Use Of The Forum!!!

Thanks for the welcome,,Right...First of all please dont mistake me for some newbie user who doesnt know how to use the forum as i have been a member of many other forums for years and know exactly how to use the various FAQ`s and other helpfull areas.The question i asked was specific to my phone`s operator firmware version which is NOT and has NOT been covered in the FAQ or anywhere else in the forum because i DID use the search function after reading the FAQ and no matches were found.The comments you made may have been of use to someone who doesnt know how to navigate forums,sadly not of any use to me.THANKS AND HAVE A NICE DAY.

don't worry about people just like to lecture new people on the rules instead of actually being helpfull. Simply google "debranding nokia n95" and you will get tons of results. You basically have to use one speciality program to rewrite your product code to euro1, and then just use nokia's software updater to reinstall your firmware. It will always take longer for new firmwares to come out for operator specific product codes so i would recommend debranding, but be warned it voids your warrenty and could brick your phone.

Hold on a minute here,sandman666 stated 'i only recently got my N95 and dont know much about it' so letting him know about the FAQ's is a good start in my opinion!

93tid was only doing what he thought was best.
