This Message was edited by: degraaff on 2010-07-14 15:37 Posted by RookwiseJust checked SEUS and nothing so far for Generic UK models. Maybe in a few days time though as updates released for certain areas over the course of 14 days usually.Posted by degraaffHave you tried checking using the phone's own software update menu in the settings - general menu?Also, another thing I noticed since the update is that the calendar and walkmate widgets won't show up in the 'home' screen anymore; when pressing 'Show', it displays walkmate in full mode, but not in background mode, and the calendar widget doesn't do anything at all now. This Message was edited by: degraaff on 2010-07-14 18:23 Posted by RookwiseI've tried both the phone's own update service and SEUS. As I said though.

New firmware doesn't get released for all regions at the same time so its just a matter of checking. I really hope the calendar widget works properly as I use it a lot. This message was posted from a J10iPosted by degraaffI'd also prefer not having two broken widgets on my Elm.Maybe it has something to do with having updated using the phone's Software Update menu in stead of SEUS (although I'd doubt that, because everything else works as good as or better than before the update), if not, I hope they release a fixed firmware soon.I noticed this new firmware has the same version name as Hazel's current firmware.

So they use the same firmware, but for some reason it took a lot longer for Elm's update to be released.

Non of the widgets seem to work properly (out of Facebook, Walkmate and Calendar) and so far I've noticed no other differences. Kind of annoying!Posted by RookwiseStill nothing for CID80 Generic UK Elm'sBought mine from Carphone Warehouse.

This Message was edited by: Rookwise on 2010-07-17 00:39 Posted by wolvishHi guys,I'm new to this forum.

I bought a new Elm couple of days back and am totally disappointed with it's camera and audio. It shows a visible blue yellowish lines in all the pictures. So I did a software update via phone's menu and it screwed up all the widgets in the home screen as you guys were discussing.Will firmware update fix the camera's problem? I'm also not satisfied with the audio quality and supplied headphones. Should i return the phone and upgrade to Hazel?

Any advice would be appreciated.Posted by reeflotzHazel's camera also shows some blue yellowish lines in pictures in lowlight shots, even in firmware R7BA081, Elm and Hazel both have exactly the same camera, hopefully future firmware updetas will remove them thoroughly.Posted by degraaff.

Kind of annoying!Funny thing: my elm didn't even have the facebook widget when I bought it, and it still doesn't have it after the update! And it gets even weirder: when I go to the official SE website and navigate to the walkmate info page and select Elm, it says walkmate is not supported by the phone!Posted by degraaffOkay. What is going on here now?Apparently j10i2 elm has been renamed to K970?

This Message was edited by: degraaff on 2010-07-17 09:10 Posted by degraaffWell, I decided to re-install the new firmware using SEUS, rather than using the phone's software update menu, and surprisingly it said there was new software. So I update, and when finished, it seems that it had reverted back to R7BA076. Not only that, because now my calendar and walkmate widgets are completely gone! It doesn't even show the little green triangle above 'Menu' in the home screen anymore. On top of that, all of my games and apps that were stored on the memory card have been erased, and the Grocery List and Checkbook apps have been reverted to the broken ones where it only says 'undefined' for everything (I had purchased them earlier from PlayNow, to fix them). This Message was edited by: degraaff on 2010-07-17 14:22 Posted by degraaffWait, hang on. I rebooted my Elm, and the calendar and walkmate widgets are back!

AND AND AND, they work properly again. So if you updated to using the phone's software update menu and your widgets are broken, reverting to R7BA076 using SEUS is the way to fix the widgets. IF you are prepared to lose all of your downloaded apps and games on the memory card.Posted by wolvish@ reeflotz: Oh ok. I was planning to upgrade to hazel.

My question is 'Will firmware updates fix the camera problems?' @degraaff: Reverting back to the old firmware fixed the widget problems? What about those red blue lines in the camera?Posted by degraaff. This Message was edited by: groovepeppy on 2010-07-19 23:29 Posted by degraaffHmm. I don't know, I don't think my Elm has any kind of firmware customization. I bought it in a general electronics store, without any kind of contract or subscription.Posted by RookwiseAll phones have a customisation file mate.

It determines the languages and region the phone is intended for.Unfortunately a lot of people assume everyone knows everything about their phone which is not true.To view the software version properly you need to access the service menu. This is done by quickly pressing right, star, left, left, star, left, star. Where left/right refers to the d pad and Star refers to the star button on the keypad (bottom left)Posted by degraaff1237-3362 R1A1229-0655 R7BA0761E0WWESTERN-EUROPEThat should be it. This Message was edited by: degraaff on 2010-07-20 15:39 Posted by RookwiseNot a UK model then. Also the phone is showing 1 error (1E0W).

Basically this means that the install hasn't gone exactly right. It won't affect your phone in anyway but if you want to clear it. Reflash with seus making sure you've not got your memory card or sim card inserted.

After finishing. Boot your phone up without the sim or memory card in. Once loaded turn the phone off and put your sim etc back in. Start the phone and set it up. This message was posted from a J10iPosted by degraaff.

Start the phone and set it up.This message was posted from a J10iAre you sure that this error doesn't affect the functionality of my phone at all? Because if it doesn't, I'm not going to waste my time to re-install the firmware yet again, since SEUS wipes out all of my apps, including those that I bought on PlayNow.Edit: SEUS never mentions anything about removing the sim and memory card before updating, why is it important? Lectra modaris pattern design software. This Message was edited by: degraaff on 2010-07-20 17:01 Posted by RookwiseNo it doesn't affect the phone at all. Basically when it booted up after the update. Your phone would be configuring itself.

While its doing this it also detects the sim card and tries to load from there. Its something thats occured on SE phones for well over 5 years now. A while ago SEUS used to say to remove the sim card but the newer versions don't mention it. It has been know that memory cards have become corrupted if left in the phone while its being flashed. The card then needs formatting to work again. I still do it as a precaution to avoid any problems. This message was posted from a WAP devicePosted by degraaffOkay, then i'm not going to bother re-installing the firmware.Posted by groovepeppy@Rookwise & degraafThank you very much, i'll try to update mine nowSee ya both later & please wish me luckPosted by degraaffWell, your home screen widgets are going to screw up, that's for sure.Posted by degraaffLet us know what your own experiences are with the new firmware.Posted by RookwiseJust a quickie.

I've found some info about this new update. It appears its for Orange UK branded phones.

This Message was edited by: degraaff on 2010-07-21 15:45 Posted by RookwiseDon't know mate. Thats what it shows on the server. Have got access to all version numbers for J10i and J10i2 along with the CID versions. The one you've mentioned has only come on in the last day or so. Probably the Orange and 3 versions are the first on the server I have access to and more will follow later. This message was posted from a J10iPosted by degraaffHow come you've got access to that information? Or is it public on some website?Posted by groovepeppyalready try with different cda and it turns out that no matter which cda i use, the messages are still 'you have the latest software installed oo your phone'Posted by avidI've noticed one improvement (in my eyes).

You can now turn Clear Voice and Noise Shield on and off from the Calls menu in Settings whereas before you could only do it whilst in a call.Posted by degraaff.

If you can't find it, i'll upload it somewhere.Pages.

The phone also came with social media widgets built in, such as, and.Upon release, the phone was available in two color schemes: black/silver (matte-black frame with silver-coloured battery lid), and pink.Apart from the form factor and the very minor software changes required by the difference in form, the Elm is feature-wise identical to the Sony Ericsson Hazel (J20i). The J10 variant has a second video call camera on display side, whereas the J10i2 features. Sony Ericsson Elm J10i2 Greenheart The phone is one of Sony Ericsson's earliest environmentally friendly 'Greenheart' range, featuring devices made of materials, longer battery life and low-energy chargers, as well as minimal use of paper through reduced packaging and the replacement of the traditional printed user manual with one stored on the phone. The Elm was made from recycled plastic and free of toxic chemicals. The device also shipped with 'eco-aware' applications such as the 'green calculator', which showed saved CO2 by walking, minimized packaging and the use of waterborne paint, as well as 'Walk Mate', a walking navigation app.Eco-rating, an organization providing sustainability scores to mobile devices, gave Elm 4.3 out of 5 rating, which is the highest among the handsets it evaluated in 2010.
