I can live with only GSM at home. That is fair enough. Thick walls etc. What I couldn't live with was no connectivity at all.

Then maybe our problems are different. I had full signal strength on both 3G and GSM but no connectivity. If I switched to GSM only, I still had full signal strength, but was able to make calls. I can't see that this is a problem with the phone (especially since it is only at home I have this.) Whenever Voda decides to have a look at the mast I will post whatever they find out.

I am only speculating based on my experience but the problem with my old phone seemed to be that it could nto connect to the GSM signal even when it was present. When 3G was available there was no big problems except even then it was patchy and woudl drop calls occasionally.
I could select GSM only from the menu but it didn't seem to actually do anything as in 3 g areas I could still connect but again as soon as 3g dropped off I couldn't access the network.
It does indeed sound like we had different issues.

I got a call today from Vodafone asking if I had noticed any change in connectivity. As I had permenently switched 3G off I said no, but would try it when I got home. And to my surprise it actually worked! My phone now has both 3G and GSM! Voda got their sh*ite together and fixed the antenna and now it works.

I must admit I just turn off 3g these days. Battery life is better that way and I dont' get interupted calls or the inability to make calls. I might turn it back on if any services every come out worth using or if any of my friends/family pick up a 3g phone too.

I have near zero use of 3G, I bought the V800 because I think its a great phone. It just pisses me off when I buy something and it doesn't work...

Have been using my V800 (now Z800 flashed) for about 6 weeks, however for the past two days I am getting No Network Access msgs, or three beeps when making calls, or people can't hear me
Is it likely the phone suddenly went faulty (not dropped, exposed to water etc)? Or Vodafone Ireland are having problems (they deny)
SIM works fine in T610 phone

Voda gave me the run around for a looooong time before they admitted that my area had network issues and sent a tech to fix it. Does it happen in the same place every time or does it change place?

Multiple areas, was working fine for 6 weeks until Sunday!
My SIM works fine in Motorola A920, plus SIM from my Vodafone 3G card also displays No Network Access when in my V800
