V170 Conversion 850Mhz/1900Mhz to 900Mhz/1800Mhz

Original State of SAW Filters

Changing 2 SAW Filters to Capacitors came from 8210,3210,3530 and add to resistor if
needed..for me i add 2 additional resistor and 1 capacitor in the vacant filter (Middle)
NOTE:
if your HW is OLD one no need to cut the TP or Remove the N1 Ball fron the CPU...Just unlock
it or if you want to debrand it Flash it,In case Your HW is New or Tracfone Here is the TP:

This TP Is for OLD Tracfone (Cut Track)..This TP is came from Infinity Support,Try this
first Before you Remove the N1 Ball..
HOW:
1: Removing The CPU,and after removing Remove N1 ball and Mount it Back to the Board.after
mounting,You can Flash and Unlock the Unit.and after flashing you must remove again the CPU
and Mount it back together with the N1 ball.
2: Use Number 0 string of a guitar and Hook it to the N1 Ball,and Reheat the portion of the
CPU,near the N1 ball and Pull it out gently,and if you remove the N1 ball,Now you can Flash
and Unlock the UNit and After its Done,Put a llittle Ball of lead in Between the N1 ball and
reheat Gently the CPU untill it molds itself...Very Risky but thats the only Way...
Then flash the unit..
1: Open your Infinity Shell and Click Motorola,Click V170 Model...Check which com ports will
You use:USB to Serial or Com1.( Note Sometimes you will encounter errors on your USB to
Serial because of your Latency Time..the default is 16 change the Value to 8)
Check Repair Mode,Check Soft Restore and Check try to Power-on After Flash.Use X60 cales
came from your infinity Box..or T191 Cables.
2: Click the Flash Tab,and Flash it with V172 Firmware..(tested no errors)Check main select
main Firmware,Laguage and Flex..with Smart Write and Safe Mode..
Here are the Firmware,Unrar it:

3: After Successfully Flashing the unit it will Power Up itself,it means its working
already,But after powering it off it will not power again,Thats Normal.
4: Click Service Tab, SP-Unlock.After Unlock User/Phone/Lockcode must be reset in case.after
all is done.The unit is Not powering On.because the TP (Cut Track)or the N1 ball is still
not bring back to its original State.Which is Connect Cut Track and remount N1 Ball..
5: Reminder:
