I recently unlocked my phone unofficially I don't understand the technically of it all. It works fine and accepted the other sim etc but it wont let me update. It says "your device has been altered or something and I need to visit something online". Can I get round this or is their anything you could advise of further problems

    Sounds like it might have been rooted to get the unlock done. This removes some security features (I'm told), this could why you're getting the message.

    Might be worth contacting whoever unlocked it and ask them how they did it?
