@jukurenvenge... no camera zoom???? where did u get that info from.... mine zooms in really well (wen it isnt dying on me!) and has a music creator/dj thingy on it which is quite easy to use and quite good.... u need to check specs more carefully before posting....
but yeh if u dont know many 3G people then it loses some of its appeal but imho its a good fone even without the 3G parts working 100%....

And see, if you brought a V800 now, does everybody else have a 3G phone? No, so you clearly can not use 3G to it's limit as you can with 2.5G phones.
Just unbrand the thing mate, and all will be alright.
No restrictions regarding setting mp3`s as ringtones etc...

hello, just want to ask someone whether they are able to use the V800 with a regular o2 sim. Now my V800 is fixed i am really enjoying it with voda 3g, but i would also like to use my o2 sim. However it does not work, i get the rather annoying "no calls" icon. However i have ful signal strength and o2 - uk is displayed. Tried switching between 3g and gsm but no change. This leads me to believe it is vodafone's problem. I have even tried flashing it with V802se firmware but no change and yes the voda gsm sim works fine. Voda jon, please explain.....

@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.

@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.
