you are naturally right in everything you say, and I fully agree with you, and in any other situation I would not argue to be patient.
Its just at this particular moment in time we do know that a new firmware has been made, and we do know that it is being released and uploaded for all regions at the fastest speed it possibly can. It takes a litle time to get the new firmware approved for all regions and by all the operators, and get it uploaded, but as soon as a region is ready it will get uploaded, and usually this process takes some days. Alternatively they could wait and not upload a single firmware untill all regions and all branded versions were ready, then take down the server a day or 2 and put everything on it at the same time. The only thing we would gain by this is that everyone would have to wait longer. By uploading as soon as a firmware is ready even if just for one region, we atleast are made aware that now its happening and firmwares are on the way. So atleast in this period of time when this is happening, I think its only fair to let them work in peace and finish this job. Once done, and we all have gotten the new firmware and tested it, we can start nagging on them again if needed

O.K. Here's my stupid question. I'm in Australia with a W800i which I believe is EU_2. But I'm not sure as one part indicates EU_1 and the other indicates EU_2. My F/W is as follows:
R1NA005
prgCXC1250092_EU_1_C
A R1NA005
LCD SW 0
Camera 4.5
Customization
CDA 102425/32 R3A
cxc1250093 R1NA005
Europe_2
Anyway, the phone has some customised icons for Optus Australia. i.e. Instead of the MORE icon on the main screen I have an Optus Zoo Icon that takes me to the internet. I'm assuming that means it is a 'branded' phone. I know the phone is not locked. I really want the new F/W as I find it really hard to hear people through the ear piece. The USB MS Duo prob also really gets to me. Could someone confidently answer the following:
1) What region is my phone in?
2) Is it "branded"?
3) Will my phone update to the new F/W when released to my region? or;
4) Will I have to wait until the F/W is 1st released to my region and then to my CDA?
5) Do they update the CDA with each Firmware?
6) Can anyone in Australia comment on far behind we were with the last updates? |

1) What region is my phone in? EUROPE_2
2) Is it "branded"? Yes, it is. Any modification to the original software is a "brandization"
3) Will my phone update to the new F/W when released to my region?
4) Will I have to wait until the F/W is 1st released to my region and then to my CDA?
3&4: You have to wait until the FW will be adapted to your brand.
5) Do they update the CDA with each Firmware? No.
6) Can anyone in Australia comment on far behind we were with the last updates? Sorry, I can't answer to this one cause I do not live in Australia.
I hope I've been useful to you.
Have a nice day,
Anger.

Would be great if I could get my Swedish back on my phone.
It's been flashed to R1AA008 successfully, but it seems the only way to get languages back is a hard Master Reset, something I don't want to do...
Oh well.
EDIT: Master Reset solved that.

after months of hesitation, i decided to try SEUS again yesterday.
i was also one of the victims of camera not working problem and i had to use da vinci to recover my phone. though i'm from the philippines, is selected EU_1 and AMERICA_2 customization so i can enjoy the multi-character phonebook search.
i got R1N035 and luckily i have not had any of the memory stick issues.
looking forward to the new firmware  |

Thanks for the quick response. All I need now is feedback from someone in Australia as to how far behind we were last time. |

To those that have debranded their firmwares by davinci or otherwise.
Usually there will be 2 scenarios:
1. You can nolonger use SEUS to update as CDA are not correct for your phone, and you will need to continue using davinci for updating firmwares.
2. Youve managed to put on a correct working CDA while debranding and you will still be able to use SEUS for updating, but the new firmware will be the normal operator branded firmware as registered for your phones IMEI and your back to before debranding (but with latest firmware). To keep unbranded, you will need to keep using davinci for updating.
Then theres the odd exceptions now and then where nothing really fits to normal circumstances and we cant allways give a good reason why. Sometimes updating works after debranding, sometimes it doesnt.

I have the k750i from Vodafone, and i am a resident of Boston, MA USA. Using Tmobile. I breezed thru all the discussion of this new firmware update and saw some comments saying this was for EU_4 only? Does this mean it will not work properly in America on Tmobile?
Thoughts?
