    Has anyone had similiar problem with other mobiles?

    Three themselves couldnt help me.
    The phone came from the US And is fully unlocked.

    I also tried a meteor and vodafone sim and they work perfectly!
    When i do a manual scan it only picks up o2, vodafone and meteor.
    It is a 900/1800 mhz mobile so it should work.

    I wonder what service three are hiding.
    Any ideas anyone?

    Probably have leave three network now :(

    So is meteors, Vodafone and o2 3G coverage, you can't pick up 3G from any network on the sidekick. The phone is just not compatiable.
