    Yes,

    Main FsandCustom are specific.

    FS must match Main.

    Custom is region specific.

    Regards

    No they cannot. For example: you can NOT use CID49 firmware on a CID52 phone. And you can't downgrade CID either.

    you can in some circumstance flash different main and fs but this will lead to some corruption usually in the language sectors. Both have to be the same CID.

    If im wrong slap the chicken!

    Flashing with different CID firmware es called Cross-CID flashing

    This operation is only supported by setool2lite in:
    -DB2010 phones....Ej:Flash a K310 CID49 with W200 CID52 firmwares
    Not supported at the inverse...
    -DB2020 phones using quick acces patch (Only CID52)
    Using quick acces patch you can cross-cid flash your DB2020
    Ej:Flash with a CID53 FS your CID52 phone
