Guest wideawake Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Thats good news, so can I just re-cap:- 1. It can be installed on UK phones? 2. You can change the language back to English after installation? 3. You can re-do the uncert procedure? 4. SPV is the best thing since........ Please someone confirm.

Guest The Futures Bright Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Yes on all 3 counts and Tetris plays as normal. ;) So what ya all waiting for? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikey808 Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 You forgot count 4 ! IMHO sliced bread is pants compared to this phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aGeS Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 How about the SIM card swap trick - does this one still work too or did Orange succeed in closing that hole ? Don't want the update (even though I'm danish) if I'm back at using Orange when my employee has given me a free SIM card with another operator. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Firaas Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Damn f**king phone. That'll teach me not to play with the flash ROM bit. It seems I fried my ROM - do I get an award for being the biggest prat? Trying to reload from SD now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Futures Bright Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 No idea on the SIM card trick i'm afraid aGeS i don't have another network SIM to try. :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest anders_g Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 The ringtones wouldn't play if you change the level of the ringtones in normal profile. Anyone got a solution for this? /Anders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 All sounds good so far, except for Firaas now having to explain to Orange Care how he nuked his phone's ROM ;) Now just to see if the UK update is the sameee...

Guest The Futures Bright Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 It sure is for all us impatient peeps who cant wait for Orange UK to get their finger out. What an improvent to my beloved SPV. Sigh ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DJHope Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 How is the unlock trick done on this update as per usual or the sweidsh way (just a hard reset)? DJ Hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Firaas Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Nah I've sorted it! I backed up everything to SD before cocking the ROM up, just restored it. Installing the DK Update thing now - remember that the English one is more likely to have protection against certification workarounds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Futures Bright Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 I just done it the usual way as described on the forums sticky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lojt Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 I wonder when they were gonna tell people about this... I only found out cause i called orange today and asked when the update was out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DJHope Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 You see cert works on this danish upgrade hence why im more likely to install it than the english one, just gonna wait for a couple more people to confirm ;) DJ Hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Firaas Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 I'm on the way to confirming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rob.P Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 I was thinking the same as you DJ, hence downloaded the Danish one, saved for later. Seems everyone has the feeling that the UK update is gonna kill the uncert method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Firaas Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 I can confirm that it works. And that you can restore from SD card quite easily. Just used eMbedded Visual C++ tools, registry edit and stuff... is my current homescreen (set by itself...). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wideawake Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Hmmm, thinking..... So even if we do get a UK update, could I always go back to the Danish update that I have now saved to disk? If the worse cam to the worse and UK update closed de-cert route, could I then flash back the Danish update, opening the hole again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest muude Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Just installed the new update, which I've been waiting a looong time for since I'm Danish... MINE IS F**KED UP!! Started as it should with Danish menus and all, but then rebooted (by itself) and came back in English (huh??) Now I'm trying a lot of things, but don't really know what to do...

Guest Firaas Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Yeah - I'm keeping mine as it is, but I'll try the English update, and if that sucks, I'll go back to Danish. I'm also getting ready to create an SD card backup of how the phone was originally just in case they both suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Firaas Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 For those of you who were peed off about slow internet scrolling - that's been fixed! It scrolls through REALLY fast if you hold down the down key... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wideawake Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Firass, how do I make a rom backup onto SD? In fact, errr, can I have a step by step procedure? (Don't know if this is relevant to this thread, but I guess everyone may need to know how to do it!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
