    Sony w580 firmware update question

    Would it be better to update the firmware using seus or actually flashing the phone with the files from here again? I think i read that seus keeps all your data intact like messages and stuff, so id rather use that. But seus still doesnt have the update for it yet. Anyway opinions appreciated ^_^

    hi, when seus has no availible upgrades, then you can upgrade with the flash files from here,but if you want not to lose the content(sms,photos...) you just have to Flash the Main (without FS!).
    Good Luck

    It's in the download area... however you can not download until you have registered for 1 month and 20 posts IIRC. Good luck.

    ya, i decided to flash everything. no real problems found yet...

    One thing. My voicemail phone number does not stay programed in the phone. AFter i set it, a couple days later, it asks me to set it again. kind of annoying... any thoughts?

    a work-around i did was to add voicemail number to my phone and set speed dial to 1, so inste of holding down 1 i just press 1 and then press call.
