If you have one of the nobbled K750I's then it will show the camera zoom sort of working in larger picture setting but unless you change the camera hardware as well you cant zoom correctly on the large picture size or save pictures that you zoom in for.

Go to www.wotanserver.com and download the Wotan client. Follow the instructions to let the wotanserver read the phone. Select the CDA, make sure Finalise is ticked. Then change the phone model to W800 and select which software version you want. Then click on Start. The phone will be updated with W800 software. You will need to buy a credit from Wotan as well.

Or you could use the link I posted above & do the conversion without spending any money.

If you follow the info in that link you will end up losing the auto focus feature of the camera.You also don't get the full W800 software.Wotanserver does everything and is the better choice imo

I used that link about 3 months ago & have the full W800 software, walkman player with flight mode & perfectly working autofocus on my K750I.

I tried to use Wotanserver before & it just robbed me of my credit

I've also followed the info in the link.Also if you read further down that page.It is said that it doesn't put W800 firmware on the phone and you lose auto focus on the camera.It just changes parts of the K750 programming therefore its not the original W800 software.I've been using Wotan since day one and never had a problem.Used it a few days ago to reflash my project K750 with W800 software.All installed fine and took 6mins.For ¬7 (£5) it a much better option with much less hassle and you get genuine SE software which has no operator branding (bonus). There are other ways to do it but if your a novice at firmware flashing. Wotan is the best way to go.

Ive used the steps in the link I posted above

Ive ended up with a K750I with full walkman player / flight mode, it still says its a K750I when you check the model info in the service test but it has the walkman player / flight mode & walkman instead of media player on the menu.

The auto focus on the camera still works FINE just like it did before

Ive tried wotan before & found it a pain to try & use plus it robbed my credit.
