Hi!

I've just gotten my hands on a Sony W960i...but the phone comes without Chinese language support. I'm thinking of flashing it to either HK/TW W960i firmware (found in the forum).

My concerns are:

a) Will this work? Is there any pre-empt actions/steps i should do before flashing it? I know it's a noob question. I've read some posts and here's what i *think* is the proper way:

i) Backup the GDFS of the mobile phone using XS++ (v3.1).
ii) Flash the W960i with XS++

b) Will the firmware i flash (HK/TW) in this instance renders my phone void of registering on my mobile operator's network? Coming from PPC background (WM2003-WM6), it can be easily updated via radio files. Has anyone tried it?

Thanks for reading.
