enhance ur w700i wid new acoustic driver, increased sms capacity

Warning: This tutorial deals wid flashing the firmware of ur phone. Doing so will void ur warranty. If u dunno what u are doing, DO NOT proceed. Nobody can be held responsible if something goes wrong. Please backup everything stored in ur phone before flashing (files, contacts, organiser, sms everything!). You may take a backup of you data with this software, My phone explorer: *www.fjsoft.at/files/MyPhoneExplorer_Setup_1.5.9.exe

Tutorial 1: Flash to W700 R1CA021
Now, heres a step by step guide on flashing your fone to W700 R1CA021 (if u haf r1db firmware). if you already haf r1ca then proceed to step 4 after step 1.

Download these files first…XS++,USB Flash and FAR manager from here (from the flashing and firmware files folder)
*www.4shared.com/dir/2189851/9c5792f/sharing.html

EDIT: A newer version of XS++, with more features and stability, can be downloaded here: *www.4shared.com/file/29498248/bc41510b/XS_31_Final.html

W700 firmware files with customization pack from here(download all 3 files):
*www.4shared.com/dir/2189851/9c5792f/sharing.html
Goto the flashing and firmware files folder and download these 3 files: W700_R1CA021_MAIN_EU_1.mbn, W700_R1CA021_FS_EMEA_6_RED49.fbn and W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6.rar

super LOUD speaker driver…. Farfield_highest_quality.rar (acoustics folder):
*www.4shared.com/dir/2189851/9c5792f/sharing.html

after downloading, unpack all the files .rar files using WinRar.

STEP1: Installing USB Flash Driver.

Turn off your phone. Remove SIM and memory card, and re-insert battery. Do not turn ON.
Now open the program XS++ . Click START. While pressing and holding the ‘c’ button on your fone’s keypad, insert USB cable. Windows will detect a new hardware and ‘Install new hardware’ wizard pops up. Release the ‘c’ button. In the wizard, click ‘no, not at this time’ and next. Choose to install from a specified location and click next. Under ‘search for the best drivers to install’, check ‘include this location in the search’. Under ‘browse’, choose the path to the unpacked folder of USB Flash Driver. Now click next and let the windows install the driver. After installing the driver, close XS++ and disconnect phone and turn it off in case it has switched on. Remove battery for 2 seconds and re-insert it (to refresh your phone).
Now your phone is ready to be flashed.

Again open XS++, click START, and insert cable while pressing ‘c’ the same way as before. Your fone gets detected and on the left side of the screen, you get the detailed info of your phone including the EROM CID number, IMEI, firmware etc. IMP: the term RED should appear in the screen for u to continue the tutorial!

STEP2: Flashing MAIN.
In XS++ window, check Flash Main, browse and select file ‘W700_R1CA021_MAIN_EU_1.mbn’ that u downloaded. Now hit flash. After completion of the process, unplug fone and close XS++. Take out and re-insert battery in the interval of 2 seconds to refresh the fone.
STEP3: Flashing FS.
Now Open XS++ and connect fone the same way as before. Check the Flash FilesSytem Tab. Browse and select the files ‘W700_R1CA021_FS_EMEA_6_RED49.fbn’ that u downloaded. Now hit flash. After completion, unplug fone, re-insert battery to refresh.

STEP 4: Customizing FS.
After unpacking, copy the customization folder ‘W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6’ you downloaded into the FAR manager folder. also copy the farfield_play.apf super loud driver in to the same folder.
Now that we’ve flashed FS, we need to install customization (regional) files in FS to make ur fone work. To access the fone’s FS, we have a program called FAR manager.
But first we must make our fone compatible with FAR manager. To do this, we flash a patch to our MAIN firmware using XS++. Open XS++, connect fone. Now as we did before, check the Flash MAIN. Now browse(‘…’) to FAR manager folder and goto Plugins folder. select the file ‘k750w800_r2e_dcu.49r.ssw’ as MAIN file and hit flash. This will take 3 seconds. Unplug fone and close XS++ when it displays ‘Finishing Flash’. Take out and re-insert battery to refresh.
Now open FAR manager program, and press F11 key, select the SEFP plugin. in the following popup window, select DCU-60 cable, speed:921600 and boot script as K750_w800_cid49 (make sure u don’t select K750_w800_CID36 by mistake). Now click ‘Enter the Matrix’. In the following window, it asks you to connect fone just the way u connected to XS++ (by holding ‘c’ bla blah blah!).

FAR will detect your fone and 2 folders will appear, FLASH and FS. Double click on FS and let it process for a couple of minutes. Now you have entered the File Sysytem of your fone…Congrats! You’re a hacker now! Many folders are displayed there. The folders on the left side of the FAR manager screen represent ur fone’s filesystem (FS). The right side of your screen displays the FAR manager folder (on ur PCs hard drive) that u just downloaded. The left side displays folders (‘..’,ifs,card,tpa,etc etc…). Here the ‘..’ represents the root of the directory(i.e. u can go back to previous folders by clicking this). On the right side (on hard drive folder FAR) goto ‘W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6’ folder. there is a subfolder called ‘tpa’ inside. Now by clicking and holding this folder, drag it to the left side of the screen onto the ‘..’ (that represents root directory). Make sure u don’t drag it over any other folders . in the new popup, click ‘copy’ and wait for a few seconds as your customization files get copied into the FS. Now that the files have been copied, lets play around.
We are already inside the FS so why not take this opportunity to increase the speaker sound of our fones…. Inside FS, goto folder ifs>settings>acoustic>. The files that are being displayed are your fones sound drivers. Search for the file named ‘farfield_play.apf’ and delete it. Now copy the ‘farfield_play.apf’ in FAR folder (on hard drive) to this acoustic folder by just dragging it to anywhere on the left side of the screen. Click ‘..’ in FS to go back to previous folders. Continue clicking ‘..’ in previous folders until it asks you to ‘Shutdown The CSFS loader’. Hit ‘YES’ and close FAR. Unplug fone and re-insert battery to refresh.

Now we need to unpatch the MAIN that we did using XS++. Again open FAR, connect fone the same way as we did before until you reach the screen that displays FLASH and FS folders. This time, double click on FLASH. Now you enter another screen that displays ‘memory’. Ignore that. On the right side (hard drive) inside FAR folder, goto folder Plugins>REST. Look for the file named ‘REST_W700_R1CA021’. Select and drag the file to anywhere on the left side of the screen and click on ‘copy’ and then ‘flash’. In the following popup click ‘close’. Close FAR and unplug fone.
Re-insert SIM and battery and turn your fone ON. Wait for few minutes as it takes time to process the new firmware. YOUR DONE! Enjoy the Mega-bass in headsets and super loud speaker by playing media player without headsets!!!

Edit: Place the far manager in c:\program files. Then goto c:\program files\far\plugins\sepp and double click on sepp.0.10.51patch.exe. It'll run the command prompt and patch certain files. Be sure to place far manager in c:\program files only!

I used the drivers mentioned in this tuturial, but was not satisfied wid the output. So I searched se-nse.net forums and got another pack. I'm uploading it on rapidshare. I found these better on my phone. Here's the link:
*rapidshare.com/files/25201533/best_acoustic_pack.rar.html

You may try both and use the one that suits u better!

The last step of unpatching didn't work on my phone. My phone was dead after I performed the steps indicated. So i again went thru the whole procedure and instead of unpatching from within far manager, I again flashed only the main firmware thru XS++ (NOT the FS, filesystem otherwise it'll undo what u did!). It took abt 1.5 mins more than whats in this tutorial but I got my phone back with updated drivers, good megabass and LOUD audio o/p from the onboard speakers, comparable to n70me and w550i!

Tutorial 2: Increase the SMS storage capacity

INCREASE SMS CAPACITY
TO INCREASE SMS CAPACITY......

1.do the same as we did for increasing volume.....
2.but in FAR manager,instead of going to ifs/settings/acoustics.....go to ifs/settings/messaging....
3.select pref_store.txt and press F4to edit it....
4.there wud be /sms data written there......change it to /tpa and then press F2 to save and then F10 to quit.....
5.now shut down the FAR manager.....and then do wat we do with XS++ in the end.......according to the guide....

PS: This will also work on w810i (and possibly Z550i and W300i too), but you need to find the right set of files. Unless you haf the relevant files, plz DO NOT try this! Jus a li'l bit searching and you'll haf all those files. The acoustic drivers are really good plus they are independent of phone models. All those complaining that the w810i's volume is low will be amazed to see this! Even all those who are still suffering with the hiss can use this pack.

************************************************************************

CAUTION: Guys, plz backup all your files. All the firmware files haf been taken down from 4shared.com. Dunno if someone goofed up.

Even se-nse.net has taken them down due to lack of hosting solutions! They may take time to come up with it again. So keep all the files in a safe place (btw, I may need them from you guys as I don't haf a copy!!

So guard them well!).

Also ensure FAR Manager is working; sometimes it just doesn't work, mebbe due to problem in files or windows (yeah dunno how but windows messes up wid some files and SEPP plugin doesn't load). The only solution to this problem is reloading of windows. So once a while keep checking all the files.

Nice one and a long one too. Very helpful. But more feedback needed. And does this violate the warranty.

its long coz the first part includes the common procedure to be followed for messing around anything. the post also includes another tut. i've given my feedback. i like it. but even wid the other acoustic drivers the treble during in-call is less. i'm on the hunt for a better in-call driver. well, everyone may not observe it, its my personal opinion.

yes, if u take a modded phone to service center to claim warranty it stands void! but 99% times nothing major will happen. u can always restore the phone software thru SEUS and claim warranty!

Thanks.

update: i'm stil experimenting wid the handset acoustic files (the driver responsible for sound o/p from the earpiece during an on-going call) i replaced the modded louder ones wid the original r1ca ones. the loudness is not there but clarity sure is. will try out more.

increased the sms storage capacity to 32000 sms. gotta test that.... anything over 232 msgs and its working!

i changed the menu icons wid the lava theme. i'm uploading the file on rapidshare. lava:
*rapidshare.com/files/25229890/Lava_desktop.zip.html

wid this desktop, themes wid dark backgrounds look good.

follow the step4 and enter far manager. now copy all the files from the lava folder (all gifs and menu.ml) to tpa/preset/system/menu. be sure to backup the original menu.ml from the phone to hard disk. follow the steps to come out of far manager. then flash ur phone wid the MAIN firmware. ur phone is now ready. i'm attaching the menu pics after flashing. sorry for the crappy pics!

update: 11/04/07

finally satisfied wid these earpiece acoustic drivers. i'm uploading the 2 earpiece drivers, unzip them and place them in ifs>settings>acoustic> alongwid already existing files. the link:

*rapidshare.com/files/25383305/handset_call.zip.html

i also changed the volume and sounds of failure and delivery report tones. u may wanna try them. they need to be placed in: tpa>preset>system>sound alongwid already existing files. this is the folder where u can modify all the internal tones of the phone. take a backup of this folder first. then u can edit them. the cam shutter shound, connecting, msg tones and hell lotsa ones... here is the link for the 2 modded files:

*rapidshare.com/files/25383292/cust_sounds.zip.html

ps: backup backup backup first!!!

@IR dude ..thnx

But im stuck at the following step
Now open FAR manager program, and press F11 key, select the SEFP plugin. in the following popup window, select DCU-60 cable, speed:921600 and boot script as K750_w800_cid49 (make sure u don’t select K750_w800_CID36 by mistake). Now click ‘Enter the Matrix’. In the following window, it asks you to connect fone just the way u connected to XS++ (by holding ‘c’ bla blah blah!).

Plz help me. Im not able to get to the selections like DCU-60. ANd how to select the SEFP plugin??Its very urgent and im in middle of the flashing.

My phone seems dead and nothin happens when i try to turn on. I tried flashin with the R1CA21 from REST folder, but no use.
Plz help yaar.

ok do this... place the far manager in c/program files/. goto /c/prog files/far/plugins/sepp and double click on sepp.0.10.51patch.exe. it'll run and command prompt and patch certain files. try after that. be sure to place far manager in /c/prog files only!

Ok, sorry..my mistake...Ive got the step nd will give my result in a momemt. Thnx buddy.
And now my phone is dead. Will it be Ok after the steps?

yeah... just make sure that the entry sepp is there when u press f11 for the plugins option after doing these steps.

Now i get the following error message when i try to access the FS folder.
*img133.imageshack.us/img133/1193/36198332ob4.th.jpg

what to do?

start over again.... delete the far mgr folder. extract it again to prog files then apply the sepp patch and try again....

@infra_red_dude
thnx its workin....i wudve repped u many times if it hasn't been disabled
im on my next steps
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

how to back up the menu.ml while flashing the menu items??its almost finished.
And shud i copy the gif files also into the menu folder?

drag and drop the whole tpa and ifs folder from the phone to hard disk to take a backup. this way u can fiddle wid anything and also be sure to haf a backup of the whole file system. yes u need the new menu.ml and also the gif files in the same folder for the new menu stlye.

for more menu styles head to this:
*forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=3716&hl=pimp+menu

so cud u get it working??

Ok.I have succesfully flashed new firmware.But later when i try to increase the SMS capacity or when i try to change menu style,iam getting blue screen!
As soon as i double click on FS in far,phone starts automatically and BSOD appears on my comp.I tried deleting and patching the SEFP but still i get same error every time.
But Iam able to USE my mobile.

^^someone Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if u are able to use mobile then its not flashed properly wid the breaker (the k750w800_r2e_dcu.49r.ssw file) start over again. extract the files again and try. when u flash wid the dummy breaker firmware its not usable!

Thanks dude!I have done it succesfully.Do you know any other mods?
And can we use use flash menus(not the gifs)in w700i?

no sir... flashlite (and flash menus) are not supported by w700i.

Thats sad.Then is it possible to edit the operator name?Like placing "Digit" in place of "Hutch"?

yeah u can do it. u gotta edit the layout.xml. just check out. fiddle around wid it... at least u can remove the operator name... thats possible!

One more..........when we are using few Java apps like mobyexplorer,file protect,etc.It keeps on asking "Whether you want this app to read the files",thats damn annoying.So is it possible to get rid of those permissions?
And any way to lock messages?
If you know anyother mods please share with us.

yeah there is a certificate call halmer cert. u need to install it onto ur phone then sign all those annoying java apps on ur comp using a signing software wid the hamler cert. then transfer it to ur phone so remove all those nags. i'm searching for that for w700i. i know it can be done in w810i. need more time.. bit busy these dayz...

i'll let u kno if i'm successful in anything. meanwhile u can keep browing the se-nse forums. excellant resources available there....

are the loudness drivers same for earphones and speaker?
i mean, would installing the loudness driver effect the quality of earphones ones?
i like the earphone sound, won't want the sound quality to be destroyed.

would try it though

there are different files for all these (loudspeaker, headset while listening to audio, headset during a call, earpiece, loudspeaker wid fm). so u can selectively install the drivers for that particular entity. its all upto ur choice!

actually if u are on r1db firmware then its better to upgrade the headset driver too. dunno what happned to SE but they are suppressing the audio thru the headset wid their recent firmware (for almost all phones).. in SE's term this thing is called automatic volume leveller!!! its known to kill megabass in the K series and lower the volume in W series.

how to know which firmware i am using?

also, i seem to have lost all of mine contacts settings etc... after flashing
i think u should edit the first post and put up a warning about this..

press these keys to know abt ur firmware: >*<<*<*

the > & < indicate the joystick press.

of corz buddy, flashing a firmware will reset the phone completely! anyways thanks for the suggestion. i'll edit the tutorial. btw, were u successful in flashing?

hmm, SEUS don't delete it, but i use myPhoneExplorer to backup all data. preety nifty, so no harm done.

in fact,i think u should edit to post and give link to myphone explorer which backups all data including calendar, mails, contact, notes, tasks etc etc.

*www.fjsoft.at/files/MyPhoneExplorer_Setup_1.5.9.exe

yea, i was sucessful in flashing, the sound is quite good.amazed me too.

however, i feel that the camera quality has degraded.is this firmare the newset one?because i had updated my phone last week and found the camera colour balance has improved quite a lot.however this firmare has the old ones.

so, are there any camera drivers on net?

yes sir! the post has been edited and the MPE has been added

yes r1ca is older than r1db firmware. r1ca has cam ver2.3 while r1db has cam ver2.4. however i cud notice no change in pic quality after i flashed back to r1ca. after seeing ur post abt white balance i too am curious to test the cam wid the 2 drivers very finely. however i've been unsuccessful in find the ver.2.4 drivers. i think ppl who haf not yet tried out this mod can extract and upload the cam driver using far manager and breaker firmware!

yes sir.. seus doesn't delete them.. it takes a backup of data and restores it later... afterall a professioanlly coded software by se!

i'm uploading the 2 layout.xml files. one is for removing the annoying scroll bars and the second is to remove the scroll bars, remove the operator name and also change the fonts used in the menu.

i'm also uploading camera driver ver.2.4 ripped off r1db firmware. PLZ DO KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS DRIVER MAY OR MAY NOT WORK WID UR R1CA FIRMWARE. there hasnt been 100% success. some people wid r1ca firmware (including me) were successfuly able to use this driver while some people complained that camera was dead. in any case do TAKE a backup of ur working driver before attempting this. i'm yet to analyse whats been improved in this version. if any of you notice anything do post here.

1) removal for scroll bar only:
*rapidshare.com/files/27516088/layout.xml.html

2) removal of scroll bar, operator name + new font:
*rapidshare.com/files/27516539/layout.xml.html

3) camera driver version 2.4:
*rapidshare.com/files/27517177/camdriver0.dat.html

place the layout.xml file in: /tpa/system/layout (take backup first!)

place the camera driver in: /ifs/settings/camera

cheers, got the cam driver.
i own 2 W700i and was trying to get the driver from the non hacked one.

would try it out this weekend

hi

dear infrared dude:
1- wud u pls tell me if there is a way i can increase light duration of my
w700i LCD by Farmanager or other softwares?(i mean the time that the light of my mobile LCD is on).
2- is there a way i can use my w700i as a remote control like K750 by its infrared?

1) its an undocumented feature. so you'll hafta devote some time and try to find it in one of the conifiguration files. i haf no idea in which config file is it stored. u can try to search and modify the display driver and see if it works. again, take backup.

2) u can use it as a remote via BT, but infra red? like how? can u elaborate it further as to how did u use the k750i as remote via IR?

the flashing community has put up loads of drivers and stuff for benefit of all, get it from here
*www.4shared.com/dir/2189851/9c5792f/sharing.html

K

thnx infrared dude.u seem very expert.
1-sorry,i saw remote control software for symbian
mobiles but sotware for using
mobile as a webcam in different sites like
(*www.takyahoo.com/Cat/20.aspx) and the name
of software is "K700 webcam" that is usable for models
k750,K700,w800 & etc but unfortunately not for w700.
do u have way for this problem?
2-is it possible to undo all the changes we've done
with the farmanager or XS++ by a master reset on the
mobile set?

1) remote control to control what? if its TV then NO. if its ur computer thru bluetooth then yes!

i think the k700 webcam works for w700 too. sorry i'm on a holiday for a week so no chance of testing. i'll get back to you when i return and do some tests.

3) NO. a master reset won't bring back the changes. u'll hafta follow the procedure till step 4 for restoring ur phone back to the factory default settings running the r1ca firmware. its completely safe. if this doesn't work then u haf official SEUS which will restore ur phone back. so no worries!

B

Hey infra red dude and all the others....

A big thank you, I've succesfully modded my phone and man does it rock...

K

have a good hollyday infra_red_dude.
1-yeah i meant using infrared for remote control of TV and not a bluetooth control.
In the K700 software for mobile as a webcam,there r a lot of models of nokia & sonyericsson mentioned in the program except W700i & some other models.
2-u mean 4 restoring i should follow all the stages from the first stage to copying REST_W700_R1CA021 at the end and etc (of course without replacing additional features like ‘farfield_play.apf’ & ... in the far manager)?
3-is SEUS a software?wud u pls guide me the link of download and how to use?

i forgot to ask:
i did all the stages 4 increasing my mobile sounds by "best acaustic pack" link.now all the sounds r excellent,but i need a lower key sound.what shall i do?

1) if k700 webcam doesn't haf an entry for w700i then try selecting k750i or w800i. mostly, it'll work.

2) yea, u'll hafta flash the Main, then FS and then customise it widout replacing any additional files.

3) yes, seus is sony ericsson update service. u'll need the supplied dcu60 cable and an active internet connection. it'll download the main, fs and customisation files (all about 20-25mb) and flash ur phone.

4) u can use the settings to lower it to the lowest volume. since it utilises the onboard speaker and the farfield driver controls the volume and quality on the onboard speaker theres no other way to tone down the keyvolume other than using the settings option in the phone.

one possible way cud be to find the sound file for the key sound in the /tpa folder, extract it. use a software like psmplay to edit the midi file (lower its volume) and then put it back into phone. try it.

1) SEUS:

can I upgrade acoustic driver while retaining my r1db firmware or I should downgrade first to r1ca only? I mean, is there any alternative?
Thanks in advance

^^^ well u can do it.. no probs.. but the reason why we are downgrading to r1ca from r1db is that... SE intro'd somthing called as "automatic volume leveller" in the r1db firmware. in other terms read this feature as "volume suppressor". it does more harm than good. the megabass is suppressed to quite an extent too. so to fully utiltise the driver, use a firmware that is pure...

im trying the links.
thnx infrared-red-dude

S

bIG tROUBLE. i AM NOT ABLE TO FLASH THE k750w800_r2e_dcu.49r.ssw
I get "finishing Flash" but it hangs there.
Please note the whole process failed inbetween once due to power failure and I had to start over again.
Please help.

well after the msg "finishing flash", wait for abt 5 secs and just press the stop button and disconnect the phone when it says. then replace the battery and continue in far manager. try it.....

S

morning it didn't work....Tried now (even before I saw ur msg

) works fine....was ina hurry to get teh phone back online....dunno howmany calls I missed....will have to try teh best acoustics and other stuffs later....

One more thing....I've seen in W800i and W550i, The alignment of teh menu items change according to teh theme selected. Any idea about this?

i think u meant, "in w810i and w550i". this is coz these phones support flashlite themes hence the position of menu icons can be changed. flashlite support is not available for w700i. hence the answer to ur question is, NO.

K

yeah .infra-red my w700 worked wid webcam by choosing items of w800-k750 in "k700 webcam" software.

S

Any idea how to create a theme?

u need to create gifs and then include the entries in menu.ml

S

i mean a .thm file

oh, use the sony ericsson theme editor. its an official software available on SE developer site or here:

*www.softpedia.com/get/Mobile-Phone-Tools/Sony-Ericsson/Sony-Ericsson-Themes-Creator.shtml

edit: this is the official se site where theme editor 3.11 is available:

omg!i've got a big problem!now when i turn on my phone and enter the pin and the phone lock code theres that message :"Configuration error. Please contact your network operator or service centre."
PLS help!i can't do anything..i can just turn off

i also flashed the frimware again many times!!

EDIT: omg!!!my phone works again..i don't know why..i tried the steps again..and now it works!!!but i can not choose the german language..how i can do this?i can't choose it..there are only other languages

u get this error when u don't properly put in the configuration (customisation) files in the /tpa folder. flashing on the firmware doesn't help. perform these steps again after flashing the main and fs firmware again:

FAR will detect your fone and 2 folders will appear, FLASH and FS. Double click on FS and let it process for a couple of minutes. Now you have entered the File Sysytem of your fone…Congrats! You’re a hacker now! Many folders are displayed there. The folders on the left side of the FAR manager screen represent ur fone’s filesystem (FS). The right side of your screen displays the FAR manager folder (on ur PCs hard drive) that u just downloaded. The left side displays folders (‘..’,ifs,card,tpa,etc etc…). Here the ‘..’ represents the root of the directory(i.e. u can go back to previous folders by clicking this). On the right side (on hard drive folder FAR) goto ‘W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6’ folder. there is a subfolder called ‘tpa’ inside. Now by clicking and holding this folder, drag it to the left side of the screen onto the ‘..’ (that represents root directory). Make sure u don’t drag it over any other folders . in the new popup, click ‘copy’ and wait for a few seconds as your customization files get copied into the FS. Now that the files have been copied, lets play around.
We are already inside the FS so why not take this opportunity to increase the speaker sound of our fones…. Inside FS, goto folder ifs>settings>acoustic>. The files that are being displayed are your fones sound drivers. Search for the file named ‘farfield_play.apf’ and delete it. Now copy the ‘farfield_play.apf’ in FAR folder (on hard drive) to this acoustic folder by just dragging it to anywhere on the left side of the screen. Click ‘..’ in FS to go back to previous folders. Continue clicking ‘..’ in previous folders until it asks you to ‘Shutdown The CSFS loader’. Hit ‘YES’ and close FAR. Unplug fone and re-insert battery to refresh.

Now we need to unpatch the MAIN that we did using XS++. Again open FAR, connect fone the same way as we did before until you reach the screen that displays FLASH and FS folders. This time, double click on FLASH. Now you enter another screen that displays ‘memory’. Ignore that. On the right side (hard drive) inside FAR folder, goto folder Plugins>REST. Look for the file named ‘REST_W700_R1CA021’. Select and drag the file to anywhere on the left side of the screen and click on ‘copy’ and then ‘flash’. In the following popup click ‘close’. Close FAR and unplug fone.

i can not choose the german language..how i can do this?i can't choose it..there are only other languages

afaik, this customisation pack doesn't include the german language. in fact even my phone out of the box din haf german lingo. did u get ur phone from some other country or is it a grey market purchase?

R

so where i can get the german language?i live in austria..so i bought it here..and in austria people speak german ^^..hope you know where austria is xD...under germany..middle-europe

yeah pal, since this is an indian forum and most are in india hence i asked u this question. the models which are sold here do not haf the german lingo support. well, i need to know what cda number correponds to the german lingo. need sometime to go about searching it, bro......

R

sry..but i don't know much about se phones..i can only do things with a tutorial...would be nice if i could get one to get the germane language back in my phone again...i don't know what i havew to search now

ok after some research i found out that Europe2,3 and 5 haf german language packs. get someone's SE phone who's in ur region and press these keys:
>*<<*<*
(< = left joystick, > = right joystick)
goto service info>software info and plz provide these info:
firmware (e.q *r1ca021, r1db), erom, customisation.
after knowing which customisation the phones in ur region use, we'll hafta search the net for those customisation packs,*main*and*FS then load it into ur phone to get the german language back.

*also ppl who were asking abt removing the java security prompts haf a look into this thread:
*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59438
**************************************************************************
edit: ok, i've found the customisation files for german language. the zip file i'm uploading contains the Europe 2, 3 and 5 customisation files wid german language.
*
now we are left wid 2 tasks:
1) to find out which of these 3 is applicable to SE phones in ur region
2) after ascertaining which, we need to find the corresponding MAIN and FS firmware files and then u need to follow the exact the proc indicated in the 1st page of this thread but wid the 3 files of ur region (MAIN, FS and customisation).
*
here are the customisations files:
*rapidshare.com/files/35061770/w700i_europe_235.zip.html

Do not use this unless u flash wid the corresponding MAIN and FS files. jus download and keep them wid u as of now and get back to me wid the info i've asked. u'll soon get back german lingo!

hey buddy! u are confused. this is the info of your phone. i need the exact info from another phone which is being used in ur region which has the german lingo (mebbe ur fren's or relative's SE phone, for e.g).

R

oh..does it have to be a w700i ?

if possible, yes! that'll save us quite an effort. even if its not we can get back ur german lingo thru trial and error!

R

hmm..thats not good..i don't know anybody who have an w700i..but maybe i could go to an phoneshop and look if theres a w700i..but thx for helping me =)

^^^ yeah, plz do that!

meanwhile i'll try finding all the compatible MAIN and FS firmware files which have german lingo support

one word of thought, do u still haf warranty for ur w700i?

Hey infra red dude,i have posted a query in your removing java permissions thread.Please look in to that

R

yes..why are you asking ^^?i hope my phone won't brick

i'll soon get the informations you want

hehe.. dun worry man. SE phone can't be bricked unless u physically damage it!!!

::flash news::

slayer has modded the camdriver for w700i. its in beta stages. features:

faster saving times, more sharpness.

download it from here:
*rapidshare.com/files/36465517/camdriver_modded.zip.html

note: it is still in beta stage. so it may or may not work properly for u. take a backup of ur working driver first. do post the bugs here if u notice any.

thanks to slayer, from the w700i community

this is a modpack for w810 users. it has almost everything in the FS modded. since dtox owns a 810i i'm sure he'll help u wid any queries.

One more..........when we are using few Java apps like mobyexplorer,file protect,etc.It keeps on asking "Whether you want this app to read the files",thats damn annoying.So is it possible to get rid of those permissions?
And any way to lock messages?
If you know anyother mods please share with us.

i have patch for w800 R1BC002 do u want it?

i have 5-6 GB of k750 stuff collected from many sources . i will upload all that in single file as soon as i get 2mbps connection

@ rauli

hey here are the FS files u are looking for!

*www.share2flash.com/index.php?path...jL0Zpcm13YXJlL1c3MDBpL1IxQ0EwMjFfQ0lENDkvRlMv

download one of the FS files (Europe2, 3 or 5) and use the corresponding customisation file (caroline... europe 2, 3 or 5) that i'd uploaded on rapidshare mentioned earlier in this thread. the MAIN firmware file which is mentioned in the first post of this thread will do just fine. u'll need only the matching FS and customisation file.

to decide which outta europe 2,3 and 5 is suitable for u, take a look at this table and decide!

EUROPE_2 English - French - German - Sesotho (South Africa) - Zulu - Turkish
EUROPE_3 English - Danish - Dutch - French - German
EUROPE_5 English - French - German - Italian

good luck! cheers

R

yeah thx man..i'll try that soon...

i have another question..when i make a picture with the camera..theres always a sound when i took the picture..but theres no option to turn that off at my w700..

do you know how to turn that off?

do you know how to turn that off?

take photos in silent mode.

@infra_red_dude: great going man.. i am going to try those beta camera drivers. excelletn thread.

R

no..this does not work..i just treid that

did u update the firmware wid the one i've mentioned in the latest post? if so then mebbe one of the eurpoe 2,3 or 5 doesn't support silenting the cam. however our firmwares here (EU_1 wid emea6 cust.) supporting silenting the cam sound, just keep the phone in silent mode and cam won't make any sound.

u can permanantly remove the cam sound by deleting the cam shutter sound. to do this, break into ur firmware thru XS++ and then goto FAR. navigate to this folder on the phone side: \tpa\preset\system\sound. delete all the camera related sounds to make it completely silent after taking a backup on ur PC. it will lead to complete silence (shutter, burst, timer etc.) or u can selectively delete if u dun want complete silence. detele only camerashutter.3gp

R

sry that i'm posting so late..i did not have any time..but now...i'm a little bit confused now..could you write a little tutorial with the links you already posted for me?
would be nice...and another question...in this forum i can't add rep, right xD?

ok, goto this page: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=54672

follow from setup 2 (as u mite've already done step 1), use the W700_R1CA021_MAIN_EU_1.mbn as mentioned there as the MAIN firmware. For FS, use one of these:

W700_R1CA021_FS_EUROPE_2_RED49.rar
W700_R1CA021_FS_EUROPE_3_RED49.rar
W700_R1CA021_FS_EUROPE_5_RED49.rar

(which outta these depends on the table given above. decide what all languages you want and use the corresponding one, then extract the .rar file wid winrar to get a .fbn file which u'll be using as the FS. this is YOUR FS (German support) file, counter part of W700_R1CA021_FS_EMEA_6_RED49.fbn (no german support) mentioned in the first page of this thread. Hence your FS file shud be that instead of W700_R1CA021_FS_EMEA_6_RED49.fbn for German support.)

download the above mentioned files from this link:
*www.share2flash.com/index.php?path...jL0Zpcm13YXJlL1c3MDBpL1IxQ0EwMjFfQ0lENDkvRlMv

you now complete step 3 mentioned in the first post.

you need to customise ur phone now. download this file and extract it. here, you'll find 3 more files: europe2, europe3, eurpore 5. depending on which FS file you downloaded and used wid ur phone, use the corresponding customisation file (both fS and customisation should be same).

edit: oops forgot to give the link for the customisation files:
*rapidshare.com/files/35061770/w700i_europe_235.zip.html

use this customisation file in place of W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6 mentioned in the first post of this thread. rest all is same. so basically what you are doing here is that you are replacing the original FS and cusomisation files (mentioned in the first post of this thread) wid the ones which support German language.

yeah, rep system has been disabled.

R

yeah thx man!you're the best =)!

im a newbie to this forum and i have a W700i.i had proceeded the aove steps but Stuck at the Far managerand my phone is Dead after flashing . Whenever i opened and selected the sepf plugin .it shows the following error msg

thnks infra red dude but i redownloaded far manager for 5 times and i tried it burt it wont work again the same error occurs.do you have anyother link for tis far manager?

What are the other enhancements that I can do for my W700i

thnks infrared_dud for your kind and support, successfully flashed and modded my mobile. the problem was with my pc. the far manager doesnt seem to work with my pc , so i tried in my pals home. it worked great.wil keep in touch and all the best for your results!!!

incredible indian said:

mostly software mods. few ppl haf done hardware mods. but since its build is almost same as that of w800i and similar to k750i, most of the hardware mods can be applied. i'm posting only the ones which i haf myself tried and succeeded. no time now to try hardware mods. u may refer to sites like se-nse, lasyk.net etc.

@indian_nar
glad that u cud solve the problem. but to find out the cause of the problem. it wil be helpful in helping those who face similar problem in future.

its just a prob with my xp. i reinstalled xp now, far manager works fine!!

Yaar flash and autofocus are not software related so they cant be added..
Your camera should support them!

no, not ifs. when you open the file system in FAR double click on FLASH folder. you'll see an entry MEMORY there. jus drag and drop the files one by one (.vkp) anywhere inside the FLASH folder. you'll get a dialog for the patch application. jus confirm that. however, if you get any mismatch error then back out and don't apply that patch.

as ankur said, autofocus is a hardware implementation.

thanks got that ... in flash folder right .... will try that .... i was just thinkin abt flash that phone has light so it could be used as flash light ... just a wierd idea

i'm sorry shashank. its been quite some time since i fiddled around wid my phone. hafnt got that much time. i will surely try those and post in here when i get my hands on them.

is there some way to remove those vkp updates ....
and i am not able to open SEUS .. i installed flash player 9 but SEUS says wrong version and doesnt open ......
and problem here with opening phone menu when i switch on the phone... says configuration error. please contact your network operator or service centre
whereas i can access the w media player option and even connect to net ....

1) to remove the patches, follow the same procedure as installing it (drag it anywhere inside the FLASH folder in FAR manager) but ensure that the option "REMOVE PATCH" is checked in the dialog box in which you confirm the flash. that'll remove the .vkp patch. you'll need the original .vkp patch for removing. so don't delete them once you flash. you'll need them for removing the patches too.

2) a configuration error means that the customisation pack (custpack) is not properly installed via FAR. jus follow the procedure of installing the custpack in the first page of this thread. it'll be fine.

i got my brand new K790i is there any latest firmware anythin that cud increase it perfomance N looks ??

head straight to SE-NSE.net for modding techniques

lotsa resources for SE phones there.

thx anIRudh

thanks infra red ... u r my saviour .... it worked now i have my fone back ... but the thing with the remove patch is that i cannot check that option at all ... using arrow buttons .... is there some way to set mouse options .. i could not check it using arrow keys .... but anyways thanks .... i dont think i need to unpatch or patchin ...

use space to check the remove patch option or use the mouse. it works just fine

Hey I guess EU and AMERICA don't go together. Don't you haf a corresponding MAIN? where did you download it from?

HEY INFRA RED DUDE8) I'VE BEEN READING UR POSTS ND TRIED COUPLE OF THINGS.NOW PLZ HELP ME OUT,I HAVE A W700i,I CHANGED THE ACOUSTIC PACK,MENU STYLE TO LAVA,CAMERA DRIVER TO 2.4,ALSO THE LAYOUT AS DESCRIBED IN D POSTS:
BUT WHEN I SWITCH D FONE ON,MUSIC PLAYER WORKS FINE BUT WHEN I TRY TO START D FONE ,IT ASKS TO SET THE LANGUAGE ND ON PRESSING THE KEYPAD IT GETS STUCK RIGHT THERE AND I AM UNABLE TO SWITCH OFF THE PHONE EVEN.PLZ HELP ME OUT..........

^^ so phone does not start ??
u can try flashing a new cust pack.. according to the FS the u used..!

Yes, you will need a proper matching Customisation pack (custpack). Its most prolly a mismatch between the Main the the Custpack. What MAIN, FS and CustPack do you use?

X

the main i used was W700_R1CA021_MAIN_EU_1.mbn,FS was W700_R1CA021_FS_EMEA_6_RED49.fbn.
I did it all over again, heres what i did

i flashed the main,refreshed,flashed fs,then opened far,changed the acoustic pack,
then i wanted to install the lava menu ,but the folder "system" was n't present in the W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6 i downloaded after reading the tutorial from page 1
so i instead put the lava files in already present tpa/preset/system/menu
then i closed far,refreshed ,reopened it and flashed the plugin rest_W700_R1CA021 in flash folder.
now when i started the fone,the startup menu is as usual but there are no selection keys,also if i start the player using walkman button the player seems to hang,plz tell me where am i going wrong...........

The Custpack (W700 Carolina) will not haf the system menu. You will need to flash the MAIN and FS first. Then apply the CustPack and then install the acoustic drivers. I think the order of installation is messing up the customize.xml and menu.ml. So do it in that order and report back.

X

but wat about the menu,can't it be changed?
or can u suggest an all in one mod pack that could change various things in the fone at once?
one more thing can't anything be done to the crappy fullscreen video playback of the fone?if h263p0vr.dat file can't be modded,is there a java app which can play a video file smoothly at fullscreen?

1) Yes, it can be changed. After the order in my above post is followed, change the menu by copying the icons and menu.ml to relevant location.

2) No java app will allow that.

X

thanx a lot ir dude for ur kind concern 4 answering ma problems,just one more thing,can't anything be done 4 that crappy video playback

I'm sorry bro. You gotta live with it. You can try encoding videos at various bit rates tho. Something wil surely satisfy you.

X

heya ir dude

,i have wasted whole day 2 fix this,so plz help me out:
i had done a lot of mess in the FS, so i tried to get the original files back in the fone ;downloaded them from your 4shared link
the problem is all the folders and files get copied but the camdriver0.dat file is n't copying,it gets stuck midway in the copyind process.plzzzzzzzzzz help me out.

I suggest you Download a fresh copy of FAR manager and start over. If it doesn't help then start afresh by downloading files and try it on a different PC.

If all else fails, then run SEUS - Sony Ericsson Update Service. 99% of the times, it'll automatically fix things for you.

X

thanx dude,i downloaded the original files 4rm ur 4shared link.reflashed the main and alls been sorted.........

That is good news

im a newbie to this forum and i have a W700i.i had proceeded the aove steps but Stuck at the Far managerand my phone is Dead after flashing . Whenever i opened and selected the sepf plugin .it shows the following error msg
PLUGIN CALL ERROR
EXCEPTION OCCURED EXCEPTION ADDRESS:0x 7C812A58 in module
crd /...\plugins\sepf.dll
THE PLUGIN WILL BE UNLOADED
and then the far manager exits.
infrared dude plz help in this regard even i patched the sefp.dll nut it doesnt works. my phone is dead now. atleast tel me the steps bring back the original config for my phone. thks

infrared dude, i have the same problem here!!

Just find another computer. Everything will work fine

Regarding the firmware for your CDA try here: *www.iprotebe.cz/firmware-w700

P

regarding my problem posted above, i wanted to switch back to my original condition while waiting for the opportunity to use another computer. but it seems that i was unable to flash my original firmware back first.

I've solved my problem when i used XS++ V3.1

the problem is that when i used XS++ V1.2, whenever i want to use the original firmware back by using the MAIN and FS flash, it always says fail to unlock the CS-loader and will start brute forcing.

So i recommend anyone out there to get the latest XS++ here:
*forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=16338

although the functions are exactly the same, i guess there should be some improvements.

Though I've not tested XS++ 3.1; based on your experience I'm updating the first post and including the link to XS++

S

there is no A2dp (no music thro' bluetooth) in w700i is there any hack for it?

^^^ No, unles SE releases a new firmware with A2DP you can't do anything about it

Guys a word or warning: Plz backup all your files. All the firmware files haf been taken down from 4shared.com. Dunno if someone goofed up.

Even se-nse.net has taken them down due to lack of hosting solutions! They may take time to come up with it again. So keep all the files in a safe place (btw, I may need them from you guys as I don't haf a copy!!

So guard them well!).

Also ensure FAR Manager is working; sometimes it just doesn't work, mebbe due to problem in files or windows (yeah dunno how but windows messes up wid some files and SEPP plugin doesn't load). The only solution to this problem is reloading of windows. So once a while keep checking all the files.

Hey Folks, I need some help from you guys. I can't seem to find the firmware files.

Would someone be kind enough to email me the W700i R1CA021 Firmware files? I need the MAIN, FS and Cus. pack. Plz mail them to me at infra_red_dude{a.t}yahoo{d.o.t}co{dot}in

hi sir
its again saying the same thing sir
theres no change in it
plz help me out

If you get a config error, then there can be one and only one reason - not flashing the cust. pack. There is no way that error crops up otherwise. What exactly did you do?

P

i did the same thing as u people said
step1:i flashed the main by using .mbn file which i downloaded
step2:then the .fbn file
step3:customization fs
W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6’ you downloaded into the FAR manager folder. also copy the farfield_play.apf super loud driver in to the same folder.
again opened xs++ n did what all u said
step4:then far manager
two files appear flash n fs
1st i entered fs and did what u said
then copied tpa from W700_Carolina_i_CDA102580_103_EMEA_6
then the whole thing as u said
what should i do now...the sound has improved definetly but i cannot enter the phone...
plz help me out sir

hi sir
its done thank u

Glad your problem is solved

I have been trying to download all the files in the first post but some of them seem to be missing? Do you know where i can get them from? Thanks

I have found most of the fiels now just dont know where to get the acoustic files from any help would be gratefully appreciated

You can try se.nse.net forums. Except the zapf acoustics, all other files will work on the older gen SE phones.

dude i dont hav dis file
REST_W700_R1CA021
where can i get
that 4shared doesn't hav it i think so..
pls help

I'm sorry I myself am searching for the firmware files. The link is down and the files are gone

J

any idea how to increase the number of stored Dialed,received,missed calls?

^^^ I'm sorry.. thats not possible.. at least as of now.

J

also is there any small softie which applies vkp patches i only have xs++ 3.1 now and cant download during day "

You can use FAR Manager to apply vkp patches. Thats what I've used as a base to write thi s tutorial

hi buddy i tried to patch ' radio without earplugs ' but it is not working
i am surprised that all patches are working but not this one
please do me a favour...............

That patch will almost never work. The sole reason for plugging the headset is for it to act as an antenna. If you remove the antenna itself the reception will either be poor or zero.

Btw, we happen to share our names

A

ok thank you
i have patched the increase audio patch
if i want to remove it and want to load the company default then what should i do........

Which patch are you talking about? To uninstall a patch, you need to drag and drop it again in the folder in FAR Manager and chose the option to remove the patch.

Hi Infra_red_dude

Its nice to see this page, i've tried all your tutorial and all works fine, but it still not fixing my phone problem

Previously i've upgraded my w700 software to the latest version using SEUS, but unfortunately after the installation the CAMERA function is not working anymore, its always back to main menu when i press the take picture button. i have tried to downgrade back using your tutorial and its succesfull but the camera still not working.

any advice for this man..

Thanks,
Ozhee

Can you try a different camera driver? Are you sure the hardware is not faulty?

F

i've checked the camera version after upgraded it says ver 2.4 after downgrade its 2.3
do you have other w700 to try?

F

FYI, the vidoe mode is ok, only when i want to take a picture the problem occured

Yes, the newer version is 2.4. It improves on jpeg compression and nothing else. So 2.3 or 2.4 doesn't matter much. You say that you downgraded the firmware to R1CA021 rite? I can't think of why the video mode should work fine while the photo doesn't. Beats me..

Unfortunately I do not haf another W700i to test. I don't use a W700i now.

PS: Could it be so that the firmware you downloaded was corrupt? Can you try downloading the firmware from some other source?

S

Now open FAR manager program, and press F11 key, select the SEFP plugin. in the following popup window, select DCU-60 cable, speed:921600 and boot script as K750_w800_cid49 (make sure u don’t select K750_w800_CID36 by mistake). Now click ‘Enter the Matrix’. In the following window, it asks you to connect fone just the way u connected to XS++ (by holding ‘c’ bla blah blah!).

CANT UNDERSTAND THIS STEP WHEN I CLICK F11 IN FAR MANAGER IT SAY: PLUGIN COMMANDS F4- SET HOT KEY

PLEASE HELP I HAVE FINISHED THE PREVIOUS STEPS.

Which version of FAR Manager to you use? Press the F11 key on the keyboard and the plugin menu will pop-up.

F

hey infra_red_dude

i tried flashing my w700 6 - 7 times but still got the same configuration error
what do i do plz help me out

I'd suggest you try downloading the custpack from a different source. Or I'm am supposing you could even try the new XS++ which prolly has the custpacks for the specific models built in.

K

there is definately an issue wid ur cust pack ... maybe u are not getting the right FS .... try this ... search for those huge cust packs that have all language support and stuff ... that'll definately work ... but the cust will be around 2 mb

thx for the reply its working now with the new xs++ thx again infra_red_dude

FS and custpacks are separate entities.

All the files seem to be taken down, but I really need to use this tutorial. I updated my firmware 2 days ago but later found out it messed with the sound volume. Can you reupload them?

EDIT: I found some fw files there: *www.seusers.com/forum/local_links.php?catid=519
Do they qualify?

EDIT2: I got it working, the files are still there in the first link. Thank you infrared dude! Can you guys suggest any good acoustic packs?
