IMPORTANT: If you already have applied the quick access patch then don’t apply the quick acces patch again directly jump to part 2, if you have not applied Quick access patch with db2020 script in Setool 2 lite then please apply it.

  8. roni says

  9. bhuvan says

    roni
    it should keep moving!!!
    try back again
    ur phone must have got disconnected

  10. napstar says

    hey bhuvan, for some reason ma w580i’s sound has got spoilt…i mean there is a lot of disturbance from d main speaker when i try playing any songs.& even d earphone gives the same problem.there is a lot of disturbance during calls.i jus cant hear the person on d other end..is this a hardware problem or software one??pls help…also to mention that i recently patched ma fone using jdflasher…n d sound was working absolutely fine even after that…!it jus happend all of a sudden! please help

  11. napstar says

    also i forgot2mention that the disturbance is like some screeching sound! i am sure that d speakers are absolutely fine…but i dont noe where the problem lies.please help me resolve it.thanks

  12. bhuvan says

    napstar
    this is really strange!
    hearing this first time
    try it somewhere away from some kind of magnetic filed
    like away from speakers
    try other sim

    first go for common steps

    if nothing helps restore original acoustics
    still no help then final thing is reflashing
    is ur phone cid:53?

  13. napstar says

    yeah dude…ma fone is CID53…n i also restored d original acoustics ..yet no change..!!!
    i think i’l have to reflash…..btw, wil i need 2 flash only main or also fs to correct this problem ??
    one more question is that i have patched ma fone…so does this cause ma warranty to get expired…i still have a few months left.so i thought that if reflashing wudn’t work then i’d have2send it2 sony ericsson service centre.so please tell me if the warranty gets void after patching or not…thanks a lot.

  14. bhuvan says

    napstar
    no…if ur phone was branded and u flashed it into non branded then only warranty is gone
    these are all rumors!
    yeah
    try reflashing
    ur phone is cid:53
    then there is no harm in using seus also
    if u reflash through a2 uploader u need fs,main and cda pack also

    do one thing

    open a2 uploader and go to
    tpa/preset/custom

    right click on the folder and click on read
    all the cda pack is urs now!
    ref;lash and copy all those files back
    folder is created in ur a2 uploader’s dir

  15. napstar says

    thanks dude…i have copied all the contents of my fone using JDflasher(including tpa/preset/custom) i could not use a2 uploader as w580i is not an a2 fone..anyway,bhuvan u forgot to tel me if i should reflash only my main or also FS ??i mean individual ones or both main & FS ??pls let me noe.

  16. bhuvan says

    napstar
    better reflash both so that company people do not have any kind of reason to show that the problem is created by user
    service center guys are really worst!
    n i forgot ur phone
    these days my brain si totally in a2 stuff!
