> T68 upgrade in the UK
Bookmark topic
Hi guys,
I'm a little new to this so please forgive me.
I've recently got a T68 from the car phone warehouse in their deal for orange customers. (old phone for T68).
By reading some of the posts on here it sounds like I can upgrade this to a t68i with a software update.
How do I go about doing this?
Some posts say take it to a service center but I've looked on the sony-ericsson site and I can't find a link anywhere to tell me where there is one.
Please help.
I'm on Orange and living in Gloucestershire.
Thanks.

Goto the Sony Ericsson Website and and you can either email them or phone them to find your nearest authorised service/ repair centre, they will then do it free of charge!

Call the CPWH where you got your phone from. Ask them if they are a service center. If yes - they will upgrade, if no, ask them where the nearest on is.
Also try the search function on ESATO. (top of page)

I'm in a similar situation in the same area, so perhaps you could post the details of the service centre you used once you've had the upgrade done.

I bought my T68m on Sat, and today I learnt that I have to send my phone 52 miles to my nearest Service Centre in Leicster just to get the T68i software! The cheek of it!

I was told that my nearest service center was berkshire or something like that.
I said that it was too far for me to travel they suggested sending my phone off to celestica in telford.
I rang the CPW in gloucester and they told me that orange don't support the upgrade yet but probably will in a few weeks and when they do I can take my phone in to them and they will send it off for me.

Unfortunately Celestica gave me the "won't touch Orange with a bargepole" answer when I rang them earlier. Looks like I'll just have to wait. F'ing Orange.

I take it that the problems the people had with Celestica was prior to the T68i coming out on Orange last week.
It may well be worth giving them a ring and asking if the situation has changed since the official release of the i.
After all as the i has been released on Orange they are officially supporting it. As the upgraded m is no different from the i they must support that too. That's my guess. Bet I'm wrong though!!
If in doubt take it to an Independent like Warnercomm in Reading and they will send it off for you. They did mine a month ago and I have had no problems!!
As you can tell by the signature I am no longer a big Orange fan!!
