What if I want to leave O2 and end my O2 Refresh plan?
You just need to pay off whatever's left on your Phone Plan. Then you can either sign up to a new plan, or leave O2. If you'd like to leave O2, after you pay off your Phone Plan, ask us for your PAC code or give us notice to cancel your account.
If O2 Refresh makes it easy to leave by just paying off your phone, aren't you afraid all your customers will leave?
O2 Refresh gives customers the freedom to leave and therefore, we think, the confidence to stay. There are plenty of perks when you're an O2 customer. Exclusive offers and experiences with Priority Moments. Queue jumping with Priority Tickets. Behind-the-scenes access with Priority Sports. Not to mention free O2 Wifi, and cash for your phone with O2 Recycle. And now with O2 Refresh, the freedom to get a new phone whenever you want
Get the best out of your battery and do a few charging and discharging cycles first time as described below.
Charge your Phone to 100% with flight mode. leave it on 100% for another hour before unplugging it.
-Now use your phone as usual and decharge it to 0%
-When the phone shut down by itself, it's actually not empty! When you try to turn it on again you will se the big blinking battery on the screen. Wait ~10-15 mins then it will turn on again (once my phone turned of with 0% and I got only the blinking battery, after 10 min I could turn it on, I had 13% left and could use it for another 6 hours! - This was what I meant with wrong calibration)
-Repeat this until your phone is dead (it doesn't vibrate any more when trying to turn it on), now when you charge it, the windows button led will blink for a few minutes
-Charge the phone again to 100% without an interruption and leave it again an additional hour. If the phone refuses to switch-on again after the battery symbol, as mine did, just plug into power until it restarts then pull power to fully drain battery. :wink:
-Repeat all the steps mentioned here at least 5-6 times (charging-dicharging until dead-charging- ...) therefore I said it wont work immediately.
Effectively you have to sign in to the Windows Phone App Studio with your Microsoft Account details. I did this on a laptop, not via the phone. Then on the phone go to the Store and install the Preview for Developers ap. Once installed launch the Ap and sign in with your Microsoft details and opt in for future releases.
Then, still on the phone, go to Settings > Phone Update (its towards the bottom of the list) and look for new updates. Mine did two or three smaller updates before it found 8.1. It took about 45-60 min in total and the phone restarts between the updates.I would recommend to do a hard reset after its all installed.
How to revert back to windows mobile 8.0 guide
With Windows Phone 8.1 Developer Preview now well out in the wild, most users have praised it as a big step forward for the operating system.
But it must be remembered that it's still a preview and might have bugs. Sometimes an OS update needs a manufacturer's firmware update to make it work properly.
If you think you're having problems with 8.1 Developer Preview and would like to wait for the "official" WP8.1 release (bundled with manufacturer firmware updates), here's how to revert to WP8 using Nokia Software Recovery Tool.
QR codes, and the steps to update Nokia apps for Windows Phone 8 are provided below. The QR codes are provided in the links below as Attachments that you can click on quite simply:
