I updated to R1BC002 Monday night and then had a problem yesterday. I was on a call for 25-30 minutes [sitting on my couch] and at one point the phone cut out on me. I was unable to get a call to go through and the person tried to call me right back 3 times but each time they went straight to voicemail. I had 3 or 4 out of 5 bars so I don't think it was a signal issue. I had to actually call back the person via a land-line to get through.
Some time later I made a call on the phone with no problem.
[edit] I haven't had the opportunity to make another long call yet but I am worried.
I have never seen this before, has anyone else?

I'd say more the fact that you were sitting on your couch.
@uink, I believe those gaps that you see in games are because the games is made to run at a specific screen ration (possibly designed primarily for Nokia screens, and not SE's). On earlier firmware’s the screen was filled with black, but I think as an improvement, SE decided to fill any gaps on the screen unoccupied by the game with your default background image, or background colour. This is more obvious when running a game at a minimal screen resolution.

Try it. If it succeeds then the answer is yes. If it fails than the answer is no. SORRY to sound like a prick but, if you read through this entire post you'll find so many stupid questions that could be self answered! What do people want? A magic answer from someone saying "yes there it is 'cause I said so". I'm surprised people don't seek confirmation that the sky is blue! I know, people will bag me for this, but please use just .00001% of your brains before you post stupid (and quite often repeated) questions. Just a little research - using the search option (or even Google) - and a little bit of common sense would answer half the repeated questions you see in these posts. For me, when I see someone submit a post stating that they have been successful upgrading a w800 to the latest F/W, then i'll give it a try rather than posting stupid questions asking other uninformed people if an update is available. Think about it, if you try and are advised by the SE update service that you have the current version, then the answer is - no update available for your phone. SIMPLE!!!!!! |

Two people by now, told me they updated their phones to R1BC002 succesfully with AMERICA_2 customization, but I tried many times without any success (SEUS says there's no update available)...why I can't update my phone!!!???
AMERICA_2 with CDA 102337/16 R6A

@alexl22
The customization has nothing to do with the upgrade, SEUS looks at your main firmware, EU1, EMEA6, etc.. The customization stays..
what MAIN firmware do you have? |

My main firmware is EU1, looking at this string:
prgCXC 125952_EU_1_CL

Successful R1BC002 FW update of my K750i yesterday.
I'm in Canada, on the Rogers network. I now have the same software info as new666, except for the identifier.
Instead of prgCXC125952_EU_1_CL, I have the Hong Kong version, prgCXC125955_HONG_KONG_CL
Everything seems to work just as before; I don't actually notice any difference with any of the issues previously mentioned in this thread. I haven't taken any pictures since the upgrade, so I can't speak to that, although the camera SW version is the same, so I don't expect any change there.
Just one more note: I also had that glitch where the phone wouldn't update. I was trying to update on a laptop where I previously updated the phone to R1AA008. The SEUS started up, updated itself, and lauched the starting phase, but I could never get by the main 6 step page where it says to turn off the phone, remove the SIM card, reload battery, etc.
I got around the problem by simply installing the SE software on another machine (Win 2k this time) and it worked fine. I expect I could have also got around the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling the USB driver, as I believe that is the only other possible point of failure in the process.
Anyway, I'm up to date. I also really wish there would have been a "flight mode" option added. But really, it makes sense that new firmware releases are restricted to bug fixes. It's the only way SE would even have a chance at ending the new FW creation process for any particular model...
