I was not aware vodafone brands the T230. Are you sure or do you want to remove simlock (unable to use other sims, than those of Vodafone)

Vodafone brands phones for the easier use of vodafone live, i.e. same menu in phone as you see on vlive.

I am not aware of any official SE service centre performing unbranding on request.

Use a dongle/cable and flash the phone with standard firmware.

Thank you all. No problems using other sims. Just that the Vodaphone legend is all over the place. Its on the gprs menu. Flash with firmware would be good. Can i do that with a pc and a normal cable. Or would i need special equipment.

Special equipment? I can't believe that voda would even bother branding a small phone like the T230!

Possibly SETool or Multiserver but I am sure you need a T28 data cable for that, you could try an SE service center, but other than that i don't know, sorry
