    you would need to get it rebranded to 3. a local independent shop may be able to do this for you if they can source the 3 firmware and have the correct tools

    most people tend to want to debrand their phones to the manufacturers original software to get rid of the crap that operators load on their phones

    Just save the links to 3 as a couple of bookmarks; that's more or less what the Planet3 button does anyway
