FarManager Tutorial by kr8ter Preview

Here’s something of which will interest you all ;)

Before we begin, we need to take care of a few things.

Now lets get to work

Screenshot 1

Extract the downloaded zip file and run the file “Far.exe”

Screenshot 2

Once the program has loaded, press “F11″ on the keyboard, to load the pop-up menu, which shows you all the plug-ins

Screenshot 3

Click on “SEFP2″, this is the plugin which lets you access your phone

Screenshot 4

Click on “Connect”, to start the connection process

Screenshot 5

Turn off your phone, then press and hold the “C” button on your phone’s keypad. Whilst holding the button, plugin the cable.
If the “C” button does not work, you can try holding the buttons “2″ & “5″ together.

Screenshot 6

Navigate to where your menu is stored on your computer using the left hand column.

Navigate to /tpa/preset/system/desktop/flash using the right hand column.

NB “..” – if you click this, then you will go to the parent folder.

Screenshot 7

Click the menu you want to upload on the left hand column, and drag it onto the right hand column

Screenshot 8

Click on “Copy”, which will upload a copy of the file onto your phone

Screenshot 9

Now click on “Quit”, when you have finished uploading all the menus onto your phone

Screenshot 10

Click on “Yes” to exit the program

That concludes the tutorial, if you want to link this flash menu to a different theme, then view this tutorial and skip to part 2

If you get any problems, then just post a comment. Thanks

      Hi vegeta, to be honest, I don’t really know of any apps which can view PDF files on Sony Ericsson phones.

    hey kr8ter,i’ve been reading stuff on the internet like changing the camdriver,flashing the phone,changing the accoustic driver etc..what exactly is this stuff..??i guessed it must be changing the quality of the pic u snap,bt m nt sure of it..i read it on these sites (esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=197176) and (esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=201425&start=15)..please tell me what above terms mean..thanx in advance..:)

      Hi vegeta, changing the camera driver, is where you install a modified driver, which someone has created to try and improve picture quality.
      Flashing the phone is usually to do with adding patches, or changing the phone’s firmware.
      Changing the acoustic drivers, is where you install a modified driver, to improve the sound quality of the speakers, for example, it can make them louder, clearer or add more bass.

      Just to let you know, these are all mods created by normal users on the internet, and are not supported by Sony Ericsson.

    hey kr8ter, earlier i sud connect my phne thru far manager n i hve installed many flash menues using dis software bt of recent wen i chose 2 connect my phne by switching off my phne and pressing the c button it doesnt detect the phne…..????
    whats wrong????

    • kr8ter says:

      Hi Lionel, you could try taking the battery out, then putting it back in and then trying to connect the phone. Alternatively, try holding ’2′ + ’5′ buttons instead.

  9. vinayak says:

    Hi ! Cr8ter,this is regarding the tutorial.i have sony ericsson cedar (j108i)for my previous post u replied that my phone supports far manager then if I want 2 add flash menu 2 other theme should i use A2uploader? and did far manager is used only for adding flash themes(with flash menu) 2 your phone.
    And
    After completing the tutorial what is the next step?
    Should i update it with update service…
    ….plz reply 2 above
    Thanking you….

    • kr8ter says:

      Hi vinayak, use FarManager to upload the flash menu onto your phone. For transferring the theme, you can simply use the cable (phone/mass storage mode) or bluetooth it, if you can. Also, to link a flash menu to another theme, follow part 2 of this tutorial.

      Regarding updating your phone, that is entirely up-to-you, but most updates usually improve the phone by adding/improving existing features.

    День добрый это опять Евгений)))у меня проблема не могу подключить телефон все перепробывал и “С” и 2 ,5 колонка не появляется((((может неправильная последовательность действий,или режимы УСБ?и вопрос такой при поключении программа может запросить форматироние диска G?

    • kr8ter says:

      Когда FarManager просит вас плагин телефон, сначала выключите телефон, отсоедините батарею, положил его обратно дюйма Нажмите и удерживайте кнопку ‘C’ или ’2 кнопки +5, то плагин кабеля. Windows будет попытаться найти драйвера и установить их для вас, если он не может их найти, то попробуйте загрузить Sony Ericsson Update Service, поскольку это содержит драйверы.кольку это содержит драйверы.

  13. Евгений says:

    че то я вообще не пойму!!!сделал все по скринам только у меня тел с правой колонки а все ровно меню осталось прежним ничего не изменилось?!из за чего может быть?я не сколько файлов закидывал

    • kr8ter says:

      Вы включения темы на вашем телефоне? Кроме того, убедитесь, что вы поместили флэш-меню в ‘/tpa/preset/system/desktop’. Наконец, убедитесь, что в меню вспышки, связанные с темой, следует часть 2 этого урока
