After my article on K550i Firmware update, I got some queries on modding & flashing your phone. As I said in my earlier post firmware updation should be done with caution. And Modding & Flashing is even a bigger risk.

So as my Sony Ericsson K550i cybershot has its counterpart in Sony Ericsson W610i walkman, a K550i can be modded / flashed to W610i. Whereby you will get Flash Lite enabled themes, WalkMan 2.0 media player (better music management) and MegaBass. Here is a youtube video of a K550i modded to a Cybershot Walkan.

Here are two methods by which you can convert K550i to W610i,

  1. Flash Tools : Here is a great thread on how you can use flashing software and downloaded W610 FS to mod your K550i. Or for other SE phones visit SE-NSE forums for great tips & tricks on modding & flashing.
  2. WoTan Server : Here is a service similar to Sony Ericsson Update Service (SEUS) which can do things like flashing , modding etc but at a price

I have been a member of paypal (online payment processing site) for a year now. Yesterday I received a mail stating that I need to change my address. I blindly clicked on the link and entered my name and password but stopped short of any card details. The same day I came across a TV program which depicted how phishing and other types of online fraud are robbing people of their money.
So on second thought I saw the mail again and found out that I have been a victim of “phishing attack”.

So Techies / Dummies alike kindly check whether you are going to the correct website. Paypal, in their site have listed out a series of hints to find whether its a fradulent mail or not. Read it here>> . I think these two steps will keep you safe,

  1. Paypal, sends email to their users with their first name & last name. For example, Dear John Marks whereas the fradulent mail will have Dear paypal user or something similar to that
  2. Better don’t click the link on the mail , go to the corresponding site and then log in

To check whether how aware are you of phishing here is a challenge from Paypal itself, test your know how.
