Firmware EMEA modded and debranded version of yan0's 53p

[mischka]

This is R542_G_11.60.53R (china mobile branded firmware) modded by yan0 from ccmove and supporting startup scrips.

startup.txt script for me is very important and helpfull with this phone.
This is the only fw for A1600 that supports startup.txt scripts that I could find

Theme, skins and icons I changed to generic ones.

chinese language and keyboard is removed and there is now EMEA keyboard which includes accented letters and german umlaute.

GUI is in english, french, portuguese and spanish.

Also included is: application manager that supports mpkg, superman, backup tool and MCleaner (both from 51p generic)

A1600_53p_yan0_20081105_debr_mis_emea_01.html



This is the same fw but with english keyboard modded to german, including äöüß and z/y flipped
A1600_53p_yan0_20081105_debr_mis_emea_de_01.html



For those (like me) who don't want to have useless apps (like barcode reader, STK, pushemail...) in their menu, I wrote a set of scripts that remove these apps (one script for each app).
just copy the folder manageapps to your TF and execute the matching script on the phone.

Have fun

hi mischka. This firmware works over any firmware??.
Mine is R542_G_11.61.21R

This fw displays R542_G_11.60.53R after doing www008w.

I flashed it whithout any problem over R542_G_11.60.51R that was on my phone when I bought it.

There is always a risk doing something nobody else has reported but it's both R542 fw so I don't believe you will have trouble. Of course I didn't try and cannot guarantee for it!

With A1200 there is trouble only if we try to flash R532(H2) over R532C2 or R532x over R541 any other difference than with R5xxx doesn't matter there. Until now, I don't have reason to think that this is different with A1600.
But again: I cannot guarantee
