Hello,
I backedup my W995 and then upgraded the software but now when I try to restore it won't and just says error with no explanation, how do I fix this!?
I read something about reinstalling the usb drives but how I do this?
I reinstalled the PC Suite but it still does not work :/
I hope you can help because loosing all my contacts is a rather daunting and unpleasant feeling
Thanks!!

The same thing happend to me! I was totaly freaking out, but then I gave it a try at my place of work (copied the backupfolder). And here it worked - because I had a newer version of the PC Suite (6.0). I was using the 5 release at home. Checking for updates in PC Suite 5 will not give you any info of the 6.0 release...

Anyone have any idea how to reactivate WiFi auto-connect when your provider has disabled it (3 Aus)? (without rebranding the phone:)

Also, just noticed the same issue I used to get on my K850i when using BestPic. When zooming a photo taken with bestpic the zoomed image is actually the main BestPic photo, not the one being zoomed?

Flash lite working alot faster. No more reboots.

phone_app.cxc R1GA028: http://www.speedyshare.com/636222279.html

phone_app.cxc R1GA031: http://www.speedyshare.com/587793719.html

Both work with R1GA026 FS. Just unpack and copy file to /boot with A2Uploader.

R1GC002 is for W995a (America), heard nothing more about it though.

Is there any way to check for a firmware update using the Update Service without having to plug in the phone? Its rather tiresome to turn off, remove and replace battery, hold 'c' and then plug-in only to find out later that no firmware has been released for your region.

You can by using your phone update service.Go to Settings/Update service/search for update.

(That for some reason always says I have the latest softwate but i actually don't.)

The over the air version of the new firmware always seems to lag way behind what you can do via the PC (but losing all your data in the process). The handset method retains your data.

I got the new (generic/SIM-free) firmware for my W995, but I still don't have a web feeds option in the media menu! When is SE going to notice this omission?

They NEED to release a firmware update with a new cam driver... I was at a party yesterday night and a friend of mine compared my w955 with his c902 and he just said that his camera is better and his was right. FAR BETTER CONTRAST AND SHARPNESS. Don't know whats wrong. I remember when i had the w810 and the colors were so good. The pictures from my w995 seem to be taken from dirty lenses.

btw new firmware for w995a: R1GB003

I see there are a number of new firmware updates since R1FA035, but SEUS doesn't see any updates for my w995a. I have updated the phone with custom acoustics files, a different camdriver and a customize_upgrade.xml file to be able to watch Youtube on the phone over AT&T's network. Are other w995a users able to get newer firmwares? Do I need to flash the phone back to all SE firmware files for SEUS to see the updates? Please advise. Thanks!

Hey I just got my C905 replaced with a w995 and the album art that i could see when my memory card was in the C905 isn't visible on the W995. You can only see album art when music is playing. It's got software version RIGA026,Will doing an update get the art work back in the list of albums? Has anyone solved this already?
