Android 2.1v and Cancelling download !

[#1]

Hey guys ! I have got 2 problems and i would be extremely glad if someone could help me out with this !

First,

I tried to download the application talking tom seeing that it was free ! But i forgot one thing...that i hadnt put on any net pack for the phone. So the phone automatically got connected to net and downloaded about 40% and this cost me a  lot ( About 150 rs so far 😕 ) How do i stop/cancel an ongoing download of an app? Currently,i switched off data traffic ! But still,i will need to use the net soon and so have to switch it on ! Can someone please help me on how i can cancel the download of the app? Help needed ASAP,thanks in advance !

Secondly,my phone still has an android 1.6v and i have already installed PC companion and update service on my PC.Now how do i update to 2.1? It asks me to switch off the phone,wait,press back key and then connect the USB cord while still pressing the back key !But nothing happens,the phone only keeps charging...:(  Someone please help me outta my problems soon !

Hi Ashwin412, try clearing cache form Market app. Goto Settings>Applications>Manage applications>Market>Clear cache. Let me know whether this works before I go to your second question.

I guess it works ! I can no longer see ongoing download in the notifications bar ! :smileygrin: :smileygrin: But you know,sometimes,it doesnt show the download in notification bar and starts off suddenly ! But i guess it may not do so this time Thanks a lot ! Now,if you could please answer the next question too,i would be happier !

Great! one down one more to go!

Not sure exactly what went wrong with your update. However, SE Update Service is an alternative for software repair and update, download it from here.

According to most users, this is a better choice.

Keep us updated on your progress.

I already have that downloaded but when i connect the phone to it,PC companion opens up 😕

Can't you close PC Companion? Tell you what, uninstall PC Companion (for this update).

Uninstalling And hey,the main prob which i face is the part where i switch off the phone,keep pressing the back key and connect the USB cord ! My phone just starts charging and doesnt go the next "Update" step ! What is actually supposed to happen ?

[gwhispererz]

Sorry, I have no idea :smileyconfused:. Let's see whether SE Update Service does the same? Hopefully NOT!
