Hello
So time has come for me to change my camdrivers on my K800i and just to be safe i have some questions to you experts.

1)
Im going to use XS++ to change the drivers i think.
Does it matter wich firmware i have on my K800? Right now i have R1KG001 CID52.
I read in some thread that only CID49 worked to change camdrivers on, but that post was a couple months old..

2)
I guess it is a good idea to backup the original camdriver?
How do i do that the easiest way?

3)
Number1 wrote these steps to change drivers to his:
1.up zip ifs.zip
2. run xs++.exe
3. take out ur phone battery
4. press connect
5. put phone battery back in and plug ur phone into pc holding down C
6. click FSX
7. click start FSX
8. browse to ifs/settings/camera
9. click upload
10.now find my camdriver0.dat
11.double click it and it will upload and replace ur old camdriver0.dat
12.press shutdown then yes
13.press close and disconnect phone

They seem really easy, is it the SAME steps for EVEREY camdriver out there?

4)
If i do change camdrivers, is the warranty on the phone still active then?
OR does that go away when i mod the phone?
It is a fairly expensive phone and it would suck to screw up the process and have to buy a new one.

5)
Do i have to flash the phones firmware, with these "FS" and "MAIN" in order to be able to install camdrivers?


And i tried searching the forum but i didnt came up with the answers i was looking for so i hope you can try to answer.
Thanks in advance! Im just trying to prepare!

EDIT: Added a last question, as you can se im a newbie on this so bear with me.

EDIT2: I went for it and tried to upload Ultimate Camdriver v1.1 VividColor with XS++.
And it went GOOD, no problems. Was alot easier than i thought from the beginning.
So i really dont need answers to my questions anymore, well maybe number 4.
Will now try all the camdrivers out there to find the best one! Cheers!
