i think you're right SE thinks the w800 is bug free or maybe stable enough that they don't think another update is prudent. i have a w800 i bought with R1AA to be frank since i had it, i did not experience any of the known bugs attached to that firmware. it was ok and fine untill a month ago after so many updates release, i felt its time for a change so i decided to upgrade the firmware with SEUS. before doing so, i browsed this forum thoroughly and saw the comments many esatonians were contributing. i asked for advice and i could remember one esatonian telling me "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Looking less on these words, i went ahead with the update. i was at the final stage in my update when unfurtunately for me i had a break down in the internet connection. I think it because of this i got an error message on SEUS. It says i should detatch my usb cable, attach it again and try again. i did this and after some time i had a message by SEUS saying my phone has the current software. after all this, then the real problem sets in! My w800 refused to power on! i did everythin i could nothing. removed the battery for 2-4hrs as one esatonian told me, held the 'c' and power button simultaneously as another esatonian told me, deleting the DB folder in SEUS and try downloading and installing again; STILL NOTHING! There was no how i could find the help i needed in this forum or anywhere. i had to spend about 50GBP to send to a repair shop in UK to fix it.
See it gets really frustrating when ur favourite phone screw up. No amount of update will make k750/w800 flawless. as long as does most of all ur needs at ease, keep it that way not until u are sure its completely safe. don't rush in updating just yet after a firmware release. wait till u've got enough comments from other users who just can't wait. unless you're are the daredevil kind.
SE phones(k750/w800) are good phones but i think no amount of update will make them bug free |

Well i think W800 last firmware is OK, except that it doesnt support M4a or AAC tags, and for a Music phone thats something very important, i have all my songs in AAC so i'd like my phone to support this, so a little update, just fixing that would be very nice, cause on previous firmwares M4A or AAc were supported, it was step back for SE. I need a new update for my w800! |

Everyone have that problem that when you connect your W800 to the USB port in your PC, it will NOT charge it for full !! you will get maximum 92% of charge ..
I had a problem last week, the phone restarted itself twice, i did a master reset and reupdated the phone through SEUS .. now it works fine . |

Is there any way to update to R1BC only, and not R1CA? I want to do this because it seems that the concencus is that R1BC produces better still images (I currently have R1AA). Thanks! |
