Salut Mihai,
Al meu N900 nu m-a notificat inca de acest update – desi s-ar parea ca tot restu lumii il are deja…
Nu-mi apare nimic la Update iar cand incerc prin aplicatia de SW Update primesc un mesaj care-mi spune ca my service provider (Vodafone) doesn’t allow this update… Ai idee ce alte metode as mai putea incerca?
Multumesc
Salut Alex,
E posibil ca telefonul tau sa aiba o problema de firmware. Ai un abonament de date ? Mai verific si eu si te anunt.
Alex, o alta idee. Ai incercat sa faci upgrade-ul de software prin calculator cu Ovi Suite ?
