Something i've noticed on R1ED is that on using applications such as pullface. Where you used to be able to allow permissions to allow the app to read and write data, your options are now limited to always ask or no. |

Why does everyone keep going on about removing the SIM before updating when the phone wont do anything without it in the handset??? |

Wotan recommends removing SIM and cards before updating using their service. The phone has to be booted into a special mode for updating using the USB cable, by holding the 'C' button. I guess there's a possibility of ruining the SIM or card. When updating OTA, the SIM is not removed. |

Has anyone else managed to get the msn messenger client working after debranding their three K800i handset? |

I have the the same problem. I think it is due to lack of 3 certificate, or the preinstalled chat application stub. I have searched here and on other sites, found no solution yet.

Wotan supplies generic, unbranded firmware. It will be upgraded and debranded all in one. You will have the My Friends app after debranding.
You may need two credits now, one for upgrading EROM, one for upgrading firmware.

@ subzuk:
I have se k800i clean from any brandings from the beginig. i cant download chat program with same error message. but if you try with k800 branded by "3" ( i use swedish "3") then its no problem. 3´s fw have extra sertificates or digital signatures which you dont have in unbranded k800. You can brand you phone again and use chat, or wait untill 3 realises chat prog for unbranded phones. I talket to 3 in sweden and they told me that chat prog for unbranded k800 may come out in some month or two!

Thanks all for your replies.
I think I will stick with my unbranded K800i for the time being. Shame though as 3 UK are offering free MSN messenger use until the end of October. Hope they bring out the client for unbraded phones sooner!
Cheers

Well, it's the end of 38th week..anyway, I'm still 'scared' to touch SEUS as I just killed a friend's K750i last week..
working with SEUS is like gambling: alive or dead..at least I intend to try FOTA (I don't know whether it really works or not, quite doubtful about it). |

Ok the firmware is still waiting to be placed on to the SEUS server.
I do know that this week SE have placed some new Firmwares for the K750 and a couple of other phones, but the K800 is still not on there.
There was no promise that SE would release there firmware this week.
Its on the system for a hope release week 38, this doesnt mean it has to be on there.
If you have major problems with the K800 then go to a local SE service Center like CPW and they will flash the firmware with the latest one, These guys do have the new firmware. It was issued to them this week.
You can also post your phone back to SE and again they will flash with the latest one.
You can also purchase the firmware your self and flashing the firmware cost is £5 aprox or 7Euros
If you are just wanting to update the phone to the latest revsion and dont want to pay and dont have major problems with the phone then please bear with the update.
The update should hopefully be on in the next few weeks. But again this is also subject to change.
If i know more i will let you know.

*edited on a Mac of course. Mac: There is no substitute*
N82(YES), iPhone 3G, Shure es530, Nikon D300, more stuff. No more SE stuff, why am I still here? |

I have been saying this for about 2 weeks or so and people still do not get it. You have the immediate choices of: 1. Wait, 2. Purchase it from Wotan, 3. STFU.
Pretty simple.
