Anyone tell me if a W800i buying direct from O2 online has branded firmware, menus, pictures etc?
Thanks,
Andy. |

OK how do you do that? I want it to be unbranded cos I had major problems with a K500i before.
Thanks,

Well I got mine the other day, the only o2 stuff on the phone is the startup/shutdown shows and screensavers and an o2 theme for the menus. it works with other sims and you can update the firmware from the SE website. |

I looked at SE site and see it is easy to download software. Does this overwrite the O2 stuff or what? Is this the firmware that is talked about having a major bug in it though?

When I updated the firmware the O2 stuff didnt go away, but I dont think the O2 branding makes any difference to the phone.
Oh and i've had no problems with the new firmware. |

My k750i on an O2 200 Anytime contract has no branding on the firmware but it is still locked to O2 sims  |
