[a_k_s_h_a_y]

^^^ hey flash both FS and MAIN !!

i hv given links to both FS and MAIN here goes again
this time flash with FS and then flash customization files !!
FS

*www.iprotebe.cz/download/W610...RED52.rar.html

Custom Pack :

*rapidshare.com/files/52866712...ustom_pack.zip


custom pack choose for urself if the above does not suit ur country and does not hv language
iprotebe or find on in top sony and ask for that in this link
*forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=14932&hl=topsony

mean while fatez u can flash the MAIN firmware and still hav walkman and megabass only thing is u won't hv visuallization and skins for walkman also it says k550i in status that's all
just flash with generic MAIN u can always come with with SEUS

*forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=14932&hl=topsony

another update !!

while flashing customization delete all .itm files and send only those Customize.xml and preloaded_config.xml

this way u won't have Sony Ericsson links all over the phone in games apps pics themes etc !! i hope u guys it !!
that sony ericsson link is the first option everywhere and u get rid of that this way

 

[jommarn]

Thank you

I just try. and comeback again ^^

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

to use them just upload to phone memory card via datacable !! no flashing here

[steph3n]

just wondering..

is it possible to have walkman 2.0, flash theme AND Cybershot software?


if not then...

what do i need to flash to get walkman 2.0 and flash theme?

full w610? meaning MAIN and FS?

also what are custom packs exactly for?

thanks

 

[infra_red_dude]

you can't jus haf walkman 2.0 on cyber shot phone. you need to flash the whole MAIN firmware.

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

basically u can upload any custom pack !!!! but u must !!

in custom pack u get customize.xml !!
all custom packs have english language enabled and
u can enable ur language by editing it !! its very simple !!!

and FS contains all camera drivers acoustics also 5 language files with T9 for that languages..english is present in all FS and Custom files !
if a custom pack does not have your language files then u can flash it into the phone and edit the customize.xml to support !! or get a ready made one !

i found out that R6BC001 FS of w610i and R6BC001 FS of k550i both have same camera drivers.. bit to bit !!

and MAIN is the base software ! its the actual firmware of the phone !
its the operating system of the phone !
i don't see any change in quality of pictures for k550i@w610i with k550i !

AN IMPORTANT REQUEST !!!

Take Pictures Before Flashing and Take Same Pictures After Flashing !!

And Please Upload for Comparison !!!

Hey a_k_s_h_a_y,

At the end i've buied the 2euro credit and downloaded the region5 for my country language.

doesent mather


I've flashed both (main and fs) from W610, and the custm HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_14_R8A_GENERIC_EUROPE_5 (rapidshar rulez!).

And sure the flahs theme


only things is about secret service menu at voice called : "Service info - Info Software" am bottom : Personalization :

CDA102568/14 R6a cxc1250755
R1KC001 99E0W EUROPE_5

But why R1KC001 ???

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

^^ what's that ?? secret service menu ?? i don't see it anywhere in my phone !!
i think that custompack had it enabled it.. coz we all same FS and MAIN but urs custom pack is different .. just compare it with others and see what's different the others
u can open those .xml in notepad and its easy to understand that

and about that R1KC001 !! don't worry !!
the FS and MAIN that i provided are 100 % R1BC002 versions ! and that's what i see in my phone Update service option in General settings menu !!

hey enjoy ur new w610i !!!

Secret Codes for Sony Ericsson phones
Sony Ericsson Secret Menu: -> * <- <- * <- *
(-> means press joystick, arrow keys or jogdial to the right and <- means left.)
You'll see phone model, software info, IMEI, configuration info, sim lock status, REAL time clock, total call time and text labels.
You can also test your phones services and hardware from this menu (main display, camera, LED/illumination, Flash LED, keyboard, earphone, speaker, microphone, radio and vibrator tests)

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

^^ oh that ! i got it

i checked it out there its R6BC002 for me !!!
sorry for the mistake its not R1BC002 but its R6B002 !!

updates :: added new camera drivers and xaero ma loud acoustics

also check out the method to download stuff from SE website from computers

to come walkman 2 skins !

hello.i'm johnny from greece.i own sony ericsson k550i but when i try to flash the main menu of w660i it doesn't do it.also i have a question what is the difference between "R6BC002 ,R1KG001 and R1JD001" firmwares

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

^^^ u tried to flash w660i Main to k550i ??
i hv not tried it out and also since hardware don't match u will have lots of bugs
use a w610i Main and FS
also w660i got not auto focus..

R6BC002 is the latest Firmware from SE with fixed bugs and new small features added
others are old and not of concern
if u update ur phone via SEUS it updates it to R6BC002 or better

 

[Skynet6]

while flashing customization delete all .itm files and send only those Customize.xml and preloaded_config.xml

this way u won't have Sony Ericsson links all over the phone in games apps pics themes etc !! i hope u guys it !!
that sony ericsson link is the first option everywhere and u get rid of that this way

I did as you wrote but I still have links to sony ericsson sites

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I want to ask you a question. I found 2 another cons :
- I can't upload music via Sony Disc2Phone aplication
- I have flash theme as a wallpaper but when I connect phone in File transfer mode it changes to another wallpaper

So my question is if you have these cons too ?

I've also have another question namely can I update my phone via SEUS (I've complete w610i)

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

i don't have those cons
well from the custpack u had to delete all .itm files and flash only those to customize.xml and preloaded_config.xml !!
i think u did not delete them properly or something wrong
and remember in XS++ folder always delete everything except wht u will upload


and yes i don't use disc2 phone ! its such a boring program to do so
u can upload files to phone's internal memory only in File Transfer Mode
where as to M2 i think u can transfer even when the phone is on ! using My Phone Explorer u can upload when phone on ! but there are few probs.. better no do this way !

and u know why we hold C button while connecting the phone to data cable during flashing ??
coz if u don't hold C it will goto file transfer mode !!

so shutdown ur phone and connect it to USB it goes directly to FT mode ! this is just for info !

hey yes abt that flash as wallpaper i hv to check it out !! wait hold on
yes it got reset to the wallpaper of the theme for me also

if u update ur phone via SEUS it willl flash ur phone with latest k550i Main !

and u will be left with k550i Main w610i FS and w610i Custpack !
so then flash with k550i FS and k550i cust pack !!!

 

[Skynet6]

I did exactly what you wrote but I stil have those f***ing links.
I don't use Sony Disc2Phone, I only wanted to wrote that this way it doesn't work.

By updating via SEUS I mean if I can update it with w610i firmware selected ?

By the way I have another question what acoustics do you use becouse I got a little confused ?

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

i now use w880i acoustics
i tired sunfire they are loud !! and i don't like it !
i tired to do something with qwerty12 but those apf work only on w810i could not test them really... they say its got best megabass

then there is xaero ma loud.. another loud acoustic.. since its loud did not bother to test it ..
k thanks abt that discman thing may be coz of compatibilty ....

here read this why i don't like loud stuff !!

or u can google search as follows
