Flex T731/T720CDMA to Enable Java Games
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

I've been reading up on flexing and flashing in the Moto/Moto Modding forums and I'm very tempted to try to flash my T731 (aka T720 CDMA, that's the official info I got off the phone) to, once and for all, enable Java games that have been disabled by my service provider. I'd just like to know if anyone here already tried it out.

I'm taking this on as my project soon as I define:

#1 What my phone is
#2 What difference the t731 has compared to the t720/t721/t721c/t721q/etc
#3 What the hell I'm doing

:

I don't even know why the need to make the same phone (t720) into so many "different" sub-models, but hopefully it'll work.

Any info you have, or anyone else has, feel free to pipe it in.

Flexing/Flashing your phone will not do anything with regard to java....it will just mess it up. The CDMA version of the T720 uses the Qualcom chipset, which runs brew games. Java games are run off a different chipset. If you want to add games to the T720C, try flashing your phone with the Verizon firmware (available from brewbackups.com) through PST by doing a field update, and updating the "software" tab, then clicking on the red and white arrows. This will add Get It Now to your phone, and allow you to add games through the filesystem, using Bitpim (search google.com for the program). Groups.yahoo.com has many of the .mif files (games) available, just search for the LG VX4400 groups.

Hope this helps you guys add games to your phones!

yeah that's what i meant, but i'm hesitant to install a new FW onto my phone without having a backup of my original FW in case either the new one malfunctions or i need to bring my phone in to be serviced... am i just asking for too much?

Nah....you can flash down your phone, and if anything happens....bring it to your provider and they can reflash it up to the latest firmware probably, at least i think Verizon can do that.

the only problem is that i live in Canada and i'm with telus mobility, a CDMA provider. i'm afraid they would do something like void my warranty if they noticed that it's flashed with a VZW fw.

btw TT i really appreciate your patience here.

so like i was saying i guess i'm asking for the impossible since there's no way (that i know of) to either save a firmware off a phone or edit the flex file

Well...then check if you can find a brew folder using bitpim without changing the firmware. If you can, then try adding games....if not, then check if you can somehow figure out how to hex edit the verizon firmware and get the "Get It Now" file out of it so you can just add that to your phone and then get games.

I have the T720c through Alltell and its a pain in the ×××. I tried flashing with the vzw with no luck. Here is what I tried to do.

I opened up PST and started a new Field update file.
I loaded my flash file in the software part then hit the red/white circle
It first pops up a window telling me to power cycle my phone and try again
So I power down, and power up my phone, reconnect the cable,
hit ok and then it says
Unable to Suspend Phone, Please power cycle phone and try again
I then hit the restart phone button and it finds my phone but still cannot flash it, gives the same errors.
The only thing I can do with PST is get my phonebook from the phone, I can't touch anything else.

When I use gagin I can only see the structure, can't download or upload to/from the phone. I did delete the beach.gif though so I can delete ××××.

Do you think the firmware might be bocking my phone or something. I am new to this and read for many days decyphering the useless info from the good info. I got my phone to communicate with both Gagin and PST so I know that its not a setup problem or driver problem. Here are my current specs on the phone:

Software/Firmware: 1.2.22.44.BP
PRL Version: 1203
Technology: CDMA 1x

This blows goats, wtf is going on?

Yes it is.

I'm telling you!!!, I have a T720c "Java Powered", i have MotoGP, Breackout and football. Obviusly the way of "enable it is throught a firmware, I'm not sure but it might be only for South America. I Brought my cel on Ecuador, and as far as I'm concerned, it's available at Brasil too.

The version of my software is:

2.3.13.02P

I think the flex has nothing to do, because my flex version and brazilian's version is totally different.

I'm Totally sure. Also u can "upgrade" your T720c to T732 to enable the camera, but Java is missed (bad thing), it will work with Brew then.

If anybody could find the firmware for that version, It would be a great Discover.

Sorry for my english, but I'm from Peru.
