Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*

I did all my stuff in a hex editor,

Search for string E9 FD FF 00 in a hex editor, once you find that, delete everything before that and above out. and save it. this new file is now your OS.NB.Payload, you can use standard rom dumping tools to get all the files and everything out.


Search for ECEC (text) for the xip, it should be the second on. and the XIP should start with somethig like 75 2D 00 EA, I say search for the text cause that is always there, and on motorola the XIP start address is different.


Search for F8 AC 2C 9D E3 D4 2B 4D BD 30 91 6E D8 4F 31 DC This will be the imgfs start address.

so using those address you can get all of the files extracted and everything else. from there use standard tools to decompile everything.

Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*

I tried just about everyhing to create a custom firmware, all with the same result. Flashed it completely with MSU but didn't reboot. I used imgfs tools to extract/repack and used hypercore kitchen to build. I used XIP port to port XIP it was able to create it, but not able to extract it once created.

Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*

I have a co-worker with this phone and I was telling him to check this site for an WM6 upgrade ROM and it appears this is the closest thing to one being available right now. I wanted to encourage you to keep at it conflipper and appreciate the work that you are doing. Hopefully you are still making progress on this.

Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*

I'm still using my Sprint Moto Q, would love to have a better ROM for it and run WM 6.1, or at least 6.0. I'm considering getting a Touch Pro 2 when they come out, but really want to keep the slim phone as I carry it in my pocket. What I'd really like is the Diamond 2 or the Touch HD to come to Sprint too! Anyways, I've been thinking of trying to hold out until a good slim touch Tegra-based phone comes out, and upgrading my Q would help a lot in keeping me satisfied.

Thanks for your efforts con!

Re: Custom ROM on Motorola Q *Project*

grrr..... lets try this again

i am mobile right now, been spending the past week packing everything up and getting ready to move. so i have had little time to be on pc at all, kinda sucks. this is still on my list of things to do, and it will get to be done. there is one thing i learn young, and that is to not give up, once you start something you finish it. and so i will get this. and it will be sooner rather then later.

on a side note, vzw is getting diamond2, so im sure sprint will has well, i doubt one cdma carrier would get it and not another. so look forward to that.
