Hi all,
Been reading some of the threads on this forum today and would firstly like to say thanks to everybody who has posted.
i got a N95 yesterday on an Orange 'Pay Monthly' contract. The salesperson told me that i was lucky because the phone was unlocked and therefore didn't have the 'stuff' that Orange load onto the phone.
i have read the posts regarding the latest firmware but before I proceed I would firstly like to know how you can tell if your phone is branded? Is there a menu you can go to to see if its branded?
Any help is appreciated.
regards
Depends on how the operator branded it. It might have an operator-specific startup logo, or a right softkey label. It might also have an operator specific theme or wallpaper. And it might have non-standard, operator-specific apps, etc.
In other words, there are many ways and combinations how an operator could do the branding (different operators want different things, and I haven't seen what Orange does for the devices they buy).
thanks for your reply. There are no 'obvious' brand images/themes/wallpapers on the phone that Orange could have put on the phone.
However, I did successfully change the firmware to the latest version last night. Just followed the prompts and 'hey presto' was done.
Regards
