C500s now shipping with WMP 10


Recommended Posts

Orange are now shipping new C500s with Windows Media Player 10 installed, and hence the new update!

I didn't believe Orange when they told me so I went to the Orange shop in Bolton to "try out" a C500. I didn't get a chance to check out the Operator Version but it definitely had WMP10 on it. ;)

So... we should expect the UK update any time now!

So there should be an update available for current (UK) C500 owners any day now then.

HMMMMmmmm

i was under the impression the update would be released today (may 5th)

but perhaps not!?!?!?

GRR COME ON ORANGE YOU PIECES OF ****!!!!!

Altho to be honest, there wont be a hell of a lot to be dancing and singing about! who needs WMP10 when we have the latest BetaPlayer?! better than any windows player created.

Is there any major bugfixes for this release? eg the softkeys on the homescreen displaying message and contact incorrectly at times (bloody annoying!)?

Keep us updated modaco.... i know you will ;)

the "I can downgrade to a previous ROM version" and "TomTom is working" bugs will probably get fixed in this release as they were in the FR ROM ;)

I have a replacement C500 being delivered between 6pm and 10pm tomorrow. Will be interesting to see if that has the update.

my rom is 4.21.1088, presuming this is newer than the 4.1.1.4 on the orange update site?

i got 4.2.2.1 with french rom

it sounds to me like you are looking at the ms number, its the operator number you want to check

Sorry. I rushed this post. Hence the terrible spelling and grammar, etc.

Thanks for ammending Paul.

Maybe Orange meant that the new C500 phones will have the update as of 5th May?

Lets just say my company I work for have a lot of dealings with Orange. We were told the 9th of May a couple of weeks ago. I hope what we were told was accurate ;)
