yetieateR's Super Duper Motorola RAZR Series Super Duper Guide
That's an awful lot of super duper.


Welcome to the updated Super Duper Motorola RAZR Series Super Duper Guide by yetieateR.

So, what's going to fill up this space? A list of pointers for owners of the RAZR series phones regarding modifying their phones to their own liking. Seem edits, information about P2K software and the like. Sure, all these resources are available at Motomodders and MotoX, but who wants to do the searching for themselves? I'm writing up this thread with one intention in mind - making sure that this becomes your one stop source for help regarding your phone.

Do note that I only own a Motorola RAZR V3i. Bear with me if problems pop up that I can't help you with. I'll do my best to support the RAZR V3 and RAZR V3x owners out there.

Getting Started
Alright, so you've got a Motorola RAZR phone and don't know what to do with it. Perhaps you've already installed Motorola Phone Tools (MPT) and have explored your phone in the constraints set by that software. Where do you go from there? The next logical step - hacking your Motorola RAZR.

Here's a question for you: why bother being content with what you've been given when you have the potential to do so much more? Your phone is a powerful piece of hardware - learn how to bend it to your needs.

You'll want to have easy access to the tools and software that are required to work with your RAZR series phone. Let's get started with a couple of sources for obtaining the software that you'll need when working with your phone. Take a look at the sources below.

MotoX Forum Modding Software Downloads
.::.: yetieateR's Motorola RAZR V3 / V3i Super-Site ::.:.

Getting Connected
Your best bet would be to look at one of these guides:

Motorola RAZR V3
The Moto Guide -- RAZR V3 Edition
Hack the V3.com
Motorola RAZR V3i
Hack the V3i.com

Note: Make sure that your Motorola RAZR is set to Data/Fax Connection under USB Settings. You can find this by going into the Menu, selecting Settings, Connection, USB Settings, and moving the left and right direction keys to select the appropriate connection mode.

I originally had some difficulty when trying to get my Motorola RAZR V3i to connect with my computer. Despite my USB Settings being set properly, I simply could not connect to my phone through any P2K software. I found that installing Motorola PST and running it before plugging in my phone helped. Alternatively, try running Motorola RSD Lite before plugging in your phone.

Motorola RAZR V3x
The Moto Guide -- RAZR V3x Edition

Useful Software
Motorola iMega Pack - Includes P2K Commander, P2K Manager, Skinner 4 Moto, and XVI32

The Basics
Congratulations - now you've learned how to ensure proper communication between your phone and your computer. The wealth of terminology associated with Motorola phone hacking is sure to overwhelm you if it's your first time trying it out. It's best to get familiar with the terms early on.

Mark's definitions of common Motorola modding terminology

As explained by The Moto Guide:
QUOTE
The Flex
The flex is the files and branding of the phone. Think of the flex as the Linux kernel, or the Windows version you run. Kind of. The flex is something we don't change as often, as they are updated less often than the flash. Updating the flex deletes any saved information you have, and any settings.

The Flash
The flash is the part we change most often. By now we have several types, but basically, the flash is the firmware of the phone. Think of it as the Linux distro. When you change the flash, it adjusts features, menus, and more. Also, things like the way your phone handles reception or menu speed are handled by flashes. Flashing your phone will not erase any of your media or settings. Then there's the seem.

The Seem
The seem is the individual pieces that make up the operating system on the phone. Every individual feature on your phone (SMS on/off, will the call end when you close the flip, can you access the web from your phone, etc) is all editable by changing a seem. More on that in the seem editing section, but basically seems are what you will change when you want to change one feature at a time.


Useful Sites
With the original goal of this thread set in mind, I've compiled a list of resources that have been most helpful in my Motorola modding experience. Take a look if you're ever stuck!

Some Basic Tricks

Let's Get Started!
Now you have both a working connection between your phone and your computer, and you should have some general knowledge of Motorola terminology. We'll get started with a few simple things first, just to help you get acquainted with your phone.

That Little Thing Called Software
Pretty much all the software that you will need to work with your phone can be found in the Motorola iMega Pack. I would recommend that you download P2K Tools Version 0.8.6 build 406 by Bezol, available for download from MotoX's Modding Software Downloads.

Make sure to bookmark MotoX's Modding Software Downloads for pretty much anything you need. You don't even need to register for these downloads smile.gif

Installing Java Games and Applications
This is actually a much simpler process than one would think. As I own a Motorola RAZR V3i and a V3i only, I will not be able to help those users who cannot get the RAZR V3 application installation to work properly.

An alternate method used to upload Java applications

RAZR V3i
.:: Quick Install Games/Apps V3i ::. RAZR V3i
The one and only guide you'll need when installing Java applications on your V3i. Follow the P2KTools instructions

Both RAZR V3 and V3i
You can try and install Java applications using a program called MotoMidMan. The newest version is compatible with both phones.

Useful Software
Modding Software Downloads
MotoMidMan
P2K Software (Requires Motomodders.net Registration)
Java Games (Requires Motomodders.net Registration)

Installing Skins
First off, where to get new skins for your RAZR phone? The sites listed below have a wealth of skins that you can look through. Find one that suits you and download it.
Skins on Motomodders.net
Skins on MotoX
Additional Skins on MotoX

Follow these guides to get your skins uploaded properly.
Skin Installation Flash Tutorials by Tvrtko
Excellent Flash guides that show you how to upload skins onto your Motorola RAZR
[STICKY]HOW TO PUT SKINS ON YOUR PHONE(P2KTOOLS)

If your skin has a custom cl.gif, startup and shutdown sounds, or startup and shutdown animations, there's a little more that you'll have to do.

Changing cl.gif
The cl.gif file is the image that is displayed on your RAZR's outer LCD display when the phone's flip cover is opened. See mine?

Just a little bit of reading if you're interested in learning a little more about cl.gif
Custom cl.gif

Note: The cl.gif file must have image dimensions 96x80 pixels and cannot be an animated .gif

There are two methods that you can use to change your cl.gif.

Method 1 - Replace the original
As mentioned in the page linked above, you can replace the cl.gif file that already exists in /a/mobile/system/. Use P2KTools or a similar P2K application to navigate to this directory. You may want to back up the original Motorola cl.gif. Simply upload your new cl.gif file into this directory, restart your phone, and look at the outer LCD screen. You did it!

Method 2 - Seem edit for cl.gif changes anytime, anywhere
The problem with the first method for cl.gif changes is that you must have access to a computer in order to change the cl.gif. What if you want to change cl.gif while you're on a trip? This method allows you to change cl.gif whenever you want.

Quick Change cl.gif on Motorola RAZR V3i!

This should work with the Motorola RAZR V3 as well. If you don't want to do your own seem edits, you can always download MotoX's Prehacked 0061 and 0062 SEEMs:

Save to /c/mobile/picture/c.gif
Save to /b/mobile/picture/c.gif

What's the difference between the two sets of hacked seems? Saving to /b/mobile/picture/c.gif is possible only if your RAZR has a MicroSD / TransFlash card slot. Saving to /c/mobile/picture/c.gif will work with all Motorola RAZR phones.

With this method, you can simply rename your desired outer LCD display image to c.gif, restart your phone, and move on! I'm using Method 2 right now.

Too lazy to make your own cl.gif images? Check out MotoX's cl.gif collection smile.gif

Seem Edits
Seem edits were first mentioned in Method 2 - Seem edit for cl.gif changes anytime, anywhere. Let's get further into this very important part of Motorola hacking.

The Basics
To get started, read up:
Planet MotoX: Guide to Seem Editing

Seems control practically every aspect of your phone's operation. Learning how to control seems grants you control over your phone. Read up.

Note that you already have all the software that you need to begin SEEM editing if you downloaded the Motorola iMega Pack. If you haven't downloaded any SEEM editing software yet, it may be a good idea to do so now. Head on over to MotoX's Modding Software Downloads and pick up XVI32.

Note: When working with seems, it is always a good idea to keep backups on hand. Make sure to make backups of the stock seem before hacking it to bits. Keep your seems neat and orderly, like so:
user posted image

Basic Seem Editing
Make sure you have downloaded and extracted P2KTools v0.8.6. Besides being a very useful piece of software, P2KTools can also be used for some basic seem editing. The best part about P2KTool's seemediting? You don't have to do anything except for hit a few checkboxes.
  1. Open up P2KTools with your Motorola RAZR connected to your computer.
  2. Click on the Other Features button on the menu
  3. Press the Get button at the bottom of the screen
  4. Navigate through the tabs (Java, Messages, Multimedia, Office Tools, Alerts, Other, Recent Calls) and check the boxes that you want to activate/deactive
  5. When you're finished, press the Set button at the bottom of the screen
There you go. You just did some seem editing. Or rather, you had P2KTools do it for you. Easy, isn't it?

Seem Edits
SEEM Discovery for Video Camera

Fixing Unicode Support in SMS
A quick fix if your friends are receiving blank messages from you when you type in Chinese or other unicode charactersets.
QUOTE
Need a little help here. I'm using my Motorola RAZR V3i with language pack 0015 on it - US English and Simplified Chinese. If I switch to Simplified Chinese as my input mode and send an SMS with Chinese characters in it, the receiving party gets nothing but blank spots where the Chinese characters should be. I tried sending a message from my phone to itself with Chinese - also blank. Then I used my T630 and sent a message in Chinese to my phone. This worked properly.

I can create Chinese SMSes, but they don't send properly. When I create the message, I see all the Chinese characters. Upon sending, I looked at the Outbox and noticed that the messages that I had written were completely blank - no characters.

Know what could be causing this? Would a LP reflash fix things up?


The fix:

Use P2KTools.

Use P2KTools and open the Seem Editor.
1. Load SEEM 0032.0001 from the phone
2. Click on Offset 3F (the intersection between 030 and 0F)
3. CHECK bit 0, bit 1, bit 2, and bit 4
4. Save to Phone
5. Restart your phone

Writing out more seem edits here wouldn't be too useful. Get inspired: take a look at the seem edits on HacktheV3i.com and on HacktheV3.com

The Holy Grail of Seem Edits
Want to find out what that seem edit will do? Look no further.

More Fun

Funlights
In the /c/mobile/audio folder, there is a file called funlight.pat. This file contains pattern information that directs your RAZR on which lights to turn on, and when. By replacing the original funlight.pat for an edited one, we can make the phone keypad backlight turn on and off when receiving calls, cycle between external lights when charging, etc.

Here's what the moto guide has to say about funlights.

Before we get started, take a look at Calling all funlight.pat Modders!. There are a handful of funlight.pat files available for download. You'll need to register with the MotoX forums in order to download them, though. The first post also has information on editing your own custom funlight.pat.

Enabling Funlights is easy:
1) Connect your RAZR series phone to your computer
2) Open P2KTools and refresh the directory structure
3) Navigate to /c/mobile/audio/ and find funlight.pat
4) Copy this original funlight.pat to a backup folder on your harddrive
5) Find your custom funlight.pat file and upload it to /c/mobile/audio
6) Click on the Other Features menu item and press Get
7) Click on the Multimedia menu item and check
CLUB_LIGHTS_AVAILABLE
CLUB_LIGHT_AVAILABLE
ALERT_LIGHTS_AVAILABLE

8) Restart your phone
9) Go to Settings >> Ring Styles
10) Choose any style (doesn't matter unless the funlight.pat has been written to use different patterns per style) and enjoy

With the drivers that were linked to above, simply extract the .RAR archive to a convenient spot. Perhaps something on your desktop. Keep them all in one folder to make things easy.

When you plug in your Motorola phone with the USB mode set to Data/Fax Connection, Windows will pop up the Add New Hardware wizard. Don't allow the wizard to connect to Windows Update and direct the wizard to the drivers that you have extracted. Windows should recognize and install:

Accessories Interface
Data Logging MCU Interface
Motorola Test Command

Keep your phone plugged in and open up P2KTools or a similar P2K program to access your phone.

I'll make sure to add this when I get around to SEEM editing. Games for the V3i? Pretty much anything will run on it, from the best of my knowledge. Best to head over to the Java Software download page on Motomodders.net to get applications for your RAZR V3i. Refer to my second post in this thread for installation directions.

No problem. All questions are welcome, guys. I need them in order to get some direction here. I've updated the thread a bit. I still need to cover some P2K software basics before moving on to SEEM editting and possibly flashing. Stay tuned for more.

No problem, sonyclie.

Still have to add on more tweaks with P2KTools, information about Funlights / Clublights / Event Lights, possibly move on to flashing. I should put some skins on my own V3i..

I will make a note to get the iTunes file to you, cyberloner. Where should I be looking for the original? I don't know how the iTunes application works exactly. If worse comes to worse, I could do a MP reflash of my V3i.

Which reminds me, I need to learn how to make a Monster Pack.

MotoMidMan v030 didn't work with my RAZR V3i so I found v038. Worked like a charm. I'll be holding onto this software.

I found the .JAR and have it backed up. PMed you, cyberloner.

Hopefully this works smile.gif

From what I understand, Flash Backup will make a complete backup of the phone's flash files. Your contacts will have to be backed up separately, as will your ring tones. SEEM edits? I don't know.

Use Motorola Phone Tools (included with your phone) to back up your Address Book. All the rest of the files can be backed up with P2KTools (ringtones, Java applications, skins)

Definitions of RSA on the Web:

* RSA is the public key encryption method used in PGP. RSA are the initials of the developers of the algorithm. The basic security in RSA comes from the fact that, while it is relatively easy to multiply two huge prime numbers together to obtain their product, it is computationally difficult to go the reverse direction: to find the two prime factors of a given composite number. ...

Why would you need to flash your phone to begin with? Do you have a RAZR V3i with iTunes or without iTunes?

You can change the outer LCD display image, enable funlights / clublights / event lights, flash to a new software revision. There's plenty more. I'll update this thread again when I have the will to do it.

Flashing your phone requires the Flash files which can be found at MotoX and Motorola RSD Lite.

Regarding your question, cool123, you cannot install iTunes onto a non-iTunes V3i at this point in time. You'll have to make do with Motorola Digital Audio Player.

QUOTE
The Flex
The flex is the files and branding of the phone. Think of the flex as the Linux kernel, or the Windows version you run. Kind of. The flex is something we don't change as often, as they are updated less often than the flash. Updating the flex deletes any saved information you have, and any settings.

The Flash
The flash is the part we change most often. By now we have several types, but basically, the flash is the firmware of the phone. Think of it as the Linux distro. When you change the flash, it adjusts features, menus, and more. Also, things like the way your phone handles reception or menu speed are handled by flashes. Flashing your phone will not erase any of your media or settings. Then there's the seem.


It might not even be necessary to flash or flex your phone. Have you tried the Master Reset and Master Clear options in the Personalize menu?

You'll have to use P2KTools, your USB cable, and the phone itself. Skins have to be installed directly onto the phone.

Your unit has iTunes? If you're not afraid to flash, then you can reflash with a monster pack. That'll update your phone's software and flex, and will also clear off anything that's on there.

In Hangzhou right now. I'll be back in KL in a number of days.

lokgotz, doing any modding will technically void your warranty. Then again, how important are those, anyways? If you are really unwilling to do your own flashing, then it's best to take the phone down to a Motorola service center. Then you have the assurance that even if something goes wrong, it's not your fault.

As for the V3x, I don't know what to do. I'm still trying to troubleshoot an issue with my phone and sending messages in Simplified Chinese.

before u flash ur phone, make sure u make a complete backup for ur phone.
in case u really screw up, u still can use the backup.

however, if u flashed ur phone without backing up, u may have serious consequences. sometimes if the bootloader is changed, then u will brick ur phone

Flashes done to your Motorola phone from home are generally safe. Do keep in mind that Monsterpack flashes can upgrade the Bootloader. Provided that you read the guides about flashing, you should be set.

I will update when I have some time.

The V3i has rather basic functions. You've got your Bluetooth, MicroSD card slot for additional memory, SMS, MMS, Web Browser, speakerphone. It's a decent phone, its feature set is not exactly rich in today's standards. The styling is its main selling point.

If you read the first few posts in this thread, you'll have a better understanding of the terms. When you flash the phone, you are rewriting the memory with a new software revision, language pack, etc. This may fix some old software-related problems or give your phone new functionality.

SEEM Editing is similar to making changes in your computer's registry. You can control a wide range of settings through SEEM edits.

MPT is different from what's in the Motorola iMega Pack. The iMega Pack has P2KCommander, the Motorola P2K Drivers, XVI32, and Skinner 4 Moto. MPT is a Motorola release that allows you to sync your phone with your computer, compose SMSes from your computer to send through your phone, etc. It's not particularly powerful software, but it's nice for backing up your address book.

Ask whoever you bought your phone from to supply you with the MPT installation CD. Otherwise, it's going to take a bit of searching to find it. smile.gif

For those looking on how to flash their RAZR phones:

That firmware is for the RAZR V3 only, not for the V3i. Please see here for all V3i Monster Packs:

That one should work for you.

You can also consider using a reflash_mlp:

These update your phone's Flex and Software, but do not change the Language Pack. Just one less thing to fix up after the new flash smile.gif

The RAZR V3i iTunes and DAP version flash files are not compatible with one another. If you flash a V3i iTunes with a DAP flash, you will brick the phone. The same goes for a DAP V3i flashed with an iTunes flash.

Flashing can't be done by P2KTools. sad.gif You'll have to get RSD or RSD Lite in order to do that. From cyberloner's MOTOSLVR L7 thread:
QUOTE
Motorola RSD 2.5 (You may find it by google "CyberMania")
You need to install this RSD 1st ... else motomidman cannot connect to phone...
Need point C:\Program Files\Common Files\Motorola Shared\MotPCSDrivers
for driver install

The Reflash_mlp_mdrm means that the file contains neither a language pack nor a set of DRM icons. You can go ahead and use this file to flash your phone. Its main purpose is for those Motorola users who have already customized their DRM icons and do not want to flash them on again after upgrading.

i've did the seem edit on the sound player.
now using it as a alternative for itunes, no more 50 songs limit.
just use playlist to organize the songs, i.e. a playlist for an album or a particular singer/genre/language/etc and a playlist for all the songs if you want to play the whole selection.
works pretty good and gotten myself a 1GB microSD to store the songs.

Reflash Files

The Reflash will update your software version only, leaving the Flex alone. MLP indicates that the flash file does not contain a language pack. This is useful if you are happy with your current language pack or do not want to go through the hassle of flashing to update the software and then flashing on a new language pack. MDRM indicates that the flash file does not contain DRM icons. This is useful if you already have custom DRM icons and do not want to revert back to the Motorola defaults.
QUOTE(jinaun @ Apr 20 2006, 09:57 AM)
Monster packs

MPs contain flash, Flash, and can also be used to update the bootloader. These are particularly useful in the event that a bad flash occurs. Reflashing a bricked phone with a new MP will restore it to working condition in most situations.

Contains both the Flex and a software update.

As always, make sure to back up before attempting a flash.

i want those setting to be maintained when i flash "Reflash_mlp(tm)", is that ok?

*btw, i can't seem to find changelog to show then changes/updates/improvements between version of flex and firmwares.

my v3x currently got problem with alarm which will not ring at presetted time when enabled, and the sound alert for incoming sms.. seems to be very different from what i choose.. i choose doorbell.. and tested the sound ok, but when received sms.. the sound is "zing" and not the doorbell sound

I'm not too sure where these settings are located on the phone memory. I'm pretty sure that the settings will be erased, though. Best to note it all down.

I can't get my hands on a changelog for the updates, either. Flex is more related to the actual branding of the phone, not so much the functionality of it.

Must apologize once again because I have no experience with the RAZR series outside of the V3i. Perhaps try to do a Master Clear / Master Reset. This will, however, erase everything that you have already put on the phone. Bear in mind that flashing your phone will also reset it back to stock status.

When you guys connect your phone to your PC, does Windows auto detect it? Mine says that it needs to reboot after installing some drivers. Also, when you plug your phone in, iTunes says "Upadating Mobile Phone" is this normal? Howcome the transfer is so slow, USB 1.1? unsure.gif

I also sometimes feel like the conection is kinda "buggy" like sometimes cannot eject it, it says "files in use" and iTunes constantly updates the phone while transfering songs. Browsing the phone's directory is also kinda slow.

Ok, do you only want to transfer songs? If that's the case, then you don't need to install MPT. Install MPT only if you want to back up your address book or your SMSes. That's what I use it for.

When you connect your V3i to your computer, XP will detect it as a Motorola RAZR V3i (iTunes) and will automatically install drivers. You shouldn't have to point it out to anything specific. When the USB Connection Mode is set to Memory Card, the V3i will automatically attempt to sync with iTunes.

Yes, it's normal for iTunes to say "Updating Mobile Phone". The transfer rate is slow because the V3i uses USB 1.1. The same applies to the SLVR L7.

Browsing the phone through Windows Explorer is slow. If you connect your phone in Data/Fax Mode to P2KTools, it's rather quick at finding and updating directories.

Yes, you can flash the language pack and it should be perfectly fine. I flashed my R47A_G_08.D8.67R with R479_G_08.B4.37R_LP0015_reflash. When it reached 99%, it popped up with an error. However, rebooting the phone showed that the flash had completed successfully.

When i installed the P2K commander, an icon would show up on my taskbar, kinda like a red star, called the P2K autostart. I had some problems with my USB after that, so i unistalled the imega pack , which fixed my problem.

The icon is still there though, i don't know how to get rid of it. I tried searching and deleting all P2Kautostart files too.

Anyone had this?

I have a V3 (USA Cingular).

After installing the driver and RSD. This is the info i manage to get from my phone.

IMEI: #############
Technology: Quad-Band GSM
Software Version: R374_G_0E.41.C3R_B
Flex Version: GSMV3MVCINB01NA10F - 2.0.L.3.2.0.0.45.1L.0.18.0.0.0.1.2O.A.0.5D.26
Bootloader Version: N / A
DRM Version: 0001
Bound Signature: Allowed

I went to MotoX website and overwhelm by the sheer number of packages.

What is the package that is recommended? Any difference between Monster Machine and Monster Pack?

And Reflash is actually a standalone flash image compare to Monster?

If i only use English, I don't need and Language Pack?

How come i don't have Bootloader?

Do i need to unlock my phone first?

Thanks.

The Monster Machine packs are ones that have been hacked and put together by MotoX.

The Reflash will update only the software version and will also write whatever Language Pack is present in the flash file onto your phone. Monsterpacks are useful in that they can upgrade your Bootloader. Reflashing a bricked phone with a Monster Pack will generally bring it back smile.gif

QUOTE
Flash - This is the software that controls the hardware part of the phone. By a flash update, you might be able to see the improvemets in quality of camera, navigating speed, signal strength as well as fixing bugs. By default, flash (reflash) file contains a language pack, and it will not touch the personal settings on your phone since it doesn't contain a flex part of the phone. Flash file extension for RAZR V3 is shx.

Flex - The flex contains all the system files and the seems. With a new flex update, you could gain new features, ringtones, java games/apps, wallpapers, and get rid of provider brandings, etc. Flex file extension for RAZR V3 is hs. You will lose personal settings such as contacts when you flex your phone. Make sure to backup before flexing.

Monster Pack - All in one package that contains flash file, flex, and language pack.
Your phone does have a Bootloader. Turn off your phone and wait for it to shutdown completely. Then hold down the # and * keys while holding the red power button. The phone will boot up in Bootloader mode displaying the Bootloader version and the software version.

The flex is the branding of the phone. Don't worry too much about these numbers.

What provider are you using your V3 with right now?

I would suggest that you reflash with the most recent Monster pack, available direct from MotoX here.

By flashing this Monster pack, it will erase my LanguagePack? Why do i need to flash with new Language Pack? I only need English.

In the event something screw up after flashing, wat option i have?? hehe...

Can explain more on the FunLight? i read ur explanation but don't quite get it. I don't see any possible led outside the case that could be lid up (except for the exterior screen) to indicate an event like SMS arrived.

BTW, i'm on Digi Prepaid.

Sorry exshige, I have no idea what improvements have been made in the MP that I linked versus the software revision that you're using right now. Generally, the phone is optimized a little further for speed.

Yes, using this flash will erase your current LP. The LP in the MP that I posted earlier is LP0039 (UK English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Turkish, Portuguese). A little overkill for most of us smile.gif

Another option is to reflash using a reflash_mlp, that is a flash file that does not alter your phone's flex or its current LP. Here's an appropriate one:

Download

R374_G_0E.42.10R_B_reflash_mlp_MOTOX.shx

DSP Version: 62343400

Assuming that it was simply a problem with the flash file that you used, you can attempt to restore the phone using another MP. If this fails, then you'll have to do a test-point flash. This is a little more complicated and requires diassembly of the phone itself. If you end up in even deeper trouble you'll have to find someone with a SmartClip to repair your phone for you.

Don't worry though, flashing's pretty safe.

Does the RAZR V3 have no external Bluetooth and Battery Charge indicator LEDs? Those are present on the Motorola RAZR V3i, along with a blue Motorola logo. Eventlights, based on the pattern that has been used, will light up external lights when you have received an SMS. Funlights will light up the backlight, keypad lights, etc. when you receive a call. Clublights will light up the backlight and keypad lights when playing back sound files. Clublights sync to music, or so I hear - I haven't used them.

Diademz, the pack that you posted information on is one of MotoX's Monster Machine MPs. These are MotoX hacked MPs. The stock Motorola Monster Packs are listed further down the page here.

I would recommend that you use Motorola RSD Lite to flash your phone. That's what I've been using for the Motorola RAZR V3i. RSD Lite is available from the site linked in my signature.

Thanks yetieater.

RSD Lite worked just fine. I also started messing around with new skins via P2kcommander and followed the flash tutorial to install skins. However, checking the README in some of the skins recommended using PST first to install the Flex files - is this step necessary? Because when I tried it it always error'ed out.

With the new flash/flex applied I noticed I have lots of EU languages - can I use RSD Lite again to reflash to a new LP containing eg English/Chinese?

Hi moto owner, just found out that motorola can check our flashing phone history by open the PDS record inside our phone, even we also can check our own flashing history by using FLASHBACKUP 2.62 pds editor. so for all original sets becareful when modding. I myself almost kena void warranty by motorola that day coz of flashing so many times. tongue.gif

I believe that the whole flex thing was necessary in older phones. I'm not so sure about this. I myself just copy the skin directory over to the respective directories on the phone itself.

Yup! Simply reflash to a new LP if you have languages that you don't need lying around. Download LP0015 (US English + Simplified Chinese) from here.

hit yetieater,

Before flashing the LP, do you know if different LPs will consume more/less space in the v3? Eg If I flash a English/Chinese LP vs. a English/Dutch/German/Turkish/Timbaktu LP, would the LP with less languages save more space?

I don't think there will be any change in the amount of space that it occupies. If there is any difference, it will be negligible.

hi to all sifu, i'm the new user of v3. I have encounter some problem with this phone:
1) when tried to categorised my phone book entries ( wish to assign ring tones to specific numbers) it seems like cannot group to the default categories i.e VIP, personal, business etc. And then i read manual book, it says that in order to categorised, the phone numbers must be in phone memory instead of sim's memory, rite? so i tried and it also persists the same problem which when i change the stlye detail, it will come back to the menus page...... mad.gif mad.gif
2) i've been using nokia phones previously, so when copy the phone number from sim to phone which prompt me whether to merge or overwrite and i've selected overwrite and poof all my number went missing.... mad.gif mad.gif . I thought that when i overwrite from sim to phone even when the phone memory numbers is more than sim memory , its should not deleting my phone memory numbers, rite?
still frustrating over this matters, could anyone pls help or advice?
thanks in advance and sorry abt my broken english

Does the sound play even when you put your phone on Silent? I don't know because I haven't run down to that low battery level for a while.

lek_e30,

I believe it's necessary to place a number on your phone in order to adjust its Category. I have no problems assigning categories to contacts. Ensure that you are indeed selecting a contact that is on the phone.

When you select to Overwrite, it will clear off the phone's contact information and then replace it with the SIM card's information. Make sure to Merge next time. smile.gif Do use Motorola Phone Tools to back up Phonebook information.

Yes, it's possible to change the font. cooldreamer has modded the LP0015 for the Motorola RAZR V3i to a pixel font. Get it here under Files | Motorola RAZR V3i.

name, you never know until you try. I believe the majority of the modifications listed within this thread are compatible with the V3x.

The language pack can be flashed to a V3i iTunes or V3i non-iTunes. They'll both work fine, no bricks and I can confirm this. I believe the bootloader is the same..

I actually have all the MMS stuff turned off in my seem 0032_0001. I never used it smile.gif

Yes, it'll brick your phone if you flash it with the wrong flash smile.gif If your phone is the iTunes variant, it will have a dedicated iTunes button on the keypad above the red power / end call button. It will also have an icon for iTunes in the menu.

I'm using the .67R build right now and happy with it. Heard some mixed feelings about some of the newer builds that are available, mostly in that the menus are slower to navigate.

My first try, it took me 4 grueling hours (wasted some time due to the wrong sized Torx screw driver and the external screen which wont fit into the new housing). After the 1st attempt, I take around 30 - 60 minutes to open it and put it all back together.

The front faceplate looks like OEM. But the plastic frame on the inside of it (the frame which holds the screw) is not tightly glued to the faceplate. So even if you screw it tight u'll still see a small gap between ur new front faceplate and the body. The same goes for the battery cover. The release button doesn't stick tight to the cover, so one of the side already "tercabut". I guess when u go and search for those non-OEM housings, try to compare with the original housing that you have.

Oh BTW, I swapped back to my good old original housing biggrin.gif Coz the external screen won't fit and I dont wanna put the extra effort trying to resize the front faceplate. I grind 1 side already to make it bigger but it just doesnt look nice.

Hi all, just found out that this 85R can receive MMS 300kb while the 67R only receive MMS 100kb. But it mostly is flex dependant, while i still wanna flash to 67R but the 100kb MMS limit turn me off.

Naziaf, hows the rubber screw cover thingy?any solution on it?

Haven't found a solution yet. But I plan to chop off fractions of the rubber to make it fit.

Come to think of it, the flip looks and feels nicer when closed without the rubber stopper. It's completely level with the microphone housing at the bottom. Of course, without the rubber, the keypad touches the screen but my screen is always dirty anyway cause I have sweaty palm biggrin.gif

Throwing something out to see if you guys have any idea on how to resolve the issue. I will not be able to check if the fix works until I get back to KL.

I start composing a message and Save to Drafts. From the Message Center I check the Drafts box and find the message. In the list I see:
1) (None)

I should be seeing:
1) Blahblahblahblhab

Any clues? I think I'll reflash with the .67R MP and LP0015 and redo seem edits. The last thing I did with my phone was modifying the operators list and editing My Maxis to display something else. That required an edit to some seem or other which may very well be the culprit.

Hi gang,

I dropped my phone 3 times and now the display (and sometimes even the power) is not 100% working.

The 1st symptom was that the phone was ON, I can dial manually and receive calls but of course I couldnt see anything on the display.

Then sometimes my phone will turn off by itself. And I couldnt turn it on after that. I keep on trying by taking out the battery, leave it for awhile, and then put it back in again. I try to boot up into bootloader mode, the S/W version will appear on the screen (which shows that the screen is actually ok), switch it off. After this the screen will appear white for a second and turn off again. Then the phone can turn on normally. WTF???

So that's always the recovery mechanism, but most of the time I can't get it to boot into bootloader mode. Hafta keep on trying. I checked the ribbon cable on the mainboard and on the display board, I even reseat the connectors, but the problem is still there.

Now I notice that when I get to boot up in bootloader mode, the fonts and screen isnt that nice anymore. There are white spots everywhere and the fonts aren't as sharp as before. Seems like the display is becoming more and more defective.

Another thing I notice is when my phone won't turn on, and I take out the battery, when the connection on the battery touches the connection on the phone, the BT led will flash once. Something like its getting a flow of current there for a moment (short circuit??).

Another thing is when I turn on the charger and connect the USB cable, I can see a small rush of current (or small spark) on the mini USB port. Wow...I think it could be something due to hardware/circuit grounding. Not sure tho.

You've got guts to take apart that phone~ Did you buy the AP warranty one? Having been dropped three times, I can understand that the phone will be a little quirky.

Hi yetieater,

I guess curiosity kills the phone after all smile.gif I bought my V3i with MDM warranty. Was thinking of replacing the keypad flex cable from cnn.cn but not in the right financial situation rite now.

BTW, I just found out sth. The bootload mode is not actually helping anything. The screen just happens to work when I was booting up in bootload mode, that's why I tot bootload mode fixed it! All this while the phone went into bootloadmode but I can't see it as the screen was down. Haha. How stupid of me.

na.tech, you must have the MP3 files on the Phone memory in order to set them as ringtones. It's a limitation that may be overcome in the future, but it's hard to say for now.

Installing games? I linked to a guide here. Follow it and enjoy!

Restore your backup mma files or download backup files here. What are you trying to do? Enable 12 icons?

Want to make your own 12 icon menu? Try this:

Correct, as of now there's no way to use a file on the memory card as your ringtone. There is a seem edit for enabling it, but I don't think it works.

You've got the V3i iTunes, right? Check your current S/W Version by keying in *#9999#. The latest and greatest firmware for V3i iTunes is A1R - you can find the reflash for download here.

There IS a firmware for non iTunes V3i-s to use ringtones on the TF Card.. you have to edit a seem too.. the firmwares include R479_...B5.10R, etc.. from my observation, any R479 firmwares (for non-iTunes) with the ..B5.xx designation (instead of the older ..B4.xx) can use ringtones on the TF card with the help of SEEM edits..

i read some where that you can also install DAP on iTunes sets but not vice-versa.. is this true?

V3i Flashing Guide from MotoX:
http://www.motox.info/showthread.php?t=5747

There is a guide to installing Motorola DAP somewhere on the forum as well. You have to obtain the Motorola DAP Java application and then transfer it onto your phone either through the microSD or using Moto MidMan.

If you play audio files from Sounds menu, yes, it will stop playing when u close the flip. However, there's a seem edit to enable the audio files to be played while the flip's closed. You have to refer to www.motox.info forum for details.

Seems for sound player:

offset 6A - bit 5: Multimedia > Sounds > Audio Player > Playlist (1 on, 0 off)

offset 6F - bit 2: Multimedia > Videos/Pictures/Sounds > Auto Repeat (1 on, 0 off)
bit 3: Multimedia > Videos/Pictures/Sounds > Shuffle (1 on, 0 off)

offset 9A - bit 7: BLOCK Multimedia > Sounds ability to create playlists and hide player (1 on, 0 off) (set to 0 to allow playlists and hiding of player)

Hmm! I have the Hide function enabled on my phone for the Sounds player. Can't get Shuffle to work, though.

eh guys.....newbie got 2 questions here :

1. How do i turn-up the v3i phone volume ? Just bought a OEM earphones and must say, its pretty dissapointing. Nothin like e398. Even when turned the volume up to max, the sound is just so-so.


2. Is there anything i could do to increase the battery life? Apart from flashing m,y phone with new firmware. Now the fon can only last 2 days with moderate usage, is kinda annoying that i needed to charge it everytime.


Other than this 2 issues, im pretty happy wif my v3i. Its by far the most sexiest fon ever built. Thanks in advance for your help, sifu's biggrin.gif

You'll have to edit the gain_table.bin file on your V3i in order to boost volume levels. Try mine if you'd like:

my gaintable

You'll have to learn how to use P2KTools before you can do much in terms of modding. It's a must smile.gif

Hi All & thanks in advance.

Bought a V3i Itunes today after buying one for my wife last week.. very impressed with them both..

Wife wont let me play with her phone until warranty period expires but the specs of my phone is:

B/L 0A.30.
SW Version: R47A_G_08.D8.88R
Flex: GSPSLQAT676VBOD8
DSP S/W: 63242400
Language: 0024

I am trying to back everything up just in case and am using FlashBackup by Random V2.62 - the phone is in data/fax mode in USB settings but when it goes into data B/L mode - returns a Critical Error 84

I also tried Scotty2 V3i Backup/SHX Creation Utility beta but got this instead (worked fine for wifes phone)

Phone found!
Launching backup thread...
Phone flash interface found!
Sending ramldr...
Failed.

What does this mean, what am I doing wrong ?

Secondly, I have a Kingston 1Gb Micro SD TF card for it, but it won't format and therefor not recognised in Itunes, or when it has done, cannot drag songs into it saying :unable to read /write.. I'm onto my 2nd TF card change with same results.. I used a different brand 1gb card at the phone shop and it worked without a hitch (FYI) but unable to check with Itunes.

Can someone tell me whats the problem here also ??

Finally, I inquired on a Firmware reflash for the wifes phone, would an upgrade be appropriate for the memory in this case and if so, can you link me to one that would help or the same one given my specs above.

thanks !

p.s. Please add me to the Owners list..

Just use the same attributes that are in place on the current gain_table.bin file. I don't think the attributes are of utmost importance. Overwrite what's currently on there after you've made a backup and restart your phone to see the changes.

Oh. I thought you had a RAZR V3i. Whoops. Will update in a second, after dinner.

Edit: Here you go, the proper language pack for the RAZR V3:

This is LP0015, containing Simplified Chinese and US English.

Thanks for your help in advance.

P/S: Thanks to all of you, now i can design new custom skin for my mobile drool.gif

Your computer doesn't say anything at all? RSD Lite doesn't show anything either?

Making Java games compatible across platforms would take some work. No idea how to do it, but I imagine it wouldn't be a simple hack.

Sorry that I can't be more helpful with your RAZR V3 issue. Does your computer pop up any driver installation dialogs when you plug your phone into your computer? If so, use the drivers here and see if you can fix it up:
http://www.motox.info/showpost.php?p=114694&postcount=3

Does the RAZR V3 allow you to alter Connection Settings?

liquid_ooze, take a look here:

I haven't had much experience with the Motorola RAZR V3. I think you're right about it not having the USB Connection menu option. Just follow the directions on the site that I linked to above and poke around. Think the RAZR V3 should be automatically detected by the computer, but I can't say for sure.

Try a different funlight pattern file. Maybe yours isn't made specifically to light up the charge indicator.

I've tested the custom startup and shutdown animations and they're working great. Quite a long delay before the Motorola screen disappears and the startup animation begins, though.

Woah, what are you looking for 65 for?

Instructions for setting custom startup and shutdown animations:
QUOTE
a. Create Custom startup/shutdown (custwakeup.gif & custgoodbye.gif) animation (176 x 220) and store them in /a/ folder.

b. Deactivate Moto startup animation - SEEM 0032_0001 > offset 1D > bit 3 [Uncheck]

c. Deactivate Moto shutdown animation - SEEM 0032_0001 > offset 31 > bit 0 [Uncheck]

d. Activate Custom startup (custwakeup.gif) animation - SEEM 004a_0001 > offset 23 [Set 01]

e. Activate Custom shutdown (custgoodbye.gif) animation - SEEM 0032_0001 > offset 46 > bit 0 [Check]

f. Splash screen (not an animated GIF):
For Blue (Purple) Flower Hellomoto Splash screen - SEEM 004a_0001 > offset 1C0 [Set 01]
For Hellomoto Splash screen - SEEM 004a_0001 > offset 1C0 [Set 00]
* Splash screen can not be turned off. As of now, this SEEM has not been discovered.

Use P2K Man (part of the Motorola iMega Pack) or P2KTools to get seem 004a_0001 and seem 0032_0001 from your V3i. Save these seems to your harddrive. Keep one original copy for backup purposes and use another one for modding.

Open seem 0032_0001 using XVI32. Pay attention to the bottom left field labeled Adr. hex - this will tell you where you are in the seem file. Using this, find your way to offset 1D. From the Tools menu, choose Bit Manipulation and uncheck bit 3.

Follow the rest of the directions, making sure to save your modifications. Use P2K Man or P2KTools to upload your newly modified seem files. Provided that your custom startup and shutdown animations are in the right folders, they should work now. Restart your phone and take a look to see if it works smile.gif

Changing the brightness setting on the inner screen will also change the brightness setting on the outer screen. What do you mean by screensaver clock? The backlight is off when the outer screen displays the time only and changing the brightness won't affect that.

Don't think there's anything you can do about that. Just hit the Voice Key while your phone is closed and let the backlight turn on. That's what I do tongue.gif

No way to do that, you'll have to use the USB cable.

kelvinyam, perhaps you'll have more luck with a more recent build of RSD Lite. Either that or you'll have to use another computer for modding your phone. There might be commandline installation options, but I'm not sure about that.

* Installing RSD Lite fails with error message "Default drive of D: detected [...]"

Try using another computer or re-installing the OS.

(Stupid answer!!!)


1) run regedit.exe

2) go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup

3) change BootDir value from D: to C:

4) Run setup now

Will the warranty be void after soft modification? How can people know whether has it been mod before? Can it be un-mod? Thanks.

The reason warranty void is because if you flash your mobile, the flex and s/w firm no. is totally different from the original. Means they will know it. Well, how to avoid that? Just flash back your original firmware when you go for the service tongue.gif but mostly when your mobile spoil,what I mean here is your mobile hardware...means you can't do anything to reflash the firmware into the original then you have to return to the shop for the service they will know it...unless they don't know what is flash/firmware/flex then you can just escape from void warranty sweat.gif

Well, after some looking around I think I can answer my own question tongue.gif

Actually, there IS an emulator for Moto phones (otherwise how would they get developed?) and it's officially from Motorola itself. Look around MOTODEV and you'll find this: http://developer.motorola.com/?path=1.2.6.25.900

Install the SDK from the link on the page, but you'll need a recent Java SDK as well before you can run it. Get the latter from http://java.sun.com

Just bear in mind that this is an *emulator*. Games that run perfectly on the mobile may have problems on the PC, and vice versa.

Happy Emulating!

DAP is Digital Audio Player. It's a Java applet that'll let you play back sound files, a solid choice for those who don't want to use the Sounds menu or iTunes.

Snake is referring to increasing the volume level on the phone. It's a commonly done modification. Helps if you're having trouble hearing during a call and the volume has already been maxed out.

What do you do after you've downloaded something? Naturally, give it a shot. See what's inside, install it.

Any way to play games full screen, without the status bar on top? Some games do not resize well and extend below the bottom of screen.

Also, if I want to create my own animated GIF for the screen saver, is there any restriction on no. of colours, frames, length etc?

i think that streaming video only is capable for 3G phones. WAP or EDGE phones cant support the speed. Correct me if im wrong

What are you trying to record from? A phone call? You can try using Dictaphone for voice recording, but it won't let you record phone conversations.

I am very interested in flashing my V3i to read Chinese and english. Yes, i found the language pack. And if i add this language pack, will it delete all my data in my phone? File name is R479_G_08.B4.34R_Lang0024_reflash_MOTOX

Anyway, my mp3 tones are about 25 secs and v3i lets me use that, no problem.

Remove the GPRS indicator icon
This will only keep the icons from displaying, it won't disable the actual service.

Download seem "0032_0001" go to offset "40" and uncheck bit "1", then go to offset "41" and uncheck bit "5", then go to offset "68" and uncheck bit "4" and finally go to offset "6B" and uncheck bit "5".


I can see a lot of offset 40 but when i go to bit manupulation, it seems that bit 1 already unchecked, then i wan to go offset 41 but there aren;t any 41. Please help me. Am i reading the wrong way?

Anyone know where I can get the IC charging chip changed at ?? - Not from Motorola as too expensive and cheaper to buy a new phone than repair..

My problem is when battery fully charged, battery will de-charge overnight.. Its not the battery..

thanks


Added on July 21, 2007, 12:23 pmHi All,

I just acquired a used Motorola V3

When turned on the keypad lights up and you can hear the startup etc however the screen remains blank.

I don't know what the firmware was initially but I flashed a monster pack hoping this may help - did not..

The firmware now is R374_G_OE_42.17R
GSMV3xxT674SWOD
Bootloader: 08:26

I have changed the LCD assembly (with 3 new ones to see if this was the problem) - no change. I have also changed the keypad flex ribbon with a new one - again no change.. Keypad lights up, hear the moto stat up sounds, but completely black screen.

Could it be a corrupt PDS or hardware related Huh

Please help
with thanks

Hey guys, i'm currently using a V3i but it seems that the phone is pretty laggy whenever i typed my SMS msgs or accessing the sub-menu from the main menu. Anyone can assist me to solve this problem?

Errr..... how do i check whether my V3i is installed with iTunes or not? I'm very new to Motorola phones as i was hooked to Nokia & SE all this while.

My V3i software version is R47A_G_08.D8.35R & DSP S/W Version is 63202000.

I just bought a Motorola RAZR v3xx.
Is the software for v3xx the same as motorola V3x?
The only skin i have is Indium and Disco, kinda bored with the skin now. So i wanna put newer and much more cooler skin in my phone. Any guide? or it is the same as the 1st guide for V3x?

**I'm using V3XX (Double X okay?), not V3x...

I purchased two RAZR phones over two years ago and have never had a problem with either of them. Technology moves too fast to keep up so comparing this phone to current phones is like comparing my laptop to my first tandy computer. My RAZR's did and have done everything I purchased them to do.

Nop, can't block any number. The restrict call function means that you can put/request a password in order to make certain call.

no USB settings?.. go n download Flash&backup latest version.. open the program n then connect the phone.. Automatically the phone will get into USB communication mode...

my recommendation: Flash New Firmware...Modded one would do..

whats your firmware?PM me
