The new Orange Android phone (San Francisco) £99...but a Question??

Went to buy one in store today, they sold out just minutes before. I'll have to order one online now, have got a code for £5 off though, 5offPAYGOct so for £104 its not all bad.

Will it be any better than my current x10 mini pro?
 
Decided my old Tocco Lite was getting a bit long in the tooth so splashed out on a San Fran.

Android is a first for me but absolutely love it so far.

Hardest part of unlocking/rooting/flashing was finding Windows7 x64 drivers lol.

hey mate, can you tell me what the name of the clock and battery widgets you're using are? i rather fancy 'em.
 
I'm pretty sure the clock is just called "Digital Clock Widget" and the battery meter is "BattStatt Free"

Shout if you can't find em mate and I'll try to get direct links.
 
Kazz---If you phone them on the free phone number (which I did the other day) say he/she recomended the SF and they had £30 knocked off for being a Loyal customer, any chance you could do that for me please. Worked for me. Payed £80, as that is with a £10 top up.

To all those who helped me out....Got my problems solved and now on internet etc. Solved.
Thanks.
 
Silly question here: how do you get the back cover off? Do you just lift it up, starting at the base of the phone? Thats what I've tryed but there's a lot of resistance!

There's a hole at the bottom of the device to get a fingernail or thumbnail in. I find that if I get my fingernail in the hole then move my finger to the left or right it pops one or two of the catches and I can peel away the back from the device.
 
Anyone had any luck with getting the £30 discount lately? I've a friend who is on Orange payg but after speaking to numerous salespersons, all they would do is offer to use some of his top extra top up funds and take that off :(.

Ah well, at £109.99 I guess it's still a bargain, might pick one up in store tomorrow.

I ordered mine over the phone yesterday afternoon as follows :-

Salesman 'That'll be £109 please'
Me 'A few people I knew got discount'
Salesman 'You mean the £30 off? No problem, that'll be £79 please.'

Think it's just a case of getting the right person at the right time. :D
 
Can I ask a stupid question, if I unlock my phone does that mean it invalidates my Guarantee? If I then root it and had all the goodies on it, does that invalidate my Guarantee?
