From here i am a bit scared in progressing.

There is one tutorial which states to flash the
MAIN firmware and then the Filesystem 1 at a time
But there is another which states to both of it
adding the .mbn and .fbn files and mark Customize Filesystem
and select my fone but there is no K810 in the list and the region too
has to be the same type as the filesystem

[Question] Do i flash Main first.. Disconnect/reinsert fone then Flash filesystem .. Disconnect/reinsert fone and and customize ? or Check(Tick) all the boxes do all at 1 go ? And how long will it take ?

[Question] Which firmware should i be using in flashing ? same as current or can i use anyone frm here ( http://www.seusers.com/forum/local_links.php?catid=308 )

[Question] i also read somewhere that for changing the icon, it will take a lot of time.. why is that ? 6hrs is too long for me as in my region there is a problem with electricity and getting continuous electricity is impossible.. i dont wan to be in the middle of the process when the lights go out..

My w900 takes about 15 mins to flash.

you can flash Main and FS together you don't need to restart XS

Make sure you take your sim out when you flash, if you don't it will break the sim.

WizaJ
Flash both MAIN & FS at the same time, MBN is MAIN FBS is FS. Aren't the K810 custpacks there? If not use the K800 one.
Nothing has to be the same as the old one, and don't use XS++ 3.2, use 3.1 because XS++ 3.2 is still in Dev and could brick your phone quite easily.
As for changing the icons, if you use sysgfx it takes seconds, even GFX replacement patches are instantly activated after patching.

Btw Sam, it's nice to see you posting here smile.gif

To Wiza: Well if i flash a K800 custopack then wont i lose some of the features frm the k810 and then what firmware am i suppose to download for the MBN is MAIN FBS is FS ? the same as mine or newer? i think it is best if u could give me a direct link to the right firmware frm lookin at my XS3.2 logs..

ALSO should i rebackup my GDFS again using XS3.1 cause i did previously on 3.2 ..


So heres what i am gonna do after i get the right firmware.

Flash the " MBN is MAIN FBS is FS " both together .. and then do i have to unplug/replug(do the press C thing) fone again to do the custopack ...?


LASTLY.. does sysgfx program support icon changing via the .ml extension ? i saw some mod packs which have a lot of .png file in it and 1 .ml file.. and i wanna use that..

I'm not WizaJ but I'll answer anyway! No installing the K800 Custom Pack will not remove any of your features!

Yes make a new backup of GDFS with 3.1.

DOn't know about sysgfx, sorry.
existonz09
and yes.. which firmware should i be downloadin ? pls give me the exact name.. thankyou..
darthvaderrulesyourmind
A mbn (Main) and fbn (Filesystem) that match.
existonz09
So here is what i have for flashing...

MAIN and FS files
1. K810_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_SM_RED52
2. K810_R8BA024_FS_EUROPE_2_RED52

Customization file:
3. K810-HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_11_R8A_GENERIC_EUROPE_2


Pls correct me on my process.. Thank You
** I will do a backup of my phone(phone books etc) and remove my m2 card before flashing**

So i will have to FLASH the Main and Fs at the same time right ? After completing that, i continue
to FLASHING the custpack (customization file) right ? of course i will have to do the disconnect/reconnect press c thing
in between

To install the Custpack i will have to create a cust_pack folder inside the XS++3.1 folder right ? and extract it there.. ?

And up till this process, its gonna take me less than half an hour right ? cause i cant wait for long process..
Once finished i presume i will have a new unbranded/unlocked/higher version of my fone rite ? Once again CID52

My main goal in flashing my fone was so that i could change the menu icons.. So after flashing i can continue to changing the menu icons ?

Examples: http://michlantecuhtli.deviantart.com/art/...-G705-104123595

Anyone can guide me on the SYSGFX usage to change the menu icons ? all other tutorials i see is a bit incomplete..
Cause without this, its gonna take me hours on XS++3.1 as mentioned by some peeps..

if someone can talk to me on MSN messenger about this pls add me..it will greatly speed up my learning process
existonz09@hotmail.com

if not the PLEASE PLEASE REPLY to this topic !!!.. THANKS A GAZILLION...
darthvaderrulesyourmind
Yes your files are fine. I don't do sysgfx so don't ask me. Yes you should be done in about 20-30 minutes at most!
number1
Theres a few ways to change menu icons, use sysgfx, or proper gfx patch or edit the menu.ml and upload the icons to the menu folder in the phone.
existonz09
woo hoo.. i finally FLASHED it..

using:

MAIN and FS files
1. K810_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_SM_RED52
2. K810_R8BA024_FS_EUROPE_2_RED52

Customization file:
3. K810-HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_11_R8A_GENERIC_EUROPE_2


It took me about 10mins..

NOW To the COOL and sexy part in learning how to use SYSGFX..
one thing i wanna know.. i wanna change the menus icons constantly but do i have to repeat the FLASHING process over again or just the SYSGFX process ? the flashing part is a 1 time deal rite ?
and i found out SYSGFX can only be done by SE tool lite not XS++ .. so i have to get SE tool lite right ..

Hey Number1 .. i have added u in msn messenger .. need to ask u to teach me the quickest and fastest way to change my menu icons.. TKS !!! hope u dont mind.. pls
existonz09
ok in short.. i have attached a preview of a menu pack i downloaed.. and i wanna use that..

In the K770i_BlackStyleDot.zip file is a bunch of png images and 1 menu.ml file ...

what do i do wid these ? the fastest/easy way .. pls.. something that will take at MOST 2hours..
preferred program XS++3.1 .. but maybe SE Tool 2Lite 1.11 (heard something about quick access patch)
