Nokia E55 031.012 HACKED - RomPatcher 2.3

This tutorial will explain how to hack your Nokia E55 with the latest firmware on it 031.012. This might be an opportunity to upgrade to the latest firmware version available right now (11.02.2010) and is compatible with the previous firmware version 022.009 (not tested).  This method uses a firmware “patch”.

Windows 7  users stay away, cause the drivers won’t work correctly.

To get this job over with you need the folowing:

1. Pheonix Service Suite. Get it from here: http://rs724.rapidshare.com/files/330727428/Phoenix_Service_Software_2009.34.14.40684_cracked.exe

2. The firmware files for your E55 with the right version. Get it from here: http://rs420.rapidshare.com/files/344909090/rm482_CareDP_3.0_EUROPE_E55.exe

3. The firmware patch 031.012 which you will be flashing. Download it from here: http://www.2shared.com/file/11299491/a73b26ac/rm482-031012-fw-patch.html

Once all of these files are downloaded, you must install Pheonix and the Firmware files for you mobile phone. DO SO! The proces is not complicated.

Just remember to close any other nokia software before running Pheonix, because it may interfere with the flashing process and you don’t want to brick your phone.

After successfully installing Pheonix and Nokia E55 Firmware package we do the following:

1. We run Phoenix (All Programs > Phoenix > Phoenix)

2. Make sure your phone is connected via USB and PC Suite mode is enabled.

Step3: Find you device

3. We are now in Phoenix main menu, we go to File > Scan product… , after which if the operation is successful, the top menu and the status bar should look like in image from step 4 ( see below).

4.  Now the product is recognized and loaded by Phoenix and we are going to prepare to flash the phone with the latest version of firmware available right now and at the same time HACK IT using the firmware patch which will automatically install RomPatcher+ 2.3. Next you click Flashing > Firmware Update from the top menu after which a dialog box should pop-out.  See the image below:

Step4: Flashing e55

5. Now the flashing dialog will have poped-out listing give you multiple choices. First you must select the firmware version you want to flash (in case you don’t want to flash the auto-selected firmware). You can do so by clicking the
” … ” buton which will bring a list with all the available firmware for your model. Pick one and click OK

Step 5: Select your firmware

6. After selecting our wanted firmware for flashing we click Options > Add and we look for our patch (the one in the archive, you must unrar it first to use it :)) ). It’s the one with the similar name with a file in the flash list (take a good look at before clicking Add): rm482_031.012_U000.000_prd.uda.fpsx or rm482_031.012_U001.000_prd.uda.fpsx (BTW: both are the same)

After selecting the patch file to flash, set the Type to: Content and tick Refurbish while you are in the Add file dialog box.

The flash file list should look like in the image below:

Step 6: Files to flash

Now we click OK to close the dialog box and we get ready to flash the mobile phone.

7. Now click Refurbish and wait for Pheonix to finish flashing your phone. The output should be like in the image below:

Final step: Flash complete

Doesn’t matter if you get warning or error during the flash. If you brick your phone IT CAN BE FIXED!

Click OK in the dialog, Close in the flash box, and close Phoenix, remove the data cable from your phone, configure it and go to Application > RomPatcher+ and activate the available patches.

Here is the result:

Proof: Latest firmware

Proof: RomPatcher+ Working

PSSS: I think this patch works on almost any symbian mobile phone

CHEERS TO ME

BS.Player PRO 2.43 Playback crash

I noticed that BS.Player Pro (version 2.43 in my case) crashes everytime i start the playback of a movie (mainly). I googled and found no answer or fix to this problem, because the no debug error/send error log windows showed up and I’m not even know if the developers are aware of this bug, but here is the fix.  This usually happened when there was no subtitle that BS.Player could load from the video directory.

The main problem in this case is the autoload option for subtitles.

To disable this option (goes by the name Online subtitles):

1. Press CTRL + P to bring up the Preferences window (also you can right click on the player > Options > Preferences…)
2. Go to the Subtitles menu in the left box
3. Select the Online subtitles tab
4. Untick “Enable online subtitles”

Thats all. I have not found a fix yet for this issue, but the one I have posted did the job for me and I hope it works for you also.

Enjoy.
