View Full Version : Could sb help me repairing this EEPROM checksums of 3330 ??

I repaired the MCU PPM part. but the EEPROM part I have no idea how to do this <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> I tried the NFree13A3 but the prog does not found the eeprom section...<br />this eeprom is here : <a href="http://gsm54.free.fr/eep" target="_blank">http://gsm54.free.fr/eep</a>
Many Thanks

Hallo friend!<br />I am really very sorry...<br />but there is no way yet to repair your eeprom <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> <br />I can understand you 100%...how desperate you are!<br />I have also destroyed 3 phones in that way <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> <br />Since you wrote on the eeprom area,you can not correct it!!<br />The only way is imei rebuild,which can be done only by nokia!<br />If your phone is under warranty,maybe you can take it to a service center...<br />Sorry again <img src="frown.gif" border="0">
Thank you spawoolm for responding <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
the problem with my eeprom is that only few (may be no more than 10) bytes has changed (old value +1) I compared with my MCU part and the origicnal MCU part there is some bytes that changed (+1) I think evry ~ 1000 bytes, some time more (evry 30000).
that's why I think if I could recalculate chksum (like in NFree tool by viperbjk) I could repair my eeprom.<br />the vipperbjk tool does not found the eeprom part...

how were those bytes changed??what did you do?<br />in case that you don't have overwritten the whole eeprom area...i don't know if it is possible to repair it!<br />I don't know so many things...<br />But why don't you mail Brobble,who is a master for these topics?? <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> <br />He is a very good guy and he is always willing to help people in trouble! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0"> <br />Ask him kindly,to help you...
I did not want to mail directly to people may be they have not enough time.. <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> <br />but.. i'll try to ask Brobble, if he could help me...
PS: the byte was changed because, I think, my flasher.cfg was not correct so, the reading operation ganerates some errors (byte+1)
I checked your eeprom and it is OK! Both checksums are OK! I think, we can repair the phone! In some cases the PMM is faulty! That can occour to Contact Serice, too! We could swap PMM from any other 3330! I think we can repair your phone! No problem to mail me direct! :-) Nokia repairing is hobby for me! My help is for free!
Greetings MR...

You see how easy it was?<br />Brobble was willing to help me in the past,although he could not help in my case!But he always want to help! <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> <br />Just wish that you did not have a mirror image for your 3330.This has happened to me in the past!<br />Hi Brobble! <img src="wink.gif" border="0">
ThanX Brobble & spawoolm <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> <br />I repaired my phone<br />Brobble has confirmed me that my eeprom checksums were OK, even if there is same changes in it.<br />so,I concentrate my work on other problems... and the problem was in my flasher configuration....<br />Now the phone is working I flashed its original eeprom (however it is a little damaged <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> but chksums are ok) + MCU+PPM 4.16B and of corse an Autority ID calculation using the special free offer <img src="wink.gif" border="0"> (the original version was 4.30 and 2 locks so...)
