How on earth do I check the firmware version?

OK guys - sorry I must be a complete moron but I can't seem to get that screen up which allows me to check my firmware number.

To clarify, I have an orange gd87, so when I boot, I get the panasonic splash and then an orange logo screen for a few secs and then it goes to my background and searches for a network which takes a few seconds.

I have tried after the panasonic splash, after the oraneg splash, and during the search. I type in #9999# but nothing happens. Am I supposed to press something else after the last "#"? When exactly do I need to type this. It appears that if I type the hashes and numbers during the "searching for a network" the #9999# just writes itself on the screen but does nothing.

Could a patient person please explain exactly how I get the firmware number up please???

Cheers,

David

He he he!

*#9999#

The last # shouldn't show up if you do it right.

yes, but when exactly do you press it?

Posted by: GD87 Master

As soon as it says 'Searching For Network'!

Aah finally worked it out, I was havin the same problem as you dt225. you have to make sure you put the * before the #9999# and it will worked mine did.

I can't get it to work, currently I have no sim card in it because the one I have does not work with the phone so its useless.
My phone is locked

Nevermind, I put in a working sim card to get the searching for network screen and punched it in and it worked.
