MDX · 13-08-2003, 16:11

nothing wrong with my phone i just want to get the newest update for my phone (witch will also take off the stupid orange stuff)

13-08-2003, 16:17

do you have to send it away then i take it?

MDX · 13-08-2003, 16:31

i dont know yet.

i am hoping there is a center near me and i can just pop in and get it flashed.

Nikhil · 13-08-2003, 17:04

if you find a list (or link) for the service centres can you please post them here. If not, could you tell me the service centres in central london (i'm planning on getting one on orange, so might wanna get it flashed too, to the latest firmware offering)

13-08-2003, 19:52

are there problems with the older firmware?

MDX · 13-08-2003, 20:06

no but there are newer things in the new one, and as i said i want rid of the orange stuff on the phone.

i am getting a custom and a red cover for my t610 as well

13-08-2003, 20:34

oooh what kind of newer things?!

AndyM · 13-08-2003, 20:56

I'm certain there used to be a function on the ericsson website to find your nearest service centres, but I can find it anymore!

MDX · 13-08-2003, 21:05

its just extra things with the camera and a few little other things nothing special but i would like the orange stuff off my phone.

it takes up room for other things i could put on.

13-08-2003, 21:22

i see!!!!!

good luck!

will you have to pay for the update?

MDX · 13-08-2003, 21:26

hope not

AndyM · 13-08-2003, 21:33

Firmware upgrades are free until your warranty runs out, and I believe you can have it done as many times as you want until then.. It takes about 30 minutes.

13-08-2003, 21:40

and the actual flashing takes about 30secs!

Tristan_B · 13-08-2003, 21:43

I got my T68 turned into an 'i' for free at my local Carphone Warehouse.

Apparently the latest firmware makes the camera a bit more responsive, and allows you to alter the brightness and contrast of the picture. It probably also fixes lots of other bugs....

I might wait for a couple more revisions before I have mine done, to see what else they're going to add!

Sorry!! I meant 30 seconds, I should look what I'm typing!
I suppose you'll have to leave it with them a while anyway.
I was going to get my T65 done at one time, but I never got round to it. That why I remember looking on their site for the nearest service centre. On the other hand it may have still been just Ericsson back then/

*Jon B - Somerset* · 14-08-2003, 12:07

Can the SE T300 be upgraded?

MDX · 14-08-2003, 12:10

all phones can get a update

*Jon B - Somerset* · 14-08-2003, 13:57

How?

just a software upgrade.

*Jon B - Somerset* · 14-08-2003, 16:50

Oh right, so does a message say something like "new software available, press yes to download" come up or do you have to ask for it somehow, sorry if im irritating you, id just like to know.

MDX · 14-08-2003, 16:51

no you take it to a center and they flash your phone there.
its done over a data cable.

takes about 30 - 40 secs.
