I also had the same interest with u, right now i'm trying to use hex workshop to find the same string value for manufacturing date and "save as" and try to view the new flash file with nfree, but no luck for me, maybe some masters in this forum can tell us how exactly to this tweaking...work...work...try...try...

good luck,
s1emens:D :D :D

I've found a way to change lifetimer display. (Inspired by Dr. Bizar's "changing game high scores")
First, remember your lifetimer value. Mine was 9999:59
First, we export our eeprom as a file and we open it with hex workshop. Second, we write our lifetimer's first 4 digits (mine was 9999) as decimal value in hexworkshop's base converter and we get the hex value of it (9999 Dec = 0F27 Hex) and we reverse this value (0F27 -> 270F). Then we write our lifetimer's last 2 digits (mine was 59) as decimal value in hexworkshop's base converter and we get the hex value of it (59 Dec = 3B00 Hex). The last double zeros (00) are not important for us. We join two hex values (Example: 270F and 3B =270F3B) and we search this joined hex value (270F3B) in the file as hex and we get many instances. If we change all of these instances to 000000, so we get a "virgin" lifetimer :-)

Don't forget to backup your eeprom before doing this trick.
And sorry for my poor English, I'm still studying English :)

I did it just by reading my phones EEPROM and writing it back to phone :)
Didn't try it on other phones
