help friends,

i can't seem to get XS++ (darwin) to detect my P1i. when i connect it the logs say:

15:17:45| XS++ v3.1 (Darwin) Ready !

15:17:45| Executed on Microsoft Windows XP

15:17:57| Executing SEMC Smartphone Operations!

15:17:57| Please hold boot key ('@' or 'C') and connect device...

15:18:43| Master Port detected: COM3

15:18:43| Slave Port detected: COM4

15:18:43| Opening Port!

15:18:44| Init Master Failed!

i followed the steps on their help file. am i failing to do something else here??

do i need to uninstall SEUS?

EDIT: got it to work, was pressing the back key when it should've been the 7 key. i'm now on WG1 latest firmware!

Hi all!

Thanks to grizlore's advice I managed to find this thread on flashing my P1i's software.

can anyone tell me if it's advisable for me to do this? This is my situation: I have the HK firmware with Chinese pack installed and because of this all my fonts are not anti-aliased. Now I would honestly rather have my anti-aliased fonts so it's easier on the eyes, especially since I hardly type messages in Chinese anyway.

Should I be using XS++ to flash my firmware to a different (I guess a generic world version or something) firmware? or should I just grin and bear the non-anti-aliased fonts?

Any watchouts especially since I'm going from HK firmware to something else? If back up my phone using SE PC Suite, I should be pretty safe already right?

It's my first time to do this so I really wanna take all precautions, and I'm nowhere close to a technician.

Thank you!!

I got my P1 today from Plemix and as usual, it has HK or some Asian firmware inside and some of the files are also named in Asian text. How do I successfully change this to some other CDA? And then update?

I managed to do it finally. Now I have totally removed the HK firmware and running W1.

Updating with SEUS now...


Thanks.
