Hi all,

Have a question regarding flashing custom firmware.

I'm using red 5800, RM-356 0570916, firmware v 31.0.101

I want to flash my 5800 to XFW International Custom v1.0EC firmware, downloaded the custom firmware quite a while ago but didn't dare to flash it until now coz the phone is like damn slow d , i have the following files:

RM-356_40.0.005_prd.rofs2.V22
RM356_40.0.005_023_xxx_U01.uda.fpsx
RM-356_40.0.005_C01_prd.rofs3.fpsx
RM356_0570196_40.0.005_001.dcp
RM356_0570196_40.0.005_001.vpl
RM356_0570196_40.0.005_001_signature.bin

but then i realized "RM-356_40.0.005_prd.core.C00" is missing, i tried to use Navifirm to download the original 0570916 firmware and realized the 40.0.005 version of 0570916 (including the blue and black variant for malaysia) is not there anymore

i downloaded the "RM-356_40.0.005_prd.core.C00" from APAC1 RED (0559476) as a replacement and tried it on JAF, everything seems ok to be flash as below:



this means i can flash and won't brick the phone using the replacement file from APAC1 RED (0559476) right? and the chinese input will still be available?

thanks! =)

i see, how is it different from using JAF to flash? it won't brick the phone if there's problem with the firmware files?
