Have you rooted your phone or flashed a different ROM on it?

 

[Phones4uStu]

It's completely unrooted and on the vodafone branded secure firmware!

If you go to Settings > About phone... what do you show under...

Android version?

Baseband version?

Kernel version?

Build number?

If you now go to the dial pad and type in...

what does it say after CSC: ?

I9100OXAKI3, but i just flashed a 2.3.5 version onto it so it's probably different. I would've liked to do it officially but got bored of waiting ;D

Probably just as well that you did upgrade the firmware yourself as it would appear that you were not on the official Vodafone firmware to begin with and would not have received the update via official channels.

I'm guessing that at some stage that the phone had been flashed and not returned to the original, stock, operator branded firmware.

If it was unbranded... how did you expect to get a branded firmware update from Vodafone?

Well some people had said on that post that 2.3.5 was rolling out over branded and unbranded handsets?!
