Thanks guys for the great work.

I do have a couple of questions:
I have a s500i, which the update service says is a k800 fs so I'm hoping this works.

I'm trying to get the reminder tone so can modify it, so my default_upgrades.xml file looks like this:

-------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<customization>
<file-operations>
<file-op parse-mask="fa" op="copy" source="fs/tpa/preset/system/sound/reminder.3gp" dest="usb/backup/fs/tpa/preset/system/sound/reminder.3gp"/>
</file-operations>
</customization>
----------------------
does that look right? That's the whole file, I deleted all the other stuff, right?

Copied it to /tpa/preset/default and restarted the phone. I don't know if anything happened.
I don't know how to do step 7. I tried in FAR and I don't see a USB folder, I tried in windows and still no usb folder.
what am I missing?

Best Regards

S500 probably uses tpa/user instead of usb. So use tpa/user/other/backup (create a backup folder first in your phone memory's other folder) rather than usb/backup

Thanks max,

I'm trying to understand how this process works.
can you explain to me a little bit how the folder structure should look in the defaults file?
For example, in FAR when I double click on FS, I see this:
ifs
queue
system
tpa

so in the default xma file:
<file-op parse-mask="fa" op="copy" source="fs/tpa/preset/system/sound/reminder.3gp" dest="usb/backup/fs/tpa/preset/system/sound/reminder.3gp"/>

does that look right or do I need to change anything, besides what you just described about the backup folder?

best regards

you need to put your code within the code tages (click bbcode at the bottom when you click reply, a page will come up with info about bbcode - look for the "code" tag and how to use it)

Code:
<file-op parse-mask="fa" op="copy" source="fs/tpa/preset/system/sound/reminder.3gp"
dest="tpa/user/backup/fs/tpa/preset/system/sound/reminder.3gp"/>

no, tpa/user/backup is the folder that everything will be copied to. You can access this folder via the usb cable, so you can then copy the backup up files to your computer.

Maybe you should use tpa/user/other/backup (then there will be a folder called "backup" in your other folder)
