    samfirmware.com have these listed in the non-smartphone - S series - Europe section

    S5260XXKA7 January 2011

    S5260XXKC3 March 2011

    S5260XXKD1 April 2011

    You should also be able to find drivers, flash program & tut

    All three I've listed are UK English, any firmware listed with XX after the phone model is UK English. There are other versions available, but I reccomend XX only.

    You will need to join the site before you can download. It's free & there are no other requirements to download what you want.

      I've got the S5260XXKD1 firmware off there, but sadly can't find a 'How to'
      The flash program I have is:- MultiLoader V5.67.

            Have you checked your provider setting for Internet/MMS?

              no its trial and error till you find one with uk widgets. im running a german which has the uk language but all the widgets are uk but i did try a few others with russian widgets...

              normally when doing multi loading it will say what file it is rather than picking a whole package drop........bye dk

                ok thanks the widgets are DTG, Telegraaf,NU.nl, Buienradar, Bol.com, Hyves, RTL News, OV-Info, RTL Gemist, RTL GP, RTL BLVRD.

                None of which are of any use to me and are locked.:-(
                Only annoying thing is I've just set up everything on the phone how I want it, contact pictures etc.

                I think its the CSC file I need to be english


                My SW VER = S5260XXKD1
                CSC VER = S5260XENKD1

                    Did you flash all files?

                    For example this is for Eastern European S5620:

                    Boot file ---> BOOTFILES
                    Amss ---> amss.bin
                    Apps ---> apps_compressed.bin
                    Rsrc1 ---> Rsrc_S5620_Open_Europe_Slav.rc1
                    Rsrc2 ----> Rsrc2_S5620(Low).rc2
                    Factory FS ---> FactoryFs_S5620_Open_Europe_SEB.ffs
                    CSC ----> CSC_S5620_Open_Europe_Slav.csc
                    SHP APP ---> ShpApp.app
                    PFS ---> PFS_S5620_Open_Europe_Slav_SEB.pfs


                    The CSC file is important to get correct! Plus flashing with ALL 7 files is important!

                    As RayJay pointed out XX files will have English or XA files as these are both for the UK region.

                    Your CSC file is S5260XENKD1 and XE are for the old Eastern Block countries like Latvia etc.

                    Another place to find firmware is http://www.sammobile.com you may have to register (free) first!

                      I did indeed flash all files.
                      The CSC_S5620_Open_Europe_Slav.csc
                      was _XEN.csc within the
                      S5260XXKD1 firm ware and I got that from samfirmware.com so although it does support English language the widgets are not.

                      So is it xeu.csc I need as I can't it in any of the firmware on samfirmware.

                      Samfirmware & sammobile are the same site?

                        Samfirmware & sammobile are the same site?

                        Not sure if they are the same site?

                        The Open_Europe_Slav.csc file is your problem!

                        Try this one: Free Online Storage & File Upload with FileServe

                        That should be OK for your needs!

                          Open_Europe_XEN.csc is what I have (Netherlands)


                          Could I just re-flash the .csc file with the one from your link I'm downloading or would I need to completely reflash the whole phone?

                            The link is for S5620 not the S5260 that I need or will the csc file be compatible?

                              It's not recommended to flash single files!
