I took my P800 to the Carphone Warehouse in Bluewater today for an upgrade. Tehy said they had R2F - Horray!!!! But said he'd never done it before and said if he kills it he said it will go back too SE which will take two weeks!
I ask of everyone to pray for me and my lovely P800 which I miss already!

There is one thing to remember, at the end of the day its only a phone!
Its not like they have asked you to leave a vital part of your body behind!!

i took sw upgrade yesterday in SE service and it took one hour but without backup !
R2F rox and i like missed / outgoing / incoming calls that are not deleted after phone off !
full screen browser / video / pictures is also ok but i expected full screen browser that can be turned around for 90 degrees because browsing on html pages would be better
warning :
i have a 16 MB MS DUO and a 128 MB MS DUO.
i did only PHONE MEMORY backup, not MS DUO because there is no need to
when i did restore i have had problems - it didnt go !!!! it was of course 128 MB MS DUO in phone - then i put 16 MB MS DUO in phone and restore was ok
at the end i put 128 MB MS DUO again in phone and now everything is ok
strange !

The upgrade takes about an hour. It is free with your warranty included. You must make backup on computer. After software upgrade the phone data gets deleted.
by restoring you must have 16 mb ms duo in the phone

Umm.. yeah .. stick your p800 in the microwave ... WTF?
Anyways .. I shipped my P800 off to SE a few days ago for a firmware upgrade. I told them I was having problems with bluetooth connectivity and the phone would freeze up. They didn't have a problem with that explanation

took mine in for firmware upgrade and am into second day now. the service centre says that the p800 has to have the firmware upgraded online to se - service centre needs a smartcard and a dongle on their comuter. but they haven't been able to get through to se (servers busy) so no upgrade yet for me. maybe tomorrow. is this right it seems strange why on earth dont se let service centres download the upgrade so that they can then just pump it onto phones quickly. or even better if its all done online why not let us end users just go online to them and the phone upgrades??
