Just had a restart when browsing esato(!) with the built-in browser. This FW seems unstable. Battery time seems really bad. Full charge this morning and down to 20% tonight. I haven't taken a single picture.. |

Tried Clarity, and know what?
The reason why the white background was retained is because the "Media_background" color is set at 0xFFFFFF (white)
All themes with "Media_landscape_background_image" are affected.
And the restarts? I spent the whole night and gone crazy because of it. I left it then out of frustration and when I woke up, it did a Set-up wizard.
Maybe the start-ups are part of the installation. |

All of you guys with the restarts: Try shutting the phone down and removing the battery for 30 secs. I had a couple of weird restarts after upgrading to 038, I got scared and removed the battery. Its been almost a month and not one restart. Maybe it will help, maybe not, but its worth a try. Also, try doing a master reset if you have not done so after the new upgrade. |

From what I understand you don't lose any functionality, just a menu disappears. Still vibrates to touch and HSPDA is still available. If you are scared to lose those menus then just trying shutting down then removing the bat for 30 secs. This clears all the memory. |

Weird though. I did not do Master reset but the HSDPA menu really disappeared. (I couldn't do MR coz the phone restarts every so often last night) |

*We are talking here about camera in quality aspect and you trying to teach photography art in terms of scene and composition.In vain.No one can teach art in terms of ISO and "great shot",coz you never know which one of your shots will be "great".
1. dudes were not satisfied with posted images quality that's why i wrote about ISO and influence on details, this isn't teaching but normal explanation of visible problem for someone who don't know nothing about things like that
2. scene and composition. once again, 1886 asked me about "good settings" that's why i wrote about them. this wasn't manual to achieve good shot, you didn't understand that
3. in vain. yeah, 1886 wrote "i don't understand anything", that was in vain
4. "great shot" is just metaphor. you cannot predict "great" situations but you can try to take the best you can if you have chance and if you want to. if your photo target is motionless you can try various compositions, angles, distances etc. you exactly know what i mean. of course most people don't pay attention on things like that. you can take typical pity photo of street or the lake/sea landscape with leant horizon line and then say "i don't like it" but what's the problem? camera quality, picture idea or poor realization?
5. overall K850 is good cameraphone, as every other phone have advantages and disadvantages in many aspects. most people don't care about picture 'idea quality' then why they complain on 'image quality'? isn't this paradoxical? in extreme situations they need superb quality for very weak photos. for me this is a bit funny but not a problem, your phone - your decisions, this is free world (well, not everywhere)
6. we are talking about quality but term "quality" have second meaning. you can show 2 pics to single person and then ask about quality. on first pic will be street in cloudy day and on the second pic will be landscape with flowers in full sunshine. rich colors are often equated to good quality. that was very simple example. quality for most people is very subjective term and there is no need to discuss about that. you can look at shots posted by 1886 - K850 photo is sharp, colors are dull because of scenery and weather, overexposed sky is nothing new and it's typical. K800 photos are sharp too but they have more colors, interesting objects. this doesn't mean that K800 has better quality only because i like K800 photos more than K850 photo. this is what i'm trying to say: measuring quality through interestingness is insane

Not had any restarts. However one thing i can say is that the battery is worse than when i was using r1da038. I not get less than 2 days with my usage. I used to get 2+ before.
