The start up page is Reception strength in the top left hand corner with the icon of GPRS and GSM icon above it . Right hand Corner Battery Strength and in the top Middle Network. After had put the phone back together after checking the pins, I put sim card in and got a bar reading in the top corner and the network logo up! lasted about a minute and nothing since. By the way Philzfog I read one of your reply to someone who had put in the wrong GDFS I have done the same think about Two months ago but I had not back up the original so have a mix IMEI so don't know how to fix. Would changing the IMEI to match the one in GDFS work.
