@rex
the instructions told me that if ever i encounter the "error in comunicationg with device..." message i should just remove the battery, reinsert it again and turn on the phone. if the phone functions normally then i can start the whole upgrade process again. if the phone doesn't start or doesn't function normally then i should try the recovery mode. in my case i decided not to start the process all over again or g thru the recovery mode. my phone turned on and seemed to function normally. tried it out for a couple of days and i never encountered the problems i had before like not being able to delete recorded movie clips, not being able to receive any file via bluetooth or IR (phone displays "memory full" even though i still have at least 35MB free memory.

I figure out a way to use the SE Update Service with branded phones
"Recovery mode" offers an opportunity to revive non-operational devices only. The reason why the device is non-operational is not relevant.
As long as you have previously tried to use the service you will be able to use recovery mode. When the device is non-operational, the service can not retrieve the CDA-number from the device.Hence, recovery mode can only be used if you have used the service before so the service knows which CDA-number to use for your particular device.
So you just put recovery mode and you download the data from a user that has used the K700 update service before, and you can flash your phone

I bought my K700i unbranded with R2L001 software from start.
And I bought the DSS-25 a couple of days ago so I wanted
to test my new kit so I connected to the update service.
Well aware that I would recieve a messege that I already
had the latest software. To my surprise it continued to install
a new software version.
The version still says R2L001 but I can for sure prove that some
change has been made.
The first thing I noticed was a brighter screen and the second
thing was more obvious. My Sony Ericsson icon had been changed
to a "Play Now" button. A white&green button with a filled green arrow inside.
So what's up with this? Why could I update? And the more important
ones, why no new revision update and what the hell is "Play Now"???
It tries to connect to GPRS if I press it.

Play Now is a service for downloading ringtones. When you choose Play Now the phone connects to a download site where you can listen to ringtones and if you like them you may download them. For a certain cost of course!
I had this icon in my phone when I bought my phone, which is Telia-branded. But now you know what it's for anyway! =)

Can anyone help me with the firmware update?
I can synchronise,but the firmware update wont work.
It sais the synch station cant be found...But it does work tho.
Will this have anything to do with the fact it still contains a lock (vodafone) but it is debranded tho. Orginal SW by SE.
Thnx in advance
