@gbrooks.... i dont know. that is bamboozled me.... i aint bak in work till tuesday now so i cant find out till then... will giv someone a shout tomorrow see if they can shed some light but until then i'd use your voda sim and enjoy all the benefits of vodafone live! powered by 3G like, overpriced ringtones and wallpapers.... really dodgy 24 mobisodes that really dont tell a story.... or football highlights which r a few days behind the matches goin on! All are highly fun and entertaining and at ridiculus prices! so enjoy... or u could download some mp3's at the cost of £1.50 each and then NOT use them as ringtones coz voda dont want to u gain any enjoyment out of them! just your money please! KACHING!

Lol. sorry bout that... ppl. a momentory glitch in the system.... nah i'll find out soon an let u know.... i havent got an idea... sorry.

Speak soon. [addsig]

@voda_jon,

Appreciate the reply. You are a wonderful advertisment for voda, lol ahhh....if your boss could see you know...

Yes i will continue to use voda services but i would like to know why this happening, so maybe your can turn private investigator for a day???

edit:
one point i forgot to mention which kind of points the finger at voda lol. When selecting what network i want int the "select network" menu, net to o2 is a big voda live icon. lol - why it is there i havent a clue.

Hi, i'm new to these forums, and to SE phones, so am hoping for a little help and info on the V800, which i am thinking of buying on vodafone in the uk.

Firstly, what is the difference between the v800 and v800i? Is it worth paying extra for the v800i?

Secondly, i've read people mentioning de-branding the phone. How is this possible, and does it completley change the look/style of the software on the phone?

If its done with a software replacement/flash, does this cause any legal problems with the vodafone contract?

And is there any risk in screwing up the phone and not being able to restore it to normal, as there is when you flash a pc's bios?

I've done a search for these questions, but not come up with anything.

Thanks.

However it does not work, i get the rather annoying "no calls" icon. However i have ful signal strength and o2 - uk is displayed.



This may sound silly but here goes anyway:
1) Are you sure the phone is unlocked
2) Are you sure your O2 sim works at all (no calls barred, no calls redirected etc)

@Vlamm

Yes, i am sure. An orange SIM works perfectly so i am lead to believe it is a problem with o2.

@Voda_jon

What a rebel you are, a very inspiring speech Nothing more to say... legend.

Because the platform sends bogus messages while charging, that is why!!!..But why this change of heart?..We sense a charger connected, oops, we will not shut down after all!!!..*********************** UI BASIC, HOLD YOUR HORSES

I am not using my 512mb duo jus the 32mb one that came with it! i reckon it was that that was killin them! so b aware! my psp now has a nice nearly new 512 card and is happy as a fully charged psp on a train!

Hmmm seems you had unfortunate luck with the 512MB Pro Duo's....i have had mine in the V800 for about 2weeks now and no problems...

I think you should be very carefull mate, for the simple reason that you kinda narrow yourself down quite alot..eg your exchanging of phones..and then you recently bought a psp (probably the only person at voda that has one) you travell to your home in xxx etc etc and the list goes on and on..
If I am not mistaken you have a blog of your rantings hahah you better be very carefull unless you dont really dont give two fooks (as you would call it) about your job.
