Don't put your hopes up. I don't think there's a .73 release and the .67 firmware isn't released for Singapore sets.

there is.
i had updated my singtel set to 73 from pc companion

 

[dammad]

Updated 73 oso. Dint do any backup n all still intact after update

 

[carlover76]

Where can I buy the smart watch? Is it available at the bishan store?

The smartwatch has not arrived yet and my set is a test set so you can preview it first.

 

[centauri61]

Updated to 73... to those who updated

Anyone noticed that the 3 capacitive buttons are more sensitive after the update? Or maybe i'm just imagining things...

Pls post if u discover any differences... Thanks!

no choice, driving our "sports car" is like that... it's a power sucker

esp. if in a rush, just charge as much as possible with the time available...

at first i tot i found a 3.1A car charger... it turned out to be 2.1(USB1) + 1(USB2) = 3.1A...

there's no actual 12V to USB 5V, 3.1A car charger right?

3A n above will shorten ur battery life. and if over charged it may become bloated.

what will happen to ur phone when the battery is bloated ?

actually anything more than the standard will shorten battery life... so the higher the current the worse it gets lah...

ya, i know lah... looking at normal operating temperature vs charging temperature as well... have to be careful...

 

[ragnarok95]

Shorten battery life wont happen at least after a few yrs of charge and i believe no phone will be in your hand for more than 2 yrs...

And flagships will also be coming out every half a year. Very hard to resist new phones unless you are only into calling & texting.

My XS just died... can't charge, can't switch on.

The Sony service centre page here Service Centres : Access Service Information : Sony Singapore state that the one at Wisma is not for Sony Ericsson product.

So, any idea where should I send it to for servicing?

Woah wad were u doing with it? bricked it? I tink it moved junction 8/bishan..i know i went all the way east to repair my ps3..darn far for me.


Anw, anyone knows if the smart tag collection can be done elsewhere besides the 3 stores mentioned? All situated at north-east side. cus i'm gg bugis later. Thanks guys

Try do the hard reset first by pressing the volume up and power button together. Your phone should wake up.

I stand corrected on the update then.

I just connected my phone to PC Companion and still no update. For those who have updated, mind posting what sets you have? Singtel, M1, Starhub, unbranded?

And can you post your customization version?
- Go to the dialer and press *#*#7378423#*#*
- Go to service info
- Go to software info
- Post the customization version (mine reads 1257_6921_R7E)
