G700 debranding? |

I am thinking of getting a g700 in mineral grey, but I am guessing it will have chinese firmware. I have looked on da vinci and there is no uk firmware for this phone, there is world firmware, but not sure what I will end up with?
Only reason I ask is that I had a w890i which came from china before and it had chinese games and text imput that I got rid of with a UK firmware update.
Anyone have a g700 and what firmware are you using?

Use Generic World1 it has uk eng and is the first to be updated. |

Thanks for answer dnalevy.
Can you tell me how do I install that?
I've seen http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=174697 but not sure how to do this and if that is what you mean.
Any help on that will be appreciated...

Yes thats the idea. This post outlines the procedure very well:

I assume its the same for the G700 except that you have to change the last part of the CDA value to 1204-3125.
Then update with SEUS and your phone will be debranded.
