IPhone :: How To Update Old Device
Feb 20, 2010
Ok, I've got an early model 3GS serial from week 23.I originally jailbroke it using purplera1n on its original 3.0 firmware. I didn't bother doing any of the updates since then, since everything was working pretty well. As a precaution I have stored my hashed keys with Cydia.
Now there are starting to be newer apps that require firmware 3.1 so I figured I would update.I've read through a few tutorials and it isn't 100% clear what update path I should go. I have tried Pwnage tool on my Macbook and it doesn't seem to detect my phone to put into DFU mode. I have a few questions hopefully someone here can answer:
1) Should I even be using Pwnage tool? Or should I be using blackra1n? Does it matter?
2) With Pwnage tool, when it asks if my phone has been 'pwned' before, should I answer yes or no? When I answer no, it doesn't detect my phone. When I answer yes, it tells me to put the phone into DFU mode myself and reestore using iTunes. Is this safe to do?

I updated my BB 9700 to v 5.0.0.545 (Platform 5.1.0.140)and subsequently pressing on the "mute" button no longer turns on/off "standby mode.I tried the mute button during a phone call and that works fine. So I don't think the issue is hardware.Plus it was all fine before the device update.

The other day my phone was scrolling in the wrong direction so I took the battery out and put it back in, the phone showed the BlackBerry sign and the progress bar it got just over the half way mark & stopped, I left it like that for about 20minutes to no avail.I must have taken the battery out about 15-20 times and it still didn't get any further, I called T-Mobile they said to take my phone into a shop.Well I plugged my phone into my laptop and it switched on after a while, I updated the software on my laptop & then my phone. It deleted my messages, numbers, emails, bbm, facebook & BlackBerry aps. It also stopped me receiving MMS messages & I was unable to view Excel spreadsheets ( I have fixed the Excel issue via Desktop Software installing the app). It also has changed my sms messages back to the old settings (Not the bubble like) & the keyboard lock is no longer the mute key on the top of the phone.I've plugged my phone in again and it says I already have the latest updates. (Which clearly I do not).The version on my handset says: V4.6.1.314 (Platform V4.2.0.135 i tried to update from the T-Mobile local site via the BlackBerry carrier but I do not know the log in details.

When I click device update in MotoCast ->I get new software is avaialble for your MOTOACTV.
Current Version: MA 1.6.7 N8
New Version: MA 1.6.13 N8
I press 'Update Now'. A dialog appears Download 0% - then another dialog pops up "The update could not be downloaded. Prease try again. If the problem persisits, please visit our support site. Your device has not been updated."
I have been trying for 2 days with the same result as above. I tried unplugging device, using a different USB port, etc. nothing seems to work.

I plugged in the Moto and discovered that there was a device update. In light of problems I was having (described in a separate thread) I did not have time to let it run. Decided to do so in the evening, but was unprepared for the rigamarole I encountered. The device would not update until I updated Motocast, which took FOREVER. And after all of that, the Motoactv won't even update. The device manager box tells me that my Motoactv is running the most current software version and that that version is N/A. 0 for 2; my device is not running the current version and the version it is running is 1.7.2 N8, not N/A. That is not the version number I saw this morning when Motocast informed me that there was an update available.

I own a nokia 5800 on t-mobile UK. I'm on a mac so cannot use the device update software. I entered *#0000# and tried to update it. However I got asked to create a new server profile. I read some 'default' nokia server settings on another forum and entered them but received a message saying server not responding. I've tried some other server settings I found but none of it works. I really would like to update it!

I have Nokia 5800 phone, whose firmware I want to update to v40. But the latest NSU is not able to identify my phone. Whereas PC Suite and Ovi Suite will readily identify my phone. Ovi Suite' Software Update is able to detect it's firmware '30.0.011' whereas NSU cannot identify the phone itself. Product code of my phone is 0575590 and I want to update it to v40.

I have been reciving texts and popups telling me to update my phone, so I tryed to on the sute, it confermed there was an update available, it started to update then about half way windows (xp) started to try to install drivers and the x6 was dissconected and would reconect, I then researched the problem and found the same thimg had happened to other people on the nokia boards, however using windows 7,the advice was to dissable auto driver instalations.
I then, in system properties, hardware, under the driver heading selected windoesupdate and selected never search windoes for driver updates. i'm not sure if this is the correct thing to have done but was the only thing that came to mind that may stop it. Restarted pc and tryed updating my phone agane, now it thinks it has the update but it dident finish, so I selected renstall the update and the same thing happened but now no windows driver popups it just dissconnects and i get the same error message.I have hard restarted the phone in the hope it will wipe the part update so I can then use the 0000 to update it on the hand set, but to no luck, it is desplaying the recent firmware number and there is no option to reinstall from the hand set just to update it.

I wanted to update my device software (currently v4.6.1) to the v5.0. However when i try to run the update it tells me i must have a data plan. Do you think/know if it is possible to activate my data plan for, lets say, a month, install the new version, and then deactivate de data plan and keep using the v5.0 with no problems?
(has anyone tried this?)
(is it worth the update?)
(is it worth the risk?)

I tried to upgrade my software for my BB CUrve 9300, wirelessly but now the phone enters a reset loop with the message:
Abnormal reset detected during update. Press any key to return to pre-update configuration
I have tried everything, pulling the battery, the sim card, the memory card but its still on the loop. I found a similar post from 2010 below which is the same problem but no resolution was made.[URL]...
