T-Mobile and Orange are the slowest of all the networks to auth the software to be updated.
Im sorry to sy that you could both be waiting another month and then again the networks don't even have to approve the firmware any way.
It will also be no good ringing the networks because they havnt got a clue what you will be talking about and then blame SE like they always do.
The only thing i can say is either debrand the phone or just keep trying to update.
I know this is not what you want to hear but its the only answer currenlty there is.
I Luv the Orange network, but hate there branding this is why i would rather pay for a sim free model

@ mwarner
The only reason I ask about getting the O2 firmware back is because I'm considering sending my phone back as the joystick problem I am having is becoming annoying. I'm worried they'll refuse it if I send it back as it is.

Have anyone of you in the UK ever tried to take your phone with T-Mobile branding to a SE Service Center? The SEUS and Wotan isn't the only solution, but definitely the most convenient.
I don't live in UK, but Hungary and I've got T-Mobile phone. Last week I've updated my phone to R1ED001 in a SC, but on SEUS still no T-Mobile branded R1ED001. So I don't think T-Mobile haven't accepted the R1ED001, but SE didn't put on their SEUS server.

@farkasg,
Wotan or DaVinci are the only options to un-brand your phone if this is what you mean. A certified dealer or svc point will not do it. They are legally bound to leave the branding in place.

I know that de-branding isn't done in Service Centers..
I've reflected to this quoted post and previous ones about that R1ED001 isn't available on SEUS for T-Mobile and other branded phones..

As far as I am aware there are no longer any service centres in the UK - at least that was what my local Service Centre (which was in Coventry) told me when it stopped providing shop-level support for firmware updates.
I would be interested to hear if this is indeed the case. The Coventry branch shut down roughly when I got my K700 - i.e. 2.5 years ago.
