K750 / W800 Firmware Overview |
CyberVisitor Joined: Dec 21, 2001 Posts: > 500 PM |
Just got the desktop stand for the K750 - damn it's cool! There's a green light around the contact on top of it that shines when the power supply is connected
One problem though... when I add the desktop charger to a profile it wont auto-switch to that profile when I put the phone in the stand  |

OK, I looked at this thread this morning and was excited by the news of the new firmware. Now, I've tried downloading the USB update service thing and can't do it!
I get as far as the install wizard opening, I click on "Have disk" - is this right? then I browse for the unzipped files from the download, but the browser won't let me see them. I saved them in a folder on the desktop but it doesn't show anythng
PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!! |

itstomhi, it can't see the directory or the files? When you browse to the right directory just click ok/next (not sure what the button text is). You don't select the file itself just the location of the file.

Sorry, I'm not too sure what you mean. (please give an example of the directory I might look for)
Can we start at the wizard screen which asks for the hardware type. Do I select "othre devices" Then, do I scroll down to sony ericsson mobile coms? Then what do I do? Click on "have disk"? or select 750 bluetooth or one of the others. I just don't seem to be getting the same options as are said in the instructions on SE website.
When I search for the driver, it only seems interested in looking for one called k750bus.inf. Maybe I should change the driver's name to this. lol!
Thanks for helping

Are you trying to install it directly?
You need to install the (original) k750 usb drivers for when you first hooked up the usb cable.
Then you need to download the updated flash driver and do an "update driver" in the windows > control panel > system > hardware manager.
Alternatively if you follow SE's instructions to update the driver (already having the original usb drivers installed) you turn your phone off and disconnect it fromthe usb cable, hold down the 'c' key and the connect the phone to the usb cable. The computer should say recoginzed new hardware to which you can then browser to where you unziped the new/updated flash driver *.sys is the file. You then broswe to the directory like I talked bout above.

Joshua,
What firmware do you currently have? I don't have EU4, but if you found a way to save the SE files on your computer please post how. I'm sure someone with EU4 will be able to send you the file if they know how to do it.

Ah Ha!
This was the first time I had plugged in the USB cable on this computer, even though I had installed the CD. So I let it download all of the other files and then was able to do the new one. Great, now to see if I can upgrade the firmware!
Thanks so much for your help! |

I am on orange, tried the update but got the message that it is being blocked by my provider. Spoke to Orange at length and they tellmemthat they do not have any information that they are blocking this pdate. Secondly if the way around it is a battery removal reinsert then the official statement is that it is a reasobale course of action and they will not replace the handset.

NOOooooo!
After all the hassle of downloading the usb driver, now I'm getting the meassage saying my operator does not approve of the update so I can't do it!
I don't understand. I'm with orange and many other people have upgraded their firmware on orange. I was looking forward to having all new icons, as suggested on the first post $(
Any suggestions please!!! |

BIG PROBLEM.. okay, my phone is busted.. I put the new firmware on and was working fine for 4 days. Today I turned on bluetooth and the phone got stuck. I reset the phone and now all I see is 'SEARCHING FOR NETWORK' then it hangs.. nothing I can do to bring it back to life.
Apparently this is ANOTHER major bug with the new firmware, I'm going to attempt to reflash again..
I cant believe I gave up my STABLE K700 for this POS! |
