    I Originally tried to use the generic firmware on a Vodafone K800i using XS ++, but it would only allow me to use the vodafone firmware when following the tutorial DB2020.exe

    I got round this by using K800_R8BF003_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn to generate a Remove_SIM_lock_K800_R8BF003.vkp using the SIMLockPatchGen.exe.
    Instead of using the unbranding features of XS ++ as described in the tutorial, I just used the 2 files with setool2liteV1.11 to patch the phone.
    Basically XS ++ gave me a flashblock error but the settool2lite software can obviously bypass the DB2020 security on the vodafone K800i. Therefore, I would suggest using this method to unbrand the Vodafone firmware and not the XS ++ method in the tutorials.

    NOTE: I got a warning when I first turned the phone back on that the menu system may have errors ('Errors occur in the menu.ml file. This may render the menu unusable') but I said OK and it's been working fine.

    Also I would still use the XS ++ software to update your EPROM to CID52 & backup the GDFS as described in the tutorial.

    I am still getting the menu.ml error message now and again. Anyone know how to fix?
