    Default new program for unpacking EZX firmware available

    http://users.tpgi.com.au/adsloptd/srec.zip
    What you do is open the shx file (or a copy) with a hex editor, search for S0 (the start of the first s-record file) then remove the header (I have no knowledge of the header and cannot make the unpack program skip over or work with it)
    Then, you run my program passing it the headerless firmware file.
    It will display on the screen the names of each s-record.
    Because I dont have any way to parse the header, my program outputs the files with names like 1.bin, 2.bin etc (they correspond to the output s-record names).

    I was gonna use the s-record names for the filenames but that didnt work out

    This is an alternative to trying to get the s-record unpacked by starting to flash the phone and then stopping before it actualy writes anything.

    In the firmware I have examined (2 different "full" firmwares for the a780), 8.bin contains the root filesystem.

    Default Re: new program for unpacking EZX firmware available

    Hallo, some documents about the structure of shx files can be found here:
    http://www.leadergl.net/documenti/

    The docs are in Italian, I do not have much time to do full translations, but I can translate some interesting parts if needed.

    I want to point your attention on this document:
    http://www.leadergl.net/documenti/Mo...SHX%20File.pdf

    in which there is explained the structure of the shx header

    Hope this can be of any help.

    I have no motorola phone yet, but i'm trying to get an A780 here in Italy.

    Bye, dsy.
