HowTo customize your w810 without bruteforcing
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for your actions. Use at own risk. This cán damage your phone.
So this only works for unbranded w810i. If you do it right, your settings/contacts, pictures won't get lost.
Remember, don't flash your filesystem (FS or .fbn), as it will overwrite your whole file system. Only do this, if you want to unbrand your phone too (get rid of tmobile crap, enabling flash). See below for instructions on how to unbrand.
Premeasures:
- install USB Flash drivers (by installing SEUS for example)
- install FAR-manager 1.70 here
- extract the SEFP plugin (first SEFP v01004, then SEFP v010051 over it) to the plugin folder (C:Program FilesFarPlugins normally)
- Extract den_po's CID49 pack db2010cid49_4_alpha.rar.zip to FARplugins
- Get XS++ and a MAIN firmware, download here:
XS++ v1.2
W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49 or mirror
- Remove your SIM-card and memorystick, just in case..
Flash break-in loader:
- Open XS++, connect, ONLY flash your MAIN with w810_p3k_dcu.49R.ssw (located in CID49 package).
This is a break loader. So it's not a real firmware, but only intended to access the filesystem without bruteforce (using den_po's CID49 pack for the SEFP plugin for FAR-manager). It's only 5 flash blocks, should not take more than 30secs. Just choose STOP if it hangs on 100%.
- Remove your battery for 5secs and after that put it back in.
Customizing with FAR+SEFP:
- Open FARmanager, and press F11
- Choose SEFP plugin
- If you get the error: "Unknown exception", Exception address: 0x7C812A5B...... The plugin will be Unloaded!
This is a bug. It's because you don't have any COM-ports, so create a fake COM-port connection. I did it with my BT Dongle.
- if you get the error: " can be used with Service Cable ONLY".... browse to the SEFP folder and patch sefp.dll with sefp0.10.0.51patch.exe.
- Opening SEFP:
choose Bootscript: w300_w810_z550_cid49 and press Enter The Matrix.
After a while you'll be in the w810i, if not, try again, check settings above.
- Choose /FS/, now you'll can customize everything you want; camdriver/ audiodriver/ etc.
See below for some tips, or check out Links
- When done, Go back to root (choose '..' all the time) until FAR asks to exit CSFS loader, choose yes.
- Exit FAR-manager
- Disconnect cable and remove your battery for 5secs.
Flash real MAIN:
- Now go back to XS++ and connect your w810i.
- Now only flash your real MAIN file (i.e. W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49.mbn, 344 flash blocks).
Don't check Customize File System! This will only take about 2 minutes.
If all went right, you're done, you have customized your w810i WITHOUT bruteforce!

extra: Unbranding your phone (getting rid of tmobile crap, enabling flash menu's etc)
- Backup your files (contacts, settings, sms)
- Download a FS (.fbn) file too from topsony (pay). Choose your own region, of course.
- Also download a custompack for your own region. This must be compatible with your FS region.
You can find them in the Custompack Library topic or from topsony.
- Follow the tutorial above.
- At step 7 in XS++, also choose to flash your FS with the FS file (.fbn). Again, don't check Customize File System!
- When you've entered your phone with FAR at step 13, browse to /tpa/preset/custom and copy all contents of your custompack in here, including subfolders.
- Proceed with the tutorial above. Remember, do not flash your FS again, you'll lose the customization.

again, here a list of things you can customize:
installing a custompack:* Only do THIS if you get the configuration error!*
/tpa/preset/custom
Get them from topic: Custpack Library or topsony .
Use with caution, double-double-check your CDA-string & region!! (must be compatible with your FS & MAIN).
Custompacks contain files that finalize your fresh filesystem (FS). Customize.xml is editable with notepad.
To determine which pack you use, just google...
replace camdriver:
/ifs/settings/camera/camdriver0.dat
Most people like ZUZA or SUPERCAM camdrivers the best. more info:
http://www.topsony.com/foro/local_links.php?catid=114
http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=5863
replace audio drivers:
ifs/settings/acoustic/*.*
You can use driverpacks like qwerty12 or mongouse loudv2, check here:
http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=5863
add extra flash menus: (.swf files)
/tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash
download them here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/b1beya
change your mediaplayer: *note: this sometimes causes errors like disabled flash menus/thumbnails etc *
/tpa/system/multimedia/mp
Put certain gif images in this folder, get them from topsony
more info: topic: Pimp your Mediaplayer
replace some system sounds:
/tpa/preset/system/sound
i.e. camerafocus.3gp, camerashutter.3gp
remove locked java files:
/tpa/preset/system/ams
/tpa/preset/default/java
change bootup/shutdown sounds/picture:
/fs/tpa/preset/system/settings
SPLASH - bootup picture: copy to your PC, edit PNG with paint/photoshop. And then, copy back
STARTUP_SOUND_SEMC.mp3 - duhh
remove locked music/pictures:
/tpa/user/audio
/tpa/user/audio/Ringtones
/tpa/user/image

oh yes, if you screwed up something, or want some original file back:
- download the FS you want from topsony, i.e. W810_R4ED001_FS_EUROPE_3_RED49.fbn
- download MAIN2RAW and SEFSTOOL4 from topic:K790/800 Filesystem Parser
- extract them in some temp folder, i.e. C:\\w810i\\
- rename (if you like) the fbn file for easy-typing purposes only, i.e. W810i.fbn
- go to MSDOS (type cmd) and go to temp folder (type cd\\w810i)
- type 'main2raw ', i.e 'main2raw W810i.fbn'
- press enter to quit main2raw. It now created a file W810i.RAW.
- type 'sefstool4 ', i.e 'sefstool4 W810i.RAW'
- sefstool now created a folder with all standard GENERIC files. Browse them to find your original file.
more info at topic K790/800 Filesystem Parser.

Well I just broke my w300i phone
I was following directions here but missed a big step
When I ran XS++ I should of "ONLY flash your MAIN with w810_p3k_dcu.49R.ssw" I was in the wrong folder and ended up flashing it with "W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49.mbn". Now my phone wont turn on - I still can connect to it with XS++, is thier a way to fix it? |

your phone is w300 not w810. try flash main with w300 main firmware and it should work |

@tomhaiger: this method is obsolete. there is a new version of XS++, the new V3.x serie.

You can patch your K810i using SETool2lt after applying quickaccess patch first...
