Do i need any firmware file with *.ssw and flash it with XS++ ?????
You need .mbn format for MAIN, .fbn format for FS and the custom file must be in .zip format.

And no, you can't use other GDFS except the one you backed up from your phone.
Fbn not Sbn
Thanks friends... i've flashed my phone except "W550_CDA102426_9_R2A_Generic_EUROPE_1" file. It's a zip... Do i use da zip??? or extract it? but after flash, my phone doesn't start. usb cable connected and phone is charging. When i start phone it says "Please wait" with a weird colour. Now what should i do? Forgive me if i screw up anywhere. :(
As I told you before, you must use the custom file in ".zip" format. Do this:

Looking to reflash, could you please tell me which files to use? Thanks!!!

Hi, guys,
So far I reflashed my w550 with R4CB020 (even thought that's what was already on it):
W550_R4CB020_MAIN_GENERIC_EL_RED49.bin
W550_R4CB020_FS_EUROPE_1_RED49.fbn
W550_CDA102426_9_R2A_Generic_EUROPE_1.zip
Same white screen.
Then I flashed it with the older R4AB048:
W550_R4AB048_ZONE1_STANDARD.mbn
W550_R4AB048_EU1.fbn
W550_CDA102426_9_R2A_Generic_EUROPE_1.zip (same cust pack from R4CB020, couldn't find one for R4AB048)
Same white screen.
Then reflashed back to R4CB020. No change, same white screen.
Anything else that I could try here? Thanks!!!
If you have GDFS backup (before when your phone work fine) now can make GDFS restore.Quote:

If you haven't GDFS backup -> go to a service centre.
No, I only have the GDFS backup made before trying to reflash. I suppose restoring to that is no use, eh...Quote:

Is there something I need to override to actually get it to flash?
after flashing complete, you need to turn on the phone to get updated
yes, i was doing it as hereQuote:

That's funny, I recharged it overnight, and now the firmware shows as being updated to the older R4AB048! Still white screen though :(
You need .mbn format for MAIN, .fbn format for FS and the custom file must be in .zip format.Quote:
