Unable to update new carrier setting

unable to update new carrier setting for iPhone 3G, it says error occurred (0xE8000001)

I am having the same problem.
Bought iPhone 3G on Vodafone AU.
Paid Voda to unlock it.
When I plug in to itunes I get a 'your carrier settings can now be updated would you like to proceed' sort of message. The first time I connect it then says 'Carrier Settings Updated' Yet i get no signal.
NEXT TIME I sync, it tries again, and then i get the same error as listed in this post.
I've tried this on TWO PC's (in every port!) and on a MacBook Pro (both USB ports).
I initially thought maybe Vodafone were just being slack in unlocking the phone, but have since found out that APPLE do the unlocking at their end and have basically put my IMEI number on their 'white list', so every time I sync it checks with Apple and lets me have a different version of software that unlocks the phone.
It's very frustrating, because the restore process takes about 15 mins, so I keep just trying random different things, but no one has any firm instructions.
Can I please confirm this is what I am meant to be doing.
1. Swap SIM to NEW sim.
2. Plug in to iTunes.
3. Carrier settings will then update.
4. RESTORE iPhone 3G.
5. SHOULD BE ALL OK... but after restore it will say 'please insert a compatible SIM that is unlocked. (ie, put the vodafone SIM back in!)
Am I missing something obvious? or is this an Apple issue.

  • UNABLE TO UPDATE NEW SOFTWARE VERSION IN MY NOKIA ...

    Please help me!i would like very much to watch online movies via youtube but i cant,when i search for new software updates on my phone,it says no new software update available.what should i do,i once updated a new software of xpress music on my nokia and i was surely watching movies on youtube before it was attacked by some viruses,when i flashed it,it came to its original software and now i am unable to watch online movies!please help me what should i do to enable video streaming on my phone?

    The Nokia 111 is unfortunately not capable of playing streaming video from the web, so it will not play YouTube videos.
    If your phone reports no available software then it means that you already have the latest version. Series 40 phones like these have a simple Java-based operating system into which changes cannot be made without the user's explicite consent, and so they are not subsceptible to viruses

  • Creative Cloud Desktop Application Manager Unable to Update  New Version of PS CC

    Windows 7, 64 bit
    Received notification of new software for PS CC.  Desktop application manager appears, with a creative cloud note over the desktop app mgr saying:  " A new ver of CC is available.  Update now?"  I click update and launching creative cloud desk appears and disappears.  Note in bottom right tray says update to cc available and it too disappears.
    Looked for help on Adobe website and tried changing name of OOBE to OOBE_old.
    Tried to download update directly from PS CC.  Went to help; update;   It failed to update completely and left the following error message: 
    Adobe CSXS Infrastructure 4
    Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
    Now PS CC has lost some of functionality.
    Marc

    Genius.
    Worked a treat, although, as Lion hides the User's Library folder I had to launch Terminal to make it visible first. Do you think the fact the Library's now invisible might've been an issue here?
    Whatever, all working now and Creative Cloud Files all synced again.
    Thanks very much Jeff.

  • Unable to update new LR 5 install to LR 5.02

    I just got LR 5, installed with CD.  I can't get it updated to 5.02.
    I can't get the complete file- error screen now says:
         c:\Users\username\Downloads\Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_2.exe.part
         could not be saved because the source file could not be read
         Try again or contact admin
    How do I get this to work?

    This is now resolved & was not because i didn't click on update. 
    some reason I wasn't getting the complete file, but did finally get it all & got 5.02 working now.  Thanks.

    You best ignore these USB messages. Depending on your PC and phone, the update can take some time. Reset the E63 using the 3 finger option and try again.

  • I am unable to update my iOS 7.0.6

    I am unable to update new software of iOS 7.0.6 in my Iphone 

    Have you tried to update via iTunes or via Wifi?  Here is the article on how to do both - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623
    Tell us what it's telling you when you try if you are having issues.
    Some common things to try if you are having issues doing it over wifi:
    1) Turn on Airplane Mode in Settings.
    2) Turn the iPhone off completely for about 2 minutes by holding the power button and sliding the red bar.
    3) Turn the iPhone back on and turn off Airplane mode from Step #1. Try to update again.
    4) Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Then reconnect to your Wifi and try to update again.
    If you are getting an error about space, you can delete some apps or information to free up space on your iPhone (You can view what's taking up space in Settings > General > Usage) or you can update via iTunes on the computer. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623

  • Iphone 5 new carrier update problem or glitch?

    A few hours ago I decided to reset my phones data and settings. I haven't done this since I got it last year and it was acting a little slower than usual and I thought it would help the perfomance of the phone, I had downloaded a lot of apps. Anyhow I went into itunes to backup my data to icould and my computer. An update popped up saying there was a new update for the carrier. I went ahead and said okay and continued to sync my phone to itunes. Once I had reset my phone and continued to restart I went through a few setting as far as launguage, wifi setting ect ect when a Sim Card Inavalid warning popped up. It reads:
    "The SIM card that you currently have installed in this Iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware isue with the iphone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information."
    I can't get into my phone at all now all I can do is make an emergency call, start over or go back to wifi settings. I tried calling AT&T and they weren't much help. All I was told was that I could order a new SIM card. Both my parents updated their phones with the new carrier update and everything went fine. Maybe its because I went and decided to do a factory reset on my phone? Anyway I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem at all and what can I do about it? I cant go into AT&T or Apple until tomorrow seeing as it is two late but my phone is not working at all now and it makes me quite sad =(

    Personally I would take it to the Apple Store cause the iPhone is still under warranty. You should try your carrier first if your not near an Apple Store and then go from there based on what help or lack of help they provide.
    Best of luck.

  • When is the next update for iphone carrier setting?I cant change my carrier to 2g!!!There is only 3g or LTE available for me.

    when is the next update for iphone carrier setting?I cant change my carrier to 2g!!!There is only 3g or LTE available for me.

    Carrier Settings are dependent entirely on your carrier.  2G is old outdated and slow etc, most carriers are phasing out their 2G service. You would need to ask your carrier when they plan on releasing a new update.
    Why on earth do you want to set your iPhone to 2G?  It will automatically switch to 2G if 3G is not available, and 2G is found.

  • How to turn off data on iPhone since recent iTunes carrier setting update?

    In the past few days my iphone has been using 3G for data and I have no control over it. At home it is connected to my wifi internet which has always been the case and which is fine but when I leave home it turns on data via 3G and there is no way off easily turning it off short of going into aeroplane mode or turning phone off altogether. I Only became alerted when I got an sms telling me my balance was low on my prepaid (with Telstra) when I knew I should have had plenty of money left on balance. Lucky I've only had about $20 used - how am I to know the phone in my pocket has been always connected. The problem has arisen since a carrier setting update a few days ago via Itunes. I can turn off 3G but then the phone just reverts to 2G and the data keeps flowing !
    There is no where to alter the cellular data network or APN settings since I installed a 3G sim .... previously with a 2G SIM you could enter cellular data network menu and enter APN username and password but these have both gone.
    This is a major problem and could be very costly if someone does not realise it quickly .
    Any solutions .... will speak to telco later today but they will inevitably deny an responsibility as they do !

    Unfortunately this may be contrary to the terms of the agreement that I have just agreed to so as to be able to participate in this thread but I consider the inability to limit the data access, to provide the owner with the option to explicitly authorise data access requested by an application as not just "bill shock" but THEFT. We require some consumer advocacy.
    I am a prepaid client who only wishes to use the data based apps when wifi is available. The workaround that worked until two days ago was amending the APN but now, on an iPhone purchased at the Apple store in Sydney and presumably an officially unlocked phone, no longer displays the APN option. Despite being very aware of the vulnerable state of the phone and the need to avoid any data based application I yesterday I still managed to incur two unwanted data charges of $18 and $9. I consider that THEFT. Even on a data plan I would be unable to satisfactorily control data usage.
    When the unwanted data exhausts my current prepaid balance, as it has several times in the past, I will have to convert my iPhone into an iPod Touch and obtain another phone. I certainly will investigate whether Android permits controlling data access.
    I am very disappointed as I believe the range of apps provides a compelling argument for the iPhone but the customer's inability to control data usage is unacceptable.

  • I have moved to uk from ireland and bought new iphone, set up using my existing Apple ID account and profile but won't let me buy install or update apps??

    I have moved to uk from ireland and bought new iphone, set up using my existing Apple ID account and profile but won't let me buy install or update apps??
    Can anyone advise me on what I need to do?
    My existing account is linked to ireland as my bank account details are there, does this make a difference?
    Please help!

    Until you get a UK bank account and credit card, buy and redeem UK iTunes gift cards for use in the iTunes and Mac App Stores. But you need to switch your region/country to the UK store in your account information, as you can't use UK iTunes gift cards in the Irish stores, the gift cards are country specific.

    Can you locate the iTunes Library.itl file on the old drive? Ideally you would have simply copied over the entire iTunes folder structure from <User's Music> on the old computer into <User's Music> on the new one to transfer the library will all playlists, ratings, play counts etc. intact.

    You may have triggered some intermittent database issues but it should be running smooth by now. Let us know if you still see server errors.
    Also, if your addons appear to go missing after updating there is a workaround http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/09/28/issue-discovered-with-firefox-add-on-upgrades/ And there is a 7.0.1 fix on its way.
