Just got my W910i on contract from Virgin mobile. Whenever I try to update it via SEUS I receive the message 'No Update Available - Your Phone Is Up To Date', which evidentally it is not by the EQ bug.
Strange thing is, I have no 'Update Service' in my settings menu. Any ideas guys?

Hey guys,
I just updated my firmware and I'm having the same problem with the media player button. SE have really let themselves down with this phone..
All i wanted was a simple phone that I could use without any problems and coming from the K series, I must say that the W series is seriously weak! |

When you say that the Media Player button isn't working, which one?
I upgraded to the new firmware via SEUS FOTA and everything seems to be working fine for me (relatively anyways!)

Thanks for the quick replies guys.
@Dragon: I bought the handset from my local Virgin Megastore [now Zavvi, whatever the hell that is]. They have a little Virgin Mobile booth in the corner.
@Darren: Yep, that's where I am looking for sure. See for yourself:
I'm going to try updating again. Here's hoping... |

I just tried updating again via SEUS, and I'm getting the same message as before. Well and truely stumped, am I.
It's a shame that I can't use a  phone for what It's supposed to because of the frustrating EQ issues. Also a shame to hear the latest firmware release messes up the button. |

You have a Virgin branded phone, they will have to modify and firmware releases and issue them seperately.
The best thing you can do to a branded phone is get it debranded. This is the first time I have paid for a phone debranding, and its the best 10 EURO you can spend.
This adds the flash menu's, removes poor branding/demos and adds the software update menu again.
Also adds functionality for PlayNow and better browser start page.
PS, I have updated firmware today, and the Walkman button works ok for me.
Not entirely sure, but the speaker seems louder, what does everyone else think?

How would I go about getting the phone debranded then? Would this affect my agreement with Virgin at all? |

Depends on what you mean by agrement... I've heard/ read it could Void your warrenty but I'm sure someone will tell you 4 sure in a while on here.
You can do the de branding by going onto the daVinci website and reading up on there.

Oh and my walkman button is working ok.

I have updated the first post to reflect the issues that people are having with the on the phone;
The new firmware release seems to be an exercise in getting the media player and to work properly, but the issue of phone restarts and general reliabilty need to be addressed ASAP by

Hi all, had this phone 2 days now & haven't experienced the problems you seem to be having but i do have a really annoying problem with then EQ settings, mainly the megabass setting it just seems to be really over amplified to the point of distortion compared to the W850i & i'm not using crappy earphones either (Shure E2) is anyone else experiencing this ??
Thanks for any help John.
