P.S: I did ask them to reset it, it fixed the problem for barely 5 minutes but as soon as the crew member left, the problem started again.
That's actually disappointing. I'm sure other people must have complained as well, but they still haven't fixed it. They didn't even reply to my email.

I did notify EK, no reply yet. Seeing as RichL also had this problem, it seems like they don't care.

Besides, I get thrown a lot of things, mainly little EK gifts (backpacks, EK coffee mugs etc) from the District Sales Manager in Pakistan.

According to the timetable Seat config 3 & seat config 4 are both F14J76Y427 and have F 1-4 seats nos; J 6-26 seat nos and Y 41-88 so cannot see the difference?

The 4 configs I'm aware of are 2 each of Long Range and Ultra Long Range, as outlined in post #1 of this thread. Rows 41 and 42 and the centre section of 85 to 88 are missing from the Ultra Long Range version.
The other difference is that on the newer planes (A6-EEU on I think), Economy Class has 2 extra seats at Row 80 A and K.

"Actually EK have 4 diferent A380 cabin layout:
ULH Fleet:
F14 C76 Y399 and F14 C76 Y401
LH Fleet:
F14 C76 Y427 and F14 C76 Y429
Soon they will have one more cabin layout when they get the A380 with C + Y only."

A380 maintenance
According to EK source, a couple of A380s are going back into maintenance (e.g. EDA, very soon after its 3C check; it's back and now EDC is in) in Abu Dhabi. Anyone knows what's going on - is this for the doors?

That`s correct; they have some kind of troubles with the doors; I can`t explain exactly what the issue is.
Maintenance work is done in AUH and BOD.
So far EDA and EDB habe already fixed it, EDC is currently in AUH and another one, I don`t know the registration is in BOD
