    The only way to get rid of network branding is to flash the firmware with a clean version.

    Can be a right task on some handsets, I don't know enough about the Jet to know how hard.

    What it will do is void your guarantee, so if the phone ever goes wrong your screwed. Mess with the firmware is a big no no where that's concerned. And its the most obvious to check for when they get it back.

    There should be some guides around, try googling and see what comes back. . .
  • Hi, have googled and not had much luck although found a few things, does anyone know if its easy to do myself or am i risking ruining the phone if i get it wrong?? Thanks again
