Service break on Tuesday 23 October

Hello WidSeteer,

We are getting closer to the new WidSets service!

Some of you have already seen some previews through the Countdown widget or you may belong to a privileged group to access the sneak preview site, or you have read about it from someone’s blog.

Yes, we are renewing the service on Tuesday 23 October!

Due to the migration process on Tuesday, it is very likely that we will have a service break during that day. But when we are up and running again – it will be so cool!

When you go online for the first time after the service update, WidSets will prompt you to update the version. Please, do that as the old version is not working anymore.

After you have agreed the update, the WidSets runs again though the look is revamped! All your favorite widgets should be on your dashboard, but their order may appear a little bit different.


Meet you in the new WidSets world!

New client is now loaded on my N95, but I'm not seeing any widgets at all!

Any ideas what's gone wrong?

Hi,

With all big migrations, there are teething troubles. widsets.com is no exception, but that's all being ironed out now - and infact your problems should be over.

Cheers,

Daniel.

Now sorted - it was just a matter of being patient, it seems!

I tried to update my Widsets (0.99) in my Nokia N95, but it doesn't find the web page for uploading. I tried also to create a new account and I was able to download JAD via my computer to the phone, but after accepting the download and installation to start, it says: "authorisation failed". Tried also the URL-method, but this link was also broken.

Could you please keep the current 0.99 version functional until you are sure the next version can be installed?

Widsets is one of the coolest services in my mobile, thanks!

Hi bobbyewing,

are you up and running again? Authorisation failed problem should have been sorted out yesterday.

We hope you have some patience with, as we are doing our best to get the new system stabilised as quickly as possible.

Tana,

Yep, I was able to update Widsets yesterday evening via the link in the reinstall-SMS! I'm experiencing some slowness here in Zambia on both your webpage and in mobile, but that is more likely due to internet-bandwidth here than your service.

Good luck ja hauskaa paivanjatkoa!
