I see... I can't wait to update then... I'm on APAC right now, still no updates for this region as of late. I will give my thoughts and what I notice to be different on the forums once the update becomes available. |

China, nothing new on update plan.....  Latest bug I've found is the BPM varying when playing mp3's.. Anybody else have same problem..?
@obentou, I find on mine sound quality is quite satisfying. I use B&O A8 headphones. |

After updating to 37.. (Branded 3 phone in Aus)
Most annoying, MMS won't send even though settings correct. 3 support no help.
Bestpic still crashes phone or the screen goes black even though the shutter is still open, and it takes the same pic 9 times occasionally.
UI is slightly faster but crawls when multi-tasking (eg. playing music and taking photos).
Icon changes.. esp main menu which doesn't look as crisp to me now.
Misc crashes: eg. today phone froze when zooming a photo.
PS. Why don't SE publish what each fireware update contains??? What known issues there are that haven't been addressed yet??? At least acknowledging real issues!
Ok, enough whinging for one day:)

Hmm, I'd rather have the HK firmware. Damn APAC, I can't read simplified Chinese at all! |

hmm, you confusing it with R1CA037? R1DA038 is apparently a new hotfix. |

Yeah but that's bad news for many people who're waiting for the big firmware update before buying. |

Anyways, it was destined for the new update to arive next year. Who wanted to buy it already has. IMO this one is just to quiet the masses for some time. |

Just updated my O2 branded phone on SEUS, had a slight panic as Seus crashed at 18% so had to reload and start again but it came straight back up at 22%
Not had time to look too deeply at the changes but 1st thoughts are that media player is definately faster and the way in which photos are shown has changed, when you scroll across to next pic, its quite a lot faster and also the pics kind of shrink back in size as they change.
sms settings still work ok.
Also noticed that the camera setting icons have changed or at least the Edit icon, as its gone and the Edit screen is automatically shown in full rather than having to select it.
Will see if I can see any other differences. |
