Removing Orange Welcome Screen

Holiday

Does anyone know how to remove the Orange welcome screen from a Nokia 6210 which has now been unlocked?

Any help much appreciated.

If I remember correcttly, it's menu, settings, phone settings then welcome note, Basically just type anything in there and when you next resart it will show what you have typed.

Or I think it does haven't had a 6210 for around 3 years so I maybe wrong about the options. The menus are pretty standard so even if I'm wrong, you should be able to chage the welcome screen through phone settings

if youmean the start up logos which is part of the orange branding, you can only remove this by getting the phone reflashed. if done with the latest s/w it will also fix any bugs nokia have found

That is only a temporary fix. When you entered stuff into the welcome note, the phone displays this instead of the orange logo. As soon as you delete that welcome note, the orange logo will re-appear.

drahcir is correct that it is a software flash removes it permanently.

Your other option is to get logomanager, a serial cable for the phone or a infra red adapter. you can then upload your own start up images, ringtones, pictures, manage your tel numbers, etc. It's also really hand to sent texts using this program as you basically type the text on your computer keyboard and then send via the phone

I used to be subscribed to the nokia newsgroups and the chap that produced this software used post on there giving support to people who used his software

A software flash isn't the only way to permanently remove startup (and shutdown) logos. MobiMB also does it. It works with any type of connection - cable, infrared or bluetooth.
