XS++ 3.1 Is the best thing to debarnd your phone, i think...
i used XS++ 3.1 to debrand mine and it worked good, now i got flash themesss,,,
and it looks awesome the themes i got :)
Hi everybody!Quote:
Customization = Changing or replacing original content of the phone, like ringtones, wallpapers, icons, themes, that come with branded or unbranded phones. It's nothing more than first default configuring of the phone after flashing FS file. Usually the process is:
1. Writing customize.xml and server&java certificates in tpa/preset/custom in sonics folder to tpa/presest/custom folder in the phone's internal file system
2. When the phone starts after flashing, it parses that xml file, puts settings written in that xml into the phone's gdfs and works out certificates (some go to Trusted certificates, some got Java certificate etc)
If you open customize.xml you can change almost any initial settings like time zone, date, internet profiles etc.
Branded Phones = Some network providers place their own ringtones, themes, icons, links etc within phone's software. (eg. vodafone, orange, t-mobie, rogers, cingular etc.) Debranding means removing all this content and restoring phone to it's original factory SONYERICSSON condition. This will not damage phone in any way! You will loose Operator Icons, and links, WAP, and MMS settings however these you can get via Sony Ericsson - Sony Ericsson
select Region ---> Country ---> Support ---> PHONE SETUP
Finalization = Completing flashing operations and storing basic settings that phone needs to properly operate [i.e. security certificates, (and this is why phone displays "configuration error" if it is not properly done)].
Firmware has two parts:
1. FS: It contains languages, images, sounds, animations, settings, etc. Anything that isn't pure software.
2. Main: It contains the software.
Note: MAIN and FS HAVE to be the same software version
MAIN R1BC002
FS R1BC002
Customization has to be same region as FS, in this case
FS = EU5 (EUROPE_5)
Customization =CDA102338/50 ( EUROPE_5 Sunrise Switzerland)
I read all the 17 pages of this discussion, but I still have some confusion about version of MAIN, FS and Customization.
At the moment my K800i is:

The phone it's apparently unlocked (or not??). I would like to update it with the last firmware release that should be R8BF003, according with the above instructions i should flash with:
K800_R8BF003_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52
and FS EUROPE5 (to have english and italian) that unfortunately does not exist for this MAIN revision.
With no FS available the region of the Customization files does not matter but if I'm not wrong should be:
K800i_CDA102511_49_R10A_Generic_Trade_Italy
There are some alternative that I can use for FS, or I should wait until FS EUROPE5 for R8BF003 will be released (... if it will :confused: ), I read somewhere that flashing a K810i MAIN and FS could be an alternative but apparently it could create some issue, what is you opinion?
Thank you for any help!
P.S.: I know for the moment I can't download any file from the site, I will wait or I will donate a paypal contribute. :) Bye!
I Would Recommend Using K810 Firmware Since Doing So Will Provide You With PhotoFix, TrackID And Newer Version Of Java. You'll Need To Replace Light Effects With Original K800 One For Keyboard Light To Work Perfectly.
EUROPE5 Is Available In K810.:D
However If You Want To Stick To K800 Firmware, You May Select A Different FS Than EUROPE 5. See Top Sony - Languages Description To Find Another FS With Italian And English.
OK, you convinced me! :)
I will go for a K810i flash. Just some further info, after the flash the phone will be a K810i in everything, and the identification of the phone (like pushing up & down volume button from stand by) will be K810i right? The patch I could eventually apply have to be for K810i?
To have the K800i light effect I have to change some file during the general K800-->K810 flash or after when the phone is already a K810i (the software to use it's always XS++?).
Thank you!
Yes.:) It Will Be A K810i Everywhere.Quote:

Yes.:) Furthermore For Your Knowledge, Patch Changes Variable In MAIN So Whatever Models MAIN Is, Patch Has To Be Used For That Model.Quote:
The patch I could eventually apply have to be for K810i?
Flash It With The K810 Firmware Normally. Then Use "Uploading Files Via FSX" Section To Upload The Light Effects To /tpa/preset/system/lighteffect. I Have Attached The K800 Light Effects If You Want It.Quote:

Can you PLEASE tell me is there any chance to Backup the original files in the FSX before making any change????(like keeping the original menu.ml)
Also I would like to know why do J need to flash the firmware??? is it nessesery?
You Can Get Any Original File On The Internet. Like menu.ml, Original Acoustics etc. However, If You Want You May Use FAR To Grab Original Files From Phone Before Modifying. See Customizing Using FAR Manager With DB2020 Phones And With Backward Compatibility. - Top Sony Forums

Hi guys... just a quick question here...
My K850 (not supported by XS++, I knew... but plz... bear with me...) currently using CHINA_SO R1CA029.
Lets say I am to change the phone to GENERIC_S0 R1CA029, can XS++ do it? I noticed the option is there.
Do I need to download anything?
I'm not going to change/customize/edit anything to my current firmware, just to change it from CHINA_SO to GENERIC_SO.
(I'm asking this because apparently SEUS don't have the update for my version of K850, so I thought maybe by changing the above would make it do so)
Thanks in advance!
Sorry Dude You Cant.:o XS++ 3.1 Only Supports Detecting Of K850 But Cant Change It In Any Way.

i only backup gdfs for now, coz i'm still afraid flashing my phone.
i wanna make it clear..
so my phone: red52?
this phone is not a branded one, i can assure u that..
n what about main and fs?
so i have to use the generic?
i found this in another website:
K800_R8BF003_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn
K800_R8BF003_FS_C_ASIA_RED52.fbn
is it the correct main and fs?
and also, i'm confusing with the cda..
can someone here gimme a deeper explanation?
i can't find mine in K800 CDA List page in this website..
pls, sorry for my simple question (perhaps)..
i just want to flash it the right way..
thx..
p.s. i just bought this phone, debranded, and never been flashed since then..
You Should Use K800_R8BF003_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52 As MAIN. For FS You May Use Any FS Depending Upon Your Region Like If You Live In Russia, You Should Use C_ASIA(Central Asia) But Make Sure You Use R8BF003 Since Your MAIN Is R8BF003. Now Coming To Your Custpack, You May Match A Custpack With Your FS Here.:) If You Still Have Any Problem Matching Your CDA, Tell Me What FS Are You Using!
thanks mohdumer..
i will try it now..
i'll report here later..
btw, i live in indonesia..
so is it ok if i use K800_R8BF003_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn and
K800_R8BF003_FS_C_ASIA_RED52.fbn?
i'd downloaded it last night..
mohdumer...
i'm planning to use main and fs i just downloaded last night.. (K800_R8BF003_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn and
K800_R8BF003_FS_C_ASIA_RED52.fbn)
but i'm confusing again about cda's "thing".
u said: "Now Coming To Your Custpack, You May Match A Custpack With Your FS Here. If You Still Have Any Problem Matching Your CDA, Tell Me What FS Are You Using!"
so.., u mean.. the cda version arrive with what fs i'm using? am i correct?
and, do u know what's new with this firmware R8BF003 comparing to mine right now(R1KG001)?
i'd been goggling around, but can't find info about it..
and, i tried updating my firmware throught SEUS software. but the screen stuck on SE animated logo. can't go any further.. i tried reinstalled it. but still like that..
that's why i'm planning to updating it manually by myself.
and my region right now is APAC..
is it equal to K800_R8BF003_FS_C_ASIA_RED52.fbn?
it's c asia, not apac..
i'm really confuse w'this..:(
You MAIN + FS Combination Is Perfect.:) You Should Use HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_7_R8A_GENERIC_C_ASIA For Your FS.Quote:

I bought an Orange w910i unlocked. Currently using it in the Asia. It is still branded with Orange.
I Want to debrand the phone to the generic w910i formware. I've read a lot of posts and forums but all conversations seem to be between experienced users who know terminology. Is there's a beginner's guide to what the different terms mean?
I have no idea what is DB2000 or DB2020 of DB3150 is. Is this some operating system version?
What is w910i? DB3150 or DB2000? How do I check?
What's GID? Something to do with the firmware or platform? Why is it importnat?
How can I check what the latest firmware for my phone is? Where can I get the latest version of the firmware for my phone? Does SEUS provide? How do I get it?
There seems to be a paid website (DavinciTeam) that offers debranding. But it looks like it can be done for free with XS++ too. But again, the instructions are a little advanced so a little beginner's help would be really appreciated. Is XS++ the only way to do it? Does it work on all SE phones? How can one check what it supports?
Anything else I need to know?
Thanks

Your W910 Is DB3150 So Its IMPOSSIBLE To Flash It For Free.:confused: Davinci Can Flash A2 (Your W910) Phones But Its Too Expensive Like $50 etc. XS++ Currently Supports Up To DB2020 However XS++ Can Give Information For DB3150 Phones. You May Use SEUS To Upgrade Your Firmware But That Wont Debrand Your Phone. I Would Recommend To Wait Until A Newer XS++ Version Releases With Support For Your W910. However If You Dont Want To Wait, You May Pay.Quote:

After Debranding, You'll Need To Unlock It Again Which Is Again Not Avalaible For FREE.:DQuote:
Anything else I need to know?
Don't think it's correct: I had a w910i TIM ITALY BRANDED and, i UNBRANDED it with DaVinci with only 10 Euros of expence. AFTER unbranding it, making it general one, i updated it with SEUS. Clearly, you can't flash it for free...yet.
Total amount: 10 Euros. Not so much.
Look here:

You Have Downloaded The USB Flash Drivers But You Need To Install Them. See USB Flash Driver Installation - Guide - Top Sony Forums

Hi, when I connect my phone to the PC I don't have: “Found New Hardware Wizard” pop up, I have already installed Sony Ericsson PC Suite, so I think my PC recognize my phone.
Also I’ve downloaded and installed the USB flash driver in this folder: C:\USBFlashDriver, it includes: ‘ggsemc.inf’ ‘ggsemc.cat’ ‘x86’ folder and ‘amd64’ folder.
Finally, I’ve removed and reinserted the Battery after turning Phone Off with the same result: Error: Cannot open phone communication port
Thanks for your attention :)
Try Connecting It To SEUS First And When It Detects, Remove Your Phone. Then Try XS++.

Actually Your Firmware Is Quite Old. I Would Recommend Switching To Latest R1KG001. Furthermore I Would Recommend Using SEUS Rather Than XS++ In Your Case Since R1KG001 Is Avalaible On SEUS Too And SEUS Will Automatically Transform Your W850 From CID51 To CID52 Which Is Safer To Do Than XS++. And Last, You Wont Have To Backup Your Files When You Use SEUS.Quote:
