R1GJ001 available in Greece 
Just updated... It seems that this firmware is slightly slower than R1GB001... Anybody else thinking the same?
Also, it seems that in this new firmware, after playing a video with the file manager in Landscape mode, the phone instantly turns into standby mode.
It didn't used to happen in R1GB001... |

i got the apac update successfully. i noticed that pictures seem to save faster after they are captured and the file sizes are smaller as well. also, i now have multi-character search which i didn't have before.. so far this update is good.

I have just updated my UK "3" K800i to R1JE001 using the sony update service. does the 1st page need to be updated with this new version - if so what are the fixes? |

Actually my k800i is much faster on R1J than it was on R1G. |

Today my K800 hang for the first time. It has R1JG001 and I forgot to push the HBH-660 button after the conversation. After a while when I tried to call via HBH-660 again the phone hang. I had to take the batt out. Fortunately I already got R3A016 EROM and the phone seems OK after that. |

I just tried SEUS here in Sweden and it only installs R1GB001 on my phone.
I have EROM: R3a016.
It's a Vodaphone regged phone, btw.
Ran Davinci's client on it to gather some info:
***
Client Version 18.3
Detected SonyEricsson: K800/K610/Z710/K790/W850.
Phone Color: Red
Phone CID: 52
Status Ok, OTP Close, CID49, PAF1
Phone EROM: R3A016 prgCXC1250461_EROM_DB2020_WILMA_FOTA_SIMLOCK_FLAFLA_SIBLEY_SEMCUSB
Status Ok, OTP Close, CID49, PAF1
K800 recognized!
***
A quick look there gives me two different versions of the CID!
Both 49 and 52 is listed. How is that possible?

On a totally different note I accidentally killed my phone this morning!
Halfway through the update my laptop died ... imagine my screams.
Resarted and tried agan and it died on me once more.
WSOD!
Grabbed SEUS installation at work and ran update to "same version" and it runs fine now. But on R1GB001 as stated before.

I've seen that a lot of people in the forum have said that SEUS says there are no updates available even when there are - some people are able to update when others can't. Does anyone know why this happens?
I had O2 branded R1ED001 with CID 49. As expected, SEUS said firmware is up to date so I updated on WOTAN to unbranded-uk R1GB001 keeping CID 49.
What I don't understand is why SEUS says this is the latest firmware - I thought R1JG001 was the latest?
Anyway, I updated my CID to 51 on WOTAN thinking that this was the problem. Still, SEUS says my firmware is the latest and refuses to give me R1JG001.
I'm sure someone said that SEUS will update your CID too if it needs to (to 52 for the R1JG001)?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help. |

Man, how can you run out of power when using laptop, LOL. Before this I think updating via laptop is the safest method other than using online UPS system. You should never update any firmware without the laptop connected to the power outlet and batt fully charge. |

Well not all CDA string (customization) has latest R1JG. For example provider in your country may not approved R1JG yet and as such SE will not provide it through SEUS.
I don't think wotan should made your phone can't be updated using SEUS unless you are changing it to CDA string that is not exist. |

@hanugro:
Does your R1JG001 have Bahasa Indonesia T9 feature after SEUS update?
I flashed mine via Wotan to R1JC002 and I got this additional feature. |
