@rajprit007
> Hello Is there any new firmware out on SEUS newer to R1A008
No, not on SEUS. As always, look at the first post for the latest information. As you can see R1BA013 has been 'released' by Cruiser, but this is not available through SEUS and may never become an 'official' firmware.

The firmwares are already 'universal' in many ways. They are all based on the same code, but just with certain modules exchanged / disabled (e.g. Flight Mode or the Walkman media player)

This is exceptionally unlikely. The only difference between the K750 and W800, apart from the outward appearance, are the differences you outline. SE would have nothing to gain by making the two phones identical and would confuse the Walkman brand by doing so.

Hey. Would installing R1BA013 prevent me from updating with SEUS2 again ? |

Since R1BA013 beta is out I'd be inclined to believe that at least that one will reach the masses. |

~Mike
if this line of reasoning is to stand then i am puzzled as to why SE would include the PlaneMode function on the K790/K800 and the K610.
wouldn't it a testament to SE customer support if they showed loyalty to their current customers and made the Planemode functionality available on the k750i (what i use and LOVE) retroactively via a f/w upgrade?

Indeed, but perhaps, it's an incentive to upgrade.
I know the logic behind this might sound absurd, since there are already third party softwares to update like DaVinciTeam, SETOOL2, Cruiser, etc. However, when you compare the pain of having to update everytime with MONEY (for a better feature that the local firmware disabled) with a phone that's more powerful than it's predecessor in all capacity (and which has resolved most of what was in your wishlist), chances are, your temptations will overwhelm / provoke you into buying the upgrade.
Though a handful of us find this pain and hassle of updating with money (for the better feature) worth it, I am sure there is also an equal or above majority who support upgrading to a better model (3.2 Megapixels, Edge, 3G, WLAN, WiFi, etc support, better design, more space, more features with the previous issues resolved) - also a testament for SE that they are on the right track, and there is no need to look back at the bugs all the time - just resolving it in the next model will do since someone will buy it, if not you or me. |

This post can be viewed here.
Perhaps tion could provide more insight into this email from SE?
@z3ky, This news of a new firmware is great news (probably an official release of R1BA013?). Are you (or indeed anyone else) able to shed some more light on what this firmware may entail? The forum that you link to is in a language that I am not so hot at!! |

I agree that the K800 looks a good phone BUT after the FW for the K750 has caused so many problems and disappointment I will not be buying another SE phone whilst Ericsson write the FW.
I am waiting on the N80 since this has S60 OS which is stable.
I must admit I read the spec for the K800 and every few seconds thought 'that sounds good BUT the software won't work'.
