Any others guys?

For the second time I carefully made a comparison test with my K750.
I used Minox Mini Tripod with Cullmann Calamari tripod clamp mounted on it. MXE-60 flah unit mounted I used K750's Self Timer on every single test shot. I wonder if anyone has been this carefull during photo comparison shooting.
The top row reads like this: Firmware R1AA008, exposure compensation (brightness) 0.0, -0.3, -0.7 and -1.0
The bottom row reads like this: Firmware R1BC002, exposure compensation (brightness) 0.0, -0.3, -0.7 and -1.0
As you might notice, only the highlighted -0.7 shot with R1BC002 is strangely softer in the light Chrismas tree area. Be my guest to spot any differences...
The full size original sample is here:

I think the best picture soft is R1L or R1N
after trying R1AA, I actually have R1L and I m very happy of pics...
How u think guys, which is best photo FW?
Posted by Mark_Q
Before f/w version R1AA008 the Exposure Metering Mode was Average, now it's Center Weighted Average.
Personally I have to admid I just couln't imagine this kind of change, and now it's about impossible to demonstrate the difference in real life situations.

I have a problem... I updated my k750i when the last firmware came out and it worked fine... but now when i start SEUS it comes up with "ma3platform.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I have tried installing and re-installing the updating program but no luck... Please help

Thanks Mark, this is helpful post. I can't see difference in picture quality. A word to people claiming that earlier fw were better in terms of picture quality, do this kind of test to prove a point.
Posted by Mark_Q
makavelli132,
Before I started this latest updating I wanted to be sure and decided to delete the previous versions of SE Update Service on my XP SP2 PC. As I couln't remove the software neither by Control Panel/Remove programs nor SE's own Uninstaller I simply deleted everything in C:\\Program Files\\Sony Ericsson\\Update Service folder before installing the latest UpdateService_Inst_2.2.13.7d.exe there. I opted for Run instead of Save.
No conflicts with older files/folders this way. I did not face problems of any kind.

i think SE can best answer the questions of what enhancement they put in a new firmware. but ever since i don't think they officially release any information like these.

Is there any news on when O2 will have approved the new K750i FW? Anyone with O2 updated their K750i to the latest FW? PLEASE LET US KNOW!
Posted by fastnetcaffe
Hi there
What about D750i is there a firmware update?
i tried today to update but is saying that Allredy have the leatest software update...
Posted by fu1at
[b]to those who updated thier K750i to R1BC002[b]
kindly try this.....
1. play any mp3 from ya media player.
2. minimized ya media player.
3. go to CALL LIST options now.
4. push up/down the joystick and hold it... the highlight will start jumping.
5. kindly observe ya media player will pause playing mp3 and it will resume once u release ya push up/down from the joystick.
i have checked with R1AA008 firmware that the push up/down of joystick on the above condition will not pause the playing of mp3 in thier media player minimized in taskbar...

Updated 2 K750i to R1BC002.
prgCXC125954_CHINA_C
L R1BC002
.......
APAC_1
1. No more hissing sound when making call. Good fix
2. Screen has richer colour.
3. No significant increase in sound volume..
4. New firmware detects MXE-60. Flash fires without problem.
5. Joystick more responsive.
It is definitely an improvement from the previous firmware.
Well done... Sony Ericsson

On good ol' R1N035 it pauses the mp3 player if you hold down up/down in the Call List, and if it does on R1BC002 I find it odd that it doesn't happen on R1AA008.

I had the same prob the 1st time I ever tried an update on my K750i. I was using WindowsXP, I was able to get past it by starting from scratch!
First uninstall everything from your PC, SE Update Service, Drivers etc, then re-install (I know it's a pain but its the only thing that worked for me) then re start the whole process of removing your battery, SIM card and begin the update process again, but (and this is the important bit) use a different USB port! It should work, if not let me knw!

I'm having the same "update error" problem. Gotta reset. But 4 which 1 shall I go 4 ?
Reset all or
master reset?
Posted by Xugaa
there is master reset and reset settings...
(be careful, master reset gets rid of everything you have put on the phone, plus some stuff that were already on it...
Posted by aydahm
In Turkey, the most current firmware is still R1N035. I wonder when (or if) a new one will become available.
BTW, quite off the topic but, is this the thread that has the most number of posts on Esato?

What's this new feature I see made on the 24th of February? Says phone-based firmware updates? Does this mean, like the newer Sony Ericssons the K750 can search and download updates from the phone itself? Or does it mean something else?
Posted by baste07
that feature was not confirmed. and using the new FW it looks like that it doens't exists.
Posted by rabitootoo
sony ericsson please make the new w800 firmware available this week...i just tried to update it, says i have got the newest firmware already
please take away the music hissing noise and improve volume of calls. please please please.
Posted by shafayet
Hello!
Could anyone please inform me...how long does it take for the update service to download the firmware?
I have followed all the steps and then it shows:
Please wait. Downloading phone software.
It has been like this for half an hour and still no change! I mean is it stuck or what?
Posted by yrelease
i tried to upgrade today, no go. it says no upgrade available. i have R1AA, and EMEA_6 customization. did anyone get that upgraded or is it just me. thanks
Posted by bosched
@SHAFAYET,
The firmware on the phone can be upto 60mb in size, if you have a slow internet connection then it will take a little time to download, might be worth checking the internet connection activity,see if your pc appears to be be downloading... btw anyone know when vodafone UK will be releasing R1BC002? Just tried to update with no luck:( still on R1AA...arrgghhh

hey, i'm not sure what the problem is...
i got my EMEA_6 to upgrade perfectly.
Posted by yrelease
oh yeah? that's weird, coz i already upgraded once to R1AA and it ran smoothly, only difference now is i got the phone unlocked because i changed service providers. i'll give it another go just in case.
------
alright, tried once more, still says no updates available, can anybody confirm that unlocking changes the CDA or somehow makes the phone not compatible with SEUS?
