Um, you did get a cable with your K750? A USB cable. That's all you need.

Is this something you have tried out yourself? As far as I have understood it you need a certain kind of service cable!!!

It's the older Sony Ericssons that needed a service cable to flash with 3rd party applications. You use the cable supplied with the K750 for flashing it.

Are you sure? As far as I know, you must use the cruiser cable to flash the K750i to W800i.

So I can convert my K750i to W800i using Total Multiserver with the cable that comes with K750i?

Why would they ?
I could do it easily but havent because I see no point in doing so, and by far most average users feel the same. I dont care for either the mediaplayer or the "flightmode", and thats all you get from the w800 firmware.
Most users prefer to keep the original firmware, and thus also keeping warranty and keeping the ability to future updating through seus.

OK guys, maybe i'm stupid but i canīt get it working using the original cable. I have installed the cruiser drivers and set the port/com number to 10 which is the usb com port. This is the message i keep receiving:

Error opening the serial port!
Error code:0x002f00

Someone can tell whats wrong either with me or with the settings =)

Sorry for this thread turning from cable question to a software question but the two feel related...

impossible to use the DCU-60 with totalmultiserver. To use totalmultiserver you must buy special service cable.

The only 3th party flasher that currenly supports flashing K750 (flash decustomize & language) is www.davinciteam.com

W800 firmware can this moment not be flashed with DCU60

addition:

W800 can be flashed with W800 firmware ofcource (with DCU60), but cannot be used with K750 since phone will need conversion (conversions can at this time ONLY be done with service cable)
