ok, you need
K500_R2AA003_EU1.K5L (language file)
K500_R2AA003_ZONE_1_.K5S (firmware file)

How to decustomise/remove network branding on SonyEricsson K500(i)

Power Off phone and remove sim card.
Connect T28 Unlocking Serial cable or FTDI USB cable
Open Total Multi-Server Client
Select K500/F500 in the drop down menu
Select Repair/Debrand in the flashing menu
Select correct serial port or virtual serial port where USB cable is installed
Select correct Buad Rate - 921600 for USB cable and 115200 for Serial Cable
The step above must be completed without errors before you start the next step

Select the Normal K5S file for example K500_R2AA003_ZONE_1.K5S
Press Flash
When it says done DO NOT disconnect cable or power on phone
The step above must be completed without errors before you start the next step

Press the X button next to the firmware file so it is no longer selected
Select the Default Language file(K5D) you prefer
Press Flash
Once the steps are completed the phone will be fully working and decustomised

Please note all User Data Will be lost after this operation
