Are there any limitations?
Specifically I'm interested to know if it'll wipe the phone or if everything will be retained. Also is the carrier rom replaced with a stock rom, and if so, how are updates handled then from that point?
It is totally safe to use it just make sure that you check the appropriate boxes when the languages appear (only the ones that your phone has already) I used 78ter to update a Focus S, a L800 and a L900 (twice, for the update one that fixes the tiles) and it worked like a charm.. I would go ahead and do it.. If you do it correctly you should not have problems
