Not likely, without knowing what has happened i guess that he has accidently flashed incorrect files, but we need to see those names

Ok did the master reset, and nothing has changed (apart from losing my contact!
). I used Total Multi Server, no problems with the installation as far as I could tell. I downloaded the file Z800i_R1AB014_ZONE_1_EU-EMEA.V8S
Is that the right file? Voda still thinks that my phone is a z800i because i am unable to view their live portal correctly...no 3G available (apart from video calls).
I have taken photo's of the phone if you want I can upload it for you

It all sounds very strange, what language pack did you use?
Could you post screenshots of the phone showing the live! button and other Voda branding?

I do not think you completely flashed the phone dude. I used Davinci and used the R1014B and all the Voda-crap stuff is gone. Can you flash again?

As i suspect, you only flashing 1 file. SEMC firmware consists of main firmware and of FS. I guess you flashed fs only..........download both file then flash both at the same time with finalization.

Indeed, look at the image below mate, I've highlighted the two types you need to get, just select whichever files are applicable for your situation. Gonna cost you an extra credit I'm afraid but that cannot be helped, you need to flash both files at once.

I have just flashed my Z800 with V800 firmware. All seems to work now.
Managed to buy a wallpaper and news info from Heat. However on full tracks and video downloads it comes up with Download Failed. Might just be becasue there is a problem at the moment

If you mean Vodafone Live then no, there is no 100% fix. Some things will work, others won't. the portal will tell you your phone is not supported or has no UMTS coverage.
Some pages will load, some downloads will work, others won't and never will.
On other networks I don't know
