Hi! newhere.gif

I bought a z530i for a cople of weeks ago. I found out that it was like the w300i. W300i has a better screen and radio. Now i was thinking if it was possible to upgrade it to w300i. Is this possible?
If not, is there anyway to get walkman features into my z530i.

Im sorry if this is already answered. As I said im new!

Thank you so much!

What do you mean by 'upgrade it to W300i'? Do you mean changing the Z530's firmware? I'm not sure whether it is feasible or not (although I suspect not), but would there be much point in terms of the Walkman player? The Z530 doesn't really have enough memory to be used as a music player.

Thank you, nice forum!
I use my z530i as a musicplayer with hcp-60 and it works fine! I like the walkman player much more. More functions and the z530i´s is just the basic one in k750i

And the screen's resolution is also different i suppose

You know,
After the experience of identical K750/W800 and the resulting cross flashings, sales of W800 were dramatically dropped (And that's why SE replaced W800 with W810 and also introduced the junior W700).

SE has learned lessons from that and i don't think they will ever produce any other identical twins in the future.

It´s possible I do it on my sister z530 and now she has walkman(only problem is that z530 doesen´t have enough memory to be real mp3 player but you will get more functions)

well the hardware do have some differences as you can see from here so technically flashing the firmware onto the z530 is not possible, you'd probably end up with a dead fone.
