@UncleBob. If your firmware is R1A044 AFTER the update then it hasn't worked - it should be R1J002. R1A044 is the original firmware

Sorry, I just noticed my typo. It was R1A044 and its now R1J002 after I did the update.
I was busy playing with the phone while typing my original post and did not proof read before submitting.
Thats what excitement does to you...
PS. This update really did my head in as I could not get the bloody thing to work, thats when I decided to RTFM and saw a post with a link to the Flash USB driver.
To think, like a schmuck I held the c button in all the time, although it jumped quickly from 60-ish % to complete...

i dont just think its the operators.
I think the servers are all having a bad time of trying to supplys us with the updates. lol
The only thing i can suggest, is delete all you cookies and restart you pc. Try again. you never know |

sim card makes no diff. as with other SE phones it uses the CDA to determine how it needs to be updated
mine also won't update and I get the same message even though mine is sim free and unbranded
my log shows...

It does make a change tho that Orange / voda and other operators get there updates first ?
Could this mean that the operators demand more for there customers?
masseur col dyou also update the main page with the new firmware??
Thanks Daz

@ Phantom & djsaad1:
I am in the USA too and I use Cingular. But I bought my phone from Netherlands and it has EUROPE_3 right now and couple of other members mentioned that the EU_3 update was not out yet.
Where did you guys buy your phones & what version do you have? |
