sim contacts no, files on mem stick no. Infact usually you remove the sim card and mem card from the phone anyway. When I did a seus update, my mem card became corrupted and I had to reofrmat it - so I suggest removing the mem card when doing any kind of flashing.

I don't know, but I am on the same firmware as you and I haven't got this problem.

Could someone tell me what disk2phone is and where to get it?

you can get it from http://www.sonyericsson.com/support

just select w800i and goto software downloads. you will get the drivers for ur phone in the same place.

Wkd (well done!)- No problemo by the way .

As mentioned b4, the first attempt i had looked like it worked but it didnt (my k750i was still the same but only the walkman player had been integrated, so it was stuck between the two models)- so i had to do it a 2nd time and it did it properly (unbranded it, brought up W800i icons etc). I find that with many users FW updates using clients other than SEUS can be very unreliable and unpredictable...

As much as i originally didn't like the W800i housing- i've finally made my decision to order one. It's cuz the K750i has gone down in price and loadza peeps have it now (so i have to have the need to be different!!! Ennit sad...). Plus i figured my phone is practically a W800i anyways so i might as well complete the transition. I guess somewhere inside of me likes the white and the orange!

Hi
I'm a new user. I bought the k750 about 1 month ago and it's wonderful. Now i'm thinking of transform it in w800, because i listen a lot of music and i would like the flight mode (i'm buying the original w800 headphones too)
But I have some questions.

- After debranding my phone, can i upgrade it with the SE Update Service? will it be recognized like k750 or w800?

- Are there any screenshots of the media player in w800 and its caratteristics?

I hope you can reply to me!

rebirth.

It depends if you have flashed with the correct CID number (or something or other) that reflects your operator and the firmware version. Some have reported that after flashing a k750i with W800i firmware they are able to use SEUS (i've yet to try as there is not new firmware version on SEUS for me to update to currently).
