Hi.

I supposedly have an unlocked W950i phone, I purchased from Carphone Warehouse in the UK.. Its not locked to any network or branded for sure...

Despite this however, there is no update showing on SEUS - anyone in the same boat as me or have any idea what firwmare this is?

I am on firmware:

Phone: CXC162037 R9C001

Bluetooth: CXC162058 R3A01

Organiser: CXC162088 R1B01

CDA: CDA162017/29 R2A02

Anyone able to offer any ideas?

Thanks

Steve McD.

damn, no matter how many times I tried, it still kicking me back to the start screen. I tried to update the W810i and it went smoothly. I tried again w/ the w950i and it still the same old, back to the start screen after detecting.

Phone: CXC162037 R9C001
CDA: 162014/2 R1B01

You are correct sorry, I was tired when I wrote you the message last nite. If you have R9D, stick with it. No real upgrade at the moment.

You would need to change the CDA to use SEUS, as it recognises this, when using the service.

Same firmware as MrPlant too. Bought from OneStopPhoneShop (part of Carphone Warehouse). Unlocked, using my 3 sim now and no network branding at all. No startup / shutdown splash screens and no pre-installed themes or settings. Is this firmware definitely branded?

@jedi

It would appear you have not got EU so no I would think you should not have it. However I have been wrong before lol.

@d

The FW on the phone that you got from CPW is branded, it may not have splash screen or anything like that but the /29 means it is indeed not a generic software. So you will only get FW updates for /29 branded FW. Unlike debranded which come out much more frequently and are usually, /1 /2 etc.

Thanks se-unlock. You don't happen to know who's branding /29 is? I don't think it's o2 because my RSS menus work and I've read other threads on here that say the RSS menu on o2 phones is missing. Thanks D.
