    there is a slight catch if u damage break or try to return it they wont take it due to u flashing it and the camera on the update dont always work

    ye ill point outa few forums for definitve response:
    www.se-nse.net
    www.topsony.com
    www.esato.com

    basically thers few methods: two free, one paying
    im just going to give brief outline (for more info goto http://www.se-nse.net )

    GDFS flasher : free also finalizes the flash

    davinci server, wotan server , total multi server: costs about $8 also finalise flash

    @slither91 the chances, if you follow the steps, of doin anything wrong are very low. Most people end out with better W800i phones.

    ALSO id recomend buying soem OEM sony ericsson w800i housing with this giving it the true w800i look

    FAR manager; hardest one to do, finalises flash but a previous step is required first


    NOTES: a Dcu-60 usb cable is needed(included with phone)
    a CID36 firmware phone or this will not work
    (if you have a CID49 then you need a cruiser cable)

    Hey everybody, i have a related question. Thought i'd ask here instead of starting a new thread.

    My question is, does the warranty get void if I change my firmware from K750i to w800i? What if i get back to k750i after that, do the Service center people come to know that i had once made the transition?

    Well most people are saying that the warranty will not be acceptable thats why i wouldnt do it now but then i am not sure if they would recognise that the firmware has been changed back to the original one .
