http://www.gsmteknik.se did it for me. I guess before mentioned software could do it as well, but thats nothing I'd consider for the average Joe..

Did you send the phone away to this company or something else? Is the camera quality back to being good in this firmware? and is there an option for english?

Thanks

@Brady

They can accept phones by mail. The cam seems fine. I didn't see any degradation in quality from in R1J and have not been able to test R1K (W800i) enough yet.

Yes, there is an english language option.

@Gud

Can you check the camera revision? press >*<<*<* then goto service info then software info to find out the version. > = right on the joystick, < = left.

The reason I ask is because they have severely reduced the camera quality on R1J and R1L from the R1A rev. Rev on R1A is 3.8, and on R1J and R1L it is 4.4. 3.8 had about 200k bitrate, where as they other revisions had 60-70k bitrate.

Thanks

Can someone please post the way to do this that involves.

A free program
A few clicks
A clear list of problems faced

Just like a mini tutorial for the average fool like myself

No it isn't that easy... For the same reason that one can not upgrade firmware in the K750i in general without using SE's update service (i.e. no file to emailed around).

Is this as simple as the T68m -> T68i conversion?

Sure, as soon as you post a free program for me that will upgrade my Mini Cooper S to a Turbo Charged, NOS Injected, Flame Shooting Beast Of Death!!!
The upgrade has to only take 10 minutes and I only have a screwdriver, nothing else, so make it easy for car newbies like myself!

@everyone: It seems that SE are emailing Unlocking/Flashing shops offering this service, threatening legal action if they don't stop offering it. An understandable move - As another posted pointed out, flashing your phone isn't illegal but having in your posession flash files belonging to SE is.

Anyone know any british sites that are doing the upgrade to W800 firmware? all I've seen so far are swedish ones.
