XS++, Stuck on Activating filesystem

Hi folks!

I updated the main firmware and the file system sucessfully with XS++ 2.20.
Without customize, i got the configuration error. My problem is customizing..
Get stuck on activating filesystem for hours.
I've a k608i, usb cable that came with phone.

Anyone with the same problem?

Code:

00:30:36| Sending db2000_cid49red_cs_p4k.bin... 00:30:39| Applet ID: 070418 1406 NPACXC1327363_SEMC_CS_LOADER_1_P4K 00:30:39| This is a CHIPSELECT loader 00:30:39| Activating loader... 00:30:39| Activating GDFS... 00:30:39| This loader is UNLOCKED 00:30:39| Sucess!

Ok. So i solved my problem (stuck on activating filesystem) downloading XS++ 2.1 instead of XS++ 2.2.

Now I have another problem..
XS++ detects that loader is locked and start bruteforcing. Yes, i've heard that can take hours (even heard an user said that took 15h), i can wait.
My problem is the battery. XS++ was bruteforcing for 10hours and my phone (battery full) went out of battery.
My question, is it possible bruteforcing and costumizing filesystem while phone charging battery?

I'm jumping around! xD

My problem was resolved. How?

Just tried the new XS++ v3.0 beta, and seems that the bug of stucking was resolved. Activated filesystem and all good!

thank you tanimr2002 for trying to help.

Try to upload the files manually (like trough SETool,or u can use an older version of XS++(but look that it isnt too old :-) )>the older versions sometimes work better than the newer one

Hey safd thanks... but no luck

I just tried to use XS++ 1.5 and 2.2 still no luck... Am I using the correct files?... Also, I have SETool 1.08 download but i have no idea how to use it.

drownage if you use america_1 file system you must customize it for america_1, not for emea_2, or you can use emea_2 file system and emea_2 customization.
Now I see in your xs log that you choosed america_1 customization, sorry. Anyway I had same problem with my w700, tried 4-5 xs++ versions and same problem everytime. Then I flashed my phone using SETool and it worked! There was no configuration error anymore
11-23-2007

Right, I tried it with America_1 from the Customization selection in XS 3.1, but I still am not ale to get it to work... Also, there are quite a few America_1 in customization... which one will work? Sorry... I am quite a noob to this stuff

Hey how do i use SETool then? Can u please provide some instructions?

Hey ok so how do i use this SETOOL becuase all i see in it is REST files...

It's best to choose generic non-branded custom pack (you know, without vodafone, o2 and other companies). Here is page where I wrote about my problem XS++ 2.x Guide - Page 10 - Top Sony Forums
I flashed my phone with xs and when it was stuck on file system activating i tried with setool. I was very confused, couldn't find any tutorial about setool so I clicked ... at the Firware upgrade pack: and browsed for main firmware, fs was also in that folder, then selected Flash and when it was successfull
I hope that will work for you same as for me

K i'll try that in a second and let u know how it worked thx

Ok Done no luck....

It said HDR block not accepted... i tried the file r7ca017_CXC1123106_NAM_1_EE

Any more ideas?

EDIT: I made sure I am using the right file... but wut is "HDR block not accepted"?

I used W700_R1CA021_MAIN_EU_1_CR_RED49.mbn and W700_R1CA021_FS_EMEA_2_RED49.fbn I think you should wait for help from somebody who is really experienced with flashing. Be patient, I wish you luck with repairing your phone

The reason you couldnt use XS++ is most probably because you dont have the correct loaders.

Extract the attachment at the bottom of this post to your XS++ directory (XS++\loaders) and XS++ should work fine ;)

Oh ok... u uploaded the wrong loaders for me anyways... I have CID49 db2010, but I got it to work with SETool, just adding the MAIN NAM and AMERICA 1 FS files and using a zip file with a tpa folder i mentioned in my previous post which i put in the misc option and i clicked flash and it worked :)

mine hangs..im using the proper America1 cda that goes according to my FS and MAIN (which are america1 as well)....i've tried using version 1, 1.2, 3, and 3.1...still no luck...it keeps hanging on 'activating file system' on my w600

did u flash using dcu-60 cable in se tool.

ejjeffay W600i will have problems with both XS++ and FAR..ulimited problems dude.. i got a W550i so i guess everything is the same(apart from the fact that you got EDGE)..

Use Setool2 Lite..not FAR or XS++.. neither works..
Anyway ,just in case , the whole thing being stuck at Activating File sytem migh mean the FS file you are using is corrupt. So id recommend getting a new FS and corresponding cust pack files and reflashing using ONLY Setool.
Infact there are video tuts of setool.net if you have problems!
Cheers dude!
12-01-2007
ejeffay

I guess XS++ just has incompatibility issues with W600i just as abmadman said. Because now that i used (and learned how to use) SETools2Lite, its been flashed, and everything is good now...thx for all the help guys. Now i just gotta put sum flash menu files on here and im good..thx so much again!!
12-02-2007
abmadman

do the flash menu part also with setools :).. i tried with FAR and re-screwed my phone..lol.. had to flash again. Flash with setool2 and pimp with it too..lol..
