Post by: f1nch on April 29, 2009, 02:07:33 am
Hey!

I get tomorrow a Motorola E398 and i just wanna put a Monster Pack on it.
My question now, if i can kill the mobile with it if i maybe do somethinig wrong? :P
I read the last few days this forum and e398mod.com and i think i can do this but i dont wanna kill the phone if something not work properly. And if it is not safe for noobs then i will just install skins and stuff on the phone.


thx i hope for answers

First you will need to check if its a "virgin" E398. You need to go into bootloader for that - phone is turned off, then press (in this order, and hold) *+#+RED button, after a second or two, bootloader will show up. If it says some R372 software, you will need to convert your phone into a E398@ROKR (R373 software).

Detailed guide is here - http://mirror.softcox.com/e398-to-ROKR/

If its already one R373, you can just go ahead and flash any new MP (that is for E398 (07.D0 bootloader)). All this sounds complicated to you, I'm sure, but after the first flash you do - everything goes smooth and the results are sweet ;)
I've been modding since 2005th...

Maybe XP SP3 is more better.

Oke guys!Thx everything worked fine. I flashed to Rokr like in the tutorial and then i try some MP`s.
But i use FlashNBackup 3 now this is more easier and better works with my Vista.
after some trys i now use mbuhgakeruh`s MP, coz this one works best for me at the moment. the other one`s i tried dont find my sim card, or have bugs. i dunno i think i forgot to do somethin or i dunno.
I just dont managed now how to install new skins.but this will work also soon i think.

so thx guys great forum

You can do without computer.
Do with minicommander.
For ex:
1.Place many skin you like on b:\,do with comp.
2.Open minicommander.
3.Open c:\mobile\skin on the left screen.
4.Now open where you place the skin,on b:\,move screen use left soft key.
5.Then copy a skin folder by pressing 5 button.
6.Close minicommander and reboot your phone.
7.Enjoy.
