So since there is a variant for each of the firmware revisions we can at least assume that EE were not happy with the software and thus the delay?

damn price, now that nexus 4 is THAT cheap! I do prefer the look of the 820 though.

If you want WinPho and cheap then the HTC 8S is cheap.

Just decided to cancel my EE order doh. Their fault for being so god damn slow about it. 14 day cool off period not even required as they haven't shipped it yet.

Ordered a red one from ze germans. Probably take longer to get a red one but it's the colour I wanted all along. I can stay on Giffgaff too and keep my decent 3G download speed.

They just lost a customer then, looks like I'll be joining the majority and ordering from ze germans.

Cancelled my order as I couldn't face the prospect of a branded locked phone and half the 3G speed.

Incidentally, PayPal's GBP/Euro exchange rate is really bad, use a debit/credit card or some other means to pay.
 
Just waiting for someone who ordered from cyberport.de to say they've received a shipping notification... :o I hope they're coming in soon...

Hi Andy, I'm not very familiar with the world of firmware and sim locking etc, but does this mean you think it's possible to relatively easily unlock a EE lumia 920 from say P4U to work with any network? Thanks :)

Debranding is not unlocking, it is removing those carrier boot up screens and any other bits of tweaked firmware.

There are unlock tools and cables but they tend to be more risky.

Unlocks tend to be done in a few ways:

1. Access to the encryption key, either someone borrows a tool or they work out the key used to generate the unlock code.

2. Brute force, various methods. In some cases the unlock code is held in clear form in ROM and can be read out. Or they rewrite some flash memory containing lock status.
