Title: Change name of the firmware
Post by: ZduneX25 on May 04, 2008, 01:30:40 am
You are doing the backup in the format .bin
You are opening it in XVI32
(http://dhost.info/alareel/grafika/art/XVI32_flash_1.jpg)

Next entering on menu: Search - Find...
(http://dhost.info/alareel/grafika/art/XVI32_flash_2.jpg)

In the opened window choosing Text String and writing down with capital letters platform. Still marking is important Case sensitive and searching into the bottom.
(http://dhost.info/alareel/grafika/art/XVI32_flash_3.jpg)

In the file they should be only 2 such entries. Standing on second and we are renaming flasha. One should think for keeping the same amount of signs in the name flasha. R373_G_0E.30.45R
(http://dhost.info/alareel/grafika/art/XVI32_flash_4.jpg)

R373_Alareel.45R
(http://dhost.info/alareel/grafika/art/XVI32_flash_5.jpg)

After the change again we are entering Find and writing the initial label of software down from a small letter, we are marking direction of searching - up and we are searching.

r373_G_0E.30.45r
(http://dhost.info/alareel/grafika/art/XVI32_flash_7.jpg)

r373_alareel.45r
(http://dhost.info/alareel/grafika/art/XVI32_flash_8.jpg)

After everything saving a file and flashing our phone. :)

@ ZduneX25
Thanks for sharing your tutorial Bro :)

But I prefer to use patch for changing firmware name. It's much simple ;)

You have to create your own patch of course. Change the value to what ever you want.
For example I rename my 49R firmware to R373_A603NK.49R
I create a patch as followed.
Code:
[Patch_Info]
SW_Ver=R373_G_0E.30.49R
Description=Rename firmware to R373_A603NK.49R
Author=are_goenk

[Patch_Code]
00984E94: 52 33 37 33 5F 41 36 30 33 4E 4B 2E 34 39 52 20

Yeah, Patch is like writing new hex value to firmware (CG1).
We can use aregoenk way if we already knew the address to start.
We will need ASCII table to help us, and the values are in Hex.

Example from aregoenk patch:
Address to start:984E94
The hex value:
52 = R
33 = 3
37 = 7
33 = 3
5F = _
41 = A
36 = 6
30 = 0
33 = 3
4E = N
4B = K
2E = .
34 = 4
39 = 9
52 = R
20 = Space

Yes, if you search through the firmware you will find its name in two places, I replaced both but second seems to be the one that actually changes it.. Nevermind, changing both doesnt do anything wrong

Really?
I have just checked all CG1 from 42R, 46R, 48R, 49R, 70R, 79R and elektro modded FW. I can only find firmware name in one place  :D

Edit:
My fault  :-[ I forget to turn off Case Sensitive option  :-[
You guys are right. There are two places that contain firmware name. R373..... and r373... :D

Yes, I found two. I check 42R and 49R. But one use capital letter (R) and the other one regular (r). Maybe thats why aregoenk didnt find it.

Post by: apollo1989 on May 10, 2008, 02:15:33 am
ok i have found that place with address 877A48 and i make patch just like are_goenk but after patching nothing change and i have found another address with r373 and make patch with both line after patching nothing have change and when i start some java my fone crush:/ i have 49r


Title: Re: Change name of the firmware
Post by: prasasti on May 10, 2008, 03:30:35 am
I guess u were wrong mate. If u using 49R, 877A48 is not the place. Its 48R like Niksy post.
U can use aregoenk patch, 984E94, u just need to edit the hex value.
