You may find you still have signal problems when the phone is unlocked. The direct unlock solution is best. This will give you an extra menu in the phone settings for the network mode, this must be changed from Dual to GSM for the phone to work properly on 2g networks

there is nothing special about the network "3".
it is a 3g network, that means it supports 3g services (high-speed connection and video streaming, for example), but it is still a gsm network, and 7600 is a gsm phone, that means you can use the o2 sim with it without any problem.

the reason for manually entering the network code, is that it is a new network, and so it is not yet added to the calculators lists.

3 is actually a WCDMA network (commonly called 3G), it does not have any of its own GSM network hardware, but has a "roaming" agreement with O2 in the UK.

the 7600 is a dual mode WCDMA/GSM phone so you would expect it to operate normally with a GSM SIM, and it does for any supplied with the "full" version. however, 3 in the UK sell a version with one menu item removed, that is to switch the phone from dual WCDMA/GSM to GSM only. so even if you unlock the phone and put in the GSM SIM card, this has the effect of the phone dropping the GSM signal whenever it finds a 3G signal, and as you have only a GSM SIM card in the phone, it will not "pick up" the 3G signal.

basically don't bother unlocking a 3 supplied 7600 to use a GSM SIM if you live in an area with WCDMA (3G) coverage, it will not work with the GSM SIM - this applies to most of the major urban areas in the UK at present

if the 7600 was supplied by one of the GSM operators in the UK (O2, Orange, Vodafone) then this does not apply
