I have disabled all catalogues apart from the Nokia ones, I have deleted about 12 applications and I still have not got enough root space (about 38.4mb free). Either my device is abnormally chewing up root space (which may explain why it has been acting so totally crap last couple of days) or there has to be a more sensible allocation of root space by Nokia. Can't have to delete like 15 apps each time there is an update.

For everyones information, there are inly three new binaries available:

USA: RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8.002_PR_COMBINED_002_ARM.bin
MENA: RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8.003_PR_COMBINED_003_ARM.bin
Global: RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin

There is no, I repeat, NO UK variant of the firmware available. The latest UK version is still:

UK: RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.42-11.203.2_PR_COMBINED_203_ARM.bin

The question is, will I damage my phone if I try to install the Global binary onto my (UK) hardware?

I suspect that Vodafone is to blame - they will be developing the UK unbranded version in parallel with the UK Vodafone version, and if the Vodafone version gets held up in approvals then us unbranded users will also get hit

You won't amage anything installing the global binary - several people have done that already (nobody knows what the difference between the regional variants is anyway). And I doubt it's anything to do with Vodafone - the last 203 update came out several hours before the 205 update.

Is that PC software? if so, my monitor is out of action so no PC at the moment...

When I run apt-get upgrade it says:

The following packages have been kept back:
hildon-initscripts

Okay my device definitely has serious problems. Disk usage app is showing 42.6mb free and I still can't instal. I thought it was meant to be 41mb to have enough space. Actually I am not sure I understand what this diskusage means. It shows free 38.4mb (root:42.6mb). What is the 38.4mb?

Yes it is

- but normally by clearing enough space and being prepared, means you should be fine for OTA - not sure if hildon is affected, (Well that specific one)... there is a list somewhere. (And a thread dedicated to posts related to that part)
