SHARP GX-15 questions - GSM-Forum

blueangel · 11-22-2004, 15:41

Hi All!

I bought a GX-15 in Portugal (from Vodafone). And I can't upload to my mobile jar and/or jad files. How can I do it? And how can I erase the 'Live!' menu from it???

Please answer! Many thanks!

There is no way (besides WAP) to upload games, etc.
And you can't erase the "Live" menu.

goci · 11-25-2004, 13:37

I think if the firmware is flashed it is possible to get rid of the vodafone s.h.i.t.t.y. menus

I am trying with my GX15...

Will put a small webpage saying how etc etc after I do it on:

http://i.don-t.servebeer.com/sharpgx15

At the moment there are just the files present...

I just hope it works

FreaX · 11-25-2004, 16:45

@goci: The problem is that you need a flash-file with non Vodafone stuff.
I don't know such a file for GX15.

klurosu · 11-25-2004, 17:01

The only way to unlock the "live buton" is editing the WAP.options

Axes · 11-25-2004, 17:05

yeah sure, or changing soft

klurosu · 11-25-2004, 17:16

FOR JAVA GAMES do this:
Options-permiso-web access and selecct NO... no more connections to wap service for update or download games...muhahahahaha

NO MORE LIVE BUTTON do this:
Settings-Network-Wap settings (copy vodafone option)... and...
ypou must change the following:
Connection type-------gprs
gprs settings---APN--type "unknow", name-------"unknow", password---"unknow" l

ALL DONE MATE!!!

I am almost sure that this flash file (A24-007-0213-GX15U.MOT) is vodafone-free.

What is needed to flash this phone? I have the following items I am sharing.

-Sharp Product Support Tool Software (v1.3)
-The GX15 Upgrading tool
-Flash file (A24-007-0213-GX15U.MOT) which I think is vodafone-crap free

Can be downloaded from http://i.don-t.servebeer.com/sharpgx15

Of course a data cable is needed to flash the firmware.
Now... I heard that a data charging cable (i.e. a data cable that charges the mobile at the same time) is needed to complete this operation. Is that cable necessary or is it possible to do it by a common USB Data Cable?

Is there anyone who has succeded in flashing this mobile and knows something regarding the cable?
Please contribute to this post if you can help.

I don't know if you need a charging cable.
But if yes, no problem:
You can modify a normal USB-cable to work as charging cable.
Just connect pin 2 (data +) and pin 4 (charger +).
I did this on my cable and now it charges when it's connect to the PC ;-)

You need the Upgrading Tool, Data Cablea and of course the Flashfile. You don´t have to install the whole spst soft

goci · 11-29-2004, 09:03

Ok... we got the software to flash this thing...
I still haven't got a clear illustration of the USB to GX15 data & charging cable connections...

The cable should be able to transfer data and charge the mobile at the same time. Anyone has got a good illustration please?

goci · 12-11-2004, 17:19

Finally I have managed to flash the phone with the following 3 firmwares:
-A02-007-0185-GX15.MOT
-A02-007-0186-GX15.MOT
-A24-007-0213-GX15U.MOT
ALL OF THESE 3 ARE VODAFONE FIRMWARES! (doh'!)

To flash it, the following things are needed:

-The GX15 Upgrading Tool
-USB Data Cable with charging function
-A .MOT Firmware File
-And the servicing manual for instructions if needed

How it is done?

-Install The GX15 Upgrading Tool Software and the GX15 Upgrading Tool USB Driver for the USB data cable.
-Switch off phone, remove battery and SIM Card
-Connect it via USB
-Run The Upgrading Tool and choose the location of the .MOT firmware file
-Tick the Port used by the system for USB. Tick Program Download and File System Initialize.
-Click Start Loading Flash

For other technical info you may have a look at the Sharp GX15 Servicing Manual

NOW... Anyone who finds flash files for this mobile other than the 3 mentioned above and posts their location will be greatly appreciated.
