Just curious but is XP MOBILE a rip of Knok, just some loser with a hex editor or something? It seems identical to me guys! :rolleyes:

Well I know that the source it was on the Knok website (don't know what it is) and as for the lang no idea. Perhaps somebody else could help you.

If you want to call what XP Mobile did, 'Modifying the Program', he really just changed the 'models.cfg' file.

The originator of the program did have the source available but for the simple reason of things like that above, then on top if it people making it appear as if they wrote it, it is no longer available.

By the way its written in 'C'

Ok cheers for clearing it up

Well that takes the piss cos it would have been amazing to have full source and people can develop it

I know ofr a fact that PHONEDUDES you know about programming cos you answered some of my posts in developer section a while back

Recken you could post an open source VB6 application please?
I know its asking a lot, but just an extremely simple one that sends stuff to the fone and gets a simple response...

Please?

Well it seemed promising but this code is useless because it doesntinclude the two functions:

thex
pause

Without these im screwed, any ideas?

p.s. if i do compile it and get it working you'll be the first with a copy :)

add the sleep api, and replace pause with sleep, the thex is easy to do, just long winded

Mark

P.S. ill prob do it 2nite

Hi,

This helps?

Sub tch(z As String)
Form1.MSComm1.Output = z
End Sub

Sub thex(z As String)
Dim byt() As Byte
Dim buf1 As Variant
ReDim byt(Fix(Len(z) / 3))
j = 0
For i = 1 To Len(z) Step 3
Y = "&H" + Mid(z, i, 2)
byt(j) = Val(Y)
j = j + 1
Next i
buf1 = byt()
Form1.MSComm1.Output = buf1
End Sub

Sub pause(pas As Single)
start = Timer
Do Until Timer >= start + pas / 1000
DoEvents
Loop
End Sub

knok is too slow for flashing, can you make it more faster, atleast same speed as rolis.

the source code above isnt a flasher like knok

its a reader of fone info like software version and everyfin

it uses certain hex bytes sent to the fone to relay back info and do certain commands im no programming expert but using commands on www.flosys.com/tdma/ im sure people can write quite an impressive program with it. :D
