I know that SEUS will update to my CDA but, what I meant is if I can CHECK for the files downloaded before it flashes them. That's why I asked if there is a pause between downloading and flashing where I would have to re-plug the phones, so I could go and check the files for their version. This is cause I don't want to go from R1L... to R1N... instead I'd like to go to R!A..
Easy question...

checking files to be downloaded before flashing? hhmm no SEUS version does that.. i think... cause its an update service.. meaning always fore... going forward or upward wutevah... meaning no downgrade.
the thing you are suggesting is like the one in Davinci or any other third party remote flasher servers. yea i guess its a good suggestion... just to let consumers make their own decision on what to do with their phones. atleast they have an option to go back just incase they wont love the newer versions available for them..
and then i guess SE would say... try our shops.. theyll give you that service... wot do you think?!

I believe you didn't quite get Dan_Akroyd's post.
The old SEUS I first downloaded the update files into a folder in de SEUS directory (on the local hard drive) before flashing.
If you opened the folder you could see (by means of decomposition of the filename) whet FW-version was going to be installed, even before flashing began (and thus you could interupt when wanted).
SEUS II probably still downloads before flashing (logically) but the destination folder is unknown (or the files are encrypted).

If you see me running...

and Dan also pointed out that if ever he wanted to downgrade... didnt he?
so i just answered that point... the question is pretty simple and i think i got that straight enuff...
so i thought he was suggesting sumthin...

you could downgrade with the old version by replacing the file it had downloaded withsome old ones you had saved yourself with a previous update just before the flashing sequence started.
With SEUSII there is no pause between downloading and flashing so the opertuanty to swap any files you find has gone.

Well... finally someone got me, I wasn't talking chinese here! 
I didn't imply to downgrade... in fact, I thought that swapping files as you said to downgrade didn't work... was that working in SEUS I?

1. I never swapped the files in SEUSI, I have just read that some people did this.
2 In SEUSII the files do not appear in the same folder that they used to or and named completley differently. I have not seen any posts by anyone claming to have found the downloaded files.

Thought I'd see if if R1AA008 was up for Orange UK W800's yet, got my hopes up when it downloaded an update. But, it turns out to have just reflashed R1NA005.
They sure are taking their sweet time with this one

I think FW files are stored as .CL files in folder \\Update Service\\db\\13740270\\blob_db\\data. These files are binary. |

I'm on Vodafone UK and have recently upgraded to R1AA008 from R1N035 and thought I'd post how I've found it.
1) Taking photos is much better. Used to press shutter and get sound and move phone and then get blurred picture. I don't get this now.
2) Video is better although not great.
3) Battery life is MUCH improved over R1N, used to drain like hell but much better now.
4) NO hissing in calls at all.
So in all all happy! Guess it might be cos it's Voda's approved release or I'm just lucky! |

Does anyone know when R1AA008 comes out for Orange_Gen on K750i?
If not, where could I find out from?

Same here..I updated via SEUS II-no problem-just 6 hours ago..it was my first update by myself,alone,with sweat and anxiety..without broadband connection-just internet cafe. Alhamdulillah,Thanks God! So far I love it..I heard that some phones were knocked out by SEUS II as the internet connection broke during update. That's terrible. I'm just lucky then..not an expert at all.. |

Ok i ahve one small question, i just got my HBH-600 2day and when ive tryed it it cuts out mid call, i know this is a known issue but i have been reading through the firmware updates and some of the previous ones include BT upgrades that the lastest FW doesnt include. Now saying as i went from an old (defualt FW that came with the phone) firmware to the newest does that mean all of the bt imporvements that were included have been missed by me.
So what im asking is if u miss an update but then get the next one do u get the features from the missed update or not ?
