Sony Ericsson Update Service… updated

seus-splash

The people who’ve recently tried to update their Sony Ericsson phone firmware via the update service application have probably noticed that before initializing, the program updated itself… and then popped up with a brand new interface. Yep, the update service is the last of  Sony Ericsson’s holy trio of apps (PC Suite, Media Manager and the said service) to receive a GUI reharsh. I haven’t been able to spot any significant new functionality, but it’s as good as it gets right now, so there’s not much to ask for.

You can download the new version of SEUS (v2.9.5.16) from the support section of Sony Ericsson’s website. No need to bother if you already have an older one, though. Just start it up and it’ll perform the update automatically.
And yes, they finally did include a better icon. Screenshots after the break.

    This is a mistake in the instructions -

    You actually need to hold down button “5″ down whilst inserting the USB connection.

    Otherwise nothing happens!

    Andre Giant is correct – I have just updated my wifes T303 (kept loccking up) – holding C button whilst nsterting USB cable did not work (phone just came up with message about mass storage). Holding down the ‘5′ key whilst inserting the USB worked – software was recognised and the software upgrade completed OK.

  12. Knudmand says:

    For a SE W980i I can confirm that holding C button whilst inserting the USB cable will not work (phone came up with message about mass storage). However, holding down the ‘5′ worked. Strange that SE did not fix this bug….!!??!

  13. Nayaz says:

    i’ve got more or less the same problem…
    the update process was interrupted and i don’t know why it happned
    because i know that my w960i was fully charged before i began the process…

    can anyone help me please????

    Sony Ericsson serivce centre is very worst support in tirunelveli. they never service the sony mobile correctly. they have no knowledge to find the fault and guide the ppl what they want to do. they are easily said that board prblm, send the moble to chennai. they have no idea even a tiny prblm too.
