Of course this topic was thousands times rolling, but..
I've flashed my phone with indian ICS and in google play my phone is still called "Plus Sony MT27i" as my vendor.
Where are this things hidden in software?
Of course all apps are from Indian software. So it's branded Indian - not debranded.
So, how to REALLY debrand my sola? SI change, or something more?

Hi,
I have a LG P500, from Movistar - Telefonica Spain.
Firmware is v10b which is the last update it can receive through the official LG mobile update tool.
I've seen that there are ways to get other versions and flash them through KDZ updater. For example this last 2.2.2.
For example in another post it appears AVDZBK, which is vodafone.
However these versions belongs to companies different from mine (movistar).
Taking into account that my mobile is not unlocked, could I proceed anyway?
In that case, can I choose any of this FW or there are unlocked ones?
I'm afraid to download a firmware that is also locked but for a foreign company!!!
Thanks a lot...
Don't do it.
It is not adviced to update your phone to a firmware which may not be supported by your service provider... although rooting/custom recovery and using custom ROM fits the same category XD
But nah, there aren't that many new stuff to make you want to upgrade anyway, custom ROMs such as void are a lot better =)
Well the problem is he won't be able to root his phone to install custom recovery.
Hello,
I've been a couple of weeks trying to understand how this all works. I have an Xperia S from Movistar (Spain) unlocked by imei. It is a LT26i serie 1257-5612.
I tryed to update it through SonyMobile, but it just updates de firmware. What about the OS?? I just want to kick out of my device all staff from Movitar and get the virgin ICS ROM running, so what can I do??
Please, I'm just tired of reading and readin thousands of posts with different ways, steps variants and so on. Is there anyone that can tell me what are my choices and exactly what to do?
THANKS!
If your current system does not include anything you need and can't get otherwise, f.e. APN data or something like that, just grab a generic ICS image and flash it with flashtool. For what it's worth, I had the same problem with my german provider and it worked for me.

Hey guys,
im really desperate about this. I searched for 2 hours but could not find a single firmware from german t-mobile. It doesnt matter which one, of ics or gb. I need the branded firmware for a warranty case. I hope you can help me.
not needed relock bootloader then use pc companion
Firstly thank you but could you be a little more detailed. Is the branded rom flashed when i restore with PC Companion.or what am i supposed to do with the tool? I dont have time to test it now.
Thank you for your replies,
alphaboy
The relock botlooader file you will find in xs development topic with all explication then use pc companian .branded firmware usealy mean some apps from your mobile operator

If i restore with PC Companion i will get the stock unbranded firmware, but what i need IS the branded firmware with the startup logo and the apps.
Its about my local t-mobile shop accepting the warranty case. They could deny it if they see the device is unbranded..
Just a ideea relock bootloader and make a bootloop,the rest is up to you to lie them that you have receive an update etc...
