there is a unbranded version by rex http://www.iwant1.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Z500REX02.zip
 
Could someone please explain what the function and meaning of the following flashcontent is :

Boot Loader : ?
USB Boot : ?
MODEM Code : ?
SHP Rsrc1 : ?
SHP Rsrc2 : ?
SHP FileSys : ?

Can you mix them between different firmwares?
 
@Nicon thanks for posting this great tutorial, did flash a Z500 today and it worked like a Dream... *Tumbs up*

Tried this firmware and it works like a charm =) (so far)

Is there any software that one can use to modify firmwares for Z500 ??
 
Z500

Yes, you can mix firmwares. The only condition is MODEM and Rsrc1 be from the same firmware.

I don't recommend to flash neither of Boot files. You can use files from Z300.

For example, my actual firmware is a mix

Z300R3X01 Modem, rsrc1, rsrc2
Z500BUEG3 Filesys (due to include several games in demo version: Prince of persia, snowboard, ...)

So. What's the newest firmware for a Z500 nowadays ? =) the latest one i flashed was the Z500REX02 and that works like a charm =)
Though i've always wondered if there weren't meant to be some themeing capabilities in the software for this phone.
Any ideas about this ?

Thanks !
 
Just done a mates z500v with the 02 firmware and think have killed it, after multiloader had finished i unplugged and it turned off but didnt reboot, now wnt trn on, any suggestions??
 
Multiloader giv me some error.INCCORECT USB BOOT MIGHT LEAD TO SERIOS PRBLEM .dO YOU WANT TO DOWNLOAD USB BOOT.
 
Where can i get these files and what do i put into each section on the bootloader please.
 
Help! Flashed the z500 using the O2 UK file got confirmation from the multiloader after 15 mins, disconnected phone rebooted and it now says on one screen DOWNLOAD and main screen is just white - I have reflashed using vodafone spain and the z500mmeg1 with same results. No errors happened when downloading..... What have I done wrong? I also dont need to hold down the 9 key anymore to make the boot screen appear :-(

Thanks
