Phil,
There's Carphone Warehouse on the Fort Shopping Park that'll do software upgrades. There is another one on Brum somewhere but I don't know where that is.
You have to take your phone purchase receipt with you to get the upgrade done. If the upgrade machine is working (!) it takes about 8 hours, as your upgrade goes in a job queue and is not normally done straight away. |

You can get it done at the Carphone Warehouse for free, no need for any receipt, box or anything.
At least that was the case when I went about 5 months ago.... |

Chaps,
I didn't make it up about CPW requiring a receipt. I KNOW it's true because I took my own T68i into the CPW branch I mentioned and I was asked to bring a valid receipt/proof of purchase with me.
Remember this is not an SE service centre, but a Carphone Warehouse one.
Apparently they have concerns about stolen phones being upgraded or something.
BTW it's only under warranty if you have a valid receipt/warranty document. |

The latest software in Sweden is R5D007 for the T68i. You have an old software version. There are a few changes since the one you have. |
