@tomchadwin

I am not sure that SEUS just uses the CDA number to determine what firmware to install on your phone. I think it might use the IMEI number too, although I am not sure.

It would be worth a go though . Changing the CDA is pretty easy and completely reversable. See my K750/W800 firmware overview thread for some common UK CDAs, or I believe that www.topsony.com has a pretty comprehensive list of CDAs. I think I made such a list once, but I don't know where it is now

Thanks for the input, Mike. Do I remember reading on here that that is only the case for the W800i, and not for the K750i? That was why K750s flashed to W800 could no longer use SEUS, because SEUS checks the IMEI on W800s, but not on K750s. Or did I misunderstand?

Anyone else have any thoughts on this. I'm a bit reluctant to try this unless I'm a bit more confident I won't trash something in the process...

Thanks

SEUS won't recognize k750 with w800 soft properly, cause IMEI is somwhere in phone's memory and is strictly assigned to phone's model.
There is no known way (for me) to change IMEI.

VODA UK USERS: this allows you to get rid of DRM protection!

Thanks to mwarner for this one. Edit customize.xml, and change and to true. Do a settings reset, and you can now set MP3s/AACs as ringtones!

Thanks, Mike!

I haven't flashed my K750 to W800. It is Voda branded, so I am stuck on fw R1AA. I was wondering if changing the CDA via Far Manager to a generic one will mean that SEUS will update it to R1CA. Any ideas?

OK, so I tried changing the CDA, CDA revision, operator, and language in customize.xml, but even after a full master reset, the phone still says it is the old CDA etc. I wonder what else needs to be done.

I'm not 100% sure, but 99% it 'll update to unbranded sw version. Choose CDA accoring to your country.

Converting from k750 to w800 using this works easy enough (Finally it's free!!!)

I tried to remove the operator logo by tweaking the main firmware file with a hex editor, but the flashing fails. If only there was a version of davinci that could flash firmware, as well as ignore the cid. (without needing a log)

Does anyone know of such a tool? In the mean time I guess I have to wait for the darkmen to include this in sefp.

Thanks kindly by the way!!!
