Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
then reinsert battery !! holding C connect ur phone to ur computer !! Problem may be also coz of no USB drivers installed... install SEUS it will install all the necessary USB drivers its better to have SE Pc Suite Installed !! ^^^

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
Hello Akshay
 That was a great bit of finding by u and ur friends. Well I have completed the first step ie, flashed the main firmware (W610_R6BC002_MAIN_GENERIC_NA_RED52.mbn) and that was a success  Afterward when I turned my phone on , all was ok and the music player was replaced by walkman 2.0  and the camera is also fine .I just wanna know if now I can upload the flash themes and the sound drivers without doing the 2nd step????  (without flashing FS)Can I get the flash themes working by following the 3rd step ???? (customisation) ???? It would b great if it works .... Please help me out ....... Also what changes does FLASHING FS make ???? |

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
hey buddy nice to know that
i recommend u to flash with w610i FS because the camera drivers is exactly the same in w610i and k550i.. so u won't lose anything rather u get a lot of things... apart from that w610i FS has flash menu and walkman 2 player skins and also it will show w610i status in phone..... u can now also use flash menu and wallpapers provided u flash them into phone... flash menu are really cool... u can upload flash menu to M2 and check those Menus out !! before flashing them into phone.. No No customization to be done only if u flash FS now u can use flash menu coz u hv w610i Main !! just flash those flash menu using XS++ as in tut only flashing Main is enough to get flash menu.. see i hv already mentioned in the tut like this !!

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
Hai akshay
thanks for that reply . I have now installed the flash themes and the w880i accoustics and also the chris 2.4 driver  But still has not flashed my FS !!!! I question now .... Will my phone work well with full walkman 2 options(visualisation + skins) if I flash my FS with W610_R6BC002_MAIN_GENERIC_NA_RED52.mbn ?????  If it works , then I will flash the FS also to convert my k550i fully to w610i .... Will there b any problems ??? (Now the walkman 2 visualisations and themes are not working , same about album art )Please do giv ur suggestions ....... one more doubt ...... REFERING TO UR TUTORIAL .. AFTER FLASHING FS U SAID IN THE TUTORIAL THAT IF WE SWITCH ON THE PHONE , IT WONT WORK , AND IT WILL GIV U AN ERROR MESSAGE ??? U MUST DO THE CUSTOMISATION AND THEN RESTART ?????? WHY DOES IT NOT WORK AFTER FLASHING FS ??? Once again please visit this link ..... http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic...45#post2105578 the greatest sony ericsson community online !!!! I have introduced ur post here in that forum .... also introduced u pal ...... So come on join www.esato.com

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
if u flash FS u must customize it !!!!!!!!!!
or else phone won't start.. ! that's all ! because it will says customization error then u willl hv to shut it down and flash those customize.xml and preloaded_config.xml !! better flash these 2 files after flashing FS and start the phone !! yes if u flash FS then again u have to flash w880i acoustics and camera drivers and flash menu all over again its ok do it !! not a prob at all ! now just find a FS and flash it ! then customize it too ! yes both skins and visulization will work ! this time flash only FS coz u already flashed Main it needs customize.xml and preloaded_congif.xml files to start the phone FS won't have this files... that's why it won't start ! u flash them using FSX or own custpack method to its right place !! the phone will start !!

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
i dunno about that.....did not think about album art !
how does windows media player detect it ?? hv to see when it shows album art... may be create a folder and put a pic with album art as its name... will see into it later..!

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
Hey Ak! How are u?
in accordin to u : Code:
Don't worry !! the only difference in FS is language files and of course some preloaded settings of Operator WAP and MMS settings that's!! So U need to get your language files and its t9 dictionary file and upload it to the phone FS and enable that language ! get your language files form any SE phone FS..it may be for k800 or w810i or any phone.... here is the download list of many FS files Using this list find out in which FS u might get ur language files Get the FS and extract its contents and get the language files and upload it your phone... i have given the link to the tut about how to extract contents from an FS file ! then upload the files using XS++ to \TPA\PRESET\SYSTEM\LANGUAGE\** here ** the files u need to upload is EN.LNG and EN.T9 for english if ur your language code is XY then get that XY.LNG and XY.T9 file and upload it.. then edit that customize.xml in notepad to enable your language ( which is very easy once u look into it.. as its not a big file.. contains max of 20 lines ) Can i download the version R6CA001 CID52 and put in the italian language from release R6BC002 CID52 ? |

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
^^ hey fatez !
well which R6BC002 FS do u have ?? if u can extract the contents of that FS and if it has Italian language files then u take those files ! be happy and keep them.. then flash them into phone... into right place ! and enable them.. and also add this line <allowed-language>XY</allowed-language> in right place in customize.xml ........................................... or u can rename Italian language files to EN.LNG and EN.T9 and over write English language files in FS thus u get ur language but lose english insead over write some other language maybe german or french... and this way u don't hv to edit customize.xml ! an u hv to choose that language which u over written when ur phone starts !!! hey fatez i hv not tired this !! wait ! but this should work because there is absolute no difference in FS other then this ! all the files are exactly same at same locations.... first u try to add INDONESIAN langauge to ur phone now using the above process if that works out well u can add Italian later when u reflashed FS ! am attaching INDONESIAN (id) files don't worry if u don't know that langugae.. just reinsert sim and on start u will be asked to choose language !

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
hey hv attached indonesian files and edited post ... re read it !!
and how did u back up GDFS ?? in which state ?? w610i Main and W610i FS or k550i MAIN and k550i FS ?? oh yes GDFS is that's all very small file ! well the idea is there is only 1 generic Main for many many countries except china of course and yes main vodafone main airtel etc !! so this method shld work out and get u ur language ! GDFS keep it safe.. in case phone goes dead it will help !! just see that ur phone is connected to USB cable tightly coz today my phone was connected loosely and my phone would have died while conducting my experiments ! luckily it did not !

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
to back up GDFS !
select phone as w610i and click READ GDFS since u hv phone with both MAIN AND FS in case of any problems ( which is rare with new XS++ ) your phone will be revived as w610i !! later u can flash back to k550i if u want.. u will get GDFS in .bin ...keep it safely !! fonts ok i will see into it... the creator of the loader told me all db2020 phones are safe and also immune from all such problems if u hv backup of GDFS.. so lets make one back up of it.. coz we can write back GDFS !! in case it breaks !!
