Should I update from R1DA039 to R1EA037?
I don't want my phone to die, but I still want to update cause as it is right now, It sucks compared to my K800i...
I wouldn't do that if I were you... IMHO it's better to have a slower FW with shorter battery life, but STABLE and not causing BROD at least...
K850i is like Kinder Surprise - every day is different! :| |

If thats the same problem I've just had as phone only being recognised as mass storage then you need to change phone settings, ie
settings, connectivity, usb, usb default mode, then select phone mode
My k850i keeps altering all my settings by itself and I tried for ages for SEUS to recognise the phone till someone on here helped me. |

Can you not change the default USB setting? I had that everytime I plugged in as my USB was defined to PHONE MODE. There was onetime I had to uninstall drivers and reinstall but worked perfect ever since.

Hi all. I recently updated my phone (k850i) & now it's turned into a brick, whenever I take battery out & try to turn it on, it vibrates, all lights on keypad flash blue & so does camera hole. Tried using SEUS already to fix it. had this problem with my k800i as well, typical!
I have an 8GB SanDisk M2 in it. Does this make a difference?
What should I try before sending it back on warrenty? Because i'd really like to be able to get back my pictures & contacts & all the software on it etc. Also if I do what is suggested am I voiding my warrenty?
All the best,
Wilko |

If you stored all your Pictures and Software on the M2 then you are able to keep all your pictures. In fact, you should remove your M2 before sending in your phone for a warranty claim.
Your contacts however remains in the phone. Unless you use your SIM card to store your contacts.
If you do send it for warranty, More likely than not, your phone contents will not be removed unless it is deemed necessary. The problem with your phone seems to be more of a hardware problem rather than a software glitch. So barring any unforseen circumstances, you would be able to retain all your contact details.
Logically, what I'd do is keep the M2, and send the phone in. That's the best way out.
If your phone is really a brick, there's nothing that anyone can do really. It's back to the factory I'm afraid.
Hope that helps.

Theoretically you can use up to 32GB micro SD-HC |
