Petition for Creative to Release a Firmware Update for ZVM due to sound issu

I don't know what i'm doing exactly, i've just seen other threads having similar headings, and although i haven't got mine yet, i'd like creative to sort out supposed 'distorting' etc with the ZVM. This is a big problem for people using ZVMs, so please resolve this issue as soon as possible!
It would be great if this worked!

I have'nt heard any distortion on the ZVM. It gets louder than I care to listen (I have a very loud car audio system in my car) I use a 00 dollar pair of in-ear Shure headphones and I dont use any EQ or bass boost. With a decent pair of headphones you won't need any EQ with this player and without EQ or boost you can take the player to its highest volume without distortion. If you dont have some already, buy a decent pair of headphones. They will make a big difference. I don't see the point in using low end headphones with a high end audio player.Message Edited by Player8 on 03-26-200604:44 PM

EFI Firmware Update 2.0, extended "bang" sound natural?

I ran software update this morning and installed an MBP mid-2010 "EFI Firmware" update.
Here's the link:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1331
On start-up, I first heard an extended "bang" sound and the usual start-up chime then followed by a progress bar and not the usual spinning object.
Are these normal?

hey there I ran software update this morning as well and installed the MBP mid-2010 "EFI Firmware" update and the safari update. On reboot there was a loud extended beep sound. Everything seem to work normal. Does anybody know where did this came from, and if it is something to worry about. thx in advance

K...But the real prblm is, my phones previous firmware version was 410.xx.xx. And i updated it to current available ver 510.21.009.
After update , i noticed some prblmz, camera settings restore each time when using camera,
And also the main thing is the GPS. My GPS worked fine with firmware ver 410.xx.xxx . Before location lock within 30 sec or even less than a minute, but after update it struggles to get a fix on location even after 20 min. I used ovi maps, google maps, but it does not giving me the correct location. I hope if i can downgrade to previous ver , what can i do ??

Does creative ever release any driver updates???

This is in regards to the Sound Blaster Z drivers. I noticed that when Window 8.1 was released back in November? They had on the 8.1 compatibility list of upcoming support drivers for Windows 8.1 set for February. Well where is it? The current drivers are not from January 22nd like it states. These same drivers have been around since the release of the Sound Blaster Z and haven't been updated since. My question is do you guys ever update your drivers? The current drivers cause nothing but headaches and at times causes the card not to be detected at windows start up. Windows 8.1 Update was released today, and now it's even buggier then before. I've had to restart my computer two times just to get the card to be detected under windows.
It's not the card as I have tested it out on a Windows 7 machine without any issues. Seems to be a combination of Windows 8.1 with Creative drivers.

Hi ndelafe,
Apologies for your inconvenience..
Unfortunately the only source of information I can provide you regarding driver releases is from our Knowledgebase Article (link below):
http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowA...aspx?sid=61105
If there is any news on upcoming driver releases for the next few months, it should reflect on this page.
Cheers!

Firmware update won't detect my Zen Sl

This is a little different from the post just made by emetib3
I went out today and bought the Zen Sleek Photo. I install all the software, reboot, then plug in the player, and start transfering files. Awesome. Transfer around 80 MP3 and WMA files, play them, they work GREAT. Then I go to install the latest firmware update so that I can use my spiffy new MP3 player with my Audible service (not sure if my Yahoo! service needs it, but it won't hurt). ACK!? The firmware update gives me an error that my player isn't connected?!? Ok, I pull up MediaSource and MediaSource Organizer. Both show the player connected and responding (I transfer a few photos to be sure). I tried disabling the Detector in MediaSource per the other threads here and reboot - same problem.
Any suggestions? My biggest reason for buying this model was because it works with my Audible service, but without the latest firmware, it won't!Message Edited by alienn4hire on 03-0-200604:3 PM

So, after doing a little research & whatnot, it looks like the firmware I downloaded is for the Sleek, not the Sleek Photo. And there isn't a firmware update for the Sleek Photo yet. Bummer. Anyone have any idea when/if Creative will release a firmware update to give this player PlayForSure functionality and Audible capability?

Firmware Update for Samsung PM851 Family SSD's

Just purchased a Yoga 2 Pro and found that it came with a Samsung MZMTE256HMHP-000L1 256 GB SSD. This is a member of the Samsung PM851 SSD family, which is essentially an OEM clone of the PM 840 EVO. The 840 Evo has well documented slowdown problems, and as a result, Samsung has released several firmware updates to address the issue. Several other OEM's have released firmware updates for their OEM versions. However, Lenovo has not. Is there a way to update the firmware of this SSD that I'm not finding? Supposedly Samsung Magician won't work. Thanks,C

Lenovo did release an update utility for the Thinkpad series. Will this work with the Yoga 2 Pro?

M20 firmware update for wps vulnerability

Can someone advise when Cisco will be releasing a firmware update for the Valet M20 router to address the WPS vulnerability problem (e.g. disable the feature, something which *should* have been incorporated into the router in the first place).
Thanks.

Cisco... does not care... about Valet people.
The most recent firmware was released in the 1920's, I believe. It's common practice in the technology sector as a whole to consider electronics as "legacy" devices after about 6 months to a year. Wish DD-WRT ran on this, your configuration choices are pretty much SSID, router's IP and the ability to enable or disable DHCP. Compared to open source firmwares like DD-WRT and Tomato... or even compared to other router firmwares (D-Link firmwares give a lot more control and access to advanced configuration settings-- if you can handle it). I think it's pretty clear that the intended market focus for these routers were... the users who... did not plug the power cord into the router because it said it was "wireless".
Uh oh, did I say that out loud? No... I typed it, though.
The hilarious thing about this is I work as a systems/network admin and have 20 years of experience... and this router gave me trouble when I just decided to be lazy and try setting it up using WPS and the setup program. What a disaster! I finally just did a hard reset and logged in via browser and did it the real way... but I found that extremely amusing, that by dumbing things down so much, it actually made the process (to me, at least) 10x more complicated!
Oh... I threw this one in place of my normal router because it has been acting really flaky lately... it has served its time and paid its dues, surely. I picked up the M20 on clearance for like $10 I think-- for this very purpose... to keep as a backup in my closet if my normal router decided to kick the bucket.
I'm online, so... I guess this Valet M20 is serving its purpose but the lack of configurability is just plain painful! You know what would be a great idea? For Linksys/Cisco to supply an alternative "advanced user" firmware that isn't concerned with giving users enough rope to hang themselves with. People like me and other users who know what they're doing will already know how to flash it and get going-- don't even bother with user guides and pleasantries. Not needed. Also not needed? The splitting headache that swap gave me. A "5-minute task" became a "45-minute chore". I did install the iPhone admin app and found it to be just as watered down.
It seems an odd thing to me that you'd add the option to totally change the SSID or password (something that would require you to update the configuration on all of your wireless clients), yet left out access to things that would be much more practical and useful from a smartphone-- like being able to view the logs-- I would actually find that very useful. I already know that it's a Valet M20. Could have skipped that. Now, being able to reboot the router without having to get up and go to the computer or have to go to the web admin page on my phone, strain to find that option on a page only coded for desktop display... that's useful. The guest enable/disable would be useful, too... if there were any guests here. For some reason, I can't get anyone to hang out... LOL. Ok, rant is finished, I was just testing the connection and ended up here after getting the latest firmware. Thought I'd take a moment to share my thoughts since I'm biding my time, waiting on someone at the moment. This post is an artifact and memorium of the time killed typing it up. Yeah, that's sort of a self-referencing, paradox-ish type thought, hmm. Ok, hah. Really leaving now...

Firmware update for Zen Xtra, a simple quest

Hello,
I have purchased my zen xtra on July. It works just fine. When i go to "about" in the menu to see the player's version it says .03.02. I don't know if i need to upgrade the firmware because nomad's page for upgrade provides a firmware with same number: Creative NOMAD Zen Xtra firmware update version .03.02
Does it mean i already have the latest firmware version in my player or do i still have to upgrade it's
Thanks!
Al

Alrichi,
If your player already showing the exact same firmware version as with the download then you would already have the same firmware version. You do not need to update again.

Firmware updates for 6124 classic?

Will there ever be released a firmware update or updates to any of the built-in software? I'm seeing references to firmware versions newer than 4.34, but the Device Manager always reports no new firmware or software updates. Same for the "can I update" feature on this website, when I input the product code.

Yes the Map menu will remove. but you can open it on >Organise Menu. Just press Up down and you can see map.

Firmware updates for DX-L42-10A?

Not listed anywhere findable on the Dynex website. It would be nice to know where to get them.

In that case, if a manufacturer finds it necessary to release a firmware update, then the place to find it would be the manufacturer's website through customer support.
I may be going out on a limb here, but the less expensive the tv, the less likely you are to find 'updates' to their products.

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.

Hello Rarsiii,
Welcome to the Users Discussion Forum. We will forward this to our Reader team and thank you very much for sharing your thoughts.

Nokia E65 firmware update due in October

Hi all,
we just received a message from the Eseries team. They informed us that "Nokia will release a firmware update for the E65 in October for most E65 variants."
There's been plenty of discussion here among E65 owners so I hope this helps. We do not have any information about any possible changes that this update will bring but I am sure many of the discussions about the E65 here at Support Discussions have been a valuable source of information to Nokia.
I wrote all my posts from 2005-2011 as an "Admin" for this community. I still work for Nokia as an external consultant, so my rank in all posts is now "Employee".

At the moment Nokia does not publish change logs nor schedules for any product-specific updates.
E65 was an exception since there seemed to be so much concern over whether it will be supported by NSU at all (as it's not yet listed at www.europe.nokia.com/softwareupdate).

Freezing Imacs: Firmware Update 1.0

Could this be the cure?

I found out about the update from the MacUser RSS feed. In fact, I was the anonymous user the author referred to in his piece:
Yesterday, in my "Apple bombs the Mac" post, an anonymous commenter opined:
+Wonderful. Now how about them putting some of their resources towards coming up with an improved iMac video driver to stop all of the **** freezing/blue screen/black screen issues we're having?+
Apple apparently reads MacUser's anonymous comments because--brace yourselves--they today made good on their promise to remedy that issue (which apparently still plagued some users even after a initial attempt at a fix), and released a firmware update for some 20" and 24" aluminum iMacs. Apple says the patch "updates the graphics firmware on the ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro to improve system stability."
Anyway, I ran Software Update and the ATI firmware update didn't show up. According to Apple, if your machine needs it, it will show up there. They also said that if you download it yourself and try to install it (and it doesn't need it), the install will come back with an error message.
Well, having nothing to lose (I've been dealing with this s--t since I bought the computer), I downloaded the firmware update anyway and installed it.
No error message. It installed fine.
I've been testing the computer, running every graphics-intensive program flat-out and it hasn't frozen yet. FrontRow. iTunes with visualizer at the same time as I made a movie in iPhoto. iTunes with visualizer at the same time as Medal of Honor on its highest settings. Basically I loaded up everything I could, including Activity Monitor, and so far it's going well.
The irony is that this morning the computer froze when I first turned it on, and that was the last straw. I spent all afternoon on the phone with AppleCare and finally got a Return Merchandise Authorization, and NOW they come out with a fix.
Even with this "fix", though, I'm probably going to return the machine. And those of you who are unsure about whether or not to do a return, let me tell you why I'm going to.
When I was on the phone with the Customer Service guy (the TOP of the AppleCare hierarchy; first, basic rep; then, Product Specialist; then, Sr. Product Specialist; THEN the Customer Service people who can actually authorize returns), he told me something interesting. I said that I wanted to make sure I didn't encounter the same problems with a new machine and asked him if people with new machines seemed to be satisfied.
He said, "Yeah, cause they're getting the ones with the new [graphics] cards in them."
"So there were a few bad cards," I said, playing dumb.
"Yeah," he said. "But you won't have any problems now. What I hear, they pulled them."
I'm not saying the above is gospel. All I'm telling you is what I heard from the Customer Service person setting up my return authorization.
The sense I'm getting from all of this is that they know there are a number of machines out there with bad cards, and the reason why the firmware update doesn't install on all machines is that it somehow tests the card first to see if it's faulty. If it is, it does the firmware update, maybe deactivating part of the card or creating a workaround. Otherwise, why wouldn't the update be mandatory for all computers with that graphics card? It's very fishy to me. I'm going to assume that the update merely put a patch on an otherwise bad card and press forward with the return.
Hope my rambling here helps somebody.

XG270HU firmware update

I just bought this monitor on the 27th from Acer Outlet as a refurb for $399.99, today Acer released a firmware update for the OD issue with FreeSync. Update 2nd July 2015 - Acer have confirmed a firmware update has now been made available to their service teams to address any issues people are facing with the activation of overdrive with FreeSync systems. The following statement was provided to us: "Customer service and experience are priorities for Acer. Customers owning an Acer XG270HU Monitor may potentially experience slower response times when connected over DisplayPort to FreeSync compatible graphic cards of the PC. When connecting to PCs with other graphic cards or connection options there is no impact on the performance and response time. Customers which believe they are experiencing a potentially slower response time than normal, may contact the nearest Acer Service Center for a firmware update." I am wondering what I can do here, as I am using FreeSync and got the monitor specifically for that, but I have no idea if the monitor has already been updated as I just recieved it today, and I don't see any way to check the firmware myself, and I really don't want to have to send it off when I just got it today, but as I play a lot of shooters, that slow response time can be crucial. It has a 90 day manufacturer warranty, and I suppose I can take it to an Acer service center and have them do it? But I don't see any concrete listings on the Acer site to find such a center, and how much it would cost, if anything since under warranty. I am in Springfield, MO. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, just for reference in the visual difference I'm seeing, here's too pictures I tried to awkwardly snap with my phone. The left is with HDMI at 60Hz, the right is DP at 60Hz and freesync enabled (although disabling freesync doesn't seem to change the ghosting). The trail the alien leaves is significantly worse with DP. I don't even preceive the ghosting that appears in the picture that I took when using HDMI, it looks fine in real-time. But the DP ghosting is very noticable in real-time, although when I'm running at 144Hz as opposed to 60Hz (as I did in this case for a more apples-to-apples comparison to HDMI), the ghosting effect is still there but not nearly as pronounced.

RVS4000 firmware update won't update

Two days ago Cisco released an firmware update (2.0.0.3v2) for the RVS4000. I downloaded it and my router won't recognize it as a firmware upgrade. I noticed the file has a .img extension I thought perhaps it meant for me to burn an image of the firmware so that I could upgrade from a CD, but apparently Windows7 does not recognize this as a burnable image. I've downloaded the file with Firefox, IE and Safari with the same results. Can't burn the .img file and it won't be recognized by the router as a firmware upgrade.
What do Cisco?

The following is straight from the firmware release note.
RVS4000 V2 is a hardware revision of the RVS4000 product. Although all of the
features of RVS4000 are preserved in the V2 product, the firmware is
not compatible.
If your router has hardware version 2, you will see V
02 in the PIDVID label on the
bottom panel of the router.
Firmware v2.0.0.3 shares the same set of known issues as RVS4000 firmware
1.3.2.0.
