thanx too much

[::cyborg::]

yeah a full procedure would be a nice thing to have

and if possible include pictures too

u have a red phone max

[max_demon]

^^Yes , i have Red Phone..

[max_demon]

Required things :
Phone XS
w800i firmware (Rapidshare Link , can anyone upload this on some server?)
USB Drivers (attached with this topic)This is very important
Black k750i Phone (CID 49 New modles)

Things to remember -
[IMP]Charge your phone 80% is enough
[IMP]Make sure that you have the Datacable (that one comes with your phone)
Close all application that can hang your computer
Remove your Memory card
Warrenty is void if you flash your phone
Install USB drivers
If your phone is startes when u press 'C' key and plug datacable
Download USBFlash DriversOpen the arhive.Start PhoneXS, enter settings, start Device Manager(inKey+Pause-Break or Control Panel=>System=>Hardware=>Device Manager). Press Flash button. Hold C, Plug in the cable. Unrecognised device should appear in Device Manager. Right Click on it with the mouse and select Update Driver. Point to the directory where you extracted USBFlash Driver. Now close and open again PhoneXS. Switch off the phone

What it changes -
It just changes the media player , menu structure , camera zooming levels and sound level

Advantages -
the 'W' icon for media colour
the Music only mode in startup
Activities menu replaced with Walkman
Radio in loudspeaker
the 'Play' button playes music , without having to insert handsfree
loud music
Walkman media player Organises the music better than old media player
4X Zoom at 2 Megapix
w800i is costly as compared to k750i
Noone likes w800i colour sceme (except some who like orange , btw i like black)


Disadvantages -
*WARNING!!when i tried deleting some games , the phone restarts automatically ,& hangs up in the starting ne1 else facing this problem please let me know.
*the warrenty is void ofcourse

Process -
1.Extract all files
2. Run Phone XS beta
3.Click File > Start
4.Enter this setting

Communication Device => USB
Baund rate (speed) => 921600
Phone model =>K750/D750/W800 (CID49)

5.Goto Flash.(below there is an option in configuration)

6.Enter
Main firmware=>Path of w800i firmware Extracted file.
Tick - Flash main firmware

7.Turn off your phone Remove the Battery . Replace battery. do not turn on the Phone

8.Click Flash

9.Hold 'C' and Plug in the Datacable.

10. the process will start automatically

11.If everything is fine the phone will remain switched off and you will see this

12. If everything goes OK this should appear

13.Now unplug the phone and start .

Now you have w800i in k750i case.

If after the process the phone doesn't switch on remove the battery and put it back in. Now it WILL work.

Update : New w550i default theme
Update : New w800i default theme
Update : Convert your k750i look to w800i >>Download<< 37 MB 15 Min *.wmv (Explanation is done in Chinese So do at your own risk)

There is some setting, you can hear radio through Phone Speaker but need to connect Headphone as it work as Antena for Radio.

Hey Max..

Nice info man.. Just clarify my doubts..

> Does the flashing change auto focus or the modes, frames etc in the camera in 750i?

> How do I find out my CID number? (of course I bought it recently..)

> What is the worse that could happen if something goes wrong in the middle of the process? I mean u said about risk what is it? what would happen to the mobile?

> If something goes wrong, could we roll back or re-flash it (either with k750i or w800i)? If warranty is void, what should I do if something goes wrong? Do I have to dump my mobile?

> While flashing, Should I keep the sim card in the phone or should I remove it?

> Does everything else work fine? I mean what about the default games? do they change? I liked the 3d flight and tennis game.. and dont want to lose them.

Please let me know as I am interested to do this.

1> No , it don't change camera software . But it degrades the the software from 5.6 to 5.3
But zooming at 4X in large picture mode is good
Autofocus is available.

2>...To find your CID number key in >*<<*<* here goto Service info=>Software info=>scroll to Customisation
Here is written your CID no.

3>you may not be able to start the phone till next flashing

4>since it dont change filesystem nothing is changed , if you want to roll-back juse run SESU

5>keep sim card , if removed it will prompt you to keep

6>you have all the games . it dont even delete the games which you installed before.

an of course

it dont even delete a single contact
it dont even delete a message and all
if you have any problems reply here , btw i have also bought the phone recently

[ander ki baat]the dealer was saying that w800i was Rs.12,000[/ander ki baat]

Thanks Max..

Thats a good info.. three more questions arised.. shooting 'em

> How much time would it take for the total process? I have an AMD 2400+ with 256 mb Ram and geforce 2mx(64 mb) pc.

> Is there a way to upgrade that camera software only?

> I think SEUS upgrades to the latest k750i firmware and I heard that it is cranky. Can I then upgrade to the former version?

2>Sorry, but why u need that new crappy software which restrict zooming at 4X at 2 Megapix

3>Yes latest firmware is really crampy . that is y i have taken w800i firmware

thanx to salilrane

see below for the process

hey thanks .. now me too have my W750i ...

abt camera .. after flashing the firmware .. the autofocus lag is less .. takes less time to focus . also although 4x digital zoom is available in 2mp mode ..it takes the whole photos of objects not the zoomed part ..

sound quality is improves and also sound level is gone up too ..
