I've used the latest downloadable client that's there today.

22.31

And the customised blue UK firmware appears in the list (not the latest release though)

From the Voda branding to the unbranded handset the improvements is amazing. The spped of the UI is much faster and the icons look nicer. Also settings in the menu that some networks disable are in with the unbranded software. For example Settings -> General -> Update service I'm pretty sure doesn't appear in the Voda branded firmware and it adds the function of updating the firmware direct from SE without having to plug into your PC and spend €10 with DaVinci. I'd say €10 is relatively cheap for the debranding.

Just done mine as a first time 'flasher' - first time I've been that fed up with the voda branding to bother.

Same FW as the above, works great, much less 'clunky' through the menus and stuff, yep worth it.

Now just need the 039 version released..
