    Even if you convert your K750 to W800 it wont work.Here is one post from se-nse.com

    Ok...
    Here's the full story at my end:
    It's been 13 hours straight of flashes, mods, rewrites, editing and such. I wasn't able to use any menu files. Heck, I've even made a flash file for diags... Nothing. You can use them as wallpapers, but it ain't worth it. It's hard work and the number of bugs in the FW just makes it useless.
    So I began to wonder. Why oh why did SE put the flash files and the flash playing capabilities in that FW? As it turns out: I have a friend that works for SE. I phoned him (you guys owe me one, international phone call!!!) and asked a few nasty questions. Just about 10 mins later I got an email (I'll fully quote it, translated from romanian to english): "I've got info on your troublesome flash menus in W800. As it turns out, the firmware you mentioned was flash capable, but this was done only for testing purposes. Later on it turned out that the hardware in the W800 (and thus in K750) didn't have enough power to run flash menus. Also, due to bugs in the firmware, later versions excluded the flash playing capabilities to make room for software improvements. Take it this way: the W800 was a test platform and is the grand daddy of the W810 but you will never get flash menus on it unless you somehow manage to rewrite the firmware so that you optimize it to have enough power for the menu AND manage to overcome all the bugs. If you can do this, heck, give me a call and I'll get you a job in my office =) In a nutshell, that firmware was never intended to run flash menus, and the flash wallpapers is just a hack and not even a pretty one as you will find a lot of bugs." The rest is personal stuff.
    I hope this will get your minds of flash menus for W800. It's only a dream and the guys that faked it are probably kids playing pranks on people (though I don't understand why... Make us bang our heads against the wall for using a fw riddled with bugs? Make us beg them for the answer?). Anyway, I'm happy with my custom layout.xml file and I don't need smooth transitions for my menu. Anyway, for my closing, I'd like to thank to the idi*ts that started this thread as I will get a pretty neat phone bill for that international call, and to all you guys out there that want flash menus, GO BUY A W810!!!
    Cheers!
