I currently have the sony erricsson w910i and on network 3, it has windows messenger on it which is locked to delete as it is a default program which can not be deleted in anyway! I have done the sony erricsson update software thingy, and that does not help, and i have asked my network provider and they said i would have to send the phone off and i can not do with out a phone for a length of time as i need it for work, Is there any intelligent person out there know what i can do to get it off and not muck my phone up lol, all help would be greatful. I need to get the window live messenger off and there is a new one out and i can update the new one until that one is off, any help? thanks. smokeogizmo@hotmail.com | |

If you want to debrand it for free and feel a little tech minded then try this way which i found on topsony and it worked for me
First of all, i dont have any credit for this method. I was helped by several users ( Thanks ! ) and i decided to make a guide to help.
This is an A2 Debrand Tutorial
Software Required:
- A2uploader ( google search )
- Sony Ericsson Update Service ( Comes with the phone CD, or download on SonyEricsson website )
- Notepad ( Comes with Windows ... )
Note: On some Sony Ericsson Models, you have to press 2+5 instead of C.
Recommended Step: (For Users with Phone Warranty)
- You will need to identify your CDA to Debrand again your phone in case you need to take it to Warranty.
- Turn Off your phone and remove the battery and put it again.
- Connect the USB cable to the phone and Press C button.
- Execute A2uploader on your computer, and press the identify button:
- Then plug in your USB cable to the computer, and should appear a text like this:
- Save that number on CDA-Article
- Follow the next steps:
Step 1:
- You need to switch your phone CDA to a Generic CDA, this makes SEUS to update to the debranded firmware.
( for people who want to restore the phone "Recommended Step", in cda number on xml, copy the one you got from A2uploader )

download the above file and unrar itas i have already made the file (which is for western europe uk) for you to use
Step 2:
- Turn Off your phone and remove the battery and put it again.
- Connect the USB cable to the phone and Press C button.
- Execute A2uploader and press the FileSystemTool button:
- Go to tpa/preset/custom directory and drag the customize_upgrade.xml to there (after copy, check if it is there):
- Press Stop button on A2uploader, and Quit
Step 3:
- Turn on the phone, to (in other words) install the new CDA.
- Turn off the phone
Step 4:
- Execute Sony Ericsson Update Service, and press Start button:
- Choose your phone type and click continue: (In picture, im using SE C905 for example)
- Choose your phone model and click continue: (In picture, im using SE C905 for example)
- Follow the program instructions:
- Then will appear your new firmware type, and u press continue: (In picture, im using SE C905 for example, western europe firmware)
- It will pop-up a window for you to confirm, you have to press Yes twice:
- Now you have to w8, for the process to finish:
- Congrats ! You have debranded your Sony Ericsson, disconnect the USB cable from the phone, remove battery and put it again, and turn on the phone. Enjoy

On W910 you have to press 2+5.
The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand... Mediar's Site |
