DESCRIPTIONS OF FILES NEEDED
FLASH FILES
To upgrade a Motorola phone, only one file (1FF) is needed. The 1FF
file includes: Core software, Language pack, Java pack and Flex file. In
some cases the different files need to be flashed separately.
The file format for Flash Files is SHX.
FLEX FILES
Usually it is not needed to flex the phone after flashing with a 1FF file
(see above). If a flexing is needed it shall be done after the flashing
procedure in order to activate the correct settings. The Flex File to use
is selected by the package number of the phone.
The file format for Flex Files is HS.
