Unbranding my W850i

[2145]

If you are using XS++ DO NOT FLASH FILESYSTEM (FS) FILE!!! If you do that, you will need to finalize and so far, no tool (including XS++) can't access the FS for free. If you don't finalize, you will end up with the famous "Configuration error...".
@barry7000. The menu layout (button positions) are affected by the menu.ml in the filesystem. If you have CID 51, you can only flash MAIN which will change the icons, but not the layout.
I'm getting a W850 Vodafone this week too ;)
Gonna report how flashing went.

Thanks 2145, but when you say:

that is only for CID52?
CID49 and CID51 are ok to flash with XS++?

I'm eagerly waiting for your W850 flashing report ;)

Soooooo have you done it yet? ;)
I'd really like to know...

[damien]

Ok thanks for the tip, I'll stick with R1GB001 (CID49) then.
I hope I won't have problems with this update (finalize, etc.)... I really don't want to screw up my phone :s
Anyway I'll wait for your report ;)

W810 is CID49. You can use any firmware, but you'll need to bruteforce to insert the flash themes or to do any other customization.
