I found this in total multiserver about the new firmware K700_R2AE033_RED_CID_29.... and my problem is that i have the 3.9 camera driver. How can I upgrade it?

Hello Dear Total MultiServer Customers,

Please double check the version of your K700 / K700i Camera Driver.

This K700/K700i R2AE033 Firmware version is working with all K700/K700i phones.

BUT if you have NOT installed 3.10 or Higher Camera Driver in your handset you will LOSE the Camera Function in your phone!

Mostly of the K700/K700i phones which are the in street have installed 3.10 or Higher version of Camera Driver.

But please, DOUBLE check which version of Camera Drivre has your K700/K700i Handset installed BEFORE perform any flashing upgrade operation.

If you flash this K700/K700i R2AE033 Firmware version in any Phone with 3.09 or Lower Camera Driver you will get the following message:

'Wrong Camera driver version (3.9). Please update camera version to 3.10 or later'

So please, be carefull before Flash this K700/K700i R2AE033 firmware version to any phone to avoid any Camera Function losing.

Best Regards,
TOTAL MultiServer Team

I have the R2L001 version in my K700i.

About the wap/http problem with surfing..

In the "Kommunication/Internet settings/internet profiles/"..
If you edit your GPRS profile you have the option of choosing
internet mode. ie. Wap or HTTP.

Hope this helps those having a problem.

@RUBEN19800

I upgraded with Total Multiserver when I had camera software version 3.9 and, as they warned, I was not able to use the camera and received the warning that they stated. And as far as i know there is no way to upgrade the camera software, bummer. At least I should be able to flash back to R2AA and get the camera back - but I want the improvements of this new firmware.

@kenski

I'm sure that when the update is available at service centres and they provide the update for you, then the camera software is updated as well.

The software available on non authorized update servers is not official software and therefore they don't have the camera software in it. The version they have is probably a cut down version that Sony Ericsson used during their testing on phones that didn't need the camera software to be updated. The version they got hold of simply lacks the software for the camera.

I have no idea why people keep playing around with software from these servers... even less, how can some one be so desperate for an update that he installs a software that was known to disable the camera? This "hunt" for new software has gone to far!

You can update to R2AE003 without loosing the camera function using DaVinci server! I feels thats its better than Totla Multiserver!!

www.Davinciteam.com released the firmware. It updates 100% correct your phone, and will update the camera driver also to version 3.10. In same time with any upgrade you will be able to have your phone "no shuttersound"

About the flashfiles, these files are 100% generic files, but just not yet available for your regular service center. (this time only for R&d centers)

hehe... The great thing about my service centres is that they have no idea what they're upgrading your phone to, and aren't even kept in contact by se about when new updates are going to be released.

Smart se, real smart. The secret of the firmware version is still safe.
