The Sony Ericsson K550 is a mid range mobile phone. Announced on February 6 2007, it was the successor of the K510 model and integrates a 2 megapixel CMOS camera sensor with two-LED photolight and an active lens cover for the camera lens protection and easy camera activation when taking pictures from the phone. The phone has a variant in the form of K550im which was the first i-mode enabled phone bearing the Cybershot logo trying to build into the success of the Sony Ericsson K610im model. The phone was one of the first Sony Ericsson models in which you can find the Fast-Port system connector at the left side instead on the typical bottom part.

[edit] Modifications
Just like its fellow Sony Ericsson models since the K750/W800/W810, the K550 can be modified in various ways (such as modifying its camera driver to improve camera image quality or acoustic driver for better sound reproduction) Tutorial on changing the Camdriver . These two modifications are easily the most popular modifications available for the K550 user as well as other Sony Ericsson model users. The phone menu can also be modified, enabling changing menu icons, layouts, and even the media player background. These modifications are made possible by using programs such as FAR or XS++. A Sony Ericsson W610 housing fits the K550, since hardware-wise the two are identical. It is also possible to flash the K550 with W610 firmware which features Walkman 2.0 and flash menus pre-installed Tutorial on flashing a K550 to W610 Another tutorial for the same purpose
