Found a new bug on R1GB001: when I answer a call and hang up afterwards, the keylight stays off! To fix this you will have to put the keys on to lock and the lights are fixed. Very irritating...
Phone history: T20e, T100, T630, K600i and now K800i |

Sorry no O2 or any Carrier specific FW. All those are non-branded firmware files.

I'm having the exact same problem, I got someone to ring me to see if the phone screen would light up but it doesn't, making it very hard to see who's phoning >_>
Is there a way to use the generic firmware on an orange-locked phone or will it break it? Should I just wait for a fix? |

Other finding on R1GB001:
Very very occassionaly the phone is unable to display the 'green balls of volume' when you press the volume key on the right side of the phone. When you are playing music via Media Player or File Manager, then trying to turn up or down the volume, the phone works normal as intended, BUT very very occassionally fails to display the volume status. It has happened twice on my phone. The only solution to get it back is by restarting the phone. I still don't know how to reproduce this malfunction intentionally, as it is highly intermittent. For most days, this never happens at all.

i get that too sometimes, i had this issue with both R1EG001 and the new firmware. All i do is to go back to the standby screen by holding ther back key down and then locking and unlocking the keypad. That solves the problem for me...
I updated my phone to R1GB001 today using SEUS. All went smoothly  . The games and applications folders work fine although when i start an application/game for the first time following the update, i think the app reinstalls itself before starting. I think this could be bcos of the java update from v7.1 to 7.2.

I have updated my firmware to R1ED001, but when synchronizing with MS Outlook contacts, the following happens:
1. Phone freezes at "Sending 277"
2. Sync Summary shows:
Items synchronised: 0
Errors: 1 General
Error due to: No connection - OR_MPM_OBEX_OP_TIMEOUT
3. Phone restarts to USB connection screen for selecting File Transfer, Phone Mode or Print Pic
Anyone knows how to overcome this problem?

R1GB001 solved this problem. |

So, the intermittant missing volume indicator is confirmed. I experienced it randomly, many times, and suddenly it comes back by itself some time later or by rebooting the phone. |

I think I have noticed that on previous firmwares too. I don't believe that it is a new bug in R1GB, although I have to say that I haven't added it to the first post despite seeing it myself . Can anyone remember when they first noticed this issue? |

I just installed R1GB001 over the 3G network, it took about 10 minutes in all. So far, I haven't foticed any problems, but on the other hand, I haven't noticed any significant improvements either. One difference is, that the selected icon on the "desktop" is now kind of flashing, which is somewhat irritating compared to the prevous behaviour, when it was only slightly enlarged and with the highlight image behind it. |

Just updated my friend's K800i via SEUS. This time I decided to remove his M2 before running SEUS and voila...ALL games and applications are in tact! All work perfectly, no need to re-install anything. Hope this helps. |

I tried it again today and it wrote the firmware 100%, I turned the phone on and it said 'please wait' for about 7 seconds and now the lighting problems are fixed 
I noticed on the SEUS it downloaded a new update, well it got to 2% downloaded before starting to flash, instead of staying at 0%, so try again today maybe they sorted it out 
Pressing buttons makes the screen bright again! Yay! |

I made the upgrade with the M2 card installed, (I read the notes about problems with apps and games on the M2 card in this thread after I made the upgrade) and those games and programs that did function before the upgrade still functions, but the ones that didn't function before still do not function. I can't get Opera Mini 3.0 to work, for example, and was hoping that the fw upgrade should fix that problem. I have even made a master reset of the phone with no difference. |

Just retried updating, all is now well.
It did linger on 94% for a long time, but then jumped to 100%
Someone mustn't have but it on SEUS properly first time round |

i removed my m2 stick before updating as well but all my apps were installed on the phone memory so im not sure whether that solves anything....
@mwarner - i think i first saw the volume indicator bug on R1ED001.
Has anyone else spotted the new 'speed dial' menu in Settings>Calls. Im pretty sure ive only seen it on the new firmware |
