    Re: Some Basic Questions (K800i)

    Thank you for some of your answers.

    I saw this video @ youtube: YouTube - modding the k800i

    So you say, the basic OS of the phone is untouched and so anything will work after a correct debranding?Good to know.

    What do I have to do, to make my phone look like this in the video? Are there performance or any other issues with debranded phones?

    An other questions about the phone: Is the joystick as bad as on the K750i? (Doesn't react/is defact)

    That is still the Sony Ericsson firmwire, debranding is simply removing your service providers logo of the phone and replacing it with Sony Ericsson original firmwire.

    What that person has done is created/downloaded a theme someone has made and flashed a new menu onto the phone.

    Re: Some Basic Questions (K800i)

    Ah, ok. I thought that it is possible to replace the whole firmware. But ok. If the changes to the phone are only theme based, this will lower my risk to brick my phone (i hope ;) ).

    Do themes slow down the phone, or can you replace the std. theme in a way that the new one works as fast as the original?

    And, does anyone know where to get that theme?
