hey i have a few questions for people who have upgraded to R1Kc001 via wotan...
1. the upper left key next to the earpiece can it be used to scroll images in standby and in the file manager ?? has this been resolved?
** Yes Fixed in R1KC001 **
2. by pressing the '#' key the available writing options didnt have numbers in R1JG001. has that changed in this new f/w?
** This wasnt actualy a fault, If you went into the laguage you will have noticed that ABC and 123 wasnt ticked, if you ticked these items the # button would work, However yes it doesn work in R1KC001 **
i have faced two problems in R1JG001
1. the contact pictures stopped displaying all of a sudden. after setting the picturs to the contacts again the same problem happened. it was resolved only after restarting the phone.
** Yes it seems to be ok **
2.when new messages would arrive mesage alert would ring but no pop-up or activity menu would be displayed. messages had to be opened after going into the inbox. the new message symbol was shown on top of the screen. after restarting the phone it was all right.
** Never had this problem on any firmware, but it works on R1KC001 **
so this new java system dont seem that stable....
** Not had any problems at all with it **
also suppose i send a msg and leave the phone as it is , auto keypad doesnt get locked due to the delivery report/ i have to click ok for the delivery report and only then when the screen is free of any messages the keypad locks. this was present even in R1GB001
** Still present **
Any more let me know.

I repost my findings about the two buttons up there. Let's say button A for the one FAR from Video Call camera and button B for the one CLOSER to Video Call camera. It is WotanServer R1KC001 CHINA CL with APAC Customisation.
1. In standby, press A, and it brings you to Landscape picture, correct? Press A again, and it does NOT react. You CAN'T move from one picture to another.
2. In standby, press B. It brings you to highlight the thumbnails. Correct? Then press A. It does the same function as B. You can move from one thumbnail to another thumbnail by both A and B.
3. In standby, now, press B. You see the thumbnail. Press the joystick. It brings you to Landscape picure. Press B. Yes. You CAN move quickly from one Landscape picture to another. Press B again to change picture. It works just OK, right?
Now press A. No, you CANNOT move pictures. How many times you re-press A, you CAN'T see the next picture. The conclusion is, in Landscape picture only B works to see the next picture.
4. Go to File Manager. Press B. Yes, it functions well to highlight from one file/folder to other file/folder, EXCEPT the files in Games and Applications. What about A? No, it CANNOT function as B button.
Hope it helps you.

No SEUS update for me??
Unbranded UK K800i with CDA 102511/2 R4A
SEUS says no update, so I'm still on R1GB001 whereas the first page says latest f/w is Unbranded UK (CDA102511/2) - R1JG001
Anyone else in the same position?

Same problem here , anyone got any ideas ????
Posted by darrengf
You may have recalled that i mention earlier a problem with transfering calls from 3g to 3g.
I can confirm R1JG001 seems to have a fault with the firmware warm transfering over voice calls from 3g to 2g.
If you make a call using the above software on a 3g network, when the 3g network starts to disapear the phone should warm transfer the call over to the 2g network (As long as there is one) however on the above firmware the call just ends.
R1KC001, the warm trasfer has returned, No loss in call. If you look 3g when you make the call, the call goes back to 2g.
Also CDA/2 R1KC001 (Generic) does have Wap accounts and internet profiles locked via the firmware. This is currenlty being looked at. I will post my findings.
I can confirm that in the the Settings menu, you used to be able to tell the phone how you want to send sms. eg via CSD or GPRS. In R1KC001 the menu has gone. So you dont get the choice.
Any more findings and i will let you know.
** Regarding the SE update on older firmwares, again i have noticed this, currenlty the only way to gt round this is by taking the phone to a service center or updating it you self by means on the internet.
@bronxdude Currenlty there are only minor tweeks and enhancments regarding the firmware as per the my findings.
Other wise i havnt noticed anything major and the walkman player is the same.
*** I can confirm today, If you use date and time on when taking photos, the date and time is now placed in Red on the photo instead of Green.

New bug in R1JG001 with O2 branding. If you look at your balance and you leave it on the screen and a message comes on your phone then it wont tell u it has arrived until u close ur balance

Hi. I've been watching this thread with interest, waiting for someone to talk about SEUS upgrades for Vodafone UK users. I'm still stuck on the old R1ED001 firmware and SEUS keeps assuring me that this is the latest version.
I wouldn't mind, except that setting default numbers for each contact doesn't work: I can get to the relevant screen where I see the correct number of radio buttons but no text/numbers are visible and selecting any of the radio buttons changes nothing.
And why on earth do Sony Ericsson not put a version history on their website to save me having to go through the rigmarole of trying to upgrade only to be told, after a lot of faffing about, that I already have the latest version?
Ho hum.

Anyone having problems uodating UK O2 k800's?
I'm currenctly running on R1ED001 Europe_2
The update service programme says there is an update for me but it'll only get to 98% upload to the phone and stop working with some sort of upload failure... Master reset on K800 not made a difference either!
Any ideas???
Posted by aremaboy
Try to fully uninstall SEUS from the PC. Install again and rerun the update. Good luck. If necessary, choose other location rather than UK, say USA, and let's see. Good luck.

Anyone encountered problem for sms after upgraded your firmware to R1JG001?
I experienced 2 problems which I never encountered this before I upgrade to R1JG001..
- duplicated messages saved in Draft. (Need to remove battery and it will back to normal.)
- some of my long messages auto converted the first message in this (...). Especially I have some important messages saved and end up it changed my messages to (...).
Both problems are just happened out of sudden and I cannot always keep track the problem and remove the battery... damn angry with this problem...Is R1KC001 having this problem too?
Posted by darrengf
I have had no sms or voice call problems with R1KC001.
very stable firmware
Posted by mwarner
Added the 2G-3G call changeover bug discovered by DarrenGF to the first post. It's interesting to note that no SEUS firmware since R1ED001 can be considered to be largely bug free! Mind you, my personal favourite is R1GB001 which is pretty good unless you happen to encode lots of videos for your phone.

I'd like to know if this is the latest software. I couldn't update the software over the air because there isn't any option under the Settings/General tab of the phone. It's been removed!
TIA!
Posted by maldus
@mwarner
i agree with you R1GB001 was probably the best so far if you didnt have too many videos.
It would have been better to stay on with that rather than upgrading to the newer one.

Hi,
I was just adding a calendar entry which automatically got deleted afetr looking at it. When I went on Reminder and typed the reminder in it said that Invaild Reminder and tried again but this some jumbled up numbers came up.
Anyone else notice that (BTW R1JG001 o2)

Hi!
I've read on a german site, that in version R1KC001 the TRACKID function is activated...
Is it true?
Could somebody verify it?
Thanks

No, it isn't true. Only K810i R1KC001 has TrackID.

I just picked up a k800i, and having owned a K750i a while back, I came to realize that there are times that the newer firmware isn't always the best (they downgraded the k750i photo and video quality at different points, and I was mad that I had upgraded).
I've looked over the firmware release notes, but they don't always give the nitty gritty details. So I thought I'd toss it out there... which is the best for cam performance... if there's a difference at all.
I've got R1GB001. Should I spring for the newest firmware?
Cheers,
Andy
Posted by maldus
@ AndrewSMcD
hi i think R1GB001 is probably better than most fw's that have been released.....
you should stick to it...
the only problem is that you may crash your phone if you have too many videos stored on it....
the only major bug in this fw was the video preview bug
other than that its quite stable
cheers

R1JG001 now available on SEUS for 102511/83 EUROPE_2
The correct firmware seems to be loaded - none of that horrid Hutchinson branding that the last 102511/83 version had incorrectly added to it...

Question for those on R1JG001 who have generic firmwares...
On my phone with earlier firmwares, the "Internet" button wouldn't immediately go off to the Internet if accidentally pressed.
With R1JG001 it seems to have been changed to the instant connect if pressed.
This update was via SEUS. Not Wotan et.al. Do others see the same? New Bug? Something weird with my phone?
Posted by Misko2006
Where can I download firmware version R1KC001??
now I have R!GB001.
Posted by darrengf
@Misko2006, The only way currenlty is to use Wotan server to update the phone to R1KC001. SEUS currenlty doesnt have this version.
@Mal M. This is not a issue but has been mentioned quite a few times in many forums.
From what i beleive its down to the software version (Manufactured) or (Geniric) you have on the phone.
Also Many people have said when they install from SEUS, then the internet button caused a delay when pressed. However normaly doing a full instalation stops this from happening. Its also down to the network and branding.
I hope this helps.

I found a nice feature has disappeared in R1JG001: Before this release, if you had your handsfree headset connected and set the ringer to silent, the ring signal was played in the earplugs instead. This feature is gone in R1JG, and the music or radio is only muted when a call arrives. Has this feature come back in R1KC001?
Posted by voicunebunu
I also found something strange regarding the JAVA implementation in the new firmware (seems to be the new firmware at least). I used to have a K800i with the GB firmware (China) and I just got a K790a which I flashed with the KC firmware, with a CDA from Ukraine I believe.
The thing i noticed is that Gmail and Google maps don't open in fullscreen anymore, and there's not way to make them do that (they were fullscreen on the K800)
Can it be the K790a vs K800i? Is it the new firmware?
Someone said there were differences in the Java implementation based on the CDA...

The new K800i firmware R1KG001 is available on Wotan Server today. I'm still waiting for Asia Pacific CDA availaibility. Anyone has flashed his or hers? Report here.
Posted by poutsaras
I saw it and there is the customisation file i need but every time i connect my K800i to Wotan it says that the latest software version is R1KC001.I hope that the problem will be solved till the morning..
Posted by aremaboy
OK, I decided to flash my K800i to R1KG001 with EUROPE 5 CDA via Wotan--have been waiting for APAC CDA, but it isn't uploaded yet as of now---and I find nothing 'noticeable' in this R1KG001 compared to R1KC001. The differences are only found on the firmware date--it is now April 18, 2007--or 070418. And it is version 41 (checked from the additional two digits after my IMEI number). The changes may be somewhere 'deep' behind the firmware itself, unnoticeable by end users like me. I'll report back when I discover something later.

Gmail opens full-screen in APAC and EUROPE 5. And yes, the font boldness is DIFFERENT for each CDAs. APAC font is thicker than EUROPE 5 in all Java games and applications. It may be due to Generic main firmware in EUROPE 5 CDA and China in APAC.

Hm, it is true that K800i is getting older and older. Mine is full of scratches now. And yes, everybody is talking much about newer phones like N95. The history repeats itself just like when we 'say good bye' to K700i, K750i and now--very soon--- K800i. But that is how the life cycle should be. I've preparing some money for the next phone..hehe..just haven't found the right one. So, still love my 'old toy'...
Posted by darrengf
Ive flashed my K800i when it came out a couple of days ago from R1KC to R1KG001 with EUROPE 2.
Cant notice a thing with it.
I can only persume its behind the scenes mod. nothing visual.
But again if i find something i will let you know.

ei guys i have a problem....i tried to download the spiderman trailer from s.e. site..thru gprs....i keep having this result "item too large" ...i have a 28mb phone free memory and a 42mb free memory on my m2 ....my firmware is R1j001....do you guys have this problem too?
i am from the philippines........i used two networks already for the dl..
help pls
Posted by aremaboy
The trailer is 6 MB large so your operator may restrict it. Use PC with Internet Explorer or Mozilla. Open the .dd file with Notepad to get the true link, and copy-paste the link to the browser. Done!
Posted by andre_cool
well i was just complaining because....before i downloaded the trailer of james bond and i think that was a bit big too...
Posted by bodum
i think that you need a 3G connection for downloads that size. normal GPRS would just take too long and be too costly. think it's stated there somewhere on the SE site.
note: nothing new on SEUS as yet. still on R1JG

I think this is true. Even when you try to download 500kB file FunandDownload say that you may need 3G. I bet with more than 1MB SE may not allowed it to be downloaded with gprs.

tried 3g connection...still the same reply.....is it the firmware?
Posted by bodum
what firmware are you on? and what exactly is the error message shown, or did the connection just terminate itself?
if the connection automatically terminated, maybe you can switch regions in your fun and downloads profile, and try downloading from another region's portal?
Posted by darrengf
@andre_cool
Can you let me know what network you are on.
Alot of the downloads are network dependent and not phone related.
Certain Networks have part garden walls.
A Garden wall is whenthey will only let you look an do what they want.

Hi Andre,
I am on SMART 3G and I can't download the Spider-man 3 trailer. Gives me the ff error:
