Guest dmmh Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 dmmh, i think you are getting confused, this isnt the english update, its the swiss update. :lol: I know man. But first of all all my menu's are English now, not Swiss, and isnt +44 England? All dialup settings changed to +44 for country code. Seems as English to me as it can get :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest midnight Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 update went fine btw, from Dutch 1.37 to English 1.50. Half the menus are in Dutch, the other half in English though lol. But its way more responsive, so Im cool with it. only commenting on your previous post :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dmmh Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 only commenting on your previous post :lol: I can see the confusion now :D anyways, I somehow got into my head it was English, with all the English stuff happening to me phone :smirk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest evilminky Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 so its safe to upgrade the english software to this new swedish software with no problems for someone who cant understand swedish. worth waiting for the english version did anything change when they changed other the other upgrade into the english version?

Guest Lojt Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 The SMS counter (that has been in the danish ROM in the last few months) is usefull, but only when doing the typing-number-on-homescreen-and-selecting-sms thing, not when selecting 'sms', 'new sms' and 'add to'.

Guest morpheus2702 Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 Anything concrete heard about the UK update yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest djthorp Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 Well i did a very brief update to this before reinstalling the 1.35 rom. It's looking good (I love the default graphic on the swiss homescreen). MY SPV zipped along quite nicely when i did have the new update on. Few probs which I'm suspecting is because I installed a foreign rom more than anyting 1. Orange update and backup dont work 2. The update changes my links on my homescreen to swiss pages. Suspect Paul might not have the problems with backup and update because he hard reset. Not doing that though cos i cant cope with foreign. Hopefully the proper UK version will be about soon cos its looking really really good performance wise Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted June 25, 2003 Report Share Posted June 25, 2003 Orange Update and Backup worked, after a hard reset everything was still in english (albeit US English). I use RELOAD homescreen anyway, so the links aren't an issue for me :lol: P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MoRFLeZ Posted June 25, 2003 Report Share Posted June 25, 2003 I wish I knew :? I cant see anything new other than an SMS counter that only works if you know the persons number off by heart :roll: and a slightly quicker boot time. Maybe Paul knows some more :?: Well I don't know if this works for UK phones, but when I write a text I add the contact from my contactlist (which will remove the sms counter) then I write "0" (or any number) in the "Cc:" field .. delete it again - and I have an SMS Counter with the right contact - without remembering their number by heart! Granted it's not the easiest counter to work .. but it sorta works... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted June 25, 2003 Report Share Posted June 25, 2003 Or just select your recipient from the home screen contact list (press left/right to select SMS) then select. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Simon Desser Posted June 25, 2003 Report Share Posted June 25, 2003 Nice tips :lol: (Paul & MorFlez) Paul, have you noticed any major differences in version 1.5 :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted June 25, 2003 Report Share Posted June 25, 2003 Not really, the UK 1.5 should be better tho :lol: P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Simon Desser Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 One strange thing I've noticed with version 1.50. I have 2 phones, both with identical IPSM's. After updating the ROM to 1.50 on one phone, All-Location's GPRS counter now loads automatically "in the background" (as you'd expect), but on the phone with version 1.37 still on it, I have to manually start the program for it to monitor traffic. Any one know why that would be :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Simon Desser Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 (Why is everyone so desperate to update?) So your entirely happy with 1.3X then, and won't be bothering with any more updates :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I'm happy with my SPV now, yes. I know a new UK update is imminent. However, I'm patient enough to wait for Orange to release it though, without posting all the problems i've had with ROM's designed for a different countries mobile infrastructure and language... ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Simon Desser Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I wouldn't be foolish enough to post any problems to do with locality and language, after installing a "foreign" ROM :shock: My last post was saying that All-Location's GPRS counter worked the way it should, after update v1.50 :). Surely, SOME of the changes that appear in this version are indicative of what can be expected in the UK version :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 I wasn't aiming my inital comment at you, more at the general posts along the lines of "shall i do it, will it go wrong, is it better", and so on. Repeat posts by people that will have an update for their own country soon enough. My comment was, why are people so desperate for an update, to the extent they will risk killing their phone with a non-standard ROM image, for the sake of waiting a few weeks. People seem to be anticipating a lot more than they are likely to get in SP2002 updates. To be honest, i wouldn't expect more than a working SMS counter and a few speed-up tweaks (and hopefully the WMP buffering bug) this side of SP2003. Sorry to dash any hopes some people may be having over the infamous updates :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
