I often heard k800@k810 but is it possible to change it to some Walkman Series ?

If Yes, then which would be best ?

Not really possible mate. I think some people have tried but they have lost some functions of the phone, camera, joystick for example.

Yes some tried to convert to W850 which is almost identical except camera and joystick. So they lost it. But somewhere they put a K800 camera driver and found it working.
And yes u gain flash menus and walkman. I guess flash menus will be possible soon by patching.

Flash menus by patching... I dont think so mate. If it was possible in k800/810 it would have been done by now and would require a huge amount of code.

I think that if some one really took this ( to make the walkman firmware work on k-series) more as a challenge or seriously, they might have done it i guess ??

'coz if the k-Pad is the only thing that doesn't work then there definetily must be a possibility !!


Any ways ... Hope Flash gets enabled

It may be possible but such job requires a lot of coding... Flash themes are also something integrated in the firmware so the chances are the same. It is as dificult to get flashtemes on K800 as porting walkman from other phone firmware...
