Posted by Sammy_boy
Tried this on both my w760i and my elderly k750i with early firmware and it worked on both!

Posted by goldenface
Ha haaa, brilliant.

A nice surprise, I wonder how long that has been there as its obviously on the older phones as well.

i'm waiting for that

Posted by Boysie
Fantastic idea!!

Posted by dennevhyn_31
Cool! Who discovered this? Hehehe. Sony Ericsson ROCKS!

@yea g: that's a very good idea. You can put 'Nokia SUX!' after 'Sony Ericsson ROCKS!' Hehe.

Posted by yea g
ok all I need is a patch tutorial

I don't know how to make patches, but I believe it just changes certain hex values, If anyone can give me a tutorial then cool!

btw on w660 firmware the sony ericsson rocks thing is:

1a8068: 53 6f 6e 79 20 45 72 69 63 73 73 6f 6f 0a 52 4f 43 4b 53 21 00 00 00

(thats Sony Ericsson ROCKS! in hex)
I think thats how you make patches (by changing these values and saving them in a vkp file) but could someone confirm this??

Edit: Looking at some of my previous vkp files, it uses a different method . If anyone could tell me, that would be great

ok so I got the "536F6E79204572696373736F6E0A524F434B5321 4E6F6B6961205355434B53210000000000000000" part (replaces the first part with the second) but what I dont get is the part before the colon any help?

Posted by Boysie
That is the base address (The point at which the code starts in the firmware). I Used WinHEX to load the main raw file and then searched for 'Sony Ericsson ROCKS!' You can change this to anything you like as long as its not too long.
