Thanks for this post.

I have a brand new unit.

Using both the update check and SEUS which claim I already have the latest software. I ran through SEUS install anyway letting it download apx 170mb but it installed the same version I had = 4.0.A.2.335. Maybe my understanding of versioning is wrong and this is newer?

Thanks!

the newer version is probably available to certain countries, regions, it will be 2.3.4 w/o any real improvement, perhaps few extra apps like macaffe but nothing special, you can always flash it using Flashtool. but I wouldn't go through that problem (as long as you have 2.3.4 you are ok)

I have updated 4.0.2.A.0.42 which is the latest for my region (I am in South Africa). The game Let's Golf, now needs to be downloaded via a Wi-Fi connection????

The game came preloaded on the unit when I got it? Why should it be downloaded and how do I do it?

Re: Update Pro 4.0.2.A.0.58

paul4os — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 10:04:36 GMT

Let's Golf is actually only partially installed when you get your phone. This is because the game files are too big to fit into your phone's internal memory. Therefore it needs to download the game files from the internet (via wi-fi) and install these files onto your SD card to complete the installation.

Just make sure that your wi-fi internet connection works and choose to download.

Thanks paulster2! that makes sense except for the part about the wi-fi connection. Can I not use another type of connection to download the files?

Re: Update Pro 4.0.2.A.0.58

paul4os — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 10:22:57 GMT

I don't remember, but I don't think so.

The file download is > 100 MB so better to use wi-fi anyway.
