Have upgraded to R1N on Orange UK, all phone settings/content unchanged. No problems to report, camera quality improved and signal strength seems to be stronger.

Am I right in thinking that, although my black handset appears non-Vodafone-branded, the fact that it has CDA102338/68 means that if I SEUS it, the Voda branding will reappear? If so, I'm bloody angry, since it cost me a great deal of time and effort persuading Voda to give me an 'unbranded' handset in the first place.

Finally this firmware solve my phone misery!! Video and photo are back to original state and I just love it! I don't think I'll simply apply firmware updates from now onwards..
Anyway, I don't face any problem transferring mp3 to my phone at all. It can be seen in the phone and can even play. I've tried transferring via Ir and cable.
note: originally it's unbranded phone. |

Just tried - SEUS gives OK branded handsets R1L - good old SE call centres. Finger on the pulse and all of that.

@tomchadwin
When you lock at the Sim lock menu If the Icon is OPEN LOCK (like all the other should be) the the phone is unlocked... As to is the phone branded I think if the phone is branded it will say when you press <**< it should say if it is personalized or not... Another way to tell is the icon on the top right hand corner... On Vodafone the middle button will kick off vodafone life if it is branded...
Dont play with any codes in this part of the menu though...
I am pretty sure that there are codes to lock and unlock this and all the 5 represents is the number of tries for each...
I dont think besides SE and the Service providers no one else has this codes... But in theory they exist somewhere...

Does anyone have a good tip for backing up the phonebook without putting it on the simcard and not using the stupid window phonebook? |

Just updated my unbranded K750i from R1A044 to R1N035. So far:
very slightly better video artifacts.
Slight improvment in low light noise for still pics.
Menu speed is clearly faster.
No bluetooth file transfer confirmations for a paired device.
Don't see any improvment in display color/contrast.
Signal indicator shows better reception, but for me is actually worse than before.
cursor position no longer blinks in alarm and timer.
Still the best SE handset I've had, really impressive phone. |

for the last 8 days I tried to update my K750i from different location but no use. The screen shows updating device........ 0%
after 3 to 4 hours message will apperar "Error in communication with the device" and "Remove the battery and reisert it"
Then web page appear as follows:-
Error in communication with the device Make sure you have removed and reinserted the battery. Then try to start the device.
If your device shows an error message or does not start at all, click Recovery Mode If your device behaves normally, click Start over.
If the problem persists, please contact support.
In my PC - C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\software-data
two files are there 1. HL1_125952-EU-1-MR2_000000_0000_R1N035 and 2. HL1_125953-EMEA6-MR2_000000_0000_R1N035. So what was the problem is it possible to update without connecting the update site I mean from PC. pls help.
