TO FESTIN...
First of all thanks for the mail.
But I have two problems: 1) my mail server did not let me open the files because they were supposed to be virus infected and 2) when I visited the page you recomended for the Siemens SX1 SWUP Flasher the site kept giving me the same answer: "the requested URL ... was not found on this server"
So for the last time (i hope) please upload the SWUP Flasher here... I am really sorry.I know i am testing your patience but i really need it and i don't know where else to find it. Thank you very much for your time. Friendly,Kostas 21.



















swup
winswup
@Kostas21, PM me an emailaddress that can hold a 25mb file and I will send you the Siemens international FW15, service-flasher included.
I opened a new mail account. Here it is: raziel1799{at}yahoo.gr. Please send the files there...
I have already dowloaded the files you posted but i can not find how to use those two files. Please help!
(I have already followed the instructions included in "winswup" file but every time i get back a message saying "this speed is not possible at this com port"
Note that the phone is recognised by windows and it is in update mode...)
You have to tick the usb-port as the port to use. I send you the international FW15 in a minute. I told you you could only use the winswup and swup (dos-like) if you have seperate fw-files, which they have at Siemens service centers only, or use it to flash old FW versions back on the phone OVER newer FW-versions, which is NOT possible with the Siemens flasher/FW you get from the official Siemens site.
I've sent you the file split in 2, part 1 came back with the message your mailbox is full. That's odd, coz I sent it first, and part 2 did not give a failure notice so far. So I have been busy sendind the file to the econ-email adress at the university, the 21 mb file came back, The 2 over 10mb files came back, all with message exceeding mailboxlimit. Now I used the email you gave in the above post, part 1 11mb came back with the message "mailbox size exceeded". I did not get a failure notice on part 2! Do you have part 2 of the zipfile by now? Can I safely send part 1 of the zipfile now, it is a bummer when they do keep returning, including the 2x10 mb files, which give me failure notices about my own mailbox too, coz it can't hold 21 mb!
I have ticked usb1 as a port.(This is the port to which my phone is connected with my pc).
In my phone i had FW 12.In my pc i had FW10 and FW12.
I tried to use this program and go back to FW10 and see if it works but i got that message i already told you about.That progam seems to open only .bin files and i don't have any...
Before doing this i connected my phone through usb01 and turned it on while pressing the joystic in (update mode).
The phone had been recognised by windows. BUT THE WHOLE THING DID NOT WORK!
As for the mail i got part2... I chose yahoo! because it can store the most here in greece(1gb).
The problem is that the attachements must be up to 10 mb.So in order to send part 1 you must break it in two parts each of which must be less than 10mb...
I have deleted part 2 from my yahoo! mailbox so you can try sending part 1 again.
I 'll let you know if i get it...
Please send me instructions related to the program's use because the program's help does not work.
Thanx in advance,KOSTAS21
I'll break it up in 4 parts x 5mb, The one I will send you (put all in same folder (extract part 1 to extract all) is a official program, but for the International version, but with a built-in-service-flasher, that's why it will flash on all versions, benelux, greece, usa, whatever.
OK Thanks A LOT Festin. I'll let you know when i get them...
I got the files, extracted them and started the program. Then i choose the port and the phone is reckognised by the program ONLY when it is turned on (NOT in update mode). Then I press start or start and close. If skip pre-check is not ticked I get this message: "Could not Ping Mobile".
If skip pre-check is ticked I get this message: "Can't start Copro-Mode".
What should I do? I think that this program flashes only to FW15. IF I want to flash back to FW12 how can I do it? (Once more help does not work in the program).
Kostas do you speak German?

I attached an usb driver, needed for the winswup service flasher.
You have to start the program, your phone OFF, (with a full battery!!), connect the phone with the usb-cable, press the keystick down and hold it, and turn the phone on, now you are in the update-mode.
Now you should see:
"SX1 Software-Update
Connect USB cable and
start update software on PC"
windows will say "new usb device found" , make it browse to the attached and unpacked file for the driver.
Shutdown your antivirussoftware before the flash.
If this is done, you can go on with the update, look in the link above,
from "Der Flash-Vorgang" it is pretty clear with the pictures.
In the above link under "downloads" you can find the winswup FW's to flash back in case of a need to do so.
Thanks a lot festin,you 've been really helpfull! - I am much obliged. If you ever come to Crete (an island at the southern border of Greece), I will be happy to treat you a beer...
