Converting k750i to w800i

Required things :
Phone XS
w800i firmware (Rapidshare Link , can anyone upload this on some server?)
USB Drivers (attached with this topic)This is very important
Black k750i Phone (CID 49 New modles)

Things to remember -
[IMP]Charge your phone 80% is enough
[IMP]Make sure that you have the Datacable (that one comes with your phone)
:arrow:

Close all application that can hang your computer
:arrow:

Remove your Memory card
:arrow:

Warrenty is void if you flash your phone
:arrow:

Install USB drivers
If your phone is startes when u press 'C' key and plug datacable
Download USBFlash DriversOpen the arhive.Start PhoneXS, enter settings, start Device Manager(inKey+Pause-Break or Control Panel=>System=>Hardware=>Device Manager). Press Flash button. Hold C, Plug in the cable. Unrecognised device should appear in Device Manager. Right Click on it with the mouse and select Update Driver. Point to the directory where you extracted USBFlash Driver. Now close and open again PhoneXS. Switch off the phone

What it changes -
It just changes the media player , menu structure , camera zooming levels and sound level

Advantages -
:arrow:

the 'W' icon for media colour
:arrow:

the Music only mode in startup
:arrow:

Activities menu replaced with Walkman
:arrow:

Radio in loudspeaker
:arrow:

the 'Play' button playes music , without having to insert handsfree
:arrow:

loud music
:arrow:

Walkman media player Organises the music better than old media player
:arrow:

4X Zoom at 2 Megapix
:arrow:

w800i is costly

as compared to k750i
:arrow:

Noone likes w800i colour sceme (except some who like orange , btw i like black)

Disadvantages -
*WARNING!!when i tried deleting some games , the phone restarts automatically ,& hangs up in the starting ne1 else facing this problem please let me know.
*the warrenty is void ofcourse

Process -
1.Extract all files
2. Run Phone XS beta
3.Click File > Start
4.Enter this setting

Tick - Flash main firmware

7.Turn off your phone Remove the Battery . Replace battery. do not turn on the Phone

8.Click Flash

9.Hold 'C' and Plug in the Datacable.

10. the process will start automatically

11.If everything is fine the phone will remain switched off and you will see this

12. If everything goes OK this should appear

13.Now unplug the phone and start .

Now you have w800i in k750i case.

Hey Max..

Nice info man.. Just clarify my doubts..

> Does the flashing change auto focus or the modes, frames etc in the camera in 750i?

> How do I find out my CID number? (of course I bought it recently..)

> What is the worse that could happen if something goes wrong in the middle of the process? I mean u said about risk what is it? what would happen to the mobile?

> If something goes wrong, could we roll back or re-flash it (either with k750i or w800i)? If warranty is void, what should I do if something goes wrong? Do I have to dump my mobile?

> While flashing, Should I keep the sim card in the phone or should I remove it?

> Does everything else work fine? I mean what about the default games? do they change? I liked the 3d flight and tennis game.. and dont want to lose them.

Please let me know as I am interested to do this.

1> No , it don't change camera software . But it degrades the the software from 5.6 to 5.3
But zooming at 4X in large picture mode is good
Autofocus is available.

2>...To find your CID number key in >*<<*<* here goto Service info=>Software info=>scroll to Customisation
Here is written your CID no.

3>you may not be able to start the phone till next flashing

4>since it dont change filesystem nothing is changed , if you want to roll-back juse run SESU

5>keep sim card , if removed it will prompt you to keep

6>you have all the games . it dont even delete the games which you installed before.

an of course

it dont even delete a single contact
it dont even delete a message and all
if you have any problems reply here , btw i have also bought the phone recently

[ander ki baat]the dealer was saying that w800i was Rs.12,000[/ander ki baat]

Thanks Max..

Thats a good info.. three more questions arised.. shooting 'em

> How much time would it take for the total process? I have an AMD 2400+ with 256 mb Ram and geforce 2mx(64 mb) pc.

> Is there a way to upgrade that camera software only?

> I think SEUS upgrades to the latest k750i firmware and I heard that it is cranky. Can I then upgrade to the former version?

Thanks a million for the info.

2>Sorry, but why u need that new crappy software which restrict zooming at 4X at 2 Megapix

3>Yes latest firmware is really crampy . that is y i have taken w800i firmware

i will post the link for firmware ASAP

no man just make sure u have inverter or UPS in u r home coz if the power is off during flashing . your phone might be at risk.
btw i also do not have UPS

Hey Max.. Back again.

I did the conversion. everything went well as u said above. but now, I got some issues to discuss.

> The 4x zoom in full res works fine. but when I take a picture zoomed, it just saves the picture with no zoom. why is it so? ? Now, I find no use for the zoom in full res.

> The media player is turned to walkman. but when I set equalizer to megabass, I feel that the sound is not clear. I mean, when I had the media player, I used to feel a bliss to hear in megabass setting. But now, for a couple of secs, the music goes fine. but when the sound goes complex(i.e., more no of beats and drums), the sound level falls off and I feel some kind of oscillations in sound level.

> when I turn the phone speaker on with walkman, I find it very low. I used to have it higher before. I used to increase all the levels of the equalizer earlier to get a higher level of sound from the speaker. Now too, I need to do that in order to get a higher level. surely the sound compared to earlier setting is high. but if I keep a preset or megabass, I feel the sound output is lowered.

> The main disappointment is that I feel I lost the megabass feature. everything else is ok for headphones.

> I am not satisfied with the output of the speaker.

> The joystick up is serving me as the utility key. But now, I lack the property of moving the shortcuts according to preferrence.

> Everything went as u said. I got the startup menu for music mode, walkman key etc..

> One more thing.. for how much time should I hold the 'c' key? should I have to hold it till the end of the process or could I release the key after the phone is recognized and the process is started?

I am not blaming u for anything of this. Just I am sure that u might show me a way out of this. sorry if I am bothering u so much. Thanks a lot..

1.)umm.. i think 4X zoom is really missing u can try this driver for help .

2.)megabass is different i think , u can try manual equilizer setting , make the 1st and 2nd equilizer setting full and rest in the middle.

3.)it is higher than my previous volume , is u r CDA was same as mine ? be4 conversion?

4.)output of the speaker is louder than previous.

5.)u can move the shortcut acc. to u r preferance , check settings.

anyone here knows how to use Gslide , PhoneXS and FAR software help me to put hybrid cam software

K

hi,.

I checked the CDA. It was the same.

> Is there any way that helps me with megabass? I really loved this feature.

> If possible, please post the link to the k750i firmware, just in case I change my mind to revert it back to k750i. Not the latest crampy one but the previous one. I believe it also needs the same proceedure.

> If I use SEUS, do I have a choice to select which firmware I want to install?

> My phone model still shows as k750i.. Is it ok??

> I too agree the output of the speaker is louder than before. but that only happens when I set all the equalizer levels to max. but in preset modes, they feel a bit low for me. Do you feel any change for the earphones' volume?

> I found a link from this thread referring to orkut. It flashes the phone totally. what do I get by following the proceedure? did u go through it? any feedback is helpful.

> Could u tell me what are the default games and softwares installed with the w800i phone..(if u know)

> I've checked settings> General > Shortcuts> Navigation Key Up.
All I found is edit and delete for soft keys. when I click edit, it takes me to select another shortcut to be replaced. no setting for moving the shortcut up/down. I used to have 'more' previously and had 'move','delete' in that.

If u have the option to move them, please be clear..

> The last message in phone XS was a 'failed to send data chunk' or something. what does that mean? I felt that the process was failed. Kindly explain..

Hi Max..

at last, I followed orkut and flashed the entire phone. Now, I have my w800i. Thanks a lot for all the info u gave. and thanks to romil who gave the info and files in orkut. Do U have the aero3d and super real tennis games of k750i? If u could extract them through far or xs, please upload them.

One more thing.. I have already posted in the forum. could u help me with upgrading the camera software and lcd driver?

Thanks in advance

Hi Max..

just follow the steps given by Mr Romil in orkut which is given in this thread. he gave a step by step and most informative approach and everything is explained in the process. he also packed all the necessary tools just like what u did before.

The process is for flashing the file system, customizing it for 800i(region and others) and then the main firmware. he's got all u need.

Mark my words.. I found a lottttt of difference in the quality of sound in what I did before and what I did now. the phone model shows up as w800i now. Megabass rocks in my phone now. Only thing was the camera software. I think there is always a way in and and a way out.

Just be careful while customising the file system. I got sweated while doing that. while doing that, dont keep the batt cover. 'cause, u would have to remove the batt a couple of times and u have got 30 secs for the process. the rest is the same..

the 4x zoom issue I told u before didnt solve in this either

best of luck..

Regarding Camera Driver Here are some driver

K

Thanks a lot max..

But could u tell me how to install any of these drivers? I have to use Phone XS. I cant use FAR. as mine is CID49. If I could use FAR, please tell me abt that. I also have XS++ with me if that could help

>Create a subdirectory in the "files_to_upload" directory named "ifs"

>inside "ifs" create "settings"

so can i proceed with the process kalyan applied to his phone ?

if yes then pls tell the whole process ..

hey guys .. i think i screwed up my phone .. due to electicity problem . the process hanged .. now the phone is not starting up

any way to resurrect it other than taking it to service centre ..

pls suggest a way ..

K

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

Best of luck

Y

actually it got recognized the second time .. and i flashed it to newer camera and sound drivers .. but its not starting up now

anyways i will take it to service station tommorrow and see .. obviously not going to tell them what i tried .

and i have n73me as backup so no worries ..

but k750i is very good too ..

K

OK.. post what happened in the service centre. gud luk

oh man , i'ts like Win XP installation . if u have completly lost u r system . try Reinstalling the whole FS using Romil's Guide .

happened to me 2 times , that the phone does not start at all . Replaced the battery and reinstalled the phone (
i was doing ascuotic upgrade , the files on the phone got corrupt ) then . u know

Kalyan said:

no need for service station .. i flashed it completely to w800i

this k750i is nice toy ..

now proceeding towards camera and sound drivers ..

A

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

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

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

Mine version is
R1CA021
prgCXC 125952_EU_1_CL

Camera 5.3

Y

ur firmware is very good ..

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

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

max_demon said:
yes, i have applied both the process for flashing w800i

after updating the driver u can do 16X zoom Yippie at 2 MP
and Sound drivers r louder than w810i(Quality is the same as normal mode)

and look what i have done to my phone

also do u have any other link for camera drivers .. and xs++ is the method to update ur drivers right ?

Hi Max..

Yesterday, I tried to upgrade my cam software to 8.53. but after the fsx thing was done, my cam didnt respond. When I open the shutter or when I open the camera option from menu, the screen blinked and went normal again. the camera just opened and closed. So, I loaded the 5.4 version now and it is working fine. Do I have to load the 8.53 along with the 5.4 version? how do I do that? your previous explaination was not that clear. I didnt get u. Could u please be more descriptive on loading the camera driver? I loaded the 8.53 camera driver (camdriver0.dat) into the folder u specified.

The acoustic driver went well. It increased the phone's sound dramatically. Does it ever damage my phone speaker?

I also found that other sounds(sms and camera) are also increased. Is there a way to reduce them? The camera sound is so high now.

When I go to silent mode, my camera sounds wont mute. Is there a way to shut the camera sounds off when I keep the mobile in silent mode? I have downloaded far manager before and I found what to do. but that needs retrieving the customize.xml from my phone.

My phone when it wasnt customized, showed this feature(mute camera in silent mode). what is the area code that supports this? can I change this when I flash the phone, in the customize file system section, when I got to choose the area of the phone?

I also upgraded the lcd driver but I felt no difference.

BTW the aero 3d mission is cool. It has a propeller plane now. The super real tennis didnt work though.. it installed well but when it is run, it gives application error. If u could, please upload some nice java games and applications.

Thanks for the great help......

Thanks max..

Any answers to the other queries for reducing camera sound etc. and muting camera sound in silent mode etc?? and please give a descriptive process on installing camera driver.. I couldnt use the 8.53 driver.

Coming for the games, How about Prince of persia series or tomb raider series? any pc game based java game. I like adventure games on mobile. If u have like any of the adventure games of ur choice, upload them. I dont know good games yet. but I prefer adventure or action games. (pc game based or movies based..

)

Could u upload the frames of k750i? (the jail bars, cowboy, ..etc.....) they were cool

My phone signal strength display sometimes just fills up the gap on the upper portion. actually, only the bars should show up. but also the remaining gap fills up. Why does this happen? how to rectify it? Ocassionally, the gap disappears and I see only tha bars

Thanks..

Hi Max..

Yesterday, I tried to upgrade my cam software to 8.53. but after the fsx thing was done, my cam didnt respond. When I open the shutter or when I open the camera option from menu, the screen blinked and went normal again. the camera just opened and closed. So, I loaded the 5.4 version now and it is working fine. Do I have to load the 8.53 along with the 5.4 version? how do I do that? your previous explaination was not that clear. I didnt get u. Could u please be more descriptive on loading the camera driver? I loaded the 8.53 camera driver (camdriver0.dat) into the folder u specified.

The acoustic driver went well. It increased the phone's sound dramatically. Does it ever damage my phone speaker?

I also found that other sounds(sms and camera) are also increased. Is there a way to reduce them? The camera sound is so high now.

When I go to silent mode, my camera sounds wont mute. Is there a way to shut the camera sounds off when I keep the mobile in silent mode? I have downloaded far manager before and I found what to do. but that needs retrieving the customize.xml from my phone.

My phone when it wasnt customized, showed this feature(mute camera in silent mode). what is the area code that supports this? can I change this when I flash the phone, in the customize file system section, when I got to choose the area of the phone?

I also upgraded the lcd driver but I felt no difference.

BTW the aero 3d mission is cool. It has a propeller plane now. The super real tennis didnt work though.. it installed well but when it is run, it gives application error. If u could, please upload some nice java games and applications.

Thanks for the great help......

will u pls share the link to ver 5.4 camera drivers? i have feeling the these 8.3 super cam drivers are not as good as the org ones ..

hmm .. in my case .. i screwed up my phone soft .. then using orkut method, i completely flashed my phone to w800i .. the firmware is now R1BC002

in my case all the super cam drivers upto 8.53 have worked .. atleast in normal mode if not in super cam mode .. haven't tried 8.54 version ..

also the drivers provided by max .. does all those work with this firmware ?

Here are some applications

i have quoted the name . look in that post again.

Kalyan said:
Thanks max..

Any answers to the other queries for reducing camera sound etc. and muting camera sound in silent mode etc?? and please give a descriptive process on installing camera driver.. I couldnt use the 8.53 driver.

Coming for the games, How about Prince of persia series or tomb raider series? any pc game based java game. I like adventure games on mobile. If u have like any of the adventure games of ur choice, upload them. I dont know good games yet. but I prefer adventure or action games. (pc game based or movies based.. )

Could u upload the frames of k750i? (the jail bars, cowboy, ..etc.....) they were cool

My phone signal strength display sometimes just fills up the gap on the upper portion. actually, only the bars should show up. but also the remaining gap fills up. Why does this happen? how to rectify it? Ocassionally, the gap disappears and I see only tha bars

Thanks..

there is only one way to kill the camera sound

Delete
FS/tpa/preset/system/sound/camerashutter.3gp
FS/tpa/preset/system/sound/camerafocus.3gp

u must be knowing how to do this , come on
i have the backup of camerashutter.3gp
but , no backup for camerafocus.3gp

i could not use the camera mode 8.54 , b.53 installs as it should be installed
try opening it in notepad and remove the credits and auther in //

the file size , if it is less than 30 kb u will be able to install successfully

tomb raider for k750 is not good it doesnt work in fullscreen

Here are some games packed by me . (including one very special game just for you

i dont know Signal strength problem

Just connect your phone to the system and search for the folder 'other' in the removable drive. it would be with images, sounds, etc.. It would be in MSSEMC folder I think. copy the jar files into the other folder. now, disconnect the phone and go to file manager>other. you will see all of them there.

just open each of the jar files(click them). it asks u in which folder (applications/games) do u want to install. select the proper folder and there u go.

thanks for the quick reply ..

actually i knew this . but somehow forgot ..

what happened to ur camera driver anyway ? is the supercam mode working ?

yes supermode is working , the image quality is awsome at night
now i hsve taken comparison pictures of normal mode , led on night on vs. super mode led on night on .i will upload tomorrow

I didnt try again. I am now running on camdriver 5.4. I shall try tonight. Is 8.54 working for u? and one more help.. if u have any friends with k750i and have not flashed yet, could u please look at the region of the phone.. I hope that region setting would solve the mute camera sound in silent mode..

Max...

I tried out all the games u uploaded. they are awsome. Especially the POP series, spiderman, and

....

Is there any setting to adjust the phone volume level? the sms and alert sounds are very loud. I lowered the volume in walkman but that didnt help. To make the sounds lower, should I reflash it with the older firmware? cant I use the acoustic driver for just the walkman??

may be.. but I heard that those ear-(bud) phones are too weak to produce megabass. and health-wise, the ear phones are better. and for 512Mb card, I think with k750, I have a concrete option to buy a 1GB or 2GB card.

Most people dont like the orange phone over the black sexy phone with a slider lens cover which looks cool

Max..

Back again.. I tried the super camera driver 8.53. the second time and it worked. but I am not able to zoom at all (even in low resolution modes) and the zoom level shows all up to 4x. and u said something abt going to super mode(>*<<*<*) in horizontal mode. what does that mean? I tried with the camera on and the camera light went on, off and on(for the *s), the brightness changed(for <,>) and the zoom wasnt working and it went till 4x only. how can I know that the camera is in super mode now? and what exactly do u mean by horizontal mode? do I have to do the >*.. thing keeping the phone in horizontal position(as if viewing the camera?) and where should I do this? when camera was opened? or when it is'nt. and how come the zoom problem is not there for you? did u edit the camdriver0.dat?

we can modify the cover

it is already in supermode , just follow this -

Linear zoom: Macro on,Night off, Press zoom key to change.
Normal Zoom: Macro on,night on,Press zoom key to change.
change Scences: Macro off,Press zoom key to change.
EnhanceNight Shot: Just only turn night on, this is automatic work.
Automatic Exposure lock: half press the shutter button for lock AE, move to subject,press shutter.
Manual Exposure Scence: turn night on,change EV for exposure time.

Re: Increase SE k750i sound?

harshana800 you can find the instructions and the files you'll be needing to flash your fone. By flashing, you'll be converting the software and firmware to w800i. Once successful you can proceed with upgrading the camera version and the sound driver. Dramatic increase in sound quality is assured. Check out maxx_demon's previous post. goodluck on flashing your phone.

hey maxx, any other sites where the camera driver version 8.53 or 8.54 is available? the uploaded files on quicksharing.com isn't available anymore. hope you could post new links. thanks

i dont have the drivers before that coz i had a hard disk crash , and they are not available in the source also , SO

guys, i got a real problem

. I crashed my phone myself :-?

. I download the new FAR MANAGER and phone xs software that suports CID49 K750I . And i followed some instructions that mentioned in other website regarding to increasing sound in k750i . so I opened phone xs and browse a file and clicked flash button . then i opend FAR MANAGER and load the SEFP Plugin and entered phone's FS folder and replaced memory with some .vkp files. And everything was fine and got no errors while I doing that . finaly I had have to turn on the phone . But my phone did not turned on . Still I have the problem

. I cannot turn on the phone . can anyone help me. And i saw above instructions that was given to me. But i was too late. when i see them all things have been happened.

Follow
*www.orkut.com/CommMsgs.aspx?cmm=3912886&tid=2511224677429075272
and use my method to upload music and camera driver , with XS++

H

Any way, I flashed my phone succesfully with w800i firmware using phone xs afterall. now I have w800i phone in k750i case. And after flashing I download the cam driver and sound driver then add those files using xs++ to the phone. Now sound level is very high . and camera has 2.5 zoom at Large (1632 X 1224 ) mode also. But it's useless because its not saving only zoomed part and unzoomed part is saving (whole picture without zoom) . Now i have 8.5 camera sw version and R1BC002 firmware.

BUT I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS TO ASK

1 . should i use the applications made for w800i or k750i applications will work?

2 . i have seen somewhere in this forum that after upgrading to new camera version will gain you 16X zoom . But there is no any 16x zoom in any mode . So how can i use the 16x zoom function . is there any code to activate the 16x mode?

3 . can I use w800i themes to my phone now?

4 . I have seen somewhere in this forum , that there is another method to flash the phone fully. I flashed the main firmware only . So , what is the difference between fully flashing and only flashing the firmware ?

5 . what are the advantages and disadvantages of fully flashing and only flashing the firmware ?

6 . Is there any updates we can do except camera drivers and sound drivers?

7 . Today I called sevice provider of my sim card of my phone . Because i wanted to go internet . when i ask them what are my internet settings , they asked me "what is your phone model" I stucked at that moment .
SO , can anyone tell me what should i say when they asking me about my phone model ? . Is it still my k750i or w800i ?

And special thanks to janalexine and max_demon

2.that's for CID 39 only , Sorry no doughnuts for you

3.Yes

5.By Flashing the firmware , you have all java games and files as it is on the phone memory where as in full flashing leads to complete format like thing

6.Display driver

7. oh cm'mon if you say either , the settings and functions remain same , even unflashed one they both are identical phone with cosmetic difference

Super Manual Focus:
Turn Macro ON.
When in range 1.1-4.0 (+/-) click half-shutter for preview with zoom
(you can ON/OFF zoom preview by clicking half-shutter),
now (when zoom is on) you can adjust focus very precisely (+/-),
when picture is most sharp you can:
- press shutter to take picture with SPOT (very useful with macro shooting)
or
- click half-shutter again (the zoom will go off and SPOT will be disabled)
and now press shutter to take picture. enjoy!

hey to know your phone CID
just connect your phone to XS++ !
then read the log !

that's all...
am not much into modding cid 49 cid 50 stuff

if its cid 51 and cid 52 u can contact me

hey thanks..

@a_k_s_h_a_y he must have CiD 36 . look at his old firmware

the best way to find the cid of ur phone is thru XS++. don't take any chances. be sure about it.

but whatever it is, it'll work for both cids (albeit the process will be slightly different)

WHAT IS THE CID ERROR AND IS THE ABOVE STEP WRONG ??????
I WANT TO CHANGE THE ACOUSTIC FILE ONLY
( C:\XS1_5\own_custpack\ifs\settings\acoustic\farfield_play.apf)

this is because the w700i is a cid49 phone and you are trying to use a cid36 breaker which obviously won't work.

follow this guide and post any queries related to w700i here. this is a k750i thread.

Hi,

First off hats off to the talent found in this forum. Has helped me a lot in understanding the ins and outs of my K750i.

I have been trying to upgrade my phone to the W800i firmware with Phone-XS V2.01 beta but in vain.

It is just not happening, I get the error failed open. after that OPEN FAILED all in caps.

My exisiting firmware info is
R1DB001 prgCXC12592_EU_1_CLR1DB001

Customization
CDA102337/103 R3Acxc125953 R1DB001 EMEA_6

I would like to know
1) If the W800i firmware can be flashed to this phone

2) If i can updated the camera and audio drivers on this phone.

Would love to here from anyone ASAP.

I think its caused because phone xs couldn't connect properly to the phone . Make sure you turned off the phone before you proceed. follow these steps .

1) turn off the phone

2)select your cable type ( USB or com1 )

3)click "start" button

4) connect usb cable within 30 secconds to computer by holding 'C' button on your phone.

5) don't release 'C' button untill it shows that it has connected to phone and it will show you some information about your phone ( cid xx , firmware version etc. )

if it works, you can proceed to next steps.

if it's not worked i think it's caused due to your USB drivers . so download latest usb drivers.

hi harshana800,

Thanks for the info. I did what you asked. Still no go.

error found is Cannot open Phone communicatin port.

I had PC suite installed on the comp. I removed it even.

Even though i hold down the "C" key and connect the cable the phone turns on.

Is this normal. upon that all the drivers of the phone such as Sony ericsson Modem, memory stick, etc are installed, i have rempved them but it still is being recognised.

Pls help me i need this badly!!!

Hi harshana800,

I was able to do it. Actually i installed Xp on a fresh drive and did not install the PC suite. It worked like a charm. Looks like the PC suite and sony drivers were causing the problem. Now the phone does not turn on when connected to the comp holding down the "C" key.

Found out later that

If the PC Suite is installed, follow these instructions:

Double-click on Phone Connection Link in the system tray.
Un-tick the USB port.

This might also help but I could not try it.

Once again thanks for you fast and timely response.

I found a "radio" patch and "no sim card" patch. But I don't know where to put those .vkp files. can anyone help me ?

Drag them to the the FLASH folder in FAR manager after connecting the phone.

I did it once . i entered the flash folder in the phone and i draged them. then I closed the far manager , but when i turn on the phone it didn't on ( i removed the battery and put it back too but it didn't work ). I get this error always after i enterd to phone by far . so i have to flash main firmware always after i changed phone's inside files. so, when i flash my phone draged files do not exist . is this caused by SE flash drivers ? but i have already installed them . and my phone is CID49 so Im using far which is suporting CID49 . I can't understand what's the problem is . Is there any way to do it with phone xs or XX++ ?

regards.

^^ after applying the patch dont flash the phone , restart FAR than drag your firmware file possibely (rest_W800_R1BC002.bin )this to FLASH again .

download from here (*rapidshare.com/files/62313416/REST.rar.html)

reinsert the battery than start the phone

Yes, you need to unload the breaker firmware for CID49 phones as mentioned by max.

Thanks , max_demon and infra_red_dude. it was very useful . i patched the phone successfully . i thought that we have to reflash that .BIN file using xx++ .
Thanks again . what else we can do with the phone. And , i want to know is there any way to increase SMS letter capacity . In my phone i can write 168 letters only in one SMS. But in NOKIA phones , can write 450 letters in one SMS. Is it depend on country we are in ? or is it a uniqe thing in SE ?.

harshana800 said:

You can install better drivers which will improve the camera quality and the audio quality. Enable various features by patching (like controlling radio/walkman from the answer button on the headset), change the menu icons etc. etc. etc..

Goto Menu>Messaging>Settings>Text Message>Max. msg length. Set it to Max. available. Your problem will be solved.

I patched the phone to increase the volume . it increaced the volume but reduced the quality of the speaker ( no bass ) . but head set is fine .

change the menu icons etc. etc. etc..

How to change the menu icons . is there any icons better than the icons exist in the phone ? How can i get those icons ?

Goto Menu>Messaging>Settings>Text Message>Max. msg length. Set it to Max. available. Your problem will be solved.

I already selected this option . but after i write over 168 letters , it gives the message " SMS 2 " and the operator getting paid for 2 SMS .

Don't patch the phone. Use acoustic drivers. The famous ones are by Toshara/Qwerty. They are available on SE-NSE.net. They increase the volume while maintaining other output paramaters.

Yes, thats how it is. Be it Nokia, SE, Moto or whichever phone. You are charged for 2 SMS when it exceeds 160 characters (or for 3 SMS if it crosses 320 characters).

hi guys, any tutorials about patching? I managed to find a repair center for my k750i and im back on flashing. how do i apply patches?

tutorials with pix would be a lot of help. (^^,)

Check the other threads on patching. Tho the models differ the procedure remains the same. But bear in mind that you'll need the correct patches which match the model and firmware of you phone. For procedure refer to this thread:

No change after i replaced my acoustics with toshara ( i think worst than i had before .)

infra_red_dude said:

No it's not . In Nokia I can write 400 + letters in one SMS .

********

and I cant apply patch which one is used to control radio channel changing by head set's button . Far gives me the message which tells "search data mismatch" what's that . i think its not suitable for my firmware version , isn't it ?.

Then try some other pack. There are so many of them. Something will surely satisfy you.

No sir. When it crosses 320 characters you are charged for 3 SMS'. Its the same with any cellphone or operator.

hi! i experience the problem: "configuration error. please contact your network operator or service centre" after flashing it from k750i to w800 and i now can't use my k750i. i tried to flash it back using SEUS but it's not working. i'm really desperate of using my phone again. can someone please help me with this matter? any help would be very much appreciated. thanks!

oh, and just to inform you, my phone's a cid49 and here's the process that i did:

Here are different methods to "flash" your Sony ericsson k750i mobile phone into a sony ericsson w800i one.

METHOD 1 :
ATTENTION:

W800 firmware is encrypted as CID36. K750 is available in 2 encryptions … CID36 and CID49. Older K750s (7-8 months old) came with CID36. If your phone is new, it has to be CID49. You will find out your CID number in the tutorial itself so don’t worry about that. Just follow the instructions…

CID36 K750s can be directly flashed to W800. For CID49 K750s, we need to first convert the W800 CID36 firmware to CID49 and then flash. Things will become clearer in the tutorial itself, so no need to panic at this point!

Before flashing, back up all your data, contacts etc. etc. because your phone will be completely wiped out in the process.

Remove SIM and memory card for the entire procedure.

During flashing process, avoid touching your PC or phone or USB cable. Do not take your eyes off the screen during the entire procedure.

Do not let your phone turn ON at any point of time. Flashing takes place only when phone is switched OFF!!!!

Flash your phone in the exact same order as I have given. i.e
1) Flash FS
2) Customize FS
3) Flash MAIN
Reason being XS++ has a bug and flashing works this way only.

The entire process may take between 15 minutes to half- hour.

Download the whole package from here:

*rapidshare.com/files/12706205...oW800.rar.html

Unpack the rar file using WinRAR.

The package includes:

XS++: This program is used to flash you phone’s firmware!!! This also lets you check your CID number!!!

Gslide: This program converts W800 CID36 firmware to CID49, to make the firmware compatible to K750 CID49 phones. CID36 users need not use this.

W800 Firmware: Your Main and File System files. Lets say these are your W800s operating system files!!!

USB Flash Driver: The driver you need to enable your phone for flashing through USB cable. Note that these drivers are NOT the same ones you get on K750 PC suite CD!

Now we are ready to flash!

If you have flashed before, or have used the Sony Ericsson Update Service sometime earlier, then your flash drivers may be installed so you can skip STEP1. For people who are new to flashing, this is a must!

STEP1: Installing USB Flash Driver.

Turn off your phone. Remove SIM and memory card, and re-insert battery. Do not turn ON.
Inside K750toW800 folder, goto XS++ folder and open the program. now 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 you downloaded and select the folder 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. But first let us check your CID number.

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.

If you have CID 36, then skip STEP2 and go directly to STEP3. Do not close XS++ or unplug your fone.

Now, you know you have a CID49. So our job is to convert the CID36 firmware to CID49.
Open Gslide. for flashfile, click ‘…’ and select the file named ‘W800_R1BC002_MAIN_EU_EMEA.bin’ inside the W800 Firmware folder.
Inside ‘output’ type in the path… C:\MAINFLASH.bin
Now click ‘Process’. After sliding process is completed, again click ‘…’ for flashfile and select file ‘W800_R1BC002_FS_EMEA6.bin’ inside the same folder. Under output type in C:\FSFLASH.bin and hit process. Close the whole program after sliding completes.

Now you have generated 2 files in C:\ drive using Gslide. MAINFLASH.bin and FSFLASH.bin

STEP3: Flashing FS.

For CID36: Your phone is already detected by XS++. Under Select Firmware, check Flash File System, and then click ’…’ , now select the file ‘W800_R1BC002_FS_EMEA6.bin’ inside W800 Firmware folder. Hit flash… the flashing process is now initiated. After completion of 291 blocks, it will say either ‘done flashing’ or hang at ‘finishing flash’. Don’t worry about it. Close the program and unplug phone. Again take-out and reinsert battery to refresh. Goto STEP4.

For CID49: Inside XS++, Under Select Firmware, check Flash File System, and then click ’…’ , now select the file ‘FSFLASH.bin’ in the C:\ drive which we generated from Gslide. Hit flash to start flashing process. After completion of 291 blocks, it will say either ‘done flashing’ or hang at ‘finishing flash’. Don’t worry about it. Close the program and unplug phone. Again take-out and reinsert battery to refresh.

STEP4: Customizing FS.

Common for CID36 and CID49: Again open XS++ and connect the phone same way as we did before. Now check Customize File System and then select phone model ‘W800’, select CDA and region ‘EMEA_6(CDA102430/6)’. Hit Flash. It will ask you whether you want to use ‘breakin’ or ‘brute-force’. Click ‘yes’ for breakin and strictly follow instructions on the left side of the screen. It will ask you to connect and re-connect phone 2-3 times by press and hold ‘c’ method. Do not panic at any point here, just follow the instructions carefully on the left. At the point when it says ‘FS activation’, wait for 3 minutes. After completion, close XS++ and unplug fone. Refresh by re-inserting battery.

STEP5: Flashing MAIN.

For CID36: Open XS++ and again connect your phone the same way. Under Select Firmware, check Flash Main, and then click ’…’ , now select the file ‘W800_R1BC002_MAIN_EU_EMEA.bin’ inside W800 Firmware folder. Hit flash… the flashing process is now initiated. After completion of 291 blocks, it will say either ‘done flashing’ or hang at ‘finishing flash’. Unplug your phone and close XS++.

For CID49: Open XS++ and again connect your phone the same way. Under Select Firmware, check Flash Main, and then click ’…’ , now select the file ‘MAINFLASH.bin’ in the C:\ drive which we generated from Gslide. Hit flash… the flashing process is now initiated. After completion of 291 blocks, it will say either ‘done flashing’ or hang at ‘finishing flash’. Unplug your phone and close XS++.

STEP6:

Now, insert your SIM and memory card and turn on the phone, wait for sometime as the phone takes time loading from a brand new firmware.
