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)
:arrow:Close all application that can hang your computer
:arrow:Remove your Memory card
:arrow:Warrenty is void if you flash your phone
:arrow: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 -
:arrow:the 'W' icon for media colour
:arrow:the Music only mode in startup
:arrow:Activities menu replaced with Walkman
:arrow:Radio in loudspeaker
:arrow:the 'Play' button playes music , without having to insert handsfree
:arrow:loud music
:arrow:Walkman media player Organises the music better than old media player
:arrow:4X Zoom at 2 Megapix
:arrow:w800i is costly :D as compared to k750i
:arrow: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

Remove the battery and wait for some time and then replace it. Now, try flashing the phone again. ie., connect with XS++ or Phone XS etc. Repeat the process and there may be any luck. I think the warranty is lost but I dont know what they say if u go to the service centre. My phone disconnected too while I was customizing the file system in the process of flashing. I just repeated the process and the phone got recognized again.

Best of luck

What do flashing have effect on phone (many says it can damage the phone)

Does flashing void the waranty (also i have downloaded K750i update software from Sony Ericsson site) Is that software firmware or just the update to software install on the pc , i meant pc Sony Ericsson suite or it is firware

I have model K750i
I want to make click pics fast and not waiting 1-2 secs to click next pics.
That the only thing i want (clicking pics faster) .

Mine version is

ur firmware is very good ..

flashing the software means changing the whole software including firmware if ur hardware supports it .. and i dont think there is a way for clicking faster pictures because of autofocus lag ..

you cant switch auto focus off as in k790i .. the thing i missed in k750i :(
