Hi All,

Recently I flashed my K790i to K810i using XS++.
After the flashig process was over it showed successfully done. But now it shows No Network Coverage and my phone doesn't get charged.
I flashed it with customization of Central Europe_2.
Plz help me to get my phone again to K790i normal (for INDIA).
Can any1 suggest something????
I am totally confused as how can I get back my normal K790i for INDIA.

Thanx in advance!

Hi, I think K790 has different radio band as K810i. The former does not support 3G/UMTS, the later does. So, there is a trouble.
Perhaps you can run Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) and let see what happens. If it does not work, it's time to visit a service centre.

Pankhil, you shouldn't flash your phone to K810. Aremaboy is right, K790 doesn't support 3g while K810 does.
If you want to 'upgrade' then you should flash your phone with K818 firmware. They are the same (no 3g)

NOOO K790 CANNOT be flashed to K810... You need K818 firmware files. K790 is not 3g phone as the K810 is.. So you should use K818 firmware files which are non 3g firmware and it should work for you. It can work but there are cases when it doesn't... Because the K790 and K818 have different network bands after all... It depends on your network if it is going to work 100% or not... Try flashing it with K818 firmware files. You should be able to find such files around www.se-nse.com or www.4shared.com

Then use this tutorial if your phone is CID49/51 or 52:

and if your phone is CID53, use this one:

P.S. Use K818 firmware files instead of the K810 ones provided in the tutorial... It should work then.
