Let me see if I can clear it up for you.
Firstly, the CDA is nothing to do with unlocking. DaVinci doesn't support unlocking yet.
The CDA is a number that identifies your phone to the Sony Ericsson Update Service and simply tells it which firmware to download. You'll want to change this if you intend to use the SEUS in the future to update, otherwise it will download Vodafone firmware and your phone will effectively become rebranded.
I suppose you're right about my post; I did make it sound like my handset is unlocked, but it's not. It's like a SIM-free handset but still locked. I will unlock it when DaVinci supports it though, then it will be truly "SIM-free".

@Sebby,
Got a question for you. I flashed my v800 to a z800 and did not think to change the CDA number. You mentioned that it will go back to Vodafone branding if I use the SEUS. Do you happen to know the proper CDA for a z800i? I might want to buy a credit and change mine so that I can use the SEUS at a later date

Under the CDA, it should say something else (beginning with "cxc") then under that is what I need to know.

That's the one.
CDA102371/13 should do you nicely.

So, should I go back to Da Vinci, buy a credit, change the CDA and once this is done, will I be able to use the SEUS without having to worry about Vodacrap coming back?
