Request for radio.img of MZ601

[nikil511]

I am trying to convert a MZ600 to MZ601.
I assume there are no actual hardware differences, but only software.. and I have not found any sources/info proving otherwise...

I have allready fastboot-flashed system/user/boot/recovery of MZ601 Europe stock images, to my VZN MZ600 Xoom and everything works fine except the mobile-network ofcourse...
(btw SIM is working!)

So how can I flash the baseband to the European one ?
Is the radio.img all I need ?
In that case, can somebody send me one?

I have tryied a full EU firmware flash with RSDlite, but I get an error "Unable to retrieve initialization values from INI file." so I cant start flashing...

Any ideas?
Thanks

I saw in other thread you have gsm sbf, perhaps using sbf recalc or sbf depacker you can extract its radio image..

I thought the recovery / img files were on motorola's website now?

Thanks lesjaw , I will try..
(I did a search for sbf extractors but did not find those ones! )

Lothaen , motorola gives away the common partitions, (userdata/system/boot/recovery) and not the hardcore ones such as the radio one!

lesjaw, I tried both software. They both allow me to split files, from the SBF.
That results into 13 SMG files, which I assume are partitions (and something else?)

What format are these ? can I open them ? How do I identify the radio.img
is the IMG format same as SMG ?

MotoAndroidDepackerMono, has an option to extra radio.img, but thats from an update.zip, which I what I am trying to create

 

[lesjaw]

i see, honestly I never use those app, in sunday i'll give a shot..
btw, you can join #milestone-modding in freenode (irc), many of those members channel have good experience regarding sbf file..

good luck brother..

Any idea anyone, how to identify the radio image, from a SBF extract to SMG files ?
Once identified, can I use an SMG file as a "radio.img" ?

HMJ37 sbf

Motorola did just release a few days ago a new sbf for the MZ600 that is the full HMJ37 version. Here is the full file name out of the latest spreadsheet for anyone with RSD access:

VZW_MZ600_Signed_HMJ37_Signed_MDM6600BP_C_02.0F.00R_SW.combo.sbf

I think he needs an image from MZ601, not MZ600!

 

[nikil511]

its been quite some time, and have not yet found an answer to this problem!!..

attached is the export from the SBF file of MZ601
I asume one of these files, is the radio.img , correct ? which one is it?

Can I do a fastboot flash radio radio.img ,using one of these files!?

Is it safe to try with the user partition to confirm my theory ? (I can identify it, from the byte size)

I tried to open the images with unyaffs-x86-win and cygwin but I always get an error message "broken image file" even on motorola's official images, hence I've got something else wrong (?)

So many questions left unanswered for so long! and I though XOOM was for hardcore android users!

Are you sure that's from a MZ601 and not a Wi-Fi only MZ604 (see the "HUBBLE" and "WIFI" strings)?

You cannot fastboot flash the radio partition (which probably is called something like bpsw given this is a Motorola device). Given that these are proprietary firmware blobs, do not expect to get far assuming that these are yaffs/ext/whatever filesystem images.

 

[nikil511]

thisi is where i found the SBF
http://www.mod2xtreme.com/showthread.php?t=10571
so I assume it has the radio partition.

So if I can not extract it from the SBF, how are all these baseband update zip been constructed on all other tablets/phones ? why are there none for XOOM eventhout various baseband versions exist ?

 

[nikil511]

or this h.6.2 means that should be for mz604(wifi only) so it should contain no baseband image. ?

convert mz600 to mz601

hello all,
nikil511 , did you found any solution? i'd really like to convert my mz600 to mz601 !

 

[GhostOfTheNet]

concerning the sbf, because of the name we know it's from the wifi xoom.

but as info, the radio is cg5

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/everest/list.php here new full image
in amms_sec.mbn
we can find string for new firmware VTHUBBLE_N_01.100.07P
or in rdl1.smg ..

how to use it? or convert to .img in .zip file ?

 

[thenemis]

i do it
