I think you may have to send your phone to a Nokia service centre to reflash the firmware. Your E-61 has a customised firmware not generic. Doing a hard reset will reinstall the firmware that is already in the ROM.

You can use NSS to change your product code to the manufacturer product code (Nokia) and then use the NSU to install the new OS. This would take away the italian stuff and use nokia's OS just as if it you purchased the phone from Nokia
