If in the hidden menu for phone name it says C702, then you will be able to update your software, but not with SEUS. You will need EMMA, or some box to do that. If the model name is something different than you will need EMMA or probably more likely flashgordon, but these are very hard to find... |

Well there is another problem... There are BLUE, BROWN and RED phones... I mean the EROM and CID color of the phone...
BLUE - phones that are still not completed by the manufacturer (:se: in this case)... These BLUE phone might now be complete...
BROWN - for publicity known as prototypes, are phones which are complete and are in experimental state for bugs to be found and fixed...
RED - Phones ready for users and normal usage...
SEUS only supports RED phones, which is normal... Once a phone is sent to the market it should be RED and can be updated with SEUS... So if you C702 is BROWN phone (as you said it was a prototype) it cannot be updates with SEUS until it is converted to RED... Conversion to RED includes flashing the phone's EROM which still cannot be done for free...
The only option left is to ask online flashing clients like tatlgsm or wotan if they have prototypes (BROWN) phones flashing supprt for DB3150... They might have the solution for your problem...

Hmm you need to reflash your phone's EROM... See if the client you have credits on support EROM flashing for your phone model. If you reflash your phone erom with RED one you should be fine then.
