Not on SEUS, I saw it on SEuniverse.com's ftp server (in the sonyericsson_files directory) That is what DaVinci uses for it's updates. There were a BUNCH of them:
W810_R4ED001_FS_America2.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_Apac.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_Baltic.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_C_Asia.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_China.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_Europe2.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_Europe3.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_Europe4.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_Hong Kong.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_M_East_N_Afr.DVT
W810_R4ED001_FS_S_Asia_Levan.DVT
but no America_1 (which is what I was looking for) |

AMERICA1: American English, Canadian French, Latin American Spanish
AMERICA2: American English, Brazilian Portugese, Latin American Spanish
Not a huge deal but it's what I have installed currently so it would be easier to just update the firmware rather than update the region code AND the firmware. (if they don't match, SEUS and OTA updates won't work in the future) |

AAAH! Now I see, it's just the File System Firmware, not the Main Firmware. My bad. I wonder why they changed the format? It seemed a little confusing because the prior Firmware isn't listed like that. Thanks for the clarification. I was hoping to skip the MegaBass killer version if possible. |

My plearure spindizzy I will let all you guys know more!!
Am also adding one more thing that I have noticed which is the battery life has improved even more than the precious R4EA FW after reinstalling it. one more tip if you want the Mega ba ss punch more than other frequencies then listen to a volume level not more than 7 (ie dont exceed the volume bar to full or 7 1/2) you will notice that you get more punch of bass. |

What about the reading error, changing tracks in the Walkman?
(also had some problems with missing the first little bit of each song)
Has it been fixed??? |

@rhett
Thanks for that but how do I know which I have? All I know is my hansdset came from SE online. I'm in the US so I would assume North America would be America 1?
I've never updated but wouldn't mind a newer firmware if it keeps my handset functioning at the top of the pack. Love this phone way too much to even want to consider upgrading for at least another year or two. |

I second that. Battery life has improved much.
Specially while using java apps and games.
I played games and used java gprs apps on my phone for about 2 hrs today. Other than that i used bluetooth for file transfer for up to 30 mins and upto 5 calls and 30 mins of music. Still battery is at 75% at the end of the day.
Mega bass is not dead and it shows its effect at lower volumes as DV said.
My phone is charging normally in phone mode too.
The only drawback i see in the new firmware is that the music volume has come down some what. (Maybe its because my ear blew out after listening to music at full volume for long  )
It certainly looks bad for people like us but its for the better in the long run as we guys will have proper working years for listening to the better walkman phones comming up in future.
