It's not possible on any SonyEricsson phones in the same way as Nokia's for instance. It requires additional software, hardware and firmware editing.

The easiest thing you can do is design a theme to disguise it as much as possible, but it doesn't remove it.

Actually with the right software and tools it can be done. Unfortunantly I don't have a clue how, but I did come across it once. It involves hex editing the firmware flash, and using special EXPENSIVE software tools and proprietary cable to load it correctly.

You can also kill the camera sound of the K700 EVEN IN LATER FIRMWARE VERSIONS!!

It's not something you would do unless you have access to professional tools and expertise.

@ctsamados - it really is easy. You just use the USB cable that came with the phone and download the software from http://www.davinciteam.com. You need to purchase a 'credit' to complete the process - either from the DaVinci website or from any other site selling them.

Full info is in this thread - http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=95662&start=555

A CDA is a code that tells the SonyEricsson update service which 'branding' to put on your phone - different operators have different CDAs. There are also ones for generic or 'unbranded' phones. The thread has more info on this.

Credits cost between US$8 to US$15 depending on where you buy them.
