Thank you for the info Popolou.
a) In case you missed it, the FLASH PHONE part is in no. 9. 
b) The software did shut down on me, although it's great if it doesn't.
c) I did a master reset just to be sure of a super clean install.
But then again, that's just me being paranoid i guess. Cheers.

Just picked it up, cheers.

also a master reset should rid you of those data accounts!! but you'll still need them to connect any how!
Hope this helps

I know its a pain mate but its the only way to do a clean install, and alot of people here including my self would advise against restoring from a previous backup!!

Totally agree with you on that nanu. Just look at it this way guys, it's better to spend a little more time now and be sure (fingers crossed) of a clean install than having to spend more time later on if you have complications due to poor install. Just my 2 cents. |

NOTHING other than kkclient.exe needs to be installed as it uses the same drivers as SEUS, so, so long as you fully reinstall your pc suite and seus kkclient will run fine!
hope this helps

Hi guys,
For the credits, you do not need to contact kk. All you need to do is just purchase the credits at the kk site and wait for them to email you the login details. Sometimes the email will be cought as spam. So please check your spam folder too. The email should be from gsm info.

Great News! I've just done my w950i and KK worked fine. Had 2 CDA's, went on to SEUS and BOOM! I've bricked it. It just spazzed out at 7% during the update. I've tried running it again atleast 20 times but the same every time. It get's to 7% and then suddenly shows 100% and finished. I unplug the USB cable and the phone then falls into a mobile disco cycle... flashing up for 1 second, then going off, then flashing up again. GREAT!
If anyone has any advice at this point, other than call orange and get a new phone, I would really like to hear it.
Thanks.

I had that happened to my P990 once. It's just that your download/install isn't 100%.
solution:
If you know how to locate the download file from SEUS, delete that and re-update your phone. I think its in the .../db folder. I could be wrong.
What I did. I uninstalled SEUS and removed all files and re-DL and install SEUS . Then I ran SEUS on the phone and it slowly finished 100% (ie: no jumping from 7% to 100% all the sudden).
Hope this helps

UPDATE: Succesfully unbricked. I got another laptop, fresh install of XP, installed SEUS, ran it again, installed all relevant drivers from the W950i cd and the first time it failed. However, I then tried again in a desperate bid and something strange happened. It was running just fine, and the SEUS got to 26% then suddenly went back to 0%. Then it started again and got all the way up to 50% and then suddenly came up as finished with a message saying succesful. Now I've just turned it on and it's working with a wonderful debranded firmware. Genius.
I think it was as you say, SEUS was dropping the connection to the server and thus not getting very far. I made sure there was nothing else using bandwidth when I ran it the final time and even though it didn't reach 100% it is all working, so that's good enough for me.
I've just had a look at the CDA version and I have one line which reads CDA162014/1 R4B02
