    Hey everyone

    This is probably not an Andoid specific issue, but since it's happening on a Desire...

    When I try to go to the Facebook or Twitter sites, I get a message saying I have to verify my age with Vodafone.

    Has that ever happened to anyone?

    Not a problem for me with a desire on Vodafone, everything just works!

    I'm on bill pay tho, that might make a difference?

    Also on Bill Pay.
    Might be something with the settings, maybe a wrong APN?
    Currently using the Live! one.

    Didn't change any settings myself, it just worked straight out of the box. Call Voda maybe.

    Good luck!

    I tried removing the proxy and no net based services will work. Even after I put it back in. Does it require a restart?


    Ignore that, it was my cock up!

    Shouldn't need a restart as far as I remember. Others who did it today didn't seem to have a problem either

    Hi Out there can any one help me with removing the annoying red Vodafone banners on a Nokia c3, each time I visit websites I get this red Vodafone header and footer, The problem is that the banner is blocking out my web banner and logo, any help would be great as its really messing me up, don't have the problem on google, or face book , just my website and others.When I contacted Vodafone about it they told me my phone was faulty, after that they informed me that is was the content of my we site, so I contacted Nokia and they inform me that its Vodafone is the problem, can any one help,spen a lot of money on the website design, not to have the name blocked out, and logo lost by a red and white banner top and bottom Thanks
