Hi
I wanted to know in which countries the release 5 update has been rolled out...?
I have not got in india...?
Any idea plz reply..
Thanks
In the US and some say it has been rolled out in India
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda app-developers app
still not in the netherlands
A few received OTA in India last week - Europe normal gets the rollout about a week - 10 after the US, atleast going by past updates.
Changed region to India and no action at all. India is in ST006 so NZ AUS Hong Kong etc would get at the same time.... Going by past updates anyway. ICS original came through at 11pm local time for me which was 2pm Hong Kong (I think).
My guess is that the people in India had changed theirs to US or had US tabs....
Also could not find a URL for this, hence changing to India region.
I agree with the roll out, everyone had ICS within the end of the next month (May). So wasn't too bad

Thanks for the replies...
I guess its not yet available in india mayb many of them have chaanged their region to usa so they are getting the update since mine is an unrooted tab I havnt got the update when I checked in the system update
Thanks again all for confirming my doubt
tablet in different country
got my tablet in India but I live in USA. Will I get the update when it is available for Indian customers(or will I have to somehow connect to their Indian server)? Theoretically I should but because of a very bad experience with Sony recently I am just not sure. Can anyone tell me that?

I really dunno y americans are always lucky in everything related to updates....and remaining countries will have no clue wen they wil get it....but always wait n watch for months
sony support
I contacted sony support and they confused the hell out of me. Made me format my tab.
I contacted them through a contact on phone and they actually said that it is a global update and i should be able to update it so thought that my tab was abandoned because some kind of lack of contact to Indian servers. This thread told confirmed my suspicion that it was not not a global launch.
Thank you for that. The support is bad to say the least.

Hello.
I have a table 10.1 purchased in usa but i live in UK and my IP is london. Would I need vpn to look like I'm in the usa to get the Touchwiz update from tomorrow?
Same here...USA tablet living in France...we're gonna see this tomorow ;-)
Same here. US tablet in Germany. Will report back tomorrow
same tablet in Vietnam
Glad to hear I'm not the only one
Hopefully it'll work... I wonder how fast or slowly they'll roll out... I work in software and we never release on friday in case things go wrong!
Well ever if it isn't released Friday in the UK i'm sure you can update via odin or CWM once a copy becomes available on here.

I bought my Tab in the US a few weeks ago, and it just pulled down the touchwiz update this morning via wifi. Took a while to install, but first impressions are pretty good.
yeh ok nice
Long story short, I am using a UK Xperia S however I'm in Canada.
I installed the Sony PC companion but it's not detecting any updates. I even tried changing my location to UK on the program but does not make a difference.
Is there any way to get this update without having to use the flashtool in the android development section?
Anybody else have this problem using the phone in a country that officially does not have it yet?
Sorry if its of topic but where did u buy yours? And how much including taxes?

Negri electronics online.
Roughly came to $679 including overnight delivery. (plus US customs taxes of around $37)
There are cheaper places to order the phone but I am extremely happy with Negri's service. Phone was delivered to my door less than 24 hours of placing the order online.

ordered mine from them as well, ordered it on the 13, but they didnt have any units when i ordered it, and they got some today and already shipped my order, getting it on the 16th
Edit: as for updating the phone, why don't you just flash the file posted by bin4ry, and i don't think sony pc companion works like that, when it updates, it just checks ur build.prop for the firmware you have and releases the update based on that
hey i am in Toronto as well XD
I don't have problem on update, i just plugin and it notify me that i can update right away.

Really? That's odd, maybe I already have the latest version.
How can I check? Thanks
Hey guys, I ordered from Negri too, also in Canada. Victoria, BC
Mine was the Singapore version, updated to .67 right away, although I am thinking of flashing to the UK version. What is pre loaded with it?
My build version is 6.0.A.3.62 so it's the older version, so why isn't Sony companion updating my phone?

Anyway mine won't update either, keeps saying I have the latest version already.

I have the Singapore version as well and checked in the service centre and they said .62 is the latest here and .67 isn't released yet here.
If you are in .67, most probably you might be in the UK version.

I have the Singapore version and can't receive the update =(
P.S. I am in Toronto.
so what's causing the singapore version to block the update?
will this affect future updates?
maybe its a good time to flash to the generic .67 firmware.

I ask the person in sony, and she said not everyone get the update at the same time, so we should wait for it.
Why not just flash the UK version, i think they have play station store enable

I got the playstation store .apk file from the android development section so now it's on my xperia s anyway.
I should clarify that it was Seus that updgraded, wasn't on the device.
Can you d/l the playstation games? I thought you couldn't unless you were in the country they were released?
Still no sign of ICS for UK?
I can't check myself as i have a unlocked boot!
Yep, still waiting
No sign of it yet mate

Really? I got mine 2 days ago. I am on UK t-mobile.
When you do get it, one tip. Once it is installed, reboot then leave the phone alone for 20 minutes or so. The walkman app would constantly crash for me. It was only when I looked a the debug logs that I found it was rebuilding the media database. This took ages.
I miss the volume on the lock screen, access to the settings menu from the menu key on the launcher, but otherwise its all good. Oh, and Gallery is now called Albums. Took me a few minutes to work that out.

can you upload ftf please
Sim free UK.. no sign of ICS, TBH the phone works very well with 2.3.7.. more concerned with the wee blotches that pop up every so often.

so where does that leave us folk who bought sim-free handsets?
i'm actually with t-mobile, but i bought the handset sim-free because i was so sick of my wildfire s breaking down....actually went to t-mobile to try and buy this handset from them and upgrade my contract at the same time, and got told that there was nothing i could do until my contract was up next october (2013), which is why i bought it sim-free :s

Same here, and it's not as if there's any bloat in the tmobile firmware only the tmobile app that you can download from the play store
there ain't a Generic NL ICS either
I checked this morning and no update was available, but plugged my phone in this afternoon and it says an update is now available (I have already updated to .75, so it must be ICS?). It goes through the process of downloading the update, but at the install stage it says no software found! Very frustrating...
Edit - I'm using PC Companion, and the problem seems to be that as soon as it starts to install the update the phone shuts down and loses connection to the PC, so the update fails...

Yep, with 3. The new software version is 6.1.A.0.452, which I've just checked definitely is ICS. SO frustrating I just can't get the update to install. The update downloaded fine, but when it gets to the actual update stage the phone shuts down and the update fails.
So 3 are actually good for some things! I actually wrote to David Dyson this morning asking to be released from my contract - they have messed me about massively - broke my phone then in comical fashion failed to fix it, and then offered me a HTC Chacha or HTC Desire C in it's place!!! I would have laughed if I wasnt so offended!
Edit: 7th time is a charm and I now have ICS on generic UK with 3...
SEUS should work most of the time, PC companion sucks... :/
Ah great, does your SI number finish with 3114?

Before I checked the forum I searched google for a UK update and found that Customers on the network 3 can now upgrade to ics. I upgraded manually using the Switzerland flashtool thingy bob. It's slower at times but does look a lot better

i've tried sony update service (the one where you switch phone off, hold volume while connecting usb), tried pcc, tried ota from the phone, always says i'm up to date.
Hi, I have a i9300 (international) S3, , and I wanted to flash the official 4.1 by Kies or OTA, since it's been released some days ago. I see a lot of people getting the Oficial update via Kies (not the Odin method with Poland rom), in the Interantional, the same as me. Might it be that Kies or Samsung doesnt let the update here yet despite it being international (Being even that this phone ISNT from Argentina, it's the international version bought in America I think, or Europe)?
It's not release yet for your country.

Thanks for quick response.
So it's basicaly being "blocked" because the location of my IP, right? Doing some VPN crap could trick that? (asking so I don't waste my time, I know how to do it).
Do you know if in United States the International verison has the update via Kies?

no its being blocked by your devices csc. good day
? Mhm... but I didn't buy it in Argentina, and it's the International version bought directly without carrier and unlocked... what makes then this phone different in CSC to others phones also international and same exact things being updated perfectly then?
It's not release for almost any device. You'll see the update hiting europe in october, and probably other areas too.

Also it says CSC:
LG4 (TPA) ... i dont know what regon that is ..
It seems that It's a bought in Panama, with I9300UWHCLG4 ... it's gonna be a loong time I guess till I have official JB. Dang.
est_cap
At the moment it's largely irrelevant where your phone was bought. JB has only been released on an extremely limited basis - Poland and a smattering of networks in a few countries (though I've seen no one talk about these countries on here). There is no IP blocking. JB just isn't here. And if people are claiming that they're getting JB from Kies, they're lying unless they have Polish phones.
As above, is there anyway to download the above firmware other than funkyHuawei? I dont think its right i should have to pay $35 for 5 credits when Huawei should release the OTA update to fix several problems with there device, especially a phone that doesn't work over WiFi!
I guess you could email Huawei, or your operator. It doesn't exist outside of FH, not sure how he got his hand on it.
Or you could rebrand to C432 or C636.
No way to do this unfortunately. You could contact Huawei but they will ask for your IMEI, then tell you the update is being rolled out.
Luckily I don't have the WiFi problem, but a few other smaller problems which could do with an update.
Maybe the phone doesn't like certain routers. Not sure.
I emailed Huawei last week but doubt anything good will come out of it. So is the firmware over at FH unofficial?

A select few have said they got it as an OTA so I don't think so, unless they used FH
I talked to Huawei live chat and they confirmed that this update is rolling out to UK users, just a waiting game.
I'd use funkyhuawei if it was a one time purchase but having to buy 'credits' every time I want to flash an update just doesn't justify value to me.
Guess I'll wait for the OTA

Exactly, why should we pay for a official ota update !!!! What is really bugging me is the fact im having to use my data plan as the WiFi doesn't work. If i dont get a ota very soon im going to return my handset as i dont get long to return anyway.

Let me know how you get on, im still waiting on an email reply as the chat was down. I bought mine sim free from amazon so i dont see why im waiting for a OTA unless its because i stuck a Vodafone sim card in it?
Hi, I got the BLA-L09 8.0.0.124 update about a fortnight ago (bought unlocked from CPW in Nov.) and did receive the update OTA..... did NOT buy anything from FH. So, can confirm it is a UK OTA update, so, should roll-out eventually...bit of a pain though for anybody playing the IMEI waiting game...
When checking for ota, sometimes you have to click the 3 dots in the upper right and click install full package.
Another thing sometimes i was getting ota update on Huawei's phones after a factory reset directly,i would do it from the stock recovery,but don't feel bad if this doesn't work for you, it's up to you if you can't wait and want to try.

Think I am going to send it back. Apart from having a bit better battery and brighter screen than my U11+, the software is a mess and the audio via every dongle is worse.
Don't think the sim card you used has anything to do with it really. Just IMEI lottery which is stupid tbh lol
What is in this update? In the Change Log it says, "No information". Google search doesn't return much except a reddit thread where someone said, "I purchased a sim free mate 10 pro from CPW which was running 115 (c782) flashed this fine but since I always get an EE app even after a factory reset, help?" I too bought Sim Free from Carphone Warehouse and am worried I'll get EE spam on my phone (I'm an EE subscriber), so need to know if it is worth updating.

If you pay the money and update via FunkyHuawei you will likely get some EE branding. If you wait for the official OTA update, it will stay with the carrier branding you have at the moment.
It appears that FunkyHuawei has managed to get hold of the EE version of the latest firmware.
Three?

Still no reply from Huawei, they have till the end of the week to reply back to me otherwise im sending it back for a one plus 5T. The more i use the phone the more faults i find, Today i used google maps to navigate me to an address, is so jerky and not smooth at all, really bad.
I spoke with Huawei regarding the bugs I have with this phone on firmware 115 and the update to fix them.
They took my imei . They told me there was an update that is approved for ota waiting for me.
I told them both ota and hi suite say there is no update for my phone.
They then tell me the update is automated and rolled out in batches and I must then wait for the update notification....
