I think I just bit myself in the... W580i

[Rogue7]

I tried to flash my w580i with the following in Setool2lite...

Files> W580_R6BC002_FS_AMERICA_2_RED52.fbn
Files> W580_R6BC002_MAIN_GENERIC_LA_RED52.mbn
MISC files> HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_107_R8A_GENERIC_AMERICA_2

however, when I turn on my phone the screen is reeeeeally distorted. On power on, the sony ericsson logo (green ball) is cut in half. Bottom half is lined up to the top and the top half is lined up to the bottom line. "Sony Ericsson" is in the middle, and all of this is elongated vertically.

When it loads to the menu I can barely see what's going on. Everything is transparent, elongated vertically, and overlapping making it impossible to read/do anything. By searching around I assume I messed up the EROM. How do I know if this is the case?

If I did indeed do that, which CID did I have originally?

Oy vay...:(

Try to reflash just main again , maybe help

[skybear]

Where can I download the MISC files?

[hyperion17]

In Setool 2Lite, you must put MAIN first and FS second !

[SaNdSuKkA]

And if that doesn't work, use XS++

tried, no luck

In Setool 2Lite, you must put MAIN first and FS second !

I tried that, still no good.

And if that doesn't work, use XS++

What's the difference??





Am I using the wrong CID or something?

[SaNdSuKkA]

What's the difference??

XS++ has been updated more recently I believe. Also, I get the impression it is much more widely used for flashing firmware. I think you will be able to get more help if you still have problems after using it. Try it out and post log SeaMonkey said

[Rogue7]

I'm in the process of doing this in xs++, however I noticed in the log that my OTP CID is 51, but my EROM CID is 52. Could this be causing the problem?

[Rogue7]

I was following the steps in the tutorial but noticed that the custom pack is quoted as being a k700. How did that happen? I didn't go any further than step IV. 2. at this tutorial XS++ 2.x Guide - Top Sony Forums because I'm afraid of what the log entails about the wrong recognition of my model nuumber.
And I definitely used the w580 files from this site.

I also didn't back up the GDFS. Could that be the problem?
What does GDFS stand for?
