UPDATE: Sony Ericsson Update Service links removed, Don’t Update your phone with SEUS.
In this tutorial we discuss how to apply patches
Using patches you can improve the features of your phone and also change the graphics of the phone. You can remap folders in FS to phone memory and change acoustics, camera drivers and other stuff easily. With patches you can also disable many messages and bypass them to continue. For example you can bypass the “Insert handsfree message” to start the radio without the handsfree. And many more.
Patch is a piece of code which is applied to the Main firmware. By Applying a patch the parts of main firmware are modified. Main firmware consists of many flash blocks. Each flash block has an address and information stash. A patch is applied to a particular flash block to change the variables and codes in the flash block. A patch contains the address of the flash block to be patched and the code to be changed in a flash block
Patching with db2020 bypass security takes lots of time. Hence den_po came with the idea of quick access patch and implemented in his Jdflasher. Which was then taken by the_laser and implemented in his Setool 2 lite.
db2020 phones are k530 k550 k610 k770 k790 k800 k810 and w580 w610 w660 w710 w830 w850 w880 etc.
Patches for firmwares are available here english or here russian
I have included the video tutorials in the Setool 2 lite download archive. Here we have the text tutorial with explanations of actions and important information.
The Tutorial
Direct Download Download Link.
UPDATE: SEUS now updates all phones to CID53 hence disabling SeTool 2 lite and XS++ support for your phone. So Do Not update your phone with SEUS. SEUS was used to install USB Flash drivers, now we have to manually do this.
Hence now Please follow this tutorial to install USB Flash drivers !
2. Shutdown phone. Reinsert battery.
3. Choose Your phone in Phone type. Click Read GDFS.
4. Connect phone to Setool 2 lite holding C.
5. Wait for few seconds. Leave C when phone is detected.
6. When Setool is done it says “Elapsed:xx secs” , Then unplug phone. Reinsert Battery.
Note: Backup of GDFS to be made only for the first time. Backup GDFS once with Setool 2 lite and also once with XS++ if you have not done yet. Then store your GDFS safely. You can also go through GDFS backup in tutorial section for more on gdfs.
In phone Model you can choose any db2020 model .. if you have a k770 .. you can choose phone model as w610 or w880 or any db2020 phone mentioned earlier !!
Apply Quick Access Patch
First we enable quick access patching for your firmware using db2020 security bypass and from then on apply other patches using quick access patch.
Drag and Drop your Main Firmware on qamaker.exe , it will generate the quick access patch .vkp for your firmware. Qamaker is included in the Setool 2 lite download archive.
Note. Download the Main firmware for your phone from Topse.ru if you don’t have. Or Goto Contact Section of this website and make a request for the Main firmware for your phone. I will get back to you.
Now start SeTool 2 Lite
In Files box click add and add the main firmware you used to generate quick access patch.
Now in Misc Files click ‘….’ and add the quick access vkp patch generated.
Check Bypass db2020 Security ! Press Flash. Reinsert Battery and connect phone holding C. Leave C when phone gets detected and operation starts. Wait for db2020 security bypass operations
When done setool 2 lite asks you to unplug phone, reinsert battery, Press READY and then connect phone holding C. Do it in order, Correctly.
SeTool 2 lite Flashes the Main. When main is flashed it starts to apply the patch.
It asks you to Click NO to apply the patch and YES To Remove the Patch. Hence Click No. Wait for a few minutes. Patching will complete and you have successfully applied the quick access patch.
Once you applied quick access patch you apply all other patches by the method given below
Patching
Now get patches from mobilefree.ru (from here) . Patch is basically a text code.
Find out patches for your firmware. If your firmware is a w610 R6BC002 then look out for w610 R6BC002 patches.
Copy the code in notepad and click ‘save as’ and in Save as type choose >> ‘All Files’ and then save it as >> patchname.vkp give any name of your choice
Start Setool 2 lite. Select Phone Model. Check use “quick access” patch.
In Misc Files click ‘….’ and select the patch that you want to apply. the patch that you just now saved as patchname.vkp
Click Write Script.
Reinsert battery and connect phone holding C, Leave C when phone is ready . Then setool 2 lite asks you to click No to apply the patch and click yes to remove the patch. Hence click no. If it says some patch values differs then click yes and continue applying the patch.
The patch will be then applied. After patching is done setool 2 lite says .vkp executed disconnect phone reinsert battery and start your phone.
Also go through the video tutorials included in the setool 2 lite 1.1 archive. !
You must also know how to extract an FS because some patches require that you place some files in M2 Card. Such as to use a patch that replaces /tpa/preset/system/desktop to /usb/other/flash
you must first create folder “flash” in Other folder in phone using file manager and then copy the contents of FS/tpa/preset/system/desktop To /usb/other/flash and then apply the patch or else phone might fail to start the menu !!
So Learn to Extract an FS from here and study the FS of a phone
Links For Patches !!!!!!!! Firmware Specific !
NOTE: There are problems if you access the russian sites using google translator, the code that you copy is copied twice over. So while copying codes use the russian version of the sites.

Important >> Always press correct button. Many have killed their phones by pressing Write GDFS instead of Write Script. See that you press Write SCRIPT button while patching !
Note : If you make a mistake, your phone will mostly get bricked ! In that case you should reflash your main with XS++ or SeTool 2 lite ! If Your phone is completely dead when no Tool like XS++ or SeTool 2 lite can detect it or when red light blinks ! Red Light blink problem can be fixed ! Please be careful and don’t use wrong files and wrong button !
For applying sysgrafix path use JDflasher, Its faster and better in every respect and ease of use once you used it 😉 !
That’s it folks !
Regards !!
Akshay
Kudos to you Akshay…!! Just wanted to know that is there any harm if we apply the patch to run radio without the headsets…??? THanxi n advance..! Great Work…. Keep Going
nce..man!!
hey akshay m mod so sony erricsrion flashing comm..u knw me…really nice man..u rock
pictures broken links fixed !! guys !
When I download Setool 2 lite, my anti-virus program says that application contains viruses and it’s dangerous 4 computer…
yes some anti virus hv problems with setool 2 . its mentioned even at the official site
disable all anitvirus while using setool 2lite.. ! i am serious .. if anti virus stops setool 2 lite in between of patching and unlocking the phone will be bricked.
Setool 2 lite is no virus . its safe . its go no virus in it. its used by many to unlock phones and debrand.
I need Main Firmware for my K790 R1KG001 FS S ASIA LEVAN RED52 phone which am unable to download from topse.ru site. can anyone provide me the firmware
hey man download R6BC002 .. its the latest firmware for k790 and flash that in the phone using xs++, and u can apply patch for it. R1KG001 is pretty old.. you can download it from cybershot.4shared.com
or wait let me see what i can do
Hey man i used w580 today i applied a patched named move_flash_to_other.vkp after dat how can i use flash menus on MS ?My previous flash menus not working after applied dat patch any idea or suggestion ?
well ..!! the patch would have moved the flash folder from FS to M2 card or phone memory
you must now download all flash menus and copy them to phone memory where the patch says
if patch says something like this.. then copy all flash menus to flash folder in other folder
usb/other/flash.
Am unable to use qamaker.exe, u said to drag and drop main firmware on to qamaker so that it generates .vkp file. i’ve done the same but there wont be any response from the application even after dropping the firmware file. if i press enter the qamamker.exe is closing
then do it in DOS ..!! using command linke interface
like this qamaker.exe firmware.mbn .. it worked for me and many others .. plzz !!
u must drag correct main file the .mbn file .. unrar it first ..!
Hello Akshay.. one more question to u… can i add radio to K510 by using XS++….. and how can i play radio without headphone (for any phone)
plz give me links for tutorials on how to do it….
thnks in advance….also send a reply in mail….
sorry … i posted comment at wrong place…
Excellent tutorial by Akshay and not to forget da quick email replies.
Have patched my K790i with MegaBass and it works like charm.
Once again thanks to Akshay and his wonderful blog.
Keep up the good work.
simple sumegh i replied via mail ;)!
I have a locked K550i that I want to unlock and patch to w610i. Should I apply the unlock patch first, then apply the w610i patch, or the other way round? Thanks!
There is no need for unlocking it before flashing, because by flashing you flash the firmware that you could unlock.
So first flash it to w610i as http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/crossflashing/flash-k550-to-w610/ says, and then follow this tutorial and apply Quick Access Patch. Then create the vkp patch to unlock your main firmware with the same mbn file you used to flash to w610i: http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/tutorials/unlock-db2020-se-phones/
Then apply it as this tutorials says.
Is this clear? 😀
I have tried to patch my k810i to increase my sms ringing time to 60 sec.
but since then when ever i try to write a new message it gets hanged.
pleasse HELP.
PLEASE HELP FAST
Also is it time to back up from gdfs?
HELP FAST PLEASE
you can gdfs backup now also no prob
to get rid of your problem .. remove patch .. apply patch again .. then setool 2 aks weather u want to apply patch or remove.. select remove … or reflash main
Wow, I thought I can only remove by reflashing main. So cool I don’t have to. 🙂
Hi Akshay, I have tried removing the patch(still getting stuck while writing new message). I then tried restoring the GDFS. But the problem still persists. What should i do?
I have one more GDFS backup of my mobile made 2 days ago. Can i use that also and try?
Also what did you mean by reflash main?
oisik adak .. so now there is only one way to fix it
reflash main .. you should not unnecessarily do gdfs write
to flash main .. follow this tutorial .. the video one
but remember flash only main .. don’t do FS and Custpack flash .. the video shows all .. main fs and custpack flash .. but you flash only main
this is the link to flash main tutorial
http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/tutorials/flash-firmwaredebrand-with-xs/
THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!!!
AKSHAY you are the greatest.
It worked…….
It is now fully functional as before.
Thanks a lot.
hey akshay. can u tell me how to delete all the applications and games in our w610i via XS++. I patched my cell and then these app are not getting deleted but they work. if i try to delete them operation failed mess. comes. Should i have to format my memory card. pls reply. i’m waiting.
delete it from ams dir .. i dont know exactly whre
search it using FSX ..!!
hi when i copy and paste a patch from the russian site, Russian, not the google translation version
I Save as type choose “all files” then name it “anything.vkp”
what about the other option below that, Encoding does that stay as ANSI or what? as a pop up window opens up and says this file contains characters in unicode which will be lost if saved in ANSI encoded text file.
or is that correct
cheers.
Everytime i flash the 1st time with db020 it kills the phone
I have now reinstlled via seus 3 times now
and no idea where i am going wrong
i am following the tutorials but after the 1st flash the phone wont switch on
could someone help me please
u r very kind
Many thanks
^^^^
wot have u xactly done ???
first step is 2 update via seus.
den install usb flash drivers if necessarry.
after this, u can customize ur phone ,
add patches …..
if nothin works , the do a full reflash of ur phone
i.e reflashing main , fs & den customizing fs.
ok i have updated zeus. then flashed with main, fs and custompack with xs+
i have then tried to apply patch via setools with vkp.
atvthis stage everything goes ok in lef hand window but can not turn phone on after
UNICODE or ANSI encoding .. does not affect the patch .. save as anyhing ..!!
jim why should phone turn on if you don’t flash main immediately after bypass . i seriously don’t know mistake you are doing .. this works very well .. its not working only for you ..
jim! Did you use the correct patch? Is your main firmware’s version the same as the patch’s? (W610i R6BC002 and apply ‘Patch for W610i R6BC002’, the phone type and the firmware version must match)
And if it refuses to start, then flash main again. 😉
How do i put animations in my k810 music player? ….. … Is there any patch or something…..?
how can one increase the sms memory in the phone. w610i can only support approx 800 odd messages. is there a patch for increasing the memory capacity.
K810 Music player is not walkman, therefore it does not support skins. You can only patch its main firmware to change its background, but it needs png format, so no animations allowed (AFAIK).
I doubt that you could increase the sms memory, but I suggest using MyPhoneExplorer, which can store your messages on your PC. 😉
i have k550i flashed with w610i firmware main fs and custompack is rcboo2 just like it says on my phone
i flashed this with sx++
with the firmware i have i use qamaker to make quick access vkp
the same firmware i use simunlock to generate vkp file
i open setools and tick bypass button and add quick access vkp
secondly i add vkp unlock patch (with this bootloader doesnt start up)
thats what i am doing
I have a locked K550i that I want to transform to w610i and then unlock. When should I backup GDFS? Straightaway or after changing to w610i firmware? Thanks very much.
its working now thankyou veryu much everyone
Akshay you are a star
Jim! What was the problem??! (what did you do?)
rs! You should follow the K550i->W610i CrossFlashing tutorial, and as it says, backup GDFS after updating with SEUS. 😉 (before flashing main)
Is there any patch or any thing… that wil password protect my keypad lock or password protect my menus in k810?…
Thanks for the guide, quite clear akshay.
followed quick guide to unlock k610i on 3 netweork. Changed sim to see if unlocked, getting message that insert correct sim(different to before locking as it was saying insert usim)?
So is the k610i not unlockabkle
you are doing some mistake … this is no quick tutorial .. its full and detailed .. read and unlock your phone …. as i said .. this unlocks any db2020 phone .. and your phone is a db2020 phone.
please don’t tell tis does work .. this how patch unlocking of phones is done [;)]
Sorry, i meant quick access patch instead of the “quick quide”
Thank you Akshay. Excellent tutorial. The process a bit long for the first timer. It works!!
One question, It is necessary to apply the quick access patch ? and not just the second part patch. The reason I said this is during the 2nd part, it did not report any difference in the patches. Your tutorial says click yes to apply the diferences.
if u don’t apply quick access then applying patch will take 20-25 minutes extra which will drain phone battery and phone will shutdown in between patching process .. !!
hey gfx patches are taking a long time…….. i mean a patch around 30 kb takes 5 minutes… ne faster way…?
ok ….. we will write JD flasher tutorial .. it does it quick
Akshay, just top let u know i’ve unlocked the k610i, did not do the 2nd part of the tutorial. Many thanks for a great tutorial
Thanks for reporting .. congrats
Yo man, tnx for yur tu2rials, it works 2me.
i hav a question.
If i gonna patch for a second time, shall i again do the whole process of patchin?
Or just the quick access.
I already patchd my phone but its already quite sometym…
Hopin 4 yu answer.
yes right .. just quick access this time as its said in tutorial .. !!
I exactly followed the tutorial but my Dutch T-Mobile W880i is not unlocked.
I did find out I had to keep “2” pressed instead of “c”. Took me a day…
What could be wrong?
i using K810i … can teach me how to patch mega bass to my phone …
Oops Martin sorry for late reply .. saw your comment now !!
you should not press 2 .. but C !!
yes you can .. just put the main firmware R8BA024 in phone and apply patch after reading patching tutorial .. !
may be i should really create patches for all firmwares instead of only for new ones .. but time .. !! damn .. lets see !
OMFG… I DID THE FLASH , BUT ONLY BROSED FOR THE PATCH FILE. THEN WENT I FINISHED FLASHING, MY PHONE TOTALLY SCREWED UP!!!!!!! SOMEONE HELP MEEEEEE
Jim that sucks
now do a full reflash of MAIN !
If possible flash FS and Custpack also !!
one more query for w610i, Will patches for r8b2024 work on 002 series. coz there are some gfx patches available and they are really cool. pls reply.
just delete setting file .. no backup … ! just do it .. don’t question 😉
if you extracted an fs u will know.. settings files are created again when deleted 😉
as i have said patches are Firmware Specific .. i repeat it here again .. !
w660 has 3g instead of Edge .. ! we have done our tests ..
my phone is R6BC002. k550i with a w610 main and K550 FS wich patches can i apply? w610?
would this work for me?
http://topse.ru/files/file5726.html
hey now your phone is w610 .. everything that applies for w610 applies for your phone … because of w610 main … !! simple !
thanks i got confused cuz setool tells me k550 then i didnt now wich to take :/ =)
hi there mate i have a sony ericsson k810i and i wanna unblock it because it is now blocked. Can you tellme how to unblock it please. thanks man
K810 is a DB2020 model. Therefore it needs the Quick-Access Patch and the SIMunlock patch. So first acquire a firmware for it (K810 Main, FS is not necessary but to avoid compatibility issues I suggest that you should flash FS, too).
Once you have that (and backed up contacts and data in the phone), flash the main and the FS. Then follow you follow this tutorial, generate the Quick-Access patch and apply it on the phone. And then generate the SIMunlock patch with this tutorial: http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/tutorials/unlock-db2020-se-phones/ .
To backup contacts you should use MyPhoneExplorer.
hey hi all!
i have 500i and i was trying to flash it to 580i and the 1st step 1. SEUS : Download i am not able to find that file plz help and plz give in details. thnkx
seus link is given .. its official sony ericsson update service
just google search it .. its free and safe
hey akshayy! tried using the sysgraphics tutorial was partly successful. However after imagetool imageprocessing is complete,the image cannot be replaced using replace image tool. A dialog box appears saying that the file exceeds size limit::in bytes.
can u hellp???
though the new version can replace that also
but its not recommended to use image greater then actual original size
hi i`ve successfully loaded quick launch patch using setool but when i try to flash unlock patch i get following error
attempting to load embedded bootloader
flash loader not responding
is there any fix for this problem please
thanks for great tutorials
sorry .. try to embedded boot loader ? are you sure you are following things correctly ??
if nothing is going right then Reflash Entire Main and FS and Custpack and then again start from first
thanks for quick reply will try full system flash from start. the above post referred to the last two lines shown in the left window of setool when i attempted to flash unlock.
Flash Unlock ??
if i see the logs then i can get a clear picture of what u were trying to do .. setool 2 and all softwares keep log of all events
now don’t post log here at this comment it will messup everything
hey akshay, can u post the jdflasher tutorial. i have heard that through jdflasher one can patch gfx contents fast. Is that so. what do u think abt it. Is is good?
ok .. its under construction 😉
I also heard that, and I agree, it is faster. Now we are waiting for Akshay, to modify the tutorial to his liking. 😀
Thanx,
but how Should I download content from topse.ru.
I cannot understand the language.
Please reply
http://translate.google.com/ 😉 but be careful, cuz when you copy and paste content, all lines will be double, so when download, don’t use translator, just when you are browsing. 😉
Thanks, Peti
hey i have a problem with setool, the gdfs reading is taking ages to backup? can some1 help me out here. i am using a sim free w580i, its been going on for more than 30 mins and still nothing is happening??????
Maybe try backing up with XS++… Though it shouldn’t take more than a few minutes. :S
i need a help… fter following all d instruction my fone went dead…and it wont run on se tool again, waht should i do…my fone is w580i from at and t tnx
You should be more exact… You applied a patch and now the phone can’t start? Well that happens sometimes, bad patch most likely. Try reflashing main (with XS++).
hey jecoric .. show your log
it happens if you do some mistake ! so now reflash main and it should get back alive ! Nothing to worry !
hi akshayy!
is there any way to apply patches to main while it is on the computer and then put the main into the phone with xs++ and the patches is there?
With the software we have… no. But we can apply patches on the phone and with SeTool2 – read flash, so download main firmware from the phone. Next time that can be flashed to another phone. (AFAIK)
you can apply patch to main on computer
but after you flash that main into phone and start your phone for first time with new main ! all blocks of main are checked !
its a check summed variable in EROM settings so phone won’t start at all
So if I uploaded a file that SeTool2 read from flash chips, that would kill my phone? 🙁
tnx for ur concern… but can pls tell me on how to do dat, wat program will i use? tnx again
one more thing i have a R7AC001 firmware, wat other firmware can i use cuase i cant find any thesame as mine…tnx!!!!
do what ? you can’t do it … phone wont start in that case ! use the currently available firmware for your phone .. availble on topse russia ! latest come there !
my hp is w580i
i need » R6BC002 » FS and MAIN > taiwan
pls…drop a link for me…
i found it at topsony…but cant download…
thks
Hi there,
Will this tutorial/software work on a K850i and can it be done on a mac?
i finally got it… tnx for the great help!!!!…is there anything i can do to help this site
VIRGEL87 ! sorry man ! try to find at ESNIPS
search in http://www.esnips.com
you might get it !
OLDEKINGCOLE ! no, db3150 unlocking is not released for free…. later it will be allowed free.. hopefully ! 😉
yeah all this won’t work on MAC for obvious reasons !
But he can use VirtualBox. 😉
hey akshay…well i applied some patches like the battery patch…whch makes da icon turn blue…but i dont like it…so how can i go bak to my old green battery icon??
Follow the patching tutorial as you did when you applied the patch. When Setool 2 lite asks you to click No to apply the patch and click yes to remove the patch, click YES. That’s all. 😉
Bro, my k790 is R1KG001 CDA102568/110 R6A cxc1250491 R1KG001 S_ASIA_LEVAN. TO UPGRADE TO WHICH R6BC002 SHOULD I DOWNLOAD??SHUD I GO WITH “MAIN” AND “FS_AMERICA”???
AND HOW TO UPGRADE TO WITH R6BCOO2??
AND HOW TO UPGRADE TO WITH THESE FILES?
hey dude check this out. it’s a link to a password patch. Unfortunately for rcb002. got a convertor for R8.
http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=20434&st=80&start=80
Rana. Don’t post 3 comments at once. You need to download XS++, K790_R6BC002_GENERIC_MAIN, K790_R6BC_ASIA_LEVAN_FS, and a custpack for K790. The problem is that I can’t find such files for your region. :S So you shuld download http://seflashing.extra.hu/?mode=dlSoft&name=XS31.ZIP , Main and FS should be downloaded from topse.ru, download K790 R6BC002 FS AMERICA 2 RED52, no prob, you just have to add your language to it.. As for custpack you can use http://sek750.extra.hu/letoltes/Custom%20Files/K790/HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_207_R2A_GENERIC_CENT_EUROPE.zip (I couldn’t find any other custpack for k790). Now before messing things up, backup your contacts and files with My Phone Explorer. Then extract the custpack to XS++’ directory in a new dir, called ‘own_custpack’. Follow http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/pimping/add-extra-languages/ to add your own language to the custpack, modify the customize.xml.
If that is done, start XS++, backup GDFS.
If that is done, then tick and select the main firmware and the FS, tick ‘Customize Filesystem’, there select own_custpack; and click Flash. Ask if something isn’t clear.
yogesh. You want us to port that patch to R8BA024?? Pretty hard work, but may be possible… for Akshay to do.XD
@Peti:
Thanx a ton for a quick reply.
“When done setool 2 lite asks you to unplug phone, reinsert battery, Press READY and then connect phone holding C. Do it in order, Correctly.”
I done it wrongly…
I reinsert battery,connect phone holding C, then only press ready…
So, do my patch still works after i done all the steps??? Btw, i did the megabass for this patch…
If SeTool continued, then it means that it installed the patch all right. I did the same with JDFlasher, and it was waiting for me to connect the phone (though it was online), so I unplugged, reinserted battery and then reconnected, and it worked.
If you could apply the MegaBass, or any other patch, then don’t worry, it is ok then. 😉
yea…SeTool continue it’s work although i didn’t follow the order. I guess it patch successfully….
Anyway, thanks for all the help and guide =)
np. =)
If SeTool doesn’t cry that it can’t do the patching, then it is ok. But use JDFlasher, it is much faster. 😉
Peti, after i patch my phone. Now my phone don’t have chinese input anymore :”)
What i should i do now?
I read some where that chinese input need different Main firmware. Is it thue?
typo:
true*
You mean you patched with SeTool and then it lost the chinese input but it had it before?:O What patch was it?
Also if you mean that you flashed the main to a generic one, then yes, I also read that you need a chinese firmware to have chinese input.
So patch or flash?
My phone originaly has chinese input. But after i followed every steps on the tutorial above, now my phone don’t have chinese input anymore =(
I flash with this one”K550_R6BC002_MAIN_GENERIC_LI_RED52.rar”.
So, what is the steps needed to have chinese input again and my megabass patch still work?
You have to obtain a CHINESE main firmware (mbn file). You have to flash that file on the phone. The patch you could use on the GENERIC one won’t work any longer since each patch works for only one firmware version.
ok…so do you have a megabass for chinese MAIN?
um i crossflahed my k550 to w610 n my phone is alwready unlocked 2 use any network but i saw some cool patches i would like on my phone so in order 2 do this do i still have 2 check the bypass security? even though my phone is unlocked? oh yea i cant back up gdfs in setool since i crossflashed =) it takes forever is that a bad thing? i have a back up of the original k550i gdfs though
You have to bypass security only once, to apply Quick-Access Patch. If it takes forever, then don’t do it. 😉 (Use XS++ if you have to backup GDFS, but you don’t even have to. 😀 )
do i really need 2 apply quick access patch all i want 2 do really is apply a brightness patch 2 help save battery
You have to do it only once, and I think you have applied it already, after than’t you can tick ‘Use “quick access” patch’, and only apply the patch you really want.
I found a patch that converts bluetooth so that i can use it as wifi. http://walkmans.wordpress.com/2008/01/27/bluetoot-to-wifi-gfx-patch-w580i-r6bc002/. I am not sure if this is true. Please reply if you know that it is possible or not. Thank You in advance
That is actually pretty far from making BT Wi-Fi, it is just a GFX patch, that means the icons for Bluetooth will be replaced with different icons, in some connection with wi-fi, but only graphic things, no extra function is added.
Oh, is it even possible to get wi fi on phone that does not have wi fi, using a patch or something? Do you know if there is a way to get free internet on a phone? Thanks
If I knew, my phone would have Wi-Fi all right. 😀
Is it possible to apply patches to a branded phone?
Yes, patches are applied on the main firmware, and branding is on the file system. But why would you use a branded phone if you can debrand it? =)
So that i dont lose warranty!! And also there is always a risk of messing up your phone while debranding. Is there a tutorial that shows how to apply patches to a branded phone? Thanks
You lose the warranty anyway. You flash the phone with underground tools, not SEUS. So warranty is gone. But this is the tutorial you are looking for.
I could always remove the patch and they wont even notice it was there right? Will adding new walkman skins lose warranty? And what warranty do i lose exactly, Sony Ericsson or AT&T?
By the way, what exactly is the point of debranding when you could apply patches and other stuff while it is branded?
Sorry but one more question, i went onto your new website that you made and realized that there were no patches for w580i, can i use the w610 patches on the w580i?
Once you do anything in the phone and not use SEUS… you lose warranty, as far as I know. Because you break the license agreement with SE, so warranty of SE.
Service providers add their stuff to the phone. Pictures, animations, sounds etc. you can get rid of them.
You can’t!! Patches are Firmaware (And phone type) dependent!
Hi, i am trying to download the firmaware patch for my Sony Ericcson k770i.
It is currently locked and i wish to unlock it and debrand it but can’t find matching firmware. It’s on R8BC004 at the moment. Does anyone have the patch for this.
sorry, actually you can use the firmware that is now already available.. no problems with that
Hi i was flashing my main on w850i.suddenly that msg came up.is it a bad sign for my w850i?pls pls pls

Hi akshay,
Do u know where can i find patches to change battery meter for k770 SW R8BA024?
Or do u hv any?
you can’t find for k770 i think so. i mean sysgfx patch
but you can download icons used in making patches for w580 or k810 or k790. because even k770 has same screen size
and using those icons you can create sysgfx patch using SE Image Tool
there is a tutorial to use it in this site. just search se image tool 😉
hi ya
when i switched on my phone updating from S500I To W580I
its says an error message like:
Configuration error
please contact yournetwork operator or
service centre.
but anyways please help:(
hey you forgot to flash CDA
no problems
now do it again
please see corssflashing section for more. read tutorial properly
hi ya
thank u for helping me out , but anyways the update is completed.
and to be honest your the best 🙂
I got problem when i want to put vkp file to my k530@w660 with setool v1.1.
I already got all da vkp files and follow the tutorial but it say “Bootloader not respond”.
What should i do to put vkp file to my phone?
Can someone help me?
Thanx for advance.
*Sorry for my terrible english.
eLModoes does your phone now start or not ? is it working ??
and i hope you are choosing correct phone. choose it as w610 or w660 or k550 or k530 and follow tutorial correctly
if not this then use JD flasher
I think i patched too many things on my w610i. Now i cannot access the calls menu and when an incoming call is coming through the phone either freezes or blanks out. Is this the case? and if so is there any way that i can take off all the patches that i put on?
to clear everything. reflash main using XS++.
else remove patches one by one
remember by reflashing main all is gone. you need to patch from start. QA also
so if i reflash my main all the patches wiill be gone and my phone will work properly again?
also i founds a certain patch that i like
if i reflash it will i still be able to put this patch on
If you reflash main, and apply Quick Access patch (on db2020), you will be able to put any patch on. (What is the phone by the way?)
hey i have a problem in applying quick access patch.. when i plug my phone after clicking write script my phone automatically turns on..tnx..
strange. you are not connecting phone properly
or not applied QA patch properly
thanks akshayy i did what u said and reflashed my w610i and that did it. I was also able to put the quick access patch back on and now i have a working phone and the patches that i like. Thanks Alot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Can I use this tutorial for unlocking K850i??
K850 is a DB3150 model, not DB2020 that the tutorial is for. In fact, currently you can’t do anythning (any flashing – customizing – pimping) with a K850.
hey does anyone know were i can get a folders patch for a w610i r6bc002?
hey are available at mobile free russia. link is provided in the tutorial
Though we should provide our own stuff, too.
Hey, thanks again for the great guide. I patched the ‘megabass’ and it worked like a charm 😉
Here’s a question. After I put in the ‘megabass’ patch, then I want to put another patch, lets say ‘radio without headset’ patch, do I have to generate new quick access patch via qamaker? Or maybe flash/bypass DB2020 security again? Thanks in advance. Really appreciate it 😉
Nope, I think the tutorial tells it. You only have to generate and apply QAP once. Before starting patching. Now that it is applied, you can apply any patch you like.
Oh okay. Now I get it 😀 however, after I applied the megabass patch, I applied the other patch ‘radio without headset’. But it seems like the patch is not working. It still says ‘please insert handset the cord work as antenna’ thingy. Now the broken patch is inside my phone 😮 is there any way to view what patches that I have applied inside the phone? Does the broken patch harm the phone if I applied the same patch again?
s500i to w580i-> done
flashed skins of walkman -> done (all ofem are cool)
fonts-> not done
increasing the volume->not done
please provide the links above which are not done.
great tutorial thanks!
Li Syaoran. either patch is incorrect or you selected wrong patch
removing patch is same as applying but you have to click no during appplying patch when it asks .. read this same tutorial properly.
Never mind. The radio patch works (using JDFlasher to patch) but it still need its antenna (handsfree) to play, else it will say ‘no channel found’. Thanks alot to Akshay and Peti. Both of you are really helpful and amazing. Without you guys, my phone is just a cheap stock phone 😛
Oh and Akshay. Its yes to remove, no to apply. Not yes to apply, no to remove 😛
Sadly applied patches can’t be viewed, but you can always remove them. Besides, if you try to apply a new patch to the same place in the phone, you will notice that it has changed since flashing the main on…
Li Syaron ! Thanks for correcting me. I used SeTool 2 lite only Once to apply patches.
I always use JD Flahser, its faster easier and cool. but many ppl don’t like the old blue dos like far manager. 😉
Yeah. Too bad the patches can’t be viewed. I like to use JDFlasher too. Much more easier for me. Don’t care about the blue dos 😛 again, thanks Akshay and Peti 🙂
I hate the blue dos UI to be honest, but I do know that JDFlasher is far more powerful than SeTool2, so I use it. Though someone should ask den_po to port it to Total Commander as wfx plugin.
plz reply 🙁 to above comments!

Hey Akshay, I wanted 2 ask u a question..
I got a forum in se-nse which had many patches for my K790i.
But while copying the code, do I have 2 copy the entire code OR just the last part????
For eg.:
What do I have 2 copy???

Plz, waitin 4 ur reply……
It doesn’t matter. The lines starting with semicolon ( ; ) are comment lines, so SeTool2 or JDFlasher doesn’t care about them. Though you’d better take the whole text, because comments are valuable when you don’t know what the patch does. 😉
thank u very much Peti…..
ur all doind a gr8 job….
kudos 2 u……..
kudos? 😀
thank u all.. i thought i bricked my SE k800i.. now it works like a charm.. Thanks.. all..
hey i did download cda file and xs++ v3. now the cda file that i have downloaded is HB1_06_Gen_CDA102568_15_R8A_GENERIC_AMERICA_1 is this correct?i have db2020 phone.

which phone… what cid ?? what db2020.
usb drivers installed properly ???
ok then try to use JDflasher.
you are surely making some mistake….
all this works flawlessly man
Hi Akshay,
This is not regarding patching. Do you know how to extract battery info from the phone?.I mean temp: current ect. if there is any tutorial or link to guide. please let me know
Extract? :O
You can see them when you connect the phone to pc and run MyPhoneExplorer, and also a lot of elves, likke SystemTemp, ClockBattMod display such info.
Helly akshayy
I already learned a lot on this website about unbranding SE-Mobiles. Your site and help is realy great…
…. I have a W880i (T-mobile) without simlock, but with the (dam-) branded menus, which i like to remove.
The basic USB connection works, means i can acces to the Memory stick and transfer some pictures to it..
But…..
I tried to use XS++ and SEtool2lt and i’m not able to get the communication between PC and Mobile…
I tryed the steps
“Remove battery – insert battery – connect cable – press C button” in every possible order at least 100 times….
-Windows XP don’t ask me for a specific USB driver!
-xs++
–>Error: Cannot open phone communication port
-SEtool
–>phone pre-boot failed,possible
–>Can’t load ID loader !
…. and i am close to throw this p..ce of s..t out of my window…
Could you help me further and save the live of my mobile 😉
i did not get your problems.
you first install usb flash drivers properly.
then reflash main and fs and cda using XS++
if its is redlight problem then reapir it using setool 2 lite.
hi akshay
can u give keypad lock password patches for K810i R6BC002
thanks & regards
anil
Houston we have a problem…. 🙂
When i do the manipulation….
-Switch off the phone
-switch on and hold “C” while connecting the USB cable… (i tried this in different orders about 100 times)
….my XP computer did not ask for a specific driver and either XS++ / setool work.
But the USB connection itself works, because i can download pictures to the Memorycard over the explorer thru USB.
Thats all about it… anything work like it should
U r doing it wrong slapshot.just load the drivers into ph. Avail on this site. Then open xs then off ph. , remove battery, insert battery, hold c,connect.it should work if done prop. Otherwise ask master akshay
Slapshot Connect while holding c.then it must detect.go with tutorials the way they are written,step by step and dont panic
You are doing it wrong.-.-
Switch off phone.
Remove and reinsert battery.
! Do not switch on.
Connect to pc holding “C”.
Hi goth / peti / akshayy
i read the tutorials on this site…
I did the connect procedure 100 times, first like it is written here and then in different orders, different speed of manipulation and so on…
@goth
You wrote:
“just load the drivers into ph. Avail on this site”
What, I should load the USB-drivers into the phone (ph.) and not into the PC ????
Now i am realy confused….
Thanks for your help!
Man jus read a tutorial on ‘installing usb flash drivers’ on this site i would have given the link but dis time em ans. Via mobile browser.dont confuse be straight.
Flash drivers must be installed on the pc, and read my previous post!!
You mean this site can be viewed with WAP?:O
wots up with top sony????????
How long i have to wait between “press C” until connecting the cable?
When i wait about 5 sec. my PC starts the phone monitor and says, that there is no sim-card in the phone… and i have no possibility to continue without sim-card….
When i connect the cable immedately after press C absolutely nothing happens….
cheers
Top Sony?? -.-
Can you connect it to XS++?
No, i can not connect to XS++ because the window “missing sim-card” reopen all the time until i un-connect the phone….
I tryed also the whole procedure on a 3rd PC, where i did not have any phone connected before….
…with the same result 🙁
and believe me guys… i read all the tutorials more than once….
cheers
Do you reinsert the battery?
shure !!! what a question….
i made all the steps
-Remove/insert battery
-Holding “C” while connecting
I just remarked, that the PC did not react the same, when i wait longer (5sec) until i connect….
… PC don’t ask for the driver and xs++ can not open the communicatin port…
hi akshay,
i have k790i and after that purchase, i got to know that it didnt contain MEGA BASS in it..
i cudnt install the downloaded patch on my vista pc…

also wen you click the link to go to the site to get the patches the page says connection timed out. I am wondering if i am the only one that this has happened too
akshay n peti…..

in above example offset 19ca3f0 has 00000000000000000000000000000000 value.but in firmware there are hundreds/thousands of places where values are 00000000000000000000000000000000.
so why do we choose 19ca3f0 to change.why cant offsets prior to these or later?and also value of offset 19ca3f0 is firmware dependent.
so while porting these patch for my k770,offset 19ca3f0 has different value rather than 00000000000000000000000000000000.
so at these stage what offset in k770 firmware should i choose to change. how would i come to know the calculation???. what is heap shift? is it related to these ????????
please AKSHAY,PETI OR OTHER PATCH EXPERT,help me.i m dying to port patches for vibra on connect.vkp and minimize bluetooth.vkp for k770.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!
Does the main fw file have to be the same as what is already on your phone? I’ve d/l R1KG001 and when I try to apply quick access patch I get:
Phone CID not supported in that mode
TIA,
Jim
@amit: try installing xp or try using VirtualBox with XP in it.
@Smiley989: mobilefree.ru, and also google can help you.
@MANnDAaR: I’ve never ported such a long patch. I guess the not-zero bytes have some links to the offsets of the zero bytes, but I don’t know.
The bluetooth thingy is possible by the way with BookManager elf.
I suppose I fixed the broken link, too. 😀
its still taking forever
nevermind 🙂
i dont understand when i go to certain sites to download patches and all i see is lines of codes? wat do you do with them?
My phone is w660 and the firmware is R6AD001 (CHINA), can i flash it using W660 SW-R8BB001 or other main firmware’s for w660?

Hello Akshay,
my phone is SE K800i. I want to add Mega Bass to my phone. Please provide me the simple way to achieve that.
Regards
Jins
hey look this
…………………………………………………………
Here it goes.. The MegaPatch v5
WARNING!!!
Before applying this patch make these folders in your MEMORY STICK!
other/drv/cam
other/drv/snd
And fill them with Acoustic and Cam drivers, otherwise your cam and sound wont work!
You have been WARNED!
………………………………………………..
is that mean that i also have to copy the Acoustic and Cam driver and paste manually in the folder that i made in MEMORY STICK..?
@Smiley989: those lines are supposed to be saved in a text file with “vkp” extension.
@dect: yes, you can, but if you use generic main (and not china), you lose chinese text input functionality.
@bhuvan: DO NOT USE THIS nigga slang thing, it’s lame and pitiful. Your new phone is probably CID 53, use JDFlasher to upload stuff.
@Jins: search for MegaBass on this site, you’ll get the tutorial.
@khairil: yes, copy some cam and acoustic drivers there, or else they won’t work.
thanks
wat do you use to save them as .vkp? ps i hope i’m not being a bother
Any ideas on my problem above?
MTIA
@smiley: I always use Notepad++.
@Jim: you can use different main and fs, but it is more reliable to use same version.
In which case any idea on why I get that error message?
Thank you very much! I finally managed to flash my k550, after a couple of mistakes and a couple of frights, but everything worked out just fine in the end.
I just can’t thank you enough!
Best regards from the middle of South America.
I patched with MP4 format video…since then its not working with Quick Time…error displays-
Error-2041 :An invalid sample discription was found in the movie
@jim: I guess it is the famous Config error, find tutorial for it on this site.
@sreeram: probably it just uses mp4 format as a so called container, and the video and audio streams are encoded differently. Some video players may still play it. Like KMPlayer, I think it could.
Thanks its working with km player…
m nt able to understand wht do u mean by this….
“Select Phone Model. Check use “quick access” patch.”
what does check use quick access patch means??? plzz help….
presently i am using R8BB001(europe) fs … i used xs++ to bypass the db2020 security … i am planning to flash it with R8BB001(asia) … what i want to know is should after flashing to R8BB001(asia) should i once again use quick access maker so as to bypass db2020 security ….. My second question – Does constant flashing affects the phone ????????
Hi Akshay thanks for your quick guide my phone is d2020 model is w880i it is not getting connected or unable to detect in setool kindly help how do i go ahead about it…..tried very hard but failed
@PD: http://img34.picoodle.com/img/img34/4/1/12/akshayy/f_patchingm_c66b94b.jpg Check this and hopefully you will understand.
@Neo: if you are flashing only FS, and not main, you don’t need to, because patches affect main only. Constant flashing – not really. The affected chips will surely get overused by time but it is like constant using affects the phone…
@kpit: have USB drivers installed? Is the phone working? Is the cable ok?
thanks … appreciate for ur quick reply … hmm one more query … is there any way to record from the radio ???????
No, I never heard of such a thing… It is easier to download from DC. 😀
m nt gettin d use quick access patch option…hw shud i gt it…??
Isn’t your phone DB2010 by any chance?
no buddy its DB2020…w580i…i applied the Vkp patch as in the tutorial successfully but dn also its nt showing dt option…
The quick-access thing is only for db2020 and will not be shown if the selected phone type is not set to a db2020 model.
If nothing works, use JDFlasher…
buddy mine is w580i db2020 model…stil its nt showing…i think all w580i’s r db2020 isnt it….nd i hav seen in xs3++ tht my fne is db2020…
i dunno how but it started showing tht by itself….i think my pc has gone wild…neways thnx 4 ur help buddy…

yeah it connects on JDflasher, what should i do?
Follow the JDFlasher patching guide. 😀
Oh yeah i didn’t see that, thanks for your help
off topic (sorry) but how do i go about the camdriver/acoustic/menu in ‘other’ folder thing?
i downloaded some menu packs and use xs to upload them to my phone everytime and its a hassle.It would be kind if you can give a brief tutorial.
k790i r6bc001
First you have to get patches for the phone to replace FS directories with those in “other” folder. Then upload the drivers you need to the folders specified in the patches. Then apply the patches. That’s all.
By the way, the forum is for offtopic things. 😉
any other places for patches like a keypad lock with passcode my friend has it on his k790 but i cant find one for mine =( w610 r6bcoo2
You can try topsony. Or google. Maybe it isn’t ported to W610.
I have a w580i, and it won’t boot up, it just shows a red light for several seconds on the right side. Some say that I should reflash it. I’ve never done this before, can I use this program to do it? Will I gain any additional features through this?
There is a tutorial for how to restore a phone when the red light is blinking dead on this site. If you follow that then ur phone shoud work
Hey, I need help urgently….
I tried to apply the patch on my K790i R1KG001 acc. to the tutorial.
Everything went correct, but my phone is not starting now.The phone is getting detected on XS++ & also on setool2lite…
What do i do now???
plz help as soon as possible.
You probably applied a bad patch. Reflash Main.
help needed badly………
I tried to reflash the main, but while the process was going on, the fone automatically got disconnected & the process got struck.
Now, my fone is not getting detected in XS++ OR setool2lite.
I dont know how it got disconnected, but the sound when we disconnect a USB device in ‘Win XP’ was played & XS++ stopped the flashing.
Plz tell me what to do, as I m really scared….:(
hey, I m sorry 2 say again,
but my fone got detected in XS++ 2day morning & I reflashed the MAIN+FS+CDA according to the video.
But still, my fone is not switching on.
What next 2 do???????
Probably it is the battery, charge it.
………..wow……….
My fone is alive again….
ThanQ Peti……
u ROCK……
It was the battery then? :O
actually, it was because of both the reasons.
I tried to charge the battery before reflashing the main, but it was not charging at all.
But after I reflashed the main, it satarted getting charged.
Anyways, thanks a lot Peti…

how to change sysgfx for w610i (R6BC002)
With patches. Search for SYSGFX on this site.
Hello, I was wondering if you can give a link to patches for this frimware of W610 R1KG001 thanks and regards!
sorry no one makes patches for that firmware.
Mmm thanks should I flash it with an other firmware?
yeah !
use this w610 R6BC002.
“some patches require that you place some files in M2 Card.”
how to know???
Thanks & congrats for Akshayy. This is one of the finest tutorial. I have followed the tutorial and applied patches on my k790i R1KG001. It works superbly.
Now I need a help. My k790i current firmware version is R1KG001,i am from India, i heard new firmware versions has come which has a feature of ‘minimizing the window while transfering files through bluetooth and do other stuffs in the phone’. Is it true? If so please tell me the right firmware version and how to upgrade my current version to this through ‘selite’ or ‘xs++’. If possible tutorial link.
Thanks
no such fimrware has come.
actually there are patches to do it.
find out from mobilefree if there is such a patch for your firmware.
But that thing is easier and better to do with elves. 😉 (use search function)
I patched my K550@W610 to run elf but after that many elf didn’t run many ran starting many restarted my phone i am hundred percent sure that i downloaded correct patch from peti site for same firmware what’s the prob
SASHI.
you will find all working stuff here
http://lic3d.pl/wp/
remove the old patches and apply new ones.
sorry there are no english tutorials to create patchs.
all of them are created by russians.
Hey tell me a english site where i can learn to develop patch and elves
You people are doing great job you shouldn’t be sorry

I have them for w610 r6 at seflashing.extra.hu.
My Phone is dead! Please help me.
Actually i Killed it!
I tried to aplly the quick access patch. I tried to do exactly as it was said in the tutorial. But i did two mistakes.
1.The firmaware file i downloaded had a .fbm (not .mbn) extension. I dint notice it. I downloaded it from topse.ru.
2.Next thing when i tried to create the vkp patch.It said cant find data. But i continued with the .vkp file that i found in the archieve above.
3.Next,i dint know whether the flashing was over or not. I was in the last stage where chencking contents and all come.There was no response for quiete some time and i thought its all over and remoed the phone.
And when i tried switching on. It wouldnt switch on. Now when i click identify in SELite Tool it says “only flashing allowed in this mode” or something. So i did the whole procedure once again with the same files. And completed the whole process. And then removed. But still my phone wont switch on!
Please help me out….please!!!

hi akshayy,
i have been trying to dowload different files of setool lite v1.1 from this site and other also, but one problem keeps occuring that, whenever i try to click and of the option ( i.e. identify, read flash, read GDFS) after slecting my phone model (or any other model ), simply my software goes spoof !!!
its gone, and not even any error is shown on my computer screen.
i have read this comment section, one thing i found out that might be my anit-virus must be creating problem, but even after disabling it, ths problem still persists(anti-virus : kaspersky v6.0).
i have tried with four different files of setool lite, but the same problem persists.
thanks in advance
whats the problem with the link’share2flash’?i cnt enter that site…ne1 can tell me why? 🙁
rushabh.. no idea.. its a problem with your computer.
fix your computer…..!!
none of use have faced such a problem till date.
sprk try seusers.com then..!!
share2flash might be down
@ akshayy,
thanxs for reply,
my problem is solved, it want anti-virus,
i did registry cleaning and spy-ware, & ad-ware cleaning, after this process, i am able to carry on with operating the setool lite…
hey
is there a way to remove all gfx patches from my w580i R8BA024. I found this really good pack but it says I don’t have enough room.
thx
There are graphic restoration patches, but it is easier to reflash main.
help~ i follow the steps above, and after i start my phone, it show “configuration error.Please contact your network operator or service centre.” so how??
You applied a patch that moves menu or layout to Other folder. Remove the patch OR upload those files in the folders the patch says in commented lines.
Hey now i flash my phone with W580_R8BE001_MAIN_TAIWAN_LA_RED52 and W580_R8BE001_FS_TAIWAN_RED52 already, with cust pack HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_105_R8A_GENERIC_TAIWAN, works fine. But when i apply the patches with setoolite, it does not work, why?
i check my patches content, all is ok. and i repatch(remove and apply it with setool) still not working(testing on radio withoutheadsets), so what is the problem? is the patch can be apply on all differen main file, include mine?(taiwan). becoz before tat i flash with hongkong.main and the patch works….i dunno whats the problem…
Hi, i tried patching the my w580i with setool2 … after i done the 1st step for applying the quick access patch, i realised that i have place the main mbn file in the “Firmware upgrade pack” location instead on the add “Files:” location. After that flash, the phone couldnt turn on.
Then i reFlash again by putting the mbn file in the “Files:” location then the phone able to turn on after that.
Then i try do use the quick access patch to write the no headset for radio patch. After everything done i on the phone but when i try to turn on the radio, it prompt me to insert headset …… ?? can someone help ??
i am using the W580_R8BA024_MAIN_CHINA_LA_RED52.mbn for the Main ….. so do i need to reFlash again since i have corrupted my ” Firmware upgrade pack ” earlier ….. and where can i find the upgrade or cust pack ??
Thanks
the main file i used was W580_R8BA024_MAIN_CHINA_LA_RED52.mbn … should i reFlash the firmware upgrade pack again as i have corrupted it earlier? If so, where can i find the cust_pack or the Firmware upgrade pack ??
Thanks
hey ryoku u can ge the custpack anywhere. Go to the download section of akshayy.com Akshay has suggested many sites where custom packs are available. Topse.ru is one of it. Look patches are firmware specific. If u have jumbled up anywhere in applying patches, then just reflash main and not fs or custpack. Now if u have flashed everything then its ok. And mainly apply patches via jdflasher. Its very fast. If u r an ametaur then just learn the easier way via setool2lite.
@zk: Does SeTool2 warn you about difference between patch and phone content? That means it won’t work. Use patches exactly for that fw. MAIN_GENERIC and TAIWAN are different.
@Ryoku: does the radio work with headset? That is the default for SE, radio only with headset. If it worked without it, it was because of a patch. 😉
Firstly thanks for your tutorial, but i have a problem….
I read the unlock w580 article before this and I have already updated the firmware throught SEUS………. because i cannot find the my old firmware name from any downlaod list……
am i no save now? how can i use setool again? and eventually unlock the w580i?
Thanks again AKshay, you’re just great
http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j209/hyperock/SEtool2Failed.jpg
I have added a prtscn of the SEtool2, hope it helps to figure out what’s the problem.
Thank you very much.
no you can’t
you have to wait for CID53 patching.
as of now only CID52 patching is free.
ok here is the story……well…i have a w300i db2010 cid 49 and yes i kno its cheap and outdated but sometimes old artifacts are more valuable then new technology lol…. ok but anyway i have a W300_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_JE_RED49.mbn…right…and i have matching patches for my main….bla bla bla…but whenever i try to install them i get …nothing ..but the flashing white screen of death wich i manage to revive by reflashing each time …i guess i am just a good doctor lol but anyway i need help with my patching
oh yeah preety pls with sugar on top …almost forgot my manners for a minute there….
the patch is bad.
simple.
wooooooooooow youre ammmmmaaaaazzziiiing !!!!!!!!!, lol no but seriously i tried many patches alweady from different sites like mobilesfree.ru and se-nse so if it is real because of bad patches can u give a site with good patches…..oh and also i accidentaly backed up my gdfs on setool 2 while i alweady had a backup on xs ++ so i stoped the reading and then they told me that is fatal and bla bla bla and then i reflashed my main but i am wondering if my gdfs are corupt now…(the ones that are on the pc) so can i delete my old gdfs and back it up again using xs ++ just to be safe ?
oh n oh yeah one last question i tried brekin in to my phone using jar manager with sefp plugin but every time i click on flash i get this :
error:
script flash mode execution error !
error:0
badtime.
One sec wait.
This is patching for db2020 phones. Read tutorial properly.
Sorry.
There is other tutorial for db2010 phones in this website. check that out 😉
ok, i am trying to save .vkp file using notespad because i can have a patch that I need for my K790a..here is there link for that patch..http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A//mobilefree.ru/&langpair=ru%7Cen&hl=en&ie=UTF8.. (#20), which will allow me to put password on folders..1st. I do no know if I should copy that is everything in that box or just the blue one, (2) when I try to save .vkp using notepad I get error message saying somethng like ” this file contains character in Unicode…” so than I select UNICODE from encoding option in Notepad than I try to attach the patch, it seems like the patch did not get apply because i cant do what that patch allow me to do..thx
Don’t use translator when saving patch, navigate there on your own.
Save the box’s full content, green stuff have ‘;’ as first char, so commented.
Ya, i think that was the problem because i had to trasnslate the page..it work now..thx
oh………can u give me the link to that tutorial cause i cant find it……

can this be done with w380i cid-53?
No, no patching on CID 53.
hey guys. if you have a w880 you need to hold 2 instead of c to enter flash mode. this took me so long to work out. hope it all works for those with w880’s.
I am gonna patch my K790. But i have a few doubts:
1. After applying the quick access patch, may i disconnect/turn my phone on before applying patches?
2. After applying the patches, if I want to apply another patch at a later date, will I need to apply quick access patch again?
3. I have downloaded generic firmware version. my current one is asia. may i flash it with the generic?
4. Will flashing the main change IMEI code?
@domini: don’t think so, but as you wish. 😀
@Nett: 1. no, 2. no, use qa2020 script, 3. K790_MAIN_ASIA? patches are made for generic ones. 4. nope, never.
ONE MORE DOUBT:
I have opened the k790 firmware using se image tool. it has a megabass picture in it. After patching with megabass patch, will i be able to see it in place of “bass” setting, which is currently on my phone?? or just the sound quality will be changed?
Not sound quality, MegaBass is an equalizer preset. The image won’t be shown, it’s foolish how SE works, my phone contains flash light and 3.2 megapixel GFX (w610…)…
yo akshay what agreat job,
man, could yout tell me how can i change my firmware to another firmware, the link to any tutorial is sufficient, i mean like i have w660 with R6DA… and i want to change it to R800… bla..blaa.. is it even possible or not, and ist just like flashing with XS++ or it a different story…
thanks man, you’re the man!!!
It’s just reflashing with XS++. You can flash any firmware for that phone (like W660 R1.. to R8, onlí W660 stuff, although v630 and k530 and a few others are also compatible, there’s no need to downgrade).
thx man, it’s worked
hey can anyone give me w610 R1KG001 sys vkp patch. or any link .Thanks
Do you even know what you want? ‘Cuz I sure don’t.
Hey Peti i mean battery pack , network icon change patch etc .i think u got it.Thanks
SYSGFX that is. Most of them are made for R8 and R6, never saw one for R1. Akapu has many of them, I think only for R8. We at se-lifestyle have some for R6. Use ImgTool to create your own patches.
I keep getting this error:

What am I doing wrong?
Have you applied the Quick-Access patch? I think not yet, then don’t try to use it yet, fist apply it.
Yes I did, I still dont know what the problem was but I’ve solved it somehow. 🙂
Thnx anyway!
Now I understand, I had to save the text documents with the utf-8 coding. Not the ANSI.
I wonder if JDFlasher could have used them…
Helo bro, i’m new in the flashing..can u give me the main firm ware of k800i SW-R1KG001..i can’t find the firmware till now..please.
We don’t have FWs. Try topse, seusers. Why R1KG? 😮
thanx 4 the reply..b’coz it is my firmware know, i need tha FWs in order for to to apply patches, actually, i’ve found the patches code for walkman 1 skin on the web, according to the tutor, i need the fws..so i which u could help me..i want to patch my music plyer skin..one more, is it possible to patch with walkman 2 skin? i just like crazy wishing i could do that..hopefully u can advice me..thanx..
R8BA024 and R8BF003 seem more common. You can patch the skin to look like anything.
does it mean i need to flash my original firmware to r8ba24? i afraid to do that..hehe..is there anyway to apply patches? for example using xs++ ? i tried once but it won’t works..
You’d better use R8BA or BF.
Only SeTool 2 Lite and FAR Manager (+JDFlasher).
thank u man..really appreaciate it..
When patching, do I have to remove the SIM card and M2 Micro card?
hello I have a w910i
It is stuck on orange network from france.
The only problem is that is has a lock code ( the default normally is 0000, like written on the site) that has been changed. Now my sister had been using the phone while I was on holiday and she did this. But now she doesn’t know it anymore ( 14 years old). I still have all the cables and adapter but the original papers are lost leaving me stuck with a f* up phone which I can’t use.
Is there any chance setool could help me fix this all?
I would also want to debrand is as well.
Many thanks I have already been to a lot of these sites but I must say yours is one of the best.
hey i cannot get sysgfx patch for w710i R1JC002 as a result i m unable to change walkman player skin n all…………….i even dun kno how to create these patches using the technique show in orkut se flashing comm……can u tell me:
a.how to create these patches
b.wat softwares n stuff to b used
c.is der ne site frm wer by ne chence can get sysgfx patch for this phone….pls helpppp akshay…
@AhmeT: Should, but I almost never do it.
@Eli: It is one of the best sites, yes. W910 is DB3150 phone, that means it can’t be flashed without pro tools at all. Isn’t that code the PIN code and you don’t know the PUK code? Then you can just change SIM card. Otherwise some service center could hack it…
@dhiren: There is a tutorial to create sysgfx, with ImgTool, search for sysgfx. You can also change FW version by flashing to other, if you find a good patch.
Is there any way to remove specific patch? (without reflashing main :D)
SeTool ask while applying, press yes to remove, no to apply. Read that dialog, not just click. -.-
OK. I thought on clicking yes in that dialogue mean that patch will be removed from some kind of setool’s “queue”, I didn’t know that it can remove the patch from phone.
i tried searching in many sites such as topse n all but didnt find the patch………n how to change fs???
pls can u tel me…..whic other sites might hav these patches n frm wer can i get imagetool???
@AhmeT: Now that I think about it, I did think that when I started. 😀
@dhiren: Use image replacing method, use ImgTool, as I said. Change FS… flash FS.
Check the Applications category here.
Do i need a cable connected to the PC in order to apply the patch or is it a code i can just input directly into the phone?
hey men..i get this patches like this

Hey does the SeToolLite confirm that c is pressed and the usb cable is connected because it is still saying that after i plug the phone into the pc? also how long does it take??
and my pc keeps finding new hardware when the phone is plugged in so is that interfering? my phone says preparing for transfer than do not remove the usb cable until you have exited the application on your pc. is that right???? cheers for any help
No worrys I found out what the problem was… I hadnt updated the drivers for usb flash. Great work on the website and cheers guys
hi guys..i am new to patching..
I have a w660 phone..
I have flashed my phone with a CHINA main and APAC fs..
but whenever i tried to patch,it does not work..
is it because that i am using a CHINA main?
thanks in advance~
-LonerzB0Y
Exactly. The patches are almost always for generic mains, not chinese ones.
so theres no way i can patch then?
As long as it has chinese main, you can use very few patches.
are there any patch that is for chinese main?
if there is,any links?
or are there any other main which can type or read chinese?
thanks~
With the generic ones you can only read, can’t write. I don’t know where they could be available.

Help. Had my K800 phone unlocked from a guy in a shop. All seemed fine then I seletc a new game called executor. Now my phone is dead. Have read that its a left over file from unlocking….anyway I can get my phone back to working order?
CID53 unlocking is from shops, after paying money.
…………………………………….
Graeme,
go back to shop for repair.
may be if you had details of the type of unlock we could have tried something
may be a reflash should help. try out jdflasher
man this CID53 is really creepy for me.
Akshay, I have a K770i R8AB001, currently locked to 3. I am trying to unlock this to all hopefully to accept my O2 card. I have followed the tutorial and have found the main and fs firmware, have downloaded and used SEtool lite, and tired to produce a quick access patch using qamaker. If I drag and drop the main onto qamaker.exe and all I seem to get is an error message about not being able to access this program. Therefore I cannot produce the patch. In a pervious reply you said about doing it in DOS, but I have no idea how to do this.
Please help. Thanks.
I have a K770i which I’m trying to unlock. I have downloaded the firmware, both MAIN and FS and have tried to drag the main into qamaker to product the quick access patch, but it is not working. I keep getting an error message and don’t seem to have the permissions to carry ou the operation.
Please help.
Fireware is R8AB001.
davejones
hmmmm strange.. just check the firmware. you should use main firmware to create the QA patch.
which OS ?? is it Vista ?? i don’t know if it works in vista…!!
persmission ?? never had that problem here.
Akshay.
Thanks for the response.
I’m running XP Corp, SP2.
The error message exactly says, “Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.”
The firmware I have downloaded is:
K770_R8AB001_MAIN_TMOBILE_VI_RED52.mbn
K770_R8AB001_FS_T_MOB_INT_A_RED52.fbn
I used this firmware to generate the unlocking patch from Simox Unlock generator and that worked without a problem.
Do I need to generate the QA patch in order to unlock this phone to accept other SIM cards or does it just speed up the process?
I’ll try and download the SEtools lite file again and see if that makes a difference. Other than that I’m lost.
Hope this info helps.
Regards.
My friend wants me to mod his k350i… but i cant seem to find any patches or firmware or anything for this… do you know were i can get some from?

QA patch is genereated using QAMAKER.exe
now just try this on some other computer. i don’t know what’s up with your computer.

i tried ti unlock my k800(it has k810 software)..when i try to connect my phone(while presing C) to setool(when i insert the usb cable)my computer recognize it like a memory stick and open the window with the files on it…i tried to take out the memory card but still i have the same problem..in xs++ 3.2 or when i did the GDEFS backup with setool i didn.t have this problem..i am a noob so i think i made a mistake but i don.t know were…
hellscream
you need to use sysgfx patch for that.
jonson
no idea what’s the prob.. may be some log can help.
dany
install USB Flash drivers properly in another computer and try. you screwd up the install here.
akshay thanks, but have no log all gone, is it possible that my phone is complete dead. hardware problem or is it possible to make a hard reset and start programming it like new.
Maybe trying reflashing everything would help.
peti thanks, but i can not log to my phone

Smiley989 basically all changes to FS, like icons , acoustics etc.
LikeSlider, Just follow this tutorial. In the process you will be flashing the main firmware into the phone any way.

Hi,
I have a k550i phone, i am not satisfied with the sound quality, i have heard that there is a sound driver which enhances the sound, can you please suggest how to do it?
Hello Akshay and Peti, im a dude from Malaysia and i just wanna tell you that im really happy and thankful to you for writing this awesome tut. Last year, i flashed my old Motorola E398 to ROKR. Today, I have successfully flashed my new K530i CID53 to W660 CID53 with JDFlasher ( it really rocks,thanks to you and Peti ) but i didnt backup my GDFS as im using JDFlasher.
Do i need to worry about not backing up my GDFS because i followed the flashing tut very carefully. When do i get to patch my CID53 as i only want some other flash menus other than the built in and can i flash it with JDFlasher? Okay one more thing is i do heard about those newly XS++ for Linux . I have linux but can those work to patch my phone? And what flash menu file do i have to use to patch it? Thank you Akshay and Peti for replies! 🙂 And one more thing, can you email me when the new XS++ that supports CID53 patching for windows come out at mals139 @ yahoo (dot) com. Remove those spaces. Thanks bro!
Hey mine is cid 53 red from the day i bought it.. What should i do?
can you change the font on and menu on the w760i?
After i pressed Read GDFS this is what i get below. Also is my phone a CID53? is there a way to flash it?i hace a k800i. thanks in advance

Hi akshay, cheers for the great tutes.
Unfort I ran the SEUS app on my k750i before I came across your site, now XS++ doesn’t want to play nice.
I have a backup of my GDFS before I ran SEUS, can I use that to get back to an older firmware and apply an unlock patch?
@acid
no way!
after updating whats your erom now?
you can check it through xs++ log!
well now u can patch anycid so nt big deal!
look in anycid patching guide
@bhuvan
thanks, after rebooting my pc XS++ is happy again now, not sure what caused that but it’s definitely still CID Red49 after using SEUS. I realised I was reading the wrong tute as my k750i is DB2010, following this one and was able to successfully patch a sim unlock. Thanks for the great site!
Friends i tried patching k810, and while doing i got an error message. and was not able to apply the quick access patch..
then when i tried to reconnect it using se tool it said,

Hi akshay,referring to the conversion of a quick access Main firmware, i have been tying to convert it with qamaker,but everytime i press enter nothing happen, so i have tried opening the mbn file with qamaker.exe. it created a file with a different icon, however the extension remain the same (MBN) it didnt change to VKP. I wanted to know if this process is correct and the file generated is usable
Thanks and great tutorial
Nilesh

Thanks for the reply Bhuvan,
The file generated is same as the original MBN file (29,454 KB),

Hi,
This is my dad’s phone and he doesn’t know what i’ve been up to so i need to get this fixed ASAP!!
I followed the instructions in this thread to debrand and unlock the W660. Everything seemed to go smoothly but when i turned the phone on after the procedure i get the following message:
‘Configuration Error. Please contact your network operator or service centre’
I’m from UK and the phone is R6BC002, CID52, DB2020. The phone was locked to the 3 network.
I have tried restoring GDFS but i still get the same problem.
I have also used XS++ 3.1 to reflash the main firmware that i found here:

But same problem. I think the problem may have been due to a wrong custompack applied but i am not sure about that.
Please help!!!
Thanks
Pablos
abhishek
if reflashing did not got it cured then it is hardware fault
give a try by formatting the mem card
Diogo
dude u have to switch off…take out the battery and connect it pressing the c key
Pablo
dude
just dont play with ur phone ike that
upload cda files
google one for ur region
like this
w660 cda [region] [firmware]
upload the files to
tpa\preset\custom
ur phone will work
bhuvan, im kinda noobish at this since i’ve never unlocked a cellphone (except Nokias where u get easily a keygen)..i’ve my SE k610i, with a sim insered, turned on..
what i’ve been doing is: i connect it, the PC suite recognises it. then i turn SEtool2 on, I press identify while im holding c, but it just dont identify the phone.
could u explain me what i got to do?
bhuvan,
thanks for replying so quickly 🙂
I am from the UK but i have tried looking for cda for R6BC002 but no luck. Could you help please?
Thanks
Pablo
Hi Bhuvan,
I have found this:
W660i_CDA102804_46_R14A_3_United_Kingdom
Would that one be OK?
Thanks
🙂
bhuvan,
i tried xs++ just to see if it would identify ma phone, lok what i’ve got:
12:32:36| Error: Cannot open phone communication port
12:32:38| Disconnected… Unplug the phone
what should i do?
Bhuvan,
Me again!! I flashed the phone with the custom pack i named in my last post but it has put all the 3 branding back on the phone which i was trying to get rid off. It’s good because i am back to square one with a branded, locked phone. I could not find any generic UK CDAs but i found these. Would you know if i should try any of them and if they would take the branding off the phone?

Ty DIogo

can u guys get it?
Diogo
dont be sooo noob!!!!
read carefully
u have to switch off ur phone remove and reinsert the battery and then move on!
Pablo
yea
that will work
Diogo
installed usb drivers?
try connecting back
problem in connection…try twisting the cable a bit
Pablo
how come?
if u have flashed to non branded[generic] firmware then its no more branded
look
flash ur phone to non branded fs and main
now upload cda pack..get any one of them
they are diffrent versions
all will work
Bhuvan,
Thanks for all your help 🙂
I have now debranded and unlocked the phone and have tested it with a different sim and it is working perfectly 🙂
When i first downloaded XS++ i put it on my pc desktop. I then copied it to c:\XS++ and put the custom packs in the correct folder within c:\XS++. What i was doing sometimes was clicking XS++ from the desktop but because the custom pack was not in a desktop subfolder, it was obviously not copying any custom files across to the phone. Once i realised what i was doing, uploading one of the generic Europe custom packs went OK.
Thanks again!!
Pablo
Pablo
enjoy then!!
😉
After doing all this my phone keep on blinking white screen ….
I have debranded the phone using XS++. But cannot unlock using it because the Execute Patch button is Grayed out.
& after using this Tutorial I cant unlock. screen just flashing. Tutorials with screen shot please..
Hey, i’m quite new to this and I can’t apply the patches using XS++, I load the patch by pressing the “…” button but the “Execute Patch” button remains disabled. The tool used in this tutorial never opens for me. It says I don’t have the right powers over my computer however I am the only user and administrator (the same thing happens on all the versions I download). I can’t use far manager to allpy the patches either because thats not working. Can someone please help me apply the patches. I’d prefer to use XS++ but any program would be fine. Any help is greatly apprieciated. Thanks.
If what you wanted to say is too long for a comment please email me instead ([email protected])
Also, i’d like to add to my cmment above that i’ve already flashed the phone and I am using a custom font. I also have all the USB drivers working properly. Once again, thanks and if what you wanted to say is too long for a comment please email me ([email protected])
Ben
for patches u have to use either setool or jdflasher
not xs++
Those tools don’t work for me. Believe me i’ve tried. Anyway, i’ll have a look through and try going through it again to see if theres anything I missed but i’m sre i’m doing everthing correctly.
Ben
u are definitely missing something
cuz they are only which support ur phone
if something goes wrong post us back!
Haha, just made a stupid mistake. My antivirus blocked Setool and I clicked “Ignore” but it continuted to block it. Anyway, I posted a topic at se-nse and got a reply within a few hours. Proves how active the Sony Ericsson communities are though, both here and at se-nse I get a quick reply.
Thanks for the help guys 🙂
Ben
thats great
so anything else?
Hi.i have a new problem akshay.my setool2 lite is now not work.windows say ‘
It was corrupt or crack’ .after i re install windows xp it work for few days.but now i have again that prob..what is ur advice for me .please akshay notifi me with email……..:-)
Lahiru
most probably its the problem with the apps u are installing in ur pc!
Hey, I have a bit of a question. I’m very noob at this and anyway, I think i have everything ready to go to unlock my z710i (read tutorials, watched, got the .vkp file, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get to the SEtool2 screen that looks like this : http://img31.picoodle.com/img/img31/4/1/12/akshayy/f_gdfssetoolm_9858223.png
I know there’s something I’m not getting, I just can’t figure out how to open that from BitZipper and the only thing I thought was possibly right (setool2lt.exe) won’t do anything (error message).
any advice for a newbie?
Rachel
use some other software
like win rar or winzip to unzip or tugzip also
are u able to extract it well?
yea
thats the main screen of setool.exe
Hey!

patch is corrupt
Hi Guy,
Excellent tutorial – many thanks. I was blocked to an obscure provider, and don’t even live in that country anymore which rendered my phone useless..! So massive thanks!
Just one thing – now when I press the messages shortcut button to the left of the phone (SE K550im) it starts trying to connect to the internet rather than opening the sms folder. Any idea where to look to try and sort that out?
Many thanks!
PS
I just noticed that now when I try and use the camera I get an error syaing that another application is running, and I must close it first. Though nothing is running… Any ideas?
Shep
go to settings
and set shortcuts there
Shep
reflashing fs will solve it

helpppppp
SUperJini
all right
dont ever update ur phone using seus keep in mind!
no matter what happens!
secondly
get simox patch generator from our filebase!
generate a .vkp patch
apply that!
thats it
bhuvan, thanks for your reply.
Under settings | shortcuts I can only change the shortcuts for the arrow keys (up down left right) not the two other keys on either side of the handset.
Which fs should I flash the phone with? The generic one I used to generate the unloack patch with?
What happens if I do the ‘phone update’ thing in the SE PC software? Would that (re)block my phone again?
Cheers,
Shep
Shep
yea using seus may do that!the main thing is it will upgrade it to cid53 which sucks!!!!
a big barrier in patching cid53 easily!
liek for unlocking a cid53 phone u need the operator’s sim to which the phone is locked!
in cid52 is do not!
fs…as we have experimented u can use any fs but i prefer the one which matches ur main’s version
u are asking regarding softkeys i guess
u are having a2 phone right?
firt tell me this
hey bhuvan,
Gotcha. Well, I still have the original SIM, so I guess that wouldn’t be a problem. Though the SIM isn’t active anymore (I’m no longer with that company).
I’m not sure if I have a2 or not – how do I check? It’s a “K550im” …
Shep
k550 is db2020!
and thats awesome u still have that sim!
this will surely help u out!
look in anycid patching guide.
learn that..u just need to apply single patch!
So my w580i R8BE001 RED CID 53 can use any patch now….thats mean i can modding my handset…..it’s it right……..
Shah
yeah
ur phone is fully modd able!
look in anycid patching guide

though, i h’ve succesfully QA patched my phone once using setool, i also h’ve Remove_SIM_lock_W580_R8BE001.vkp file but still problm persist,is there need to QA patched my phone bypassing DB2020 security evry time i apply .vkp patch? i h’ve a confusion.Bcoz without this i cant upload ELFpack.please help me!!
nig88
no qa needs to be applied for once!!!
if u reflash ur main then only qa needs to be applied back!
sometimes setool cant handle big vkp patches!
use jdflasher!
its powerful fast and easy!
as u said i used jdflasher to apply elf patch but it gives following error:
Set directory<setdir<setmode<doscript<run<gethello<IOusb:getblock>>>>>>
i cant understand how the hell can i apply elfs on my w580i,is there any solution?
nig88
there is soemthing wrong with ub connection or with patch…may be its corrupt!
thats what the error is depicting
where would i get the right patch?n i forgot to tell that the above error is followed by automatic display.
the above mentioned errror in jdflasher is caused when i enter bflash before applying patch
nig88
automatic display???
like i said check usb connection and get jdflasher from our filebase!
<setdir<setmode<doscript<run<gethello>>>>>
setdir-dir is set!
setmode-ur phone is successfully identified…
doscript-successfully executes thats y program is continuing
run-when process is continuing its also successful
gethello-now pc starts to get info from ur phone
IOusb:getblock=not able to read blocks!
mainly caused by bad usb connection!
if nothing helps then reflash!
may be firmware is corrupt!
get firmwares from topse.ru or topsony.com only!

Patching was as usual but from that time whenever i am trying to go to 3g mode my phone is just hanging and restarting continuously……..only flight mode is working…………..i removed the patch……… but still the same problem ………..i thought that other patches in my phone was meddling with this patch…….i did remove a few which might interfere…..but still the same problem………..i don’t want to reflash my phone………cd u please help ….probably make another patch of the original 3g system……..I definitely need 3g ……….please…………….it’s quite urgent………
and by the way u guys are just fab……………………….Great Job………
Tuhin
this patch must be incorrect or ported bad way! thats why ur firmware got cracked. ull have to reflash ur main, just main, no changes will come to phone. and request at our forum for the patch
😉
Sorry i couldn’t thank u earlier
Well Thanks Bro…………
but problem solved……….. i just removed each and every patch and now its all right…………
Now the new problem is that my phone has really become slow…….
i do have a lot of patches applied in my phone……….has this anything to do with my Startup being slow……..means just after the end of the startup screen…..its taking a hell lot of time for the desktop to load properly………….or the menu to open……..and my phone is restarting often………..in the media player…..i have walkman layout 3 applied……….Should i Flash it……….
…………Awaiting your valuable suggestion…………….
Tuhin
yeah reflash ur main!! no need of reflashing fs! main is damaged a bit by lot of patches! though u removed them but it is cracked! it happens usually!
just go ahead

Everything goes well up to security bypass process. in that process 1 and 2 goes well and in the 3 it says process 3 and Hold C and Insert USB Cable! and the process never completes. this happened two times now and what i have to go is re-start the machine again to start the whole process again applying Quick access patch. anyway, not its even not detecting the device after i hit “FLASH” button in SETool2. Please help in this.
