It doesn't matter if the flash files are called .bin or .mbn as long as they are BABE files in the end.

And there are the MAIN and FS in the download section of this website:
Downloads - R1JC002_RED52 - Top Sony Forums
There are 3 MAIN File at the bottom:
W850_R1JC002_MAIN_GENERIC_CY_RED52
W850_R1JC002_MAIN_ORANGE_CY_RED52
W850_R1JC002_MAIN_VODAFONE_CY_RED52
To download from the download area you'll need to read the stickys:

Look here:
Flash your phone and How to apply or remove patch using SETool 2 Lite
or
XS++ 3.1 Guide-Flashing,Customizing,Recovering
If you made a backup of your GDFS , then it should be no problem to fix your phone, otherwise it`s bricked.
Nice day

You get this : configuration error , please contact your service provider ?
If yes , then should you finalize your phone
Nice dayFinalization = Completing flashing operations and storing basic settings that phone needs to properly operate [i.e. security certificates, (and this is why phone displays "configuration error" if it is not properly done)].
Firmware has two parts:
1. FS: It contains languages, images, sounds, animations, settings, etc. Anything that isn't pure software.
2. Main: It contains the software.
Note: MAIN and FS HAVE to be the same software version
MAIN R1BC002
FS R1BC002
Customization has to be same region as FS, in this case
FS = EU5 (EUROPE_5)
Customization =CDA102338/50 ( EUROPE_5 Sunrise Switzerland)
