"u can now choose to only display the message sender in the inbox/sentbox instead of having the first line of the txt displayed aswel, and when u do this it doesnt display the first line of the txt on the homescreen either!! Things seem to be slowly improving on the k850i"
Can someone tell me where this option is ?
I have the latest firmware and it still shows all the 1st line of the message

Looking at the format of menus, it should be included under the 'Arrange by' submenu from the list of menus that open up when u press 'options' when you first enter your inbox
Try that

Great thanks I've found it. thats one of my pet hates gone with the new firmware.
Posted by Holdit
No worries...Now I'll just sit and wait to try it for myself. lol

How do you delete the list in the sent message folder of people you have sent to? its annoying and has everyone in it and theres loads, anyone?
Posted by larry 68
Normally you just click on the message and press the c button , same with the list of names that pops up when you write a new message, just click on/highlight the name or number and press c and it will delete it
Posted by robmac
You are my HERO, didnt even think of that, had a k800i and it said options then delete was looking for that.
Thanks pal

Hey guys..m from india and sues says that its not yet available..how is this possible..m on the 029 firmware and the 037 firmware has not been launched yet either..isitonly for banded ones???

Well, I won't be staying long enough on the bandwagon to witness the R1DA038 update on my phone... news has come around in Canada that ROGERS is going to carry the phone, and the value of the phone is going to go down the tubes here... so I'm getting rid of my phone this week.
Until my carrier comes out with the phone, I will wait for the reduced prices before possibly purchasing the phone again. So best of luck to you guys with your K850i's
, I'll be checking this thread occasionally to see some hopeful updates!

tried to update mine. still saying that my phone is up to date.
Posted by e_erzan
updated mine,but still the same 037....
Posted by dipb
038 is avaialble in Western Europe on O2 branded phones.
Posted by franique
havent tried updating to the latest one but i got back the russian-lang-preset! thanx to DaVinci Team! nways, any prob occur with the new f/ware anyone?
Posted by Ricky D
Grrr! Still no update to R1DA for me. I want it now. Why with the waiting and some people getting it before others?? Makes no sense. I know it must be any day now that my generic western europe firmware will be updateable but why can't that day be today? I feel that seen as though I was one of the first to get the phone I should surely be one of the first to get the new firmware too. I've had to put up with the older firmware for longer!!
P.S. I know there are reasons for
taking longer on some of the customisations than others but I'm feelin impatient today and like I want to rant

Mine definitely didn't. That was the first thing I tried to change when I got the phone.
Anyone still having problems with the flash?
I tried taking an outdoor photo last night, just of a car, had it on Twilight Portrait and the picture was really dark.

Will try again soon....got my medical leave fo my sinus....hehe,got more time to wait...

I'm very sad also my phone is the same Western Europe of yours. Wish could have this firmware this year yet..

Hi there all been a long time reader of esato but never had a need to post as normally find the answer.
However, my 3 week old K850 got the operation failed message whenever i tried to read, write or send ant texts so after a reset job cured.
My firmware version is RICA029
The other problem is im a mac user so i cant download the SE auto updater.
so currently i dont know what firware im running or how i can update it.
Any suggestions?

^it should be under update service in General settings o0
Posted by ecsrobin
ive managed to find it in my service settings but still no update menu?
Posted by Sebby
It's in Menu > Settings > General. If it's not there, it's been removed by your operator as part of the branding.

HAPPY NEW YEARS!
May early '08 bring us all '38
and many more FW fixes galore!
Posted by ryanchg
So is the 038 rumored to the be major fix? so far i don't see much positive outcomes from fellow forumers here..
Posted by obentou
I doubt it's a big fix. I even doubt there will be one, it's just too impractical to fix everything in one big go. New bugs may come with new firmwares, so its more logical to sort out the problems gradually in successive firmware releases.
Posted by Mizzle
038 is a big fix, yes. On the camera side of things, we'll see great improvements and same on Java performance - especially 3D graphics, that'll be around 4 times better!

happy new years im pretty wasted
im with vodaphone uk its definetly not there so im assuming its been removed which is extremly annoying ah well a half good phone must be better than a nokia by far
Posted by br@dley
I was taking some photos at night (indoors) and the flash was TOO bright. All the photos were totally washed out. Even my wife's 2Mp Nokia looked better taking the same shot.
Outdoor photos work quite well for the basic optics.
ps. 37 firmware
Posted by soane28
use ISO 100 or 200 to keep the flash from being too bright.

Happy New Year!
Hope the R1DA038 comes out from hiding and present itself to us....
Posted by Bryan84
Nothing here in Singapore yet.
Posted by baste07
let's just wait until it gets our for all regions
Posted by br@dley
The ISO is automatic... obviously doesn't work too well:)
Posted by Exorchist
So, I made a user just to ask this one question:
How the hell do I get Vista x64 Ultimate install my K850i in flashmode? I get the SEMCBOOT thing, but after spending about 1 min searching windows update, the phone goes into storage mode. This is friggin annoying, am I going to get spanked for the rest of my life for using a 64bit OS?
If anyone has a fix, or location to driver or whatever, that would have been great. I feel like SE is being a really bad boy when it comes to software support...

so far no news rite?
Now still coping with no games and apps...
The error msg still there aka "application failed"..

This phone is so buggy, by the time they fix it the N82 will be as cheap as the K850.
Posted by Dupet
The K850 has been the single biggest purchasing mistake of my life so far.

Highly doubt that, and it's not that buggy. Especially not with the new firmware.

Any date for us Orange customers here in the UK?
I used SEUS today and it told me I didnt need to update which is different to the last time when it updated but to the same firmware??!
Also fixed my creaky back cover, no need to take the phone back, I had it fixed in 5mins flat and it wont be coming back
Im starting to really bond with the phone now, in fact, I dont even really feel the need for the firmware because Im getting along with the phone really well now that Ive brought it up to the quality standard it should have been out of the box.

This is exactly as I feel, especially since 038 firmware came along, its made a huge difference, and really changed my mood about the phone.
The big firmware update (Im guessing to R2) is coming end of Jan / beginning of Feb, but im no longer in desperate need for it, i feel i can handle the phone just fine now.
