I found out that even though a2 uploader was in the exceptions on my antivirus, it was not allowed access to the usb ports. Try shutting down your antivirus

Thanks for your reply. i tried shutting down the AV and rebooted with it turned off.
No luck unfortunately. It's still got the same issues.

just another question. when i plug the USB cable in, does the phone have to be on or off? If the phone has to be on, what mode does it have to be in out of "Phone Mode", "media file transfer", "Print mode".
the phone needs to be turned off.

o.k. i think i've solved the problem. I needed to hold down the 5 instead of the C.
i flashed the phone with the FS file. Now i'm going to do the MAIN. Whats the difference between the 2?
Thanks

FS = File System(it talks by itself)
MAIN = the core of the firmware

O.K. the update finally went well..
I loaded the generic FS and MAIN files, and when i switched the phone on, the phone came up with a message about contacting a service agent. I then downloaded a custom FS file called R8A_W760_CDF_1208_3958__FS__Telstra_Australia. I followed the tutorial and it all worked well.
The only query i have is that it seems to be a telstra file and in the folders there are telstra images etc etc but the phone has no telstra brandings on it which is what i was wanting to get rid of. If the Telstra images are in the file which i loaded onto the phone, why arent they on the phone?
Thanks

you used a generic firmware, but the custom(cda) is from the Tesltra operator.
try to use this:
