When I say that it has a new layout I mean that when you enter to the internet option you see that it's changed. It's different than in previous versions. I'll upload two screenshots in a while. Will add them to the first post

Thanks in advance.

bug found I think, I just transfered new songs to my phone loaded with album art

it seems the album art doesn't show on media

never happen before in the last ver.

correct me if I'm wrong

Posted by tranced
I haven't tried transferring music nor any media content. Will confirm later.

Posted by pavoo
FYI I'm using drag n drop method

Posted by tranced
Sometimes album arts are hidden files. They don't get transfered using this method.

Posted by pavoo
Just now I've tried using Media Go method

still doesn't show the album art

Posted by tranced
I had to manually add the album art through windows media player. My P1 doesn't need that. I just add the album art to the folder I want and it'll be shown in the media player.



Btw, in previous versions I never got the album art working. Just one album came with its album art and I didn't do anything.

adding album art to specific folder by renaming the album art to folder.jpg?
[ This Message was edited by: pavoo on 2010-01-02 23:00 ]


Posted by tranced
It won't make a difference. Seems that we need third party softwares to add the album art to the song(s).
thee non smartphones don't read the image from the folder of from the music is.

Posted by pavoo
I'm also using third party software to add album art



but once transfered to phone

Sorry if I'm asking dumb question, I dont wanna screw my phone up

Posted by xmanjax
One more question...would a r1fa035 Layout_main.xml and menu.ml work on r1ha035? Cuz I have them modded and I would like to use them

Posted by tranced
Remember to back up and then try. Otherwise you know what to do

Posted by xmanjax
I already did it, works ok. Had some problems with restoring backups, but then I managed it...and it really is faster now...what are the other benefits of the update for you guys? I noticed that this new sw takes more of the phone memory I cant really try the camera now, cuz its night here and the low light pictures are still not that good

Posted by tranced
Try the camera with the flash. Can you confirm that the photos won't come out over exposed?

Also, read the first post and confirm the only bug I've found.

Thanks

Posted by xmanjax
The pics with flash are good, not too bright...sadly they are mortly dark again, bad shutter timing.
About the bug...very sorry, cant help you, cuz I already have modded menu and I don't see the alarm at the right side of the screen after the call. In my case it just disappears and when the call time is gone, its there again

Posted by tranced
The alarm should disappear when you make a call. It doesn't in this version. Not a big deal though.


Posted by xmanjax
I found another thing...not sure if that's a bug but it sure is annoying...when viewing and zooming and rotating an image and pressing back, it no longer goes back to the normal size...it exits the preview mode and you need to open it again. Thats not a good thing but I hope I'll get used to it

Posted by Rajneesh17
hey frnds according to SEUS there is no R1GA...... but I'm using it......lol...


@ xmanjax


Thank man for those links......

Correction: now it goes back to normal when you hold 'back' just for a bit longer

Posted by tranced
Regarding the alarm bug, it just happens when the clock is set to big. When small it doesn't happen.

Thanks, xmanjax.

Posted by xmanjax
What I also like is the fast keypad unlock from sleepmode.

And a great thing for me...the YouTube app doesnt slow down the phone any more. With previous sw I had to restart the phone after using it, because all the functions were slow this has been solved now

Posted by tranced
Something hasn't updated is:



The last update was on December 29th and this is from November 12th.

Posted by xmanjax
I think after the update I'm having some problems with signal reception and shorter battery time as a result of that. Anyone else experiencing that?

Posted by tranced
Could be. I'm facing the same.

Posted by Rajneesh17
I'm facing the same.......Network is poor after update....

I had such problems (poor battery life and signal jumps) when I set up R1HA035 for the first time.
But few weeks ago I set up one more time using A2Uploader with maximum charging battery and after it made Master reset.
Now I have not such problems with battery and network signal.

Also I mark one more bug on R1HA035: flash works with jerks, on R1FA035 flash animation was smooth.


Posted by C510
I'm facing problem with flash too. Animations with R1FA35 were smoother.....

Posted by supahsain
It seems like instead of fixing stuff then messed up more stuff1

Posted by C510
new bug: when using camera, "AF light" always ON. can't be turned off when using "flash-lite" (even if we set AF light = off)

c an somebody give a link to download it in CID52? thanks

Posted by tranced
An answer was given to you here

Posted by Coxis
Hi guys, so I have a C510a running on R1FA035. I've read bad comments about this new firmware upgrade. What do you advice me to do? Should I upgrade or not? Has a new software upgrade come out after R1HA035?

Posted by tranced
Update it. When I had the C510 with that firmware version I felt it was worth it.

Posted by Coxis
Even if the signal and battery life get diminished?

Posted by tranced
Well, you gain some improvements. The signal was not that weak though.

Posted by C510
yes, because in this firmware are more pros than cons. For example speed is increased.
Signal reception is worse maybe. But u still can receive and make a call. So i think it is only small problem.
There is also solved problem with USB charging option in service menu. The phone restarting after fall of phone and SIM releasing is now automatic and quick. SIMPLY UPDATE!


Posted by Coxis
Alright, that's that. I will update, thanks guys.

I am using this firmware, but I am facing a problem that sometimes it doesn't show memory card and when I access it, it shows -empty folder.
What should I do, is it a common problem?

Posted by tranced
I never faced that when I had mine. Try with a different m2.

Even I'm having this firmware from a long time flashed multiple times but not encountered anything like this!!
