Guest David Strange Posted September 3, 2009 Report Posted September 3, 2009 http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/09/03/if...a_winmo_update/ This story tells us that the TG01 will be sold with WinMo6.5 from 6 October and gives us a place to look for upgrades for exisiting phones on that date. Let us hope the ROM update solves the memory card corruption issue. Cheers, David.

Guest The Real Mc Coy Posted September 4, 2009 Report Posted September 4, 2009 Yes BUT... There is no evidence that this rom update can be installed on branded TG01... Wait and see...
Guest patatozor Posted September 4, 2009 Report Posted September 4, 2009 (edited) un little bit more optimistic please :) !!! Edited September 4, 2009 by patatozor
Guest Neil5459 Posted September 4, 2009 Report Posted September 4, 2009 Yes BUT... There is no evidence that this rom update can be installed on branded TG01... Wait and see... Orange UK have already said they will be supplying the WM6.5 update though I don't know how long it will take them! Even the Orange TG01 still has all the operator settings config files inside the Windows folder, though they don't have any links to them from Programs or Settigns, so it may be that Tosh will allow branded device users to update. The screenshots show the generic WM6.5 interface without the Toshiba Stripes so maybe Orange will allow their interface to be dropped as well?
Guest IBTECH Posted September 4, 2009 Report Posted September 4, 2009 Yes BUT... There is no evidence that this rom update can be installed on branded TG01... Wait and see... Correct me if I am wrong, but as far as I know ALL TG01 sold today are branded through a carrier. there are no free market TG01 sold today. In Germany it is through O2 In France, Orange UK, Orange Spain, Movistar Japan, Docomo The only country I know they are being sold unbranded is in Italy, and even there I am not sure if it is really unbranded. I would assume that once 6.5 is released you would enter your IMEI on the Toshiba website and you would get a link to the firmware for your model, otherwise their statement is completely bogus as they didn't state that customers who already bought the TG01 would have to get the update through the carrier.
Guest tycho43 Posted September 4, 2009 Report Posted September 4, 2009 When i spoke to Orange they told me that i could upgrade only with either oranges rom or toshibas or id void me warranty.

In Germany it is through O2 In France, Orange UK, Orange Spain, Movistar Japan, Docomo In Italy is free :)
Guest unforeseen Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 is there any hard evidence that it will be posted on that website? I heard it was going to be OTA on Orange UK which means no rom... i dont remember where I heard that though, might have been on xda developers...

I heard it was going to be OTA on Orange UK which means no rom... i dont remember where I heard that though, might have been on xda developers... An upgrade from WM6.1 to WM6.5 is impossible OTA. They are totally different operating systems so a full ROM flash will be required.
Guest bingm Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 hmmm... if it's not an OTA update, maybe there is hope for custom rom flashing after all?
Guest Neil5459 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 hmmm... if it's not an OTA update, maybe there is hope for custom rom flashing after all? Yes- perhaps when there is a downloaded ROM to play with, someone will extract the SPL stuff and get working on a kitchen :)
Guest DaveLi Posted September 16, 2009 Report Posted September 16, 2009 Hi, I spoke to Toshiba Mobile peeps today, they say that phones must be upgraded via your carrier :-( Also that Carriers will make the updates available from the 10th Oct ... They will post info closer to the time on :- www.toshiba-europe.com/mobile But you would assume that they will need to release a Clean Toshiba ROM for Italy ? Dave
Guest razerbug Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 Orange UK have confirmed Toshiba will be releasing the update via their website and it won't be anything to do with Orange. The update page is up, it even checks your IMEI number and thanks you for entering a valid one, but then 404's annoyingly. Tried it today (the 10th) and still nothing.
Guest rooney101 Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 6.5 upgrade does NOT solve the bangging noises during calls problem on TG01
Guest rooney101 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 IF YOU TRY TO BLOW REALLY HARD WITH YOUR MOUTH INTO THE MICROPHONE OF THE TG01 - JUST UNDER THE HOME BUTTON AT THE BOTTOM WHERE THERE IS A LITTLE RECTANGULAR HOLE. THIS SOLVE ALL THE PROBLEMS LISTED BLOW CONSISTENTLY AND REPEATEDLY BETWEEN 5-10 TIMES TO CLEAN IT OUT PROPERLY. NO MORE ISSUES

I have d/l this twice now from the Toshia website and can get it to unzip.
