      Add me on twiiter, and i'll guide you off here.

      you install CMR, then just copy the update.zip to the SD card, STILL ZIPPED.
      then you hold the volume down button, when starting up the phone, the complete opposite from when you install CMR,and you hold volume up...

      the phones made in reverse, so the screen is actually upside down, for ease of internal connection, and its software related as to it working normally..lol.

          Seems I was a bit hasty in my last comment because I can't work out how to install the custom rom.
          I downloaded ClockworkMod Recovery and the custom rom.
          I copied CMR to the SD card and also the updated rom (unzipped - is that right?).
          I then restarted the phone with the vol button down as directed, but all I got was a black screen with a box stating FTW. I couldn't do anything from that screen and had to remove the battery again to restart the phone.
          Where did I go wrong?

                                Don't bother with the Orange garbage, just flash it with a custom rom, from modaco, super easy...
                                they also have the original orange rom, if you ever need to flash back and return the phone.

                                The custom R4 job is a lot faster than the Orange one, and Froyo, at this early stage is just blisteringly fast.

                                  Thanks man, I took your advice about the unlocking code. I've done that and I'm back on O2 with my SF.
                                  The prob at the moment is that I can't uninstall the crap Orange apps, but I'll download an uninstaller from the market and try it that way.
                                  I'm amazed at how much more you get compared to the GT540. The GT540 is now £99 at CPW and the SF is £99 at the Orange shop, but the difference shows; I love the huge screen on the SF. And... IT'S LOUD!

                                    empirestate, 25 Oct 2010Dear all, I've debating between the LG GT620 and this phone... moreIt's resistive touchscreen phone so you need to use the tip of your finger or a stylus to type. The default keyboard takes a while to get used to but word recognition makes it more easier. I wouldn't recommend using the default keyboard...but use something like Smart Keyboard Pro or Swype to type things fast!

                                      Dear all, I've debating between the LG GT620 and this phone. My main concern is the keypad of this phone. What has been everyone's experience? is it frustrating to type on the screen?

                                      Thanks in advance.
