This is how I converted my s45 into s45i 100% succesfully - GSM-Forum

Safrane · 06-06-2003, 15:04

Well, first of all, I have to say I backuped eeproms (1F0000 and 5F0000) with UNISIEMENS, but they were no necessary.

First of all, I flashed my phone with flash-s45i-040510.zip, which can be downloaded HERE.

After that, phone buzzed, did not work properly. I desperated. But somewhere I don't remember where, I found a proggy which saved my life. You can download it HERE .

Procedure is very simple: Run S45i Activator, read phone (press READ PATCHES) and check out which phone values are NOT OK (right window). Tick in left boxes those values which are NOT OK and press WRITE PATCHES. You don't need to check boxes of things that are OK.

After a while, phone should be working. If not, unlock phone, and if still does not work, run S45i Activator again and read/write patches again.

Good luck and best regards!

That's exactly what I did, only that in order to upgrade the S45 (from FW30 lg4), I had to flash it with a full flash (you can find these on www.multifund.de), then I flashed it with S45i_040408 (found at gsmtricks.com) and then used S45iActivator with S45Tools1.2beta to patch and unlock the phone.

One question however: my phone has a C289 flash, does anyone know if the process is different for mobiles with CE20 flash chips? I've read some things in other topics in this forum, but I can't come to a clear conclusion.

Oh, and SM45Tools 1.2beta fails to read and backup the ROM from my mobile (doing a full flash backup), why?

Thnx in advance.

To backup eeprom, use UNISIEMENS, it works 100% for me!

Best regards.

This way is very simple and absolutely success!

Upgrade S/ME45 any flash type to S45i.......... :
http://www.gsm-iq2000.com/siemens/sw...45i_040101.zip

1. Make full backup of your phone
2. Flash your phone with winswup S45i v04.......
3. Depending what kind of model you have S45 or ME45 take corresponding file
for S45 http://www.o45m.ru/program/290000x050000_s.zip
for ME45 http://www.o45m.ru/program/290000x050000_m.zip
4. Take s/me45Tools and flash this file at addr: 290000 and size: 050000
Download SME45 TOOL http://se-ed.net/x45/software/sme45tool.zip
5. In s/me45Tools go to IMEI, readphone first and press UNLOCK
6. Now you have S45i with all your S/ME45 settings, no problem with battery and so on

New functions on S45i :
- Email client for 5 post account (POP3,SMTP . . .)
- New game Race Ace
- Faster synchronization contacs and calendar
- Unlock keyboard is easy,we no need confirm
- Listing all amount lose calling for one number
- Function Hands Free is working too in dictafon
- Many optional functions for "Hot keys"
- Memory Flex is possible erasing at once (formatting)

I am success too!

I already upgrade my ME45 with firmware S45i-040701 and use S45i activator ver 1.027... read patches first, click all item on the left side, write patches and wait, exit service mode, remove batere for a view second, turn on my mobile without problem!

yul · 07-05-2003, 19:59

Use service cable, not data cable.

Windows XP?
I was getting crazy trying to do this in XP (Celeron 1700). Then I tried on another machine with Win98 (Celeron 433) and it worked PERFECTLY!

Good luck...
