Firmware Upgrade Instructions for Windows

Purpose of upgrade:

This firmware upgrade contains the following modifications.
  • Fixed the invalid number problem which may occur when dialing in some nations
This firmware upgrade also contains modifications in the past upgrades as follows.
  • Fixed the Dual-tone multi-frequency (DTMF) problem: previously, if you called a phone number and entered options (e.g. Press 1 for inquiry, Press 2 for support etc.), the keys were ignored.
  • Fixed the Ringing problem: previously, when you were using SkypeOut to call a landline/mobile phone from S0-20, sometimes the other person heard the ringing still continuing even though he or she had already picked up the phone.
  • Improved the Power off function: previously, when you pressed the hang-up key followed by selecting the "Switch Off" menu, S0-20 might not have responded well.
  • The LCD screen now always turns off according to the Time out setting, including when the battery is being charged.
  • The country name for the United States Minor Outlying Islands (country code +1340) is fixed.
  • Reduces the amount of echo noise which might affect call quality in some cases.
