Hi everyone,
From SE developer world site, at this page:
http://developer.sonyericsson[....]stools/browsing/p_browsing.jsp
there is a document called 'wap user agent strings and profiles', which has been put up only 3 days ago. In that pdf, on the part of K700i, there are 3 versions, first R2A, then R2L, and then R2T. Can this be the new firmware, or am I wrong in my assumption?

if you look at http://www.yamigo.com someone has used SonyEricssonK700i/R3B as user agent and that means that someone has logged in at Yamigo with R3B firmware in their K700.

OK, but what's the R2T thing then?
Anoyone with info for the next update???

Interesting ... I held off on the R2L upgrade, lazy to go to the service centre. If R2T or 3B are released, time for a trip me thinks

I am not able to open the pdf document.

@Nature: The link works fine for me.
Yamigo is a free Wirwless Village server with proxys to Yahoo, AIM, ICQ and MSN that has about 4000 user registered.
@Vineet_d: You have to register at the site to be able to read documents.

I think the developer world site si a great one to register, it's free and it has all kinds of help documents for anything you want to know about your phone. It also has the official theme creator for SE phones.
That's why, seeing R2T on that pdf file in this official site of SE, I believe that it could be the next firmware.

It's strange because on www.yamigo.com I could not find the R2L user_agent ... I saw many people online having this agent, however I do not find it in the user agents lists.
Hope they solve the damn polling issue, enable-ing users to select their polling time.

As a matter of fact I have just consulted those documents (.pdf-s from SE site) and indeed it seems that there is another version of K700i having R2T firmware installed.
Great news!
Posted by aydahm
That's cool, wish we had some info on what changes it came with...
Posted by Valentiner
I do not think that it has yet been released for the major public. I think that it's either a version of K700i young brothers, K500 or F500, or it's just a test version.
Posted by aydahm
The K700 and the F/K500's have the same version name for the R2L as well, so R2T probably is not the software just for the 'youngsters', but I agree that the R2T may well be in a BETA or trial state.

Things i would like to see in the next firmware:
- phonebook problem fixed
- no camera shutter sound when in silent mode
Posted by JKay
I think the R3B you see is the SonyEricsson S700!
Because the phones software are so much alike and the software version of the S700 is R3B so maybe the servers may think its a K700 client!
Posted by aydahm
Yes you are right, R3B is the firmware for both S700i and S700c.
@Laguna: I have the R2L firmware, and I don't have the shutter sound problem. But some stupid things happen when I enter new numbers or change existing ones in the phone book.

I know aydahm your one of those lucky users who can turn it off..
Posted by aydahm
Yes, though I was lucky in that way, Turkey was one of the countries that the K700i came the latest, so I got the phone way way later than most of you guys did, which was a bit unlucky.
Posted by fanch
Agreed, get rid of that silly shutter sound!
Posted by vineet_d
Has anyone spot any difference in the xml contents between these two firmwares....i mean r2l and r2t.....
Posted by aydahm
I don't know if this answer has anything to do with your question, but on the .pdf file it says, for R2L: SEMC-Browser/4.0.1 and for R2T: SEMC-Browser/4.0.2, so there is an improvement in something, though I don't know what it is.
Posted by mwarner
SEMC stands for Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications and Browser is presumably the WAP browser. I assume they have made improvements to the browser! I only hope I can now get to the Results page of Google rather than having to do an 'I'm feeling lucky'!!!
My main use for the SE web browser is to do searches, and the output of all the popular search engines fails to display on the K700 (at least R1A, which is all I have at the moment!).
