There are no opinions, to properly test you must compare two or more pictures taken with SAME conditions and with different fw, posts like this can't help in determing which one is better.
What about those people claiming video reduction in new fw, how come you came to that conclusion !?
To many false reports here !
Posted by aremaboy
Video quality remains the same as the previous f/w..as I thought before,this R1CA021 fixes many 'technical' stuffs which seem unnoticable by laymen..we need an expert to explain this..and I'm NOT the one..lol. For me,this F/W is the best..it fixes the theme bug nobody cared much before..

Here are two pictures I took immediately before and after the firmware update. To me they look about as good as each other. Sorry for the boring content, but the phone was the nearest thing to my PC

Hi all
I live in Sweden, have an orginal W800 without any locks or operators brands ..i mean UNbranded phone !!
I updated it today through SEUS, it told me no need to update your phone, but i did that anyway .. the result is same old firmware which is R1BC002 !!!
I didnt get the new one which is R1CA021 !!
so i think only K750 got an update !!! the W800 still canīt update to R1CA021 !!!
Could anyone confirm that please ?? or just me have this problem ?
By the way, something strange happened me today before i update the W800 !! the phone restarted by itself twice ! i dont know why lol ..
Then i decided to update the firmware to see if this will help !!
I wounder, if anyone know how to do a MASTER RESET ?? is it an option in the phone or i need to run a special program for it ?? Please answer me
Thanks all

well, what I call "puke" is your lame photo
it seems you don't know much about photography, otherwise you'll know problems with RED and digital cameras ...
anyway, mp4 tag bug is still here, display contrast is better, and there are no new features as some knowledgeable members here think, lol

More or less is the same, but in the first pic the focus is worst, perharps is your hand

Just wonder-it seems not many W800 users here strongly demand for the new R1CA021 as their fellows' K750 F/W has been released first... Just recall when R1BC002 for K750 was out a week earlier, many posts posted here demanding when the W800 version would be out..is it because they have upgraded to W810?

athos>> i got exactly the same: new firmware, old camera sw and only english language left. tried to update several times but no luck. don't have a clue what to try now.
Posted by QuickShare
@Blade Runner
so you didnt really answer my question, "Did You Upgrade Your Firmware?" try it and you'll know the different, or i might advise you to take few more picture with your R1BC002 firmware before doing so..

we're actually waiting for it to be released..i hope it fixes the m4a tag issue for w800i..

I have not upgraded to R1CA as I have a W800. Not in much hurry either as am pretty happy with R1BC. But, I have taken an interest in looking at the comparison photos people have posted of R1BC and R1CA. I've always found the vertical grid lines in the K750/w800 extremely annoying and the biggest let down of the camera. From what I can see from the R1CA images the grid lines appear to have been reduced. If so I think that is a big improvement.
Posted by exsodius
Wow!!!!
Finally i am very happy after having been through every firmware from the start.
Here is what i noticed:
- Good sound when calling. not any distortions(R1BC002) or hissing sound(R1AA008).
- And my K750 doesn't dropp calls anymore!!! Like it did with R1BC002. This is now a major BIG problem with the W810 Users.
- It's smoother in the meny navigation.
- The sound volume seems to have been turned DOWN a bit. WTF? (I know this because i compared it to my girls K750i with R1N035. Max volume now is exactly the same as R1N035 firmware.
Now i never wanna upgrade again.

one question:
driver 4.4, 4.5, 5.3!!!
what does the camera driver means?
Posted by rockygali
if
tech tells us that.. then itll probably DRIVE us crazy! nyak nyak nyak 
i cant even understand why they named it as ver 5.3 when the changes in the cam is hardly noticeable...

Do you think that they should have increased the camera version to 5.3 on R1BC instead of this latest fimware??

> Do you think that they should have increased the camera

It may look that the version number has increased significantly with no noticable change to functionality on the K750. However, it is worth bearing in mind that the camera software is for a platform and not just for a single phone or small set of phones. As an example, this camera software revision may be to include support for the new 2MP fixed focus lens that SE is using on some of it's newer (non-Cybershot) phones.

Respect! Let me give one note to your post #1. You list ITP CXC 125 932 R1B in every review of f/w. Why? It's a calibrating firmware version for testing capacity for work in the factory and later never changes. Please delete this line coz it has no useful info.
Posted by SEProblems
Sorry if someone has already said this but i don't understand why the update service tells me that the latest software is already installed and then continue anyway? (what would be the point?)
(I wan't the firmware to be up to date for Orange branded w800i, I'm still stuck with R1AA008)

My K750 died last night using SEUS, which is strange because it didn't even get past the downloading updates stage
Im gonna have another go at it now, hopefully it'll sort itself out.

Hey folks,
My battery/or the charge indicator, I dunno which, seems to be acting funny. When charging, it takes 40 mins for the phone to reach 85% charge from 3-4%. Then on it takes a marathon 1 hour to reach upto 100%. Sometimes when I stop the charging when the phone charge indicator says 97% or 98%, the charge indicator shows the same as 100%. This has been the case right from the beginning. So its not a prob with the current software version.
Any pointers to this will be welcome.
FYI: I gotta charge almost daily.

i instal Seus and i get a fatal error (java.lang.reflect.invocation.targetexception) this error apear after downloading the update.what should i do? plsss help me
.Java is instaled
Posted by Ja99iE
SEUS has killed my K750, and now when I try to do the update again, I get the following message:
How exactly are you supposed to repair your phone with SEUS, I thought it had something built in for that?
I've about 5 days warranty left I suppose

Delete DB folder in Program files/Sony Ericsson/Update and retry to update.

"Coz you have got w800 and there is no available update for w800 on SEUS. Wait!"
I was asking what the point was of SEUS sayin 'Continue anyway' when its just told you there is no available update. (whats there to continue with)
I think i'm aware that i have to wait, i was just stating the fact that orange updates are taking their time as i'm 2 firmware updates behind.
Posted by RageRO
i've Delete DB folder in Program files/Sony Ericsson/Update and retry to update but nothing.
i will scan my pc and reinstal windows. hope will work then :s

Thanks, but it still says the same thing. I guess I can use Davinci to fix it, but I'd rather see if SE will give me a new one first, which I guess is doubtful.

Try a Master Reset. Better back up your contents first with MyPhoneExplorer though.
Posted by athos
I solved the problem with my menues being only in english. I went to a store where my friends work. They have the Pro version of the SEUS, which looks exactly the same but you have to login. I tried to flash my phone here. Even here you dont get to choose version. It downloaded the FW (which had a different name under the db folder). Flash went ok, but the menues where still in english. I then did a master reset (again), and now swedish etc are back! So very weird. But it might be a tip if you run into the same problem. Use MyPhoneExplorer to backup, this program rocks!

cheap hotel room. Windows open with sun light. (very blur....)
Pic taken at home in a room last nite with flash on. ( Very blur also)
So what do u guys think? Is R1CA021 or R1BC002 Better?
Posted by rockygali
how bout showin us other pics with yer older firmware that you yourself took.
Posted by danielcps
OK this are few pic taken by my K750i with old firmware (R1BC002)
Asian food. Micro mode (R1BC002)
Some rocks infront of my house. ( R1bc002 done a good job)
Motorola V3X, taken indoors with low light conditions (R1BC002)
Fried 'SOTONG' with MXE-60 flash. (R1BC002 very very Good)
Now do u guys agree with me or not? R1BC002 is better then R1CA021 in taken pic?????????

well you hafta take shots using the previous previous firmware before that...
hahaha! kidding!!!
anyway, bout tha shots... first! yer R1CA021 shots are, pitch black enviro with focus on the TV light source... next is a top shot with all other phones in dim light enviro and the room shot with windows open...
the shots with R1BC002 are, the rocks which was taken outdoors in a very good day. the first macro shot food was good (you never had macro shot with the same angle using your R1CA) then the fried sotong yer talkin about using MXE (you didnt use MXE with R1CA right?) and with you MOTO shot, it was placed under a lamp, with your led on takin that shot but not on the very top of the subject but rather angled in some way that the led wont reflect back at your lens and therefore causing disturbance to the lens which leads eventually to blurring.
my only point is... actually still pix are "still" good or not better with R1CA... IMHO, theres improvement in some aspects. maybe we cant see it in toning down the noise, tho i really can tell theres a toning happened.. but using again! proper lighting, angle and a very good color combination of the subject.. we will definitely enjoy the benefits of R1CA's 5.3 cam version. havent seen good subjects outdoor lately, but ill try suthin eventually...
cheers yall!
