Hi all,
I have a Panasonic x60 on Vodafone contract, and one of the things I liked about vodafone in the past is that when used on my old Nokias, it can show the area code I'm currently in under the operator logo if I enable cell info. My girlfriend's sharp gx10i also does this if the cell info is enabled... but for some reason, my panasonic does not show it even if the cell info is enabled :(
Is there any way of getting it enabled on this phone? Or does this phone not support this type of thing?
If I have the SIM in a Nokia (and I have tried it to be sure vodafone still do this), it displays the area code.

It isnt useful in anyway at all, and its not the end of the world if I dont have this, but its just one of those silly things I'd like to have on my phone screen :)

found out how to do it anyway...
needed to go to the cell broadcast option, and add a topic using the number 050 and another topic using the number 100 - it worked then, but it doesnt just show it on the main display under the operator logo like on Nokias... oh no, that would be too simple lol... instead, it flicks between the main screen and a white screen with the area code at the top and the main screen again (and so on and so on) which tbh is useless so I turned cell broadcast off and had done with it.
