Tricks only : (i just want to share only) I have applied this things to my 3210v531 phone… using azyshell, nfree, hexworkshop and my full flash I have came up with this tricks… the works of “ice dragon” and “azywerks” inspired me to come up with this tricks… what I did was only to interchange the words or values. Example: I want to change the word “CALLING” to “NETWORK” during the call attemp. using the hexworkshop sw you can interchange the two. I choose the word “NETWORK” as a replacement to the word “CALLING” because both are 7-letter words and if I change the word “calling” to anything which is not a 7-letter word this will change the checksum of my full flash and can cause contact service… adding, deleting or replacing values will change the checksum of the flash… so, what I did was only to interchange (location) the values or words in order not to change the checksum…. This tricks was done at the address 00320000 to 00360000 of my full flash… using azyshell I have manage to split up my full flash to a 128kb size each. The reason why I split up the full flash in order for me not to write back the whole full flash to the phone instead at a certain address only where I made some changes, like in the case of my tricks which is at 00320000-00360000 so I will only flash at the start address 00320000….by the way, if this tricks was done or posted already or sound just a piece of **** pls. ignore this thing…. This is only for those who haven’t managed to search for the tricks like this in this forum if ever there is… and also I’m not a programmer this is only for fun… thanks to the help of azywerks and d_bug this two great guy had inspired me with regards to software...

 Trick #1: I interchange the words “Calling” and “Network”. So, every time I made a call the word “Network” will be displayed on the screen not the word “Calling”...

Trick #2.. “Message sent” and “Invalid shortcut”. I interchange only the word “Message” and “Invalid”…. “Invalid sent” will be displayed after a successful message sending… and every wrong shortcut “message shortcut” will be displayed…

Trick #3 ( for Philippine network only) “SMART Gold” and “GLOBE”. I interchange the words “smart” and “globe”… so, if I use simcard from globe network, it will display “SMART” (SMART will only came out if the phone doesn’t have any logo installed at globe network)… and the same will happen if you insert simcard from SMART network to the phone.. it will display “GLOBE Gold”.

 So, thats it only….. but you can still do a lot of tricks unless you didn’t change your checksum… you will know the checksum of your flash if you open it in hexworkshop ( I use version 3.11) then go to “TOOLS” menu select “GENERATE CHECKSUM” then at generate checksum window you can select the “checksum (16 bit)” then press “generate” button and at the lower part of the Hexworkshop window you will see the checksum generated. Every time you made changes on your flash pls always check the checksum for any changes… this tricks can kill your phone, so, be careful in flashing your phone…. And always make sure you have a good full backup of your phone… I’m not responsible if any bad things happen to your phone… I have only tested this tricks on a 3210v531 PPM “C” phone….. other model not yet……

AND also just this morning i tried to change some without changing the checksum but the phone goes CONTACT SERVICE....any one can explain why?
