w910i flashing

[joshwa]

Greetings,

I just acquired an unlocked W910i ( UK 3 Network) and would like to replace the firmware with the original Sony one. The only thing is, I've treid to follow what is being discussed about this subject on a few other sites and I STILL totally bewildered with all the jargon and how this is done....without "bricking" the phone!!!!...this terminology I do understand!!

Let me see if I;ve got this right.
(a) I have to download a piece of software that will interface this W910 to my PC via the USB port.
(b) Download the correct firmware version (how do I choose the correct version) and some other piece of software that will "burn/over-write" the original firmware
If I have this right, could someone be specific with step by step instructions, software requirements and anything else required to accomplish same?, bearing in mind the only flashing I'm aware of often results in being arrested and or serving time in prison.

Thanks
