Is there anybody out there in EB land that can delete the Orange settings from a phone and put the Vodafone settings back on to the phone.

The phone was a 'hand me up' from whippet :) ........and has been unblocked :) .....its just its got the Orange settings still on there and it defaults back to Orange. :(

Whippet do you want all the phone numbers that are on the phone or can I delete them? :reading

Yeah tried that, phoned Nokia and they said Carphone Warehouse could do it, so I phoned Carphone Warehouse and they said that it is illegal to change it from Orange to Vodafone for some reason.

Yes Cres.............I've also done that as well, but I want to get rid of the Orange settings, I have deleted them, but the phone keeps running a back up and restoring the poxy thing.................so what I want is to erase the Orange settings completely.....but then I will have to run the Vodafone settings on, to make the phone work

Hmm.. only thing that might work then is if you've got a master clear feature on the phone. (take it back to zilch) and start from scratch.... but then you'll need the 4 digit pin to do the master clear, which you probly ain't got as it was a hand me up....
All i can thing of mate..

You wont be able to get the Wap working. That'll always stay on orange.
