Title: Cacko 3kb1 To Sharp Rom
Post by: xotica on November 29, 2005, 11:21:50 pm

Hi, this may have been covered before but... "How do you revert back to the sharp rom from cacko 3kb1 on the c3000."  I was crazy and I did not make a back up before flashing cacko.  Can a simple NAND restore ie. from the conics website, bring back the sharp rom?  Also, will I have to reinstall tetsu's kernel?

I would really like to keep cacko, but I am going back to Japan soon and need to install some Japanese language progams.  If only there was a way to install japanese fonts in to 3kb1 =).

Thx in advance for the help

hey, you have flashed to sharp rom 1.1 before you can have cacko 3kb1 installed on your Z

what you need to do is to flash to sharp rom 1.1 again and then use ok menu and reset the Z to factory state(just like what you've done to instal cacko, accpet that you dont need to flash the cacko 3kb1)

Hey Terry thanks for the quick response.  I have a couple of questions.  Can I just run the 1.11 updater? Or do I need a fresh install of the original rom?

Thx

xotica, so what was the answer? I currently have a c3000 without the install CD and I was wondering myself how I could get back to the sharp rom if anything went wrong. Can I simply reflash using the updater ? How big of a flash card you need to do a NAND backup on a c3000 ?

Is there a page for special instuctions to setup Cacko 3kb1 on the c3000, since it's not using flash memory for the OS ?

I just got my c3000 and I would hate to see it become some useless because I did something wrong.

Thanks

Is there any instructions somewhere to perform a NAND backup or (full backup) on a SL-C3000 ? I'm seeing alot of articles and info on 7x models and C1000 and C3100, but not much on the C3000...

Thanks!
