Nothing will happen, your files will be safe as will your SMS etc, the only thing that changes is the firmware.
Posted by Sir Ice
Nothing should happen to them, you should still have them after the update.
It still has the bluetooth headset goes to standby bug and doesn't come out of it when calling or receiving a call.

I think people are having themselves on when they say the camera is quicker. It seems exactly the same as R1A008. It still takes a second or two for the word "saving" to appear after you've pressed the button. It still takes the photo when you hear the shutter sound, but has a saving delay. Where's the improvement?

the improve isn't the time between the shuter sound and saving the photo, it's the time btween shuter sound and taking the photo.
and yes, i feel it, cause now when i heard the sound, i can imediately move my phono, and the photo will be clear.

The improvement is that the photo is actually taken when you hear the shutter sound. Previously, there would be times (Quite often actually) when you'd take a photo and then move the camera after hearing the shutter sound. Then you'd look at the photo you just took and find a blur or maybe a picture of the ground because the actual image captured was shortly after the shutter sound. This made taking pictures of moving objects extremely hard. Even portraits were hard as people naturally relax or move once they hear the shutter. So, this "lag" is what appears to have been fixed with this f/W - the actual time to save is probably just the same. I hope this makes sense.

Could someone with an unbranded K750, who's been able to use SEUS to update to R1BC002 tell me what CDA their phone is?
I want to un-brand my O2 UK branded K750 using DaVinci and change the CDA at the same time so I can update to R1BC002 using SEUS.
Thanks.

@ JoolsG4 - mines an unbranded UK K750i, and it says:
CDA 102338/38 R6A

I method and my W8ooi is upgraded.Wow the camera is really faster but the USB bug is still there
Posted by max_wedge
R1BC002 is sensational.
I updated from R1L002, so am getting the improvements of R1N and R1A for the first time, but missing out on the cable transfer bug
The Good:
Picture zoom function is quicker
Egg timer while zooming, rotating and viewing pictures, which provides useful feedback
Picture browsing faster, menu faster
Speaker louder (haven't tested headset yet)
Backlight doesn't flash on after phone is locked
Improved reception - not fully tested yet but initially seems better. Signal strength meter is higher than normal.
Less noise in lowlight images
No delay taking photo after shutter sound. (this is the most useful improvement of all firmware changes so far)
AND
VIDEO IS AWESOME.....(R1L002 is the broken video firmware, so this is new for me)
The Bad:
Bluetooth security - still asks for file confirmations with paired devices??
Overview
Have transferred 60MB or so without problems. Will relax when I've done more like 200MB. The egg timer is useful so you know for sure you have pressed the joystick while navigating or zooming pics. Menu speed is a little faster but nothing to write home about.
The elimination of the delay in photo taking is the single most useful improvement in all firmwares so far, imho. This photo delay has caused me to lose some great photo opportunities! Lowlight performance has improved (over R1L002 atleast can't say about more recent firmwares).
I did some test videos and they are much much better. This is the second most useful improvement over R1L002. I am very excited about my video camera now! It will actually now be useable
R1L video is truly crap.
No obvious bugs, only good stuff. R1BC002 delivers.....eventually

The problem is I cant get the phone to update through SEUS. Do I have to flash a different MAIN FILE insead of the HONG KONG version? Please help.
Posted by alanoon
The problem is the phone will still restart by it own if you transfer a few meg of file OUT from your phone memory,but not from your memory stick.
Posted by Epedemic
Hmm and a lot of new message tones have been added too... Quite good ones too imo...
Posted by max_wedge

how is mp3 quality? as good as the qualtity from the k750 with the new firmware? or with hissing,...
Posted by avance70
i just flashed my phone to R1NA005 and discovered one bug - it should probably be also a bug for later/earlier versions
i dont use clock in the standby and no screensaver. and so when i lock the phone the light dissapears, and after a few seconds the phone goes to standby. the bug is that there is a little (1/10 of a second) flash just when the phone crosses from the wallpaper to standby!

I suspect the W800's that are updating are unbranded handsets,
dont ask me to explain why SEUS is reporting that no update is available when there is i dont know,
orange and o2 branded firmware will be out in the future, when is up to them!
Posted by line81
I just updated my w800 but I got the version I had before: R1AA008
This sucks.. Is there a new update for w800 or isn't it?!

The upgrade is not just for unbranded phones. My phone is Optus branded in Australia and it upgraded yesterday. I think you O2 people get a bad deal. The worst we have here is Australia is Vodaphone branded/nobbled phones. Oh, and 3G. Interestingly, the day before I upgraded I did get a no upgrade available message which I have never seen before. I'm wondering if this occured when they took the old F/W off their servers before uploading the new one. i.e. less than six hours later my W800 updated to R1BC002

I reckon this could be a hardware fault. This used to happen with the previous F/W's on my W800 and I'm almost certain it happened with the original R1L firmware. I've always found that accessing the phone memory has been unreliable. You'll also notice there is still screen corruption when copying from the phone memory to PC via USB with R1BC002. Yes it's annoying but there is a workaround - Use your phone to move stuff to MS Duo 1st. At least now it seems the xfer problems there have been fixed - It is also far faster to copy off the MSduo.

yes there is a problem with the latest k750 software. when u try and send stuff ( especially images) via bluetooth sumtimes it restarts. yesterday i was sending a photo to one of those picture printing machines and each time i tried sending it my phone restarted. i askd my sister with w800i to send it (with r1a008) and it send perfectly. so i thought it was my phone. i had to send it via infared at the end. wen i got home i updated my sisters software to the new one and i told my sister to check the next time she goes past boots to try if it was my fone. she did and her fone restarted each time. sooo definetly the software but mainly only restarts wen sending to those machines.

My phone is unbranded in Australia and it's not updating. Tried to update anyway and just got R1AA008.

Interesting... My K750i just went dead on me for a second? The battery said it was about 52%. I plugged in the stereo headset to listen to some mp3's b4 i went to sleep, then I put it down on my bed, turned around and heard a sound, picked it up, and the screen was black, a second later the lights behinds the keys lit up with the screen still black...5 seconds later it says insert SIM.
I then switched it off, took out the battery, put it back in and switched it on, once again a black screen with the keys lit up then a few seconds later it came back to the main screen, 50% battery, full signal on O2...
What just happened?!
I'm using the R1AA008 FW with K750i on O2

The mp3 sound quality is just as good as it used to be. I had wrongly mentioned in my previous post that it sounded a bit harsh. After listening to it for some time now, I now feel the sound is just about the same as it used to be.

Just reload (reselect) your current theme and the progress bar will be normal again.
