font must be in .ttf format.
Either rename the file extension from .ttf to .ltt and overwrite the original font,
or add the .ttf files and then reassign the filenames in fonts.xml.

Change the font sizes in Layout.xml.
Change font size when writing SMS:

edit your layout_mail.xml to this value. in other word, just change the value FontE_16 to FontE_10 in "StringInput" object

see tpa/preset/default/networklist.xml, e.g.:

  <network>
    <country>D</country>
    <mcc>262</mcc>
    <mnc>1</mnc>
 <longname>*change name*</longname>
 <shortname>*change name*</shortname>

    <use3digits>F</use3digits>
  </network>

messaging.ble
MT_CALL.ble
power_down.ble
power_up.ble
REMINDER.ble = for events
SYSTEM.ble = effect for e.g. charging, headset or connecting data cable

copy desired *.pml from tpa/system/multimedia/mp/pl

change SMS storage location from "/smsdata" to "/tpa"
in
/ifs/settings/messaging/pref_store.txt
to have as much space for SMS as for data
PS: there is a patch for it too

to reset phone code to '0000', delete /tpa/preset/default/security_domain_settings.xml
probably only for k850i (which is one of the first A2 phones)
→ use omnius instead or just reflash firmware.

PATCHING METHOD via jjpatcher (useful for DB3350 / CID80/CID81)

- Install 1-jjpatcher.jar, and move it to phone memory
- Run the app until this pop-up screen appear
- Install 2-jjpatcher.jad, and run it until the pop-up screen appears and press yes
- Now turn-off your phone, reinsert the battery and connect it to A2uploader.
- Upload customize_upgrade.xml to tpa/preset/custom
- Turn-on your phone and find phonememory/codeclaw/tpa/preset/system/ams/jab3b4ded00cb34b3cc77a6699f87ac10753fa701.b
Copy it to your PC and drag it onto bpatch.exe to patch it.
- Use A2uploader to copy patched jab3b4ded00cb34b3cc77a6699f87ac10753fa701.b to tpa/preset/system/ams/
- Boot your phone and now, it should be no pop-up screen that say you must patch the jab file.
- Copy your patches to phonememory/other/patches/
- Done, now your phone has been patched
- When the phone restarts jjpatcher will have to be re-run to apply all the patches again.

NOTE: jjpatcher has limits and cannot run all patches! If you have phone upto CID53, brown your firmware.

Copy & Paste when using phonebook:
Go into "Edit contact", and select the Contact
Scroll down to the number you want to cut and paste.
Without selecting it (ie without clicking on the joystick or the yes button) press and hold the * key, and then press the 1 key. When you release both keys, the highlighted number should disappear
Now move to the appropriate entry (eg the "Mob" entry) and press and hold the * key, then press the 3 key. When you release both, the number is pasted into this entry. (1 for cut, 2 for copy and 3 for paste)

If you've cleared your call list you can easily find unsaved dialed no:
Go to Message then Write New & Press yes. Click on Continue. In the menu to let you key in the number to send msg, press the right up key for more menu & you go to the following list.
Phone book, Groups, Sim entries and Unsaved nos.
Select Unsaved nos, there you will see last 10 unsaved number.
Those numbers can't be erased even you clear your entire call list.

    Here are some of hidden smilies for messages. You wont find them in “Add symbol” without patch

    1. :-]
    2. :-[
    3. :-*
    4. [:]

    1. you need change OTP ic to blank one
    2. you need to have special cable ( on vppflash pin should be supplied voltage +7.5v )
    3. you need to have recent setool2 version
    4. go to emptyboard tab, fill imei,select cid, check "write otp" , press unlock.

    operation done as any other operation with phone. 

  Start SeTool 2 lite
  Press Unlock\Repair Button
  Reinsert charged Battery
  Connect phone holding 2+5
  Wait, SeTool 2 lite will repair the EROM, it will flash it back.

- Connect with blueman (linux) to phones network connection. Speed is limited to Bluetooth 2.0 ESR (~2 Mbps), which is ok-ish for browsing with adblocker. Send SMS under linux with gnokii or Gnome Phone Manager (GUI)
- Use mobile or pocket versions of websites for your phone like pocket.dict.cc and http://sonyericsson.org:64/ Youtube 2009 with its settings
- There is runtime patching via jar (jjpatcher+bpatch).
- 'T28' connector is so called because it was the first phone it came with.
- Join patches in single .vkp by adding +0; between patches, which just resets the offset value.
- Modified DSS-20/25 can be used for phones with T28 Connector as serial adapter. (DSS is strictly FTDI232 VID_0403&PID_FC82)
- EMMA (Ericsson Mobile Maintenance Application) was the manufacturers service tool
- Ericsson Equipment List
- Ericsson A2618 Trouble shooting guide
- The radio antenna is the cable of the headphones. The “no headphone” patch will give you no radio signal w/o antenna on fastport.
- OS base is ENEA OSE | - some codenames of unreleased phones
- when resetting phone from menu, you will lose some preinstalled themes, sounds, games, demovideo and more. Backup them first or try to find a download via the links.
- remove ad-links from cust pack or remove from FS afterwards
- there was a challenge in 2010 called “DFRWS2010”
- somebody created a tribute to Music DJ on github
- there are NES, SEns9x (i've modded input bcfg controls), GBA elf emulators - and DOOM. There are even J2ME emulators for more, older consoles. Plus the J2ME-games itself. tons to play with^^
- DB2020 was the last SE platform that allowed raw firmware patching without signed loaders. QA QuickAccess patch available for DB2020 (and some PNX5230 variants?)
Later A2 platforms (DB3150+) have more secure bootloaders, stricter signature enforcement, different memory layouts, paid CID53 unlock (Update: Omnius now free!) and still uncracked CID80+.
- /boot/pcore.cxc is located by address, not by path. It's first file on firmware. Re-uploaded pcore has a different address and phone won't work, because phone won't find pcore.
- Flash wallpaper on W800i possible in extremely buggy R1L002 FW, but not in R1NA002
- there are exclusive models for Japanese market
- Sony Ericsson Xperia X5 Pureness has a transparent screen. they enclosured the LCD without backlight panel and added LED(s?) on edge. It is one of the costly traded, rarest SE phones (besides prototypes)
- Buy µSD-card adapter for MemoryStick (also dual SD); works well with SE phones and Sony PSP (except for PSP recovery with pandora battery due to no real MagicGate MemoryStick); adapter has ASIC inside; needs reformatting in dual µSD-card mode;
- A list of all accessories from Sony Ericsson can be found on english wikipedia. There even was a hybrid smartwatch, RC-car, FM-transmitter, Gameboard, etc.
- see Links modification to find out that MMR-70 FM transmitter (3,68MHz oscillator) and MRC-60 iR-dock use ATmega168V MCU | Convert to USB-C
- mod/solder MPS-Series speaker fastport to USB-A+3.5mm (✅ done) (or even USB-C with analog audio?)
- headset HPM-90 has an OLED screen and HPM-100 has GPS builtin. There is a trrs 3.5mm version of HPM-77/J. MW-600 is the most famous bluetooth-headset from SE. Its successors are SBH-54 and SBH-56 (SBH-20).
- There are fastport to 3.5mm audio jack adapter aftermarket cables
- Buy a Memory Stick Micro (M2) USB cardreader (CCR-70). M2 micro is a shrunk down MemoryStick, they are electrically the same.
- Accelerometer of A1 only has X+Y axis, whereas A2 has X+Y+Z
- LED-flash is dim-able for A1 phones but not for A2.

Project ideas:
- There is no internal/detailed info on MXE-60 or MPF-10 camera flash. Somebody should disassemble, create schematics, use logic analyzer *¿note to self?*
- Create iR-codes list for MRC-60 dock
- decode title info on fastport (of HPM-90) with logic analyzer
- custom PCB for USB-C with bidirectional power (and audio 3.5mm for HPM-77/J or MH-810?) on C901
- M2 to µSD-card PCB conversion with ASIC from disassembled adapter
- PCB with MCU and MOSFET for limiting A2 LED flash brightness; communication over GPIO signal sequence, triggered by TorchC901 elf; hw-integration of unsupported camera flash on fastport/T28
- USB-C plug with analog audio as mod for MPS-Series speaker and HPM-headset remote controls
- USB-C socket conversion on MW600/SBH-54

*#06# to view IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity)

Sony Ericsson like this
XXXXXX XX XXXXXX X
TAC FAC SNR SP

TAC = Type approval code of your sony
Ericsson Mobile
FAC = Final assembly code of your
cellphone
SNR = Serial number of your sony
Ericsson Phone
SP = Spare

This may me regional and varies with network provider. On O2/EPlus/Drillisch try the following ones:

<insert here>

Demo Mode: put the MW600 in pairing mode → keep the play button pressed until the demo mode starts
Test Mode: put the MW600 in pairing mode → press the call button 5 times and continue pressing it several times to cycle through different screens
