Posts: n/a Re: P910 Firmware Updates Spoke to SEUK they said it would not affect my warranty. Spoke to CarphoneWarehouse, they said they couldn't upgrade. So tried new link on SE web site and tried the upgrade. Everything went well, even though the phone had been supplied by Orange in the UK. Version number changed and restored all my data OK.

When I ran the update it told me that my new Organiser version was R3E008 which is the same version number as my current Phone version. Anyway I successfully ran the update, but the version number stayed put at R1A30, so I guess it must be something to do with my phone being a 'Vodafone' version. My CDA number is 162006/16, what's yours? -- Regards Barry
