QUOTE(Dead Cell @ Aug 14 2007, 00:50)  Guys, Can someone please tell me if its possible to go back to WM5? If so then do I just attach my device and install GD1 again? WM6 is ok but there are just too many problems with MSN and synching hotmails etc. I'm always having to turn off the device and turning it on again as the GPRS/3G/HSDPA always stops working even though its connected! And on MSN it keeps saying "No Wireless Network Available, MSN Is Trying To Reconnect" like every hour or so, and also when I send messages it keeps saying "Message Could Not Be Sent, Please Try Again"! Bloody annoying! Thanks be patient mate. its not a wm6 issue. more like mobile operator. -------------------- part of the team at PDA-247.com

QUOTE(0reboot0 @ Aug 16 2007, 21:48) I'm on Vodacom and I have no problems. I upgraded from Vodacom too, but it makes no difference as the Admin settings password allows you to change the phone network settings anyway. The only thing is because the phone ends up as a European WM6 version there are no MTN/Vodacom settings so you will have to set up the GPRS etc manually. -------------------- I900 Omnia JCHH1 (African...should I flash to European like I did my I600?)

It has the card view as well as a choice of many other screens. And yes the firmware is definitely faster. For some screen shots of the difference see my thoughts written here http://www.clieuk.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=13019 This post has been edited by gavinfabl: Aug 17 2007, 07:20 -------------------- part of the team at PDA-247.com

Guys, please tell me if this phone worth buying right now. I did have qtek (HTC) s200 and I loved it, because of touchscreen, full windows mobile, then I switched to N8800, but want something else, should I try this one?

What you have is a Vodafone version, which I've also had. You should upgrade to XXGD1 first, and then to WM6. You will find detailed instructions in this thread. D. |

QUOTE(dario_s @ Aug 13 2007, 02:17) To get past the "Incorrect version" message and upgrade any i600 to WM6, just follow the detailed instructions from this very same thread on page 15. D. I did follow the directions, but when you switch to Netherlands, it is not listed. Only Singapore, Malaysia, Indo and Default are listed. I tried Default is I got the "Not the correct version" error. I did an unplug\plug in USB as stated in the directions, but it still did not get pass that error. So you cannot set the region as stated in the instructions. I would like to hear from anyone who as been successful in upgrading an i600 from ASEAN to WM6. Thanks ZoneMan |

I [quote] Apparently you haven't been following instructions PRECISELY. You will find Netherlands listed ONLY after you upgrade your phone with the European generic firmware XXGD1 first. You haven't done that if you only have those countries listed. D. |

So how long is this update actually supposed to take?
The flashing process is already running more than 1 hour. (I can see on the device on the last line "Time: xxx" where xxx stands for numbers which are changing extremely fast) Is this normal or should I start worrying? edit: still not finished.... still random(?) numbers changingextremely fast edit2: I was getting impatient, so I pulled the plug on the device. After turning it on, everything seems fine and is working except internet connectivity. When connecting to GPRS or 3G, I get "ID or Password are wrong." and "Remote party stopped connection", although Internet settings are correct (I have to configure everything manually, because my provider is not in the list; I configured like I configured it under windows mobile 5 where internet was working) Any ideas?

The update will let you know when it is finished. If it is stuck at this point with "rotating numbers", the update has failed and some components of your phone have not been updated (check the Phone version, for example). This has happened to some people, simply try re-installing modem drivers and re-run the updater. D. |

It seems that the modem drivers could not be successfully installed on my notebook. When I tried it on a different PC, everything went fine. Internet connectivity is now working as well. |
