Going to need a bit more information than that! What cable? Is it serial,
USB, DIV or Terminator? In addition, if it is DIV or Terminator you'll be
able to flash the P800 (with difficulty) and the T68, but you won't be able
to flash the K700's.

Yes, there are plenty of people offering logging solutions where you pay a
set amount for each credit. One credit will allow you to either unlock the
phone or flash the firmware. Personally I've never liked logging solutions.

You can flash the firmware yourself using one of the loggers, which will
de-customise the phone and restore the ability to use MP3's as ringtones.

Google this group. I've explained it a couple of times. Flashing does
allow the use of MP3s.

Not on Voda and Orange branded ones you can't.

You sure about the Orange part of that statement?

On the ones I've seen, yes. Mind you, I'd be happy to be corrected if this
has changed.

Some SP branded SE phones have it disabled.
