Quote:
was this the first time u switched it off ?? or the first time it got switched off ?? and if u take that phone to service center then there are high chances that u might get replacement... i hope luck favours u.. atleast a guy in europe got replacement for same problem....for w580i.. he flashed his w580i with mostly the latest Main that u used i suppose.. tell me which version of Main and FS u used ?? try to flash it using Sony Ericsson Update Service.. i mean try to update it.. and u get clear instructions then try connecting it to XS++ and give me its log let me see it.. i will ask other ppl also.. who have flashed s500i to w580i its got something to do with EROM problems in w580i and s500i and with that latest main R6bc002.. and don't worry abt service center guys.. they will fix to for free mostly.. because they can't start the phone to see that u flashed to w580i... in case they got to know u simply tell u did nothing but only update phone using SEUS... !

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
which city do u live in ???
warranty does go void.. but most of times it does not... they will fix it for free... just goto service center and behave as though u don't know what happened... u tell them that phone all of a sudden got shut down.. if they ask anything u tell u don't know.. just tell all u did was update your phone with SEUS.. they will reflash with their software and fix it.. or give replacement.. mostly... incase they know about flashing of w580i which i think is unlikely then also they might fix for free.. it all depends on the service centre...

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
i dunno if w810i has 3 speakers...
one of my friend says it has 3 speakers... and one guy *techgenius* on this forum says its got only 1... w810i has got great camera.. much better music quality ... k550i does not great camera in low light.. it bad.. its great only in day time... k550i music is good only with good earphones.. which u must buy separately.. k550i does not have walkman.. so u must flash to w610i u get walkman 2 where as w810i has walkman 1 ... w810i comes bundled with great earphones hpm 70 where as k550i comes with crap hpm 62 w810i also comes with superb MPS 60 stereo speakers.... and most importantly.. for me k550i is SLIM !!!!!!! k550i has got much better spec sheet.. apart from bad cam and lil bad music compared to w810i but if slim does not matter then go for w810i !!

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
@digitzen
SEUS won't work coz now it'll think that ur s500i is now a w580i. i think you should try again wid XS++ on a different computer wid a different cable. you should be able to flash it to the original s500i firmware. w810i doesn't haf 3 speakers. its just 1 onboard speaker. it was only w550i that had 3 speakers (for the surround mode).

ppl who tried to update w580i EROM had same problems... ! some SE EROMs have this problems.. damn it..we should have taken caution before flashing it.. ! let us all know what the service center guys had to say about the phone.. ! it will be very helpful... dude sorry for ur phone's death...! this flashing of s500i to w580i has not been tried by many... we all know its possible to flash.. and had no idea what problem could be caused... all db2020 and CID52 phones can be flashed easily and with no problems.. generally.. its because of corrupt Main and EROM problems... and a gdfs backup would have been nice....!!!!! read this topic.. and don't forget to let us know the service center guys reply..

where u from ?? and how u got all the resources and how did u get to know abt this tut ?? @ all ! XS++ 2.0 has been released and its even more easier to use... in that the step where u select break XS has been removed and now it supports GDFS back up.. which means we don't have to use the dangerous SeTool 2 lite.

Re: Tutorial: Flashing k550i to w610i !!
@ akshay...
I'm from philippines... and now i have done it the full W610 FS, i have learned about this tut when i searched google "k550 to w610" i downloaded all files in your tutorial links... At first i had problems with the custompacks in your link on your tut (the one in the rapidshare), still error after flashing... i was so tense and afraid my phone has problems... so i downloaded the one in iProTebe... HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_207_R2A_GENERIC_CENT_EUROPE.zip it worked well... finally with a deep breath... i have one more question... regarding flashing of flash menus... is this a totally new own_custpack folder or i use this - "HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_207_R2A_GENERIC_CENT_EUROPE.zip" then add the flash folder? did you understand my question? if not i will rephrase my question... |

Re: Best acoustic drivers for K550i:Original W900i acoustics
about the w900i acoustics:when i updated the w900i acous. using XS++, it did get successfully flashed in and there was definitely a change in the Sound output.I did put int the same w900i acous twice after flashing in W800i and W700i acous. and both times i got the same sound output as i got when i first updated the W900i acous...also if the sound files would be sitting as junk then i would have got back my original dumb sounding K550i acous..Dunno how but i think i'm got W900i working...and if its not W900i then it must b W700i(i flashed those in Before w900i ,,original W700i and not W800i as i replied back 2 days back,,i went and checked the notepad file on my laptop in which i had saved the sequence of sound file updates)..please do the needful about W900i acous...
