Guest smnhicks Posted April 9, 2003 Report Posted April 9, 2003 Hi there, I've had my SPV for 5 days and I love it ... I can't wait to try out all these fantastic new programs BUT (there's always a but) I can't get the UK update from the Orange site to work on my PC. I'm a bit narked cos I don't have the internet at home so I had to go to an Internet Cafe and pay them way too much money so that I downlaod and burn it onto a CD. Each time I run it on my PC though I get a general protection error. The files have been installed. I got the screen saying do you want to back-up and then the fatal error and the update closed. The thing that is really bugging me is that (according to the Orange web-site) I can't de-certify my phone until I have this update. Did anybody else have this problem and can you suggest what I should do? I really don't want to download it again as that will cost me even more money!! Thanks for any help. Simon

Guest midnight Posted April 9, 2003 Report Posted April 9, 2003 errrrr, if you've only had the phone 5 days, you sure it isnt updated already? :wink:
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted April 9, 2003 Report Posted April 9, 2003 That's true... Programs > Settings > About Whats the Operator version?
Guest smnhicks Posted April 9, 2003 Report Posted April 9, 2003 I thought it would be up to date too but the ROM version is 1.1.6.0 ... is that what tells you if it's up to date? Simon
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted April 9, 2003 Report Posted April 9, 2003 Well out of date :lol: Good luck tonight.
