O2 branded phone (CDA etc earlier in thread & I cant be bothered to find it) anyway - first lock up on this W27 R1L handset in 2 months - happened when I docked phone - screen went white for few minutes but recovered when I undocked phone. Maybe connected to problems with charging phone.
What I am asking though...is R1N really worth the effort? I have seen lots of fixes and new things broken by SE and a few people desperate to go back to R1L. I wonder since O2 & Voda have stalled R1N release. |

- Bluetooth doesn't start automatically from java applications anymore. You should enable BT manually before running BT Explorer, Bloover etc.
I assume you no longer get the message "Allow application to create server bluetooth connection?" if Java attempts to make Bluetooth connection? If so, i'll update the first page accordingly.
Thanks

Thats right, BT Explorer just goes straight to a error message of 'failed to complete this enquiry' |

IMO R1N is far better than RIL. I upgraded last week and havnt had a single crash unlike R1L which would crash 70% of the time when watchin videos. No other probs at all so far... improved video quality is nice too!

Nope, if BT is turned off completely (no BT icon on the screen) I get this message.
If it's on, it's OK.
I suppose it's not a bug. It seems to me that it's a security issue.

I've just had a bit of a issue with a R1N035 K750i and a HBH-660 BT 1.1 headset.
Basically when audio is transmitted to the headset I got about 5 seconds worth and then the audio cut out. The BT connection is still active, the call hasn't been dropped, and both devices have plenty of battery life.
Switching the call back to the phone continues the call.
Tried a number of BT 1.1 headsets and they all seem to cut out. Tried the same headsets against K750i's with older firmware and they work okay.
A selection of HBH-662 BT 1.2 headsets work with the R1N035 K750i...
So, it looks like R1N035 might have issues with BT 1.1 headsets. I'm going to test this later today with other headsets/K750i's... BTW, I did a master-reset on the R1N035 K750i and it made no difference...

Are you watchin full length decent quality films though? I watch at least 1 film a day whilst at work... it tended to crash if i went back through the menus too fast straight after watching a film or I would get back to the standby screen but when i lock the keypad it would reset itself! It hasnt happened since i got R1N so im happy! Maybe ur one of the lucky ones... i'd still go with R1N though, just for the higher quality video recording

I've been on R1N for a week now and I think it's bette than R1L.
I also use an HBH 662 and it's working fine. The only problem is that u can't use voice commands but I couldn't do that with any other f/w |

Nice job you have - if you are able to watch a whole film while at work!! Mind you I'm not sure if I could watch a whole movie on my mobile phone screen even if it is as good as the 750i.
I'm on R1N and have had no problems either - i'm on an O2 contract phone from phones4u (this is unbranded except a few of the menus have links to o2 services) |

The only problem on R1N so far is this;
When you move a file into another folder, when you get the list of which folder to move it into, it doesn't show up in alphabetical order.
I've put the "sort by" option to "by name" and all my folders & files are in alphabetical order, except when you move a file, it shows the folders randomly. No big deal but I like my stuff to be organised & neat.
Does anyone else have this? |

I have too many GPRS problems since I updated my phone to R1N. The phone also resets from time to time when navigating through menus on a fast manner...

Yeah. R1N is better than R1L, but using the original USB cable to transfer files between phone and PC seems less reliable in R1N than in R1L. The menu in R1N appears less smooth than in R1L as well. |

fu sony ericsson 
that's it this is the last draw I don't care if they can make a phone that turns into a car my next phone will not be a sony ericsson, they're quality has been degrading t630 - k700 - k750 I owned those phones and each new phone seems to get worse than the last one, seriously I've never had so many problems with a phone (or any other electronic device before in my life), even my pc needs less maintinence than my phone and it can do so much more
sorry guys but after upgrading with every new firmware my phone just gets more bugs and I wouldn't have upgraded in the first place if it didn't keep crashing, to think after 4 months they can get the firmwae right, now I have a 2 mp camera phone with no camera, and which wouldn't accept more than 10 files at once, and since I am in friggin china (not hk ) I have no idea where a service center is (if any) I went to the place I bought the phone from it's the largest phone / operator supplier here and they told me that they had no idea the phones had firmware upgrades 
I'm seriously considering getting a new phone
since I have about half a dozen other sony products which work fine and I love dearly (cybershot / psp ...etc) then I guess the problems are from the Ericsson side
