Shutdown phone . Reinsert Battery. (don’t start phone)
Then Click on Connect in XS++ and holding C button on your phone connect your phone to Computer to USB cable and don’t leave C button until XS++ detects your phone and requests you to leave C button.
On the Left Side of the XS++ it gives details of your phone. Read it !
EROM CID 52 are must ! or else stop right here !
This is the general way of connecting phone to XS++ every time you connect phone to XS++ this is how you have to connect !
3. Folder Creating Instructions and My Terminology !
If i say upload files to location own_custpack/tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash/
then u must create a folders like this
1. create “own_custpack” folder in the XS++.exe directory.
2. open “own_custpack” folder and create “tpa” folder.
3. open “tpa” folder and create “preset” folder.
4. open “preset” folder and create “system” folder.
5. open “system” folder and create “desktop” folder.
6. open “desktop” folder and create flash folder.
7. open “flash” folder and paste all .swf files you want.
8. then flash using xs++
You can also upload files using FAR MANAGER !! Follow here !!!
4. Using XS++ !
We use XS++ to upload files to phone’s File System
Shutdown phone, in XS++ Click Connect phone, Reinsert battry, holding C connect phone. Then in XS++ Main window Check customize file system option and in select phone model option you must choose own_custpack
Then when you press flash button, XS++ uploads the contents of own_custpack folder to the phone’s file system.

——————————————————————————————————————————
5. Flash Menus

Ever Flash Menu must have a matching theme to use with. Or Else we will need to pair a .swf file and a .thm file to use them. Download the guide to couple flash menus.
After downloading flash menu copy the .swf files to flash folder
own_custpack/tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash/*** .swf files her***
and upload using own_custpack
Later Copy .thm files to M2 card !

Hi, been searching everywhere for a solution, maybe you can help me?
How do you access FS on a K770 with Erom Color Brown?
I just want to update the camdriver.
Tried with Far and XS++ 3.1, but no luck so far.
I think maybe the problem is the Erom color, or?

Awesome site man… keep up the good works…
Best regards
Jan 31 at 13:19
Ante .. sorry no solution for brown CID52 phones.
Jan 31 at 16:33
Probaly it doesn´t matter, but what I understand the phone is brown CID49,or?
Maybe the same “protection” as CID52,I don´t know.
Guess I just have to wait until it´s a solution for this prob´out there somewhere, or buy another phone.
Cheers!

Hi Akshay, thanks for creating your own site, I followed your Thinkdigit tutorial to flash my K550i to W610i and its working fine. However there is one thing I am not able to do….i.e. getting Flash Menus.
I have put the Flash files in the required place using XS++, and after that I took the respective .thm file and have put it in Theme folder of my phone mem card. But when I set the theme to the just copied .thm file it does not show the flash Menu but the normal theme. Am I doing anything wrong? The Flash wallpaper are working great. Only thing is the flash menus
Feb 06 at 18:02
its because flash menu is not coupled ..
see this
http://http//www.esnips.com/doc/15dea887-6c7c-4571-8a12-b3a98a5b8b7e/Convert-to-Theme-to-Flash-menu
Feb 07 at 10:31
Thanks Akshay for the quick reply, however I checked the theme.xml file and saw that it corresponds to correct swf file as I took the corresponding .thm file for eg I have put the file test.swf using XS++, then took the test.thm file and kept it in the theme folder of the M2 card. I have also checked in test.thm’s theme.xml file if it is pointing to theme.swf or not. What I am getting is the normal test.thm theme and not from the flash swf file.
Hope I can send you the snapshot.
Feb 07 at 11:06
hmm then it should work unless you put the SWF in wrong place..!
Feb 11 at 14:38
In my phone(k790i) video recording is not good(QVGA,15 fps).if it is possible to upgrade the quality of video recording then please tell me the solution and please email me the required tools.my phone’s firmware version is R1KG001

You need FAR Manager and a new camera driver, use google to find what you need.
Feb 13 at 05:34

w810 can’t be updated to CID52
but u can use XS++ FSX for w810i CID49
use this
http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/tutorials/xs-fsx-tutorial/
Feb 15 at 12:33
Can I use FAR Manager to update Flash menu….I can see in the tutorial you said to select DB2020…but mine W810i shows DB2010 and CID49….What should I do..?
Feb 15 at 13:12
DB2010 is compatible with FAR…
Just paste (drag-drop) ONLY the SWF file to the folder in your phone
tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash
and then put the theme in to your Phone or card…
Feb 15 at 13:13
tq. i really appreciate it.
Feb 15 at 13:27
Thanks I really appreciate that…but can you please explain the difference between the SWF file I will be putting in the folder and the theme which needs to be in card…I thought the theme is itself a xxxx.swf file which I need to put in the folder….
Feb 15 at 14:36
Hi
I used FSX method to put flash menu and then flash theme…I changed the theme and it worked …but now its asking for password…what should I do..I never kept a password for my phone…don’t know y its asking for…Please help..its urgent..
Feb 15 at 14:59
If you hadn’t used a password so far, it should be 0000, it always is the default, I think it is worth a try.
Feb 15 at 16:16
Theme ?? is the theme password protected ??
some guys have created themes with password protection .. see source for the code
Feb 15 at 16:17
does k850 supported??
can u explain if so…
thnks ..
nice job..
Feb 15 at 17:07
no its not man .. K850 is DB3150 and not Db2020
no Db3150 Free Flashing !!
Feb 16 at 11:23
Hi …Yes the theme was password protected….I removed it and it came back to ok….now its working fine…thanks…
Feb 22 at 00:38
How do I delete walkman skins after I uploaded theem to my phone.
Feb 22 at 10:37
Mark, go to the appropriate folder using XS,FAR,SETOOL
tpa\system\multimedia\mp\skin\
and safely remove the (image) files you have uploaded…
Feb 23 at 19:23
when u said u need erom cid52 why is this
i tried flashing my phone to get the flash themes but it didnt work is this because i have EROM CID49 instead of EROM CID52
ps great tutorial kudos to you
Feb 24 at 03:12
Hi Akshay,
is it possible for me to upload cam, acoustics , display drivers and swf files without changing my K800i firmware which is r1kg001 ? any side effects? pros and cons if i dont update the firmware to the k810i?
Feb 24 at 05:08
sorry … CID59 also works !! but not 51 .. works for 52 also
this tutorial kind of sucks and is outdated will have to update it .. or delete this whole mess !
Feb 27 at 00:46
Modding an amping your acoustic drivers for better sound quality is great an its really worth it because my phone sounds alot louder which I like,but I’d like to know if this could be potentially damaging to the phone in the long term,like I mean could playing music at a higher decibel rate than the built in speaker was originally able to handle damage it?
Feb 27 at 09:23
^^^
nope. it wont danage ur speaker.
only the battery drain will be more
Feb 27 at 16:19
hey dude, my w610i has got skin problem. there are some errors like it it doesn’t show black skin and more. how to reset the settings. if u r telling me to delete the settings file in the skin folder. then which file should be replaced in place of it. i ain’t got a backup of it. pls provide the links of the required files. bye.
Mar 01 at 15:31
Akshayy thanks to you I have my k550im transformed in a free k550i! Now I want to upload some nice acoustic and camera drivers. Which is the best way using XS++3.1? I mean, I have to use the FSX option or the easier “own_custom” flashing method? Which camera drivers do you suggest for my phone? Thanks for all your wonderful work!!
Mar 01 at 16:20
I prefer using FSX in XS++, but uploading an acoustic pack with FSX takes eternity, so use FAR Manager.
Mar 01 at 16:22
I have a w800i@k750i Red CID49…Can I use this post to customize camera,audio and display drivers ? This post says this is for CID52…
Mar 01 at 16:33
You have a W800 flashed to K750?! What you wrote means that. You can use XS++ FSX to upload the files, it is ok, but the files provided here are for other, newer phones, so use google instead, or sek750.extra.hu.
Mar 06 at 07:15
I totally lost here, can u teach easier way of having
flash theme on my k770
Mar 06 at 12:02
sure .. follow this !
see the video !
http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/tutorials/xs-fsx-tutorial/
in video uplaod flash menus
i don’t think your phone supports flash menus
if it does then you must already have some working flash menus !
Mar 08 at 18:20
I want to say thank you to you Akshay, I have just successfully flashed my K550i to W610i and i am very pleased with the results, this wouldnt have been possible if i had not read your excellent tutorial, so thanks again dude…keep up the excellent work
Mar 10 at 13:28
Hey, I want to change my w810i acoustics since my phone acoustics are not good. My phone software version is R4EA031. I want good sound acoustics and I have downloaded from u r site. I need a small clarification you have told in tutorial that u can use xs++ only for cid 52 phones in the tutorial. My phone is not cid 52 can i upload the acoustics using File explorer? Does this harm my phone?
Thanks in advance
Mar 10 at 14:20
CID51 is unstable for flashing, and its not safe for safety reasons
you can update it to CID52 easily with SE update service ..
Mar 11 at 04:07
Thanks for the quick reply. I have one more doubt in the XS++ after clicking “connect” my phone details will be listed on left side. Now suppose I do not want to enter into FSX or flash…… Shall I disconnect the USB cable directly from the PC or is there any process to shut down. I am not making any changes by entering into the FSX or Flash.
Mar 11 at 06:20
If you just want to see the details, click Connect, then Settings at the bottom, and then Disconnect.
Mar 11 at 08:11
I have tried clicking connect using XS++ and i got “error opening communication port” please unplug the cable. I think this is because I haven’t updated my phone using SEUS. Is that correct?
Mar 11 at 12:14
That probably means, that you have some problems with the flashing drivers, use an administrator account, and follow http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/tutorials/installing-usb-flash-drivers/
This should help, otherwise, the problem must be with the phone itself.
Mar 11 at 12:17
I ran SEUS also and during the download of the software it hangs at 49%. I disconnected the phone. Thank god my phone works.
Mar 11 at 14:41
Hey dude, thanks a lot now my phone is detecting after installing the flash drivers. Now all i need is superb sound acoustics for my phone. Plz provide me the acoustics for DB2010 and EROM color:red and EROM CID is 49. Thanks a lot for u r help. You guys rock. Keep up the good work.
Mar 11 at 14:47
By the way my phone is w810i. Please do not say we cannot upload acoustics for cid 49. I want my phone to play rocking music.
Mar 11 at 15:17
yes you can for db2010 CID49
but db2020 CID49 is unusual !
you can go ahead with acoustics .. use apf not zapf !
Mar 11 at 15:32
But where can i find apf acoustics, please help me na. In your website they are only zapf acoustics available. I have searched in topsony forums and Se-nse they are tosharas mega acoustics available but iam unable to download from that website. Moreover I have read in forums that if you use tosharas acoustics u cannot play amr files in speaker. Is that true.
Mar 11 at 19:07
Hey, I got the acoustics of toshara 1.6 now should i delete the original acoustics and upload this one (OR) should i upload the new acoustics on the existing ones?
Mar 11 at 19:33
Just upload, it will overwrite the files that exist. Also if the pack you acquired does not contain a file, the phone will have the original to work with.
Mar 12 at 08:18
Hey, I have uploaded the acoustics now sound is booming and bass awesome. Thanks a lot for helping me. I am so happy now my sound has boosted.
Mar 12 at 12:13
I have one more query, Sony supports only mp3, AAC,eAAC audio. Is there any way to play WMA and other audio in the mobile?
Mar 13 at 05:17
hey dude can u tell me where to put the layout file of no operator logo. i have got the file. i just need the path.
Mar 13 at 06:29
It is tpa/system/layout, but be careful with it, use only the righ file for the phone, also try to create a backus before doing it.
Mar 13 at 18:33
My friend has k800. Is it possible to put superb acoustics in his mobile? It is db2020 and yet to see the CID version.
Mar 13 at 19:36
Superb acousctics– I always use W880 on DB2020 phones, so I suggest using that. http://www.esnips.com/doc/60fc56ef-39a5-4e87-a402-48592f0008ba/ZAPF_Acoustic_W880
It is both louder and better in quality. Use it.

Thank you. But in k series it doesnt have megabass option. Does the option come when u upload the acoustics (OR) does it overwrite existing bass to megabass?
Mar 14 at 13:58
No, to have Megabass on such phones, you need to apply some vkp patch on the main firmware to replace the original bass with Megabass. Acoustics don’t change bass (equalizer) settings.
Mar 14 at 14:32
Okay, without the megabass option does the sound boost compared to original? Even if i dont get the megabass option does the sound come equivalent to megabass?
Mar 14 at 14:40
I doubt that, Megabass it an equalizer setting, it tweaks audio channels, boost low frequency and things, so it has got not too much to do with W880 acoustics. But new acoustics makes your phone louder for sure. Also try this: http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/patching/megabass-for-all-se-db2020-phones/

mr. peti n akshayy..can u post me layout for W660i that configure without logo operator, date time moved on top and no scrollbar..ples help me.Thks b4..
Mar 15 at 11:01
you can get it from an w660 FS
we don’t keep extract FS of all phones ! sorry !
you can easily get all the files used in w660 by extracting an w660 FS !
then you can follow this tutorial to create your own layout !

Mar 15 at 11:59
semaj has written a tutorial ! we can learn the concepts from that tutorial and write on our own !!
Mar 15 at 12:28
Damn, I don’t know anything about modding Layout.xml.
Shouldn’t we have such a tutorial here? (@Akshay)

hey dude. have u installed MHQ2.9 driver for camera. everything is good. but the patch provided is not stable. Far says that the numbers vary in the patch. should i go ahead and install the patch. have u done it for R8024 w610i. if it goes wrong i will have to reflash everything.
Mar 20 at 20:43
Not everything, just main. But you will lose your patches installed.

hey peti can i custom my cell phone with walkman skin2? or walkman skin1? i flashed s500i to w580i! can i?
thanks regards!
Mar 20 at 22:57
Yes. W580 has Walkman 2.0 on it and it has a 240×320 px display. So you need FAR Manager and Walkman 2.0 skins with the resolution of 240×320.
Read FAR Manager tutorial, and then download:
http://seflashing.4shared.com/account/file/40133221/d4c0c6e/Walkman_2_Skins_240×320.html
Upload skins to:
TPA\SYSTEM\MULTIMEDIA\MP\SKIN\**skin folder here**
Mar 20 at 23:06
i already tried doing that and no changes?
Mar 20 at 23:08
ohh shyt man u said to use far manager? i tried flashing it frm xs++…. may be it dint work!
Mar 20 at 23:54
well i tried with far manager i was not sure was to do at this step where i have to select Take DCU-60 in Device, 921600 in Speed and Your’s CID in Boot script. and choose db2020 CID 52. IF Your phone is CID51 and DB2020 then choose db2020_51 or if its CID49 or then db2020_49.
wat ever was shown in pic i tried that….i went in gud i was in tpa files and went in walkman skin 2 file but after that i click on the skin i went in the skin then wat……………please help….
(i have flashed s500i to w580i)
Mar 21 at 00:01
You navigate in TPA\SYSTEM\MULTIMEDIA\MP\SKIN\ directory on the left panel & you copy a skin from the right panel. (So of course you have to extract that rar file you downloaded. A skin is a directory with a few files in it: BrowseView_Background.png, FF_Icon.png, Play_Icon.png, PlayNow_Background.png, PlayView_Background.png, Rewind_Icon.png, Skin.XML, Stop_Icon.png. So you have to copy directories like this over to the left panel. So select the directory and press F5, it will show a dialog, then hit Enter. On the left panel, the directory will appear. This has to be done with all skins.)
Mar 22 at 19:56
Hey, my w810i is switching off frequently. why is it so? Phone is from germany and locked to O2. It has been flashed twice and problem persists. I haven’t dropped mobile anywhere. Any idea why is this happening?
Mar 22 at 21:08
Battery failure maybe? And you should try using it purely, with no patches and all, just Main, FS & custpack on it. (if it is possible…)
Mar 24 at 07:56
hey akshay please help me..i’m in big trouble..
I was using far manager and i opened ifs/settings/acoustic/ and i by mistake deleted all the files. I transfered xaero ma loud files and now i can’t hear niether my voice or the other speaker’s voice while in a call. Please tell me how 2 get back 2 my original acoustics so that i can get all the acoustic files and all my sound functions work like before.
Thanx in advance
Mar 24 at 11:35
Try to upload W880 acoustics, probably they will fix it. If not, then extract the FS of your phone, and upload the files from there. (You can find all tutorials you may need right here.)
Apr 01 at 07:40
I have w700i acoustics can I upload those to w810i and those files are apf. My phone is db2010. Shall I go ahead?
Apr 01 at 12:22
Yes, it should work all right. (Though you better make backups before doing anything.
)
Apr 01 at 12:31
I have made back up long back only and started customizing my phone. Thanks anyways.
Apr 02 at 15:30
I want to restore the back up of my mobile. Shall I do that on the existing software or should I clear the existing software and then restore the software?
Apr 02 at 15:39
What does software and backup mean here? Like you have some files from the FS and you want to clear FS?? Go ahead and restore the backup files. But I don’t get how you want to clear anything!!
Apr 02 at 21:47
hey
first this is a great tutorial, perfect man
but ive downloaded seus, but it wont start
becouse i dont have compatible flash player
but i have the latest adobe flash player!!
ive downloaded it from the official site
why??
but with far everything is working great
Apr 03 at 11:13
Before changing the acoustics of my mobile I have took a back up of my mobile.You have suggested me that to use the mobile purely without applying patches to main, FS etc since my mobile switches off frequently even after flashing it twice. Now the question is shall i go ahead and put original acoustics through FSX or should I restore the back up which I have taken?
Apr 03 at 17:34
If your phone is still switching off frequently, do a full reflash and don’t bother with backup files. I don’t think that acoustics have anything to do with that problem, it is just in the main firmware, I think, so you should use the acoustics you like best. What is the difference between “original” and “backup” here?
Apr 03 at 17:36
peti i hv great stuff for k770.i hv created gfx patches for k770 including media player and radio.i hv light effects for k770.this stuff is not available on any other webdsite n i will b glad to share this with u guys.u may add my link under k770 in ur new websites. link:

Apr 03 at 17:40
I think having the downloads themselves would be better anyway.
Apr 03 at 17:46
@ alibi89: your comment was identified as spam. :S
Don’t use SEUS, it will update all CID 52 phones to CID 53, and that is not yet supported by XS++, SeTool2, FAR Manager (SEFP), JDFlasher, all flashing tools. What you need to use SEUS is http://seflashing.extra.hu/?mode=dlSoft&name=install_flash_player_active_x.msi by the way, but I wouldn’t if I were you.
Apr 05 at 17:04
Does the phone have to be debranded in order to put flash menus? How can i put flash menus using Far Manager?
Apr 05 at 17:07
In most of the cases it isn’t necessary, though the provider/reseller can lock the phone not to have flash menus.
Upload the swf files to tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash directory.
Apr 05 at 19:15
Should i use Far manager or XS++ to upload the flash menu?
Apr 05 at 19:28
I say FAR Manager because that way you can upload multiple files faster. But it doesn’t matter.
Apr 05 at 19:29
Ok, so i uploaded the .swf file onto the flash directory using far manager, then i put the theme for that .swf file on my phones memory card and set the theme. When the theme was set the only thing i saw was the theme itself, there was no flash menu. HELP!!?
Apr 05 at 19:43
Does your phone have flash lite in it? Try uploading an swf file to the memory card and open it with the phone’s file manager. It should have a Macromedia F icon, grey orb, and you could open it with the file manager. BUT if you can’t then you don’t have flash support, hence no flash menus at all.
Apr 05 at 20:11
The icon is not Macromedia F but when i open it, it shows me the flash menu and i could move around and view the catagories but cant access the catagories when i press select. Does that mean i dont have flash lite? If so how can i put it into my phone?
Apr 05 at 20:13
Never mind, i do see an F inside a gray orbit. But then why isnt it working, can you please list the steps on how to put this flash menu onto my phone w580i. Its not debranded so maybe thats why? Or is it fine for it to be branded?
Apr 05 at 20:21
Can you start the swf file? In file manager, you press the left button, does it start?
Apr 05 at 20:22
Yes it does start, and i could move around too
Apr 05 at 20:25
Ooops. If you can start the swf like that, it means you do have Flash Lite. Maybe the thm you use doesn’t use flash menu? Try these:
http://seflashing.extra.hu/?mode=dlPimp&category=flashmenus&name=Flash%20menus%20176×220.zip&show=fileinfo
Apr 05 at 20:28
The .swf should be just one file right? What i did was that i connected the phone to XS++. Then i clicked on start FSX and went to tpa/preset/system/desktop/flashdirectory and then i just uploaded the one .swf file. After that i clicked on shut down and turned my phone back on. Then i put the theme that came with the .swf file onto my memory card and then i unplugged the phone. i started the phone and set the new theme. I did not see a flash menu but all i saw was the theme itself. Setting the theme should automatically start the flash menu right?
Apr 05 at 20:31
Oh ok, i understand you. Let me try it once more with the link you just gave me. So i just upload the .swf file to the flash directory, and then upload the theme to the memory card. Then set the theme and it should automatically start the flash menu?
Apr 05 at 20:35
Yes, as soon as the theme is set. W580 has Flash menu support, so if it still isn’t working, you will have to debrand it.
Apr 05 at 20:41
The .swf title should be the same as the theme title right?
Apr 05 at 20:46
Nope, it didnt work. i chose the iphone.swf and iphone.thm. All that happened was that there was no wallpaper and so it was all black. Please help me. Why isnt it working? Maybe im doing it wrong. May you please list the steps in your own words beucase the tutorials get confusing at times. I would REALLY appreciate if you did this. Thanks
Apr 05 at 20:48
Not exactly. Thm files are renamed TAR archives. In them there is a Theme.xml file. In that xml there is a line like . That defines the swf file’s name. 
Apr 05 at 20:55
I don’t know if W580 has flash menus or not. But the way you did, just uploading swf to that dir and thm to any dir is ok. So it isn’t working it might just be impossible. But it’s worth trying debranding it.
Apr 05 at 21:03
Well i have the sony ericsson theme creator and so all the themes have a paint tray icon. Maybe that is a reason its not working. I dont know, its just a random guess. Anyways I would just upload the .swf so for example if i upload the iphone.swf file then what theme should i put with it?
Apr 05 at 21:04
Is there a way i can reach you by chatting or something becuase you are very helpful, i will have many questions. Thanks
Apr 05 at 22:16

Reflash main and FS.
Apr 15 at 16:33
hi, I have had no problem flashing/debranding/backing up GDFS etc. with my phone before and I wanted to add different accoustics to my phone, which is a k810. When I connected to XS+ to back up my GDFS it detected the phone name and said ready for operation, but it also said that my phone was CID53. So when I pressed backup GDFS it said ’sorry your phone is not supported’ . How do I get my phone to be CID52 again? why has it changed as I had never had problems before?
Apr 15 at 16:57
Sorry NO CID53 support … XS++ does not work with it
There is JD Flasher… which has just now added support for CID53
we will soon come up with a tutorial for that
regards
Apr 15 at 21:37
Yes but why did it change when I have never had problems with XS++ before with my phone?
Apr 16 at 11:52
Am really sorry .. its because you updated your phone with SEUS.. SEUS now makes phone CID53

Apr 16 at 12:06
yeah I’ve just researched it and found out its cause of that.
I updated my phone and it has locked it to a network again so I can no longer use it. is there a way to unlock it using JD flasher? thanks, 
Apr 16 at 12:24
am really sorry.. i think it was me who made you update your phone !! no you can’t freely unlock your phone now.
Apr 17 at 01:43
help me…i want to backup some data from the phone like camdriver..is it possible??how??thanks before
Apr 17 at 04:41
It is only necessary to ask it in one comment. :@
XS++ can’t do it. JDFlasher can. But it is much faster to extract an fs (find tutorial on this site).
Apr 17 at 16:28
what can i do with a CID53 phone? am I stuck with it forever?
Apr 17 at 17:09
sorry to say that .. but yes
but you can use JD Flasher with this..
i will write a tutorial.
i just have confusion about correct loaders.
with jdflahser you can change acoustics, cam drivers, etc. and all stuff applicable to k810
but no patching and unlocking it.
because jd flasher does not support cid53 patching
it requires a lot of research to implement it.
patching is available only for CID52
Apr 18 at 12:43
Thanks I will look forward to the tutorial for that cause I want to change my acoustics.. do you know if the unlockers at market stalls etc. can unlock CID53 phones?
Apr 18 at 14:33
yes u can unlock by paying.
Apr 18 at 16:34
yes.. local shops unlock in UK
or using a server tool like total server, d client, se tool full etc !
Apr 21 at 15:45
does SE k790i support flash wallpapers???
Apr 21 at 15:47
and does it support flash menu???
Apr 21 at 16:13
As far as I know, it is not possible. Try uploading any swf file to the phone. It won’t start it, K790 doesn’t have flash lite in it. Though many have requested such a patch, so it may be possible later.
Apr 21 at 16:21
ive got a few doubts!
what is unlocking?
is it necessary to unlock my new k790i before i do ur stuff on that???like…new acoustics, new drivers etc.
if i change these things on my k790i…are they reversible by re-installing the original firmware?
Apr 21 at 17:56
no man unlocking is for using any SIM card
in UK phones are fixed to Operator. need to unlock to use sim of other operators
Apr 21 at 18:24
hi,
is it posibble to change the accosutic only the sound for music player? i mean, i only need the acoustic when i’m playing a song, but the other sound like autofocusing, opening tone, etc is normal
Apr 21 at 20:10
Yes sure, just look at the file names, you don’t have to upload all files of an acoustic pack…
Apr 22 at 01:15
Okey then..but which files?it’s too many..i’ve tried changing only farfield.zapf. But it’s still the same..i’m using k770
Apr 22 at 05:29
I have no idea about which they are.

I M ALSO NOT GETTING FIRMWARE FOR W550I FROM ANY SITE RECOMMENDED BY YOU. WHAT TO DO NOW?
HOW TO KNOW WHETHER MY PHONE IS CID.. OR NOT?
May 01 at 09:27
1. Why the f*ck are you using capitar letters?!
2. Connect it to XS++, holding C button, it will provide the necessary info about CID number.
3. Both are possible, thogh I don’t know where you’ll find patches for it, at least FW is at http://www.topse.ru/files/cat162.html .
4. Your phone is NOT CID. CID is the “version number” of the phone’s protection, all phones have it.
May 02 at 13:51
Lol @ Peti he is angry with capital letter user
A question for k770i users: does anyone still can use FaceWarp application after applying new cam driver? Because I can’t
May 02 at 14:48
Got the answer. Modded cam driver do not support FaceWarp (maybe not all). I upload the original cam driver and it works fine again. But I rarely use FaceWarp so I think I won’t need original cam driver
May 03 at 10:33
Can’t FaceWarp use pictures from Memory Stcik? If so, you can take the pictures with the camera, and load them in FaceWarp.
May 05 at 16:53
@Peti
Yeah. That way works too
thanks!

my k550 was flashed to the w610i custpack but i cant get other flash themes on my phone just the ones that came with the custpack

May 08 at 08:31
when you upload the acoustic you want, do you need to delete the existing ones?
May 08 at 09:18
You don’t have to, they are overwritten. Besides Xaero_ma doesn’t have all files, so it works together with original acoustics.
May 10 at 08:30
I flashed my fone 2 W610i.
N i place the .swf and .thm files as asked in the tutorial…

you should use a swf file along with .thm files.

i want to take off the top cover of my phone so that i can paint it black do you or can u post a tutorial on dismanteling a w610i
May 16 at 05:35
well we will try to provide service manuals.. you can use them.
May 16 at 13:59
I have service manual for K550, and I can get for a lot of phones, but not for W610. :S
We should provide them on SeFlashing.extra.hu!!
May 16 at 20:21
is there any way that i can make my w610 r6bc002 into a w610 r8ba024?
May 16 at 20:24
it seems all the good patches are for r8ba024
May 16 at 23:02
Not exactly, you might be looking the wrong place. R6BC002 seemed more hackable, easier to modify. Also elves only run on w610 r6.
You can change it to r8 though, download the reqiured main firmware, the FS and a CDA, then flash them on with XS++.
May 21 at 16:38
Akshay / Peti, can i use the super camera driver for my w660i phone, will it cause any problem? basically using the cam drivers that is not meant for my phone.
May 21 at 17:07
AFAIK it makes the cam image black, but it won’t harm it. But if it is not listed as supported, and its fellow types (K530,V630) aren’t listed either, why mess with it?
May 21 at 23:52
i could never get the flash themes 2 work =( k55o@w610
-uploaded the swf to the flash folder using xs3.1
-uploaded the thm to my theme folder in m2 using my computer xD
-themes work but menu remains the same
-is it because i changed my menu.ml not the one i got with ur tuturial but some random 1 from topse =) ???
- but the original flash themes work though =(
- i really like the alien equalizer one =( n the backstreet_rotary but i cant seem 2 get it working =(
-help! =) xD
May 22 at 05:15
hi warrior,
the theme might not be associated with the swf file. have you followed the tutorial of pairing a thm and swf file so that you would have a flash menu? if yes, the filename of the swf file might not be corresponding to the filename of the thm file.
May 22 at 05:17
warrrior dude.. its because the THEME Is not SET to use the flash menu.
the theme that you use must be editing to make use of the SWF File.
its called coupling.. you need to couple a THM With SWF then only they work.
May 22 at 05:17
That can be done with SeTheme Tools.
May 22 at 12:43
That tool didn’t work for me when I tried, so I used Notepad++ & TC.
May 22 at 17:47
yeah i read the coupling thing but i d get the thm files with the menues na ways oh well no wi have sumtin 2 do =) go tell ya if it work =D
May 22 at 18:17
=O it was alwready coupled =(
=(
May 22 at 18:20
well it had that line alwready =( i give up =(
May 22 at 19:17
woi =) =) =) dont worry got it 2 work =D deleted all my flash files except the original ……then i couldnt acess my menu..beacause my theme was set to one of those =( xD….. so i placed back all my flash files wit the new ones n it worked xD thnx 4 help btw
May 22 at 19:25
Never give up! If I could do it, then so can you!
That’s it. 
What I did was simple: had TC UP ( http://tcup.pl/ ) on my pc, with it, I opened the thm file (you can use WinRAR, too). Open a working coupled theme with that and see its Theme.xml. Search for “.swf”. It should take you to its wallpaper and to this:
May 26 at 16:31
peti, i uploded the layout.xml i got from sek750 to my phone hoping to change the font size and now the layout is crazy. i’m thinking of getting the whole W660 FS and flash it to my phone. my firmware is R6AD001 (chinese) and the firmware on (sek750) is R8BB001. what do you think will happen? do i have to flash the firmware also?
(i’ve tried the layout_original but still my phone’s layout is crazy)
W660_R8BB001_FS_CENT_EUROPE_RED52.rar
is that the main FS for W660?
May 27 at 05:29
sek750? You mean the site or the phone type?
Using other phone’s layout makes the phone go stupid, however, restoring the original for the phone fixes that. Also reflashing FS (and custpack) will help.
It is better to use main and fs from the same version, also cent_europe doesn’t have chinese language in it…
May 27 at 14:06
sek750 (the site) i thought layout.xml is all the same. i can’t seem to find the original one. so can i just flash the main FS without flashing the main firmware?
also can u explain to me the custpack method
May 27 at 16:05
“just flash the main FS without flashing the main firmware”.. just flash fs and the custpack. Be careful, it deletes your contacts, settings, files from phone memory. The whole process is written in crossflashing, k550 to w610.
May 28 at 09:41
where can i download this custpack? can’t i just backup my phone contacts and files to MC and then just flash the FS?
May 28 at 09:55
I can’t seem to find this w660 custpack
May 28 at 10:11
so i see, after i flash the FS, i also need to flash own_custpack, if not there’s going to be a config error message. is it?
May 28 at 14:05
Correctly. To backup contacts, use MyPhoneExplorer. To get a custpack, try my site, seflashing.extra.hu.
May 29 at 07:18
My phone’s is all okay now. even though i didn’t do it u’r way, your explanation really helps. thanks for the explanation though.
thanks a lot dude.

how to disable headset when I turn on the radio??
Jun 07 at 04:43
go to radio and in options select the option to turn on speaker.
headset will go off and you get the sound output from the phone back speaker.

How to activate the radio with out headset???
thanks
Jun 09 at 05:26
You must apply a patch to do it. But it is useless, you rarely find radio stations then…
Jun 09 at 17:58
is there any patche so that we can save flash menus in memory card instead of “/tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash/*** .swf files her***” ?????
Jun 09 at 18:21
There are such patches. To move flash menus, walkman skins, acoustics, camdriver to new directories in Other folder in the PHONE MEMORY, no memory stick can be used.
Those patches are phone and fw dependent, so you’ll have to get your own from somewhere, I have them only for W610 R6BC002.

Hi akshay
I have been trying to fix this problem for two days without luck, so I’m asking for some help.
I have a CID36 K750i phone, and it does not have any Camera driver installed, and I am unable to install it.
When I open the camera shutter I see a black screen with some camera settings that quickly exits out, and when I select Camera in the phone menu the screen just flashes and nothing happens. I have opened up my phone multiple times and reconnected all the cables, so I don’t think the problem lies with a faulty Flex cable because opening the camera shutter triggers camera mode, it just doesn’t do anything since there is no camera driver installed…
i installed w610i camera driver in my settings.
now it shows
Uploading file /ifs/settings/camera/camdriver0.dat
Command: Error 0×03
Done uploading
wat to do plz help me
Jun 20 at 10:54
plz help me as soon as possible
Jun 20 at 14:12
W610 cam driver won’t work on K750!!
Reflash FS and CDA, it will reinstall everything, cam driver too.
Jun 21 at 19:54
Hi, does the phone have to be debranded in order to customize it?
Jun 21 at 21:01
Most likely not, but it is service provider dependent. Some of them restrict using flash menus just like that, so it is better to debrand first. Besides you get rid of all the trash they installed on your phone.
Jun 21 at 21:13
Ok thanks, once i debrand the phone is there a way i can rebrand it back to factory condition. My phone is a R7AC001 and CID RED52. I found this firmware and just wanted to make sure it was fine on the seusers website
Jun 21 at 22:40
Well it is pretty complicated, but why not… You first apply the quick access patch on your main fw, you can use a different main too, so first flash that on, if necessary. Use JDFlasher to access the phone’s fs in qa2020 mode, that way you can download files. You need the customization files, form tpa/preset/custom, also branded stuff at tpa/user. Better download whole fs from phone.
You can restore them I think when you rebrand.

When adding new drivers and acoustics do i replace the current ones already inside my phone?
Jun 29 at 20:50
Your software, XS++ or FAR Maneger overwrites the old files.
Jun 30 at 00:10
So when adding acoustics then do i upload each file seperately or just upload the folder
Jun 30 at 00:42
I always use JDFlasher. On the left I open the place in the phone and on the right I open the dir on my pc. Then I press * and then F5 and wait till it copies over everything.
Jun 30 at 00:44
Where can i find the latest camera driver for w580i? and how do i add it?
Jun 30 at 00:46
You can find such stuff at se-nse and seusers, mainly. Upload to ifs/settings/camera/ as camdriver0.dat.
Jun 30 at 01:24
And how can i tell if it actually successfully updated the driver? uder ifs/settings/camera i already have something labeled camdriver0.dat. Also when i went on se-nse they didnt have one for w580i. can i use some other phones driver on my w580i?
Jun 30 at 04:35
yeah only made for w580 drivers work.
Jun 30 at 20:18
Hey i was looking up WTF light effect but have no clue on how to add them on my phone. i found this tutorial but doesnt make sense to me http://walkmans.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/lighteffectstutorial.png
Can you help me on this
Jun 30 at 21:25
Well that’s a very lame tutorial. Now use JDFlasher in bfs mode to download files from phone FS, from tpa/preset/system/lighteffect/contacteffects dir. You can use any of those effects for system effects. Like take Techno.ble, rename it to any of the filenames on the right side, like ALARM.BLE. Upload that to tpa/preset/system/lighteffect/systemeffects.
Jun 30 at 22:50
Thanks Peti, appreciate it!!!! But like i saw some videos on youtube and how do they do all those kewl lighteffect on standby? What will changin techno.ble to ALARM.BLE do? will it change the lights of the alarm only?
Jul 01 at 00:11
Yes, but ALARM was just an example, you can change all of those files.
Jul 01 at 00:28
In the videos the lights flash, its like a wave, from right to left. how do they do that?
Jul 01 at 01:34
I don’t know, that’s W580 and I have K550@W610. Can’t you set that effect for calls?:O
Jul 01 at 02:54
Yes, it shows in the video here is the link http://youtube.com/watch?v=eOJ30Fg0lSE&feature=related
Do you think you can find out how i could do this?
Jul 01 at 10:23
He used this: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/9106/depeha/lighteffects/contacteffects.rar
Repleaced all system effects with these, I suppose.
If it won’t work, ask him for details.

hi akshay,
i’m a newbie to flashing and patching.to me,ur tutorials were very useful.thnx 4 d gud job.pls tell me which acoustics sound loud n clear in k550i.
Jul 02 at 12:16
K550? Better crossflash to W610, to have Walkman 2.0.
Then use W880 acoustics. Get it from seflashing.extra.hu / pimping.

It won’t have flash menus, K810 doesn’t support them.
