Cheers eze

Does it have the Vodafone logo on boot up? If not it's unbranded (which I believe Phones4U stock now, CPW definitely do)
Cheers man il check now

The other way is if it's running x.xx.401.x then it's unbranded
my p4u HOX is unbranded and carrier unlocked.

Hi,
I'm on the German O2, but I bought the phone from an eBay guy who had in turn bought it from T-Mobile Germany. The only sign of T-Mobile on the phone is the logo during boot. It is not SIM-locked and neither has any hardware branding.
Should I be able to see the update?
Probably not. It shows the T-Mobile screen when booting which means it is branded.

Thanks for the quick answer! I'll probably root my current version and then install the rooted update from this thread anyway:

It will work as long as it's unlocked.
Optus branded units are network unlocked, so no issues. I've heard a few reports where the optus apps don't kick in if it's never activated on the optus network, so you might not even see the worst of the spam on there.

Yes it will work on AT&T. I just picked mine up today from Optus. Fully unlocked out of the box and running on Telstra (850mhz like AT&T) with no Optus bloatware.

Got this update as well this morning on an unbranded One X on Orange in the UK
Chinese One X No Update
I am wondering why I havn't recieved the OTA update. I have the One X from China but using it on AT&T here i the U.S. Anyone have any idea why I haunt gotten it yet? Any input would be great. Thanks
Why not use the existing thread?? Besides, we all know the unbranded handsets are getting the OTA so carrier is irrelevant
How can I know if my phone is branded by carrier? I received a new phone because old was broken it was on tele2, new one I got from repair shop not the tele2 store. If they gave me unbranded how can now. Can't put another sim cause noone has micro sim to borough.

If you have all sorts of carrier bloatware then you have a branded phone.

Any pre installed apps? carrier start-up/shutdown screen? You can also try downloading the "CID Getter" from Google Play to see what your CID is... if it begins with HTCxxxx then it should be unbranded, try it and let us know
Nothing but I didn't have any on the first one either, and it was bought on tele2 prepaid.

Sounds good so far, try downloading "CID Getter" from Google Play and check your CID, mine is unbranded and my CID is "HTC__001"
P.S Once you open "CID Getter" your CID is shown in red at the top, it's not in the list
It says HTC_032
That would unbranded?

Hello everyone! So recently I got myself a HTC One X. The seller unlocked it from his vodafone carrier so for me it works on any network. The CID is VODAP021. Since the jelly bean update is rolling out and there are firmwares online that I can download, can I download them since my phone is unlocked or do I have to wait for vodafone to roll out their update?
Thanks!
Carrier branded phones have a wait, hang in there. No one knows how long.
