My guess is that the branded are in the majority, because the phones cost less.

they're actually working together to develop a system for 'over the air' firmware updates, which means you won't have to go to a service center. Sort of like Windows automatic updates

@dhallug. I don't understand why your post seems to be angry with SE and not with the operators who are putting a block on the SEUS being used.

.
I am with O2 and mine worked fine, although O2 has minimal branding compared to Vodafone.

where did you hear that?
also, my point is that if a service centre can allow firmware upgrades for all branded phones, then why not online service update? it makes no sense.
Are you sure vodaphone allows update service because mine doesnt

No, Im not angry with SE. Its just that I dont understand why this system works this way.
Someone said they could update it on vodaphone but on mine it wont. even though there is a newer version out there.

I don't know how many times I have to tell you:
I am on vodafone and I have updated my vodafone branded software online For that reason and that reason alone: Vondafone does not prohibit online updates per se. If there is a problem with the P900 online update, you really oughta get hold of either

or vodafone to find out what exactly that problem is.
Sorry it's not over the air updates, it's a standardised online updating system they're working on

my mistake.
Quote:Sony Ericsson joins rivals for industry standard
Swedish mobile phone manufacturer Sony Ericsson has announced a major joint initiative with Nokia and Siemens that will make the updating of mobile phone software much easier.
Open Mobile Service Interface (OMSI), which is based on web service technologies, is a communication interface that will allow mobile phone software to be updated by the manufacturer directly across a computer network.
The purpose of OMSI is to enable one single PC application to perform updates of any manufacturer's phone's software as well as run diagnostic tests, device tests and configure user settings.
In what looks to be an emerging industry standard, Sony Ericsson, Nokia and Siemens are inviting other phone manufacturers as well as operators, application providers and other key industry players to join the OMSI effort.
As mobile phones become increasingly sophisticated, software updates to ensure network security and user-privacy are likely to become commonplace.

There is nothing that they can or will do. They will tell you to just take it to a service centre. But given that most of them treat your phone like dirt (one also damaged mine), its ver inconvienent
