HELP ASAP! Windows mod on v551

I have been doing the windows mobile blue mod on my v551.... I just dont understand this direction under the manual the files came with from xlr8

1. Before using P2KTools to upload the Windows XP Mobile files to their destination
directories, change each file's attribute to 70000 (writeable) before upload, then back
to their original attributes after upload.

So does this mean I HAVE TO change the attributes to 70000 BEFORE uping it to my phone? and then change it back to what ever it was AFTER upping to the phone?

If so, what program would I use to change the attributes of the files on my computer? I have p2ktools and p2kman... but they both seem to just change attributes ONLY on the phone.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

He is talking about the attributes that are on the phone!!

The files for the new windows mobile blue mod don't have attributes set to them the files on your phone do. just write the attributes down so when you write the new files over the old files to the phone you can put the old attribute numbers back on.

Thanks for the help... oh crap... i forgot to write down the old attributes... does anybody know the old attributes? for all files for the v551?

You know, it's hard writing any sort of documentation for bleeding-edge hacks because you can't just sum up specific (usable) instructions for someone who doesn't know what they're doing.

The best I could do with that readme.txt is to reference the first hofo threads that educated me.

Other than that...I'm just a hacker like everyone else who wants their phone to just look a little better...
