I got 2 mc's upgraded at sony-ericsson north edsa free of charge yesterday. The latest version is r7a013 which comes in two language packs, Chinese (the one with inconsistent font sizes) and Bahasa (the one without wuziqi).

I just wanted the users to know that its free of charge (even non-warranty units) and the employees were as polite as the people at smartnet and semicon sm manila.

Good day! [addsig]

Petition and maybe we will have JAVA on the next release (was told to me by SE developers)!
I'm not joking! You could ask the SE developers by yourself!

http://www.petitiononline.com/8520/petition.html

Petition people, if you want JAVA! It's one of the last chances cause SE will stop to make big imporovements in the firmware of the T68i after the next release, cause they will focus their developement on the newer phones (was also told to me by SE developers).

JAVA - please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cause it's not hard to port on it. Ask yourself why they also ported the support for the MCA-25 to this "outdated" phone in R6?

... you see: they are still developing ...

I don't know, what the SE managers think, but if they will do it we all should say thanks!

Java would be nice but the phone's memory will still be the same. If we could download games then the phone won't be left with much memory for anything else. Think it would be more practical to wait for the t610 with its 2mb memory. Besides, and correct me if i'm wrong but isn't the next upgrade R6B which still doesn't have those features?

@dethany Turn it on and off if that doesn't work do a hard reset. If that still doesn't work do a master reset after backing up your data. If all else fails, have your unit reflashed, you probably had a faulty upgrade

Has anybody had any problems when using HBH-20 or any other BT headsets? I had SE in the US upgrade my fw to R7 and the phone worked well till a few days ago whenever I end a call with my headset the BT indicator on the is indicating that the headset and phone is engaged but in the headset the call is terminated. And the only way to get the indicator to go back to standby is to off/on the power. I sent the phone back to SE and thay said they'll get it fixed.We shall see.
