Here i will explain in step to save your time and optimize the job when using mobileEx, specially with 'Nokia Tool'.

- Always select correct 'Generation' first before any operation.
- Always Use "Scan" if you're working with non dead phone, this will help mobileEx to use 'correct' spesific setting for any phones attached to box.
- Make sure phone is in correct mode for any FBUS/NON flashing operation,
example: in Tuning & Testing page phone should be in TEST MODE, else will be best if the phone is in LOCAL MODE.Do phone mode change manually if needed.
- For any operation, specially newly released phones, its better to save its security data (RPL + full pm) first before you do anything else.
- if you noticed, there was a differences of flashing speed between FlashID/Manufacturer
the option 'Fast flash' should not be enabled for flash chip "INTEL"
- if you need only to change the language, select file setting as NORMAL. then check 'Language Only" should do the job
- "Safe Flash" will save RPL backup from flash mode(even a DEAD one except ASIC11 phones).
- Use "Restart" button every time you need to refresh the connection or restart the phone.
- Use "..."(Read Phone Mode) button at the right of the phone mode combo to check if the phone if connected and synchronized.
- mobileEx loads your selected "Products" folder to the phone model list, so make sure you have set the correct folder ("Options").

Correct Generation will be automaticaly selected when you Scan the phone, for example: if you have DCT4 phone connected but active generation is BB5, after you scan product generation will be set to "DCT4"(Not applicable for DEAD phone')
- Auto create DP folder if not exist
New Folder in "Products\<PHONE_TYPE>" will be made, if not exists.

Default is 5000 ms= 5 second.
Less=Faster respond but might have problem with phone which has longer booting time(WD2/BB5)

• 1. Always select correct 'Generation' first before any operation.

• 2. Always Use "Scan" if you're working with non dead phone, this will help mobileEx to use 'correct' spesific setting for any phones attached to box.

• 3. "BUS Check" with setting safe flash ticked, will perform boot squence, display boot information (upp id, flash manufacture, flash address) and automatically safe phone's rpl.

• 4. Make sure phone is in correct mode for any FBUS/NON flashing operation,
  - example: in Tuning & Testing page, phone should be in TEST MODE, else will be best if the phone is in LOCAL MODE.
  Do phone mode change manually if needed.

• 5. When doing jobs on working phone, for any operation (add language, locks, etc), DCT4 and BB5, it is better to save its security data (RPL, certificate, pm, etc) first before you do anything else. Just in case...

• 6. If you noticed, there was a differences of flashing speed between FlashID/Manufacturer the option 'Fast flash' should not be enabled for "INTEL" flash chip.

• 7. If you need only to change the language, select file setting as NORMAL. then check 'Language Only"

• 8. "Safe Flash" will save RPL backup from flash mode, and currently NOT supported for ASIC type 11 phone, so dont be checked. For this phone please do a PM backup since RPL backup from flash mode not yet supported. All other DCT4 asic is supported. Yes, even the dead one.

• 9. Use "Restart" button every time you need to refresh the connection or restart the phone.

• 10. Unlock "Security Code" on all DCT4,DCT4PLUS(Asic 2),WD2, TIKU without loosing any user data(phonebook, msg, etc) even counter already blocked? Yes, it is possible using mobileEx. Just do a "BUS Check" and you will see "Master Code" , use this code as the security code(this code readed from the phone and 100% will work both for CDMA or GSM phones).
