I dont know if this has been posted already but is it possible to replace the files in the "..Update Service\software-data" folder during the update with different firmwares but with renamed filenames.
ie to downgrade, use the update service and at the certain point, replace the files in the folder with older firmware files? or say replace the k750i firmware files with w800i firmware files. Will this fool SEUS into updating your phone with the firmware you give it as long as the filenames are the same.

if it dont work and the phone dies can it be fixed using something like daVinci? also can someone upload update files that they have in their folder from using SEUS. ie a W800 one and maybe an older K750 one to try a downgrade

I can recall various people trying such techniques, not only on the K750/W800 but also K700 and p series too.
I don't recall ever hearing of it being done successfuly.
