Perapostar,
Well as I know of it, it's a weird firmware version!?
Never heard of it yet.
My guess is that your phone is probably not a true F003 from Fly-Ying or a very early firmware version.
** Note that, as I read somewhere, there's supposedly something like 30 Chinese manufacturer making the f003.
But again, it's just what I think I know about it!!
Do a Google search on "E706 + phone" and you will find a similar phone from the f003 but most link are down.
It is probably an old build of the current F003!
I wonder if the firmware are compatible!?
Here's the info that I can get from my unit:
[VERSION]
L003A_MIC3_TY8A_WIFI1_TV1_EN_SM_ML_
V4.04
[BRANCH]
08B L003A_MIC3

About your "off topic" question, Canada is OK, not much to say, it's a great country.
GSM network isn't cheap in Canada. I think it's the country where cellphone service's cost are higher than anywhere else!
(Compared to similar country of course)
I don't know much about the Canada immigration policy and I'm not sure that I want to care that more on a cell phone Forum.
Here's my "off topic" question, What's wrong with Yugoslavia!?
Poor cellular services??
