thanks for this tutorial....does anyone know when the new XS++ is going to be released? or have any updated info on it? I really want to flash my W580i but I need a way to back up GDFS just in case I need to get it serviced by AT&T.

It also might be worth noting that i used Gordons Gate USB Flash Driver.
should I use setool or JDflash instead of XS++?
the status on the bottom for almost 50 min now has been:
Sending flashblock 1/460. Address=44140000 Size=00010000
EDIT: I stopped the flashing, the phone works fine, but with Cingular firmware, it turns out that this method does not work for CID53, which i have, i'll look into JDFlasher
Your phone is CID52 and you need thisQuote:

yeah, in SE2ToolLite it told me that the files i were trying to use were CID53, idk how I got it mixed up with my phone's CID number. Thanks for the links, problem is I can't download from topsony yet (my old account got pruned so im a new user again :( ). I'll look for the files elsewhere, but can you post the file hashes if that's not against the rules? thanks for your help.
EDIT: I got the files and flashed my phone (Hashes would be nice just to double check i got the same files). now im onto step 4, customize file system, my phone (W580i) is not listed in the drop down box, I also wouldnt know what region or CDA to use. What do I do with the HB1_06_Gen_CDA102568_106_R8A_GENERIC_AMERICA_1.zip that I downloaded?
Unpack .rar archive in XS++ folder /own custpack/ and in XS++ in section customization select own custpackQuote:

For now only way for flashing CID53 is with Jdflasher CID53 update - Top Sony Forums and for doing this use this tutorial Flash K800 CID53 with K810 software CID53 (for begginers) - Top Sony ForumsQuote:

Use small program "babeck" and check your MAIN and if is everything OK try with Setool2lite
(and I hope you do backup GDFS of your phone )
Hey guys i use sony ericsson w660i phone, what is abt all this XSS+ and flash thing?I thought w660i doesn't have flash.plz help me i want to have a flash too :(
I'm new on SE flash, as far as I investigate, "babeck" checks the MAIN flash file to ensure no errors.Quote:

Do you recommend Setool2lite over XS++ :confused:
Thanks!

Just realized... Was using red53 instead of red52. Using the correct file fixed the patching problem.
It might help future users if we added one additional point on how to identify the correct file in the tutorial
umm... does this work on phones that have not been debranded? like rogers (if any of you know)... in canada?
cause i tried like 3 or 4 times and it didn't work...
