I'm on flext 30 for £25 a month and the handset was free. So yeah i did do the same.
@superleeds;
That's not surprising as R1EA033 is for unbranded phones are far as i an aware. |

I read in a w910i forum that indicates that R1EA033 is actually the western-europe version of R1EA030, if anyone can confirm this it will be great. I haven't found the change logs for R1EA033 anywhere on the web, I will wait for those before I decide to update.
So guys... no one here on R1EA033 is experiencing heavy battery drain issues? Or this problem is only noticeable for those who upgraded straight from R1CA029 to R1EA033? 4-5 days of standby down to 1-2 should be pretty noticeable  ?

Well, I haven't been able to update to R1EA033, but since my update to R1EA030 I have also noticed this increased power drain. Maybe not as much as in your case, but definitely, the battery drains faster then with R1CA029. |

I updated to R1EA033 last night, it seems the tiniest bit quicker than the previous version.
I have noticed that the menu icons appear in a smoother way when return to main menu by pressing back. (this may have always happened).
Also, this firmware has track skipping ability in walkman with accelerometer now. Hold the walkman button and shake phone once to one side will make it skip forward and back through tracks.
Found a bug when setting the date, If you press C to cancel what you have entered it will not delete the last character you entered but instead revert to 01/Jan/2000.

even with the old firmware on the walkman w910i did skip tracks by holding the walkman button and shaking it they had that already lol
if anyone thinks otherwise then post but im sure they can skip tracks even with old firmware

old firmware could randomly skip to a new track by shaking yes, but none (other than prototype FW) could skip forward and backwards through a tracklist by flicking to one side.
Perhaps I should have made that more clear in my last post. |

I can assure you that is also possible on R1EA030  |

No, this has always been possible as far as I know. My R1DA038 firmware does this, and it was always reported as being able to do this in reviews, etc.

Thanks F.B. for your feedback. I will do some more research to see why my w910i is eating battery like crazy. I will post my findings if i am able to find the cause. |

I also found something interesting in SE-NSE forums. In this thread here a user has posted a list of firmwares generated directly from SEUS data. Here is the list for w910:
W910: R1CA039 R1DA038 R1DA039 R1EA030 R1EA033 R1EC001 R1ED001
So how come we cannot update to R1ED001? Am I missing something here?

OMG R1ED001. Where the hell is that for? Anyone on T-mobile uk had any luck updating from R1DA038 yet?
One this that i am wondering, are SE going to update the w910i and k850i to use the new menu layouts.
Still waiting for my replacement handset after my w910i decided that the left soft key going bright red was all that the handset wanted to do. |

R1EE001 are you sure?? AE033 was only a week or so ago, then there was EC01, and now your reporting EE :S What network are you on?
Could you take a picture or the service menu, just to prove that this is possible. Not calling you a lier, it's just that it's really hard to believe.
Yes actually i was mistaken i accidently wrote r1ee, meant to write r1ec001, i have no idea why i wrote ee wtf....sorry bout that.
Anyway leme repeat myself so the question gets across:

R1EC001, i guess thats the latest version is it good or bad or what?
Apparently i havent been getting any problems, maybe a couple of times it freezes and some slow-downs, which is a minor thing, not much big things happened on the phones, so is this ok?
BTW im on Orange network.
