Amber Update UK Thread

[MrWhiteman]

Well its evident there is an issue, be it network related or camera... I agree with you, that their 'front of house' operators are clueless... But we were told the update would be made available mid month, and here we are at the 18th, with the update page still saying "awaiting approval"... So its likely days away, if not longer! Seems switching to the CV has worked for others, so im ready to jump ship.

I'm now downloading the CV rom, I'll let you know how it turns out

 

[Blocks9]

Let us know how you get on, ill be doing the same later! Cheers.

Why didn't Vodafone or others find a problem with the 920 Amber update? Why just EE??

No one knows what is going on! They tell us nothing, other than contrary statements ... from customer support staff who obviously haven't been told anything. As one member said, they even said the update would be out soon via Zune. *bangs head against wall* ... Im updating my phone atm via navifirm with the CV fw! Will update when its installed.

Watchdog on BBC1 is doing a piece on EE's 4G problems, and increase in amount of dropped calls! Seems they have more 'important' problems to deal with, than our update woes!

Just to let everyone know, I flashed my phone to the portico CV fw, then updated to GDR2 thru the phone update in settings. All seems fine, glance, pro cam and double tap to waken all working great. I now have data sense, too

 

[MrWhiteman]

It wouldn't let me install the CV rom, NCS gives me a Verify Credentials error.

 

[MrWhiteman]

I got it to work by selecting "No connection' from the drop down box on the left

EDIT: Sorry to say but the CV ROM does not fix the over-processing pictures issue

 

[BenGutt]

No 4G though, I suppose it won't matter if you aren't in a 4G area. If it's true that CV doesn't have the problem, I will flash as well.

The CV version for the UK includes an option for 4G, not that I've tested it. I flashed a couple of weeks ago, no more dependency on EE getting their act together for me!

 

[MrWhiteman]

Yea I realised it had 4G when I flashed it last night, but it didn't fix the camera issue which is what I wanted it for. I have flashed back to the EE firmware because I've got to take my phone back soon because the top speaker is blown.

EE tweeted me when I said it's mid-Sept now and it's still showing as Awaiting Approval meaning it'll be end of Sept by the time they release it. Also told them it's the lack of communication that is the worse thing. They replied with;

"Hopefully it will be here soon! Sorry for the disappointment. Thanks".

Hopefully and Soon. Fills me with hope /sarcasm

I want to believe. Is this i mirage? Am i hallucinating?

 

[ste1164]

No update for me so its either staged rollout. Or i already had the update.

[nsp24]

my unlocked EE 920 is updating NOW!

Buy the way these spinning cogs always annoy me how they do not interlock!

 

[agd87]

My EE phone is updating now. Nokia's website hasn't been updated with 'Available' yet, strange.

 

[greycounciller]

Could one of you please mention the firmware number of your update?

 

[antonyfrn]

Damn slow updating at preparing to install at 100% for a while now
