    Question How to flash GDFS using phone xs ?

    Hello,I have recently flashed my w810i using phone XS.The problem is when I insert a SIM that connects to GSM 800,it works fine.But operators that are running GSM 1800 mhz,arent working any more.Unfortunately only 1 operator in our country uses GSM 800 and its undoubtedly the worst one .I have confirmed that i have to flash the GDFS to resolve the issue.Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to do this using phone xs.inclduing which format of GSFS I need to use .HElp....:(

    Can't be done with any XS software version and a service cable is needed; be careful with the GDFS area, you could trash the phone by overwriting the calibration data

    GDFS can be flashed with FAR and using DCU-60 but, as luzer said, you may brick your phone.
    I'll try to post the GDFS address soon.

    Found GDFS addresses only for k750/w800/k700/z800. Sorry, but no luck for w810:(. You can find more info abou GDFS writing right here on http://www.topsony.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26

    Try reFLASHING with "Generic Main" and "Generic FS".

    U can also try this link

    However i recomment flashingur phone with XS++ and use "generic" FS and MAIN.

    There is no phrase "reset GDFS". What do you mean?
