the difference is the languages so if you're only interested in using English then either will do

branded phones will have their own product code
euro1,euro2,euro3 etc are generic firmware

there is no specific generic uk. just pick euro1 or euro2 and you will have what you want.
I think they both have english french, german and italian and then the difference is something like one has spanish and portugese and the other dutch and something else
edit: here's a thread with product codes for N95 and N958GB. It lists the languages for the N95 so I'm sure its something similar for the N95 8GB

some people suggest doing that in case the phone hangs and you need to send it in for repair

You cant sort that out now... you lost it while debranding...
Only way would have been if you had done a complete back up of the hadnset and then done the software update and then doing a restore...
Cheers
 ENJOY

Hi, I'm really tempted to debrand my N95 8GB too and update it to the latest firmware. Mine's a Vodafone branded version.
Is there a clear step to step guide anywhere on how to do this? I wouldn't have a clue where to begin re backing up, changing the product code, upgrading, restoring etc etc.
Without my phone I'd be screwed on both a business and personal basis so fear is the only thing that's stopped me up to now! Is it a safe thing to do or would I run the risk of bricking it?! Or is there somewhere I could take it where they'd do it for me?
Thanks in advance! |

Hi Scoobyd
Follow this link for a full guide read it a couple of times and then follow the instructions carefully and all should be fine.

ah well....i havent seen number 2 so not really bothered lol.....If i had backed it up though surely it would cause problems....thats why people were told not to in debranding guides. Also....a brand new sealed phone i wouldn't expect to needing any backing up :s
BTW....do you have that little "Cheers ENJOY " signature on a shortcut or something lol
EDIT: Scooby....i just used the normal N95 guide found here:
http://clear-nokia.blogspot.c[....]okia-n95-debranding-guide.html
But adapted product codes and such for the n95 8 gig
If you PM me your MSN i could give you a kind of live walkthrough while you do it ?
