Jay's reference base for modding Motorola phones

Your welcome Jay, so when you get your razr I expect to hear about some of the mods you have performed

 

If you are using a non-cingular flex on a Razr and cannot get AIM to work, please follow these instructions. Download the attached file, unzip, and copy these files to the /a/wvim folder on your phone (I deleted the original files in my wvim folder first that had the same names) and it should then work. These files are from the Cingular flex I found that on another forum and tried it and it worked great :biggrin:

 

Here is another file that lets you explore your phone using a gui interface. HOWEVER BE WARNED THAT IT IS NOT FOR THE UNINFORMED AS IT WILL SHOW YOU ALL FILES INCLUDING IMPORTANT SYSTEM FILES AND IF YOU ARE NOT CAREFUL YOU COULD DELETE NECESSARY FILES AND TURN YOUR PHONE INTO A BRICK. I only post it here since it is just another useful software tool for people looking to mod, add wallpapers and ringtones, etc. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

 

Attaching yet another cool utility you can use to mod settings on the razr, and some other moto phones (have used it on my V557). You can adjust speaker volume, earpiece volume, change startup and shut down graphics and more. Utility can do lots, but be careful as it can brick your phone if you don't know what your are doing. Avoid the seem editing section, flex section etc., unless you know what you are doing. Other than that program is pretty straight forward.

Props to mottomodders.net where I got this from.

 

I have tried everything and i still can not get my phone to connect to my computer. It works fine with MPT, Just not anything else.

 

Yesterday i went and un-installed all of the softwear that i downloaded and followed the guid step by step and i still got the same outcome. When i plug my phone in is registers as connected. But when i start p2k it disconnects and shows as not connected and i really don't know why. Am i just not able to mod my phone?

 

So, I'm still confused.. is it.. or is it not possible to have an "engineering" mode on the V3? I'd love to know when it's switching towers, for example.. and stuff like that.

Jay, do u have the answer?

 

Thanks Jay!

Yeah.. I've tried many options with p2k and some of the seem editors... but it hasn't shown up on my v3 yet.

 

Howdy... first off, if there is an admin here someplace, you should know that my first login here shut down my Firefox. Harrumph. Oh well.

Anyway, my friend has a Motorola V60i and I see these little emergency power packs for sale you can get for your phone that let you talk for an hour if your battery is crapping out. Thing is, the Motorola one they have is marked for a Motorola V8160. Anybody know if that would be any good to use for the V60i? As in would it fit the connector and be the correct voltage? These cost a buck and seem to be a nice thing to keep in your car.

 

Link reference #1 to n00b guide not working

Unless it's intended as a massive RIP on new users, the #1 referenced link to MOTOMODDERS n00b guide doesn't work.

- bunch of required registration screens, then pay $5 screens, then the link or the posting number searched separately doesn't work
- searching for n00b guide finds nothing relevant

Then I'm a n00b at that site, so I might have n00b'ed it.

 

Re: Link reference #1 to n00b guide not working

Motomodders.net appears to have made some changes to their site. I've found their search function to suck big time. I still use the direct menus at the top of the page to get to their firmware pages.

 

Hi,

I'm new here. Reading the thread, just wonder does PST really needed to associate other program? If yes, where do I look for PSt 7.2.3? It's not much mentioned where to download. :loony: I would like to try out the PST. Thanks.

 

Welcome to WA,

google for the software since it's an authorized Motorola program and technically may not be used by anyone except for Motorola's service centers.

Here is another handy guide (designed mainly for V3 RAZRs):

I have tried this way and the way that scrumhalf did it. My phone never connects
None of the drivers gp through upload or anything.
I'm starting to think my phones is a dud!
When I plug my usb cable into my phone...it says that some functions and applications are not accessible when plugged in. I'm wondering????

 

Kjo and I are going to have a gain table editing party here in PDX pretty soon.... anyone else around here is free to join us

 

hey has ne1 else on here got a tmobile v300 and used pst to make it a v600 and not have it recoginize tmobile nemore and alwyas say cingular and have 2 blue boxes connected my lines and the roaming triangle next to it? well if ya do, does it come on the bill as more, cause im a lil afraid of makin calls wit it nemore. help ne1?

 

This site is wonderful and all, but does anybody know how to get the aim on the slvr? Because with the downloading it onto the phone, there is no /a/wvim folder. unless i can create extra folders. also any video's i download and put into the /mobile/video folder never shows up. anybody know why?

 

Jay, I just used XVI32 to edit the mma_ucp and mma_dcp files following xlr8's procedure. Worked great for displaying the engineering menu on both my RAZR and V600.
