You can use this 3 files and do full flash (this is newest firmware for your phone):

MAIN: W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49
FS: W810_R4EA031_FS_EUROPE_2_RED49 and
CUSTPACK: W810_CDA102555_11_R2A_Generic_EUROPE_2

For flashing use this tutorial - XS++ 3.1 Guide-Flashing, Customizing, Recovering - Top Sony Forums or
Flash your phone using SETool 2 Lite - Top Sony Forums

For unlocking use this tutorial - part 1 - for DB2010 Remove SIM-lock patch generator - Top Sony Forums

If you not sure in only 1 thing - first ask and will help you

[jasmin]

Follow guides inch by inch and like seamonkey said first ask , if you don`t know something.

Have a nice day

[alex-r]

one thing i wanted to know about, was if i wanted to unlock another phone, how would i know which pacth to use?

what i mean is, how would i match it up to the firmware version already on the phone

thanks for all the help, shame the camera doesnt work lol, goes off soon as i select it
