Guest ContactBot Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 Software update version 1.50 for Orange SPV for users in Switzerland (non-E.U. Europe), is available . It is not clear whether this update would work with SPV phones from other countries, and of course Orange strongly advise against installing updates from other territories.

Guest StoutMan Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 So do u advise downloading and installing it or just wait for the uk version. If you say install it, what are the advantages of the update other than a different number. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Simon Desser Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 Streaming radio works again without buffering! I've got at least a month to take advantage of it!

Guest Paul [MVP] Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 So far - touch wood - I have not had the dreaded freeze on dialling... when connecting to GPRS! If that bug alone is fixed, it is a worthy update! I also note that one of the default favourites is set to SmartPhony... interesting!
