hi
well, flashing the k550 to w610 gives you: walkman player and flash themes. no more.

Yes..these are the best things....but about the cam...when you make it the quality of this became worse than without to flash but with the camdrives avaliables in several websites you can improve it, the question is: do or not do it!

Yes..it could be a way...but i really wanted a opinion of someone that have done it in your k550...and if after to do that (i mean, made the changes and also improved the sound and cam drives) it still is better than not flash. |

Flash it. If you don't like it, you can always flash it again |

The firmware files (FS, MAIN) really only depend on what kind of language you want on your phone. CDA has to match the firmware area you chose when you finalize the phone, or it won't turn on |

Hi,
I was going to flash a k550 with w610 firmware.
I have some questions:
1) Will the camera button on the right side of the phone work?
2) Do I lose all my Cybershot abilities on the camera?
Can some list all the advantages and disadvantages?
Thanks in advance |

About your questions man...
- Yes, the button on the right side won't work when you make this change (but, you can leave the original drive of the cam)
- You won't lose the abilities on your cybershot!
About the vantages and disvantages...i wanna discover as well!! =)
cuz i have no courage to do it yet!!! =)

hi
@andre
some of ur answers are wrong, i've personally flashed my k550 into w610 and found out dat,
1. The cam button on the right side still work. U can change the cam driver.
2. U wont loose any functionalities but u'll loose the cybershot logo when u start ur camera. Camera will not activate automatically when u open the lens cover. Dats the oni disadvantage.
just check this site out, i tried in my K550i and it worked perfectly.
U can find more info abt advantages and disadvantages frm here, including how to mod it.

hey there,I am currently using a K550i.I really didnt like the sound quality and the volume level provided by the back speaker and the earphones.So what i did was just changed my acoustics and camera driver(Chris's cam driver roxx-thnx chris).So now i have the original K550i with excellent sound quality and camera driver.My sound quality is even better than a normal non-modded W810i can u beat that.Only thing missing is flash themes .........for which i really dont care about until my camera and speakers are damn good.So my opinion is just change cam and acoustics >>>>>the phone rocks then

i flashed my k550 and i liked more with w610 firmware, the walkman 2.0 and the flash menus are very good things to have in a phone 
the camera quality was the same, i didnt nitice any diference and the sound quality was a little better
