Phone Firmware Updates

I have looked at the page, and haven't been able to locate anything about firmware updates.
Basically, what I am looking for is find something regarding the next firmware updates. Specifically, what functionality is apple working on adding into the iPhone? (MMS, copy & paste)...?
Also, where is there somewhere PUBLIC, and STICKIED that iPhone users can REQUEST such upgrades to these devices.
I have seen such threads at other forums, yet I am not able to find one here. (perhaps I just missed it).
I love my iPhone, but hate the functionally, I can't copy & paste, can't send/recieve MMS, can't forward a text, etc. etc. etc...... the list goes on...

Its true, I didn't, no where was it mentioned either when I saw their ad that they would not allow something so rudimentary as copy and paste , something that's been around since the 80's I think, how could one suspect this. That's not exactly my fault, nor would it have been my fault if for example their keyboard didn't have, lets say, a space bar. After using a couple of other similar pda/phones (not the blackberry) that allowed so many things that apple didn't, how can anyone imagine the iphone would be lacking such obviously needed things. The thing that attracted me to the iphone was the screen size, maps, and supposed speedy internet. Anyway, I'm waiting on this new Nokia 5800, I think that's the model. The new google phone looks good also but we'll see. All I know is, as is, the iphone is not for me and I haven't been recommending it to anyone. Its funny to see people squinting when trying to explain that the phone can't copy and paste, and that if you want to bring some docs with you, you have to buy 3rd party software, figure out how to set up the software with your wifi, which only works 50% of the time if you're lucky, how such a big phone's speaker is so quiet that I have to put it on vibrate and still miss calls because I can't hear anything most of the time, ya, you can surf the internet but only part of the internet because the iphone doesn't support flash and a great percentage of the internet uses flash. I recently was trying check out new car prices only I couldn't because the 3 I tryed were using flash (I guess) and wouldn't load, and so on and so on and so on.

Phone firmware update over http

Hi all,
a former colleague of mine told a customer that starting CUCM 9 phone firmware updates would happen over http and no longer using tftp. Now that customer is asking me about it, and I can't seem to find any indication there to support this. Am I not looking in the right places?
Kind regards,
Tom

Hey Guys,
This definetly seems poorly documented. Although you can find a reference here that it does exists.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/port/9_0_1/CUCM_BK_T98E8963_00_tcp-port-usage-guide-90/CUCM_BK_T98E8963_00_tcp-port-usage-guide-90_chapter_01.html
Endpoint or Gateway
Unified CM
6970 / TCP
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) between master and proxy servers.
HTTP service from the TFTP server to phones and gateways.
Apparently CME folks did a much better work document this. I would file a documentation bug if I were you.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucme/admin/configuration/guide/cmeadm/cmesystm.html
HFS Download Support for IP Phone Firmware and Configuration Files
Legacy IP phones access the TFTP server to download firmware and configuration files but Cisco Unified CME 8.8 enhances download support for SIP phone firmware, scripts, midlets, and configuration files using the HTTP File-Fetch Server (HFS) infrastructure.
In Cisco Unified CME 8.8 and later versions, SIP phones use an HTTP server as the primary download service when it is configured and access a TFTP server as a secondary or fallback option when the HTTP server fails.
Note When the HFS download service is not configured, SIP phones automatically access the TFTP server.
The following scenario shows a successful download sequence using an HTTP server:
An IP phone initiates TCP connection to port 6970. A connection is established and an internal request for a file is sent to the HTTP server. The phone receives the HTTP response status code of 200, signifying that the download is successful.
The following scenario shows a download sequence that begins with an IP phone using an HTTP server to download files and ends with a TFTP server as a fallback option when the initial download attempt fails:
An IP phone initiates TCP connection to port 6970 but is unable to establish a connection. The phone contacts the TFTP server and sends an internal request for a file. The file is successfully downloaded from the TFTP server.
The following scenario shows how a download sequence that starts with an HTTP server does not always fall back to the TFTP server when the initial download attempt fails:
An IP phone initiates TCP connection to port 6970. A connection is established and an internal request for a file is sent to the HTTP server. The phone receives the HTTP response status code of 404, signifying that the file requested could not be found. Because the file cannot be found, the request is not sent to the TFTP server.
Note The configuration files are shared by the HTTP and TFTP servers. However, the firmware files are different for each server.
Enabling the Service
To enable the HFS download service, the underlying HTTP server must be enabled first because the HFS infrastructure is built on top of an existing IOS HTTP server.
Router(config)# ip http server
This HFS infrastructure enables multiple HTTP services to co-exist. The HFS download service runs on custom port 6970 but can also share default port 80 with other services. Other HTTP services run on other non-standard ports like 1234.
Router(config)# ip http server
Router(config)# ip http port 1234
The HFS download service starts when the following is configured in telephony-service configuration mode.
For the default port:
Router(config-telephony)# hfs enable
For the custom port:
Router(config-telephony)# hfs enable port 6970
Note If the entered custom HFS port clashes with the underlying IP HTTP port, an error message is displayed and the command is disallowed.
In the following example, port 6970 is configured as the IP HTTP port. When the HFS port is configured with the same value, an error message is displayed to show that the port is already in use.
Router (config)# ip http port 6970
Router (config)# telephony-service
Router (config-telephony)# hfs enable port 6970
rror Message Invalid port number or port in use by other applicationxplanation The HFS port number is already in use by the underlying IP HTTP server.
Recommended Action Use an HFS port that is different from the underlying IP HTTP port.
Note Because IP phones are hardcoded to use port 6970 to connect to Cisco Unified CME, you must search for other applications running on port 6970 and assign them with ports different from 6970 to prevent a failure in connecting to Cisco Unified CME.
For configuration information, see the “SIP: Enabling the HFS Download Service” section.

Language after phone firmware update

Hi, I have a Nokia 6233 (product code:0538465), purchased in Slovenia and ofcourse it has slovenian language. The reason why I wish to update my phone is, because it restarts really often when I am using the internet. My main concerne is now: Will I have Slovenian language after I update? Phones current firmware version is v5.10. Thanks for any helpful answers.

If your phone was originally purchased with Slovenian language support, that updating to new firmware will not result in language loss. However if you phone is originally made for other market then you will loose your language.

Nokia C7 Cell phone firmware update?

When I tried to update the firmware in a Mexican made Nokia C7 (Latest available software for your device: Version:: 013.016), it said it had the latest but when I updated the same model made in Hungary the firmware was (Latest available software for your device: Version:: 025.007) much newer than in the former one. Why is this?

Updates vary by region an product code this is why, this also includes operator branded devices.

*** 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!

Can anyone help.

You are entering them wrong. All of those codes need a star (*) at the start before they will work.

My phone is stuck on Firmware Update

I cannot turn my phone on or off, it continues to state Firmware Update: Do not unplug the USB connection until the process is complete but I never had it connected to USP cord?

boleyman,
Yikes! I know that this would bug me just the same and we want to get your device back up and running for you. For starters, what model of device are we working with today? Most Androids will reset by holding the power button at the same time as the volume down key for about 15-20 seconds. Give this a try to see if the device responds and keep us posted. Have there been any recent changes since this started? New apps or software updates?

You can try putting the iPhone into DFU mode and see if that will let you restore and remove the jailbreak:
http://osxdaily.com/2010/06/24/iphone-dfu-mode-explained-and-how-to-enter-dfu-mo de-on-your-iphone/
Some jailbreaks cannot be removed and in some cases will permanently disable your iPhone. If that happens to you, then you will have to buy a new iPhone; Apple will provide no support, warranty or out-of-warranty, for a jailbroken iPhone.
You're on your own from here. We can provide no further help with a jailbroken iPhone in these forums.
Good luck.

Lync 2010 Polycom CX600 phones fail to sign-in after firmware update

We're running the latest version of Lync2010 in our environment of approximately 1,500 Polycom CX600 phones across 5 Standard edition sites. After rolling out the latest firmware update 4.0.7577.4444 this weekend about 10% of the phones do not come back
online as the user they were previously signed as.The firmware was approved on a Friday evening and Monday morning we were still experiencing the issue.
The phone is stuck in the following error message:
"Sign-in Error
Cannot sign in. Please verify your sign-in address domain\username, and password and try again."
The phone did update to the latest version of firmware but is stuck in "limbo". Doing a traffic dump on the port it's connected to did not reveal anything as the phone is not attempting to communicate with any servers. Only a power
cycle (unplugging POE LAN port) makes the phone sign back in. Just to clarify, after the power cycle the phone signs back in on its own as it seems that it still stored the user's sign in information.
We connect to the voice network via LLDP and we have Alcatel-Lucent 6250 switches that these phones connect to. We also have the DHCP options for the phones to find our voice network for areas that do not have LLDP capable switches.
Just to recap, about 150 phones experienced this issue across all sites and we cannot narrow it down to anything specific about the environment. Performing a power cycle fixes this issue but it is extremely annoying.
Any suggestions?

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/771ab6d9-908f-4545-b94f-ef51ab0cca60/polycom-cx600-cant-sign-in-after-firmware-upgrade?forum=lyncvoice
Try to move back to the previous version or you may need to reset each phone manually.

Lync Phone Edition and wpad.dat - using proxy for firmware updates

Our Lync Phone Edition devices seem determined to use our proxy server for firmware updates, even though the server is directly accessible.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a workaround?
The phones are learning of the wpad.dat file via DHCP 252. The wpad file has several rules that should be causing a bypass but none is taking effect. The proxy is dropping the traffic because it doesn't match a rule.

N97 Firmware update v2 bricked phone

I own an unlocked N97 in the UK, and after waiting discovered that the v2 firmware has finally been released!
So, I backed up my phone, installed the firmware update (which completed successfully) and the phone rebooted itself.
It booted fine, and then the annoying email wizard popped up and the 'phone stopped responding. I left it for 15 or so minutes to see whether it would start responding to unlocking etc and it didn't. I tried switching it off using the power button and, as I expected, it didn't even register that I'd pressed the button. After a couple of minutes of messing around with it I removed and replaced the battery and switched it back on... now it just sits on the white screen with the blue Nokia logo, no sounds, nothing.
I have tried leaving it to see if it finishes the boot process (after half an hour it's still sitting there...), I have tried taking the battery out for 10 minutes before trying to turn it back on and the same thing happens.
Anyone got any ideas, or is this going to require yet another replacement handset? (given that this is now the second N97 I'm on...)
Out of the two N97 owners in this house, we've now had 5 N97s between us, I can't say I'm impressed.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hard reset the phone using the keys and you should be fine.
Turn your phone off AND simultaneously press these four buttons circled in red.

Space bar
Backspace button

Phone Software Update: Razr v3c, Bluetooth and iSync...

This morning, I found a software (read: firmware) update for my Razr. I installed the updated and was pleasantly surprised that on my Windows PC the OBEX file transfers started working. (Now I can finally get my pictures off of it.)
After getting upstairs and re-pairing the phone to my Mac, I was annoyed to learn that the update doesn't allow me to use Bluetooth to sync my contacts, anymore. (Although, USB still works correctly.)
This is more of an FYI to those who run across the same "Software Update" from Motorola.
