Default Problem checking if S-OFF or not? ....

Hi!

Tried this: "If you want to help, check if you have S-ON or S-OFF. Turn off the phone, reboot with the volume button held down, and check at the top of the white screen if it says "SHIP S-ON", "SHIP S-OFF" or "ENG S-OFF". S-ON is stock and not helpful, SHIP S-OFF could be useful, the really helpful ones are ENG S-OFF. Please don't post asking if you can help if you have S-ON."

The thing is that my device have a white screen with a red symbol so i can't see if i have S-OFF or nothing... i can't see this white screen the text talks about above... AND, my device does not have Swedish langauge... Isn't it available yet or where does my device come from?

Thanks in advanced!
