Guest morpheus2702 Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I HAVE however raised it with Orange at the highest level, and hope to be able to post an official response soon... What did Dylan say?
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Waiting for a list of fixes now. They include a fully working SMS counter and ringtones on the SD card though.
Guest Brody Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Sweet! Look forward to a release! If only my name was green for another reason :) I think its great that the Mods are being allowed to test it as well, Orange are really recognising this forum now, what with the e100 prizes and this... :o
Guest Pagemakers Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Waiting for a list of fixes now. They include a fully working SMS counter and ringtones on the SD card though. I await your response with bated breath.
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 OK, no full list available yet (we're still using a prerelease, not the "final" final version). The minute the fix-list becomes available it will be posted on the site.
Guest vijay555 Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Hark at Richie, information minister! :wink: Great news boys.. anyone got anything on battery life -i'm telling you for a fact that qtek is MUCH better than e100 1.5. Oh, and midnight's led notification hack in rom would be very useful i think. Should be default. V
Guest ClintEastman Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I was half hoping the delay was due to a certain SP2003. Well it’s good to hear that we (MoDaCo) have made it into the Orange loop anyway! I look forward to a fiddle at the meet (and a go on the phone too)!! :o :)
Guest drblow Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Paul - cheers for the inside info! It's always good to see that Orange are taking more interest in the modaco community - it's not what you know, it's WHO you know - you know??!! 8) I understand if you can't give us any more details - I'm just wondering if you have done the OTA decert after installing the update - & if so, did it remember you details (IMEA no. etc)?? Hope you can enlighten me. Cheers! :wink:
Guest Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 I don't suppose they've fixed: 1) In T9, the ability to select a different word having already pressed space 2) Holding down a key in either T9 or multitap to insert a number 3) Phone returning to the homescreen when keylocked after a call ? The phone would be near enough perfect with these fixes....
Guest Pagemakers Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 err and these: Fix the GPRS dialling problems Delete all inbox items (SMS & Emails) Fix SMS counter Multiple email accounts Full phone backup facility Alarm icon on Today screen Better battery life SAME numbered shortcuts on all menus Always remember saved T9 words Faster operation & less lockups
Guest Tosh Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Like the others, I must congratulate Orange for having the wisdom to use MoDaCo experts to test the software release. If anyone can come up a definative list of fault, errors & bugs, they can. One question, its was posted - 'OK, no full list available yet (we're still using a prerelease, not the "final" final version)' When the final release comes will it be a different version number?
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 It will be 1.6 we have been told (but that's not necessarily what our version is numbered...) P
Guest Tosh Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Cheers Paul, can you tell us what the file size of the upgrade is at the moment? Wondering if it will be a site download or an online Orange Upgrade?
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 A download, as the radio stack will be upgraded, and this prevents OTA update. P
Guest Tosh Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 Ok, thanks for that. Keep the info coming, we all really appreciate the feedback. Tony
Guest drblow Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 "]A download, as the radio stack will be upgraded, and this prevents http://smartphone.MoDaCo.com/viewtopic.php?t=22908>OTA update. P Mmm... so what, can you not decert the phone with this ROM???
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 No, no, no... I mean you can't get the update Over The Air! P Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest spacecowboy6982 Posted August 13, 2003 Report Posted August 13, 2003 And all in a few weeks time - came back at the right moment then lol - cheers 4 this Paul ! SpaceCowboy
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Another bit of info... When I end a call, it returns to the homescreen after a few seconds, even when the keypad is locked! Cool! P
Guest morpheus2702 Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 Paul, visually is it much/any different to 1.3/1.5?
Guest Simon Desser Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 When I tried the UK 1.5 E100 ROM, when I call a contact, instead of displaying "Calling" and the contact's name, it shows "Calling" and the number. (This glitch still remains when I went back to 1.3X ROM but didn't do it before 1.5 :shock:) Has this been fixed :?:
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 14, 2003 Report Posted August 14, 2003 I also noticed this with 1.5, and yes it does still do it.
