I've tried updating via SEUS to R1GB001 from R1ED001 (Wotan).
The update never actually completes, and stops at 95% then drops back to the Start Update page.
I now have a K800 which shows Software Info as
R1GB001
prgCXC1250210_GENERIC_C_WI R1GB001
EROM: R3A011
prgCXC1250461_EROM_DB2020_WILMA_FOTA_SIMLOCK_FLAFLA_SIBLEY_SEMCUSB
but Customization says
Customization
CDA102511/2 R4A
cxc1250490 R1ED001
1E0W
EUROPE_2
Only real problem I'm now experiencing is the screen display takes about 15 seconds to light up once you press a key
Anyone any ideas what to do?
Thanks in advance.
I've tried updating again but can never get the update to get to 100%. What should I see when the update has completed?
Tried another update this morning after uninstalling and reinstalling SEUS. Update this time worked fine and Customization now says R1GB001 and no problems with the screen display light

Sadly the bug in the File Manager menu where it has the dodgy text search feature that doesn't work is still there. Why this functionality hasn't changed yet is beyond me!

Ah that make sense. I always wonder why it bahaves like when you do a text search in phone book (when press 1 it shows choice of a,b,c,1). So it try to do text search.
I think they have to make the same interface and choose just one between text search or potition search in menu level. That will not confuse everyone when browsing the UI.
Or does it have to do to the fact that file manager menu has more than 9 items listed inside (so the potition search can't cover all of them)?

I've mentioned it too many times now but I bloody wish they included an option to turn off that stupid video preview in the Videos section of the File Manager! It just doesn't work with high quality MP4 files!!! I am so sick of the damn thing crashing and rebooting when I hover over one of my music videos by accident!

I guess if we complain to SE they will take note of all bugs. So lets send email to their tech support.
About high quality video I think lower the quality is better as it take less media on M2 card. After all you won't see much difference in k800i's small screen. If you want to show it on TV then it may be a problem (but can the bluetooth multimedia viewer handle the bitrate?).
I will not update to R1GB yet then! With my new R3A016 EROM and R1ED, the text error is lessen anyway on par with my wife Z610 (just saw it happen once in Z610 after 3 months).

Yes, I can confirm that ALL games and applications installed in Memory Stick Micro are 'erased' after updating via SEUS. They just show the icons but crossed, meaning they are unavailable. However, the info said that it existed. l had to re-install them again one by one yesterday. That should be paid attention to. You may have to back up your files beforehand.

Hello Aremaboy, I'm new member here, though i have knew esato for 4 years.
I just wonder, i tried to update my k800 firmware through SEUS (by menu update service in the phone setting mode) but they say I have the latest software already. FYI I have R1ED001 right now which I got it 2 months ago via SEUS. Why can't I have the newer version like u did???
BTW would u mind giving me ur number where i can reach u?, i think it's the easiest way for us to comunicate since we r in the same country.
It's okay if u mind, i understand completely. Thanks!!!!!

Hi guys I am from India and successfully upgraded to R1GB via SEUS, as "aremaboy" said
"The firmware file downloaded didn't even reach 30%--it just jumped to updating phone stage. It also said 50% updating,then directly completed to 100%." But phone has the new firmware and it is working fine.

@lone_snake:
The update isn't avalaible yet via FOTA (built-in updater client). You are required to update via PC as what you did last time. Is yours APAC K800i? If it isn't, it may be because your customization isn't available atm. You can PM me if you want to discuss further. Thanks. Whereabout are you in Indonesia? As a note, I'm NOT an expert in phone firmware. I just happen to know little about SEUS.
@hanugro:
Did KulanKendi just update your EROM but not flash it..and your K800i is still alive? Hm..if it's the case, why doesn't SE do the same?

@aremaboy
Nope I just update EROM through KulanKendi. EROM update is free and competely seperate from firmware update (although you may do both at once). I have not update firmware to R1GB as I am weighting the benefit and cost (CID51 EROM). If the EROM is corrupt with CID51, there is chance Kulankendi or Wotan may not be able to fix it again. Unless someone said Kulan can work with CID51 EROM. I am not against bringing the phone back to authorised service centre here in Jakarta, but it take time (at least 24hr) while you can try kulankendi to fix it in few mins using EROM updater. Hopefully R3A016 will not crash again.
I will try to update my wife Z610 using wotan (kulan has not got new firmware yet). She wants traditional chinese in her phone so I will use R1GB HGK/TAIWAN. Wotan can run now after I don't use router anymore (unlike Kulan Kendi who can use router just fine).
As I suspect before SE deliberately omit the EROM update via SEUS. I don't know exactly the reason but I hope the decision is not based on that SE can charge us for WSOD, or other EROM problem. Hope they are doing it so they can monitor any problem with specific version of EROM.
@wopo,
kulan kendi has ver1.28. You may try whether it can handle EROM CID51.

@ mdou: cheers m8, i heard that people who had updated their erom couldn't update via seus - just wanted to check that out...
@ hanugro: cid51 shouldnt be a problem for wotan server and co. give them a few weeks and they'll have support for it. The really bad thing about cid51 (in my view) is that u lose the ability to use phone xs/xc and change files inside your phone (like the sound and camera drivers etc...). If you have no intention of doing stuff like that with your phone then i dont see cid51 as a problem |
