Can i flash my phone with this firmware?

[Indy]

Hi,
I just wanted to know if I can reflash my phone (Sony Ericsson W830i) to this firmware(these are the only firmware files I could find for my phone):

W830i_CXC1250705_Generic_R1KG001_Red52_sw_enc
W830_CXC1250714_S_ASIA_LEVAN_R1KG001_RED52_fs_enc

The current software specification on my phone( as seen from XS++) is as follows:
Profiling SEMC phone...
Platform: DB2020
OTP CID: 51
EROM CID: 52
EROM Color: Red
IMEI: 35457901xxxxxx
Phone ID: W830
Region: S_ASIA_LEVAN
CDA: CDA102568/110 R5A
Firmware Version: R1GB001
EROM: R3A016

One more thing. I downloaded these firmware files from a website shenliang or something, I found the link on another website. The exact link was ÉîÛÚÊ*ÉîÁÁͨѶÓ*ÏÞ¹«Ë¾.

When I try to upgrade the firmware through XS++3.1, it gives me an error message, saying that the file is Shenliang encrypted or some error message like that. I don't remember the exact message.

I read on the same website i found the link from that I will have to reflash the phone through the software SEKing 3.0.3.8. I downloaded this software, and I thinks it's developed by shenliang. I just wanted to know, will it be safe if I reflash these files from SEKings software?

I know I should not have opened a thread for this but, better safe than sorry! Thanks for your time though.

That should work, but I'd recomend the same firmwire version as your phone now which is R1GB001.

The Non Encrypted Files Are Avalaible In The Download Area. And They Can Be Used With XS++.

You use newste version XS++ (3)

I do not have access to the download section, and neither can i buy access as I am under 18 and don't have any credit cards or things from which I can pay.

If I do use the R1GB001 main file, then will it make any difference after reflashing? I mean will the bugs present in my current firmware be removed if I reflash to the main firmware as R1GB001 and the FS as R1KG0001. (R1KG001 is the latest firmware for my phone)

Also, after reflashing, will I need to customize my phone?

You can use SMS:
Top Sony - Payments SMS Premium2

And don't worry about customizing your phone. I didn't have to for mine, mine works fine.

I would aslo recomend to use the R1GB001... that could fix indeed... but you should look here at top sony if you got the download privileges... at least I've found about all I need here...

I tried that, but I live it's not available in my country. Can I send an international SMS like an SMS to the UK topsony number like this:

EN PREMIUM2 Indy
to
+4469911

and when you are saying the R1GB001 file, you mean the main R1GB001 and the R1KG001 flash system file right? And if R1GB001, should it be the R1GB001 CID 51 or CID 52 firmware file. (my phones OTA CID is 51 , and EROM CID is 52)

Ok I got access to the download area, now what main firmware file should I get:
1) R1GB001 CID 51
2) R1GB001 CID 52
3)R1KG001 CID 52
(my phones OTA is 51, whearas EROM CID is 52)
