Baseband flash for noobs????

Mine keeps failing as well. Running through the command prompt and it is just not working.

getting this in the error log:

Line: 865
ERROR: \\?\c:\program files\Motorola\RSD Lite\droidese53.sbf was not found.
File: X:\test_dev_usb\flash\code\flashdll\PST_FP_FlashFileIO.cpp

any ideas?

 

I have the .03P radio from the sbf and a custom bootanimation in /data/local. It works fine. It's just the Droid Midnight one.

 

Congradulations!!! After two days of failed attepts you percerviered. Glad to here it.

 

I'm on a quest now to get replace of the Motorola M at initial boot. The SBF's are a different size in ESE53 than previous ones like ERE25.

I'll figure it out somehow.

what are you using to extract the sbf?

 

Thanks man. This one really tested me, but I wasn't going to give up. Here is what I had to do....

1.) Uninstall the Motorola 4.2 drivers, and RSD Lite.
2.) Reboot PC and log with the Administrator account.
3.) Download the VZW_A855_ESE53_QSC6085BP_C_01.3E.03P_SW_UPDATE_01.SBF from the RapidShare link.
4.) Unblock the file in Windows Explorer.
5.) Unzip to RSD Lite folder and rename to ESE53.SBF
6.) Install the latest Motorola driver for 64 bit Windows 7, 4.5.
7.) Install RSD Lite.
8.) Run RSD Lite like normal.

The default Windows 7 application.

Er, explain?

I have an sbf here that I've been trying to tear apart and don't know how.

 

Oh, I thought you meant for unzipping after downloading from RS. Sorry.

I use SBF_Tool_E2_by_lucrece to pop it open and try to edit the 42 file. I am thinking something changed with ESE53 since editing that file makes RSD Lite fail on the update. You still get the boot image you want though.

Here is a link to SBF Tool:

Alright. Maybe my sbf is encrypted because I tried that tool and it blows up trying to open the sbf.

Thanks though.

 

How is it blowing up? Did you check file properties and make sure Win7 didn't "block" it? Which SBF are you using?

Of all the programs I use on this blasted Droid, SBF gives me the least amount of trouble.

Its the European 2.1 sbf for the Milestone. I'll post the error.
