I have managed to get update service working on Windows Vista !!!

Under Compatibility tab, goto Show settings for all users, and tick "run this program as an administrator" under privilege level.

Please note that running the program changes the colour scheme to "Windows Vista Basic", and upon exit the colour scheme changes back !!!

PS: I forgot to mention that update service installs fine on vista, "missing JVM" error used to occur when running the program and would complain that it "could not locate a Java Virtual Machine"

This should hopefully help anyone with this problem.

Regards,
MasterMoo

@guru83,

Right Click on the Sony Ercisson Update Service shortcut on the desktop and under Compatibility tab, goto Show settings for all users, and tick "run this program as an administrator" under privilege level.

Doing this runs the update service without any jvm error.

This type of error is sometimes down the macromedia player (flash) being wrong version. Download from Adobe the 'special' un-install application to remove it from PC.

Now try installing it again.

I had this problem as well, I think it was solved when I ticked "WinXP compatibility mode" under the compatibility tab.

SEUS is working great for me !!!

Here is the proof:

Now and suddenly the update service won't work again, though it was working. It says: "application error, failed checking application versions, please reinstall the application and make sure you have the latest version."
I have the latest version of adobe flash player and SE update service.

@cadcad,

I also experienced this problem (after recent clean install of vista, although it was fine after clean install before, weird !!!).

Uninstalling update service, and re-installing it again solved the problem for me.

EDIT: unchecking "run this program in compatibility mode for WinXP", fixes the "failed checking application versions" error.

Once the error dissapears, the compatibility mode can be checked again, no error occurs !!

installed stand alone version of flash and is working when u check "run as a administrator" in compability tab ( and set comp to win xp)
but im having another problem, when i take sim card out and place phone in the stand program don't react. (i i know that battery should be fully charged and ports should be unchecked).
Ive upgraded phone before on xp, this step was always confusing me, but now i don see anything wrong, what could be a problem?

I have p910i
