@uchi: as you flashed your phone with an old firmware as well, i recomend you to flash it with a newer one. and in case you need to upgrade your CID, do it.

the american version FS didnt work for me
the flashing failed
so i download the european version and used one of the default custpack built in xs++ (coz i dont kno how to apply a custpack)
but the fone died after 8 hours of use
about changing the cid
isnt that gona cause some problems like lock the fone or brand it or something?

how do i load my own (downloaded) custpack in xs++2.2

you should have tried updating through SEUS, it is the safest way to update your firmware, or just do again the reflashing you did in your phone before. or just choose a different fs,main and custpack.

i tried the SEUS but it said i have the most recent software
1-can i flash with any custpack and FS i find on the web or are there any restriction
2-and if there are restriction how do i know which one can i use
3-how to flash with the custpack that i download

here's the guide
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=156090
i think there are links there where to download FS main and custpacks.
there are no restrictions in choosing what FS,main or custpacks,
just remember that the FS, main and must be of the same firmware, country and erom color example
FS_APAC_R1KG001_RED
your main must be
MAIN_APAC_R1KG001_RED
(you can check your er0m color through XS++, the erom color of your phone should be the same of FS and main files you will flash on your phone, the country-APAC,CHINA, etc. depends on where you live or just use the GENERIC ones to be safe, choose the most up to date firmware version, choosing an older firmware than your current firmware may damage your phone)
*in short all should be matched
and about the custpacks you'll choose-it must be compatible to the fs and main files you download.
example you chose:
FS_APAC_R1KG001_RED
MAIN_APAC_R1KG001_RED
youn should choose custpacks for R1KG001 APAC
try choosing "continue anyway" in SEUS when it says that your phone is up to date before you reflash your phone and see if it solves your problem

thanks a bunch dude that really helped me a lot
and about SEUS i didnt get any option like continue anyway
i flashed the fone with these
K800_R1GB001_MAIN_GENERIC_RED49.rar
K800_R1JG001_FS_EUROPE_1_RED52.rar
are these the latest versions?
i didnt see the option to choose your own custpack like the ones for FS and MAIN
how do i set xs++ to flash the fone with the custpack that i downlaod?
Posted by byron26
K800_R1GB001_MAIN_GENERIC_RED49.rar
K800_R1JG001_FS_EUROPE_1_RED52.rar
are you wrecking your phone?!
it must be the same firmware
the latest firmware is r8****
I FORGOT BUT SECOND TO THE LATEST IS
R1kG001
AND UNRAR the files before you flash your phone
the file extensions must be .mbn and .fbn
not .rar
i told you that it must be the same look at the files you download
K800_R1GB001_MAIN_GENERIC_RED49.rar
K800_R1JG001_FS_EUROPE_1_RED52.rar
it must be both R1GB001 or both R1JG001
download
K800_R1KG001_Main_Generic
K800_R1KG001_FS_generic or europe if you prefer

ouch
didnt think that one through
can u giv me a link for those please
and i still dont kno how to load a custpack (other than the ones already in xs++ drop down list)
Posted by byron26
about the custpacks,
it is on the FXS
you can see FSX on the configuration located almost at the bottom of the window click it
browse the custpack and upload it to tpa/preset/custom
*mind you the process is flash your phone's FS and main
then after it had successfully flashed
turn on your phone and wait for configuration error message in your phone's screen after that turn off your phone again and plug it in your computer and connect to XS++ and thats where the finaliztaion-or the time when you'll upload the custpack
Posted by uchi
rite got that
now can i get a link please for the FS MAIN and CUSTPACK
the site given in the tutorial have
RIGB001 and RIED001
plz giv me a new link for the latest FS MAIN and CUSTPACK
Posted by byron26
i think you should ask the author of the guide that i gave you, he is the one who also gave me the necessary files. gather all the files and make sure it is matched well. study the process. it is an easy process but risky so be sure you know what you are doing

another question
wat hapens if i change the phone from cid49 to cid52
Posted by byron26
whats your phone's CID?
i think only CID52 phones can be flashed.
i don't know what CID does in the phone.
Posted by uchi
mine is cid49
i cant find the latest files
where do you download the files from when u gota flash the phone?
Posted by byron26
i don't know about the CID thing but i think there are some topics discussing it. just search over the forum
Posted by byron26
uchi PM the author of the flashing guide i gave you he's the one who gave me the files before when i need it
