I've tried this twice now, and killed my phone twice too - so I must be doing something wrong!
I downloaded XS++ 1.6.8 to my desktop, and created a folder on the desktop called files_to_upload and put in all the icons as described in the readme.

I then connected my phone (W810i) to XS++, and it all got detected OK. I ticked "Customize Filesystem", selected the "Way In" method (first one) then went to "Start FSX". It put in a bootloader and said to disconnect and reconnect the battery then reconnect phone pressing 'C'. Did that, and it said phone restarted successfully, but then nothing happens. If I click "Stop FSX" then it warns I might damage the phone... the only other option is "close". Whichever I do, my phone will no longer start even after removing and replacing the battery!

Luckily the SE update service seems to resurrect it if I tell it to continue anyway, but I must be doing something dumb. Do I need to flash a different filesystem before this hack will work? Some more details on using XS++ would be great!

I'm not sure, I recommend you post the question on the XS++ thread at se-nse.net

Post the XS++.log file.

just put back an original K810. Delete any icon files in the menu folder just to be tidy.

Yeah Max I think you're guess is right... its' like way to operator customizations.

@Xenon
Is your phone branded? Or was branded? Cause those files were of your operator (I guess). Do you remember what were the icons?

And what exactly doesn't work with original menu.ml? Icons cahnged, phone doesnt turn on, .. what?

Xenon, sorry I did mean K810 menu.ml!! AS pedrops says. what doesn't work? You still have the same icons, or the phone doesn't start up... etc?
