Flash k530 to w660

Yes you heard it right ! k530 can be easialy flashed to w660 !

A k530 flashed to w660 works like great ! with absolutely no bugs !
You will get Walkman player 2 with Megabass and flash menu support !

To flash k530 to w660 you need a W660 Main and a W660 FS and a W660 Cust pack !

You can download w660 Main and FS for w660i from here !
And here is a Customization Pack for Cent Europe FS from here !

Note !! There are many FS available. You must use the FS which has your langauge
The FS that i have provided has the following languages

CENT_EUROPE >> English Hungarian Czech Polish Slovakian

Few more FS are available at Topse Russia ! You can download from here ! Also download Custom Pack from there !

If you don’t Find FS of your choice for W660 You can always get it from TopSony ! But you might have to pay for it ! But a small price though for walkman player 2 !

Instructions !! Follow this tutorial !! The only difference is you must use W660 Firmwares and Files instead of w610 firmwares !! The method to use XS++ is same for all phones !!

Download XS++ from the websites download section !!

Then ofcourse you can follow my other guides such as Customizing of phone , Far Manger, Patching etc.

All the best !
Regards Akshay !!

    well done

  2. isuru says

    i tried to open the file for w660 main.. it doesnt open.. and en error ocuurs.
    please explain.. wat should i do nxt?

  3. Akshay says

    i did not get you
    why should you open w660 main
    and download correct w660 main firmware from topse or see for more links at my download page
    http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/download/

  4. dravidan says

    w660 main and fs link is broken
    please fix that link

  5. Peti says

    Yeah, right, I fixed it. Thanx for the info. 😉

  6. Rudhra says

    Are Walkman 2 and flashmenu the only benefits? I dont use my phone as musicplayer and I like the spiral theme.. but perhaps I am a bit ignorant about flash menus..

  7. Peti says

    I don’t know the benefits, but I’m sure that walkman, new flash menus, new acoustics are flashed with it. You can also use patches.

  8. Irfan says

    can i flash k800i to w880i firmware? What changes should be there?

  9. Peti says

    You can flash it but: no camera, keyboard and joy totally mixed, cant operate phone using keys, only with MyPhoneExplorer as vitrual keyboard; Walkman and flash lite works fine. So not worth trying.

  10. Broken English says

    Thanks for the great tutor, I’ve been reading quite a lot from yours and now ready to do the crossflashing myself. My phone is K530 >> W660.

    The files I collected:
    1. Main: W660_R8BB001_MAIN_GENERIC_FY_RED52.rar
    2. FS:
    W660_R8BB001_FS_APAC_RED52.fbn.RAR
    3. Custom file:
    HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_101_R8A_GENERIC_APAC.zip

    One thing I want to ask to Akshayy, is the 3 files above the correct one that I must use? I heard many people used the wrong Custom files and end up with a brick 😛 I dont want that to happen to me. Please help, thanks in advance.

  11. Akshay says

    custom file don’t brick the phone
    LOL
    if something wrong in custom file then phone will say config erro blah blah
    then just install new custom file. SIMPLE !!!
    choose FS that has langaue that you want
    i assume you SEND SMS in ENGLISH then you can use any damn FS
    all FS have english support

  12. Broken English says

    Alright then Guru, I’ll proceed and report to you later 😀 Thanks a heap!

  13. Broken English says

    In Customization File System, you need to select Phone Model from the drop down list.

    What I want to do in my case is K530>>W660, but I didnt find W660 from that list. So what Phone Model to choose?

  14. Akshay says

    no .. select own_custpack.
    read tutorial properly i mean the flash debrand thing
    its a video . .check out out
    i select own_custpack
    also cda is put in own_custpack folder

  15. Nc Rocker says

    Hey, does K530 still carries Track Id & 3G settings after converted into W660 ?
    Plz somebody let me know….and does it have MegaBass.

  16. Akshay says

    yes it sure does… you get everything. noting to lose

  17. Hamachi says

    I replaced my old K610i with a new K530 which I used your tutorial to debrand and reflash the firmware etc. Works perfectly thanks! Question I have. There’s a festure in my old 610i that’s not in the K530 which is when the phone display goes to sleep there’s a clock and indicator for SMS etc. in the background. K530 just doesn’t do this.

    1) Can I flash my K530 with the K610 firmware?

    2) OR is there a way to get that funcationality into my K530 firmware?

  18. Akshay says

    no you can’t do that.
    i don’t know what functionality you are talking about.

  19. Hamachi says

    I’m referring to when the phone is idle for a while, it dims the screen, and goes into “idle” mode. In K530, the screen is just dark (nothing displayed). In K610i, the screen is dark, but you can see a “shadow” with the background showing the clock, and an icon for SMS if you have a msg waiting.

  20. Peti says

    You can see this “idle” screen on newer phones when you press the keys on the side on the phone, volume/zoom keys.

  21. Neo says

    i have convereted 530i to w660 … it is working fine … except keypad light goes off while playing walkman ???

  22. Akshay says

    Use some other firmwares and fix that problem

  23. manuela1986 says

    Is there any way fixing the problem that phone crashes if the brightness is over 60% and you open the walkman?

  24. Peti says

    I’d first try reflashing main and fs.

  25. mike says

    hey there there patches to sort out the problems
    just see this guide

    http://www.myforum.lasyk.net/showthread.php?t=38528&highlight=v630+to

  26. abhir says

    hey,
    i wanted a walkman ph but bought k530 n saved 1.5k 😀
    got the idea from k750@w800 (which i lost)
    but thnx for putting up all the reqd info / files.
    Thnx !

  27. Peti says

    It doesn’t work on all phones. 😉

  28. sanjay says

    Can i flash my k790i to w850 or some other phone????

  29. Akshay says

    no it won’t work.

  30. pralad says

    can u do a k610i to w660

  31. Peti says

    In fact, K790 can’t be crossflashed to anything.

  32. Peti says

    @pralad: yes, you can crossflash a K610 to a W660.

  33. pralad says

    but how comes when i turn my k610i(flashed2 w660) the colours on the screen are inverted do u no how to fix this

  34. Peti says

    I would first try to flash a different W660 firmware on.

  35. gan says

    guy i flashed the K530 main and W660 fs and i got the walkman player in k530
    still my phone name is K530

  36. Akshay says

    you should flash FS and CDA also for full compatibility.

  37. aladin says

    its corrupted..try search at 4shared

  38. duan says

    can k810 flashing to k850?

  39. Peti says

    Not possible, different architecture (DB2020 vs. DB3150).

  40. ridhwan says

    Aug 15 at 12:01

    hello….PLEASE HELP ME!!!!! im new around here…so
    i hv many question….

    1)i hv k530i..i wnt flash it to w660…so should i unlock it first or just do the flashing with the w660 FS main n (other things tht we need to use with it)…..what is the purpose of unlocking actually….?

    2)how should i know my phone CID version..is there any button 2 check in the phone itself….

    3)If i flash it to w660 can i flash it back 2 my original series which is k530i……..

    Help me….i’m really afraid that i will mess up…i have read all the comment in this website..n find any problem that i should aware of…but i need a really conclude guide to do the flashing…PLEASE ANSWER…..!!!!!!!!

  41. Peti says

    1. Not necessary. To use the phone with any SIM card.
    2. Connect to XS++ and see the EROM CID line. Phone can’t show it.
    3. You can, but it will be debranded.

  42. ridhwan says

    for the answer of 3rd question…what the meaning of debranded ?…..it’s my handphone lost the warranty……or the shop guy can detect that i hv flash the hp even though i change the firmware back to original before i take to them…

    if u don’t understand what i just wrote above…just tell me what is debranded can cause me problem….?(my english is not so good)

    n final question….what is ur advise if my phone still hv warranty..should i wait until the warranty finish….(2 years warranty)just give ur best opinion…ok…thx?

  43. Peti says

    Debranded means it has no operator’s stuff, their startup image, sounds, themes removed.
    You need the original branded firmware to get warranty back, but they are too hard to find.
    I flashed and lost warranty after 2 months.

  44. ridhwan says

    1. if i backup my GDFS can i flash it back to original with all the logos n operator’s stuff in it……
    2. Did u find any original firmware for this k530i
    3. How do i know IF i find the original firmware

  45. Peti says

    1. GDFS is not for that, you can’t.
    2. Never looked. Never wanted them.
    3. Same phone, same operator, same CID, same version. That’s it.

  46. Viper says

    People converted there k550i to w610i to get walkman v 2.0 player, megabass and flash themes.
    I am the first man who want to convert his w610 to k550.
    The main reason is to get the cybershot options of the k550 which i love.
    I dont care for the walkman v 2.0, megabass or flash themes.
    Please tell me is it possible to do that and if than how.
    Thanks in advance.

  47. Peti says

    I never experienced K550 camera app was better than W610… So what you’re doing is foolish, but of course it’s your choice. See the K550 -> W610 tutorial, there is something about reverting to K550 there, do it.

  48. julio says

    wow!!!!!!! viper dont do dat thw w610i and k550i cams r exactly d same!!!
    if u want cyber-shot in the menu den edit the menu.ml i did that i also put track id in entertainment n move radio to menu…..cause most of the flash menus have radio not track id!!!
    so dont doo it man it is dumb!!!!

  49. Viper says

    Thanks Peti and julio.
    I have not converted my phone but instead sold it and bought the new k770 cybershot which is better than both w610 and k550.
    Thanks again.

  50. IRENES says

  57. Saravanan says

    Thanks,
    Saro

  58. t002tyrant says

    @azn:

    I guess W660_R8BB001_MAIN_CHINA_FY_RED53 should be available at ****://s e b b s .it168.com/thread-1273298-1-1.html

    It seems like you have to achieve a certain level in order to download the file. I just guess, since the page is written in chinese :p I just understand part of it

  59. Akshay says

    fragile.. don’t know i have not tested that.
    no CID53 wait for XS++ 4.1

Den i flashed da main with w660 (GENERIC) firmware & added the files that wer nt in the k530 fs bt ws there in w660 fs in2 the 4n with fsx. Nw the 4n works fyn & has megabass, walkman player etc. bt the backlight goes off wen the walkman is opened.

Is there any way 2 fix it? & i want 2 store txt msgs in da normal 4n memory instead of da reserved txt msg memory so that da capacity wil b much mor dan 1000 msgs, hw can i modify the storage location? I found instructions 2 change dat on a k790 (which i think is db2020 too?) which sed dat da pref_store.txt file shud b modified by changin the path of storage frm ‘smsdata/’ to ‘tpa/’ & to create a new directory structure in tpa/ in da same way as smsdata/. I created it, & tried editin the pref_store.txt file, bt it ws 0 bytes, so it ws an empty file. 🙁 Didnt work, so im stil stuck wit 1000 msgs. Pls can u help me 2 make it mor dan dat? & als is there any possibility that the k530@w660 can support a 4GB M2 card?

  97. Danijel says

    If I will ever want to return to K530, can I use T_MOB_INT_B R6BC002 FS with R8BB001 Main?
    And one problem:
    when I’m listening to the radio, if I press Walkman button (previously Internet), the phone restarts!
    I tried reflashing…
    AND I WANT TO WARN YOU:
    EVEN IF YOU REMOVE DOUBLE TEXT (LINES) IN PATCHES FROM topse.ru (USING GOOGLE TRANSLATOR) YOU’LL HAVE TO BE CAREFUL, BECAUSE GOOGLE ADDS SPACES IN PATCH WHERE THEY SHOULDN’T BE – INSTEAD OF eg.
    1A2345: 1A 2B THERE WILL BE: 1A 2 B – SEE THAT SPACE IN LINE? THAT’S THE CAUSE OF PHONE’S CRASHES!

  98. bhuvan says

    @Danijel
    it should not restart!
    hearing dis first time!
    better reflash it using any other fs and main!
    and using t mobile one…will be no more unbranded!
    well..the combination is fine!

  99. Danijel says

    Ok, I downloaded the FS from 4shared, but there’s a problem – FS isn’t in FBN format, it has got the FS extension! Why? Can I flash it anyway if I’ll ever return to K530?

  100. bhuvan says

    @Danijel

  137. Richie says

    I tried using xs++ with main & fs & custom but it failed, from reading all the comments I Figured that I my phhone has cid 53, Jdflasher has to be used right. but what steps do you take to use JDflasher instead? Thanks
    This page really boosted my IQ.

  138. Goblin says

    For cid: 53 I found the FS on 4shared Can I get the custpack and main for cid: 53 somewhere else you do they have to match

  139. bhuvan says

    vinod
    get from our filebase…
    db2020 ones [zapf]

  140. bhuvan says

    Richie
    ohk…yea jdflasher is way out
    look at jdflasher[flashing]guide..
    its simple…fast…..

  141. bhuvan says

    Goblin
    which firmware u want?
    custpack is just phone dependent..not firmware…so u can straight formward upload old custpack files

  142. Richie says

    I read though how to use Far Manager with jdFlasher & I understand it, So I went to SE-lifestyle! & followed the instuctions But I had to Flash/copy Bfiles into it(executor.b + executor.jar + customize_upgrade.xml) into tpa/preset/custom/

    , the instructions say customize_update.xml it might just be a typing error. but anyway afterwards I had to switch the fone on & open menu/entertainment/games and then executor but I can’t seem to find anything. Help pls

  143. bhuvan says

    richie
    strange!
    u copied all the firmware matching files…sure?
    when u start ur phone…then some please wait thing comes for few seconds?

  144. Richie says

    Thanks guys For the help,got past that, the executor finally did wht it was suppose to. Bt now I get a error when connecting with qa2020,I thnk my Far+Jdflasher might b out of date. Can u plz give me a website where I can download the latests Jdflasher? Thanks

  145. bhuvan says

    Richie
    what error are u facing..
    get the latest from our filebase uploaded by akshay

  146. Lahiru says

    Please give us little tutorial about create shortcut form FS to phone memory or stick .for easily moding phone..!!!

  147. bhuvan says

    Lahiru
    what?
    m not getting u

  148. Richie says

    Okay let me just explain it all over again, I’ve followed the steps but I think I might have gone wrong somewhere along the line, mind helping me out? I hav a k530i [CID 53] and proceeded on cross flashing it with w660 firmware, I did everything up till the point where you press the “executor” situated in the “games” folder and the screen then turns dark(like it should), then I opened JDflasher selected qa2020 instead of db2020(as advised) and then jumped into the rabbit hole, but it gave me an error,”OpenPlugin<connecttophone<getcid>”, so I couldn’t continue and flash the rest of the files in bflash. I reflashed it and started all over again, in hopes that I’ll find out where I went wrong, after failing three times in a row, I decided to just do part 1 so that I can at least have a usable fone. Walkman 2.0 and flash themes work perfectly,(in addition I also edited my menu.ml file,works great) but whats the purpose of QAP? Is it for patching & elves? Or can I do without it & still use patches as well as elves? If so, how do I use patches and elves without QAP?

  149. bhuvan says

    Richie
    thanx for posting whole stuff together…makes things easy for us!
    well..qa is for breaking main so that u can apply patches and yea…elves too!
    have u updated ur qa script?
    no then…instead getting into trouble download latest jdflasher uploaded by akshay in filebase..it has all updates and fixes

    Hey, I flashed my k530 to w660, with “W660_R6AD001_MAIN_GENERIC_FY_RED52.mbn” and “W660_R6AD001_FS_MEDITERR_RED52.fbn”.
    Because on startup i got message “Invalid sim card”, i patched it, and i thought it will work fine, but….
    It doesn’t, now when i start it up, i receive message “Configuration error, contact your……”, do you think it’s because i didn’t added custom pack?
    I didn’t found any for that region…

  211. Pratik says
