ive read it, now the main problem is the language files.
the firmware version is
R1KG001prgCXC1250210_GENERIC_WI R1KG001
iam assuming i file i need something to match it.
i looked on the downloads on the language files it doesnt have k800.
ive googled for over 1hr, to search and got to places where i have to pay.
anyone can help get the language files for the k800 ?
specifically looking for chinese so the media player reads chinese

Simply use XS++ and flash the phone with CHINA's MAIN and FS and the custom pack.
Or use HONG KONG if you want traditional chinese.

Remember to Back up GDFS before flashing.

would it have to be the same firmware type like mine is r1kg001_red52. on the download page theres only the CHINA's MAIN no FS or could i use any firmware type. Where would i find the custom pack (what is it?). Finally, would it also keep the english language since i only want to chinese language for the media files.
need more help thnx...

oh i found the custom pack now, but which one? and i still couldnt find the china's FS :(
anyone know if this method will erase the english language?

In download section you have MAIN,FS for K800 - R8BA024(it's newest firmware)

[swindlerz]

would it erase the english language because i want to keep it too :) ?
any ideas which custom files i need to install for it to work or is the custom files optional?
apparently it has to be the same version but i dont know what version it has to be.

English is present in every language version.

Chinese can be found in APAC FS file (Chinese display only).

If you want Chinese input, you'll need to flash both MAIN and FS, and a custpack.

So the easiest thing for you is to flash the FS for APAC onto your phone, followed by a GENERIC_APAC custpack.

[swindlerz]

So if i use XS++ 3.1 and Flash it where
Main: K800_R8BA024_MAIN_HONG_KONG_WI_RED52
FS: K800_R8BA024_FS_HONG_KONG_RED52
Custpack: HB1-06_Generic_CDA102568_101_R4A_GENERIC_APAC
and hopefully the k800i will have chinese and english language.
Would it work?

anyone can confirm if the method is correct? (hmm couldnt download the files atm im such a noobie :( )

kk ivv took the risk and flashed it.. AND IT WORKED!!! but now all icons look dull and files are in chinese simplified not traditional LOL, oh well...
