    Question need help with W800i firmware reinstall

    Hi, I gave my girlfriend an unlocked W800i and at some time had a problem with the camera flash light being on all the time. She took it to her wireless service provider's tech center and they fixed the problem by re-flashing the phone. Problem is, the flash they installed does not include her preferred language (spanish) and additionally she lost all perks (games, themes, etc). I would like to install a flash on this phone that pretty much has all the bells and whistles the phone came with originally, plus spanish language. I am pretty adept with computers and electronics, and so far I have backed up her GDFS (preemptively). Problem is... with all the the firmwares on this site, I have no freaking clue what to choose. So would really like if someone could point me in the right direction in terms of which flash to use, if I also need to load a FSX??? This is actually my first time flashing, so I am pretty much fish out of water here.

    P.S. The software info on the phone shows the following:

    R1BC002
    prgCXC 1250092_EU_1_C
    A R1BC002

    LCD SW versions
    Main display
    Current: 0

    Camera SW versions
    Camera
    Current: 4.5

    ITP SW version
    CXC 125 932 R1J

    Customization
    CDA102430/1 R6A
    cxc1250093 R1BC002
    1E0W
    EUROPE_1

    Content version
    PA11

    just flash the w800 language europe 1 language pack onto your phone. About the games part, you can manually install whatever game you want to. If you had lost contact etc, I am afraid its not possible to retrieve them unless you had copied the contacts to the sim card.

    That's mainly my issue... which? judging from the software info I retrieved from the phone I suppose I should be downloading from either R1BC002_RED36 or R1BC002_RED49... which is it?

    Maybe the easest would be use Sony Ericsson Update Service II.

    flash firmwares with XS++ and select a firmware which has spanish language pack compatible.. check for language compatibilities on Online de-branding and software upgrade service SonyEricsson (SE) mobile phones | WotanServer.com
