@ SE-Naz

By the way, did you phone work with the SEUS when it was branded, or did you never try? [addsig]

@ govigov

Do you mean the K700c? That I'm not sure about. I think the only difference is the languages, but I'm not certain.

@ whizkidd

Have you learnt something new here? I have to say, what I know about the CDA numbers is thanks to gbrooks3. [addsig]

I have noticed more problems with R2AL029. I don't think that firmware is gonna be the latest for very long... if it ever gets released that is...

I noticed that the color of the shadow for icons in dialogs have changed from dark grey to very strange light grey. Try to change profile and you will see that the icon that appears in the window to tell you the new profile is active is looking weird where there is supposed to be a dark shadow... I think this new light grey shadow looks bad - real bad! Kind of like something is wrong with the firmware. I even reflashed with the same result. This goes for all windows that has an icon in it. (Popup window for incomming sms etc. etc.)

@cyber,

Maybe you could post a photo of the problem. Also, reflashing would not help - as firmware is either flashed or not flashed, very rare that blks are missed or corrupted etc

I don't have a camera or second phone right now to take a picture

When I first saw this I thought that SE had just changed the look of the shadows from dark grey to light grey/white... but then I switched to a theme with a dark background for popup windows and I noticed that the change to light shadows didn't look correct... It kind of looks like a bad masking when creating an icon (where the mask is so bad that some pixels show/don't show).

It's hard to explain how it looks, maybe someone else here can take a picture... before doing so, please load a theme with a dark background for popup windows.

There's for sure something weird going on with that firmware (R2AL029)... can anyone confirm if it's been released at service centers yet? (If not, I doubt it ever will!)

@all

Just for the record, these problems aren't SE Tool-specific... It's firmware-specific!

I noticed the light grey also. It really looks horrible.
Is there anyway to revert back to R2AE?

@Sebby

It doesn't work because the CID on the R2AE is 29 while on the R2AL is 36. Gives an error in Davinci
