Just called SE today and the latewt version available in Sweden is R2L.
engstroms in nacka, stockholm(www.engstromtele.com) is where you can get it done in Stockholm. free if under warranty but it takes 5 days otherwise it costs 250kr to have it done in 3 hours.
Hope that this helps |

Why don't they consider online FW upgrades for the K700i? I presume they do it for some other phones.

There is. Its down for the moment (a few have already tried it), but will be up again "soon" as they say at SE. |

do you have the contact numbers of the sony ericsson shop in glorietta? i checked the firmware of my unit and it says K700i and not K700c. i was informed that if your phone is K700c it should be stated in the box and on the phone itself. i don't see K700c anywhere. My unit is K700i but has the taiwan language pack that's why it has chinese characters on the keypads. but it's still K700i and not K700c. |

I just upgraded my software to R2L001 Today. Most of the bugs are now gone. Haven't found any problem yet!

Here are a few shortfalls that haven't been fixed with r2l.Very trivial really.Games(only certain ones)occasionally freeze,menu seems slower than r2a,batt charge symbol not solved,and maybe one or two other very minor things.Very,very trivial though.A big improvement over initial fw.

I am using firmware version R2L. Have been using it for the last 3 days.
Certain significant improvements to the battery life (also the indicator). However, seems that SE missed out one thing.
The phone never seems to indicate when the battery is fully charged. Does this mean that we can assume the battery is fully charged when there is no more observable movement in the battery indicator?
If anyone knows a way to determine when the battery is fully charged, please let me know. |

The guy of SE center phoned me today! he told me that to repair the missing camera frames I should let the phone the whole day because he will install the full R2L (the complete flashing pack)geez if it will take several hours for online flash the k700i software must be 200mb!!!
I don't if will be able to give him the phone tomorow the center is 1hour from home and I don't want to wake up early

@baja.....I stated this minor shortfall 2 or 3 posts previous.But yes,when the battery symbol discontinues it's visible flash cycle,it is fully charged.

Maybe you should carge and discharge the battery so the battery can last longer |

it's what I do every time,the problem is that the charching parameter is getting crazy:it's fully recharging a 100% empty battery in only 30mins while it should take 4 hours,this battery bug was in r2a desappeared for 12 days under r2l and now come back!
