I must ask why you want to flash to k810? Imo it's not worth it just to gain Photofix and TrackID. Plus, there are more patches for k800 R8BF firmware.

And btw flashing to K810 is not an 'upgrade'.

WOW! you have a MEGA Patch collection in your signature. May I?  
Therefore, you are suggesting to patch my K800 R1KG001 to R8BF003?

Ok, is there will be a problem will occur if I use K800_R8BF003_FS_C_ASIA_RED52 or K800_R8BF003_FS_EUROPE_2_RED52
instead of K800_R8BF003_FS_M_EAST_N_AFR_RED52 based on my information that I post above?

Please correct me if this procedure is not possible to change my K800 R1KG001 to R8BF003.

Apply Quick Access Patch

First we enable quick access patching for your firmware using db2020 security bypass and from then on apply other patches using quick access patch.

Drag and Drop your Main Firmware on qamaker.exe , it will generate the quick access patch .vkp for your firmware. Qamaker is included in the Setool 2 lite download archive.

Note. Download the Main firmware for your phone from Topse.ru if you don’t have. Or Goto Contact Section of this website and make a request for the Main firmware for your phone. I will get back to you.

Now start SeTool 2 Lite
In Files box click add and add the main firmware you used to generate quick access patch.

Now in Misc Files click ‘….’ and add the quick access vkp patch generated.

Check Bypass db2020 Security ! Press Flash. Reinsert Battery and connect phone holding C. Leave C when phone gets detected and operation starts. Wait for db2020 security bypass operations

When done setool 2 lite asks you to unplug phone, reinsert battery, Press READY and then connect phone holding C. Do it in order, Correctly.

SeTool 2 lite Flashes the Main. When main is flashed it starts to apply the patch.
It asks you to Click NO to apply the patch and YES To Remove the Patch. Hence Click No. Wait for a few minutes. Patching will complete and you have successfully applied the quick access patch.

Should I add the file system? Either "K800_R8BF003_FS_EUROPE_2_RED52.fbn" or "K800_R8BF003_FS_C_ASIA_RED52"

Thanks!

Depends on what languages you want. If it's only English then any CID52 R8BF FS will do.

So, Should I add the file system (CID52 R8BF FS) in the procedure of Akshay, together with the MAIN FW (.mbn)?

after I made the Applying of Quick Access Patch then I can use your patch.

Thanks!

I would flash the FS & custom first, then follow that guide to add the qapatch.
