Hi All,
This is my first post here and would appreciate a little help.
I recently obtained the network unlcode for my device from Vodafone, however I'm having problems excuting this on the on screan phone keyboard, essentially, when I try to insert the 'W' symbol having pressed the * key four times, instead of the 'w' symbol I get the 'p' symbol again. If anyone can assist me with this very minor problem I would be grateful.
Many thanks in advance

I did about that when I got this device from Vodafone, I asked and they sent me the unlock code along with the instructions on how to unlock it, so I'm assuming that this one is locked to Vodafone.

i'm a little confused as to why vodafone's sending you an unlock code, if you've just boughthe phone from them usually they won't issue em for at least a year in my experience. which sims have you tried? i cant for now figure out how (if at all) to enter a w in the dialer but i'll keep looking.

I just checked a 1 month old Voda supplied N900, it's not SIM locked
