And in order to check if you have a version which is customized for your country or by your operator, you have to check the CDA.


ok, thanks.

CDA: 162022/3 R6G02

does this tell you anything? if it's an operator firmware, i will be really pissed off since i specified very clearly when i bought it that i want a neutral phone.

@many others:
i do keep the mail app open and in the background and switch between apps. i do use the features of the phone.

with regards to the "return arrow" it isn't just the symbol i'm referring to. that's irrelevant. what i'm referring to is the inconsistency of the location between apps to do the same thing. close, back, done, end, whatever. i've had the phone since last august and it still takes me ages to find what i'm looking for sometimes.

if your mail app launches in 4 seconds, that's nearly half the time it takes me to launch mine. plus, i was quoting that figure because it demonstrates the slowness of my phone. of course i leave it running and switch to it with no delay.

No, it's not branded.

It's GW3.

Maybe a reflash might help...

Just checking. Took me three weeks to figure out I didn't have to "minimize" programs and go back to the start screen every time I changed a program..

It's definitively easier if you just ignore all of that, and call up the task- menu. Most apps either restart at some standard screen when you open them again, if it doesn't end up at the same screen as before anyway.. (and I thought the "go back" thing was really clever.. skipping back to the main view, and then going back to the previous screen you were on, and so on.. I liked that about the message- app - if you launch a new message from the drop- down menu, you go (..almost).. right back to where you were when you click the "back" button..)

Mine takes about three- four seconds, too. Then it's three- four new seconds to start the "new message" screen. I think I timed around six seconds when using the drop- down menu. (well....at least typing is pretty fast).
