Does updating the firmware make A2Uploader not to work anymore? I want to still be able to add flash menus. |

I've just updated my Orange UK handset (debranded). I set CDA to 1214-7311 and then used SEUS and I now have Smile Shutter, SMS Conversations, You Tube, Walk Mate and a GPS utility for jogging.
Changes noticed so far:-
* Now the accelerometer function works lightning fast for photos and web browser auto rotation.
* Slightly faster startup.
* Now says connecting using "mobile network" instead of "2g/3g"
* Tells you that SMS validity is set to 1 week when sending a message

@s2bauer-i have sim free unbraned uk handset and instlled the latest firmware.it has sms conversation and all the other apps.
i think it was worth updating as the menu speed seems faster,battery life is better. |

It's a little annoying, I must admit.... And I don't know how to TRICK SEUS
to let you upload UK or Chinese Version.
I beleive, that You must completely deleted your hole firmware, and rewrite that one you specifically want.
It's actually pretty easy. You need three things:
1. A2 Uploader
2. A2 Uploader CDA Generator
3. SEUS
Okay, once you've got these three things you need to generate a CDA for your C905. You do this by going into the CDA file generator and selecting the C905, then typing in the CDA you want to use. You can find lots of CDAs in this thread that will work better. "Generic UK" is probably your best bet at the moment.
So, once you've generated the file, it's going to be saved in the folder you have the CDA Generator program saved in. The file will be called "customized_upgrade.xml". The next step is that you want to actually change the CDA on the phone. To do this, we need to open up A2 Uploader. Once open, click on FILE SYSTEM at the right side. The program will now ask you to connect your phone in the same way SEUS asks; turned off, hold down 'c' and insert the USB. The file system will now load up.
In the A2 Uploader window navigate to "tpa/preset/custom", and then drag and drop the "customized_upgrade.xml" file across to this window. Once you see the file saved in this window, then you can go to SHUTDOWN FILE SYSTEM at the bottom in red. You can then disconnect your phone.
Turn the phone on, and wait for the "please wait" message to fire across. Once completed the CDA is now changed and you can disconnect the phone.
Now connect to SEUS and update as normal. Note that beside C905 at the top it should say the new CDA. Do an update and you will have all the features/(lack of) branding that the firmware you have chosen has.
This isn't really too complicated, having done it a few times I can fire through the process in under 5 minutes. There isn't any risk to your phone either, as if it messes up, you can simply do it again.
Hope this helps anyone confused,
Ryan
Thanks for this guide Ryan. I followed your instructions with cda 1214-7311 and it worked a treat. The phone now has all the features of this firmware and I've got rid of those Orange icons.

Can someone please tell me why my phone says CDF 1214-7311 and everyone is going on about CDA 1214-7311. Is there a difference?
Thanks
