I see, then probably I'll have to extract my own FS before updating.

Get the MAIN here and use an older FS (new link!).

You need 7zip to unpack this. It compressed a bit better than rar, which makes for faster up and downloads.

Still havent found any CDA/customize for this firmware as the link in the start post is dead...

Cheers for that. I was looking for it a long time ago. No more SEUS needed now.

Glad I can do something too!

I finally managed to upgrade via tranced's CDA/customize 'trick'

I guess my phone was a bit messed up due to all my flashing. How I made it work:

1- Flashed clean R3BA035 MAIN + WESTERN-EUROPE FS
2- Deleted anything in /tpa/preset/custom
3- Uploaded contents of upgrade_to_R3EA031.rar (link below) to /tpa/preset/custom
4- Boot up phone and did a master reset
5- Started SEUS update and behold, a CENTRAL-EUROPE update is available.

Customize files: http://rapidshare.com/files/201928401/upgrade_to_R3EA031.rar

The only downside to this is that the FS is slightly branded, 2 icons in the main menu and a theme and starup and shutdown animations.

Removing the icons is not possible as the FW does not allow you to use the theme's icons. The option is grayed out no matter what theme I try. Might be easy to fix with a new Customize.xml?

But I guess it wont be long until generic/unbranded FS will be out.

@blerk: if you wait til the night i could let you the fs western-europe i downloaded before. i have the cda for the western-europe region also.

you just need now to flash the MAIN(R3EA031), the old FS and the cda i'd give you in the night(late in the night. i'll be arriving late home today).

@tranced that would be great

The FW seems snappy, just like R3BA035, hopefully it wont crash my phone anymore

On my frankenstein flash (R3EA031 MAIN + R3DA029 FS) the gps can't get a fix anymore, both with a-gps and without. Maybe it's due to the weather but normally it fixes quite fast.

Forget the above, it updated fine after letting it sit outside for a few minutes, not moving it at all. Still slow thought.

I will upload it to my premium account or put it on my server (see sig) tomorrow. Check this space for updates

Edit:
File has been uploaded to a premium rapidshare account, it will not expire or whatever. See my post above for the link and checksums.
