I know how to debrand but do i need an orange sim card in the phone to debrand, is this phone able to be unlocked via DaVinci?
Thanks.

Flashed my phone with French generic 31 (I had apac-anz when I got BROD last night) because it takes less space due to the fact it only has 2 languages (Eng & Fre). I also took out the m2 card before flashing and have not inserted it in yet, going by the theory that BROD may somehow be cause by the card.
Since the flash last night, I found the phone to be faster, noticebly faster. From loading at start up, to scrolling through phone book, to browser loading, to scrolling through menus, I mean everything. I have no idea idea why but it can only be 2 things: either the FW is smaller and more efficient (its about 7-8 mb less than the apac-anz I had) or this memory card is the culprit, I think the phone needs to access the card all the time and that can slow it down as well. Its the same phone using the same davinci flash so there is no other viable explanation I can think of.
I will post updates if anything happens. I am almost starting to like my phone again and a bit afraid to insert the card to even copy everything to my computer. If it is the m2 card then it's sad that SE can't figure it out, it's their own card.
Let me ask this question, those that had BROD, which card were you using, the one that came with the phone or was the card upgraded?

@buntoo
The only solution is REFLASHING the whole firmware. You must rely on SE Service Centre to do that. Otherwise, use
www.kulankendi.com to do it at home. There is NO other way. And yes, ALL data is totally erased after reflashing. Sorry for this notorious BROD. Hope you can revive the phone.
