Firmware update suggestions/requests

Can anybody guide me to a place on the forums where firmware update suggestions/requests can be made for the various Canon cameras, where Canon might take notice of such suggestions/requests?
Christo

Thank you, perhaps I should clarify...I bought a new Canon G7X and assumed that Canon might release some firmware updates in future, if there are enough suggestions from users in a forum like this....sort of a wish list if you like.
I actually frequent the forums of another brand, where they have something like that, and it seems that the manufacturers of that brand watch such things on the forums of that brand, as quiet a few of suggestions made by users are eventually incorporated into firmware updates...

PRS-T1 Firmware update request

Good afternoon.
I recently (about a month ago) bougth two PRS-T1 readers (one as a gift) and I was very happy. I wanted a reader since I first knew of them and a T1 since it came out. I got a job as an intern engineer for the summer and saved to finally buy my gadget of dreams. I actually wanted to wait a little to see if a promotion came up because I lost the "free Harry Potter book combo", but I wanted to use the Reader for my school books and when the "almost free cover" promotion came up I inmediately ordered it.
Fast-forward a few weeks and I'm more than satisfied with my reader. Tablets are very common now, but everyone that sees the e-Ink screen working is thrown back in amazement. I carry it with me at all times (I hold it under my arm because I know keeping it in a bag has the risk of braking the screen) and my reading rate has improved vastly.
I've had the chance to find some areas of improvement on the Reader in the few weeks that I've had it with me and some of those were: being able to post in Facebook my reading status and maybe cite a phrase; and a native Evernote app, because while using the mobile site with the browser to view notes is actually neat, navigation and finding notes isn't, and neither is creating new notes. I supposed these were just remote dreams, knowing that just because you hope for, it doesn't mean a company will implement those features.
Well, imagine my surprise. New reader (it looks very similar to the T2 so no regrets there) with specifically the two functions I spent a month thinking would be great to have. Maybe they were so obvious it was inevitable, but still. Additionally, it seems too soon to drop support of the T1 after less than a year into its lifecycle.
So this is my request to Sony from a true fanboy: Please release a firmware update for the PRS-T1 to add the Facebook and Evernote features. I'd also suggest to remove the Google Books button and change it for one of the above or even a Wikipedia dedicated button, since I discovered that using the Reader is the best device for hours-long Wiki reading sessions.
Please consider my humble request. Maybe it turns out to be very easy to get done. Maybe not. Either way I'll keep enjoying the best e-reading experience with the best e-reader in the market and for that I'm very thankful.

Purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) ON DISK.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen

While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen and when i press the power button i hear the noise that it would make if it was going to start up. But i only see black.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Firmware Update Request - TRUE HDR Function on Cam...

Hey for any Nokia folks reading this..
One awesome feature on Android I still miss was the HDR Pro application that would take 3 photos at three different exposure values, then merge into one and then allowed tweaks to contrast and saturation.
Can you guys put this on the request list for an upcoming camera firmware update?
Programs that do HDR as a post process are **bleep** - there is no way to really effectively mimic the exposure combination and tight resolution by merging three actual photos. Glaring omission from a great phone (I have Lumia 800).
Thinking this could be added either to the camera or to Creative Design as that can already take panorama shots through it's own camera interface?
Thanks

A suggestion for next 5800XM firmware update

I hear all the time people wants widgets on their homescreen. i'm not sure if this the waht i really miss there.
instead i will be much more happy if i could have the contact bar above (and more than 4 contacts, at least 6-7 which we could roll left/right), and under this bar should be the application bar (and again, more than 4, which we could roll).
under both should be the google search (which is great), and the tasks/notes, which is my most important feature on the phone.
and how it all should work?
i want to see a full desktop when i start my phone, and when i choose my contact the other tasks/apps dissappear from the screen (or being transparent).
i don't understand why i have to choose between contacts and apps, and most of the time they both don't take advantage 5800's hugh screen (by leaving large spaces unused).
but if we could see a Facebook widget or a normal weather widget on the next firmware update, it could be nice (but less necessary) ...
good luck!
Lior R.

that is a nice idea you have there, but one must think about how practical all these changes and additions will be. if one must have, lets say 6 contact icons next to each other in one row, the icons would have to be small in order for them to fit in nicely. i do notice that the way you have imagined the new home screen is much like the old S60 3rd edition, but do note that the 3rd edition was not touch screen. there are many people who wish different things for certain handsets, mine would be that the 5800XM should have a more windows vista feel to it, with option lists and screen appearing and dissapearing into the screen as though it was another layer on top of the previous page.
you must also remember that the S60 5th edition on the 5800XM is the a new version of the software, being added on the first Nokia touchscreen smart phone, so there are still many things Nokia has to learn from the 5800XM "test" phone.
hopefully our ideas will be seen in the new future.
Kind regards,

After firmware update ipod touch not working with my Sony Home Theater DAV HDX287WC any suggestions

Is there a solution to play music from my iPod touch on my Sony Home Theater System DAV HDX 287WC after recent firmware/software upgrade? However, I am still able to play music through my ipod classic, but I am really missing the the functionality of the iPod touch with my home theater system.

- Check to see if there is a firmware update for the theater system
Sometimes this works but sometimes an IOS update breaks compatibility.
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Suggestion for next firmware update - Nokia 5800

If anyone from nokia is reading this in the next firmware update for the Nokia 5800 XM can we have the facility of have the name of the title track of a song scroll from left to right whilst the song is playing, as at the moment it scrolls once and then stops so if its a song with a long title all you can see is just half the title after its scrolled once, and also maybe a way as the song is playing of seeing the details of the song playing (like the tags for artist, Kbps, song title, album name) by clicking the onscreen softkey/options button. And also this can be extended to the contacts list where the name will scroll from left to right to show the full contact name when you press on it, at the moment it doesn't do that.

Unfortunately the care centres are the only people that can help you.
Any other methods that you may read about on other forums will void your warranty and cannot be discussed here.

HT1218 i have a windows 8 computer that is not connecting with my time capsule wifi. my other macs and windows 7 systems do connect. is this a firmware update glitch? any suggestions?

I have a windows 8 computer that is connecting poorly via wifi and my Apple time capsule to the internet. My IMac an another windows 7 based computer are connecting fine. This started 6 days ago. And, the windows 8 machine connects well via a hard Cat-5 connection to the time capsule (I'm using that now) and worked well on a wireless netgrear system over the weekend.
I'm thinking an automatic firmware update may have caused this or perhaps i need the time capsule to use something other than a default address. Those are just guesses, but I could sure use some help. Thank you.

It is hard to figure where the issue is..
Certainly if windows updated the wireless driver that can mess things up no end..
What update happened 6days ago?
What TC do you have.. ?? If it is flat one and you updated to 7.6.4 do a factory reset and reconfigure.
If that doesn't work roll the firmware back to 7.6.1 or even 7.5.2 as these are generally superior to windows.
There is no update for TC gen5 yet.

Lock Code request after firmware update on E71

After I updated successful (message was displayed by software updater) my phone, it makes a restart.
And asked for the "Lock Code". I never used the lock code function and I never changed it before.
The default Lock Code "12345" mentioned within the documentation is not working.
Re-installation of the firmware is not working as I am unable to reinstall "PC Suite Support" due to the fact that I am not able to confirm the installation on my phone. I went to the Nokia shop and they told me they have to sent the cell phone in for repair and this can takes up to four weeks. This is totally unacceptable. Until today I was I fan of Nokia phones but this has changed dramatically.

Hi
I also experienced the same problem. Phone was working perfectly prior to Firmware Update.
I had never used or changed the lock code. Initially I thought everything was fine because the
Firmware Update was reported to have been a success.
I then went through the process of selecting language (English) and setting date and time.
However, after doing all this I was then asked for a Lock Code.
I was a little bemused but tried the default '12345'. This did not work.
I tried all the other usual defaults; '0000', '1111', '1234' etc, still no joy.
After a little swearing I decided to ring the Nokia help line. After explaining the problem I was advised to go to my nearest Care Centre. I was also told that if the cause of my problem was as a result of the 'faulty' firmware update then they should do it free of charge.
Off to the Care Centre then (30 mile round trip)!!!! They rigged it up to their 'kit' and confirmed that
the Lock Code had not been changed and was still set to '12345'. They could not access the phone
either. They now have my phone and are going to try and sort it and if they cannot sort it will be
sending off to Nokia. This should then be sorted under warranty (although I would argue the cause
of the problem is a glitch in the Firmware Update and not a fault with the phone).
Let's hope that when I get the phone back it will all be hunky dory!!!
It's also worth noting that even though I could not access the phone directly by using its own keys
I could use all the functions when rigged up to my computer through Nokia PC Suite. I could access
all contacts, messages, calendar etc. I was also able to send and receive SMS. If the phone was
locked then surely I shouldn't have been able to do this????
Hope the above sheds some light on your problem. Just be sure that you are not fobbed off by
either the help line or the 'techies' in the shop. At the end of the day if you have not messed about
with the lock code before the firmware update you should be able to get it sorted free of charge if
the phone is still under warranty. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Request Battery Firmware Update Utilty for Lenovo B490

I use a power manager in my laptop B490, my battery 6cell . Design capacity 48Wh but reduce to 40.40Wh , and full charge capacity 42.82Wh. I will to restore design capacity my battery but Change the option from "Automatically optimize for my battery lifespan" to the "Always fully charge" not affect.
and i try download Battery Firmware Update Utility , not useful for my batter FRU P/N : 45N1049.
Please help me :x

Von so einem Quatsch, den der so genannte Techniker angeraten hat, würde ich auf jedem Fall absehen. Auf der Supportseite von Lenovo ist eindeutig zu entnehmen, dass die BIOS Versionen 1.25/1.20 aus dem Jahr 2012 und die 1.15/1.17 aus dem Jahr 2013 stammen. Ich denke, dass es sich um unterschiedliche Geräte handelt und entsprechend eine bestimmte BIOS Reihe unterstützt wird.
Im Readme steht:
Versions 1.25 (for BIOS ID 6Zxxxxxx-based computer)
1.20 (for BIOS ID 6Yxxxxxx-based computer)
und
Versions 1.15 (for Machine types: 0217 and 0250)
1.17 (for Machine type: 0221)
Ich denke, dass ich mit meiner Vermutung richtig liege.
Wo du eine BIOS Version 1.18 beziehen kannst, das weiß ich nicht. Vermutlich gibt es keine neuere Version. Ich würde auch nicht krampfhaft probieren eine falsche aufzuspielen.
Meine Frage ist, wie lange die Akku, so im Normalbetrieb reicht?

*** E51 GREAT PHONE BUT NEED A FIRMWARE UPDATE... ...

Hi
TO THE NOKIA FIRMWARE UPDATE STAFF:
I bought that great phone NOKIA E51 but it needs a FIRMWARE UPDATE because the built'in camera gives photo(and videos too!) in VERY VERY "green" color that's too bad (MY OLD 6630 , so only 1,3 megapixel is best in photo quality against my actually E51..!)
*** SO PLEASE REMOVE THE GREEN COLOR TENDENCY IN THE PHOTO! ***
ANOTHER AND LAST problem I have noticed during mine along E51 testing is the integrate REAL PLAYER VERSION has VERY VERY big problems during *MP4* VIDEO PLAYBACK (MP4 VIDEOS MADE ON PURPOSE FOR MOBILE), VIDEO APPEARS In jerks (ESPECIALLY IN FULL SCREEN!) And SOME TIME IT BLOCKS DURING PLAYBACK!
*** SO PLEASE A NEW VERSION OF REAL PLAYER IN THE NEXT E51 FIRMWARE ***
FOR ALL THE REST THE E51 PHONE IS GREAT AND PRICE TOO (200€ IN ITALY), I BELIVE IT'LL BE A BEST SELLER -BUT- ONLY IF THE PROBLEMS I LISTED ABOVE WILL BE CORRECTED!!
i got latest firmware version: 100.34.20

Hi,
I wrote to Nokia regarding this issue using the Nokia India site, and the Nokia for Business site. I also sent an email to [email protected]
Here is the text of the email:
Hi,
I bought my Nokia E51 four days back, and I am VERY happy with the
phone. However, I feel that there are some shortcomings with the
phone, which need to be addressed by firmware upgrades. I am listing
them here:
1) The camera has a VERY noticeable green tint
2) The video playback in full screen mode using RealPlayer is VERY
slow and choppy
3) In the "Missed Calls" part of the call log, there is NO way to
determine WHICH number of the contact was the call missed - "Mobile
Number", "Tel.(home)", "Tel.(office)" or what? The only way to
determine is to call back using the same screen, which is VERY
counterintuitive!
You can have a look at some more people agreeing with me here -
/discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&thread.id=14028
and the problem 3) described in detail here -
/discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&thread.id=15956
Apart from these 3 problems, I am VERY VERY happy with the E51 - it
lives up to all the promises it makes! Way to go, Nokia! I request you
to address those 3 issues as fast as possible!
Thanks and regards,
I request ALL other users of the phone to please contact Nokia similarly, to have these issues resolved ASAP. If someone can suggest more ways of contacting Nokia regarding this issue, please tell me! Thanks!

Firmware update message whenever I try to go online with HotSpot!

Every time I turn on my HotSpot - Verizon MIFI451OL - i get a message for Verizon EvDo Rev. AE firmware updates. I attempt to sign in using the only password I have, and it refuses, stating my password is incorrect. I have two passwords, one used in the event I add another device and the one for MyVerizon. It asks for my MIFI login, and I don't have one and cannot find out where to get one. I am unable to upgrade. No I need an upgrade for the HotSpot or am I being jacked around by some creep? When I press a favorites button, it replaces the verizon screen and I'm online. What is this?
Another thing I've recently noticed is a second internet connection showing up when I turn on the HotSpot. I have seen this before, it's unsecured and I don't use it. The most recent one has a "Connect Automatically" window, which is checked. I click on it to remove the checkmark, but it always comes back! Please help me straighten this stuff out.
I would also like to report that ever since I was able to start my MyVerizon account, (3 months after buying my HotSpot) I have enjoyed the service. I've only had service drop out one time, during a storm. I can monitor my usage, and it's everything I wanted!
Thanks for your help!

Hello Seething,
I apologize for the delayed response but I am happy to help you get the firmware update. The password that is being requested is specific to the Mi-Fi administration page. If you have never physically changed this password it will be "admin." Also, without having the most recent firmware update it will be difficult to troubleshoot the random open connection you are seeing. I would suggest completing the upgrade and then reporting back on the status of that connection. Please let me know if I can assist further.
