to have a software upgrade, you have to definitely go to an ericsson service point near your place cause upgrading of the software can't be done thru the web or to simply put it; by yourself.
however if you only wnat to synchronize your phone with your pc then you have to only download the needed software at sonyericssonmobile website. or xtndconect for pc.
hope this helps |

what does the service point have that you dont?
shouldnt it be enough with a data-cable,the right firmware and a program to send it over to the phone? |

but wouldnt it be cool for programers to modify the software to fit them better? |

WEll, if everyone tried modifying the phone software, who would provide tech support if things go wrong?

You can do the upgarde YourSelf.
But to have the soft and the nex firmware, you need to d/l it from a secured server at Erricson.
So, if your service point is agree, just ask him the soft and firmware on a CD. And do it yourself with a datacable. |
