I have an issue with my newly purchased (from ebay) SE w880i where the firmware isn't fully compatible with the 3Mobile services in australia. I asked 3 if they could reflash it but they said they would not touch a phone that isn't theirs.

Does anyone have access to the 3mobile firmware for the SE W880i that I can reflash onto my phone so everything will work again. I had a w880i from 3 and it broke. I miss it. Someone please help

Thankyou so much. Wotan worked perfectly. Found the correct 3mobile ROM and loaded it in no time. Works perfectly. Thankyou so much..

For those interested, the rom you need is W880_CXC1250643_HUTCHISON_AI_R1KG001_RED52.wtm
This will allow the Sony Ericsson W880i to work with 3 Mobile Australia.
