Don, i have a feeling this one is for you..
i have read this forum for sometime now to gain info about flashing my phone (E700)
So i have purchased the PC133LBE cable as recommended.
Have backed up my firmware using dumper 1.8 (well i think i have)
But i cant flash it back using downloader 3.3.
Heres what i did.
In dumper i selected the NOR function and everything went OK.
It created a Dump.txt in the Program directory.
I renamed this to.bin so i could browse it using januka's program.
but when i came to flash it back using download 3.3 it would have it.
"not enough sectors for this software" error came up.
I have also heard people mention switching your cable to D/L mode..?? (cant see this anywhere)
To get my phone working again i flashed a firmware from this site to my phone but now i have a different IMEI number and also my service (O2) has limited service.
Please can someone figure out what i did wrong.
PS.. how come when i use your firmware you have .bin files plus others..??
PduB

What gave you the "not enough sectors for this software" janukas software or downloader?
Your PCB133LBE is suppose to have a switch but if doesn't and its working it doesn't matter.
I mailled you about fixing your imei.
The .tfs file is the nand it contains the menu pictures, wallpapers, ringtones, java games and a few more.

Thanks for the quick response don.
The error came from the Downloader 3.3
Did i do right by renaming the dump.txt file..??
was i supposed to get any more files..??

How big was the Dump.txt? And you should of made a backup of the NAND to.

The dump.txt was around 16MB in size..
i heard that the Nand functionwasnt working onv1.8 so i skipped it..(foolish i know)
Can my Firmware be saved....
What is causing the limited service on my Sim Card..any ideas.?
Also im stuck with the software you emailed....asking for password at write imei stage.
Thanks for the great help so far.

Which firmware did you have when you bought the phone?
I think you imei is causing you the limited service thing. Try entering any thing as password 12345 or something like that.
