Desimlocked vs Unbranded - Nokia Lumia 800

I just had my Lumia 800 unsimlocked officialy by my operator (Orange France) this morning, after receiving a code. My phone now works with different micro-sim, as I wanted. I am a beginner with the Lumia so forgive my stupid question please: now that my mobile is desimlocked, do I have to consider it unbranded? Is it the same? Next time I will make a firmware update through Zune, will it detect this fact and install me an "non-branded" rom?
Thanks for your answers.
I love this forum, so usefull:silly:

[Q] Update to Lumia 800 come from Germany or Portugal?

I have a problem regarding the update of my lumia 800. I bought via ebay a lumia 800 from germany but know i am using it in portugal with vodafone. The phone i think is unlocked but is branded to vodafone germany as the product code is the one from germany as it i can see in the nokia webpage support. There i can see that there is an update available for my device "059L701" but via zune its just says that my device as already the latest firmware. Currently i have the 12070 firmware and i don´t know why it won´t update. Can it be because i am using vodafone portugal as carrier and not vodafone germany? And how do i know if the phone is factory unlocked or was unlocked by some sort of firmware?
I have an unlocked United Kingdom Variant phone I am using in the USA on T-Mobile, so similar issue.
Try the disconnect trick on Zune, but make sure both your Cell data and Wifi are both turned OFF, or it won't work.

[Q] What do all those things mean?

Hello XDA,
I've got a Lumia 920 and I'm pretty new to all this flashing thing and I was wondering: How do I know what ROM to flash on my phone? Maybe the question sounds too general, but I will get into details in a moment.
I bought my phone from Romania ( the country I live in ), but the phone came with a Poland ROM. I also want to update to the latest firmware which has the camera fixes and battery improvements, but I don't know what ROM to choose.
I have an unbranded phone ( not locked on any carrier ) and I want it to stay that way. Would any of you be so kind to look on Navifirm at the 1232.5951.1249.xxxx ROMS for the RM-821 Lumia 920 and tell me what ROM to flash to stay unlocked and have access to all Nokia apps from the marketplace? I say this because I had issues on my old Lumia 800 with dissapearing xbox live and not having all nokia apps.
Thank you very much in anticipation and Happy Holidays !
EDIT: I found this ROM: 059R747: RM-821_920_VAR259096_CEE_CV_12491_Black which seems to be the right one for me. Romania is in Central Europe ( provided CEE means Central & Eastern Europe ) so I guess it's ok to flash this on my devide. Wish me luck

Try with Nokia Care Suite if update is not available there for your firmware..u can try another firm from Navifirm+.
If the phone has been unlocked via an unlock code make sure you have that code before flashing a new firmware-- it will re-lock the phone.

[Q] Portugal - Bought Clove.co.uk nokia Lumia 920 and now no 4G! :(

Hello,
I am from Portugal and because I am an early adopter I bought my unbranded nokia Lumia 920 in Clove UK. But now, all portuguese Lumias have 4G enabled in my network (TMN) and I have not. The highest option in definitions is 3G.
Can you please help me on what ROM I should flash unbranded with 4G enabled? I don't understand very much of the ROM names. I have RM-821_eu_euro1_276, with Operator Name 000-GB and configuration ID 118847 (what is this?). I have Portico 1232.5951.1249.1004.
If I flash a ROM will it stop future updates?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Joao
I have just written up a tutorial, which should help you flash a different ROM on the device.

Lumia 920T RM-867

Hi all
i'm new in this forum. i bought a new Lumia 920T with China Mobile, the shame is i can use only the Chinese Marketplace, and i would like to use other, like, english, american or italian. The issue is the only solution is to intstall new firmware, but the other issue is the Lumia 920T is sold only in China by ChinaMobile, and the hardware is a little bit different form a standard Lumia 920. There is a way to install a different firmware form the RM-827?
Download NaviFirm 1.7+ then find ur phone model RM-827, and look if there is any other firmware that u might reflash on ur device. Since 920T is a China exclusive, I don't think u can do much about it
The reason - censoring the Internet in China... Sorry about that
any possibility to install another firmware of another Lumia 920?
