Hi Mr. From_Vanov,

Your program looks very professional.

THAT tool is great man......
By uploading text from one phone model to another doesnt work(all texts are messed up) but if u manually edit the output text file it works 100%.....
But a really big work to translate all stuff in the ppm pack language......
thats really nice tool.........
You can even put longer words if u want.....no problem at all.......
ex. instead of INSERT SIM CARD you can put INSERT YOUR FUCKING CARD with no problem...tested....

Have you tried to change too many words in the ppm flash?

Hello everybody!

Thanks for your responses.

to Abe:
Thanks for your praise :grin:. You, of course, cannot directly use text from another phone flash, because indexes are not the same in different flashes (see the http://www.geocities.com/nok5rev/ppm_text.html). If you want to for example, add new language, tou have to respect these indexes.

to Visar:
I added Czech lang. to flash N6150 P5.23. It was almost simple :grin: . I used any old flash with both Czech and Englisch languages. Phrases on equal indexes makes something like "dictionary" from English phrases to Czech phrases. Further is no problem to link English phrases from new flash to Czech phrases through "dictionary" and resolve any multiple links (in my case about 100 - Czech language has more words :smile: ) and add any not contained phrases (only about 10!! in my case). For translating I used Access(for SQL) and Excel. Thats all. :grin:

There is newest version. Pls. see About box for list of (minor)changes.

I'am looking for information about formats of TEXT chunk! PPM Manager has implemented only this one described at pages above. Nokia uses at least two another formats ...

>>open a flash from 3310 424 20 40

The 20 40 is the error, only use a full flash of mcu & ppm data.

For the 3310-524 it should be 20.0000 until 3D.0000

It writes the corrected ppm checksum to the last 4 bytes of the file, it doesn't check if it is the true location.

To Mr. Visar Mato,

I must admit I didn't test the program for its purpose of ppm changing myself.

I did only test it's calculations on a flash file I did change myself manually.

I think I never suggested that it worked.

About Ur problem, maybe it will help if U ask questions in a polite way.
Writing in big characters doesn't seem nice to me.

That word {insert sim card} you can change with Flashed {in download section}open a mcu ppm flash,find the word/edit/save and start ppm fixer/upload the flash/update faid and its ok/but if you modify more words the phone has no signal

Use ppmfixer and then flash.
If no signal appears then use faid mbus updater and everything works again.
Let hope that tek makes new version of it and we get to support orginal datacable.

You can also change all ringtones with tonepack that will uploaded to downloadarea someday or load it at nokiaguru.gsmsearch.com

tried on a 3330. Exported to text file, edited a few words, saved and flashed back to phone. But just got message "Contact Service"

Anyone else had this problem?

Hello everybody!

Please, if anybody has any problem with any flash, please sent me it with description.

Also if anybody has successfully changed text or melody, let me know the version and lanfuage pack. Thanks.

Some words about text changing:
--PPM Manager DOES NOT able to export/import text chunk with MULTI BYTE format!!!! You can simply test if yout flash has multibyte chunk. If you export text and import without changes you must get the same CRC of TEXT chunk.
If you can see texts in text file in normal, it is good. If would you like to import changed text you have to delete all languages which are not correctly exported (remove them from .txt and also from .pck file)!
Uh. My English is ...
Is there anybody who wants to be helpful and write short help for this prog?

to ynwa: Pls. send me the (original) flash and text file.

BR, From_Vanov

I'd like to ask, is there a newer version of this program ?
It doesn't calculate PPM checksums properly on 3330 4.50 flashfiles.

Or maybe someone know how to calculate that checksum or have any other tool, which works... ?
