I took my new unlocked phone which I purchased in HK to a wireless store known for their expertise in firmware updates, and they said that my phone would not accept the OEM flash files.
While i am decently satisfied with the operation of my phone, I feel I should be able to update.
If anyone could please advise, it would be greatly appreciated. |

Where did you buy your phone from? I mean is it under warranty?

Thank you for your responses.
I purchased the phone in Hong Kong in on July 17th.
Unfortunately, I am now going to school in Michigan and I do not believe there are any SE service centers in th area, let alone the state.
Do you think i would be able to warranty the phone? When I first purchased it, I phoned SE regarding a defective battery and they sent me a new one promptly. Is this their problem or mine.
Thanks again for you help and I look forward to your responses. |
