It will work fully. I have tested my O2 K750i with my work Vodacrap sim and the wap/gprs works fine too after the provider settings are entered. I put the poor phone out of it's misery though and put the O2 sim back in and deleted the Vodacrap settings - I swear I heard it let out a sigh of relief  |

Probably only when someone works out how to flash it with unbranded firmware using something like Davinci, or TotalMultiServer or whatever they're called. |

Just noticed this thread about the Orange menus after updating the K750i on the update service.

Seems the menus have changed back to the standard SE ones

If you update your phone, they are removed and you just get the normal K750 Generic Icons. They look very nice just lets hope they stay that way!! |

Excellent.
I just had a look on the K750 support page and can't see anything about the Update Service on it except for some driver download?
Does the software for updating the phone come on a CD or something?
I'm gettin mine when my contract runs out at the end of this month. |

Seems it is only available on global support at the moment. If u go to the support page from the K750i product page from the UK the link isn't there. They must be in the process of updating it!!

I can't get it to work....
The update program downloads, then autoruns. It seems to analyse the phone, download some stuff and then it asks me to turn off the phone and reconnect while holding down "c". The phone springs into life, my PC makes the Windows Device Connected sound and absolutely nothing happens.
The update progress bar remains totally static. I have run both modes, automatic and recovery and neither work.
Incidentally, does this update fix the standby crash? I have had my phone for one day and it has crashed twice. |

I've finally got mine to work, it was a bit of a ba$tard though! you need to install the flash drivers and the usb drivers. if you search on this site you can get a link to them, cheers to the guys who posted them! would still be swearing at the phone now without your help! phone is now upgraded anyhoo and no problems noticed so far, will keep you informed. leaving it on tonight will be the big test.

@whodoneit
The new firmware flash seems to put the standard SE icons on Orange branded phones. So no realy need to move to O2. |
