Well, mine is Week 38 build, which means that it is one of the first k850 phones that made out from the factory. I bought it 21 october last year or something.
I forgot to mention that the fastport looses sound with my headphones a second, and the charger wont connect sometimes.
I wont do anythign to it myself because if I do the warranty is gone and the keypad-surface and loose displayglass can't be fixxed for free.
N85 in a month or two, so no need to really worry anyway

Run your finger nail carefully around the edge to remove the platic cover. Be careful to maintain the sticker that holds it on.

Can you explain more this procedure? Is it true that if you remove this glass the quality of the cam will improve? |

well, yeah, it did improved somehow but not to the level of '"Wow" but in the level of "hmmm.."
It feels empty without the glass cover.. I placed mine back after a short time. |

well
I've got to say, i haven't been following this thread for maybe 2 months..and I have to admit that my k850 has been VERY stable. It hasn't crashed on me once.. even on my holiday where i made 500 pictures. The pictures turned out pretty good as well!
For the first time im actually pleased with my k850

"Ja, wir testen im Moment eine neue Version und möglicherweise wird es danach noch eine geben"
"...Yes, we´re testing a new Version..."

-----------------------------------------------------
But in my opinion it is better to buy a K810i
Less bugs and really better photos

I translated that post in english :
connect: K850i Many owners complain about the forum software bugs.
Steffen Grosch, Product Manager, Sony Ericsson Germany
Penny: This amazes me. The K850i was the first device with a new platform, such devices for free and we obviously very intense. Moreover, keeps us on our support problems to date and the K850i, there's really no abnormalities.
connect: For those who still have problems: If they really have a software update give? The device is already a while on the market.
Penny: Yes, we are currently testing a new version and perhaps it will then enter another.
connect: Even for customers with a branded device from your network?
Penny: Yes. Generally, however, it is so that the operator does not always give each version released, but just skip it.
connect: The built-in mobile phone update service from our unit reported that no new version was available. About the PC software update service "was but a new version available.
Penny: The update directly via the phone is not yet possible. We could Although the service unlock. But because of the large amount of data would be an update for customers without a specific data quickly very expensive option. That is why the fix works currently only on the PC software.
connect: The control with the softkeys on the screen and keyboard integrated into the four-way navigation is apparently not so good.
Penny: The size of display and control elements will always remain a compromise. When can we have a K850i large display and a large numeric keypad to offer a compact area. But admitted: This requires a bit at the beginning of acclimatization.
connect: Will the approach pursued?
Penny: No, in the newer devices and the next we are back to the classic keyboard layout.
connect: The dual card slot, however, found many friends.
Penny: Also it's in the near future rather not give more. |

Sorry but i'd rather have my K850 than a K810. My K850 was stable before getting BROD. The K810 is old and boring.

Blue Ring Of Death. Happens when the phone freezes. The circle around the camera lense turns blue and the phone stops functioning. Sometimes, a simple reboot will work, sometimes the phone is toast, without a more complicated reinstall of the FirmWare.
