[Guide] Flashing Linux Motorola's with RSD Lite Versions

[Av3LaR]

The BEST way to flash the Linux Motorola's is to use RSD Lite higher than 4.1

This is the way i Flash my Linux Motorola's
i would not recommend using Flash&Back on any MagX phone

(try to avoid RSD Lite 4.1)
Please DO NOT request ANY RSD Lite
To find the NEWEST RSD Lite search Google or 4Shared


Next, install the NEWEST Motorola Drivers from MotoDev (http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/USB_Drivers/)

Now, choose the NEWEST Reflash, that allows External Skin to be added,



Flashing,

Once you have the above 3 your ready to Flash your Motorola, and your Battery is FULLY charged.

Connect the phone to the PC with the USB cable, making sure the phone is in Modem Mode,
(this can be checked by going, Main Menu> Settings> Connections> USB Settings> then select Modem.)

Now start RSD Lite.
wait for it to find your Phone,

If your having troubles with Windows
Seven/Vista

You need to copy the firmware you want to flash into the RSDlite directory in your program files folder.
Make sure you are in bootloader mode first.
Then, open command prompt and "cd" to the RSDlite directory

eg:

cd C:
cd Program Files
cd motorola
cd RSDlite


now for the flashing type:

SDL.exe -f xxxx.sbf -t 2

where xxxx.sbf is the firmware you are flashing to the phone.
flashing will begin shortly afterwards.
