[gentoo-user] [OT] Flashing an old NOKIA 3310 with Linux?
Hi, I got my hands on one of the well known NOKIA 3310 (2001...not the new NOKIA 3310 ones) phones. It seems the previous seller has branded the phone with his own firmware and I want to reflash the original NOKIA firmware onto it again...if I have a true phone I want the "real true" phone...you know ... :) There are some flasher out therewhich are compatible to windows versions, which are long forgotten. As far as my investigations in this case :) has reached: The phone needs what they call it a "DCT-3 flasher". Does anyone has knowledge in handling this wonderful retro peace of technique this way and knows a linux compatible flasher for the firmware? Thanks a lot in advance ! Cheers! Meino
