cuz no1 has it here (just came out) and it would cost me double to go to an authorised se center. So instead, i tgo to a friend' service and ask him to do it for me..i have the soft..costs me 10$ or so.

Thanks for the info folks,
Looks like I'll try and get R8A I hadn't heard that it was released.
It looks like my main problem may be trying to back up my phone
as their doesn't seem to be any software out there to do this using a Palm. What about backup software for a PocketPC as I may be able to persuade my brother to let me use his PDA.
thanks,
Morpheus

£30!? wow! just to plug the phone into a pc and press a couple of keys!
Anyone know how much CPW charge SE for upgrades done under warranty?
1. It costs money to become a service centre, to set up that PC/smartcard. Also they provide a guarantee on their work and fix/replace your phone should the upgrade fails
2. free under warranty.

Does anyone know whether CPW has the R8A firmware available yet? Sometimes when a firmware is released, it seems to take a while to filter down to the service centers.
Good news is that after firmware upgrading our phone, CPW says that you have 90 warrantee on it... assuming like me, you upgraded to R7A about 3 weeks ago just before my 12 months were up, I could technically go and get this one updated before my 90 days are over too.
Anyone know what games are added? Better not be yet another spin on solitaire. Something more original would be nice.

As I said there, CPW is still upgrading with R7A and they have not heard of R8.

Just to let you know the CPW Service Centre in Birmingham has R8A unfortunately they couldn't upgrade my phone, something about the upgrade not taking. Looks like I will be calling SE.

CPW despite saying the phone was unchanged appeared to have partially flashed my phone as when I retried some of the menu options the phone locked up. However I phoned the number for SE they gave me in order to get it upgraded and SE recommended another place called Gittins Communications who reflashed my phone and all is now great and I'm running R8A015 it was definitely worth the upgrade.
Just in case anybody else is planning to do this I didn't lose any of my phone book entries, pictures, ringtones or SMS/MMS messages even with the bodged initial flash.
