@jnhl74
if your reffering to "still locked" in terms of using SEUS, then if it didnt work before, and davinic didnt change your CDA number, then i gather you still wont be able to update using SEUS as far as i know. sorry if im wrong, tho im sure someone will correct me if i am:S |

Just updated my S700. It worksed perfectly for me. Although it got towards the end and said that there was an error communicating with the phone and that i should take the battery out, put it back and try again. It had actually updated the phone alright so it didnt need doing again. Weird.
The menues are definately faster and the number search is better but I still cant turn off the shutter sound and they are still annoying!

Can someone or anyone for that matter explain to me why it is soooo important to have MS Duo Pro support on a PHONE? Other than maybe having more room for music, I can not see the point in watching small movies, videos, etc... on such a small screen. I see people complaining and whining that there is no MS Duo Pro support, so please elaborate as to why this is the Grail of the s700/

@Psycho-Dave,
I have never been able to get the SEUS to work properly with MSIE simply for the very reason you stated. It is crap. Netscape, the original web broswer via Mosaic, actually runs Java better. If you remember, MS had to remove Java from the Windoze OS because of a row with Sun. All other browsers run Java better than MSIE.

sapporobaby >>> Well, my friend tried SEUS with FireFox and it didn't work at all. And by the way IE is based on Mosaic and if SUN don't wan't java in IE, well to bad for them...

@P-D,
All browsers have to pay homage to Mosaic in some way or another. Sun did not mind MSIE having Java, but they did not want MS to screw around with it and in a way to try and "own" Java. Typical MS action when it comes to a technology that they did not own. As you also know MS rarely invents anything. You friend that could not get it to run, did he have Java installed on his PC? If he was running only Active X, there is a good chance it would not run. I think the SEUS will not run with Active X. |

I used the DSS20 that came with my P800 as standard and the update seemed to work fine on my S700i.

Maybe you have a newer P800 than when i got mine, but the one that came with my P8 was definatly not a DSS.
Because the platform sends bogus messages while charging, that is why!!!..But why this change of heart?..We sense a charger connected, oops, we will not shut down after all!!!..*********************** UI BASIC, HOLD YOUR HORSES

I have taken a look at Setool.net and I am confused to say the least. From whom to we obtain credits from and how many are likely to be needed due to think to remove branding etc from phone as I assume that is all we need to do because we have O2 phones.
I was thinking about getting the DSS25 and Unlocking cable from Mobilefun.co.uk, the price of the DSS25 is very reasonable. They also offer an unlocking service which costs £8.95 for the S700i but you need to purchase the unlocking cable.
I have attempted to click on the SEUS link for the S700i in IE6 and I get the "Welcome to SEUS..." but underneath that nothing, I have attached a screen grab to show you, would this be right without the DSS25 in place, I tried Firefox but the link redirects me back to the SE Home Page, weird I thought.
Do you know or indeed does anyone else know if I could easily damage my phone during this process.

-yeh, it seems theres quite a lot to take in when it comes to debranding/updating phones. gbrooks seems to be the guy to go for for credits here. as far as i can see it takes only 1 credit to debrand which also updates the firmware.
-as for the problem with SEUS, i got the same "Welcome to SEUS..." but underneath that nothing, so i uninstalled java from my computer then reinstalled it...and it worked fine, i know its odd but it works now so i didnt really care why it wasnt before. when u click the link it downloads the SEUS cliet, a checklist and goes through some disclaimers (not nesc. in that order) then it loaded a sperate program window, and if the dss isnt plugged in it warns u.
-guess u cud damage ur phone,but its only software so it can virtually always be fixed again:D |

If I may offer a word of advice. If you do not have it already, download and install Netscape. It is better at Java than MSIE, and does not have the security holes that MSIE is famous for. More importantly it has NEVER failed me when I performed an upgrade of my phones via SEUS.

I forgot about Opera. It is okay as well, but you have to remember to download Java with it.
