Is every ios release overtakes the previous firmware version ?

Well I dont Know from where to start ....
I am using an Iphone 5 the problem is I am stuck in the recovery mode due to error 1 which is obviosly a hardware issue and most likely to be a baseband problem but here it is why am I asking this question because I was running ios 7.0.6 and suddenly the iphone became in ''Searching..." mode so tried the factory settings by erasing all data and settings but couldn't help so I went DFU mode and restored my iphone using 7.1 IPSW and Wizardry the iphone worked for just one day then the same problem ''Searching..'' .
So I went DFU mode again but this time I let itunes to update to the latest firmware version which is IOS 7.1.1 and then amazingly the phone worked for few hours but then again same problem '' Searching..." and BTW EVERY THING WORKING FINE EVEN WIFI EXCEPT THAT NO CALLS,TEXTS OR CELLULAR DATA AND THERE IS NO IMEI OR FIRMWARE.
So I went DFU for the third time but I got the error 1 alert message and Now I am stuck in Recovery mode.So .. Is that means that every IOS release over takes the previous firmware ... which means if I waited for the next IOS 7.1.2 or IOS 8 hopefully I will be able to get out from the recovery mode and run away from the error 1 alert monster ? ... and I know the problem searching might occur again but I think I might give up then for this handset then. But I want to try all the solutions and options I have in my hands since I got no AppleCare/Store in my Country

It is true that updates may potentially bring changes to some firmware as well as software, but not every thing changes in each update. If your hardware is failing compatibility with the current firmware, I would bet money that you are going to have issues with future versions as well. The iOS assumes that your hardware is in working order when it was designed and a failure in that hardware results in these errors and the inability to operate using the firmware. To assume that a different firmware (especially a future firmware update) will fix you issue is close to absurd, unless that firmware version made all iPhones (or even most) have hardware communication issues. Until that day, Apple is not going to alter the firmware. Also you stated that it worked then stopped multiple times and now you receive error 1, which during the update basically means the iPhone is not passing the hardware test, so even with a future update, the hardware is not going to pass the diagnostic test when installing firmware, therefore you will still need service.
Even if you have to send it off to a friend in the country of purchase, it's going to be better and faster than waiting on something that has a 1% chance of success.

Has the firmware upgrade on the time capsule been fixed to allow iphones on the wireless network? I reloaded the previous firmware edition and it fixed the problem. thx

I checked beofre on the support communities when I was having trouble with the iphone 4 not being able to connect to the time capsule wireless after upgradeing the firmware. When I reloaded the previous firmware version, the iphone wireless problem was gone. Now the time capsule is asking to upgrade to that same newer version of firmware.
I don't want to do it until the iphone 4 wireless connection problems have been addressed. thanks

......will other users on the primary network (not the private wifi one) be able to access my files on my TCapsule?
No, if you have not provided them with the Time Capsule device password.
Users will be able to "see" the Time Capsule icon under the SHARED heading in the Finder on their Macs, but they will not be able to access the drive or the files.
I had also been thinking about wirelessly extending the wifi network (a linksys N router) but I guess that will allow everyone to access my Time Capsule?
Same answer as above.

I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly. How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly. New songs are not showing up on the ipod display but when I view the device on my computer, they are in the playlist but there is a dashed circle beside the missing songs. It previously synced perfectly before the IOS update. How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.

What is the latest Firmware version

Can anyone please advise what is the latest firmware version for the Torch 9800. Thank you.

Yep, follow this instruction:
Device operating system releases are "released" by specific carriers once they have certified and trained their support techs, but still, you are able to load to any carrier's same model by following the instructions below.
Download the OS file from the link I gave you above.
OR
First locate your carrier and the OS file you wish to use.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
Do a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > Backup. Close Desktop Manager upon completion.
1. Download the OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
2. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml." (You might have another Vendor.xml file hiding on your computer. Open Windows Explorer and under the Organize button (on Windows 7, there are similar tools for Vista and XP) click on "Folder and search options." Under the View tab, make sure that your computer is set to show hidden folders and files. Once you've done this, search your C:\ drive for "Vendor.xml".)
3. Plug in BB and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.
**Starting with the later OS6 releases, there are now three copies of VENDOR.XML
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader (for 32-bit Windows XP/Vista/7)
==========OR============
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader (for 64-bit Windows Vista/7)
C:\Documents and Settings\*name*\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
C:\Documents and Settings\*name*\Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
You can also just search for VENDOR.XML. Make sure that you choose ADVANCED SEARCH and include hidden files. It should show the file in at three locations. Delete every copy that it finds.

Thank you David ... for links to previous firmware versions

Thank you david for posting the links to previous firmware versions. I posted a thread about the WRT54G (V8) and Easylink Advisor not recognizing this router after firmware upgrade. The timing of your post is excellent.
Just for some more info for WRT54G V8 users. I had the Easylink Advisor working before firmware update. After firmware update it still recognized router but NOT to set up new security settings. Everything was working and dropped connectivity issues seemed to be resolved so I was happy enough. But I had a conflict I thought was related to the Easylink advisor intsall (it was). So, I uninstalled and reinstalled. Easylink would not recognize the router at all afterward.
I think that rolling back to previous version firmware, then going through set up of Easylink advisor should restore functionality to the app. (except for security changes) but I havent tried it yet.
I need the new firmware to keep from dropping internet connection. So, I am hoping that I will only lose access to security changes through Easylink advisor when re-flashing with the new firmware again. We'll see.
I assume Linksys will upgate the Easylink Advisor in the near future so that it will recognize the WRT54G V8 router with latest firmware 8.00.4?
Thanks again David and good luck, all.

Yes, that was good news for V:M users but when are Creative going to release new firmware for the Zen Nano Plus and the Muvo players so that it contains FM Recording again?Could the Mods try and find out, please??PBMessage Edited by PeeBee on 2-09-20060:48 AM

I am trying to download the latest version of iTunes to my PC (windows XP) and I keep getting an error message or two. One is that it can't uninstall the previous itunes version, the other is that it can't find itunes.msi.

I am trying to download the latest version of iTunes to my PC (windows XP) and I keep getting an error message or two. One is that it can't uninstall the previous itunes version, the other is that it can't find itunes.msi. I have tried removing the old version in add/remove programs, but it says the same error. I tried deleting every thing that has itunes in the file/folder/etc and it didn't help.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

What was the last firmware version for the Zen Micro before M

I would like to know what was the last firmware version for the Zen Micro before the MTP firmware?
Please make sure you are 00% on this.
Thankyou.

I think it does, but I'm not sure; since I wanted MTP, I only used .x firmware long enough to save the original Creative test files (with MediaSource, not ZMME) before upgrading to 2.x. And yes, I had to li've with 2..02's shorter battery life until 2.20.05 came out.
May I ask why you want to go back to .x firmware? The only thing that will get you is the ability to use it with Win98SE/2000/Me--but only if you can install Creative drivers on every PC you use it with. MTP requires WinXP SP or 2 and WMP 0, but doesn't need any Creative software at all to work. (Microsoft has made an MTP driver for Win98SE/2000/Me, but it requires customization and may not be supported by other software. I'm tinkering a bit with the customization part right now.)
There are other pitfalls in changing Micro firmware families, in either direction--you'll lose all the files on your Micro, you'll have to install a different ZMME (and I've heard non-MTP ZMME isn't quite as full-featured as MTP ZMME), and you'll need a new plug-in for MediaSource to work.

What's the latest firmware version for the Xperia Tablet Z?

What's the latest firmware version for the Xperia Tablet Z?
According to the Swedish and British Sony website, the latest version for the Xperia Tablet Z is 10.1.1.A.1.253 released on 17th of May.
But this is the latest version for the Xperia Z (phone) not the tablet Z... Or am I wrong?
It's a bit confusing, when the manufacturer cannot keep track of the phone and tablet...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Depends on if you have the WiF version or the LTE version. For LTE the latest is 10.1.1.A.1.253 and for WiFi it's 10.1.C.0.344.

Slow startup after installing on my StorCenter ix2-200 CE the latest firmware version 3.2.10.30101

Hi,
After installing some weeks ago the new firmware version 3.2.10.30101, the startup of my device is taking consistently around 45-60 minutes to be full operative, accessing to its web interface or being mapped and available the different disk units that i have configured.
What about the corresponding warranty that should have the new firmware? If it has being published and recommended by Lenovo, it should have the corresponding period of warranty.
So:
1.- Has the root cause been detected? Should we have a new firmware version solving it? Because it seems downgrade to previous firware version is not possible.
2.- Could you confirm a possible workaround? Disconnect network cable and startup device till consisten white led...?
3.- For an alternative solution, can it help to rewrite this firmware version? How is the procedure?
4.- Does full factory reset help? If yes, i can look for making a backup, and try it.
Waiting for your suggestion of next steps.
Thanks for your support.
Javi

Hello jdehoyosr
My answer is still the same. You would not have been able to factory reset the unit and retain your data without backing up the data first. I have already clearly explained that the backup and restore feature could have allowed you to backup your settings/configurations to be restored after the factory reset. You would have still needed to restore your data from the backup after the factory reset regardless if you had used the configuration backup and restore option for your settings.
The configuration backup and restore would not have been able to the firmware glitch that you were experiencing. If would have had a previous backup file, it would only have applied settings that you had previously backed up. Depending on which restore option was picked it could have also wiped your data.

Is the new Firmware version of 5800 supports VoIP?

I want just want to ask for those whoe already updated their 5800 to version 40 firmware if their phone already supports VoIP. I've read on some forums that Nokia 5800 doesn't support VoIP. Is the new update already have like the VoIP support of N97?

No, it's voip capabilities are exactly the same as previous firmware versions so it still does not support true native voip like the N97 does.
The 5800 is highly unlikely to ever receive this feature. As before you will need to use a program such as fring or nimbuzz for voip on the 5800.

You can upgrade immediately. I upgraded mine by following instructions from the Nokia website
That's not necessarily true: it depends on whether your network's version is available.
Some networks are not so good at supporting firmware releases, for example I have an N80 on Vodafone and the latest firmware version available for my phone is two releases behind what's available for other N80 users.Message Edited by patc on 10-May-200711:15 AM

Is iTunes 11.1.5 compatible with Mac OSX 10.6.8? If not how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

Problem: Recently when I open iTunes it doesn't work; the little pinwheel just keeps spinning.
I have tried leaving it on, as suggested by another user, for over 12 hours. I didn't work.
I think the new iTunes version, 11.1.5, is not compatible with the operating system; Mac OSX 10.6.8. If this is so, how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

You need to be updated to iTunes 11.2.2.
You might want to consider running the combo updater over your install to refresh your files.
Combo updater: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update v.1.1 - 1.09 GB
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
After running the combo updater, select Software Updater and update iTunes.
If iTunes fails to open after updating, hold down the Option key when launching iTunes. It will ask you to locate your iTunes Library.
Note: I've seen users with their iTunes Library on an external drive spin like this when the drive was failed to be seen in Disk Utility. Run Repair Drive on the external drive to fix this issue.
