I have a sony ericsson w580i I have been trying to use setool2lt to flash my sony ericsson. I will load

Phone Type I have selected w580

files i have added
W580_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_LA_RED52.mbn
W580_R8BA024_FS_C_ASIA_RED52.fbn

Under MISC I have added
W580_CDA102568_7_R8A_GENERIC_C_ASIA.zip

I have removed my sim card in my phone. When I hold down the C button and then plug in the USB cable I get:

Phone function unavailable during USB connection.

I then press Flash on the setool2lt. I have waited up to two hours I finally hit stop. My phone never seems to be touched at all.

I have installed the usb drivers, but still does not work.

Can someone please tell me why this is not working. I have even upgraded to setool2lt v 1.11 and checked

bypass db security 2020db
and use quick access patch. but still nothing is working.

Please advise.

Are you still holding the C button as you plug in the USB able into your fastport?

You cant have the flash drivers installed if its going into transfer mode

Either that or like Lynott said: you are not holding 'c'

However, if 'c' dont work, try using 2 and 5

Yes iv tried that.
im getting:

ChipID:9900,EMP protocol:0301
PHONE IS RED RETAIL PRODUCT
FLASH CID detected:53
Speed:921600
Trying to launch embedded bootloader...
embedded bootloader not responds!

You're CID53. That is why.

Thus, you got to use JDFlasher + FAR

What does this mean? Can you send me a link that will explain this a bit more?

Thanks,

As reading thought these forums CID53 is the new CID that cannot be hacked / flashed yet with setools or XS++


USe the program as said above

[Ly]

Correct. And you need 53 firmware, not 52.

(Those firmwares that end with "RED53")

Mirko750's esnips has some of 'em. Look around.

Good luck!

Ok I guess I am lost.

I have downloaded everything mentioned in this tutorial: http://akapu.wordpre...with-jdflasher/

Then on step 8: 08. As soon connect your phone and double click on “bflash”, I have oflash not bflash
I double click on oflash and I get a far windows empty on the left and my main far directory on the right. I click on my main and tell it to flash as babe image and it errors out. I am still stuck, but my phone is still working fine. It seems to not have flashed it at all.

If this tutorial is incorrect can you please send me a better one? Most of the download links were broken so I had to find the apps online at random places that they did not install they were self extracting.

Thanks,

Use XS++ v3.1 to flash your phone, only the .mbn and .fbn.

Use XS++'s FSX to upload your custpack manually.

Only then do you use JDFLASHER or SETOOL2LITE to put your patches & the quick access patch in. XS++ 3.1 cannot patch your phone yet.

Well, that's what I always do, and it works. =X

Have you forgotten already that he is CID53?!

How do I know what patches I need? and would W580_CDA102568_7_R8A_GENERIC_C_ASIA.zip be my custom pack? Can you point me in the direction for the correct patches also?

Thanks,

Lynott,

What would you recommend? Any help would be great.

Thanks,

[Ly]

What you need to do is download JDFlasher with CID53 support and Far Manager, then you can flash it.

Search around

@Lynott

=X Yes I forgot...

@kerneldead

Don't follow what I did; your phone is CID53 and those instructions are for CID52 and below.

Unfortunately, since your phone is CID53, you cannot patch anything at the moment.
