Cheers. Was worried I would halt the upgrade if I lifted my thumb. Ah well at least I'll know for the future upgrade.

I am not sure if white papers are supposed to disclose every change in a firmware update, but if those are it, I am dissapointed.

Removing the effects on the music player basically admits SE's mistake on their part by not improving the hardware associated with the phone, and the need to reduce the glimmer to make it run up to speed. My hopes of having improved menu speed similar to the K800i are going down the tubes.

One other thing I found, let me know if R1DA038 fixes this:

Go to camera mode with the rocker switch to the "play" sign, where you view photos. Zoom into any picture, and let the phone run into sleep mode. Try waking up the phone. Can't right? You have to press the "call end" button to wake it up, which quits the whole damn application. So when I'm looking at a map while driving, this is a BIG hassle. Hope this is fixed.

I've got 038 and mine doesn't do that so it seems its been fixed.

Hi Folks
This is my First Post so I'll Keep it short. At what point can you remove your finger from the "C" key During a Firmware update, Recently Updated my O2 K850i from 029 to 038 Via SEUS, But held "C" the whole way through and My thumb was aching by the end (20 min - Well, felt like forever!!!)
Thanx.


You don't need to hold the C Button all the way. Just as it says release the c button

Thanks a lot guys. Good to hear that it is fixed!

Edit: So you can press any button and it wakes up right? If you press the volume buttons, does it show the standby clock?

Actually, I just tried waking up the phone by pressing any button, but it woke up after literally like 10 seconds.. but then again it looks like a programming error... the phone just does the fade effect right away and goes back to sleep.

Mine wakes by pressing any key but instantly goes to a dialing screen if I use anything other than the D pad
grey clock screen starts up no problem from the vol button, both wake and clock are instant , no lag.

I really hope that this is just not true. I have a hard time thinking that they take away megabass and the other stuff that is directly related to the sound capabilities itself. Because if they do, the drasticly change the specs of a big part of the phone. And then you have the right to claim that this product is not like the product you wanted and bought from the beginning! So if they do this i will return the phone and demand my money back!! But i don't think that they will do any changes soundwise. Maybe they meant some visual effects. That's what i think. But i even doubt that they will take those away.

I dont think its the mega bass or that type of things they have removed, its possible the flashing lights etc, which the k850i never had

SE Music Player and Effects:
This has been removed completely from R3A Listing, Possible a error in printing?

Today is 20... When will that much awaited performance firmware will be released?
I am from india unbranded 037
Currently i cant update to 038 ..update says i have the latest.
My bugs so far..
Battery shows 99or 98% even after one full night charge..mostly it should be a firmware problem..
Typing so many words for say in this reply box makes the phone restart...
Megabass and bass dont sound different..
Eq is not remembered..
Multitasking fails sometimes and makes phone restart..

Please help .. When will this firmware be released?
And What is this all about removing megabass ? Where di you guys get the info..
If its true i will return it back

And also why does it take so long to delete a file in media manager?
And games are slow sometimes..
But overall the phone performance is reduced when media manager is running..ie music player..
