It was at 100% before I started the upgrade. If I plug it in to the mains to charge now nothing happens. There is no display - zippo!

@ DJKarlos2006

Looks like you killed ur phone by unplugging it while u were updating, You will need to take it to an SE service center and get it flashed there, or you can try using Davinci as i belive u can restore dead phones using that (Read first post for links etc), SEUSII can not help you with dead phones.

I had the chance to test two w800s, one with R1AA008 and one with R1L002. I used the same memory card and the same mp3 songs in testing. The R1AA008 phone had the terrible hissing sound, the R1L002 – nothing! It is no noticeable noise when using the headphones that comes with w800 (same headphone used for testing on both phones). It is, however, some constant low background noise when the WALKMAN is turned on, using other headphones (Creative) on R1L002. Doesn’t really matter for me, I’m very satisfied with the w800 in-ear-phones.

I, off course, own the terrible R1AA008 phone. How do I downgrade? Will a SE service center downgrade? Can I use http://www.davinciteam.com ?

you could try upgrading to R1BC. My R1BC doesn't hiss.

@yngvewb:
Yes, you can downgrade using Davinci Team service.
Hissing noise is a well knowm problem with the w800i present in all firmwares after R1L002. You must choose between no hissing noise and missing the improvements of later firmwares (ie increased volume & improvements in photo and video quality)

As I said in my original post the SEUS had gone back to the main menu so it looked like it had failed way before I unplugged it.

I was trying to find a SE Service Centre. There were no details on the SE contacts page. WHere can I find the nearest SE centre?

Just upgraded my R1L002 to R1B002... I must say I freaked out first because the SEUS abrouptly ended, I wasn't looking, and it went back to the main screen, saying "Start", "Exit"... to update. I let the phone there for 5 minutes aprox., exited SEUS...

It took some second to start the phone cause the firmware I suppose was installing. It booted and the info was that it updated OK! So, it's working pretty good right now.

The hiss sound isn't very loud, the mega bass feature is usable at all now, the speaker and earphone is louder, the contrast is greatly improved, pictures are taken as the shutter sound, menus are faster... and, much appreciated, the Bluetooth permissions are OK! Max_Wedge... It's working for me, I can send files and delete them without prompting in the phone... it's great.

One thing I noticed with the new firmware is that everything has speeded up. The menus are smoother now. However there is one minor bug I noticed and that is when I am transferring multiple photos via Bluetooth from my phone to my pc.

Normally I would go and use MARK to select multiple photos in my phone and then select SEND to my Bluetooth device and the phone would normally send the photos I selected one by one to my computer.

Now, even after I have selected multiple photos and send them via bluetooth - I noticed that the last photo I selected is sent only. The progress bar on the phone would say sending photos but only one photo is sent!

In order for me to send multiple photos, I have to manually send them one a time via bluetooth. When I use infrared, there is nothing wrong and I ma able to send all the photos. It is only in bluetooth mode that it would do this. Bummer since I prefer to use bluetooth over IR and cable.

You could go and browse directly the memory card from your PC and drag&drop them to wherever you want...
