L8star BM10 Mini Phone ROM Modification (MT6261) - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello,
I want to ask how difficult it would be to modify the ROM of the L8star BM10 Phone.
This phone has a Mediatek MT6261 SOC inside and a ROM size of about 5Mb. I want to add some Features to
the ROM but don´t know where I should begin. Would be nice if someone can help me.
I wanted to post the readed out firmware of the phone as .bin file, but it seems that this is not possible on XDA because I could not find a function for attach files.
Regards from Germany

Modifying the ROM

I've been reading the forum, and based on the information and the tools there I have been able to modify my extended ROM, which is great. Now of course I'd like to modify the main ROM as well, but despite the many hours I've spent searching the forum, I can't find the necessary information to do it. There's always something essential missing, something which probably is obvious to a programmer, but not to a normal user. As I've been able to modify the extended ROM, I guess I should be able to modify the main ROM too. Who can point me in the right direction?
from what i understand it's not even 100% possible with xda1 since people cant seem to make the extracted files back to a nbf file
and there are no tools that i know of that even extract the main rom from a xda2
As I understand it, when you upgrade the operating system, you're actually modifying the ROM. Some people here like to call it to "flash", I think, and there are a lot of messages about it in here. I just haven't found the information necessary to do it. I want to modify the ROM on my XDAII.
no the operating system is the rom which is in a eeprom in the device
when you flash the rom you replace the operating system with the new one
when you say modifying it mean more in the way of exchanging different files inside the rom
but if you just mean flashing the rom with a newer then here is a guide
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/HimalayaRomFlashing
What does EEP stand for? How many ROMs are there?
I've seen a ROM created here for the XDAI, containing more programs than what the devices normally come with. I would like to have a ROM on my XDAII containing the programs I use, so that I don't need to reinstall them every time the device is hard reset. Isn't this possible?
What does EEP stand for?

Click to collapse
huh what does EEP have to do with this ?
suppose it could stand for
Executive Excellence Publishing
or
European Environmental Press
how many roms there are i think there are 1.5 1.6 1.66 and 1.72
about extra programs then they are not! in the rom they are in the extended rom any CAB file you copy to the extented will install after automatic after a hardreset
you should take a look at the romkitchens ( specifically for xda1, but can be made for xda2 as well ).
and mkrom, and the other romtools
EEPROM stands for "electrically erasable programmable read only memory".
this is sort of the predecessor of flash memory.
"electrically erasable programmable read only memory" sounds like a contradiction, but thanks for that, it makes more sense than EEPROM.
What about all of us users who don't have a Unix machine? I suppose we're stuck with the original ROM then, and have to install our programs over and over again for every hard reset. Of course you can put a few of them in the extended ROM, but it becomes full too quickly and you're left with installing the rest of them manually.
well you can upgrade to a newer rom as they come out
like i have 1.66 but if i wanted 1.72 i could upgrade
about contradiction heh yeah suppose so but then if it was 100% always READ ONLY then it would be random was what in it as how the transistors randomly set when it was produced
A newer ROM wouldn't contain the programs I want.
no :/ but it could contain bug fixes for ms and radiostack and such
i suspect that extented rom was made so it would be easier for the phonecompanys' and other 3th party resellers to get programs preinstalled fast without having to mess around too much in the rom
this is at the cost of memory though
but then some programs dident like to be in the rom i believe here i mean if setting files were places in the rom aswell and the program could not write to the setting file
mkrom also works on cygwin under windows.
( now I also wrote this in the wiki page )
Isn't that just for XDA I?
it works for windows ce in general.
that doesn't mean that there is no work involved in getting it to work, but it is possible to make it work for the xda2. I use it to build custom roms for the devices we sell, that is why I wrote it in the first place.
What's cygwin?
How much space is there in the ROM to add extra programs? In the ROM that this forum developed for XDA I they added quite many programs from what I could see.

Thanks for that, Rudegar.
To Itsme: I don't mind the work, but it looks like its written for programmers and that if you're not a fairly skilled programmer, you wouldn't be able to do it.

lets open an audiovox 4100 section

i don’t see why we shouldn’t open a section for the 4100 here. A lot of the developments that goes on here also work on the 4100.
I have done some research on it and so far I found out that the ppc4100 use 2 file to flash the rom one is the boot and the other is the WM image just like the others do. Now both of those files are nb0 format and can be extracted with dumprom.exe which is available here. It can flashed back on the ppc4100 using a flash card to hold the image and triggering it by booting with the bootstrap.
Wish list
to edit the image file ( to change certain files)
to compile the extracted files from the rom ( to customize the rom with new programs or to custom update to a newer operating system )
what does anyone think?
u can change the press icon on the 4100 its located in a file called bobo.exe in the windows folder.
see? its almost the same there is very little change i think we need to sit down for a little while and think about how good this will do.
it will bring in more readers that would like to read about the 4100 thus u will generate more traffic that also will generate more donations
so pls i dont know how to get the athoraty's attentions here at least concider it
or comment
thanks
I am very intersted in the 4100 development as well.. I was hoping someone in here or maybe a few would be interested in sharing some knowledge and possible experience. I have done a lot of research and played around quite a bit with this over the last week using various XDA tools as well as hex editor, ect. If anyone would be interested in helping please post us here.
hey jr97ai. might as well start posting here maybe we will catch someone's attention and they will declare the ppc4100 a worthy of this site
---------------
the original rom files for the 4100 are the currunt morst recent update from at& however, both files are *.bn0 extention. as follows.
SP_E0402_230A.nb0
SP_K1112_230A.nb0
i recieved those files from audiovox a little while ago. jr97ai and myself have been working on this and have extracted the files out of the romfiles with the use of dumprom.exe. (great app by the way). i think jr97ai knows alot more about this than i do and can explain a little better.
i will attach the bootstrap rom file along with a letter that came with the cd that was sent from audiovox. i can attach the rom file as soon as i free up my bandwith
I have been playing around with mkrom and have been experiencing some problems. as it says on mkrom its not the most user friendly program. no its not, not at all, not even close. but i still try anyways lost but still trying.
if anyone can somehow point us to a direction it coul dbe verry helpful.
there might be a possibility tto use the exsisting xda WMse existing rom to use on the 4100. they seem to be similar. they do use the same operating windows after all.
well i tryed to post the rom file many times it didnt work. its uploaded in the ftp if someone can post it.
every time i try to post it shows this err.
Upload Error: Could not upload Attachment to ./files/sp_k1112_230a.rar
question to anyone who can answer.
to change the operating system from win2003 to 2003se wouldi need to change the bootstrap as well?
i am thinking i could use a nb1 and rename it to nb0 it should be the same.
if you would like to see a new section appear for the audiovox 4100 please post saying so. maybe that will gets omeone's attention.
we got 60 views and only 2 ppl have posted.
ok .. so the rom for the 4100 is in the xda ftp sire. the file is called SP_K1112_230A.rar under ppc 4100
ftp info

im working with audiovox ppc4100 , and if u wanna dump with rom for make permenent rill file and dont losse it when u make a hard reset ,,i think the best solution its when u replace rill u can make a completat backup in a sd card then when u have to make a hard reset u can restore your backup and all will work ok...by the way i have working well mms, photo contacts , npencil , ms money , etc.
not jsut the rilgsm
now that we are able to flash the rom to the ppc4100 i am thinking we could change the operationg system. i am running towards the wm2003 se . i am trying to look for a basic rom nb1 format so i can try to flash it.
i am thinkiing it will work but i am worried about the phone part of the ppc.
do u have any thoughts on this?
No ppc4100 folder, any help please!!!

i'm nt want run it with Haret.exe
iwant it standerd on my pocket
so the stuff your downloading doesnt sound like its made for the kaiser/vogue
in order to use that build on your phone you have to port it, how to do that is a question for a guy with a little more skill than me
Sticked in this forum there the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=680518 that simply guides you to install your preferred Android build in NAND i.e. fully replacing Windows Mobile.
Please, give your brain a rest and insert all the characters you eated... maybe someone will like to answer to you if he can understand your request without having to use a compressed slang dictionary
Don't forget this forum is a worldwide one so there are lots of people fighting with stranger language...

your phone is different. different hardware, etc, sensors and more, so most roms will not work, or it will boot and most things don't work.
hello, iam not stupid,
iam already tried , S5660 firmware, but there is no WIFI and BT drivers and also sensors drivers is differnet, nothing more
there is two ways( i mean)
1.give into korean firmware all languages, and all will work...
2.give into EUROPE firmware drivers for WIFI ( i know there is bcm4329 chip) , BT and also for sensors( sensors is not very important, because you can use mobile without rotation and works good)
i had all firmwares, opensource from Korean GIO(SHW-m290) and also there is a lot of custom firmwares for Europe GIO(s5660)
i mean it can work , but this need some good developer who can make it together, because i already tried system.rfs files , but i dont excatly know which files is language files or which files is drivers etc...

try stock rom for S5660
but dont use S5660 kernel. use SHW-M290 kernel.
then, look at
- /system/etc and /system/wifi on both rom. u'll know the different. and replace it
- replace sensor module from SHW-M290 rom. usually can found on /system/lib/hw
- if bluetooth still not working, try to replace /sytem/bin/hciattch and module for bluetooth. (on S5660: BCM2049C0_003.001.031.0088.0094.hcd) usually can found on /system/bin or /system/etc/firmware
hello mate , i cannot beleive somebody found
so i will try this today , and will leave result here, but i had one problem which file is kernel?
because in stock rom of both firmwares is just 8 files
recovery.img is just recovery
system.rfs there is all important things
boot.img
amms
arm11boot
mibib
oemsbl
qcsbl
also in s5660 rom in one file more CSC.rfs ( country soruce code)
i already tried make together some roms from these both but sometimes starts , sometimes not starts good
so this is reason why i ask somebody who can help me with this
from my meaning is good to replace just drivers in stock SHW-M290 rom
, because for example , all stock and custom roms working good on SHW-m290 exept wifi,BT and sensors
thanks again
Boot.img is kernel
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
without luck today my friend, tried, swh kernel on s6550 stock rom
also tried replace drivers, without any luck
do you know which file is language in system,rfs
many thanks
is there anybody to help? where i can found languages ?

afaik, language files is stored on application.
/system/etc can be found on system.rfs
you can mount it with loop option with linux
yes already checked, but there is no any like this file
SENSORS done
now iam on GIO pro 1,6 rom already replace some files,( system.rfs)
sensors, working good, all rom is like charm, just wifi and BT still cannot work
on s5660 rom is folder wifi on root of system.rfs, but on shw-m290s rom is no like this folder, just inside etc, but already replace all etc folder, also BT module and still error mesage on wifi turns on ...
stock roms

Please Mr. senior member, may you ....PLEASE...... share little bit more with us than few words from your graet wisdom? Because this is way over my knowledge.....
mate please i know root, but i dont exactly know how to export ? abd apk?
how it works ? is there any tutorial ? i really wanna to make working rom with multilanguage, cheers
Search xda or google on installing ADB.
If succesfully installed, you can open a command prompt
Start- execute - cmd.exe - type ADB - adb.exe starts -type adb devices for conection - then you need the commands, will give them when you come to this, just reply
