Nokia BB5 BB5 Erase File

Method How To Erase BB5 Phones,even there is no option or button in all boxes programs to make erase,

Names erase files also for JAF BOX :
BB5Erase_8MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_8MBrap
BB5Erase_16MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_16MBrap
BB5Erase_32MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_32MBrap


6 files for erase BB5 phones with following orders :
BB5Erase_8MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_8MBrap
BB5Erase_16MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_16MBrap
BB5Erase_32MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_32MBrap

Let Start The Explanation:

BB5Erase_8MBrap.bin used to fully erase the first 8mb of the rap3 flash inculading eeprom .

BB5Erase_EE_8MBrap.bin used to erase only eeprom located at the end of rap3 flash
the same usage is for 16 and 32mb erase files

MT-BOX Team said :

bb5erase_8mbrap
bb5erase_16mbrap
bb5erase_32mbrap

This 3 files erase full Rap3g

BB5Erase_EE_8MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_16MBrap
BB5Erase_EE_32MBrap

This 3 files erase only EEPROM on Rap3g.


How do I know which file size area should I use with the phone?
ok For example N73 :

ON JAF we have those address:
Erasing cmt zone 00080000 - 00731421 ...
Erasing cmt zone 00000000 - 0005FFFF ...
Erasing cmt zone 001E0000 - 001FFFFF ...
Erasing cmt zone 00880000 - 00FEFFFF ...


OK which one is high ?

Highest Address of a Rap is : 00FEFFFF

This is not a full size flashes can be 8,16,32,64,128.......MB

00FEFFFF is small under 00FFFFFF , Then our flash in N73 00FFFFFF HEX Address . Now we need to convert it to MB Size .
Open windows Calculator go to menu view then scientific then choose HEX

Write 00FFFFFF Click on a DEC and you will get a result : 16777215 it's in bytes . this divide on 1024 and you have result in KB ~16348 So now your Size are 16 MB

Note : CMT is Rap3g , Same name . Also all these file must flash it in MCU Window .

Convert Your Nokia BB5 Phones (850/950 mhz to 900/1800 mhz) Without Opening Phone!

It really is a new and very important , Since very soon we converted to a regular phone but we have to edit Phone Hard Ware.

Now You can Convert it SW without opening phone !!!
How can we turn the phones serial number beginning with (0) or (010) to (3) or (355) It is indeed strange!! But, as Dejan Kaljevic said :


Quote:
It seems that everybody know how it works, but not Nokia, since they didn'tchange anything in they SW to prevent that.
Then again, maybe not!
Why they left BIG hole in SP security...?..


Therefore, they left a big hole in protect!!

Well ; Let me tell you how it can be converted !! again for whole Guar-Forum members !!
Steps :

- Make sure that the area PA_SL have been confirmed as 100% correct. it mean : Default SN type , LOCK STATUS it contain of (CONFIG KEY ,Provider and Key Code count).
- If your phone have a SP data Corrupted , you need to repair it firs.
- If your phone has imei :1234567654321? you need to restore it by RPL file .
- Make CRT 308.1 pm field. and CRT BKP RPL and save it in your PC.
- Unlock your phone via any tool or codes BB5 TRK , BB5king ... etc.
- After unlock your phone , So now your phone is powered on but without service.
- Write RPL file attached .like 5200b write file attached named (5200BandChange.rpl )
- Done , Now your phone is regular and it will be ok and has 100% service network.


NB :Phone supported to convert from imei(0) or (010) to imei (3) or (35x) for example :5200b to 5200 regular or 5300b to 5300 regular etc
