NikT:

freitasm: Great news. Using my M9 again, now that it seems my handset is "approved" (I am using an AU version).

Should we hold updating the M9 until Semble whitelists it? What's the process?

HTC has to date worked directly with Semble to provide software for testing at the same time it has been supplied to the network operators (As has Sony). I'm unsure if this is still the case as there have been some changes to their local representation recently, will inquire.
