When u flash haxoware 11rev30 do u keep your bootloader with p option ?

Bad_Ad84 · 01-03-09, 08:23 PM

if you are installing haxorware properly (i.e. not a 2mb dump) what ever bootloader you have will be kept.

if you are using a 2mb dump, you will have what ever bootloader the person who made the dump had.

if you happen to use a 2mb dump that doesnt have a p option bootloader, you can just goto the upgrade page on haxorware and install a p option bootloader from there.

i was going to install 11rev30 which is just over 1 mg dump i noticed u save it to 1, when using infinite you store to 0 and lose your bootloader at the moment the modem has no p option im about to softjtag the bootloader back on so starting from scratch.

Bad_Ad84 · 01-03-09, 08:42 PM

you only save to 0 with infinite if you are using a 2mb dump.

all 2mb dumps save to 0.

the file you are attempting to flash to the modem is just the firmware and wont touch the bootloader.
