’, needed by `moc_mainwindow.cpp’

There is some patching needed here .. So I did it (DIY): ezxflash_OEL5_XceptN.patch

then
/usr/lib/qt4/bin/qmake
make

./build does the others.

But unsbf does not work ok .. Going for SVN

   svn co http://svn.openezx.org/trunk/src/host/ezxflash/

The makefile patch is ok with Build 2349

   parseheader/parseheader test.sbf
–> gets you the out.txt
   unsbf/unsbf test.sbf

gets you the *.bin files

–> but this method is good with e780 firmwares.. No good for ROKRE6 .. Looking for other ways ..

Currently using desbf.exe to patch/parse sbf files .. and using manual mounts on linux .. Shall write more on this ..

Due to more than 10 (or so) missed events on my ROKR E6, I could not have the list of missed events since ..

Now there are “128 Missed events” …..!!!!! Looking for a way to clear them up..

The
problem is that to tell ROKR E6 to “Cancel” them all, one needs to have
the list of missed items by tapping on the “N Missed events” text. But
the list does not come up ..

This is with firmware:
R533_G_11.12.08P
BP: R533_G_11.12.08PB
PFIex: GSZMCAUT677ZH01B
DSP: 63343400
Technology: Quad Band GSM

I do not like to re-flash / or master reset solutions as I have done a lot job on this existing config ..

only gives some hope with 30p46p. Checking on that ..

Just
upgraded to R535_G_11.81.09P_R92_WM and not we are all safe .. There
does not seem to be a good way to cover this .. Since there had been a
bug with the old firmware..

Now I have my own firmware version and do not have this problem at all ..
