Need help rebranding my w760i

[aznjackrab]

I debranded it so I could have the benefits of the mp3 ring tone but I want the w760a back so I can use all the online applications. Is there a way to have both if not anyone know the cda for at&t w760a? Thanks

No. AT&T is just like ROGERS , as long as its branded, you can never use ringones that is more than a certain amount of KB BUT. You can convert the ringtones MP3 / WMA to a certain AT&T type ringtone, google it. As i tried to find for ringtones, rogers branded cellphones accept a type of ringtone. The point of locking your ringtone as a service provider is to force you to buy ringtones from them. Hope this helps.

Oh ok, thanks. If anyone has a branded at&t w760a and know the cda or have the firmware I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi, what CDA did you use to unbrand w760a (custom pack)?

I'm using

W760_R3CA038_MAIN_GENERIC_VT_DE_RED52
W760_R3CA038_FS_AMERICA_RED52

Thanks a lot.

If you have the above firmware in your phone, it means you don't have to debrand.

I'm still very much a noob and trying my best to understand the ins and out of debranding.

However, I did find a way around the restrictions to use ring tones that doesn't involve debranding. The problem isn't a KB restriction (at least in my case, I have a W760a from ROGERS). All you have to do is to DRM the MP3 tunes and your phone will happily accept them .

You can download the program here

PS here is my noob question. If you debrand a phone, can you restore the original branded firmware?

[SeaMonkey]

Yes you can - when you need branded phone again you just need to flash phone with branded firmware

jackrab You don't need to debrand to unlock mp3 ringtones on the w760....you need A2 Uploader and the flash drivers and a program called XML Notepad......what you do is use uploader to copy your customize.xml file to your computer so you can modify it....go into tpa/preset/custom then highlight the customize.xml file and right click....now hit "read"
this will copy it into the A2 uploader "phone out " folder....shutdown A2 for now

Next open that file with Xml notepad and use "tree view" scroll down and open the DRM folder and then the Settings folder (within the drm folder) You wiil now see stuff like "enable ringtoneplayer-mp3 " and in the right pane it should say "false" .......change that value to "True" keep going down the list changing those "false" values to "true"
*make sure to leave "enable ismi lock" value as "false" *

-after that save the file as Customize_upgrade.xml
-now fire up A2 uploader and drag and drop it back to the Tpa/preset/custom folder
-shutdown uploader and remove/reinsert the battery of your phone and start it up

There you go now you can play Full mp3 songs as ringtones....


angelyne I too have a Rogers phone and they lock the ringtones in the programming.....you can rebrand if you must but remember the Rogers CDA # so you can later.......for debranding instructions check out the Sony Ericsson Modding section of Howard Forums....alot of helpful info there........oh and write down all of your Rogers internet/sms/mms settings BEFORE you debrand because you'll have to input them manually AFTER you debrand Rogers CDA for W760A 1214-8074 R7A

IMO the debranded version is way better........Rogers locks up too much of the features (and Games) that came with the phone.........
