Thanks Steve. I bought myself what must be one of the cheapest kitkat handsets going yesterday - an lg l20 from car phone warehouse. £29.95. It'll be crap but it'll do for what I need it for. Absolutely appreciate the offer, though :)

I have a really fucked HTC desire.

Does that make it a HTC undesired?

Bugger...I have a perfectly working original Galaxy Note sitting in a drawer doing nothing.

I could always return it... What would you want for it?

Looking at what they go for on eBay, I suspect it'll be cheap for what it is but too much for me!!

Sorry it's taken a while. That seems more than reasonable (the lg phone has turned out to be complete shite). Is it in good condition etc? Any chance of a piccy? Might just take you up on it...

I'll post up a piccy or two tonight when I get home. As far as I recall without looking at it it's in near perfect condition. I was planning on using it as a kitchen XBMC mini-telly or something, but never got around to it.

Obviously the battery is a good couple of years old, but it still holds reasonable charge.

I will check with the wife first as 'technically' it is her phone...

Oh, and can you let me know if it's network locked and which model it is please :)

(Being awkward. Sorry)

I honestly don't know if it's network locked...it was 'purchased' as part of a contract with Orange (I think), so I suppose it's likely.

I'll see if it's got a model number on it somewhere when I get home tonight.

Sorry bud, didn't get a chance to sort out the photos/model last night as I ended up playing snooker with the old man, and as an aside, I feel very smug about smacking him down with a 58 break in one frame.

In all honesty, it'll be tomorrow evening as it's the monthly cult/crap film night tonight after work.

Stay tuned...

Fuckbeans...sorry man, life got in the way.

Still, if anyone else happens to be interested, photos attached.

Did you establish if it's network locked?

No idea...wouldn't know how to find out.

Well...I know you can try another SIM to find out, but both my and my wife's phone have the micro SIM and the galaxy note takes bigger ones...I simply don't have a sim to try in it.
