@spray kid

I think i had the same proplem as you mate, is it when your trying to uinstall SEUS but it just says it installing but nothing is happening? If so download flash player and shockwave from Adobe and you should then notice when your install it that there is a green bar at the bottom.

I have the same problem.
First I have an Orange UK branded W800i / CID36 / CDA102425/10 with firmware R1L0035.
SEUS sees the phone and tells me that the phone is already up to date.
This cannot be as R1L0035 and I still cannot copy files to the phone without problems.

I have since removed all Sony Ericsson software, SEUS, Flash and Shockwave and re-installed everything but no difference.

(Zebedee on Expansys gives a comprehensive howto on getting SEUS to work http://www.expansys.com/forumthread.asp?code=125173&thread=407)

I power off the phone, remove bat, sim and mem card.
Start SEUS
Choose UK (as it's a UK model)
Following instructions insert batt and plugin phone holding the C key.
SEUS recognises the phone and tells me the phone is up to date.

After getting a little mad, I did a little research and found a nice little trick for SEUS that appears to work for a lot of people.
http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtopic=3996

So following their instructions I quit SEUS, returned to the desktop and fired up W800.exe.

Leaving the options as default and pressing Q I unplug the phone and close the utility (again following the instructions).

SEUS detects the phone and shows UPDATE W800i EUROPE 2
SEUS then downloads what I presume to be EUROPE 2 firmware
then it shows me a screen DO NOT TOUCH THE PHONE.
after about 30 seconds I get the screen showing START or EXIT.
>*<<*<* shows the FW version as R1L0035 and my display driver as 0.

Okay, getting somewhere.

I try W800.exe and feed it my IMEI and CDA102425/10 SEUS tells me the phone is already up to date. This proves that W800.EXE appears to work.

I try W800.exe and feed it my IMEI and CDA102430/12 (UK ORANGE)
SEUS Downloads a firrmware and once again I get DO NOT TOUCH THE PHONE.
after about 30 seconds I get the screen showing START or EXIT.
FW version is still R1L0035!

I try W800.exe and feed it my IMEI and CDA102430/10 (UK ORANGE)

after about 30 seconds I get the screen showing START or EXIT.
FW version is still R1L0035!

Has anyone seen this themselves ?

Using DaVinci 13.7 and firmware from TopSony gets me an error Flashing at block 1/266. The firmware on the phone rests unchanged.

I have tried upgrading the firmware using FAR alone but I get an unnerving warning about wiping the EROM. I dont have the guts to do this as I don't want a dead phone.

Can anyone help ?

SEUS and macromedia flash 9 (the current version at the time of writing)

I've completely uninstalled SEUS, JAVA and macromedia.
after reinstalling java, macromedia and SEUS, SEUS told me 'Incompatible Macromedia version' as it could not find flash version 9 (it looks for flash version .
Do the following and SEUS will work again:

regsvr32 c:\\windows\\system32\\macromed\\flash\\flash9.ocx

Still after all that SEUS detects my phone as a W800 but updates are still impossible. Am I to be consigned to the USB bug hell of R1L035 ?? ;-((

Finally got myself sorted: See my poste over here:

The "regsvr32 c:\\\\windows\\\\system32\\\\macromed\\\\flash\\\\flash9.ocx" fix is no longer working, so I'm without SEUS support again. I wouldn't believe I have to use wotan or davinci to update my phone. Shame on SE for using such a bad tool.

Hi all,
SEUS is working. I found this and after unloading WindowBlinds SEUS started *and is still working).

I was getting this message when trying to run seus!

The reason for this was, seus will only work with flashplayer when downloade through IE and i had downloaded an update using firefox which resulted in seus not working!!

Hope this helps anyone with same dilema!
