I wouldn't believe SE doesn't have separate departments for separate phones, or at least separate series

I had 031 and brod happened. Yesterday i flashed 031 again with kulakendi and discovered for the time being 2 differences. In the network selection it doesn't appear hsdpa option and when i enter the media first option is pictures and before was music. Everything else looks the same!
Why did you flashed to 031 again? dont you care if BROD happen again?
I will pick my new k850 next friday and I hope it doesnt come with 031 firmware.

I thought the K department no longer existed, as the Cybershot branded phones are now the C series and that it is now C department

I take the risk because i didn't like earlier firmware. Slow and drain battery fast.
If brod happen again i put earlier firmware and wait until next upgrade comes out!!

yeah im keeping mine on C001 (Orange 031) and hoping for the best, ive just emailed SE regarding a new firmware, will post any response i get as soon as i get it.

Although this is not software issue,I would like to share some news with you guys. I had just gotten back my k850i from servicing because of damaged earpiece(cannot hear what the other party is speaking but can hear when I turned on speaker) , they replaced a new one, not only that, they also DID something to my phone, and now my phone FEELS as STURDY AS K800i !!! NO MORE CREAKING SOUND WHEN YOU PRESS THE BACK!!! THE BACK IS REALLY STURDY NOW!! EVEN WHEN I TOOK OUT THE BATTERY AND PRESS THE BACK IT IS STILL TOUGH AND NO MORE CREAKING SOUND! THE WHOLE PHONE HAD AS IF CHANGED A NEW SKIN!!! WAY TO GO SE!!~~~ And I knew this was my original casing as I still had my martin field protector on my phone. Now it made me kept squeezing my new and more sturdy built phone xD
I do not know if any members who had just recently bought the k850i did your phone creak when you pressed on the back speaker?? If you guys feels this phone is solid enough, it means SE had done something and had improvised on the creaking casing matter.
Firmware however, is still R1EA031, but Im sure there will be a better firmware out!
Posted by JiSm
Yea, I noticed that when sellin them at work. In december they all stopped creaking and were solid as. Maybe an aluminium bracing inside? Couldnt notice anything different from looking under battery socket. Still, I wonder if you can book this in at a service centre as a warranty job?

I dont think the se would do so much more firm for this modell
Posted by AndyXS
I just updated to
R1EA037
via SEUS ! I can't tell anything about changes yet...
Posted by kmcgrane
I can confirm there is new firmware 037.
Hopefully more stable.

Posted by Yanosh94

Posted by kotsianis7
The new firmware is available for ADRIATIC CDA also!
I think that there isn't much improvement other than some text changes...
As you can see in Service menu,it says:Text Revision:BD
Posted by kmcgrane
Bugs present from last are still there. Can't see any difference.
Issue with Themes, video playback still there.
Text is only thing different is software content.
Camera still same 3.7
Some release notes from Sony would help!
Posted by Yanosh94

Very Strange SE Launch new FE with old fw firmware numbers it have to be something in 037 they put back probably to stablelize the BROD but from what you guys are no difference so far i guess they are fed up with blue ring of death complaints so i am almost certain that BROD will be solve while they continue to properly fix us a proper firmware come on sony come the world is depending on you
Posted by Krzysiecw

But not tested it so far

100% agree with you
I think they launch this new firmware because they dont want people keep updating their phones to R1EA031.
they do the correct, now no more BROD ( I hope)
Posted by Duran
A) Please change log SE -.-,,, anyone?
B) Took them 2 months to fix the BROD + add some speed?
C) Speed improvement is nice though
speed was an issue IMO
D) Let's hope for a new FW soon with a new cam driver
E) I hope they fixed the 'being called while listening to music'-bug -.-
F) bye
Posted by The Barron
is this available on customised united kingdom yet?
Posted by dentoters07
