Hmmm... trying to use the SE update service with the USB cable and when I do exactly as it says the phone will just turn on and nothing happens.

I have had a w800i before but in that phone the C button would not start the phone as it does on the w880i.

Did it work right away for you and how did you do it? Thanks for any suggestions.

Posted by aremaboy
You need to install USB Flash driver. Get it from www.wotanserver.com and install it. Hope it works. But are you sure that W880i is SEUS-ready at the moment yet? And to the OP, as you have created this thread, please, keep it updated with the latest findings and firmware updates.

Hopefully, when i turn music up fuully, its kind of distorted

Posted by xtrem
more of a hardware problem than software

Are there still no seriously bugs known!? It would be amazing if this new device is that stable und bugless as it seems so far...

Posted by masseur
not really that amazing I guess given that there is not much that is particularly new in the firmware compared to other recent models

Posted by 2400Hz
As I have read in an local forum there should be one lonely reproduceable bug:

If you have selected a silent profile and answer an incoming call immediately and as soon as possible you may hear the selected ringtone for a short time.. even if the phone shouldn't ring because of the selected silent profile.

I couldn't verify this bug because I'm still waiting for my own W880i.. Is anyone here able to reproduce this bug on his phone?

I found few bugs ...

1. If you put your finger to cover the camera linse, the screen for sure will be dark but you will see RENDERS on it .. !! its not like that with other phones with same camera !! And even with some prototypes of this phone

2. If you turn off your phone and put it on charge, the right side there digts 3. 6, 9 and # are .. will flash in light orange color all the time !!!

Yet no major bugs, but still i dont know how to use this TRACK ID thingy .. lol

Posted by flaminglips

Posted by night_66
Exactly on this picture what i get when the phone is turned off and on charge !!

Whats the reason for that ? i didnt get it yet ? sorry but i think this orange light will make the charging continue cause its consuming battery energy ? right ?

My interface is laggy.

Especially when I dial a number, and go to "more" to save it.
The little menu that'll pop-up from the lower right corner lags really bad for me.

well i just had to reset my phone. now it plays from where i left it thank god i think there is a new firmware out, R1JE..... i have r1jc.... some one in the w880i thread in section said they have that firmware from wotan now...

Posted by antz88c
i flashed my w880i using wotan:
(Generic Trade Benelux)
CX1250640
R1JE001
070125

First impressions:
1. there's now an option to download service provider settings by going to Setting-General-Setup wizard-Settings download
2. All pre-defined settings under Connectivity, such as Data Communication, Internet and Streaming settings are now removed and default as per settings of my service provider.
3. 3G signal is consistent
4. "My shortcuts" still slow when moving an item.

if you exit the walkman and then open it by going to the menu, of course it will start from the top. this is with all phones. just press the play/pause button.

Hello!
Mine is R1JC002. C, event selector and 3 buttons stays on during charge, but it says fully charged at the end. So no problem of continuos charge.
Walkman button don't change the player's status and it starts to play from where left.
Camera doesn't render if covered.

Settings menu has the "recovery settings from Provider" which is very usefull!

I noticed menu's lag on saving a number with "More". It doesn't happen if the theme is not animated. I think is the only bug due to a low hw memory.

I use often the task selector and I noticed that if I'm writing a blog and try to send a message or a phone call, the blog message disappears and I have to start writing it again.

Than the camera needs memory, 'cause the task selector doesn't work.

Hmm, recently mines astarted to turn itself off, or the backlight fails to work, and then the phone dies :S

I sw a post on here with it happening to someone before... no idea why though

Posted by superleeds27
Are we gonna see some firmware soon then?

Becasue ive seen a few peobs with mine recently... Just after the 14 day RTB has expired lol

Help please?
I want to flash my W880 to "R1KC001 CID52" using wotan, only with my phone connected the firmware doesn't show up in the list. my current firmware is "R1JE001 CID51", and i realise i need to upgrade the CID and i have enough credits to do so but i don't see an option to.
Please help im stuck!!!!

Posted by STANNY
I dont want to be a pain in the anus, but can anybody help me?

Posted by tranced
hope this helps: Getting Started Guide 1.2

Posted by STANNY
Thanks for trying but i have read that thoroughly and it aint helping with the problems i have. The firmware i want to upgrade to is not in the list, and there is no option to upgrade the cid.

Thanks again tho.

Posted by gareb
Dont find no new on SEUS today.

Posted by Mizzle
I've got a problem. It keeps turning off without any reason at all. really should update the firmware soon.

Posted by Sebby
That might not be a firmware issue; it could well be hardware. There's no point SE releasing new firmware if there aren't any issues to fix.

Posted by superleeds27
Mine also decides to turn itself off randomly too...

I think thast harware though... :/

Posted by Mizzle
I found the solution. The phone restarted a lot after I used the Walkman-theme. Then after having experienced 20 restarts I decided to change theme. And that did the trick!

Posted by gareb
Can be true 'cause I aint never used to walkman theme. And mine never been restarted.

Posted by W.AxlRose
Hi, is R1JC002 the latest firmware available?
I have this version and SEUS tell me that it's the latest but on
http://www.wotanserver.com/en[....]/sonyericsson-w880-debranding/ the latest version is R1KG001

Posted by W.AxlRose
Update R1KG001 available on SEUS.

I've just successfully updated.

Don't know what's new. Testing it right now.

A change log would be appreciated.

Posted by gseth
Just updated the firmware as well.

The phone seems a bit faster, have to check the music playback.

The wakman song searching seems to be faster. (eg, my music - tracks - albums, etc)

Very interesting! This might well be true as I've had this problem ONLY when using the gsharp theme! Never used walkman. I'm using orange bubble now with no problems!

R1KG001 <----- Latest F/W in SEUS ..

I just updated my UNBRANDED W880 ..

I did not find anything new, i hope you guys tell whats new in it ..

Thanks

Posted by superleeds27
O2-UK

Latest Version - R1KG001

Was suprised that O2 had released firmware for this soo fast, well at the same time as Unbranded!

Posted by superleeds27
These changes in version R1KG001 were:

-Improvements in performance
-No Videorenderung with preview
-Do not terminate the Bildschirmschoners any longer possible with Joystick
-Autofocus improves (only with models with autofocus)

Posted by sexychocolate
Too bad they cut out the video preview. I just succefully flashed mine to R1KG001

ALso noticed that the datestamp in pictures is now in red instead of green.


Posted by superleeds27
but they've done nothing to the music by the looks of it :/

Posted by gseth
Another Thing is that the phone restarting/shutting down automatically has stopped.

Posted by kionna
anyone know whats new in r1kg001 for w880??

Posted by superleeds27
Listed on Page 3... Read... Search!!!

Posted by aremaboy
In case it's identical with K800i then you have:

-updated Java 7.4 with Never Ask to Read and Write Data User

-red date and time in photos

-disabled video preview to improve stability

- new Google interface when you launch Netfront and press 3

- new text revision and content

And again, it's with assumption that R1KG001 is identical among all DB2020 phones. Correct me if I'm wrong.
