Is anyone having problems with "Sky By Mobile" since re-flashing?
I cannot access the tv guide now- using either 3G/GPRS or wi-fi. I get the error message "Wireless request has taken too long, please try again.
I have re-installed this application and I get the same error.
Thanks,
Dave |

I am stuck and need some help. I have been trying to upgrade, but holding the C key and putting the phone in the cradle, nothing is happening. All I see is the instructions page with Back link in the update app.
Few questions.
1. Before I run the updater, do I need to run mRouter/PC suite?
2. In flip mode, should I hold "C" button (Cancel) or "abc" key? I am assuming the C/Cancel button
3. when you connect the phone, should I expect some icon in the window systerm tray to indicate that phone is connected?

Also, when I plugin the phone, I get warning on Windows/XP that "USB device is not recognized". Is this normal?

I get the same error message. SEUS still works fine.

@AbuBasim, thanks.
Finally I got it working. Rebooting my windows machine fixed the problem. It's now downloading the update.
for others,
in flip mode, its the key "2" (ABC). What confused me was "press C button" instruction. I was pressing the C button on the keypad (upper/right corner, big button with C on it ). |

I have upgraded my phone yesterday. The phone is definitely faster with the new FW. Browsing is working much better now. Other than that I did not see many changes... Thumbnail previews in picture viewer are still crappy. The FW overall is worth an upgrade anyway!

some questions related to new fw;
can i press 123 etc. in menus (flip closed) to fast navigate through menu's?
when writing a msg which is 2sms in size, you'll be promt to send or not. if i press not, do i get an option to change the sms? or do i'll have to look it up in drafts manualy?
any improvements with (anonymous) wifi? it just doesn't seem to work, for each hotspot i'll have to make a profile
is it now possible to use the 3g camera to take pictures? (self portrait?) |

@TheGuru:
That's strange. I've always used either the C-key on the flip or the letter 'C' in flip-less mode.

So far i am pleased with this new f/w. The best for me in this f/w is that they have fixed the SMS bug. Now you can see when the sms was sent to you. I have played alot with the phone now and not a single crash so far, NICE

Other than the stability issues, the ONE feature I was expecting in this update is better support for speaker phone and I am really disappointed. Speaker phone option only shows up when you are making a call. That's it.
If I have to switch to speakerphone during the call or when recieving the call, it's the same old xxxxxxxxx again i.e. press the middle button twice thingy.
Why is it so frigging hard for SE to implement these small things that can improve the usability sooooooooooo much ? I am really pisssssssssssssed.
Other than the memory improvement, I don't see any other crap in this update. I can't believe I wasted so many hours on this xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. I am sorry I am really xxxxxxxxx with SE. I don't think they give a ssssssssssssssssttttttttt to our pain. Frigging SE.

TheGuru, i donīt think that is something missed by alot of people...and the improvements are much more than memory management

Maby we dont need the SM Pro anymore? I think that the P990i itself does a great job now. That do you think?
