same here! i noticed some strange distortions in sound when talking at first call after updating to r1aa008. I was not sure is it me or maybe my phone dying, but now it looks like it is one more "optimisation" of new firmware, you can hear same effect when listening mp3s at very low voulume...really, i want r1l back

Pffff... I had a big fight with my W800i and the so called improved update service last night!!! I got the goddamn script error message at the last green bar... I tried everything (MSD in... MSD out... settings reset... reset all... etc) but it wouldn't update... everytime I got the same error!!! And of course the phone was f***ed like with the previous update tool. But the last time I tried I had my MSD in (I don't know if this matters, but just for the record), I did a master reset all... when the reset was complete (I did NOT let the phone start up) I took out the battery just before the phone came to the point of selection "Phone only or music only", did the update for the last time..... and it updated perfectly!!! Result... new update.... but NO Dutch phone language... but luckily it does have Dutch T9.
I'm disappointed that SE didn't fix this bug (I had the same problem with the old update, but the master reset fixed it all and I had my language back.. no problem). I will probably NEVER use this update again... horrible times when your phone seems dead!! |

Can anyone confirm that they have managed to achieve an update of an O2 branded K750i with the stand alond SEUS client. I believe that the client goes through the motions of appearing to update, but restores the R1N035 firmware.
Also can anyone confirm any improved bluetooth functionality with the new firmware, in particular correct backward compatibility with BT1.1 rather than just the newer (and mostly unsupported) BT2.0. In ny opinion, this inability to properly connect with BT devices, specifically in car handsfree devices, is the most serious failing with this handset; this is a fundamental safety issue with the 'phone, not simply an added extra. |

download flash from macromedia site, it will work. If it is saying you have incompatible version, then you doesnt have latest one |

updated last night...
using 'virgin mobile',
in uk on 'europe 2'.
update using 'update service 2' went fine and loads of things have been made better and fixed etc. was originally trying to use the update service online at sony ericsson's site, but it told me i was updated, when only really on r1n035. all things on first page of this topic for this firmware i have found to be true... i like that when scrolling through pictures, music, videos etc... there is little or no slow down. also music/sounds/calls on headphones and speaker sound a lot clearer than before and the max volume has been increased.

Updated the first post with the new link to SEUS II and adjustments to the instructions. As I have yet to use SEUS II the suggestions when something goes wrong may no longer be applicable.
Any help filling in the Firmware Update table on the first post (i.e. which UK branded phones update to which firmware version) would be much appreciated. PM me the details and I will add them to the post. |

Here's an interesting observation of the new R1AA008 F/W. I'm just backing everything up before doing a master reset and format of MS as I'm not happy with file transfers from the phone and thought this might help. I'm still happy with all the other improvements though, especially the increase in ear piece volume. However, the phone already froze once when trying to zoom in on a photo. As usual the SE File Manager keeps dropping out - I had noticed this from when ph was new. But now it goes further - The phone resets itself after a while and then, obviously, fails to copy. It's done twice to me in less than 10 minutes. Try it yourself. While doing so watch your screen and see if you get weird flashing graphics while your transferring files. I hoping a master reset may help the situation. If not I think SE need to hire themselves some good testers. I'll volunteer for sure!! This and the copying from MS to P.C. should have been quickly picked up. If I were testing I would have filled the memory on both the phone and MS and copied both ways. They obviously didn't test this as it has only taken me a few hours to find faults in the new Firmware. Maybe we should rename SE to Microsoft as they seem to need to patch S/W just as frequently to cover bugs!!! I would still say this F/W is better that R1N!! |

I shocked that it work for an Australion Optus branded phone. Have you download SEUS2? When I ran it it indicated Eu_2 update and ran like a dream. I've got a feeling that a master reset is probably needed to really sort things out. |
