Well, it's confirmed. My replacement handset arrived today, complete with R2Y005.

No 'More' button, but address book searching works a treat.

Anyone know if it's on the online update service yet?

I had to borrow my mate's P900 cradle (DSS-25) to perform the upgrade to the Orange R2L a few weeks ago (Orange shop and SE Service Center were no help at all!)

Is the camera sound still compulsory in the new firmware?

I have just tried the update service again and now i get the error message, Your opperator no longer supports this service.

This was not the case last week ??

I manage to update 3 of my friends phones before the sercive went down and all was succesful, All on orange and we are all now on R2L.

But im not sure when the service ill be back up again??

hmm, even with ringtone volume at 0 and silent mode on the camera still plays the shutter sound. used to be that setting volume to 0 would mute it, seems odd that they'd change this.

That can't be good news!

This happened to me as well when going from Orange R2C to R2L

I think it's due to a law whereby phone manufacturers are supposed to stop people being able to take "secret" pictures of people.

A bit silly since digital cameras don't have the same restriction, and nowadays most mobile phones with cameras make it obvious that there is a camera on them.

Well that was really pointless...

"Thank you for your mail, i can confirm that Orange do not have any current plans to release new firmware for your phone.

Orange Technical Support"

They didn't even answer whether the Online Update service will be back up!

Mmm... back to the drawing board.
