Member: 313122 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 137 | GUIDE: How to flash your F480 Tocco Hi, After searching for ages on google, I still can't seem to find a decent tutorial on how to flash my F480. However I've had bits of help from various people and I've put this little guide together. Worked a treat with my phone. Having said that after trying this guide I accept absolutely no responsibility for your phone being dmaaged or 'bricked' in anyway. Here's what I did: Downloading the software: First off you need to download the firmware you want and then Multiloader V5.33 which is the program you're going to be using to flash your phone. Quote:
Preparing your phone: I am assuming here that you've already installed Samsung PC Studio and it works fine with your supplied USB cable. NOTE: Flashing your phone will delete all your contacts, calender, settings ringtones etc. You probably want to back up all your files and contacts. I recommend syncing your contacts etc. with Samsung PC Studio and copying over your files on your phone to your memory card or PC (your memory card will not be touched). Once that's done remove any memory card you may have and then remove the SIM card. Put you battery back in. Your phone shoul be off at this point. Hold down the 'Volume down' key (The bottom rocker button on the left side of your phone) and the camera button and press the power on button. Your phone should start up into a wierd screen with downloader v.5.32 or something and some boxes. It's now ready to be flashed. Using Multiloader: Open multiloader. It should look something like this without all the settings selected (The middle section should be blank!): Quote:
Then press the AMSS button on the left side and browse to the firmware files you want to flash (unzip/rar them as necessary). Go to the binary folder and then select amss_compressed. Do the same for Rsrc1,Rsrc2 and FSS selecting the appropiate files as shown in the above pic. You should now be ready to flash. Connect your phone to your comp and then click download in multiloader. AT THIS POINT DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE/DETATCH THE CABLE/SWITCH OFF YOUR COMP. Your phone should have a status indicator with percentages and this should be reflected in multiloader. The process should tkae about 5 minutes thgouh I'm not sure about that. Once it's done your phone will restart twice by itself. Once this is done it should start up as normal into the widgets page. It's now complete. Congratulations on flashing your phone. You can now repalce your SIM and Memory card and set up your phone the way you like it. Hope this helped. Feel free to steal this tutorial/post it on another website etc., I made it in a few minutes and couldn't care less if you take credit for it. | ||
