Cool deal...i bought that package, cost about $37 USD

Not a bad deal i suppose as there are no SE Centers anywhere close to my area that have the ability to flash my phone...and my Firmware is R2A031 (which i believe is like the original Firmware).

From what i have read though am i correct to assume that all the data on the phone once i debrand it will be lost? (ringtones, pictures, ect)

yes and no. Any games, pictures, sounds etc that you have put on the phone will be lost. So will your contacts, so backup to the sim first. The software update does, however, install a default set of games, sounds and pictures, so your phone will not be 'naked'

@ iamcrunchie

This is not between you and I so I don't want to make it personal... but what I said in previous post is true... who doesn't believe me can waste another credit... I don't mind... But just flashing again under NORMAL page flash will still not allow you to use SE US... (We are talking about latest 1.30 version). I tried and I still couldn't use SE US. Who doesn't believe may try...

Take care

EDIT: Maybe it has something to do with debranding DEFAULT LANGUAGE you use. I don't have any more phones at the moment to try, but maybe if you use different DEFAULT LANGUAGE (I am using EMEA2 and I can not use online update) fe. EU1 you will be able to Online uPdate. Of course you'll have to reflash it with your own language and customization later so it might work (you need 2 credits)... But didn't try it so don't ask about it.

Well i've my cable but doesn't work

I've always the " press on etc... " I press "on" the phone switch on and I can listen a whispering ding ding ding...then....nothing happen ?

Why I've reboot my pc and removed the battery 2 times....the process percent still on 0%..... I'm doing something wrong ?

I'll charge mote times the battery and retry later...if someone has a idea...

try this (at your own risk):

Turn off the phone... take out the battery and sim card... plug the cable in... DON'T PUT THE BATTERY BACK YET Open program... Write user and password, xhoose files and press flash... When the program gives you message:" Press on in the phone" NOW PUT THE BATTERY BACK IN. It should start now...

Ok sorry... but you asked right after my answer to previous post so I wasn't sure. Why all the funky smileys?

Yes it works with Z1010 and T28 unlocking cable.

nah it is just the shit when your cable doesn't want to start flashing/unlockin the phone with press ON in the phone... never mind... sorry.

As I said You can use Total Server to unlock, flash Z1010 with T28 unlocking cable. The latest version for Z1010 there is R1H I guess
