New Firmware for W580, R8BE001

[totomvn]

when i upgrade the firmware, do i have to upgrade the FS and custpack as well? And does this mean i have to reapply the unlock patch for the phone? I'm currently using S500i with w580 firmware, R6BC002

Upgrading the firmware via sony ericsson update service does not delete anything. BUT if you reflash your phone with an upgraded firmware then it will delete everything on your phone.

Yes you have to reapply the unlock patch.

what software supports cid53?

Right now, there's no CID 53 firmware for download.

Try flashing it again with the R8BE001 firmware.

There is no light bug on my w580i. I have R8BE001. I wounder what the problem is that makes it work and not work for other people.

There is no light bug? Either the CID 53 version fixes things or you are using a flash theme. There is a light bug

Could someone confirm whether or not light bug exists on CID 53 version?

Why do you want CID53? There aren't many programs out that support CID53, with the exception of JD Flasher I think.

Hey Geo, long time no see. I dont really want to go CID53. I was just wondering if for some crazy reason there was no light bug on the CID53 version. I guess I'll just have to give up and use flash themes, everyone thinks they're great anyways.

Have you had any luck getting around the bug? BTW, what firmware are you running on ur w580 these days?
