If you follow the guide properly and carefully you shouldn't have a problem.
Tha only part of the guide that is questionable is when it tells you to press the 'c' button when plugging the lead in, you should actually press the number '2' button. |

well, I said cd52 and then had to buy another coupon and chose the version in the wotan server, the cxc1250640
R1KC001 070318
I am not sure if it's cd51 or cd52
It is the generic europe 1 (Spanish, English, French and Portuguese)

It is cid 52 as it only shows versions for your cid. What he meant was cda which determines branding and region variation cid has nothing to do with that its just a Security update

did you follow the directions accordingly, its strange that you've lost the games, w880i has only 1 pre-installed game which is QuadraPop not unless you installed other games, obviously these will all be gone after flashing to any new firmware.
to quote "WotanServer does not backup your phone prior to flashing the firmware.."
flashing will install default applications, eg World Clock and Music Mate, doing a master reset after flashing will only remove Music Mate, reseting the second time will wipe out World Clock too.
I have about 100 songs encoded as acc/m4a at 96kbps taking about 290MB of space from my stick and i dont have any problem with walkman's speed.

well, were it branded , it would be easy to find:
a) logo in the outside
b) internet settings in the settingd, of course 
c) some direct connections to a operator webpage
d) some other operator signs left in the menu
Hope it helps |

Future buyers, please be aware that if you currently use the loudspeaker function to listen to music, this is probably the worst walkman phone. Due to the size of the phone you can imagine the harsh quiet sounds that emerge from this tiny speaker. I upgraded from a w800i but I've had to take it back solely for this reason. I'm not an audiophile, anyone can hear how awful it sounds.
I have to have a phone with a loudspeaker for music so probably going to hang on for the w610i depending on reviews. |
