Have finally sorted out the problem with R2AA from multiserver not letting you use the SE US service.

I have used the Davinci Team Server to flash back to R2L which now lets me update online!!

Software also seems to be a lot more reliable than multiserver, no problems with it freezing or crashing halfway.

If anyone is thinking of debranding or has the R2A problem head on over to

http://www.davinciteam.com/

it may cost you but it sure beats Multiserver

you can also update firmware to silence the camera too!!

I can just confirm that the solution you used is working much much better at the moment than Multi Server. At least for k700's. But keep in mind that these are unofficial solutions and that someday you might end in problems. As for all these solutions, they are based on online connection so server may reboot, smart card might not accessible etc. So there will always be percentage of phones that will be killed...

and unlike the multiserver team, you can contact Davinci team in realtime.

If you use ICQ message one of the numbers I messages someone before I flashed the phone to make sure I was doing it right

Extremely helpful they are too, I chatted with Gsmlady whose ICQ is 521212

I used Davinci Server about 2 month and I'm very glad.
Here is a very good support,
I know that they will add DSS very very sooner.

I do have flashed my F500i to a K500i for debrand and it's with R2AA003 (I did it with Multiserver).
But I have that Camera shutter sound.
Can I use this to remove that shutter sound and/or update free the firmware? [addsig]

The site says you can flash F500 to turn off the shutter sound in silent mode.

don't know if you can just flash firmware as the files appear to be different to multiserver - *.bin files.

The way it flashes is similar to Multiservers debrand/repair option.

I Think you'd be better emailing from the Davinci site and ask the developers the question direct

When they got the next FW with that new phonebook search feature and have the camera sound removed from that one I will go for a update.. lets hope they got DSS-25 working soon too.

Can I use the DCU-11 to flash a phone or can I modify it to work?

The site gives instructions how to modify a USB cable to work but its not a DCC 25.

Guess they are working on cracking the chip in it which is why it doesn't work thru mutliserver either

Here's the responce from the question I mentioned above..

Quote:
Unfortunately it's impossible to remove shutter siund for free
becouse algorithm similar as unlocking and not works without server
update firmware also not free.
