Wow, I'm surprised at all the bugs related to the K790/K800 firmware... now I'm going to have to think twice about buying this phone.

most are fairly minor bugs. Mine doesnt have any. Buy the phone, you wont be dissapointed. Any bugs will be fixed via firmware updates....

I have a k790i.

Firmware version is different. Its R1CC003. Rest of everything is same like update service software version, camera version, etc.

The bugs are also the same as k800i.

However i noptice some new thing. My shortcuts (joystick) switches back to default locations after restart (sometimes). This only happens with the last shortcut i have assigned.

Eg if i assign right joystick press to games, after restarting or after some time, it switches back to its default location.

Ah I see. Well, it's just those little things that are important to me... but I guess hopefully in future updates these problems will be fixed. So current owners of the K800/790 series, is the phone well worth its money? Hope it is, because I'm really interested in this nice phone. (the display!)

And BTW, take a look at the review at http://www.mobique.com/. Is it true that the build quality of the K800/K790 is like that? ie. the earphone grill and screen display are unaligned.

@obentou

build quality is first rate. mobique must have gotten a pre-production unit or something...

there are a few bugs which will surely be sorted out very soon. overall, i think it's very much worth the money.

mister masseur just got some news updates for the big clock bug thing. it came to his attention that when using 24hrs Time format and set the display to Large, there you can see the bug. but it fixes the problem when you set the time format to 12hrs, can anyone using EU firmware test if it also happens to your phone? or your phones can still have 24hrs Time format and big clock mode?

Hi all
Just found another possible bug, maybe someone else can test this for me.
If I transfer a Midi tune from the phone to the PC either with USB cable or Bluetooth the end of the file is always chopped, it also does this if you play the Midi directly over BT.
I haven't got my M2 card yet to try a transfer that way so can't comment if that way works.

Was going to convert them to MP3 but will have to wait.

I have EU firmware and use 24hrs time format. No problems using large clock view.

That happened on mine when I got it. I set the right shortcut to go to the file manager then I turned it off and back on again and it was back to the default.

Hasn't happened since though, and I've switched it off and on a few times now.
