You can't flash a phone with SEUS that's cda says W800 when it's IMEI is associated with a K750. SEUS will refuse to update the phone 
The IMEI is stored in GDFS and not flashed by davinci/far et al. SEUS will detect that the IMEI number doesn't match the CDA. If you use the CDA that originally came with the phone, then it will flash your phone back to a K750!!
You can use Hendrix's w800.exe to trick SEUS, but a normal SEUS flash will either restore your phone to OEM, or refuse to update it, but it won't update a W800 that used to be a K750 to the latest W800 software.

Yeah I just tested it out after posting and realised I couldn't.. DAMN!!
That's what I did to flash it, with Hendrixs W800.exe program, so how could I update my W800i firmware? is their a manual way or no way at all? |

you need to use davinci/far method ie: manual. You can use Hendrix's method also, but if it's not working very well for you the Davinci/Far method is more thorough (but you lose all settings etc so it's more painful)
However, if you persist with Hendrix's w800.exe and eventually get it working (knowing you can recover with far helps) then you will be able to update via SEUS
You may have just had a glitch last time you tried with W800.exe, if you try again the process might go through without the problems you had first time.
