I doubt there will be much change. Seems like the drivers that run the MP3 on the K790i are the same as the K750i's so far. Can't wait till FAR Manager has support for CID49.

I will be interested to learn of any improvements in R1CF001, once enough people have re-flashed using Wotanserver.

I'm using R1CB001. After posting I played around with it a little more and can report that:
From the menu, when using the number keys to access options, and then returning by pressing the back key, the title will still read as 'Messaging' for the following options:
- Music Player (6)
- File Manager (7)
- Contacts (8), and
- Call List (#)
And on a separate bug - it's funny, but for some reason now when in the File manager, pressing keys won't bring up the alphabetical search, nor correspond with a folder.
I would also like to bring to the table: Noise in the Media Player
For me, heard only using HPM-70 headphones - pops and clicks between tracks, when the volume performs it's 'fade up/fade down' trick, excess clicks can be heard. The quality of audio during playback seems to be quick good, however.
And for interests sake: When I hook my K800 up to my car stereo, after a period of inactivity (say 30 seconds of no music, or calls) what I can only describe as a loud 'network searching' noise comes through the speakers.
It's at a regular beat, but what interests me most is that playing and exiting the media player will cause the noise to stop (for another 30 seconds or so). Strange! ...anyone?

Thanks for starting this thread
hope to keep us updated
Had my k800i last week R1CB CDA singapore
Please verify and add to your first page bug list:
- video mode during recording a green line at the side of screen.
- Small/large clock in 24HOUR time format
- Sometimes thumbnail of video doesnt appear
- i always have a sound problem, my click/tone sound of keypad frequently goes off / was gone. this also affects my message tone, cant playback video, cant play sound files (i encounter this when creating/recving/sending(notsure which) mms)
- Preview MMS with video doesnt play the sound (frequently occur/needs rebooting of fone)
- battery consumption only 24hours? mms usage and text only. about 5min calls (is this bug? or batt prob, or just normal?)
- zoom in on camera was on lower button unlike my w800i which is same as increasing the volume. (did they change it for reason?)
- cant remember where but i found a garbled background of help/info message.
- multitap fast typing problem sometimes letters were not pressed
- phonebook doesnt show the icon symbol.. (:-) / etc. ... )
- mms on outbox that is being send on a dead signal doesnt continue when signal comes (restarting the fone will continue sending)
- turning on my bluetooth on shortcut sometimes fails to load/ or the icon just doesnt show up?..
ADD on wish list
- flashlight
- new/customizable skin for music player (default seems very pale/bare)
- capture function for 2nd camera is missing
- video size setting (need more for mms sending the 128x96 was gone)
- "Best PIC" setting should have timer gap interval settings. (This is just like the burst mode of my w800.. not so good add ons unless they add interval settings)
- can replace videocall with pix.. y not add .3gp replacing
- flash theme / menu support
- turning off sent items.
- log for calls (missed call details.. time stamp on all missedcall of 1contact)
**Do you guys also experience having a hardtime to remove the battery cover?? grrrrrrr

(You know that the flash is Xenon and can not be utilized as a flashliight). There is an app invented by a poster here on Esato that will turn on the red LED as a flashlight.

At the moment the static that I can hear through my car stereo is very comparible to what you guys experience in the radio.
It's always discretely present for the first 30 seconds of connection (only heard when stereo is turned up, with no music), but not audible when music or radio is playing, and then after about 30 seconds (as people have reported) it suddenly gets a whole lot louder.
Fortunately it never seems to get louder when the music player is playing... only the radio? Or in my case - when nothing is open at all. Bizarrrrre.
I sure hope it gets resolves as it give me a hell of a fright if the phone's connected to the stereo but no music is playing for 30 seconds!!

If they could only release it on SEUS, we would all be very happy. It almost feels like they will wait and release an even newer firmware, or they are just slow.

One more thing
Is there a way to put back the mode into normal from Flight mode without restarting the fone.. and vice versa?
---
my w800i doesnt browse the fone wen in flight mode, it only plays the walkman menu...
Posted by b3rx
@vanity
i belive there is not a way to do that. as i can tell, only symbian os enabled phone can do that.
Posted by hansmusterli
I just noticed another bug with pictures in vertical or horizontal (landscape/portrait):
I shot a portrait/vertical picture. If I view it in the album it is in landscape/horizontal, that's normal, no problem. Now I turn it, so it's in the right vertical/portrait position in the album. But If I post it directly to the blog (send > to blog), the picture appears nevertheless in horizontal/landscape on the blog.
Seems to be the same problem as with the pictures you use for your contacts. If they are vertical/portrait in the album, they still appear in horizontal/landscape in your contacts, when your friend is calling or sending a message.
@mwarner: please add this to the bug list. Thanks!

Minor bug:
Watch video in full-screen, pause it, then change back to landscape mode. Video timer says 00:00 until you unpause.
Cheers

I wish so! Even to have it in the Power button menu would be great, currently, if I want to use my phone in a hospital as a once off (but not be prompted to use flight mode at every startup), I have to:
Go into settings and turn the flight mode prompt on,
turn the phone off (wait ) and back on again, selecting flight mode,
then on my return to normal mode, switch the flight mode option off again!
On this note...
Another possible bug:
In flight mode the Power button menu doesn't appear for me, not even from stand-by. Can this be confirmed as a bug by anyone?
Also: Viewing Birthday appointments added by the K800 display in an unusual fashion. Pressing the Back key to return to the Calendar exits the Calendar altogether.

Damn hope that SE is putting the firmware on SEUS as we speak.
Posted by aremaboy
So, any info on SEUS? Trying to update via OTA but always says my firmware is the latest. Is it reliable anyway?

I hope so but I tried OTA and SEUS so I think it's oke.

I regret to sell my W800 and changed to K800. K800 music player features is worse compare to W800i and so many bugs else W800 firmware is quite stable now. Should wait until the K800 is stable.
Wish to have Improvements of Music Player:
-Cannot scroll up and down to select song while playing music...
-Volume too low, need to be increased. (how can SE have same mistake while it was fixed on W800?)
-Cannot shortcut straight to the Now playing.
*** Is there possible to have MegaBass ?????????
new firmware pls!!!!!!!
By the way, anyone can teach how to set setting can equal or better than MegaBass? Appreciated if anyone can advice. Thanks!!!!!

Mr. Feelisme,
Please do not double post in two different threads. The mods do not like this and in most cases it will not get your problem solved any quicker.

if you get a reply and solution please do also let me know..
thx..cheers

They need to get the firmware out there. How can they be so slow. Since of the indications earlier in this thread that new phones ship with this new firmware there is no reason not putting it up on SEUS.
Posted by sapporobaby
Why continue to whine and complain about the software not being there. Many of us are waiting for it but do you think that your complaining about it will make SE release it any sooner? I wold rather wait an extra 2 or 3 weeks for something that is ready than for something quick. Second, how long has the phone been on the market? A maintenance release is usually available after a few months or less, so what is the problem? SE is gathering the COMPLAINTS as well as the thoughtfully worded bug reports and preparing an upgrade to fix things.

***UPDATES on My Bug List:***
ENTERTAINMENT:

I'm also of the opinion that (perhaps just for the initial firmware release), the first post of this thread should show more categorised bugs.
Firstly: Major bugs (although it may be hard to choose which),
And then all confirmed bugs (sighted by at least 2-3 people) sorted by category.
I reckon this would prove to be a much better overview to see where the firmware is headed than just picking and choosing bugs for inclusion.
If we all worked together at testing each other's findings, we could come up with a very accurate overview, possible to send to SE.

Well i have mentioned all the bugs i encountered and categorized it... Firmware is better late than releasing earlier but still buggy

No dramas!
What did you think of our thoughts on categorising bugs? Ratifying reported bugs and adding all bugs that have been confirmed to thes sections?
Posted by sapporobaby

Darn good idea. In fact lets expand this a bit more. How about lists dealing with maybe: Known bugs, questionable bugs/issues, wish list (realistic based on phones), and wish list based on a dreamworld scenario.
This would be a list containing 4 sets of info and maybe the mods can make it a sticky.
Posted by sapporobaby
Just so that I am up to date. I got my k800i about 3 weeks ago and the f/w is: R1CB001. Is there a new version or are we all waiting for an official SE release?
Posted by mwarner
Thanks for all your input while I have been away! I have updated the first post with those bugs I have verified & consider sensible to include. I have also redone the layout somewhat. All comments welcome
It also goes without saying that I would be grateful for any assistance in verifying these issues. In fact, here is the first that I need confirmation on:
----------
"I shot a portrait/vertical picture. If I view it in the album it is in landscape/horizontal, that's normal, no problem. Now I turn it, so it's in the right vertical/portrait position in the album. But If I post it directly to the blog (send > to blog), the picture appears nevertheless in horizontal/landscape on the blog.
Seems to be the same problem as with the pictures you use for your contacts. If they are vertical/portrait in the album, they still appear in horizontal/landscape in your contacts, when your friend is calling or sending a message."
----------
My question is, if you view the picture, select rotate then add it to your contacts / blog it is the output picture displayed correctly?

OK, time to report this bug. Although it IS listed on the front page
My call log isn't registering ANYTHING... and at the bottom of the call list of "All" there is this blank entry... it's so damn annoying.
Anyone know how I can get rid of this bug? It looks permanent... I tried deleting an entry but to no avail.
Damn SE, selling us this crap.

My K800i works just fine. The call log bug doesn't present. The radio is OK, no noise..hmm, maybe a 2nd batch? Yesterday, it crashed whenever I opened my contact list..white screen. 4 times. I waited till it was on by itself..1 min afterwards. Then pull out the battery for 15 mins. No more white screen or crash..weird? It's R1CB001 CHINA APAC..

Ha!
@Mike, I myself cannot confirm your rotation bug, as I can't blog on my network, but I'm hoping someone else here can confirm.
It was a nice surprise to visit this thread and see your alterations. I think sapporobaby had it right with his classifications in his earlier post.
Having a 'Reported bugs requiring confirmation' collumn could also focus people on testing it out on their own handsets, rather than reading through the whole thread to find things they should test.
I think a list of suggestions is also a worthwhile addition - so long as we all keep it simple, concise, and reasonable.
For example:
"The ability to press the back key in the media player and return to where you browsed from." Now the lacking of this feature probably couldn't be classed as a bug (as the media player has been designed like this), but it's certainly worthy of a firmware suggestion.
Posted by >500
are these bugs and suggestions going to be emailed to sony ericsson?
Posted by aremaboy
Unfortunately, as usual, SE won't listen. SE has the specific standard of bug fixing, which indeed, is impossible to satisfy all people. Remember W800 M4A tag bug? It's never fixed no matter how loud we shout.
