Themes are also included with some of the above flash menus. The preview of the menus is also included in the above, so that you dont have to copy and check. You can check the preview and then decide your favourites. The .swf files are to be uploaded with FAR and then later .thm files should be uploaded to cell in phone memory/themes only! If you upload in memory stick they wont work.
How to flash:-
Make sure that you every required file, then start with the following steps:-
A] Install USB Flash drivers from here
B]Install FAR-manager 1.70 which can be downloaded from here
C] Extract SEFP plugins, first you should extract SEFP v010044 and then SEFP v010051 over it to the following directory C:\Program Files\Far\Plugins
D]Extract db2010cid49_4_alpha.rar.zip (den_po’s CID49 pack) to FAR\plugins
E]Install XS++ and a get a proper MAIN firmware which is suited by your phone model

F]Now you need to remove your SIM-card and memory stick, now start XS++, connect your phone by holding C, then just flash your MAIN with w810_p3k_dcu.49R.ssw(for W810i only!!). It’s just a break in loader which enables you to enter the phone without brute forcing. It’s only 5 flash blocks, should not take more than 20secs, so if it hangs more than 30 seconds then simply stop the process and disconnect your cell. NOTE:- Your cell won’t start after flashing this file!
It should look something like this…

G]Now start FARmanager, and press F11
Choose SEFP plugin,
If you get the error: “Unknown exception”, Exception address: 0×7C812A5B…… The plugin will be Unloaded!
1) This is a bug. It’s because you don’t have any COM-ports, so create a fake COM-port connection. I did it with my BT Dongle.
2) If you get the error: “
3) If you still get any errors, and just want a working phone back, skip this part and just disconnect the phone and then flash your main firmware. You’ll have a working phone back.
H] Now all you need to do is choose Bootscript: w300_w810_z550_cid49 and press Enter The Matrix.

I] After some time you should be in the file system of the phone, if not, try again, check settings above (1, 2, and 3) and make sure you have chosen the right settings.
J] Now choose FS (this is the place where you customize all the stuff like icons, menus, sound, cam driver, etc).
For custom menus go here: /tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash
For audio drivers: ifs/settings/acoustic/
For replacing camdriver: /ifs/settings/camera/camdriver0.dat
For adding new photo frames: tpa/preset/system/multimedia/pe/
NOTE: Remember the file name of the flash menus that you have uploaded, because later you need to make themes based on them!(you can just take a screenshot of the FAR manager like i have taken below, just in case its difficult to remember)

K] When you finish with this, Just go back to root (press ‘..’ all the time) until FAR asks to “EXIT CSFS loaderâ€, choose “YESâ€.
L] Then just exit FAR-manager. Disconnect cable and remove your battery for 5secs.
Now for getting your phone working again….
M] Start XS++ and connect your cell. Now only flash your real MAIN file (i.e. W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49.mbn, you can find it in here, 344 flash blocks).
[{Don't check Customize File System!}] This will only take about 2 minutes!
That’s it you are now done with flashing, now you can simply start the phone by just adding back the SIM, mem card and then battery.
Now adding themes into your cell….
So far you have entered the phone memory and added just swf files (menus) but you dint add theme files. For adding theme files and making theme files with the custom menus downlaod the following notepad tutorial HERE.
That’s it for now… For any doubts or clarifications post them in comments.
DISCLAIMER:-
Use this tutorial on your own risk as it may damage your phone if done wrongly. Im in no way responsible for your actions with the phone.

June 9th, 2007 at 6:48 pm
Oh.. that means your phone is Brown.
Currently only Red phones are supported…
But theres a work around…

June 9th, 2007 at 11:23 pm
hey…ive done it..i just use the sfx in the xs++ to upload the .swf files to the appropriate directory.. and i gt it..its beautiful..thanks a lot.by the way, developer should put more effort in inventing new flash menu like walkman dance and active black..walk woman and desktopgroup were also great. but they were slow..
June 9th, 2007 at 11:51 pm
Ill be uploadin many more flash menus here….
so keep watchin…
BTW how long did it take with Sfx…?
Have a nice time…
June 10th, 2007 at 3:44 pm
7 to 10 seconds only..its real fast… in a minute i can get 12 new flash themes.. BTW.. i found many .swf files but there were no .thm files for it… what should i do to get it? anyway, i hope you can upload the BASTI theme.
June 10th, 2007 at 10:00 pm
JOEL, u seem to know about flashing, is there another way to find varied firmwares, the website you posted id limited and does not have many european variations of the w810i.
June 10th, 2007 at 11:13 pm
NOTE: Added 3 more new menus in the tutorial
Active_desktop(white), Disco and Basti
Will upload more shortly ….so keep lookin…..
For making themes compatible to use these menus please download the following guide from HERE
And sandmanbeta…
regardin the firmware files.. you can find them on topsony.com. But the problem is they have some crap restrictions on download…
If you have any requests of particular files so that i may help u plz let me known here
JOeL
June 11th, 2007 at 7:33 am
thanks a lot…its great…BTW. what is acoustics? can it make my phone louder? sometimes i cant hear my phone rnging. if there any other way to do it… let me know.
June 11th, 2007 at 12:57 pm
Acoustics are sound drivers for the cell…
They include drivers for ringing volume, ear phone/headphone vol, external speaker volume, call volume,ringin volume, etc…
I have added new cam and audio drivers, will add more when theres time..
you need to replace the files in the following directory of your phone
ifs/settings/acoustic/
You need to follow the same procedure …i.e using FAR+ XS++ then access the directory and replace audio drivers.
NOTE: Dont forget to backup your previous files before deleting them.
June 11th, 2007 at 1:30 pm
Error: cannot open the communication port! is what I get when i try to connect my phone (part F).. Can anyone please help?
Thanks
June 11th, 2007 at 1:48 pm
for your infrmation.. i cant get into my phone using xs.. i just can upload it.. if i upload it, it will replace the original files..will you kindly upload the original files for me to keep it as backup? for the camera driver..if i change it.. will there be any different? like the pics quality?
June 11th, 2007 at 3:16 pm
@ pouya…
Did u install the USB drivers?
@wan
Oh yeah.. i forgot that ur phone is Brown
As far as the pics are concerned… its etirely ur taste… But i feel overall the default cam driver is good…
But there are drivers like Super cam dirver 8.4, sarmad , etc which give excellent closeup images… but not normal images….
I dont have default acoustics but i have default cam driver…
June 11th, 2007 at 3:49 pm
what software that i need to use to make a flash menu? f u know one, can u upload it or gimme the address?
June 11th, 2007 at 4:14 pm
Macromedia Flash
June 11th, 2007 at 8:22 pm
Hmmmm…
Excellent tutorials on making flash files. Good work Joel.
Therez just 1 problem though. See all the new flash files you’ve uploaded? It has this weird stopwatch as one of the menus which when actually clicked on is supposed to open a sports menu or something like that. Now since that isn’t available on a w810i, it just does nothing. Now that should be actually replaced by the radio. Is there any way to do that? How?
See if you can do something….
Thannks!!!
June 11th, 2007 at 8:27 pm
would you give me the exact directory to upload the acoustic? and can u upload simplee and crayon desktop flash menu? i saw these two at topsony.
June 11th, 2007 at 10:56 pm
No that clock aint actually a clock…its a radio icon…
The active desktop black has been fixed of that bug…
wen u click it …its hows white screen …connect ur headphones …then it will b fine…
Post updated…new cam and menus added
June 12th, 2007 at 11:01 am
thanks..the themes were great… i cant replace my sound driver cause i dont have the original files for backup..anyone please help me…anyway, thanks a lot joel.
June 12th, 2007 at 2:53 pm
@ wan …
i have the original ones…
but trust me.. Once you use Qwerty you won’t look back at your old acoustics…
June 12th, 2007 at 2:54 pm
is there any limit to upload the flash menu?
June 12th, 2007 at 2:58 pm
@franz
qwerty? which version? which is better? the toshara or qwerty? teach me how..
June 12th, 2007 at 3:25 pm
I dont know how to install the USB Drivers! there is no EXE file to run!
June 12th, 2007 at 4:11 pm
Extract the USB drivers to a specific location….
Now start XS++ then remove sim, MC, switch off cell, then connect cell holding the ‘C’ button. It will automatically detect n ask for drivers..browse the extracted USB drivers then install them….
June 12th, 2007 at 7:12 pm
@ franz
would you upload the original files for audio? i want to keep it just in case…
@ joel
ifs/settings/acoustic/ this is the directory that i should upload the acoustic right?
June 12th, 2007 at 7:19 pm
yo joel does it matter if i get a diffrent firmware because apparently
CDA 102494/133 R 1A cxc 1250324 R4DB005
or
CDA102494/56 - O2 United Kingdom
is non-existant.
June 12th, 2007 at 10:21 pm
@Wan
Yeah! Thats the location
@ sandmanbeta
Its alrite if u patch the Main with the firmware in the post…
Or else just update the firmware to R4EA031 using SEUS
then carry on modding
June 12th, 2007 at 10:48 pm
thanx.. ive uploaded the sound driver..its louder than b4.. then ive tried the kriomag.. its brilliant.. the macro mode is my main usage of the phone..this will help me much.. btw, will it harm my lens? coz sometmes i heard scratching when i capture a photo. n btween toshara 1.6/1.4/qwerty acoustic, which will u preferred? n also the camdriver.. i need u to make the choice.. coz you are an EXPERT in this.. thnks a lot..
June 13th, 2007 at 4:24 pm
I have added firmwares lis as well in post…
The best acoustic depends upon your taste
For me the qwerty is great
There wont be any probs for the lens …dont worry
Cam driver i need for every use.. not only for close lookups… so i use default
June 13th, 2007 at 4:29 pm
@ wan
Use qwerty v1.4
Use 8.54… best overall..
June 13th, 2007 at 9:06 pm
@ all
my friend cant mod the acoustic fr his w700i phone.
his version is cid49,red,db2010…
June 14th, 2007 at 11:04 pm
joel!
can w710i be modded?
June 14th, 2007 at 11:15 pm
W710i supports flash menus….
But sadly you can’t use the w810 acoustics as w710i has different type of acoustics>> .zapf. BUt the w850,w880 acoustics wil work on a W710i.
BTW you cant use the FAR method in the above tutorial for a W710i as its a CID52 phone…
THese kinda phone are currently not supported by XS++
u can try this method of hackin tho…

i just wanna flsh my phone, an i am stuck on flash block 5/5. it never completes the flash… just says finishing flash.
June 22nd, 2007 at 5:38 am
actually, ignore all of my last comments, i’ve flshed my phone and got menues onto it… nice Tutorial.
June 22nd, 2007 at 11:59 am
like sandmanbeta, it just says finishing flash. it never says done flashing. should i disconnect anyways? well i did and tried doing the Far thing, but after entering the matrix, it does not take me to the file system of the phone. it instead takes me right back to the main Far screen. i dont get any errors, but it just goes straight to the main screen. what am i doing wrong? please help! thanks.
June 22nd, 2007 at 8:25 pm
@ sandmanbeta:-
Oh you mean it happens when flashing the w810_p3k_dcu.49R.ssw
Dont worry you can disconnect after all the flash blocks are done that is 5/5.
It will be done within 5 secs, if it gets stuck just stop the process and disconnect phone.
@ ace
Did u patch the file sefp0.10.0.51patch.exe
June 22nd, 2007 at 10:31 pm
no i did not patch that file. where can i get it from? is it in the required things that you have listed above?
June 22nd, 2007 at 10:50 pm
Okay, I did patch the file, but now I get an error. After entering the matrix, it get the following error:
Unable to open device: EPIUSB Check for EPIUSB.SYS driver installed.
So now what do I do?
June 22nd, 2007 at 10:57 pm
Okay, sorry for the multiple posts, but the error message went away. Its doing the same thing it did before I patched it. After entering the matrix, it takes be right back to the main Far screen. It doesnt take me to the file system of the phone. Any ideas?
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:03 am
hi,when i try to Extract db2010cid49_4_alpha.rar.zip (den_po’s CID49 pack) to FAR\plugins using winzip it says cannot open file because it doesnt appear to be a valid archive. ive tried redownloading it and it doesnt want to work. what should i do?
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:03 pm
ok,so i downloaded winrar and it extracted fine…im having trouble connecting to xs though.i take out everything just as in the tutorial but it sais Error: cannot open the communication port. i read that sandmanbeta also had this problem but im not sure how he fixed it. any suggestions on what i should do? thanks
June 23rd, 2007 at 1:19 pm
the problem was i didnt install the flash drive properly…now im stuck on flashblock 5/5 its been 5 minutes and i understand it suppose to take less than 20 seconds.and i dont want to damage the phone by stopping….what should my next step b?
thanks
June 23rd, 2007 at 6:28 pm
@ace
Did u remove the battery n try??
@cesar
i have mentioned clearly in the tutorial …..
In case it takes more than 20sec, just simply stop the process n disconnect.
June 24th, 2007 at 12:52 am
Okay, I got into the file system of the phone. Now, how do I upload the swf files so that i can see them in Far, under FS. How do I upload the theme files.
June 24th, 2007 at 12:57 am
swf files are to be uploaded in FAR
theme files are to be uploaded phone mem….
June 24th, 2007 at 1:06 am
when you say uploaded in Far, what do you mean. how exactly do i do it?
June 24th, 2007 at 2:03 am
Okay nvm. You can disregard my last post. I got everything to work. Thanks for all the help!
June 24th, 2007 at 10:02 am

Hi,
i wanted to put new flash menu’s on my w810i.
but i have a question…
do i have to flash it..its unbranded and its updated..
when i’m connecting with XS++ its saying..”choose the way you want it in” or so…but i dont know how to choose a way…
pls help me..
June 25th, 2007 at 12:10 am
how do i upload the files to my phone, the way i do it is just by draging and droping the files from my far dir to /tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash. is this the correct method?
i dont thnk so cos the themes dont include the flash menu when i set them , but the theme still works, what am i doing wrong??
June 25th, 2007 at 3:23 am
i finnaly did it!!!!!, all i needed to do was delete a file named “disable flash..” . after that flash now works , yessss!!!
June 26th, 2007 at 9:50 am
Hello..
First, Thanks Joel for the wonderful guide..
I was doing this whole procedure for my w810, and Did the first part with XS++, and then With Far Manager, Pressed F11, Checked the right settings, it detected my cellphone. And I get to the point where I can see FS and Flash folders on my cellphone, but if I try to get in any of them I get the following message:
can be used with Service Cable ONLY
Error code: 121
And can’t go any further, I’m using the DCU-60 cable and I’ve been able to Update my firmware via SEUS and also the XS++ part.
Is there anything I’m missing? Do I have to do something in particular?
Help will be appreciated, I know you are a Busy Man.. But Please help this guy out :)
Thanks,
Moises aka Th3R1pp3r
June 26th, 2007 at 12:31 pm
Hey!! Everything is working now, I just missed the part on patching the dll file..
Thanks Again ;)
June 26th, 2007 at 1:20 pm
hi can i just use xs++ to upload flash file in my phone, cus its all i want, btw can i just put all .swf files in files_to_upload\tpa\preset\system\desktop\flash\orbit clubpulse activeblack etc. so that i dont have to upload it 1 at a time to save time :) or its not possible and i have to put it 1 file at a time? :(
thnx
June 26th, 2007 at 5:58 pm
@thorn
U can just place all files in the files to upload directory….
files_to_upload\tpa\preset\system\desktop\flash\
BTW the Far method is better as Phone XS uses bruteforcing…. which takes lot of time
June 26th, 2007 at 7:24 pm
@ anyone, for the camera and acoustic drivers do u just copy the extracted file containing the drivers. and if so do i need to delete (and make a copy of) the original drivers.
BTW which in your opinion is the best camera and acoustic driver.
and also what is Spot Photometry support?
June 26th, 2007 at 7:52 pm
BTW can i edit the colour and icons of my walkman facility, if so how??????????
June 26th, 2007 at 8:47 pm
Hey.. After going to bed after 4am Last Night messing with all the Flash Menus, and themes.. (Found some of the themes have wrong .swf names in the xml file)..
I came back, and Noticed that on the Preview Pictures On top of this Page.. The Menu screen shot under the Walkman Dance Menu, (The Red One).. I didn’t see that Flash Menu, Can anyone tell me which Flash Menu is that? And What Theme uses it?
Thank you,
Th3R1pp3r
June 26th, 2007 at 9:01 pm
@ Th3R1pp3r Walkman Beam.
June 26th, 2007 at 11:17 pm
Thanks sandmanbeta
I found the .swf and the thm for Walkman Beam on 4shared.com ;)
I’ll try it later today..
June 26th, 2007 at 11:20 pm
Back Sooner than thought… I tried the .thm wthout having the .swf in the cell just to see…
And noticed that the Main Screen Background is smaller.. So it’s not 176×220 :S… Anyone knows where I could get the highr resolution version of the Walman Beam ?
Thanks ;)
Th3R1pp3r
June 26th, 2007 at 11:20 pm
Yous should make themes compatible with the .swf files by targeting same names of swf files.
CHeck the tutorial …
theres a theme making guide at the end
June 26th, 2007 at 11:59 pm
can sombody post a link with .thm files only, because iam sure that sombody has made them, i find the tugzip method too long.
BTW can the link be a diffrent .thm package, appart from “thema’s”.
June 27th, 2007 at 12:29 am
theme guide is long??
oh wel…
BTW everyone doesnt upload the .swf’s with same file names…so its a bit difficult job to upload
BTW i have themes for most of the .swfs
June 27th, 2007 at 1:18 am
“BTW i have themes for most of the .swfs”
Share them with us :D
Th3R1pp3r
June 27th, 2007 at 2:59 am
It’s me again.
Just to check, I haven’t been able to have the theme “Citybeat” to work properly, I mean I get the Flash Menu, but the Standby / Wallpaper animation doesn’t work.. I just get a Black Screen.. Also I was checking the XML file and Noticed it tries to use “standby.swf” as it’s background but I haven’t figured out a way to get it to work.. I copied that swf to the other Flash MEnu folder and stills is not working..
Anyone else has a workaround for it?
Thanks,

@joel

IMEI name does not match GDFS name (IMEI:NULL GDFS:W810)” (but it contineous to brute force my phone)is this normal?
i also use the xs++v1.5 same procedure as in v1.2 but wen i start sfx it says “choose your way in” any idea also? thnx w8in for reply
June 27th, 2007 at 12:14 pm
i got into the system successfully once, but didn’t delete the “disable flash” file. so i want to get into the system again. i made it through until the folder FLASH and FS appeared. but when i tried to enter the FLASH folder, an error box appeared saying: unable to run flash_mode script. Error code: 0. any ideas??
June 27th, 2007 at 5:10 pm
hey i uploaded all the .swf files all working except for the iphone.swf, wen i go to menu and choose a task like messeges and clik on it, NOTHING happen only the FILE MANAGER works maybe its the only one working so that u can choose another theme lol, for the creator of this iphone.swf file F@!7 YOU!
btw im thinking about putting the acustic file, but does it really make a deference? im good at wat i have now, BUT I WANNA MAKE RINGTONES LOUD WITHOUT SACRIFICING THE SOUND QUALITY…
TY
June 27th, 2007 at 7:27 pm
thorn,
I tried those
“ToShaRa_Mega_Acoustic_v1.6_High_Quality_And_Loudness.zip”
I’m pleased with them, Really High Volume, but unfortunately not for Speaker Mode (Conversation).. But now I Don’t have to set the volume to max on ringtones and also when Listening to the Radio or Mp3s… It’s very powerfull and so far no Bad Sound Quality.. If it sounds a little distorded it’s because the phone speakers are not that powerfull.. but just bring the volume down a bit and no problem…
As for Headphones it’s great for headphones… High Sound Quality and Very Powerful Output..
June 27th, 2007 at 7:38 pm
how bout the mega bass? does the driver boost the mega bass? cus i wanna have a good heart punding bass hehehe, btw wat u mean by speaker mode? the 3 tiny speaker hole of the phone or the earpiece in which we hear the person we wer talking to? have u tried the qwerty driver also? cus i have read alot of articles about it so i was wondering if u have tried it b4?
thnx man..
June 27th, 2007 at 10:17 pm
Speaker>> speakers
Use Qwerty acoustics they are the best,…you wont regret..
If you take consideration on all aspects certainly qwerty wins the game
June 27th, 2007 at 11:26 pm
@joel
man all volume can be increase by qwerty without sacrificing sound quality? cus i wanna use it if only it can give me the boost i need without compromising sound quality, are u using it on ur phone? sorry for my bad english…btw the iphone .swf dont work, only the file manager work in the menu lol 1 more thing how can i erase the .swf file i uploaded? is there a way to erase it?
t.y.
June 28th, 2007 at 8:15 pm
Hello Joel,
First, thank you for this awesome tutorial. I’m glad I found it! I was planning on upgrading the camera driver for my w810i but since you mentionned the default takes the best ‘casual pictures’, I think I will keep the default one. However, I’m interested in using the QWERTY acoustic driver to improve sound level and such.
I debranded my w810i using DaVinci client. I used R4EA031 GENERIC US with a customized file to disable camera shutter sound when in silent mode. Furthermore, I used the option to enable AMR on the phone (my carrier uses it well). My CDA is currently 123456/123 (I was told it’s normal even though GENERIC US is 102555/15 because I used a custom FS file).
My questions (finally ;) are:
1- Do I need to flash my phone with the BreakLoader to enter the phone FS with FARmanager? (my phone is already debranded)
2- If so, since it only seems the MAIN part is involved, I wouldn’t be losing all my settings and contacts right?
3- Does W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49 correspond to my current firmware (R4EA031 GENERIC US CDA102555/15)?
Thank you very much,
Alex
P.S.: You can reach me at shakkan at hotmail if you prefer so. :)

Hello Mr Joel,
i just follow the tutorial, i didnt select other button.what do you mean by “GDFS is curropted”?is’t mean that my phone is broken?if it had been broken how can i fix it?
July 8th, 2007 at 8:14 pm
Hi everyone
I debrand my w810 with Davinci, try to put some flash menu with XS and FAR but my first experiment failled.
So I flashed my phone with FS++ and FAR to recover it and it worked. But now I try again to put some flash menu and
I keep blocked with FAR after flash with the loader (with XS++).
Far block at this step : http://alexx67.free.fr/test/far-w810.JPG
Do you have any idea to fix it please ?
July 8th, 2007 at 10:19 pm
did u remove battery for 10 sec??
July 8th, 2007 at 10:27 pm
Joel, you mean juste befor using FAR ?
I just removed the battery, and replace it. Do I need waiting 10 sec ?
July 9th, 2007 at 12:07 am
yea….u need to wait for some time
July 9th, 2007 at 12:40 am
ok
I’ll try this way.
Thanks
July 9th, 2007 at 3:20 am
I have flashed my z710 to w710, is there any way to add more flash menus to this phone.. all attempts so far have been unsuccessful
July 9th, 2007 at 9:11 am
Currently this method doesnt allow to add flash menus in W710
July 12th, 2007 at 10:57 pm
After entering the matrix it takes me back to the main FM screen! i have flashed the sefp.fll file and stil no change..
July 14th, 2007 at 1:16 pm
For the people asking about using mp3 ringtunes, go to the sony developer website and download the drm packager, then package your mp3s with it and they can be used no problem despite size.
As for me, i have just followed all the steps in this guide and the phone is working perfectly, however the new menu’s do not initialize. And i have made sure the themes are accomodating the new swf files…
Is this because i have a Rogers branded phone?

I have the same problem. I flashed W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49.rar on my w810. After removing battery and redding it, the mobile does not recognize my sim.
what should i do?
thanks

flash_mode execution error ????
July 18th, 2007 at 3:47 pm
Even after flashing W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49 using XS++ and getting my phone corrupted, I tried to upgrade firmware using sony ericcson suite. It upgrades my phone but the problem remains.
Is there any way to recovering my phone? I can not do anything with it. Even its audio does not work.

let me re-correct my earlier comment
none of the downloads work
July 19th, 2007 at 1:23 am
So I’ve sucessfully flashed my phone I think…… I have the W300i.
But when I go to enter FS it just turns on the phone and locks up Far with the “Sending break_in ldr: cid49run: Sent 1 byte(s)”
“Command progress: 1 of 1 byte(s)
100%
did I do something wrong? the phone works fine, but I want to change the opening phone sounds (not the startup/ powerup) but when you open the phone… right now it’s the default sound of breaking glass…. or something….. lol I want to use my own MP3 for the sound….
July 19th, 2007 at 8:08 pm
Ok so now I’ve tried the flash again, and this time in Far I get something to load when I click FS. It says that it’s trying to use break in code henrixr2e, but it just sits at 1/ 3751 bytes and doesn’t move I left for eight hours plus and NOTHING. :(
July 19th, 2007 at 10:29 pm
clean the cable pins properly…..
did u remove battery for 5 secs?? Did u flash the correct break in loader?
did u patch the sefp.dll with sefp0.10.0.51patch.exe?
@kenmasters0
Yeah! you need to debrand it!
@hadi
Dont worry man… Its because the MAIN is not correspondin to respective FS
Find a suitable FS and flash it
July 19th, 2007 at 11:17 pm
My phone will not power up after flashing. I did patch the sefp.dll with sefp0.10.0.51patch.exe and I did remove the battery. Do I have to flash it with W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49 using XS++ or do I use W810_R4ED001_FS_EUROPE_2_RED49 which shows to be suited for my phone?
July 19th, 2007 at 11:34 pm
The correct break in loader?
I thought there was only one to use….
I did remove the battery for more than five seconds, and I did use the SEFP Patch.
My phone is db2010 cid 49 red, which is the correct break in loader? I used BOTH (at different times) w300_p3k_dcu.49R.ssw and the w810_p3k_dcu.49R.ssw, and both did not work.

Hi,
I flashed several times the main fw and fs firmwares. But newly the screen shows a “please wait” dialog with a progress bar starts from l and after a while reaches to the a and waits for a long time.
The fw I flashed was W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49 .mbn and the fs was W810_R4ED001_FS_APAC_RED49.fbn I had choose this fw because XS++ log says something like this.

I tried XS++ with activated “Customize Filesystem” with various parameters (Brute, …) . And also do it without checking that option.
What may let me free from this state?
Thanks
