Here’s the tutorial you all wanted, hope it helps.
Before you use the turorial, you will need the following
A2Uploader (Click here to download)
Sony Ericsson Update Service (Click here to download)
Sony Ericsson Theme Creator(Click here to download)
If you have a Sony Ericsson Aino or any of the other new phones, use the FarManager tutorial instead, Click here to view it
Part 1: Installing the flash menu
1) Run the A2Uploader and then click on “FileSystem Tool”
2) Navigate to “/tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash”
3) Now drag your flash menu into the right side window
4) Now click on “Shutdown FS Manager”
5) Now click on “Quit” to close A2Uploader
If your flash menu came with a theme, then you can skip part 2 and just install the theme
Part 2: Activating the flash menu
1) Double click your theme file and the Theme Creator will open. If you get a message similar to the one above, just click “Yes”
2) Now click on the “XML” icon
3) Now copy and past this line just before the </Sony_Ericsson_theme>, replacing “MenuName” with the name of your flash menu
<Desktop_style Source=”MenuName.swf” Type=”File”/>
Then click on “OK”
4) A box will appear similar to the one above, just click “Yes”
5) Now click on the save icon to save the theme, and simply upload the file to your phone using bluetooth or via the cable
That concludes the tutorial, if you have any queries or have any issues then just let me know

Hi sushant, it looks like you are using the wrong version of a flash menu, only flash lite 3, flash menus will work on your phone.

Hi Henry, A2Uploader only works with older phones, try using FarManager.
hi, were can i get flash lite 3??
Hi zul, flash lite is installed on the phone by Sony Ericsson so you can’t upgrade it. If you have a new phone such as Aino, Cedar, Zylo, etc then you have Flash Lite 3. If you have C905, W995, C902, etc then you have Flash Lite 2.1. If you have K850, W910, etc then you have Flash Lite 2.0. Most of the latest menus on this site work on all phones.
it is this tutorial work on se hazel j20i ? i want change flash menu , tq .
Hi newbies, follow the FarManager tutorial instead, as that supports your phone.

Hi newbies, did you install the flash menu onto your phone, into the folder ‘/tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash’, if you did then chances are the theme is not linked with the flash menu, just follow part 2 of this tutorial.
