    when you say works on O2 do you mean put an O2 sim-card into the phone, or unlock it so that even though its on the 3 network, it using the piggy-back O2 signal at all times??

    YOU Can UNLOCK the LG8120 as i have done this with my phone so i can put any sim inluding o2- the software i have for the Lg8120 is the latest one however many high streets will be doing this for around £10-£15 as the new unlocking software for these phones is now out!

    you just got to shop around - usually markets have the latest version of the unlocking software for 8120.
