Does anyone know what are the different firmwares available for flashing a 703sh ? And how do you confirm your present firmware ? By using the power+8 method or any other method ?

[B][I] Well see the thing is theres a difference between a 703shf and a 703sh, if you have a 703sh then your phone automatically has the euro firmware. Not sure exactly if its even possible to flash it to anything else since theres some hardware difference's between the 703sh and the 703shf, they also look different. Don't feel like posting pictures so just do a search online. O and the 703shf has the japanese firmware ya know Repro message, full screen wallpapers, needs mp3s to be in m4a format to play and ringtones saved to the phone in mmf format.

703sh has chinese and jp fw available...

SHARP SX633 I believe is the chinese firmware version of the 703sh, if i'm wrong anybody can correct me.

Yea but they are completly different phones, 703sh doesn't come in jp firmware or chinese, all three of the phones are the same model with few different specs, design and name.

703SH does come in Euro flavour (although the name could be V703SH). The SX313 is the Chinese version of 703SH. The hardware side is absolutely same, thus the firmwares are cross-flashable (the buttons and the operator branding are just a cover that can be changed).

703SHf was the Japan-only FeliCa-equipped model which doesn't have EU/Chinese equivalents. And the screen seems to have changed from the 703SH, thus making the FW non-cross-flashable without the new screen driver from the JP 703SHf firmware.

SX633(a) is the Chinese version of 705SH, of course the hardware being different from the original (although less raped than the 770SH). Because the 705SH, 770SH and SX633(a) do not share the hardware in a whole they cannot be cross-flashed.

jeebjp,

"And the screen seems to have changed from the 703SH, thus making the FW non-cross-flashable without the new screen driver from the JP 703SHf firmware."

so, you mean 703sh can be flashed with JP 703SHS + new screen driver. is this driver available ?



Posted by: Junglizt1210

no, jeebjp said that the 703SHf has a better, different screen to the 703SH. You can cross flash the 703SH firmwares onto the variations of the phone, but not the 703SHf and vice versa, due to hardware differences.

Hello Junglizt,
so , what firmware do you use on your 703sh ?



Posted by: Junglizt1210

i have a 703SHf, not a 703SH - Japanese is the only one available on for phone - not that i mind...

sx633 = 703
...

really people

sx313 = 703

703SH has euro, jp, hk fw hk being sx313
you can cross flash the 703SH just like the 902 and 903

703SHf which adds felica, different screen a little different design, colour and macro mode on the camera and
703SHf can not be cross flashed

703SH are most common in the sx313 form cause everyone in hk has one a lot of people just flash it to the sx313 form

703SHf users are stuck w/ jp fw not that theres anything wrong with it

do some research hit the search button

got a question i have the utility software cd (vodafone 703Shf) and im wondering which one i should install? theres usb driver, modem driver, and handset manager?

what do each of them do?



Posted by: ace587

what do want to do??



Posted by: xKamei

i mean when i insert the disc right, i have the option to install any of those 3 things. im wondering what do they do



Posted by: jeebjp

xKamei, USB driver is for connection between the 703SH and PC through the cable (the usually needed driver). After installation of the USB Driver you can use the Handset Manager (the Handset Manager can connect in other ways, too, but I'd stick with the cable). The modem driver will allow you to use your 703SH as a modem, so if you want to use it like that you can install the modem driver.



Posted by: xKamei

oo ok, so i should install all 3 right? just in case.
