Hi!
I have a w550i with "white screen of death" and if i use xs++ to flash the firmware , would the phone work then?
sry for my bad english
first try an update with SEUS, if it says you have the latest do it anyway
ive already tryed that but its stuck at 94%
then try to flash the MAIN with XS++, I'm not sure that w550 works with XS++, if not then try Phone xs, I'm not much of an expert with w550, hope it works
I thought about that too but i dont have the firmware files:( could somebody upload it:o cuz i cant wait a month
HERE is the link, inthe archive you have the MAIN and the brake in loaders, you only need the MAIN, connect the phone holding C, when recognized load the MAIN, when finished, remove battery for a few seconds, replace SIM and battery and start phone, hope it starts and works..
thank you so much:D i will try to flash it now
DOH! didn't work,still only show a white display. When it starts it blink and then vibrate one time. when i press a button the screen lights up. Could the the FilesSystem files help? could somebody upload the FilesSystem files to w550?
ok, i'll try to help tomorow, i'm to wasted today, sorry i guess you need a reflash.i'll get back to you. don't worry, your phone can be saved.
where do you live? I need to know that to send you the correct FS and custom files.
i live in sweden.
phone XS 2 shows:
operator:EUROPE_4
CDA:CDA102426/12 R1A
Firmware:R4AB048
so, this is the first time i try to flash a w550i, hope everything will be ok. i guess your w550 is CID 49 then it should work similar to the w810 flashing. HERE is the FS and Custom files. you also need FAR Manager, download it from HERE
First unrar everything and read THIStutorial
Ill' try to guide you too.
Remove SIM.
Run Phone XS, press START and and connect W550i to your pc using included cable DCU-60. Phone must be closed and "C" button pressed untill the software detects the phone and shows on screen informations about it.. (If phone not detected, instal SEUS the official updater and things shoud go fine)
Go to flash, check MAIN and select file: w550_r2e_dcu.49r.ssw and press flash
When writing procedure ends, close the software aplication, disconect the phone from computer and remove battery for ~5 seconds.
Open again Phone XS, go to flash, check FS and select your FS (W550_R4CB020_FS_EU4.bin) then press "Flash"
Again, when writing procedure ends, close the software aplication, disconect the phone from computer and remove battery for ~5 seconds.
Run FAR Manager and press Alt+F1 and select SEFP
Conection type select: DCU-60 (USB), Speed 921600, At script chose: w550_w600_cid49 and press "enter the matrix".
You now have 60 seconds (with your phone closed to hold "C" key pressed and conect the phone to pc (same procedure as for PhoneXS)
After it passed loaders (~10 seconds), select FS (do not select flash or it will stop) and WAIT for sub-folder to appear on screen. When this happens, proced to customization:
in the custom files folder (tpa/preset/custom) are those files. go to the same folder in the phone (when connected with FAR, tpa.preset/custom) on the left
side of FAR and copy the files
Go to "..." to come back to main folders untill a window shows and ask you if you want to close the loaders. Select YES (selecting NO will result in no savings and work shoud be repeated from the begining).
Close Far Manager, disconect the phone from computer and remove batery for ~5 seconds.
Start Phone XS again, go to flash, check MAIN and select file W550_R4CB020_MAIN_EU_EMEA.bin and press "Flash".
After the procedure finish close the aplication, disconnect phone from cable, remove batery for about 5 seconds.
Insert SIM in phone, start the phone and wait for about 2-3 minutes for the phone to auto configure (it should write please wait on screen)
I really hope it will work, please reply when finished. if you don't succeed, hopefully you will, go to a service center. DON'T experiment other things (with GDFS, EROM ...) cuz you could kill the phone.
does the above procedure work with a w550i cid49 brown
first you need to convert the phone from BROWN to RED, red firmware don't work on brown phones. search in tutorials cuz there is a descrition on how to convert.
DOH the first MAIN firmware update didn't work(tryed with both xs++ and phoneXS 2.10 alpha 6), it stuck at 3/5 flashblocks. I guess there is nothing more i could do?
i read now on another topic that XS++ and Phone XS 2.10 don't work with W550i and that Phone XS 2.01 does, i don't know if thats correct, but you could try it, HEREis the link to it. I really hope it will work, don't use the computer for anything else and close the progs that might use the computer resources, charge the battery and give it another go. if it doesn't work, than go to service, the phone is not dead, it needs just a reflash, they will do it with a service cable.
It's the same it's stuck at 3/5. Is the SE service free?
if your phone is under waranty it must be free, if not than it's not free, but a reflashing is not expensive. could you describe what did you do? did the phone get recognized by phone xs? what did it say? can you make some print screens about that? it's odd that it got stuck, maybe the brake in loader is corupt.
SEUS, at about 94%, how you say, - is starting to configure your phone - how much did you wait? some 10minutes should be good. ;)
In all ver of XS it starts and goes to 3/5 and then its stuck.

I think I found something but I want to look into it before we try again (if you want of course) this might work with Davinci client, i'll look after it and get back. i'm also interested cuz i have a w550i and got a white screen but it was under waranty and they do it.
i have no idea, but i think so(i've charged it for 5 hours). And it's always stuck at the same 3/5:(
i was looking on Se-NSE forums and i found these topics:

it seems like you'll have to bruteforce the phone, it is a long proces and the battery must be charged, (remove it from the phone replace it and charge it, even if apparently nothing happens the battery is charging). try those posibilities, i'll look after that DaVinci thing tomorow.
You should reflash MAIN and FS files using Phone XS_2.10_Alpha6 to solve the problem
With XS 2.10 ALPHA 6 it's stuck at 114/273

yeah! It worked but now it's stuck at FS activation:(
what worked? i talked to a guy that reflashed his w550i, he used this tutorial:
http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=6118
it brute firces the phone, so it has to be charged cuz it takes a lot of time
the FS and MAIN flash worked with phoneXS 2.01.
finally we have some results :D. did you customize it as well?
I have the same problem, block is always 113/114. I haven't try older firmware, with cruiser it flashed well.
i have the same probem with my w600... i can flash the firmware with no problems... but the white screen still there... so when i tried to flash the FS file... it stuck at block 114... i tried with many versions of XS beta 2.01, XS++... i tried with FAR manager.. putting manually the FS files, but says a problem too...
flash your main then run seus. when its stuck on 94% reflash your main and fs then run seus again. it should go to a 100% (it went when i had a white screen of death) then go to far and your cust pack. then reflash your real main.and its gonna work
I want help too!
