[SOLVED] Debranding a w830c

Hi, I would like to debrand my w830c and get rid of the annoying china mobile icons everywhere

I currently live in New Zealand. Can you guys confirm the files I got to flash are the correct ones?

W830_R1GB001_MAIN_GENERIC_EA_RED52.rar
W830_R1GB001_FS_CS_RED52.rar
HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_101_R5A_GENERIC_APAC.zip

I saw in the firmware section different firmwares for the 830c, are any of them better or no difference?

The current log for my phone is

22:10:54| Baseband ID: 9900
22:10:54| Protocol Version: 3.1
22:10:54| Phone name detected!
22:10:54|
22:10:54| Profiling SEMC phone...
22:10:54| Platform: DB2020
22:10:54| OTP CID: 51
22:10:54| EROM CID: 51
22:10:54| EROM Color: Red
22:10:54| IMEI: 35457901xxxxxx
22:10:54| Phone ID: W830
22:10:54| Region: CMCC
22:10:54| CDA: CDA102721/201 R8A
22:10:54| Firmware Version: R1GB001
22:10:54| EROM: R3A016

Thanks for all your help

Use these files:

W830_R1JC002_MAIN_GENERIC_EA_RED51
W830_R1JC002_FS_EUROPE_4_RED51
HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_13_R5A_GENERIC_EUROPE_4

EUROPE_4 contains the following languages -> English - Finnish - Danish - Icelandic - Swedish - Norwegian

Hmmm my bad, I pasted an old log before i updated the CID to 52

This is a current one,

00:46:58| Baseband ID: 9900
00:46:58| Protocol Version: 3.1
00:46:58| Phone name detected!
00:46:58|
00:46:58| Profiling SEMC phone...
00:46:58| Platform: DB2020
00:46:58| OTP CID: 51
00:46:58| EROM CID: 52
00:46:58| EROM Color: Red
00:46:58| IMEI: 35457901xxxxxx
00:46:58| Phone ID: W830
00:46:58| Region: CMCC
00:46:58| CDA: CDA102721/201 R8A
00:46:58| Firmware Version: R1GB001
00:46:58| EROM: R3A016

Then use the files of CID 52

so the firmware files i listed previously would be fine?

For CID52 use these files:

W830_R1KG001_MAIN_GENERIC_EA_RED52
W830_R1KG001_FS_S_ASIA_LEVAN_RED52_RED52
HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_110_R5A_GENERIC_S_ASIA_LEVAN

S_ASIA_LEVAN contains the following languages -> English - Arabic - Persian-Farsi - French - Hebrew - Russian

What are the differences between all the firmwares? is it just the different languages it has available to it?

Exactly there is a difference - languages.
In alphabetical order for CID52 (oldest -> newest):

R1GB001
R1JC002
R1JG001
R1KG001

I recommend to use R1KG001.
