Software
Software update, how?
I have been asked a lot about how to update the software
in Sony phones.
The easiest thing to do is to go to the nearest Sony
dealer and make him do it for you. Just remember that it is
supposed to
be free (a receipt is requiet) so don't let him tell you anything
else!
Service Provider Lock
The Service provider (SP) lock is used to lock the cell phone
to the
SP's SIM card. Once the cell phone is locked to a specific
operator, if one
inserts a SIM card from a different operator the phone will
refuse to accept it!
The cell phone will however accept another SIM card from the
same operator.
