How to check whether my phone was tweaked by Vodafone?

Is it just from the menu? or how?

Can somebody show me how the menu looks like?

Please help!

p/s: my friends said the phone covers got 2 vodafone's logos.. so i thought the phone inside might have been tweaked also.. but not sure...

The start up of the phone has voda stuff.

startup? means i have to shut down the phone and restart to see?

is there any clearer way?

or is there any screen shot to show?

The Voda-tweaks I know about by looking at a tweaked T610:
1: The startup animation is a vodafone one.
2: The menu icons when u press the "joystick" is changed.
3: Down on the right side of the display there is a button that sais "LIVE" which is supposed so take you to the "Vodafone Live WAPsite".

If I were you I would not buy a Vodafone-tweaked phone... I bought my unlocked T610 at the exact same price as a Vodafone-locked T610, and guess where I bought it... I bought it in a Vodafonestore

If you've already bought a Vodafone-locked _____ (whichever phone u got) then... sorry

1) the startup animation is vodafone one.. but can be changed..

2) if when click joystick, to the main menu, the menu is colorful... as usual... means my phone is not tweaked?

3) the 2 main menu buttons are CALLS and MORE...

4) when clicked into Favourite... above Message... it has a Vodafone Live menu...

So is my phone tweaked or not?? please help..

If your menu looks like this:

and if the right main menu button doesn't say "LIVE" then I'd say you've NOT got a locked (tweaked) phone.

how did you get a non-vodafone phone from a vodafone store???

I got an unlocked unbranded phone on Vodafone network on contract as well

Haha, haven't got a clue. I got it like 2 days before christmas, maybe the seller just wanted to be nice that close to christmas hehe.

Unlocked T610 = 700 SEK (~ 80$)
Blue T610 = 300 SEK (~ 35$)
I got these for free, which means I saved 1000 SEK (~ 110$) .

Just check your firmware if it says R4D.. the D indicates a firmware for Vodaphone. Only in Vodaphone mobile T610 phones the D will show up.
