I am using R1A.. firmware and wondering whether any of the newer firmwares address these issues

1) Is it possible to have a different ring tone and/or message tone for each profile? Is it possible to set the message tone volume seperate from the ring tone volume?

2) If I set a profile to have Accept no calls (as opposed to call divert) - if I switch the phone off and back on the profile updates and turns Acceptance of calls to on. Is there a way to keep this setting in a profile so that it doesn't revert every time I switch it off and back on?

3) Is it possible to have all information syncronise with Outlook - i.e. Birthday's, Mail addresses? At the moment I only get phone numbers and one email address

Camera sounds are muted when in silent mode in some firmware locales (EU_1 , but not EU_3).



You can change this as I have EU_1 and I can't mute the sound

I've updated my phone to R1L002 and I dont have an MP3 folder on the memory stick?

Also, I turned off my phone last night and it turned itself back on. I noticed the screen went white and flashed, just like it did when it used to crash running R1A044.

I really can't understand those people that want to change away from this if they are not having any problems with it?

When did you get your handset? The early handsets crashed loads and so we had to flash our phones

My phone is 05W18.

I updated as I was getting some software crashes connecting to BT and using the video dj.

Although I agree with people who are not having problems chosing to stay with their original release, the whole point of software upgrades are to correct issues. Yes - new releases may invoke new bugs but you would expect fewer issues than the original build.

Its all very well staying with the original release, but if, like me, you start getting problems, you cant bitch about it when their is new software out there which corrects it!

Hello,

I'd like to see new features in upcoming firmware. Do you know how we can contact developers to ask them ?

Here is a short list of some things I'd like to see:
- call duration in incoming and outgoing calls
- display of battery meter, reception meter, network name or whatever the user want (a kind of reminder) on the screensaver
- ability to add more than one mobile, profesional or home phone number to one contact

Settings - Calls - Time & Cost (Cost is operator dependent).

Then it won't be called "Screensaver" anymore.. it's called wallpaper - already there. Just turn off your screensaver then.

Settings - Display - Screen Saver - None

errrmm. have u even tried? - Explore your phone or read the manual

I'd like to get it for each call directly in the menu of incoming, and outgoing call (just like Nokia phones).

I have this function in another phone (Alcatel OT756). It's pretty useful. By the way screensaver is meant to extends battery life contrary to wallpaper isn't it ?

@dsi44

Call times - I would like that too

Screensaver - good idea

Ringtone - R1L is no different - indeed this is common to SE phones.

Sorry cant help much but at least some answers.

Since upgrading to R1L firmware my Jabra BT200 bluetooth headset won't connect/can't be seen by my k750i.

Ideas, help?

Contacted SE support this morning but haven't heard back yet.

You have to format your memory stick, after installing the new firmware.

Umm, I'm really not sure about that. I never have, and my phone works just fine.

Will changing the CDA only using DaVinci erase the phone memory?

I have just noticed that after installing R1L002 using DAVinci - I dont have any info on the Camera Version in "Software Info" when you do a >*<<*<*

As I stated in another thread the camera has not worked since going to either R1J/R1L

Has anyone else got this exact problem, what should be in "Software Info" ??
