I dont know whether this is related to the latest firmware or not, but since i temporarily changed sim cards today (for a reason i wont mention), and then put my regular sim back in, whenever i try to charge my phone im told it has an alien battery.

Not a problem, just bizarre since ive been using the same battery since i got the phone - the battery that came supplied with it.

have you tried the basics? or have you tried everything?

like master reset? or turn the phone off then remove battery and place it back.

network selection turned automatic? or manual?

yes, the most stable so far. R1N introduced the cable file transfer bug - then R1AA solved that and introduced a new phone to pc file transfer bug.

However for the risk of having difficulties with phone to pc file transfer, R1AA has louder sound output in both speaker and headset, and a few other minor improvements.

If on R1N and suffering usb cable problems then upgrading to R1AA is a must, but otherwise there is not much appeal. Why fix something that's working?

i think the issue of "why fixing it if it works" is really not an issue.

i mean we love technology and the benefits that comes along with it.. its not actually fixing things... its improving or developing it that we love the most.

thats what tech is all about.. making life easy. so we whos in the know-how with regards to these upgrading stuff like to be updated all the time. thats all i wanted to point out.. its not fixing things.. its getting along with technology, since the fon is equipped with such things. why not use it.. but wots lacking here is the continuous support coming from the manufacturer... continuous meaning after firmware release they hafta take note of the point from where they left off. that they have to notice theres something else to upgrade...

well infairness with SE, i guess theyve really working hard about this.. its just that... customer support lacks. in some ways.. they hafta let their consumers know wots cooking behind the kitchen.. thats all.

OK , now i'm freakin OUT ! nothing workin for ME.

-yea, i upgraded the phone(k750i) to R1AA008.
- but nothing seems , IMPROVED.

-my pictures are coming with MORE gamma and blurry at edges , the colors aren't coming good.


*this is the picture when i had R1L002 Firmware , that time the pictures where sharp and well saturated.


* & NOW, this is same location picture with same settings of its pervious taken but with R1AA008 firmware .

--- CHECK the difference between these 2 pictures ......, i WONDER is it UNIQUE case with my camera or ALL u ppl are getting similar kinda CRAPPY pictures with R1AA008?

---- i DOUBT cuz , such BAD saturated pictures started coming when i was using R1N035 , then a BUG of the firmware started to corrupt my MS , from then on-wards my camera started taken SUCH crapy pictures.( check the wiERD folders i had before on my STICk )

---- ok before upgrade the firmware to R1AA008 , i FORMATTED the Picture folder( which had the wiERD folders) of Memory stick with phone, it cleaned all the JUNKY folders created my the BUG . so i wonder did formatting only the PICTURE folder which had BUG...., cleaned all the junk from the phone ? or should i have done a complete memory stick formattin ?

- do i MASTER reset all , can it solvE the CRAPPY picture prob ?
- will MASTER reset all DAMAGEs the phone software ( *heard somewhere in forum)

OR , shall i give my phone to the SERVICE guys.......or WHAT should i do U PPL suggest PLZ.------ kalyan

my W800i has a different menu, the first three icons from the top are t-music, t-zone, and entertainment.
should upgrading to the new firmware correct this to play now, internet, and entertainment?
just asking
thanks

no it will not, to get rid of the t-mobile branding you will have to de-brand with davinchi

I respect that point of view, and even follow it myself most of the time. However the issue with R1AA is really a show killer if you like to transfer files effortlessly between phone and computer. I hardly feel, for my own pattern of use, that better sound is worth upgrading to if I can no longer rely on hassle free file transfers. So until there is some resolution to this issue, I won't be updating from my current VERY stable and virtually bug free R1L. (on which I enjoy effortless and reliable file transfers). I see no reason to sacrifice the stability of my handset, which is ultimately more important to me than the enhancements offered in R1AA. My phone is a tool as much as it is a toy. I have other phones that I can play with, such as my K700 (which I want to convert to full infrared, including infrared led for night photography )

However, when the file transfer issue is fixed, I will certainly enjoy the better sound, better video quality, faster menu, faster zoom and rotations, longer lasting battery, ask once bluetooth permissions, and numerous other enhancements that come with R1N/R1AA and later.
