Welcome to Android Forums :)

I don't know. I'll move this to where you can get help. Thanks for joining! :)
 
That software version says it'd unbranded and unlocked.try to update and you should get the update.
 
Can someone confirm that this version is branded? because i bought it unlocked, i have the htc start screen and i can use every carrier, but i cannot find the update...

Firmware: 2.1-update1
Build: 1.19.161.5 CL171460
Software: 1.19.161.5

thanks in advance
 
is there a possibility to find out if my desire is locked and if it is, to which brand? cause the store where i bought it says it is unbranded, and as i said before, i have the htc start screen and i can use every carrier, but still no update....

go to menu > scenes

if you can see vodafone (or another carrier), then your phone has carrier firmware and not generic firmware.
 
ok, thanks a lot. definitely vodafone. guess i have to contact my lawyer and see what i can get back from this *** shop....
austria, btw
 
any ideas how i can "unlock" my desire? i have no idea whom to ask. there is no vodafone in austria and my carrier does not offer the desire. and i am not sure if a normal "unlock" will work. because i can use every carrier.
does anyone have experineces with this "unlocked and unbranded but still controlled by vodafone"-desires?
