Early Morning z10 shopping & Rogers Branding

**dscsayers** · 02-05-2013, 07:01 AM

Hey all, Just wondering if any early morning Rogers shopping would mind letting me know if they have tarted the phone up with branding? I hope it's not the case... however I have come to expect the unexpected from big red. I really really hope they left it just the way Thor wanted it.

PS. I'm talking about physical branding (ie screen printed on the face)

Just FYI when I played with an unlocked unit from the launch party in NYC if you put in a Tmobile sim it booted up with a Tmobile splash screen. The same unit then booted up with an AT&T sim had an AT&T splash screen!

UK buyers reported that... Splash screens are fine. I just don't want a giant black "Rogers" logo on the face of my new stormtrooper Z

Honestly I don't think they have space on the front to do the same. On the back door maybe. However, that can always be swapped out.

I can't wait to get my hands on my won device, carrier branding or not(as long as it's unlocked)!

I doubt Rogers would go down that road again . When the Bold 9900 came out, Rogers was the only carrier in Canada to put their branding on in. They added the stupid ROGERS name on the front of the phone. Telus & Bell never did that.

Hopefully i do not see a Rogers name or logo anywhere outside the phone!

It's true, back is an easy swap and one that I would 100% do, however I did see a leaked tmobile shot a while back and it looked like they had the device banded on the front, in the upper left corner. I was just wondering is this was the standard. I know that the UK buyers have reported nothing on theirs. Just curious, that's all...

"No Rogers branding on device itself but there is preloaded application on device.
Just picked one up."
