I suppose this is the latest generic f/w for the W960.

plz answer my question.is it possible to first downlaod firmware and after that update the phone?
Posted by myth®
Yes, it is possible. If someone has taken, zipped and shared the firmware folder somewhere on the internet, you can download it and put the folder in its place manually, but you don't have to be worried about your internet connection during the update process, because this is the last stage where SEUS no longer needs an active internet connection.
The first stage is initialization with SEUS servers, second one is the firmware download and the third and last one is the update process.
And yes, XS++ works fine under Vista.

why are you worried about a power failure then ?
initialization + download (@ 1 Mbps) + update takes around 35-40 mins, so any modern laptop will provide you enough juice to perform even the entire update process from battery.
btw can u confirm that this is the latest firmware?

No, R6E29 is an old one (two before the latest > R6G04).
and i need to debrand to generic world 1 to install this firmware?
If you have a localized or branded CDA, debranding to GW1 is always recommended, since GW is a 'clean' version of the firmware.
since i reinstalled my SEUS ,wen i start it, it says application was unable to connect to server and will shut down
Either there is a maintenance or temporary problem with SE servers or you need to check your firewall permissions.

thanks for the answers.my laptop sucks.my main computer is a desktop and that y i am worried.imma debrand the phone wen i decide to update probably in a week or so wen i get dsl.
wht improvements can i expect wen i upgrade my phone?currently its vodaphone branded r9j005.theres alot of stuff that ive been imagining would b fixed by a firmware update.one of the stupidest things is that the volume keys control volume everywhere on the phone except in the camera(thanksfully).volume keys shud b used to zoom in the picture gallery for example.cuz zooming is so annoying u have to press that smaaaallll box to enable zoom.
can u name the main improvements?

To be honest not much changes between firmware but stability and speed. I can't remember any new functions or changed buttons in any firmwrae for the W960i.
More importanylt htough, to those saying it's the last firmware, how do you know this?? I don't understand why they'd do that this phone's not very old at all!
Posted by Punkid
wht bout zoom functionality.is it possible to zoom in the new firmware using the volume keys in gallery?
