As title says, I just bought myself a K850i and should be getting it sometime this week. However, after reading very quickly through this forum, I noticed the phone has a couple of firmware faults.
Basically, what I wanted to know was, when I get the phone, should I update it's firmware straight away, is the new firmware okay?
Also, just wondering if there was any information about what the phone can do such as this accelerator "thingy" on it, Flash themes, Animated wallpaper etc
I understand there's a search option, which I've used, but there are so many threads on the phone, it would take hours to get through, so if anyone has spare time on their hands to answer a few of my questions, I would be very grateful!
Looking very forward to getting the phone and hope it will be better than my Viewty which I'm selling in trade for it. I'll be sure to share any software etc I have for the phone in the future on here for all the help.
Thanks | |

flash themes - you only have Laser Precision
Animated Wallpaper - yep, its possible for k850
Accelerometer - there are some themes that are "shake control"
issues...
1. dusts, dusts, dusts
2. BROD
3. random reboots
4. video playback "sometimes" out of sync
5. annoying finger prints on the camera outer lens
that's all i can think of for now..
congratulations on your purchase! cheers! |

6. Media player is still too slow, especially when multi-tasking
7. Camera driver could still use some pollishing
8. LED cannot be used while taking pictures, and video mode doesn't allow macro.

they are not idiots, they know about this but they have f****d up on this. seriously, what other words can be used if huge international company is ignorning highest priority issue (BRODed firmwares)? silly, we even don't have changelog for every next firmware released
