INTRODUCTION

RSD Lite is used for software upgrade (flashing) and feature

downloaded from MSSS.

RSD Lite also supports software upgrading of several phones at the

same time, called Multiflash. Multiflash support up to 127 phones by

using an external USB hub which reduces the time to upgrade phones

DESCRIPTIONS OF FILES NEEDED

FLASH FILES

To upgrade a Motorola phone, only one file (1FF) is needed. The 1FF

file includes: Core software, Language pack, Java pack and Flex file. In

some cases the different files need to be flashed separately.

The file format for Flash Files is SHX.

FLEX FILES

Usually it is not needed to flex the phone after flashing with a 1FF file

(see above). If a flexing is needed it shall be done after the flashing

procedure in order to activate the correct settings. The Flex File to use

is selected by the package number of the phone.

The file format for Flex Files is HS.
