yep it will invalidate any warranty held with vodafone and Sony Ericsson as the Warranty clearly states that any tampering of Hardware or Software on the handset by anyone other than a Sony Ericsson Appointed Engineer will invalidate all Warranties held.
Voda's repair company are now aware of the de-branding services on the net and are checking all phones for signs of self done flashing. I.e. total call time being suprisingly low or totally reset to zero! (this can only b done via flashing the phone) and also by looking at the icons being used.
hope this clarifies for u!

All i'm waiting on now is someone to start selling the normal keyboards as the red and green buttons no longer start and stop calls.
Can someone tell me if this is true???

So they'll act like the two buttons already under the screen?
What a pain in the bum, so how do you answer a call and end calls then?

Note quite. They'll revert back to the default SE behaviours.
In other words, the top buttons will be 'soft' buttons (i.e. they change function based on where you are in the menu; when entering a number, left is 'call' and right is 'more', when in a call, right is 'end' and left is 'more', and so on).
Edit: When I say 'top' buttons, I mean the buttons directly under the screen, not the little ones above the screen.
The left and right buttons (the small ones, with green 'make call' and red 'end call' icons on Voda handsets) will then be used for their original purpose: web access and shortcuts, respectively.
The back and clear buttons will remain the same.
Does that make sense?
To my mind, the default SE button layout is - surprise, surprise - far, far better than the Voda layout… For starters, all the buttons are used at all times, and you have access to more functions within fewer presses. Not to mention that you don't need an 'end call' button when you're not in a call…
When will networks learn that branding should be less intrusive, not moreso?
