Want to sign up for a contract with 3 UK but want to know if the Desire HD is locked and branded to the network......
got mine from 3 and is unbranded. =D
I suggest you don't touch 3 even with a barge pole.
No matter how good their contract may be go to someone else. Their reception is pretty bad, have very bad customer service and just wait and try to go to another carrier at the end of your contract.
Basically check the software version, if it's x.xx.405.x then you're unbranded. If it's x.xx.771.x then it's branded
I have to disagree about 3 - I live in rural Hampshire and have always had excellent coverage wherever I travel. Many times on trips away I laugh at friends on Vodafone and O2 who are struggling to get a signal when I have full 3G.
Once at home I lost my 5 bar signal and after a call to their techies they promised to look in to it and a week later called to tell me there had been a problem with my local mast but it was now fixed - and it was.
Yes, their call centre is in India and sometimes the people are difficult to understand but overall no complaints! And I got my DHD with 600 mins, 2.5GB web, 3000 texts, free phone for
Goalc, you need to go to settings, about phone, software information
My DHD is from orange, its unbranded but locked to the network as all phones got from main dealers are, only CPW and other style independent dealers might sell Unlocked handsets.
Its how the networks make there money by forcing you to stick to them with a phone for 12/18/24 months
Since she's a girl I need to be spesific
lol, Classic.
Also, I don't think phones4u are carrier specific.
