They couldn't fix it, they told me the problem is in the GDFS. The phone indeed came from abroad and was reflashed to support UK networks. Upgrading undid that. I DO have a backup of the GDFS that I did before upgrading, however since it's CID53, I don't have programs that can restore it. UNLESS.. there does happen to be a new version of XS++ that only works in linux that can support CID53 (XS++ 4.1 beta). I have ubuntu-linux on my laptop, so... I wonder if I could restore the GDFS with that to fix it... but I don't know seeing as the GDFS was backed up when my phone was still CID52, would restoring it to the phone completely break it seeing as the phone is CID53 now?

Just take your GDFS on stick to service and they will do it for you (they told you if they can't do it)

Re: k800 problem
I got it back now, and was told they had done their best. Yet when I checked it, I found that they had SOMEHOW managed to downgrade it back to CID52! They must have had one of those expensive boxes to do it. But for some reason it was locked to O2, as any other sim I had said "insert correct sim". Well, fair enough I AM on 02, but what if someone else borrows my phone and needs to use their own non-02 sim? So, I thought what the hell, upgrade it to k810i, this time using k810 cid52 flash files and NOT SE update! Applied the unlock patch via setool and... everything's back to normal. Now I just need to remember not to ever use SE update, and if I ever reflash, use CID52 files and re-unlock it via patch...
