Right, finally got this sorted....

While it updates I'll fill the rest of you in. As I understand it the appropriate USB drivers come on the disk or you can download them from any of the SE support pages. What you need is the USB update drivers. They are NOT on the global support page which has the link to the update. Instead they are on the UK support page (under drivers) which DOES NOT have the link to the update. Confused? So was I.

Anyway, get the driver and unzip it. Then go to Control Panel--->System--->Device Manager. Disconnect your phone, turn it off and plug it into the USB cable while holding down "c". Briefly, a yellow question mark with FLASH Drivers will appear. Right click on it, select properties and Driver. Update the driver with the ones you downloaded.

Now go back to the global support page and run the update manager.

When I did it, it tried to tell me it couldn't find the USB cable so I ran the Update Manager in Recovery mode. Only do this if you previously got as far as the system freezing when you plugged the phone in - I think that means that all the necessary software is already on your phone.

Good luck...

Also got it working. My God, its beautiful...

Everything seems a bit faster and I will let you know if it solves the standby crash. I'm off for some well earned shut eye...

Thanks to everyone who helped with their posts.

What are the changes/improvements?

I see the menu is faster and has the SE icons now. Also the noise the camera makes when you auto focus is now different

Not too sure. The camera seems crisper and makes a new noise. Menus are much faster. Thats about it. Hopefully the standby crash problem ahs been fixed.

But its one in the eye for all those people who take the piss out of the orange branding. Now you can have Orange customer service and an unbranded(ish) phone. I'm as happy as a dog with two tails...especially as I nearly left Orange in favour of O2.

Im loving the new icons. Far better than the Orange ones. So really the only branding left is the Orange logo on the actual phone?

The other things like Startup Animation can be changed.

Im hoping the camera is better. In some pics the left side could look a little blurry

The orange colour is just so seventies.

I get to the "download PC client" bit on the website and... nothing happens. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I'm dying to install the update.

Thanks to everyone who's already helped in this thread.
