hi
it is not possible. the w302 is S2.
www.totalgsm.org offers the flashing service for these phones.

Worked like a charm on my girlsfriends W890i, however I had a few problems with a configuration error, but that was solved by installing a customized firmware. This could have been a bit more clear in the tutorial I belive...
Something like a to-do list would be cool...!
WHAT TO DO BEFORE ANYTHING
- download A2 File Access
- download the correct firmware
- download customized firmware
and then begin... Luckily I don't panic that quick, otherwise I'd just have thrown to phone out of the window! 
Besides that... great tutorial... again, worked like a charm!

I keep wavering between updating, and not updating my G705 to the latest firmware with SEUS because it will upgrade to CID53.
Is the new A2Uploader fully compatible with 53? |

It's not fully compatible, i'd say it's 90% compatible:

@Tommen: it'll depend on the customo you've used to finalize the phone.

Hello tranced!
I've reading your post, and getting more and more confident about flashing my g705.
Objective 1:
- Change CDA and SEUS my g705 to WESTERN-EUROPE version
- if above fails, flash MAIN and FS downed from topsony
Some things:
a) I've used A2 uploader and it reports my g705 as a CID0052 (not 53!!!)
b) CDA is 1208-4726 R1BA038 which was updated by SEUS to the latest firmware R1EA033
c) I googled and downed G705_R1DE001_MAIN_GENERIC_KM_RED53 and G705_R1DE001_FS_WESTERN-EUROPE_RED53
d) I googled and found out about two different CDAs for WESTERN-EUROPE 1217-0536 and 1209-4774
Questions:
1) If I just change the CDA via Customize_upgrade.xml will SEUS update the firmware, since I already have the latest?
2) If I just flash the thing with the MAIS/FS combination will it work on my CID52 phone?
Thanks in advance
Cheers

hi
uploading a new cda to your phone is very easy so you wont fail in this . well, in case you do, then you wont have any problem.
as you said your phone is CID52, you cannot use a CID53 MAIN or FS

Two things...
1) I found out that 1217-0536 stands for Customized_Germany... will I end up with a german phone? and 1209-4774 is also used for a c510 model... now I'm worried!!!
2) back to googling for CID52 firmwares,... anyone got a hint/clue?
Thanks in advance.

1- SEUS will read the CDA numbers and your phone. So, it'll update your phone according to the CDA numbers. You will need a generic CDA for your region(Portugal, right?). Here you will find a list.
2- 4shared.com is your friend.
