just wanted to know if you guys noticed the push email option in the email accounts?

I've tried to get this working without success - when I go to edit my email account, there is a tick-box labelled "Push email", but I cannot tick the box.

What does prevent you from ticking it?

It only works for IMAP boxes, and was earlier named 'Allow idle IMAP' or something like that. In fact the Swedish help still uses the old name...
P990i (GW1) + 4GB MS

the tick box is not active - it's "greyed out". it's a POP3 account i'm trying to edit.

Just wanted to post that I upgraded my /2 (I think) phone last night. Only problem I had was that I couldn't do a backup before I deleted all the old backups... strange but it did work.
Most of the settings were saved, but stuff like your programs in the 2nd tab on the "today screen" were gone.
Phone seems nippier and I'm very pleased. YAY! I hope the next update will be even better!  |

Mine is CDA162008/91 R3A01, long time till mine gets updated if thats the way it is. Hopefully isn't though, I'd guess its down to the networks speed at editing the firmware

Announcement? From SE? Come on, this is SE we are talking about. No announcement, no feature list, no change log, etc. etc.
SE would never dream of taking all the fun of self discovery from us

I've just upgraded my Generic World 1 phone. Download and update took about 30min (yes, half an hour) wich is must quicker than pevious update (to R7)!
Restoring of data needed much more time but it seems that more or less everithing is here (no Voice labels, paired Bluetooth devices, some settings etc.)! |

I hate to ask such a stupid question. I just got the P990i yesterday and I want to update the firmware. How can I do this? Can someone please give me step by step directions? Thanks.
PS- I have no clue where to get the new update so please link me as well. Thanks. |

One more thing that i have noticed. Then the phone has been off and you start it up and you have got some SMS you now get the right time when they where sendt. But this is not the case with MMS. Here you still get the time then the phone was powered up....

I really do wonder why some people get these phones when they clearly have no common sense or nounce to look in the obvious place for the answers they seek.

Thats where im weary it seems that carphonewareouse have added their own firmware? even though the phone is sold as sim free/unlocked ....
Surely pure unlocked phones should be able to be updated?

Carphone Warehouse don't customise handset firmware. I bought my P990i from them on O2 (same as yours - unlocked) and it's CDA162007/2 R4A09. |

I am stunned that you feel the need to attack someone for asking the question, most phones you buy you simply do not need to imediatly start putting things right! so I am not supprised the guy is not "aware" of what to do straight off. ITYAATW work that out yourself from there!
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |
