Debranding Pros and Cons
So now that I've used my phone for a week after I've debranded it, I have to say I'm a little disappointed. There are some definite pluses like not having the shutter sound on in silent mode, having video mode default to the high quality video setting, changing the internet key to a shortcut key, and removing general cingular shopping options from the menu. But on the other hand, only one new theme was unlocked and no new ringtones. I guess I thought debranding would turn my W810 into a super phone, really it only fine tunes it.
...
Sorry to hear debranding was a little underwhelming. Did debranding affect handset volume? If you have it, bluetooth headset sound quality improvement?
...
Volume appears overall unaffected.

Now that you have an OEM phone, what options do you have now on what was once the internet shortcut key? Were the general shopping options replaced with something else? Thanks.
...
Yes the general shopping option was taken away. Not sure what replaced it though. The phone defaults to "Messaging" when going into menu, instead of "Cingular shopping" which is nice. The shortcut key brings you to a menu where you can add as many shortcuts as you want.
