firmware?

[pySHtr]

Hey. I have a SE w380a locked to fido:mad: I've been reading the tutorials on flashing my phone. I'm confused on which firmware to get from the download section. I just want to get rid of Fido's crap and their gay name and boutik button on the main screen. I'm also not understanding what the custom packs are.:p

use these files :
W380_R9BB001_MAIN_GENERIC_LE_RED53
W380_R9BB001_FS_EUROPE_2_RED53
HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_11_R11A_GENERIC_EUROPE_2
you need to flash with far+jdflasher and select pnx5230 for the script. you'll find all the above in the download section

kewl, thanks. one ?, why europe? I live in canada:confused:

[riders4sia]

it doesn't matter where you live, it is only a language package, but if you want specific language read here : Top Sony - Languages Description and tell us what package you want

If I chose AMERICA_1 US English - Canadian French - Latin American Spanish, do I get a choice for only american english? Or am I gonna have french too:eek: (ha) And the firmwarez will have to different also right? I'm following you but want to make sure I have the right ones. Thanx.

Does anyone know if these are the right files for my phone? I know "riders4sia" said the same as these but i don't live in Europe and the english is diff. there. Thanx:)

W380_R9BB001_MAIN_GENERIC_LE_RED53
W380_R9BB001_FS_AMERICA_2_RED53
HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_107_R11A_GENERIC_AMERICA_2
