Whilst some people believe changing the CDA will allow a disallowed handset to use the SEUS, I disagree based on personal experience. I believe that the SEUS blocks handsets based on the IMEI, so if an IMEI is blocked (for network-branding reasons) then there is no way around it. The CDA only comes into play if the phone is allowed to use the service in the first place. It tells the SEUS which firmware to download, but as I say, the phone needs to be allowed first.
That said, there's no risk in changing the CDA. It'll cost you another credit, but if you want to give it a try, you've got absolutely nothing to lose.
In DaVinci, change the details to:
CDA Number:
CDA102300/21
CDA Revision:
R1A
Model:
S700i
Language Variant Name:
US_1
I hope this helps. Let us know how you get on.

The latest firmware for most unlockers is R3M which is a good improvement over R3K. I strongly advise against using the SEUS as it is not stable.

Asked SE about the possibility of MS Duo Pro support in the s700i through firmware update (as in the p905) and this is the response:
"With regards to your enquiry, there will not be a firmware update for the Sony Ericsson S700i to enable Memory Stick Pro Duo support. Pro Duo support is also down to hardware capabilities of the handset, and the phone does not have this hardware.
There is no such handset as the P905. You are perhaps referring to the P910i, which has Memory Stick Pro Duo support. This handset has the hardware required to do this, as well as the software."
I was sure there is a p905 and it got MS Duo Pro support through a firmware update, or was I wrong?

@dc..as far as
is concerned, the p905 does not officially exist...p905 is a p900 unofficially flashed with the p910 firmware...which enables a p900 to support ms duo pro...

Ah, thanks for clearing that one up.
So this must mean that the p900 has the hardware for MS Duo Pro but was limited by firmware, whereas the S700i just doesn't have the hardware. Oh well.
R3M is a great firmware though, much faster than R3K in the menu's and reading from the card, glad I used Multiserver now.

I haven't noticed any difference. I hoped they allowed us customizing the sms signal with our tones, but it's the same as before.
