When will there be a NEW UPDATE for the 5800?

Im loving the phone, but there hasnt been a new significant update for the phone in a long time.
Really een for a new update ay, hopefuly widgets nd stuff for the home screen...

The problem you're referring to is the responsibility of the networks.
When a new firmware version is released it is given to the mobile network operators for branding and approval before being released to the general public. Operators are then supposed to make any modifications they want to the firmware (such as removing features, adding their logo etc.) and return it to Nokia for distribution via Nokia Software Update. The idea is that the new firmware will be available to users of branded phones and generic, unbranded phones more or less at the same time.
The problem with this theory is that firmware updates are about as high on the priority list of mobile network operators as looking for the Loch Ness monster. They really don't care about customers that they've already hooked and making sure their phones are up to date, they'd much rather concentrate their efforts on giving people new phones (and locking them into new contracts). The end result of this is that Nokia never receive the modified firmware from the operators, which also means that you can't update your phone because there's no new firmware to install on it. When queried about this by their customers, network operators will lie as a matter of routine and claim that they never received the updated firmware from Nokia, or that they returned it and Nokia never released it anyway. They will say anything to shift the blame away from themselves and make the manufacturer, or sometimes even the customer!, take the blame.
Some operators are better than others at approving updates. Unfortunately for you, Orange is among the worst.
The fact remains that the ball is in your operator's court now. V20 has been long since released and V21 was also released a couple of months ago. If they aren't available via NSU then that means that your operator hasn't yet bothered branding them and returning them to Nokia for distribution. The only people who can offer any help are your network operator. You need to hound them until they get themselves into gear and do something about it. Nokia can't help you because they can't distribute formware that they've not been given by the operator.

    I believe the most recent forcast was, "When pigs fly."

  • When will there be a software update for the Media Hub?

    1. Many issues related to playing media types - Need updated or increased CODEC's - Flash, MPG, Divix, WMP should ALL play. Why don't you put ALL the CODEC's in???? 
    2. Support for iTunes playlists.  This should be a basic funtion.
    3. Funtion to get rid of duplicates as common sense tells you that he Media Hub will see your iTunes LIbrary and the built in function of "Import" creates duplicates.
    4. Support for better identification of iTunes related Album artwork.  It's there! Wht does the Media Hub not see it as iTunes does?
    5. Larger buffer options to cut back on load times for large libraies of photo files. Don't mind giving up some disk space for this too or using an external mem card! 
    6. Better Sony Play Station support as SP3 sees files as not compatible, yet plays them and not others. 
    7. When can we expect some form of software update?
    8. Does the Media Hub (405) run faster with a single drive if you turn off the two drive option?

    1. You have to understand that it would be close to impossible to place all the codecs in one device. As some codecs requires DRM.
    2. I'm not sure what codec you are after in itunes since M3U is supported by the media hub. Supported File Types for the Built-In Media Player in the NMH
    3. I strongly agree with you in this one. Duplicate files using the Import Tool should be automatically be removed. That's why I don't use the Import Tool anymore instead I just use the NTI Shadow when transferring files automatically to the hub.
    4. The media hub uses AMG Server to look for album artworks. But the last upgrade of the firmware allows you to use your album arts without the interference of the AMG Server but the art must be tagged on the media file.
    5. I agree with you on this one as well.
    6. I always keep in mind that not all devices works as what we expect it to be. So better just bear with the Play Station support until we get some updates.
    7. Only LinksysbyCisco can answer that. LoL
    8. The media hub functions the same way regardless whether you are running on 2 drives or 1. But of course, there will be some minor differences on Read and Write performance when running on RAID 1 since both the drives will have to read and write the same files into it making the processor double its work.

  • When will there be a new update?

    I just purchased two Xperia Mini Pro phones.
    I really like the phones and it said the updated to ICS is avaible right after connecting them to a PC.
    The problem is that I read some topics here before deciding on upgrading and the missing or none working notification light is no go for me.
    The whole reason I purchased Sony phones where because they had light notifications and most phones don´t. That and of course other features I like, like excellent camera and small phones. If you happen to receive important notifications you can´t check the phone every 5 minute when you leave the desk. Not being able to see notifications blinking its just a disaster. And Sony says this is to save battery? Honestly do you think this saves like hours of battery? I don´t think so and the feature is more important than anything else on a phone, if you leave the phone for a while or are in a noise enviroment its all you have  to check something new is coming your way.
    I also read the camera is slow and has problems. Its pretty clear that Google has fixed most of this issues in Jelly Bean, you can´t see almost any new features but because most of the work is behind in the core, its called project butter for a reason. To make the ICS run as smoth as possible.
    Would it not be smart for Sony to jump to Jelly Bean to fix the performance and most issues on this phones? That is maybe asking to much but at least if they can make ICS run stable.
    My phones says there is an update available 4.1.B.0.431.
    So I just denied the updates, until a new one comes, one that fixes the current issues.
    I know its just to recent since Sony started to roll ICS, so bugs are expected. But I really hope they keep sending fixed and patches to make run as smoth without killing phone basic features like notifications, performance, camera, etc.
    Please someone update this topic when there is a new updated after 4.1.B.0.431
    I could not find a single changelog on Sony website so I can´t actually check when there will be a new update as there is nothing to compare with it either.

    You mean on the phone or where? Sorry, I just got the phones.
    From the phone itself it says there is no update. From the PC Companion it says there is a new version 4.1.B.0.431. available. I did not even set the language on phones, so there is really absolutely nothing on it. A full OS upgrade would be the smart thing to do.
    But since I read most people have a slower experience on ICS, im really confused. If I had this phone months before of course I would just used what was available, but since I have both options now, what comes as stock and the update im a limbo about my decision. And since the update is very, very new. I could also say, give Sony a few weeks or months to get things right and then upgrade.
    I don´t know why some people talk so great about ICS vs Gingerbread because what I see now on the phones is just amazing and very nice. I don´t see how it can be even better. Of course if performance is going to be an issue I prefer to wait. I don´t the phones now. I have my current phone so I can just put them on the box and wait until a stable release is available.

  • Will there come a software update for the "older" ipods?

    Hi all, will there come a software (firmware?) update for the new menu of the Ipod Video?
    I have an Ipod video 60Gb and I'm really happy with it, but I found out that the newest ipods have some extra functionality in menu structure, which enhances the search.
    Thanks for your answers!

    Thank you for your answer.
    Well, they might not have had the possibility then...
    Maybe it's just one of those features that were invented later...
    My wife has an Ipod Mini and it has less menu possibilities than my ipod video...
    I have posted the request, but as stated it will be very unlikely that they will answer the request.
    Thanks anyway, ipod is really the best!
    Best regards, Jean Loyens, Belgium
    Unlikely. If Apple had wanted this feature for older
    iPod videos, they would've implemented it in the last
    update.
    However anything is possible so if you want it,
    suggest it to Apple here.

  • When will there be a new update of FirmWare for N9...

    I am wondering and would like to know why has there yet to be a new updated fw available for the Nokia N95-3? All the other versions have received fw updates, the N95-1, N95-2, and N95-4. Is there a problem that there is no new fw update yet for N95-3? Where is it!? I would like to be able to use the phone, know it has the up to date fw available for it to be more stable and working properly. I know I will have problems with this phone when I get a 16gb micro sd hc card because the firmware has yet to be updated! Nokia can't neglect the US customers who have bought their phones! If this keeps up I will definitely not buy a Nokia in the future.

  • Will there be a firmware update for the lumia 920'...

    Early reviews of the lumia 920 are all saying that the camera is not as Nokia said (the best camera on a smartphone at the moment). Photos taken in daylight are not that sharp compare to other devices. One of them even said that prototype tested a month before did not have such issue. Is that only a software problem? If yes, will there be an update? Thanks for the reply.

    Some reviwers have rated the camera quite highly so it might be a case of user error on the reviewers part for marking it down.

  • When will there be a plugin update for PSE 10 to read Canon cr2 files??

    I bought PSE 10 and a Canon T4i, I am shooting in Raw format.
    I have a Toshiba Laptop with Windows Vista
    The Camera Raw Plugin is 6.7 in PSE10

    Unfortunately for whatever reason adobe has not made the camera raw 7.1 plugin available to pse 10 users and adobe has never given a reason why.
    I guess you could use the 7.1 DNG Converter to convert your files to dng copies which will then open in pse 10.

  • Is there going to be a new update for the iPad 1 because a lot of game requires iOS 6.0

    There has to be a new update for the iPad 1

    Probably not, except to fix security holes; any such updates will not allow the device to run applications which require iOS 6.
